"Prince Richard," said the cold, cruel general, mouth twisted into a smirk and one blue eye icy cold, "Well, I suppose you aren't a prince anymore."

Dick kept his mouth shut, and hoped that the others kept their mouths shut too.  Jason, who was the first one he'd worry about, was gone, disappeared into the night with Tim on the hunt for ghosts.  Cass was halfway across the land, too far to be hurt, which left Damian and Stephanie.  He could trust Steph to keep Damian in line.  He had to.

"If only looks could kill," Slade laughed, and his men laughed with him.  The hall was full of them, of his warriors, menacing the remainder of Dick's paltry court.  The representative from Nanda Parbat was watching intently.  Dick wasn't imagining the smile on his face.  "What's the matter, Prince Richard?  Not enjoying yourself?"

Dick felt sick.  Sick and numb.  He had been castellan of Gotham for a few paltry months before losing it.  Bruce would be so ashamed.

"It appears that the prince has lost his tongue," Slade laughed, beckoning Dick closer.  Dick knew it wasn't worth it to disobey.

Slade waited until Dick was within arm's reach of the throne before grabbing him and forcing him closer.  Dick struggled for an instant before he remembered where he was, and let Slade drag him forward.

The kiss was savage and domineering, Slade's mouth hot and devouring as he pulled Dick fully into his lap, forcing him to straddle the general as he submitted to the kiss.  His cheeks burned when he felt the hands on his ass.

"No, tongue's there all right," Slade called out when he finally pulled back.  "And I now I definitely know why there are so many odes to the prince's ass."  He paired it with a pinch.  "A big castle and a pretty prince in my lap, what more could I want?"

Slade's men were jeering, and Dick didn't dare turn around to look at Damian and Steph.  If Slade wanted—better him than them.  Please not them.

~#~

Dick shifted on his knees, hands balled into fists by his side, not looking up as the general conducted the final preparations for seizing the castle.  Dick didn't want to see Slade.  He didn't want to acknowledge any unspoken order the man would give with Dick here, kneeling between his legs, inches away from his own throne.

Please let Damian not be watching this.  Please, please, let Steph be covering his eyes, Damian shouldn't see this, he was just a child—

"I have to say," Slade mused, loud enough for the whole hall to hear, "I could get used to a sight like this."

A hand tightened in Dick's hair and he let himself be pulled up, pliant.  He wouldn't cry.  He wouldn't cry.

The man's expression was more inscrutable this time.  "All done taking your kingdom," he said, voice heavy with implication.  "Now just to take its king."

Dick locked his jaw.  He would not cry.  He would not cry.

"Someone go fetch a crown," Slade got up, dragging Dick up with him.  "I've always wanted to fuck a prince."  The jeers in the hall grew louder.  "The rest of you can take whatever spoils you like.  We won't be staying long."

They never did.  They conquered, they looted, and they went on their merry way, a vicious band of mercenaries with no code, no honor, no loyalty.

"Please," Dick finally unstuck his mouth to say, "my siblings.  Please don't—"

"The little prince and his handmaid will be fine," the general snorted, still dragging Dick along.  "You really aren't very bright, are you."

Something hot and thick crawled into Dick's throat at the insult given so bluntly.  If Dick had been smarter, he could've protected Gotham, if Dick had been a better leader, if Dick had just crowned himself king—

He could feel himself start to go numb.  Distant.  He barely registered Slade reaching his bedchamber, or shoving him inside, or the man locking the door behind him.

Overkill, Dick thought dazedly, at the numerous locks on the door.

Dick stumbles back.  Away from Slade.  From the man who will—who was planning to—who—

There was a crown in Slade's hand.  Dick didn't know who gave it to him.  Slade steps forward and Dick steps back, until he hits the edge of the bed, until there's nowhere to run.

Slade drops the crown on his head with a sardonic smile.  It's the actual crown.  Gotham's crown, to be worn only by its ruler.  It's of Gotham, the weight heavy on Dick's head, it's the literal symbol of his country.  And Dick is going to get fucked wearing it.

