————–Zootopia Special: Fright Night————–

Nick wakes up after getting tranquilized. He’s surprised that he woke up inside the police car. He was cuffed at the back. Outside was dark probably night time and what appears to be the Rainforest District, and the car was parked in front of a large decrepit mansion overgrown by vines. Nick felt his head ache and heard a familiar voice.

Judy: “Are you ok now Nick?”

Nick sees the scarlet eyes of the vampire rabbit on the driver’s seat.

Nick: “Ok carrots what did you do?”

Judy: “What I just placed you back there.”

Nick: “Cuffed? So you bit me!? Am I gonna turn into a vampire!?”

Judy: “Nick calm down.”

Nick: “I can’t calm down!! I do not wanna live as a vampire!!”

Judy: “NICK!! CALM DOWN OR I’LL TAZER YOU!!!”

Nick sat down checking his neck for any bite marks. 

Bogo: “Is he finally awake?”

Nick looks over the windshield and see a buffalo on fire. It was Bogo but on fire!

Judy: “Yeah he’s up but I think the hallucinogenic is still in affect.”

Nick: “Hallucinogenic?”

Judy: “You don’t remember getting gassed?”

Judy explains that someone was creating hallucinogenics or fear toxins and intoxicated other animals. They were tasked today to arrest the criminal inside the building where he was holding up. The guy calls himself Scarecrow, even though it was just an animal in a costume. They did manage to get him but not after getting gassed. Alex and Nick were the only ones affected since their gas mask became faulty. 

Nick: “Ok I remember now.”

Judy: “So you see me as a vampire?”

Nick: “Yeah and chief as a flaming buffalo. So um, can you un-cuff me? it’s starting to get uncomfortable back here.”

Bogo: “Well as long as you can tell that it’s just the hallucinogenic making everything appear different then you’ll be fine to walk out. Try anything and I’ll put you back here.”

Nick: “Yeah, its just that everyone outside seems to appear…different.”

He looks outside the window and sees that everyone are monsters. That is some powerful hallucinogenic. Well as long as Nick doesn’t freak out or run away then its fine. He just need to keep his cool. Then a whistling wolf with a very large set of teeth came to greet them.

Alex: “Hey Nick you finally better?”

Nick: “Uh by the way I see you right now? No, no I’m not.”

Alex: “Well at least you’re not freaking out like Geno over there.”

Alex pointed out at the ambulance parked out where Geno is lying strapped on the cart, yelling out : “ALL OF YOU ARE ALIENS!! THE INVASION HAS BEGUN!! SOMEONE HELP!!”. They placed a nuzzle on his mouth to prevent him from bitting and screaming. Nick seriously doesn’t want that to happen to him.

Alex: “Man, I hope my partner is going to be ok.”

Judy: “Don’t worry, maybe he’ll snap out of it tomorrow.”

Alex: “I hope so.”

Nick: “I’m just glad I’m not in the same position as him right now.”

Judy: “That’s rude! Say sorry!”

Nick: “Ah! Sorry Alex!”

Alex: “Nah its ok I don’t want to be in the same position as him either. Hey how about this? Let’s record him yelling stuff and when he snaps out of it, we’ll show him the video.”

Nick: “You are not that least bit concerned about your partner huh?”

Alex: “As long as he’s kicking and screaming then he’s fine.”

They both laughed at their antics. Judy frowned on how Alex treats his partner. 

Nick: “So where is our Scarecrow?”

Bogo: “He just got arrested, before you and Alex started to go nuts.”

Judy: “You ran like crazy inside spouting strange things, while I was trying to dart you.”

Alex: “Same here, I was looking for Geno that entire time.”

Judy: “We had an ambulance called in after we got the both of you.”

Nick: “So why was I in the back of the car?”

Judy: “I was planning to take you to the hospital but I wondered if putting you to sleep was enough to get you back to normal.”

Nick: “Well I’m not one hundred percent alright, I’m still seeing things but I guess I can manage.”

Bogo: “Judy take your partner to the hospital, Alex stick with Geno. As for the time being I’m going back to the station.”

Nick: “Oh yeah, why did you trip me?”

