《Conviction》 -Prologue- Ba Bum¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­Ba Bum¡­¡­.¡­Ba Bum¡­¡­Ba Bum¡­Ba bum All he could hear was his heart beat thumping as he got closer to his destination. He had his eyes closed picturing his wife with open arms welcoming him back with her big smile that would melt any man¡¯s heart and deep blue eyes that captivated you into thinking that you were staring into the endless sky. He imaged her saying I miss you my love in her sweet tender voice. He loved her very much and missed her to the point that his heart would ache in pain. Suddenly someone grabbed his shoulder in front of him, bringing him back to reality. He looked at the young man and nodded. The young man nodded back acknowledging his response and went back to his seat. In front of him were 14 men with 7 sitting on his left side and the other 7 on his right side. He got up and picked up his Colt M4 Carbine Assault rifle outfitted for a large stealth assault against the enemy base. As he got up the other men got up and saluted in response as he walked past them. All you could hear were the sound of their heavy breathing, the thumping noise for every step he took past them, and the back door of the assault jet opening up letting in the air pressure looking to suck you out if you let it. He looked down into the endless darkness and with no hesitation he jumped into the darkness letting it shallow him up. Following his action the other men walked side by side and jumped in the pairs of 2¡¯s following him into the darkness. This story originates from a different website.

Chapter One Main Page Chapter One - General Khan Chapter One ¨C General Khan A Man in a black suit walks onto the stage surrounded by many people in a large room at the Hyades Convention Center in Boston. He walks to the middle of the stage he greets the family of the man and walks where the podium stands and looks toward the crowd ¡°I am the president of the USA and it is my honor to come here personally to reward General Khan with one of the greatest award that anyone could have possibly achieved for the recognition of achievement he has accomplished during the war. He put himself into the heart of the enemy taking the risk that no one else would take so we the people can sleep well at night with no worries. To him his life was not important as the ones he love and us the people of the United States of America. He didn¡¯t have to fight in the war because his already retired, but chose to reenlist into the military to serve his country in our time of need. I have no words to describe the heart that this man has. He went above and beyond and with his courage and strong determination. He overcame the impossible and ended the war swiftly before the enemy could do anything to our country. As asked by his family I would like to show a video that we wouldn¡¯t otherwise show without the consent of the military and family, but this is an important video that has to be watched by all. The video will be shown through the eye camera that will show the 1st person view of the person. We will be playing the camera of 2nd Lt Rogers, we would recommend people with weak hearts to leave this room as the video is very graphic¡± The light goes dim and a video begins playing 2nd LT Rogers POV of the final battle ¡°Shit they won¡¯t fucking give up¡± he screamed in his head Rogers was sprinting down the hall avoiding gunshot from enemy fire. He was task into planting the bomb into one part of the building, but was spotted by enemy units that were going to reinforce the other side of the building that was being assault by the main force that was used as distraction for his team. He was part of the team that jumped with General Khan to the back side of the building to plant bombs and another assault force distracted the enemy by attacking the front of the building and another building next to it. He successfully infiltrated the building and completed his assignment, but a mistake on route got him running into a squad. He managed to toss a flash bang and run around, but they still caught up to him as he had to avoid other team within the chaos and was spotted by another unit. He grabs hold of another flash bang from his belt and drops it on the ground to blind the enemy, but before the flash goes off ¡°Bang¡± one of the enemy soldier gets a good shot at Rogers and he¡¯s hit in the leg. He groans in pain and continues running while he¡¯s bleeding profusely. Rogers¡¯s vision slowly loses awareness in his surrounding and can barely focus as the blood keeps flowing out. Suddenly a rocket flies past him and hits the wall causing him to fly into the wall in the opposite direction knocking him out cold. 2nd LT Camera POV of the final battle (he¡¯s unconscious so everything you see is through his headgear camera now and this is what the audience is also watching too) In the video Rogers is looked to be against the wall unconscious. You can see the wall in front of him has been hit by a rocket and there are bits of debris and small fire around him. In the corner of the video you can see armed enemy soldiers walking towards him with their guns up watching him with caution for any movement. One of the soldiers walks up to Rogers and checks his pulse while unarming him. If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. ¡°He¡¯s unconscious and unarmed sir, what do you want to do?¡± He says to his officer ¡°Good work private let me make a call to headquarters¡± The officer replies As the officer is making the call and the soldiers are waiting for orders, someone comes out from the darkness of one of the vents on grabs one of the soldier and snaps his neck like a twig. He proceeds to the next one and also snaps his neck effortlessly as he did to the previous soldier. The next closest soldier turns around and before he could say and take any action the person drives a combat knife into his neck. The soldier examining Rogers look over and before he could raise his gun, the man pulls out his pistol ¡°Pft, Pft¡± he takes two shot from his silencer pistol putting a bullet through the skull of the soldier and his officer. The man holster his pistol and combat knife and walks over to Rogers and check on his pulse and sighed happily when he finds out Rogers still alive. As he quickly Bandage up Rogers wounds he says ¡°Rogers you¡¯re always getting messed up no matter where we go, even If we¡¯re not even on mission. I¡¯m glad that you¡¯re still alive kiddo.