It feels....really heavy.  Dick is actually developing a headache.  He raises a hand to take it off but Slade catches it and forces it down.  "No," the general says sharply.

Dick should obey.  Dick has to obey.  But it's getting acutely painful and he fights against Slade's grip, trying to free his hands or toss the crown off or something to prevent this searing pain.

"It hurts," Dick gasps, vision blurry.  The room is spinning.

"Maybe if you'd just bloody crowned yourself at the start, it wouldn't have to be this way," says an unsympathetic voice, before the whole room goes dark.

Ok so I've realized that I can't stop writing. I've gotten sucked into another story wormhole but this one is just fantasy. It uses Obiwan and Maul as the archetypes for a knight and a warlord but their stories are different. Starwars references will mostly be like Easter eggs haha.

I will mostly get started on Loveless 2 after Secret Invasion because it ties into Ross being a spy and I want to see where the marvel realm is developing.

But yeah if you're interested in fantasy, enemies to lovers, ZOYALAI coded (the queen and the warlord), friends to lovers (the knight and the duchess), magic, medieval and all that. Check out 'Conquered' 😃

I'm going to start posting chapters on Tumblr too, it's already updated on A03 💖

Sol Dimension's alternate reality(Sonic Boom style) part 1

Sol dimension was mentioned in Archie, IDW and games as the alternate dimension of Sonic's world. If Sonic's world has it's own set of multiverse, why can't Sol dimension have it's own multiverse? What if the alternate dimension of Blaze's world had been conquered by Eggman Nega? How would Eggman Nega conquered the alternate dimension?

In Sonic rush, Sol dimension and Sonic's world merged together after Dr Eggman and Eggman Nega stole Sol Emerald and brought it in Sonic's world. Meanwhile, Eggman Nega acquired the chaos emerald which Sonic seek. They intentionally merged the two dimensions together to create their own version of Eggman land or transdimensional Eggman land. The fusion between two dimension would actually wreck the reality of the world, causing a dimensional rift. Or Boom Eggman called it catastrophe anomaly.

In Sonic Rush Adventure, Eggman Nega and Dr Eggman stole Jeweled Scepter. The jeweled scepter was taken to Deep Core at Southern Island. At the deep core, the villians used Jeweled Scepter to unlock the Power of Star to create Eggman world. They inserted jeweled scepter into its altar which enlarged  for the Egg Wizard to wield it while giving the villains' mech access to the Power of the Stars.

However, Eggman Nega's Alternate Sonic Boom counterpart condemn these action. Just like his predecessor Boom Eggman, he strongly value the coexistence of Sonic multiverse. In his knowledge, the chaos powered gem such as chaos crystal, sol crystal (Sol emerald's counterpart), sol emerald and chaos emerald power of the worlds are too different to be used at the same time. These would cause a catastrophe anomaly.

Instead, Alternate Boom Eggman Nega would take SatAm Eggman approach in world domination. First of all, he would work with Blaze's father to gain his trust. While he was working with Blaze's father the ruler of Sol's empire, he would prepare his armies secretly and learn the power of Sol crystal.

At the same time, he would strategically overthrow Sol's empire with his iron fist when Blaze was still 5 years old. This time, Blaze was alone so the only chance she would get to survive is to migrate to another dimension. She was sent to move to the Alternate Sonic Boom world where Sonic didn't exist.

Why? Because unlike SatAm series where Sonic and Sally had many friends to help to retaliate Eggman Nega in the future, she was alone with no allies and her parents were robotized. Many citizens and royal families had been robotized. At that point, she couldn't control her pyrokinesis power yet. At that point, she would end up in Angel Island in which she would meet the guardian of Master Crystal (Master Emerald's counterpart). No, the guardian of Master crystal is not Knuckles but Julie Su. Her counterpart's character was similar to the one in Archie unlike Knuckles' counterpart. There, she would learn the skills required in military, combat and defense. She would also learn how to control her pyrokinesis and how to manipulate chaos force(aka chaos control). Her training lasted for 8 years.