Judy: “What do you mean?”

Nick: “You tripped me back there when I was running, what gives?”

Judy: “Oh that, you ran into a small coat rack and you rolled on the floor face planting on the wall then I rushed in and asked if your nose broke.”

Nick doesn’t know whether or not he should believe her, but given the situation there’s no way to prove it.

Nick: “And that thing when you made an adorable face?”

Judy: “I thought I could get you to come with me if did that.”

Nick: “After asking me to drink my blood?”

Judy: “Well you called me a vampire bunny, I thought I should play along and make myself look cute as a vampire.”

Nick: “One thing, vampires don’t do that.”

Judy: “Yeah they do.”

Nick: “You clearly need to watch some horror movies with me.”

Judy: “Uh no.”

—————————–

Everyone left the scene. Judy followed the ambulance in front, she notices Nick looking really terrible. 

Judy: “Are you ok Nick?”

Nick: “Well……….no.”

Judy: “Do you need something?”

Nick: “……..no.”

Judy: “Do I scare you?”

Nick: “What? No”

Judy: “Oh is it you’re afraid of vampires Nick?”

Nick: “Ha no. I’m just having a massive headache right now. And besides, you look rather cute with those red eyes.”

Judy: “Red eyes? Nick my eyes are purple.”

Nick: “I know, but with the hallucinogenic everything looks different.”

Judy: “So what can you see?”

Nick: “That everyone is a monster.”

Judy: “No I meant me.”

Nick: “Oh well for one you have red eyes, long eyelashes, and some fangs peaking out of you lips. You look quite the seductress.”

Judy blushed on his remark and decided to play it off, “Well at least for today I’ve become a predator, and I will drink your blood muhahahahahaha.”

Nick: “Hahaha, don’t push your luck cottontailand keep an eye on the road.”

Judy: “So to you I’m now a predator, it feels very strange but I kinda like the idea now. Fear me for I’am the vampire bunny muhahahaha!” Judy playfully waving her hand on Nick’s shoulder as he tries to wave it off.

Nick: “Hehe, you may have turned into a predator my sweet cottontail but remember that you are still my prey.”

Nick looked at Judy with a scary smile. Judy got creeped out.

Nick: “Ha! You should look at your face!”

Judy: “Don’t scare me like that!” She hits him on the shoulder.

Nick: “Keep an eye on the road then!”

Judy continues to drive, but she didn’t want the conversation to end.

Judy: “Were close to the hospital.”

Nick: “Great, I don’t want to keep seeing this spectacle all the time. Well except you, I kinda like seeing you as vampire.”

Judy: “If I ever do become one, then I’ll get you first.”

Nick: “Fine by me. I let you drink my blood if you ever need to, just don’t turn me into one.”

Judy: “I don’t think that’s how it works.”

Nick: “Then you should watch some horror movies with me then.”

Judy: “Again, no.”

Nick: “Haha, if you ever got gassed a few hours ago, I don’t think you’ll last seeing what I’m seeing.”

Judy: “So outside the window, you can see everyone as monsters?”

Nick: “Yeah……and I can also see myself on the reflection.”

Judy: “What do you see? And by that I mean your reflection?”

Nick: “I don’t think you want to know.”

Judy pulls up at the parking lot and got inside the hospital with Alex and Geno who is still strapped in struggling to get free. The nurses told the other two to go to another section of the hall. While Nick and Judy went into the opposite side. Heading into one of the empty rooms.

The doctor arrived and checked on Nick. She appeared something horrible to Nick’s eyes since he’s making a disgusted face. What could he be seeing the doctor as? She said the hallucinogenic will wear off in a couple of hours so there is no need to worry. 

Judy: “Well I’m glad there’s no bad side effect.”

Nick: “Me too.”

Judy: “I’ll be out and get us something to eat ok?”

Nick: “Sure, I’ll just wait here.”

Judy approached him and gave him a hug, “I’m glad you’re ok.”

Nick: “Thanks Judy.”

Judy leaves the room while Nick is in bed staring at the window seeing all kinds of strange things. Then his eyes adjusted looking at his reflection by the window. 

