~He gave himself up to save her~ He made the wrong choice now he had to pay the price. √√√√√√√√ Careful little princess, careful little boy what you choose, for to consent, is to lose. The dragon's mouth is wide, filled with bones. It reeks of death and human flesh. With gold and diamond, he lures you in. He has beady pearls-flames for eyes, And like a sheep to the slaughter, you're served on a platter. He never gets enough; for like a lion, he goes about seeking whom to devour—his sole desire. So children, run, keep your concession, Or ye might be next. Ye have been warned. Remember this tale...the serpent never sleeps.

Chapter 1Brief Preview

"Don't you dare touch her!"

The dark mist turned to look at him and he could almost make out a human face.

It was smoky but he could barely see anything past it.

The realm was dark and shapeless and between him and her, a fiery chasm burned with a fierce intensity. It was desolation as far as the eyes could see.

Will chanced a look at the girl nearly passed out on the floor a few meters away from him.

"She's not yours to take. Take me instead," he exhaled shakily, "I'm the one you want." Will told the blond man already making his way towards her, the smokey figure following closely beside him.

"Will. . . don't." Will heard her soft voice from the other end of the void, as she struggled to recover from the blows she'd sustained.

"Just leave her alone, please." Will looked up at the tall blond man controlling the humanoid smoke.

The man paused and looked at him.

His eyes were blue- they were the eyes of the devil himself.

The man turned from the girl and began walking towards him.

"Your soul won't be enough. I'll need three others." The man said.

He crouched next to Will and whispered,

"Do you consent?"

Will looked at the weakened girl on the rocky floor and felt his heart ache.

He knew it was all or nothing.

"Yes," he breathed, looking into the man's eyes,

"I consent."

Steampunk Apocalypse!

Earth suffered apocalypse. All electronics over the world were destroyed. War and famine ravaged the lands. When humanity tried to rebuild, they discovered that most technology no longer worked. The laws that governed the world had changed! Steam technology rose in popularity after the apocalypse. Humanity entered a new golden age. Then, the seven nightmares attacked. Espers with strange powers appeared. Mutants took over most of the world. This was the beginning of the Mana Apocalypse! My name is Edward Tesla and I was born during the Mana Apocalypse. This is my story about trying to protect everything I care about in this living hell. My inventions will defeat the nightmares and save the world! Steam rifles, steam tanks, and steam mechs. My inventions will surpass them all! Extra Note from the author: Some of the early chapters are a bit rough and need rewritten. Most of the long-term fans come from Chapter 21 and up. I guarantee the story continues to improve from there as you continue reading. Political factions, wars, steam tech, mana mysteries, and more. Though the story starts in America, it also visits China, Europe, Africa, and other areas of the world later on. -------------------------------------------------- Note from author: This novel was the winner of the Steampunk writing contest.
