What The Luck!? Chapter 87
Advertisement
Garnet decided it was best to leave onyx be for a while and grabbed the snacker, Laura, and headed back to camp. Jackson and Asher followed her afraid that Onyx might get angry again if they started there. The walk back was becoming dark and Garnet continuously mumbled about troublesome campers.
"Jackson you know where the normal cabins are, you can head there unless you are choosing a night lesson. Laura, if you raid the kitchen while I sleep your world will end. Other than that good luck with your sleeping arrangements. Asher," she sighed loudly knowing that she would be stuck cleaning the luxury cabin the next day. "Let's go to the luxury cabin."
With that, the two went off from Jackson who was looking back where he had been reading. The odds of him sleeping were slim. He was trying to remember all of his knowledge on uprooted plants to fix the tree and keep it alive. The fear of it dying would keep him awake anyways.
"Laura you know you can't sleep in the cabin too right?"
Laura was walking with Garnet and Asher toward the large luxury that Asher had gotten lucky to win a night stay in. "Yeah? Well I can look, right? It's one of those look but don't touch rules." She smiled smugly at him as she said this.
Garnet wasn't paying much attention, she was still trying to make sense of the weird set of events that had led to the prior drama. Having a camper go off trail thinking they were following a trail was fairly common, but having one actually find a way up the mountain was unheard of.
'I wonder how soft the bed is.' Asher's thoughts were on one thing and one thing only; the bed. He couldn't think of anything better to get rid of the stress than fall back in to a heavenly mattress.

Garnet pulled her keys out and unlocked the door. "You can sleep here for one night. After that, if you're still here I will let Onyx kick you out."
"Understood." The threat was enough to make Asher sweat a little since he knew that Onyx would not be gentle.
"Come on, open it Asher, I want to see before I ask about how many points I have." Laura was bouncing in place like a little kid waiting for their favorite television show to come on.
Asher took the advice and pushed the door open to reveal the entirety that was the luxury cabin. His eyes fixed in the large bed with joy, but there was more.
His face slowly became quizzical, "you didn't think it was some spa did you?" Garnet had an evil smile as she stepped through the door.
"The bed is made to help relax muscles after training, it is high quality so be careful. The mirrors and television are linked so you can see suggestions on your posture and form when you practice any moves. There are weights along that wall and there is a shower over there. If you need teaching you can use the videos over there to play back moves that our staff recorded."
Hearing that the room was mainly high tech training stuff made Asher flinch even more. 'This is just a gym with a bed!' His inner cries were nearly audible as Garnet dragged Laura back out of the room and shut the door.
Now that he was alone he took the time exploring the luxury cabin finding that it was indeed a gym with a bed. The only notable feature that seemed luxurious was that the shower had an assortment of muscle relaxing shampoos so that he could stretch sore muscles more easily.

Feeling dispirited he decided that he might as well see what the television had in store for him. 'Is there even a remote? Where is the dang power button?" Asher searched everywhere not seeing a remote in the room nor any power button anywhere. "How does this stupid thing work!?"
His annoyed shout seemed to work some magic. "Welcome to elite fitness home gym model S rank. Thank you for your support. What would the user like to do today?" The sweet robot voice spoke out and showed a myriad of work out options on the screen.
'This is awesome, it's voice activated.' This was very impressive to Asher since this was such a high tech feature. He even noticed that there was a body outline of him on the screen which followed his movements. His reflection in the mirror was even shown which meant that the mirror was recording his movements.
"The user is unranked and had no registered identification. Would the user like to create their avatar?"
"You know I do!" Asher saw a 3D model of him pop up on the screen. He saw a selection of black spaces including his name and nickname. He also noticed places for his super power and age input. The elite fitness home gym was really something else.
"Asher Ronan, Lucky Jinx super power," Asher was about to say a nickname for his avatar but realized he didn't know what he would be called. He had never had a nickname that he used freely. The only ones he had from his previous world were insults others had used on him.
'Should I just use my super power as my nickname? But it's not cool...lucky dragon? Noooo, lucky charm? Weird cause that's what Art and Jane call me….I guess I am kind of protected by my luck right? If someone is mean to me my Jinx power should stop them and my lucky power just makes me lucky. If I use providence as my avatar name it is pretty cool and intimidating."
Asher thought he had just come up with a gem. The name carried a heavy weight with it and would say he is in a state of being protected by his super power. It would definitely be something that he was a tough opponent to mess with. Feeling like he had just found the best name he gave the name to the elite home gym, "My nickname is Providence."

As a first time writer, I'd love some constructive criticism as well as general comments about my work as a whole. This story is something I've been kind of thinking about for the better part of a few months and I actually got anxious enough to attempt to put it in writing. Releases may be sporadic as I'm currently in school, and chapter lengths will vary depending on how much I feel i need to write to get my point across. The tags are temporary and may change. I plan on using a cultivation/mana system as this will be somewhat of a crossover