Nick: “How ironic, I became the thing I was scared off when I was a kid. ”

What he sees is something that he was used to be afraid off. The one thing that scared him when he was a kid now appears as his reflection staring back at him. 

Грэм Макнилл, автор прорвы романов и рассказов по вселенной Warhammer 40.000\FB, переходит работать в Riot Games. Удачи Маку на новом месте работы

I’ve been chatting with Riot for a little while and now they’ve offered me the position of Senior Narrative Writer in their Los Angeles offices. So, yeah, in the summer we’re leaving Nottingham and the UK and relocating to sunny California in the US of A.

This wasn’t a decision we took lightly. I enjoyed the work I was doing, where I was doing it and the way life revolved around our kids, friends, family, work, school and all the usual happenings that make up the everyday. We had Evan and Amber to think of, our own jobs and our house, our friends and families. We liked having all that close, and the idea of making such a life-changing upheaval was very scary. Far easier just to maintain the status quo, eh? In short, we were comfortable, but sometimes you need to change things up, to step out of your comfort zone, and I think we were all at that stage.

I first spoke with Riot back in December. I went over for an informal chat, not really knowing what to expect, but going in with an open mind. The people I met there were fantastic; full of passion and enthusiasm for what they were doing, and I came away feeling I’d had a real meeting of minds with the spirit of Riot’s creative heart. These were people who thrived on the sheer joy of creativity, where every avenue could be explored to see where it went. I came away tremendously excited at the possibility of working within those teams.

We went back over to California as a family in February so everyone could see LA and Santa Monica, to find out if it was a place we could see ourselves living and working. It most definitely was. And my second meeting with the creative types in Riot more than confirmed my desire to work with them. Their attitude to the work and the potential for all it offers in the future is incredible, which makes me tremendously excited about being part of it.

After some long, serious, grown-up talks about making the move, Anita and I came to the conclusion that the opportunities for our family were too incredible to pass up. It’s a life-changing adventure that’s going to be exciting and challenging all at the same time. It’s the kind of chance we had to snatch with both hands, as it’s the kind that doesn’t come around more than once. And I’d hate to look back in years to come with any kind of regret for the chances we didn’t take. So with a mixture of giggling excitement and trepidation at the thought of stepping into this brave new world, we’re getting packed up and looking west to this fresh phase of our future.

Ah, but what does this mean for all things Warhammer…?

Well, first and foremost, I’m a writer, so I’m not going to stop writing books any more than I’m going to choose to stop breathing. I’m still working on my current Horus Heresy novel, The Crimson King (I’ve just handed in the first half…) and will continue to write for the Black Library. Clearly my output will diminish, what with having a full time, salaried day job, but I’ll still be keeping my hand in. I have stories of Uriel Ventris yet to tell and the Battle for Macragge isn’t going to write itself. And, having been involved with the Horus Heresy series since its very opening act, I’ll be damned if I’m not going to show up for its final dramas and its curtain calls. Expect the odd quick read or audio to pop up here and there too. In short, I’m still going to keep you entertained with grim tales from the 41st Millennium, the Horus Heresy and beyond.

So, there you have it. As the summer dawns, Clan McNeill will be living it in California. Wish us well, and I’ll continue to talk to you all on Twitter, Facebook and e-mail.

Cheers,

Graham

Спойлер заключительной, третей, книги из цикла "Надвигающаяся Буря"

Previously, on the Gathering Storm... Cadia Falls as the 13th Black Crusade launches in full. Ynnead, Eldar God of the Dead, awakes in the ruins of Biel-Tan, and his Emmsiary, Yvraine, gathers a host of various Eldar together to form the Ynnarri. Archmagos Belisarius Cawl has an ancient pact to keep with the Lord of Ultramar (as well as a super-secret package to deliver) and must get to Macragge. Inquisitor Katarinya Greyfax can’t stop thinking about Saint Celestine…

Part One – Ultramar Defiant

High in the mountains of Laphis (Shrine World, Macragge System), Black Legionaries prowl the aftermath of a bloody battle against some Ultramar Defense Auxilia. War has come to Realm of Ultramar. Not all is quiet though – the Chaos Marines have detected a build-up of aetheric energy but before they can make sense of it, a massive blast of energy hurls them about. A Webway Gate reveals itself and Ynnari and Celestinian forces burst forth, quickly cutting down the surprised Black Legion marines. Despite their alliance, the Eldar and Imperial forces remain uneasy of each other, Marshal Amalrich and Inquisitor Greyfax most of all. Saint Celestine smooths things over as debate over their next move gets a bit twitchy and it becomes apparent they will need the assistance of the Ultramarines to get to Macragge itself.