One day, Blaze met the rebellion team who were on the adventure to Angel Island. With the help of Boom Sonic, the rebellion team has defeated Eggman from Alternate Sonic Boom dimension or simply called "Emo" by Boom Sonic so their trip to Angel Island was a celebration. The rebellion team consisted of Sticks, Knuckles, Amy and Tails. The moment they entered the altar of emerald where Master crystal resided, Blaze charged at them on behalf of Julie Su. However, Julie Su stopped her when she noticed Knuckles the echidna. She was glad that she was not the only echidna alive.

At that moment, Julie Su asked Blaze to give them tour to Mystic ruin. Blaze slowly learn the meaning of friendship after their trip to Mystic Ruin. When she learnt that they're rebellion team who overthrow Emo Eggman, she felt there's something in common. So she told them her story of how she lost her home after Eggman Nega conquered Sol Empire. The rebellion team was willing to help Blaze to overthrow Eggman Nega so they invited her to the rebellion team. However, Blaze had a hard time to leave Angel Island as Julie Su had been her mother figure and trainer for so long but Julie Su encouraged her to go because her dimension needs her and the Alternate Sonic Boom world need her as well.

In the end of the day, Blaze became the new member of rebellion team. Blaze helped them to defeat Emo Eggman in return, Tails created an interdimensional portal and derobotizer. Sticks and Amy would be the spy while Knuckles and Blaze would slowly took several robotized citizens to be derobotized.

The preparation took 2 years including a plan to retrieve Jeweled Scepter back. After gaining the ownership of jeweled scepter, team rebellion returned the jeweled scepter to Coral cave. Meanwhile, Alternate Boom Tails set a water proof force field inside coral cave. At the same time, he implanted his robot armies. The guardian of jeweled scepter was Team Rebellion. It changed according to shifts. The shift changed from Amy Rose (Monday-Tuesday), Knuckles (Wednesday), Sticks (Thursday), Blaze (Friday-Saturday) and Tails (Sunday). The guardianship shift lasted until the war ended.

2 years later, Alternate Boom Amy and Blaze (from Alternate Boom Sol dimension) would visit Sonic Boom dimension to forged an alliance to defeat Alternate Boom Eggman Nega. Then, Boom Sonic would introduced team cyborg. Afterward, alternate Amy would forged another alliance with Modern Sonic so he introduced them to Team Heroes and Team Rose.

Armed with robot army (made by Alternate Boom Tails), Team Cyborg, Team Heroes, trained derobotized Boom Sol dimension's citizens, Boom Sonic and Team Rebellion, they managed to defeat Eggman Nega and retrieve Sol Empire back after 8 month war. Afterward, Alternate Boom Tails helped Blaze to derobotized the citizen and royal families. Blaze would help her mother to revive their kingdom back. Boom Sonic would give her cyborg version of herself along with Marine and other members of Coconut Crew. Marine and other members of Coconut Crew were the first derobotized citizens.

Well, this is my fan theory. I was just exploring many possibilitie. This theory is inspired from SatAm series where Dr Robotnik managed to conquer Mobius but I give my own spin off. Hope you like the theory.

Făgăraș Fortress, Transylvania

Built in 1310. on the site of a former 12th century wooden fortress, burned by the Tartars in 1241, Fagaras was enlarged between the 15th and 17th centuries when it was considered one of the strongest fortifications in Transylvania. The fortress is surrounded by two rows of walls, the space between them being filled with earth; the result is one sturdy eight-meter thick wall.

The fortress was surrounded by a deep moat which, in times of war or social unrest, could easily be filled with water from a nearby mountain brook, which is why it has never been conquered. A bridge over the moat provided the only access point. The fortress boasts strong defending walss and five watch towers. All armed attacks on the fortress were unsuccessful, its eventual downfall coming as a result of inside treason.

I'm NOT a Boat Squatter

I’m NOT a Boat Squatter

So, you know the story. The winds and waves are in an uproar and the disciples are totally freaked out. They think their lives are about to be taken when here comes Jesus walking on the water. He calls Peter to come to Him. Without any hesitancy, Peter is audacious enough to obey the voice of His Lord. In a bold move, Peter got out of the boat and was actually walking on water. But we know the…

Joshua 13: God Informs Joshua Their Is More Land To Be Conquered And Taken

1 When Joshua had grown old, the Lord said to him, “You are now very old, and there are still very large areas of land to be taken over.