¡± He proceeds to pick up Rogers and puts him over his shoulders and you can see them moving through the building. Guns and explosive can be heard in the back ground as the two continues moving through the building, but the viewers can¡¯t see anything since the camera are facing the ground. Suddenly you can see the movement of the person increases as the picture of the ground moves faster and faster. Bullets and be heard being shot at the two and a bullet mark is made in the ground on the camera as they are moving. The camera becomes shaky as the person is trying to move as fast they can while turning and Rogers body jerks with the sudden movement. This goes for 12 minutes before the camera shows them going out the window of the building with Rogers tucked into the man arms to shield him from the fall out of the 2nd story building. The face of the man is shown on the camera as blood coming out of his mouth and he struggles to get up. The man carries Rogers through the forest as the bullets can be heard hitting the ground. In the background you can hear two voices. ¡°Commander we have successfully retreated and out of blast range¡± said from one of the voice ¡°Tell the men I¡¯m sorry and that have Major Cunningham take control.¡± Replied the man as he coughs violently. ¡°What do yo----¡°The man cut off as a massive explosive can be heard. It shows the man falling down from the force of the explosion and you can see the camera facing toward the man who struggling to turn over on to his back. In the video you can see the guy looking into the sky ¡°Sorry my love it seems like I won¡¯t make it home¡± he says as he continue staring into the endless sky These were the final moments of General Khan, Father of 4 kids, Husband to a loving wife, Hero to the people of the United States of America. Chapter 2 Main Page Chapter Two - The birth of two children CH 2 ¨C The birth of the two children Wah¡­wah¡­¡­..wah¡­¡­¡­.wahhh¡­.wahhhh¡­¡­¡­.. ¡°Am I in hell? I can¡¯t see anything, control any of my body movements as I normally could, and there¡¯s the crying of a baby in the background.¡± Khan thought to himself. Finally his vision brighten up, but because he was a newborn his vision was limited to a few inches in front of him as baby develop their eyesight in the first few months in their lives. Khan saw blurry shapes in front of him and as the person holding him brought him closer to their chest to hold him tightly; Khan thought to himself -¡°WHAO those are massive breast, but I just don¡¯t have the control in my arms to reach for them. Why am I being tortured like this?¡±- He started crying and when the other baby heard him cry, he cried harder in response. Khan was getting annoyed, but as the person embraced him he felt good and fell asleep into the sweet warmth of the person bosom. Queen Mary Ann Venices POV At first Queen Mary was nervous that she gave birth to two children since it was the first time it has happened in her family, but most of all it can lead to internal conflict for the throne as they were possible heir to the throne. She named the second child David Jr. Van Venices as he cried when he came out, so it the baby crying reminded her of her husband. She named the first child who didn''t cry at first Khan Van Venices. The name just popped up into her mind as she was deciding for the name of the baby. Even though both babies are different, she loved them both very much. She wasn''t sure on what to do about the difference in the children, but what gave her a bit of hardship was the fact that Prince Khan Hair was white and David Jr. inherited the same hair color she and her husband the king had. She remember calling up one of the most influential bishop in a nearby cathedral and he said that Prince Khan was a demon spawn and should be lit on fire and tossed into the deep ocean in a sealed box. So she had him lit on fire instead for actually trying to kill the baby with a fireball that she was able to block it with her mana shield. She then called up a powerful arch mage from the guild and he said that Prince Khan was an evil fallen angel and tried to kill Prince Khan with an ice spear, but Queen Mary was able to stop it with her mana and killed the arch mage. Afterword she became dejected and gave up on finding the reason why his hair was white, but instead find a plan to protect Prince Khan. She decided that she would send her son to her family village with her parents to protect him and allow him to grow up like a normal child even though he has white hair. The level is discrimination he will face in court will be extremely high because a large amount of nobles are just corrupt and greedy. If Prince Khan has no support other than his mother then he will be openly discriminated against for his hair and to possibly get rid of him so he won¡¯t be a threat to any other heir to the throne. So she decided to talk her husband the King, David Van Venices about this. ¡°My Love¡± she says with a seductive look at King David while lying in bed with him ¡°Yes my queen?¡± he relies as he¡¯s about to grope her, but she grabs his hand and force it down while moving closer to his ear. ¡°Our son Prince Khan, I¡¯m worried because of his hair color he will be discriminated and taken advantage of. I propose we send him back to my parents and live with the commoners until he¡¯s older to be able to fight for himself¡± She whispered into his ear and then licked his neck. ¡°I understand that he will go through a hard time, but he can¡¯t be living with the commoners and there will be a high chance of him getting assassinated without the royal guards protecting him, my love.