Should Have Let Me Die

Chapter 100: Where Are We Falling To Next?

I woke up under the covers but I was alone, which was kind of disappointing considering I had gone to sleep with Addel and Kadence, but it was the first night in a while that I hadn't had a sexual workout. Oh well, I give myself a day of rest to charge back up, so to speak, hehe! I climbed out of bed and threaded my clothes back on, going for a more cool look this time; a short-sleeved trench coat with a high collar, all black, because I'm a creature of habit, sue me.

I walked over to the clothes stand and opened the top drawer and smiled. Inside were five small rectangular boxes of different sizes. Interested, I opened each one and found that each box contains a different style of glasses! First was the face-hugging Oakley's, then some aviators, cop-killers, the same 80's safety box ones I lost, and...well Cable could have these, haha!

The last pair were some white-rimmed D&G looking douche bag frames; not all of them could be winners, and I loved my wives for trying, plus Cable would rock these all day long! I headed out of the room, tucking the boxes into a freshly created pocket. Magic, this stuff was starting to get pretty helpful.

Soon, I was out on the top deck, but no one was here. I looked, but even Markeye wasn't at his traditional spot. Did something happen? No, someone would have come to get me. 

I was instantly fifty meters in the air and I could see a massive group of people all huddled around...oh wow, The Rolling Citadel was done and it looked like a giant four-story tophat/metal barrel with wheels, there was even a wrap-around balcony set into the fourth floor. The thing was filled with windows, but I moved to the top and held it in the air in front of the massive flag waving in the wind.

It was a massive drawn thumbs up in white in a black circle with two black stripes in the background with a white band in the middle. That was a perfect flag, and it must have been Cable's idea, man, I was going to miss him on this trip. I switched to fire and lowered myself from the top and dropped the last ten meters, stopping before I hit the ground and dropping the last bit. 

Trem's magic was good, but it was more for straight lines, but my thoughts were pulled away from that. The roar of the crowd made me pay attention, and I looked out across all the people that had come to say farewell for the next two weeks. A lot of things would change by the time I got back for both me and these people.

Kadence and Addel walked up beside me and each took a hand and stood proud with me in front of everyone. I turned to each other and gave them a kiss, this wasn't goodbye. They both smiled and told me how much they would miss me and not to worry, ya like that would happen. Throw anything asshole in front of me and I could destroy him, but being away and not being in control was hard, but I still turned to my people and spoke up.

"Hey everyone! Today is the big day that we put this giant metal tophat into the air and start spreading our reach. I told you all that I would change the world and that's what I plan on doing, but I need to have a place to keep all you people. While we are all going, I need the rest of you to Help Kadence and Addel prepare the city. Can I count on you, my people, to help out around the place?"

The roar of the crowd was deafening and I was glad to hear them all being so enthusiastic! The crowd of people broke up and started to go back to their daily jobs and to get the train back moving. These people still had the day ride to the border where we wanted to set up the city, so they couldn't just wait around.

I turned back and the rest of the people whole would be coming with up, but only Mishka and Arrentia remained. Both came and took my arms and led me to the back of the tophat and showed me the ladder they used to get to the entrance, but they both screamed bloody murder into my ears when I lifted us up...Instantly.

"Don't do that! I watched you instantly appear before and then slingshot into the sky! That was enough for me, just the normal fire flying or dragon for me please!"

"Sorry, hehe, lead one! I'll play nice!"

Arrentia looked like she was going to be sick as she opened the door for me and we walked inside our new fortress; I was pretty surprised by everyone waiting, It was like a captain walking onto the bridge, everyone stood up a little straighter and smiled. I walked into the metal covered room with three-meter ceilings and stations all over the place, yup, and it was going to fly, in space, if we wanted...my own space ship...wow. This was like one of those next-level moments and just to top it off, Trem walked over and asked.

"Ready to go, Boss?"

"Take us up Trem, five thousand meters! Let's take a look around and I need to talk to my council to figure out which way we will be falling."

I turned to my wives that were waiting in the center at a table built in the center support post, but I quickly glanced back to the front window. Sure enough, all I could see was blue sky, fucking wild. I turned around and took a seat at the massive round table. 

Alex, Kyra, Kalita, Mishka, Arrentia, Xelios, Wendy, Tescelle, Nuwari, and Titania all sat smiling back at me. That would take two breaths to say out loud! Well time to begin the council for taking over the world.
