The Manticore Ascension: A Short Story In The Arena Mode Universe - Plot & Excerpts

Sitting next to him in the cockpit I pulled the belt across my lap and clicked it into place. “Aye aye, captain.” I gave him an exaggerated salute and he laughed uncontrollably. “Is it going to be like this for the entire trip?” Drake asked from behind us. “Pretty much,” Dawson shrugged. “You’re going to have to get used to these foreign concepts...like laughter and friendship. And not being a dick.” Drake couldn’t help but smile. Which was odd, since I hadn’t seen him smile once since I’d arrived in the Kingdom. He reached into the cockpit and rumpled his little brother’s hair, eliciting another goofy laugh. “Exit,” Dawson commanded, triggering the castle’s hangar doors. They pulled open, bathing us in bright yellow sunlight, revealing the wide open space that stretched beyond the mountain tops.
