I Can't Believe It... I started my journey in Opuss just a few days ago, thinking it was a perfect place for me to write and read... But suddenly, I learned that It will be no more??? I can't understand what's happening and I'm really sad about it. I just got here and before I can meet 3 writers like me, it's gone? Please someone explain what's going on please, for i'm a new friend here and I can't bear to see those goodbye posts from everyone :'(
The Guardian "What are you gonna name him, Johnny?" "Mommy, it's silly." Johnny looked at the teddy bear in his hands. His fur color was cream and was very soft. His blue button eyes were looking at Johhny. His inner ears, palms of his hands, under his feet and around his mouth was reddish brown. His blue clothing was in match with his eyes and has a big pocket with a zipper on his stomach. His giant pocket was colored with orange and green stripes. Johnny touched the bears brown plastic nose with his short nails. "I mean... He doesn't have a magic sword. He can't breath fire either! How is he going to protect me when I'm sleeping?" Johnnys mother smiled while looking at his 4 years old son, "Then why do you want him?" Jonny frowned, "You know why, mom! My best friend Henry told me that his teddy bear protects him from the scary monsters hiding in the dark!" "I told you Johnny, there are no monsters in your room. They were just clothes! Your eyes deceive you when its dark. It happens to everyone!" Johnny turned his back to his mom. He didn't know why his mother doesn't believe in what he says. He signed and looked at the teddy bears blue eyes. "I want him mommy." His mother smiled. They were in the toy shop like 30 minutes or more, looking for a teddy bear. "Then, whats his name?" Johnny pulled the bears right ear. He surely didn't like the teddy bear he's gonna buy. "I'm gonna call him The Guardian." :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: He sat The Guardian on his table and put his favourite toys in front of The Guardian. "Look Guardian, you're new here and you have to learn the rules. You're not gonna get mad at me if I don't play with you 'cause I always play with my favourite toys! I want you to meet them." He pointed one of his toys to Guardian, "Look, his name is Mister Laser, this is Princess Star, Nightblade, Gary Mission, Lord Strassworth and lastly and my favourite, Hellbender." He was smiling when he introduced his favourites. Everyone of them were fighters with super powers and weapons. They were brand new, colorful, electronic and everyone of them had a cartoon about them. Johnny looked at Guardian and frowned. Guardian was boring, silly and looking very old. He didn't like him at all. "Meeting is over, everyone!" He grabbed his favourite toys and left the Guardian at his empty room. ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: He held Guardian tightly. He was checking everycorner of his room but there were no monsters... Yet. "Goodnight honey." "Goodnight mommy." His mother turned the lights off and clised the door behind her. "Okay, Guardian. It's your turn now. Guard me when I'm sleeping." He checked his room again and closed his eyes. He doesn't like The Guardian but he was trusting him somehow. Johnny were right. There were monsters coming out of darkness of his room, trying to scare him. After he slept, mosters were leaving their hiding place and making him see nightmares. Whenever he wakes up from his nightmares at night, he was seeing those shadowy monsters but couldn't do anything but scream 'till his mother came and turned up the lights. It was horibble to sleep everyday and he couldn't sleep well because of this. Monsters were still coming if he sleeps with his parents or stayed in his friends houses. Some of his friends told him that they see the monsters too but the majority of his friends didn't believe in him. The teddy bear, The Guardian, was his only hope. Fortunately he made the right choice. After he slept, the monsters started to come out. They came nearer and nearer till they saw the teddy bear in Johnnys arms. "Boss, what are we gonna do? He bought one!" One of the big monsters came nearer Johnny and glanced at the teddy bear. "He looks silly. I don't he's one of them, don't mind him, attack!" When they took one step closer to the child, The Guardian started shining. "He's one of them! Retreat!" A ray of light came out from the teddy bear and fell right in front of the monsters. A human figure started to shape from the light. "I'm looking silly? I wouldn't love to look like you." Human shaped appeared before them was clear now. He had cream hair and blue eyes just like the Guardian. He looked like he's in the age of 24. He had a fanny pack colored with orange and green stripes, hung on his hips. He had blue clothes and a blue bandana around this forehead. "My name is The Guardian and I'm here to protect little Johnny from your filthy hands." Boss of the shadow monsters looked at Guardians left cheek. There