Vox intercepts have picked up indicate a massive Chaos invasion – reports of Black Legion, Alpha Legion, Iron Warriors, Emperor’s Children and more are heard. The Eldar/Imperial force sets off towards a nearby Ultramarine fortress, only to see it come under assault from Heldrake hunting packs. The Knights of House Taranis shoot them down and, recognising the authority of both an Inquisitor and the Living Saint herself, the Ultramarine defenders let them in. Celestine explains their mission – Cawl must be given an audience with the Lord of Ultramar, and smiles expectantly as a flight of Stormravens arrive. They were meant to be the air-support for the fortress, but now they’ll take the Ynnari and Celestinian ‘pilgrims’ to a waiting Strike Cruiser. But Not everyone though – of the Eldar only Yvraine and the Visarch will go to Macragge, with the rest of the Ynnari heading back into the Webway to spread word of Ynnead. The bulk of the Battle Sisters, as well as the House Taranis Knights, stay behind on Laphis to help its defence too.

The Ultramarines are cautious. The travellers are kept under guard as the Strike Cruiser makes the journey to Macragge and a meeting with Marneus Calgar, Lord of Ultramar. Amalrich and the Eldar aren’t too keen on being essentially locked up with nothing and The Visarch eventually takes to sparring abit with the Black Templar Marshal. Cawl purges Greyfax of the mindshackle scarabs that Trazyn had used to keep her captive and she endures the agonising process by keeping a close eye on Celestine. She was beginning to see that Celestine’s “divinity” was the real deal, that the light of her faith shines righteous. But Greyfax is still an Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor – she is well aware of tricks and 'miracles' of foul nature. While she hopes Celestine is indeed uncorrupted, she is alert of the slightest hint of duplicity. Meanwhile, Yvraine and Cawl have a lengthy and circumspect conversation about upcoming events…

The Strike Cruiser reaches Macragge, only to find itself amidst a pitched space battle between the Ultramar Defence Fleet and the attacking Chaos Fleet. Macragge is under a full scale Chaos Invasion. Braving the firepower of ships from the Black Legion, Iron Warriors, the Purge and the Night Lords, the Ynnari and the Celestinians ride Stormravens down to the planet. Marneus Calgar has been informed of their arrival, along with their urgent request to meet with the Lord of Ultramar, and he awaits with interest. The battle rages around the Fortress of Hera, as the Ultramarines escort them to the strategium. Waiting them there are Chapter Master Calgar, First Captain Agemman, Chief Librarian Tigurius and Grand Master Voldus of the Grey Knight 3rd Brotherhood. Amalrich, Greyfax and Celestine bow before Calgar while the Eldar and Cawl stand impassively. Calgar reveals that he has no knowledge of who Cawl is and that he certainly hasn’t made any pact with an Archmagos. The Celestinians, bar Celestine herself who suddenly realises what’s going on, turn to Cawl in shock as he says he has no business with Calgar. He’s come to see the real Lord of Ultramar - Roboute Guilliman himself.

This raises an immediate outcry amongst the Ultramarines and weapons are raised in warning, as Cawl speaks basically of sacrilege. Celestine tries to explain - “would it help if I said we’re on a mission from God?” – but finds muzzles aimed her way too. Yvraine and the Visarch ready themselves for battle, but Chief Librarian Tigurius speaks up for Cawl. He has been having ominous visions of troubling times, visions that had helped prepare Macragge for defence against the Chaos Invasion, and he believes that these travellers have an important role to play. Calgar, who is still overseeing the defence of Macragge in the background as the standoff/discussion takes place, makes his decision: they will be allowed to enter the Shrine of Guilliman, but under heavy Ultramarine guard. Greyfax shared a glance with Amalrich – the Ultramarines would not be the only ones to exact swift vengeance if Cawl or the Ynnari stepped out of line with any more unexpected revelations.