¡± He says back to her while heavy breathing as he¡¯s been seduced by Queen Mary. ¡°We will fake his death for now and send a few trusted guards along with their family and a maid that¡¯s a little older than him to be his friend too.¡± She replies she continued to hold him back from trying to release the beast on her (If you know what I mean). ¡°I¡¯m sorry my Queen, but I can¡¯t allo------¡° King David responds back, but stop half way when Queen Mary gets up and starts walking to the door ¡°I¡¯m sorry then my love I don¡¯t feel well I¡¯m going back to my room to sleep with Prince Khan then¡± she said pretending to be sad. King David has never been rejected as he was the king and the ladies would flock to him, but this was the first time a lady would walk away and reject him. He was already seduced, but this turned him on so much that he just couldn''t take it anymore to the point where he would kill his jester out of frustration (feel bad for the guy, but hey that¡¯s life for you). ¡°Fine do what you want, just come back to bed with me my queen!¡± he desperately replied. You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.¡°Yes my Love¡± She replied to him -¡°Thank you mom for teachings you''ve given me¡±- Mary thought to herself (She used the same thing to get him to marry her, but that¡¯s a different story for another time) The rest was history and Prince Khan was able to get sent to the village where she grew her and where her family still resides. She did this because she deeply loved her son Prince Khan and wants the best for him even if she has to sacrifice the time she could spend with him. Prince Khan POV It¡¯s been two years since I''ve been born into this new world. At first I really couldn''t accept it since I already lived a fulfilling life before, but in the long two years I''ve spent at the castle doing nothing, but make baby noises and urinate on myself. I was able to think about this new life and of course with the Queen my mother support, which helped me a lot; I felt a feeling I haven¡¯t felt in a long time that I almost have forgotten that pushed me into making my decision. It was motherly love and the reason why it has such a big impact on me was my mother in the other world who loved me just as much as the queen did and sacrificed her life for me when I was the age 8, leaving a hole in my heart for the longest time until I met my wife in my previous life. I decided that in this new life I¡¯ll just live it to the fullest and see where it takes me, but I still have mixed feeling occasioning about it as I worked extremely hard and made the sacrifices others didn''t take in my previous life to become successful as I was before. So when I finally decided to make my decision and accepting this life, my mother decided to send me off away from the capital of Baston to a village nearby called Sasston. It was a poor village with one good size manor where the village chief lived and a lot of smaller houses with one black smith with one large farm nearby. It was a huge blow to me as it made me feel my mother didn''t love me anymore. It was probably due to her having to kill the crazy bishop and arch mage that tried to kill me a while back. It could also be two reasons that would make the royal family look bad for having me as a child. The first is my extremely weak body and the only theory I can come up with is that it could possible that because my soul from another world that my mana/magic is weaker compared to the soul who are used to this world. I first felt this when I felt my mana a week after I was born and decided to train it since I had nothing else to do. When I increased my mana I felt something fight back and it felt like the air and gravity around my body increased pushing me down until my body and mana got used to it, but when that happened the same would happen and I would have to increase my strength and mana to match up. This became an endless cycle where I was always at the losing end. So it took me longer to walk compared to my twin brother and I still haven¡¯t said a word to my family because I only get enough air to barely breath. My mother did look into my weak body, but the doctors just said I had a weak body and might be retarded while looked away from me because they were scared of my white hair. Already I was a disgrace to the family and the king didn¡¯t even talk to me at all or play with me compared to my brother and siblings who excel in either magic or physical strength. I wasn¡¯t disappointed since I don¡¯t want a grown man hugging me and treating me like a child, but I didn¡¯t like being treated like an idiot and shun from the rest of the family. Of course the second reason would be my hair color, which is white. No one in my family has white hair; no one in the castle has white hair, no one anywhere that is younger than the age of 30 has white hair that I''ve seen so far. So why me, why do I have white hair? I don¡¯t know and I wasn''t able to read any books to increase my knowledge about anything I needed to know about my problem and white hair. I spend most of my time understanding and trying to increase my mana, while trying to increase my strength, which was much harder. I¡¯m not going to give up on this and will figure out the solution to my problem. I will also get back at my brother and siblings for spitting at me and laughing at me as if I was an animal. Well I probably won¡¯t get back at them since I¡¯m still mentally a 52 years old man so I shouldn''t get be thinking about revenge on young children. In the end this really can¡¯t be worse than how my previous life was. I wasn''t the strongest, fastest, and smartest, but I was the hardest working and never gave up no matter how tough the situation was. I love a challenge and I¡¯ll accept this as a challenge into becoming something great because the best didn''t become the best for sitting around all they, but they put work into it even if they were at the lowest totem pole.