was a black tattoo of a teddy bear head and a giant bear claw. There was a black giant bear claw tattoo on his necks left side too. "So, you're a bear type plush toy." Boss of the monsters looked to the others, "Stay away from his hands. Bear types are not that strong." Guardian smiled, "Are not that strong? Well, I'm not a lion type, that's sure but I don't recommend to underestimate me." Guardians right hand turned into a giant black claw. "I won't go easy on you guys." He slashed three of them with his claw while smiling. ::::::::::::::::::::::: After he destroyed them, he kneeled down and pet Johnny's head with his hands. "I know you hate me but you can trust me little one. It's my duty to guard and care for you from the things invisible to your parents..." Guardian checked the dark corners of Johnnys room. There were no monsters left. "Do you want to know where those come from, little fella? Those monsters comprise from your parents worries and fears. They come to hunt you because you are weak and not mature yet to defeat them." He smiled at Johhny. "That's why I'm here Johnny. I won't let them hurt you again. I will overcome your fears. Just let me stay near you." ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: When Johhny woke up, the shining rays of sun was already on his face. He straight himself up and looked at his surroundings. He wasn't woken up by the monsters last night. "Guardian?" He searched his sheets for him but Guardian was not there! He saw him when he got up from the bed. Guardian was sitting on the floor looking at the room. He was turned into a teddy bear again. Johnny amazement lasted for a second and he ran to Guardian. He hugged him tightly, "Thank you! Thank you Guardian! I knew you're gonna protect me!" His door is opened, "Good morning honey!" "Mommy mommy! You won't beliee what happened!" He left the Guardian on the floor and ran to his mothers arms, "What happened?" "Guardian guarded me all night long! He's alive mom, he's alive, I swear!" After Johhny and his mom left the room, Guardian was lying on the floor, looking at the door. Waiting for Johnny to return.
14th Joker "Gentelman, I know how hard it is for you to forget the death of our precious 13th but we have to move on. We have a new leader of Viancilio Family to protect and obey. We lost the fourth successor from the 14th generation candidates last Thursday. We have to be careful with the election of the 14th leader and for us to be able to find a new leader, we have to investigate all the succesor candidates ... Please be kind to fifth succesor candidate, William Thornington." As Mister Quintinuo, the leader of the elders, finished his speech; the doors of the conferans hall opened wide. There was one of the best agents of the family, Caleb Thorie, standing in front of the door. "Mister Quintinuo! We have an emergency!" "Stand calm, child. What is wrong?" Caleb Thorie gulped and took a deep breath, "We lost the fifth candidate." Mister Quintinuos eyes opened wide when he heard his words. "What do you mean you lost him?!" "He was walking towards here and suddenly he collapsed! He had died in an instant and there were no bullet marks, not a drop of blood, just his cold white corpse. We are guessing from the evidence we've found that the killer of William Thornington is currently on his way to kill the sixth successor candidate. Shall we go and take him here before he's killed?" Mister Quintinuo took a deep breath. His worst nightmare had come to #life. The angel of death was awake. "Caleb, call the group Eleven. Tell them that every one of them will go and find one of the successor candidates and bring them here without a scratch!" Caleb was terrified of this idea. Group Eleven was formed from the best assasins he'd ever seen and they were not suited for a job like protecting a possible future boss of themselves. However he didn't say anything to Mister Quintinuo. "Of course sir, immediately!" "Wait, Caleb. I have anither mission for you..." Caleb Thorie raised his eyebrows. He couldn't understand why he took another mission while the family is in a crisis. "You will go and find the Joker... You will go to the last successor, Josie Viancilio." Caleb looked at Mister Quintinuos eyes in terror. "Finding the Joker?! ... Sir, are you sure? You know how dangerous the Joker is." Mister Quintinuo nodded. "The time has come Caleb. We will need the Joker, no matter how terrifying joker can be. Leave immediately Caleb, our time is short." Caleb bowed his head. The family was surely in a crisis of all times. ::::::::: Was he too late? The real and rightful successor of the Viancilio Family was the bearers of the surname Viancilio thus, the leaders were never chosen from the real Viancilio family for not to danger them. The real Viancilio family was guarded behind the shadows. The surname of Viancilio was scattered through the world and there were hundreds of people with the surname of Viancilio. Finding the real