Agemman stays behind to oversee the defences, while Calgar, Tigurius, Voldus, a smattering of 1st and 3rd Company Battle-Brothers and Honour Guard escort the Cawl and his compatriots to the Shrine. Guilliman lies before them, on a Throne of marble, gold and adamantium surrounded by the workings of his stasis field, the wounds on his armour from his final duel with Fulgrim still visible. Pausing to bow respect before the Primarch, Calgar again demands Cawl to tell him what his purpose is. Cawl explains that 10 millennia ago, before Guilliman was mortally wounded, the Primarch came to him and charged him with two great labours and that he was here to deliver on the first of those promises. Cawl had brought with him a new suit of armour fit for the Primarch, one that’s life-support systems could heal his wounds. The Ultramarines are stunned into silence – their Primarch, living and breathing again… could it be possible? Yvraine speaks up, explaining that the power she wields as the Emissary of Ynnead will be key to restoring Guilliman. But such power is not wielded without sacrifice – for Guilliman to live again, he must first die. This raises the immediate ire of the Ultramarines again, Calgar declaring that no witch will ever lay hands on the Primarch. Voldus, Greyfax and Marshal Amalrich stand with Calgar. Tigurius moves to stand with Cawl and the Ynnari. Celestine implores everyone to have faith; that this is the will of the Emperor. Weapons are raised yet again, and tensions are about to boil over…

Calgar receives a priority vox, and he’s barely able to shout a warning as an Ultramarine Thunderhawk comes crashing down in the cavernous shrine. Spilling out from its holds come a host of Chaos Raptors, wearing the colours of the Black Legion. They fan out quickly, attaching spiked icons to the floor. Teleportation flares thunder out, and Black Legion Terminators warp in and start laying fire into the Ultramarines. Calgar is aghast – Chaos, in the Primarch’s Shrine??? It’s more likely than you think! Forced to put aside his distrust of Cawl and the Ynnari for the moment, he charges into the Chaos forces - Celestine, Amalrich and Voldus with him - as pitched battle breaks out. Greyfax meanwhile copped a glancing hit in the opening salvo that knocked the wind out of her, and she’s forced to take cover. While she’s hanging back, she’s assessing the battlefield and can’t help but notice Celestine cutting a swathe through the Chaos marines – she may not fully trust the Saint, but she could not fault the woman’s selflessness or skill. Eyes on the prize Katarinya…

Greyfax’s psyocculum starts picking up on weird readings. Following the psyocculum’s needle, she notices Cawl, Tigurius and the Ynnari standing next to Guilliman’s stasis-pod. She watches as Tigurius blasts some charging Bezerkers and the realises that the weird readings she’s getting are of the psyocculum picking up a life energy transfer from the dead Bezerkers to Yvraine. She’s tries to dash out of cover, intending to go stop whatever unholy ritual is about to be performed, but she’s pinned in place by autocannon fire. Calgar notices the commotion too, and watches in horror as Yvraine raises her sword above Guilliman. He shouts a command to Tigurius, ordering him to stop the xenos witch, but Tigurius shakes his head in response as Yvraine cuts through the power cables sustaining the stasis field. The auto-reliquary that Cawl had been transporting then unfurls, and engulfs Guilliman.

The Black Legion forces, as if sensing the immensity of what’s about to happen, redouble their attacks and start to push the Ultramarine defenders back. A Chaos Sorcerer uses the new Heretic Astartes Geomortis Psychic Powers (pick up your datacards today kids!) to try and collapse the very foundations of the shrine itself – Tigurius desperately trying to make his Deny the Witch roll to prevent it – as Grey Knight Paladins teleport in shore up the defence. The battle hangs in the balance…. But a new wave of Dreadclaws smash down – 10 of the them! – and disgorge nearly a hundred new chaos marines into the fray. Calgar tries to rally to the Primarch’s Throne, but he’s tarpitted and brought to the ground by pile of Chaos Marines. Celestine is injured, an arm hanging uselessly at her side, and Amalarich finds himself bogged down too. Things look done for the Imperials as the Black Legion forces are mere meters from the throne… when the lights on the auto-reliquary blink from red to green. With a hiss, the arms of the auto-reliquary fold back and stepping out with a breathtaking splendour strides Roboute Guilliman.

