I'm sure I have better things to do, rather than searching through crucial documents."

"Who said anything about this being, because you seeked out a file?" Mrs. Starr raises one of her well shaped eyebrows, her crimson hair flowing by her shoulders.

"Sounds pretty awful." Karen sympathetically empathises, taking me aback slightly. Never in one million years, would I expect to hear Mrs. Starr to comprehend my tribulations, markedly that she is a corporate billionaire. "Everybody has trials, even superheroes. Oddly, they are the ones that always have the most difficult solutions." she gently taps me on my shoulder.

Just as I was about to parley further, the elevator door swooshes open, and we step out in a professional unison. "Welcome to research and development, primarly used for experimenting with new ways of transportation." Karen proudly briefs over the deafening noise of heavy machinery. "However, my head designer has a knack for making equipment, so, he will be seeing you from know on." she coolly adds on. How does she know? Apparently, she

    It's not as though Mr. Quade was surprised by the butler's reactions to his somewhat unconventional approach. But he was watching the man very closely to be sure, getting the measure of him, seeing if he would flee the room at first sight of something unusual, or whether he would stay, dutiful as ever.

    H annelore Bauer’s sister, the thirteen year old Ingeborg “Inge” Bauer, was lugging around a rectangular wooden box with two attached straps, allowing her to carry the box on her back. Long past nightfall, a full moon illuminating the nighttime sky was enough lighting for her. With not a single oncoming vehicle in sight, she crossed an empty countryside road in the Midwest, towards a ditch. Adelburger Walther Schäffer and FVL leaders Lucas Fields, Preston Connelly, and Gudruna Hurley were waiting for her there. Jumping into the ditch and making a perfect landing on her two feet, the four RGA members were rather glad that Inge was able to come along, in addition to the wooden box that she carried on her back.…

Weak modifiers such as, basically, sort of, and mostly, detract from the strength of all genres of writing. Repetition reviled itself multiple times towards the end of the narrative. The adjective “happy” was overused (three times in 50 words).…

    Morjete. Like any proper South American locale, it had all the amenities that people thought it did if they watched the gritty, hard boiled action movies. But Morjete was a special slice of heaven, the place where people that were too dangerous for Rio De Jeneiro found themselves, the place where ex-FARC decided to call it quits, gangsters and thugs all seemed to just migrate to it. The promise of a life working for a Colombian Cartel was almost too much for some scum of the earth, until they got to Morjete and realized that crime, much like law, operated under a system of checks and balances people who wanted an anarchist dream were usually dead before the next week. The reality was is that there was no business in chaos.…