2 “This is the land that remains: all the regions of the Philistines and Geshurites, 

3 from the Shihor River on the east of Egypt to the territory of Ekron on the north, all of it counted as Canaanite though held by the five Philistine rulers in Gaza, Ashdod, Ashkelon, Gath and Ekron; the territory of the Avvites 

4 on the south; all the land of the Canaanites, from Arah of the Sidonians as far as Aphek and the border of the Amorites; 

5 the area of Byblos; and all Lebanon to the east, from Baal Gad below Mount Hermon to Lebo Hamath.

6 “As for all the inhabitants of the mountain regions from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim, that is, all the Sidonians, I myself will drive them out before the Israelites. Be sure to allocate this land to Israel for an inheritance, as I have instructed you, 

7 and divide it as an inheritance among the nine tribes and half of the tribe of Manasseh.”

Division of the Land East of the Jordan

8 The other half of Manasseh, the Reubenites and the Gadites had received the inheritance that Moses had given them east of the Jordan, as he, the servant of the Lord, had assigned it to them.

9 It extended from Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Gorge, and from the town in the middle of the gorge, and included the whole plateau of Medeba as far as Dibon, 

10 and all the towns of Sihon king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon, out to the border of the Ammonites. 

11 It also included Gilead, the territory of the people of Geshur and Maakah, all of Mount Hermon and all Bashan as far as Salekah— 

12 that is, the whole kingdom of Og in Bashan, who had reigned in Ashtaroth and Edrei. (He was the last of the Rephaites.) Moses had defeated them and taken over their land. 

13 But the Israelites did not drive out the people of Geshur and Maakah, so they continue to live among the Israelites to this day.

14 But to the tribe of Levi he gave no inheritance, since the food offerings presented to the Lord, the God of Israel, are their inheritance, as he promised them.

15 This is what Moses had given to the tribe of Reuben, according to its clans:

16 The territory from Aroer on the rim of the Arnon Gorge, and from the town in the middle of the gorge, and the whole plateau past Medeba 

17 to Heshbon and all its towns on the plateau, including Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon, 

18 Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath, 19 Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth Shahar on the hill in the valley, 

20 Beth Peor, the slopes of Pisgah, and Beth Jeshimoth— 

21 all the towns on the plateau and the entire realm of Sihon king of the Amorites, who ruled at Heshbon. Moses had defeated him and the Midianite chiefs, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur and Reba—princes allied with Sihon—who lived in that country. 

22 In addition to those slain in battle, the Israelites had put to the sword Balaam son of Beor, who practiced divination. 

23 The boundary of the Reubenites was the bank of the Jordan. These towns and their villages were the inheritance of the Reubenites, according to their clans.

24 This is what Moses had given to the tribe of Gad, according to its clans:

25 The territory of Jazer, all the towns of Gilead and half the Ammonite country as far as Aroer, near Rabbah; 

26 and from Heshbon to Ramath Mizpah and Betonim, and from Mahanaim to the territory of Debir; 

27 and in the valley, Beth Haram, Beth Nimrah, Sukkoth and Zaphon with the rest of the realm of Sihon king of Heshbon (the east side of the Jordan, the territory up to the end of the Sea of Galilee). 

28 These towns and their villages were the inheritance of the Gadites, according to their clans.

29 This is what Moses had given to the half-tribe of Manasseh, that is, to half the family of the descendants of Manasseh, according to its clans:

30 The territory extending from Mahanaim and including all of Bashan, the entire realm of Og king of Bashan—all the settlements of Jair in Bashan, sixty towns, 

31 half of Gilead, and Ashtaroth and Edrei (the royal cities of Og in Bashan). This was for the descendants of Makir son of Manasseh—for half of the sons of Makir, according to their clans.

32 This is the inheritance Moses had given when he was in the plains of Moab across the Jordan east of Jericho. 

33 But to the tribe of Levi, Moses had given no inheritance; the Lord, the God of Israel, is their inheritance, as he promised them.