successor, the Joker, was impossible. Yet how this man was able to find the Joker? Why was the Joker, Josie Viancilio, been struggling in the armed mans hands? "Don't move or girl die!" The man was not a native speaker and could not speak properly. He put the gun in his hands to the head of Josie Viancilio while holding her whole with his arm. Caleb was both confused and angry. "You're gonna kill her either way! Let go of Miss Viancilio right now!" Caleb raised his gun to the mans head. When his glance catched the girls eyes, he knew he made a mistake by looking at her eyes. Her watery golden eyes were shining like a jewellery in the dark room. Although most of her face was covered with a black tape, her skin was looking so soft and smooth that Caleb almost lost himself while looking at her face. Her body was looking so small and fragile that she could shatter like a crystal vase at any moment in the hands of the man. Her delicate body was making the situation look more dangerous than it really is. Her brown hair was in tones of chocolate and caramel and was reaching at the end of her short white nightgown like an aromatic vapor of coffee. Her bare white legs were shining with the little moonlight coming from the window. "Mmmmm!" Her screaming voice returned Caleb to his senses. Just before Caleb could reach the special silver weapon, Josie got out from the mans arm and fell flat on her face. "You bitch! Don't move or you d-" A loud and high toned voice surrounded the room. When Caleb raised his hands to cover his ears, he was already on his knees. He felt a warm liquid reached his knees, he knew what it was, how could he forgot the smell of blood? He wondered whom this blood belonged to. When he opened his eyes for the last time, he saw Josies deep black eyes looking to him with a killing intent. Just before he lost his consciousness, he learned that the Joker wasn't a defenceless little girl...
AIDEN CODE "Please... please don't kill me!..." Those were the words I've always heard when I'm doing my job. It was boring to see everyone begging infront of you, down on their knees, crying like a stupid child. Death was a hard truth for anyone to swallow but people think that if they beg for their #life or do something like that, they would continue living as they are now. Average people never think that they could die before they got old but the truth is hundreds of people die everyday because of stupid things. Anyone can die anytime without a reasonable cause, so why wouldn't be you? I looked at my preys watery eyes. He was in his mid-forties and he was looking to my black eyes. He was crying like crazy since I came into his room and I was starting to get bored of all this. If you are a hit man or an assassin you would want to see unexpected things from your prey. You would want to get excited and have fun of your prey. Just seeing they cry and beg is not very fun, you know. Some of my old preys were fun and I didn't kill some of them because I had some fun! I want to talk with my preys and hear some jokes. I'm a different one. Being a hit man is very fun for me, I get to know different people. People show their real colors before they die so you can talk with the souls of your prey, see their hearts and hear their dreams. They share their secrets with you and sacrifice everything to stay alive. " Please, I'm begging you... I have kids!" I grinned while looking at him. "You think I didn't investigate before making you my prey? You don't even have a wife, you dirty liar." Shocked by my answer he started trembling with fear, tears fell from his eyes again and he started to breath heavily and choke. I looked at his desperate attempt to look pitiful. He was still trying to make me feel bad and have mercy for him, as I said before, he was boring. I pointed my gun to his head and aimed. "Wait, wait! No! I'll pay you!" It was starting to get intersting so I aimed at his heart. "I'll pay you the double they paid you not to kill me!" "Double?" "Triple, triple! No! Five times the money they paid!" I raised my gun and leaned it on my shoulder. I smiled at him. "Five times, huh?" He smiled. His hope of living started to rise and he put his everyday mask to his face. "Yes, yes! Five times! I'll pay you! Just don't kill me!" I smiled, if we were talking about money, it will surely be interesting. I raised my eyebrows, "Five times... So that makes 5 million dollars..." He opened his eyes wide open, "Five million? They paid you one million to kill me?" I aimed my gun to his head again, "Your head doesn't cost five million dollars? You see your #life that much small?" He started trembling again, "But- but I don't have five million dolars!" "Then die right here, so I can go and take the rest of my money. I'm bored with you already." He raised his hands with terror, "Okay, okay! I'll pay you five million dollars! I promise! I'll pay you your five million dollars Tuesday, I'll have to borrow money from-" The bullet got out from my