(There’s a quick aside here, to briefly refresh our knowledge of the Primarchs and Guilliman in particular. It matches up with the fluff from the Horus Heresy series, alluding to Imperium Secundus amongst other things)

A stunned silence sweeps over the battlefield for a few moments as the presence of a Primarch seems to fill the massive room. It’s broken by the crazed charge of a lone Bezerker, who rushes Guilliman. But, with a speed that even the Ynnari would struggle to match, Guilliman neatly swings the Emperor’s Sword and cleaves the Bezerker in two. The moment is broken, and with a hateful cry the Black Legion forces charge at the Primarch. Guilliman strides directly to meet them. Celestine was not immune to the presence of the Primarch either – she sees it as straight up vindication of everything she has ever fought for, the Emperor’s Will made manifest. She sheds a single golden tear as she offers up prayers of thanks to the Emperor. A Black Legionnaire tries to strike at her while she’s distracted, except Celestine is anything but – she feels her injuries heal, and she drives the Ardent Blade through the traitor. She takes to the air, jumping across the battlefield to land next to Greyfax, who’s blasting away at Heretics with her boltgun.

“I erred,” Greyfax admits, “and I will do Penance. You truly are the instrument of the Emperor’s Will.”
“Vigilance is not a sin, Katarinya,” Celestine replies, “You serve Him as surely as I”.
“Indeed. Let us serve him together, as true warriors of Faith.” Together, Celestine and Greyfax launch themselves into the battle. Way better love story than Twilight.

Guilliman is utterly wrecking the Black Legion forces. None of his foes can even come close to matching the preternatural speed and skill of a Primarch. Every swing of his sword, every shot from his gauntlet sends traitor marines crumbling. His expression is grave – his last memory was of a desperate battle against a hateful brother, yet now he suddenly finds himself in a strange place surrounded by twisted and warped Astartes. Even the boys in blue are unfamiliar to him, but at least he can recognise them as allies. He eventually pushes to the downed form of Marneus Calgar. Calgar is badly injured, armour cracked and broken, but he’s alive and he looks up into the face of his Primarch in disbelief as Guilliman checks he still lives before moving on to continue his route of the Chaos Marines. The Black Legion morale is broken at this point, and they begin to flee – but not one of the will escape the Fortress of Hera alive.

Reinforcements arrive as the battle winds down, every one of the newly arriving Ultramarines dropping to their knees before the Primarch. Guilliman quickly takes charge of the scene, his strategic acumen taking over. He makes no reference to his miraculous rebirth, and none of the Ultramarines dare ask. News of the Primarch’s Rise spread through the fortress like wildfire, proclamations blaring from every vox speaker on every rampart. The Ultramarine and Ultramar Defense Auxilia manning the battlements are at first confused before finding new strength in the words they hear. In contrast, the Chaos forces arrayed against them begin to feel doubt and unease at the thought of a Primarch meeting them in battle.

Guilliman makes for the strategium, with a wounded Calgar at his side, where he formally requests command of the battle from First Captain Agemman. With Guilliman now in charge, the defense of the Fortress of Hera quickly turns in the Ultramarines favour. In short order, the fortress is swept of the Chaos presence and the Ultramarine’s stronghold on Macragge is secured. A ceremony is held in the Chapter Master’s sanctum, now to become the throne-room of the Primarch, as Guilliman is formally invested as a Lord of Ultramar and Master of the Ultramarines in front of the top command personnel and representatives of every Company of the Chapter. Saint Celestine ceremoniously gives him her blessings, and even Yvrainne and the Visarch are lurking in the background watching. The ceremony concludes, with Guilliman requesting to know everything that happened while he was gone…