gun silently and passed right through my preys left ear. He looked at me with still eyes and just stood there wondering what happened. "Tuesday? Am I looking like an idiot? I want my money right now!" He started trembling again and asked with his shaky voice, "But I can't find five million right now! I need to borrow money and-" I turned my back at him and started walk to his wooden desk. We were at his office and surrounded by his bodyguards corpses. I sat to his black leather chair and put my boots to his expensive desk. I put my hands at the back of my head and looked at him. "Okay, I'll be generous. You have a hour to give me my money while I have a little nap here. Don't try anything stupid, you'll be dead in a moment." I closed my eyes and slept there... :::::: I opened my eyes after a hour and a half and checked my surroundings. I was stiil at his office and my gun was still in my hand. My prey wasn't in the office anymore as I guessed. "Well, I still have a prey to hunt." When I got up from the chair I noticed a suitcase on the floor. There was exactly five million dolars in the suitcase. I smiled, "Well, he saved his ass..." I took the suitcase and looked at his office. He was surely rich, buying gold vases for his office and so. When I heard the police sirens, I raised my eyebrows and went to the window. There was eight police cars out there and they had taken my car too. When I saw my prey with the police, i got mad and opened the window with fury. "What the fuck are you doing, man?!!" The police and my prey looked at me with shocked eyes. I was shouting from 12th floor and I was looking like an idiot, I know. One of the polices took an megaphone and shouted back at me, "Are you Aiden Code, the killer of 35 men and 12 woman?" I took a deep breath and put my hands at the back of my head. "No, I am Queen Elizabeth and I'm currently waiting for my car to be released. Could you let go of my car, my gorgeous english horses started to get scared of you filthy policeman?" Then I turned to my prey and continued shouting at him. "And what the hell you're doing?! I said don't do anything stupid, didn't I? Leaving five million dolars here for me to leave you alive and then calling the police to capture a hitman like me is obiously a stupid thing to do!!" The police was statting to get angry to me and started shouting from the megaphone again, "Aiden Code, we are here to arrest you for killing! Surrender or we'll have to use force!" I held the windowsill and shouted back to the policeman, "I told you that I'm the fucking queen of England, don't you dare to insult me Mister fatty!" Policeman raised his eyebrows while questioning exactly when I lost my mind. It was fun to play the insane. "And may ask you exactly how are you gonna catch me with these 11 floors between us?" Policeman raised the megaphone in his hands and started talking calmly. "We have man up there and they are ready to catch you in any moment. Surrender and you may have our mercy." I started laughing like a retard and punching the windowsill, "Right... How many man did you sent? Five, seven? Do you think you can catch me with mortal humans?" Policeman looked confused again, the roles I've been playing was sure fun. "The man we sent right behind that door is from CIA. You are finished Mister Code!" I raised my eyebrows while smiling, "Oh, my... Please Henry do not joke with me... Are you serious, my dear?" I put out my insane masks and showed my true face while grimming like the devil I am, "Then I'll have some fuckin' fun..." I colsed the window and walked through the door. I took a deep breath to calm myself and opened the door with my kick. ::::: "Aiden's talking!" The man behind my cellphone chuckled, "Your voice sounded like you're having fun, huh Aiden?" I smiled, "Well, I found some man from CIA... It's really fun to play with those people, you should try some time!" Man laughed while I knocked down the last CIA agent in front of me, "I wanted to know whether you finished the job, Aiden?" "He gave me five million..." Man became quiet, "You're kidding me..." "Nope, no kidding, I got the money. Don't worry boss, I'm still gonna kill him." He sounded relieved, "Oh, how so?" I laughed while slowly opening the window a little. "He called the police after he gave me the money. He wasn't very smart." I placed my gun and aimed for my prey from the open window. "Do you still want me to kill this dumb? "I'm waiting for your arrival Aiden." He ended the call. I put my cell to my pocket and opened the window fully. "Oh, Mister Fatty?" The same police man turned at me with shocked eyes. "You? How?..." "Killed the man you sent. I told you not to insult the queen, Henry..." I turned to my prey, "Now, I'm bored again! I have to kill you man, I'm sorry. You shouldn't cal the police, I wasted my precious bullets." I aimed my gun and pulled the trigger before police could do anything. My prey was shot from his head. He was dead. "Well, time to go home!"
