《Go Here Do That: Kid Wizard》Chapter 2: The ground is alive
Advertisement
The earth fell silent as Ainsley lowered her hands. She blinked several times as if she’d just woken up. “Did it work?” she mumbled groggily, surveying the grove for her friends. All of her friends laid on the ground sprawled out, looking dazed. Ainsley frowned in confusion trying to process why friends were on the ground.
The leaves of the grove rustled as new tremor passed through the earth. “What the shit just happened!?” Richard picked himself up from the ground. Ainsley thought he looked awful, as if he had paled by several shades. Richard’s eyebrows creased as he looked around taking stock of his surrounding. Birds, squirrels and insects all now laid in the grass unmoving.
“What happened to the animals?” whispered Richard to himself.
A second tremor passed through the earth, deeper and more powerful. The trees and bushes around the children shook violently as terrible ripping sounds rose from the earth.
The ground around the children surged, violently tearing long gashes into the earth, spurting forth a purple fog tinged by a yellow haze. The rends in the earth belched clouds of dust, dirt and rot into the air.
Skeletal hands rose from the fissures sinking their fingers into the earth. Scapulae, femurs and finger bones rose from the ground knitting themselves into grotesque simulacra of humans and animal. All manners of skeletal remains surged from the ground, long dead corpses rose up from the rends in the earth.
The Morne, Chelsey and Richard screamed, fleeing towards the escarpment as Ainsley heard Richard yelling “oh shit, oh shit, oh shit!”
The shambling dead made their way towards the group as they tried to escape fleshless hands. One caught hold of Ainsley’s ankle, sending her careening onto the ground. She grunted as she hit, dropping her wand. In desperation, she kicked at the skeletal appendage until she shattered the old, brittle bones. Freed, she scrambled away from the remnants of grasping appendage, frantically searching about for her wand.

She was brushing her hands in through the grass when her fingers brushed the familiar aluminum grip of her wand. She pulled it out and screamed “START CASTING FUCKING SPELLS!” as she pointed her wand at the closest undead. Ainsley yelled the power word for wind summoning tight gusts of air. She sent them to blast a skeletal deer that bounded towards her out of the horde. The deer blew apart in a shower of bones that disappeared into the growing swarm of undead.
Ainsley rose to her feet. She looked back to see her friends scrambling up the escarpment while attempting to cast spells into another growing mass of undead. Flashes of light lit up the forest as Ainsley ran towards the base of the slope and she heard Richard yell “Seriously Morne, Dazzle!? They’re bones! What do you think it’s going to do? They don’t have eyes!”
“I don’t know a lot of attack spells you dickhead! It’s not like they teach us how to fight skeletons in class!” Morne retorted.
Ainsley ran towards her friends dodging small pockets of the shambling dead as she rose up the slope. She crested the ridge just as the largest horde crashed against the base of the cliff. “Run, RUN! RUUUN!” she screamed as she blew past the group, her lungs burning with every step. The rest quickly following on her heels.
They reached their bikes when Ainsley finally realized something was terribly wrong.
“Where’s Mike!?” She looked through her friends as they grabbed their bikes. Richard skidded to a stop to look back at her “He fell down when whatever the hell you did went through him! I’m not going back!” He turned to the forest to see several squirrel carcasses burst through the foliage then took off up the road.

Chelsey looked back at the forest with concern. “I didn’t see him after it started raining yellow.” She said quietly.
“Get out of here!” Morne yelled and sped off on his bike. Chelsey gave Ainsley another brief look before following Morne back to town. The first of the humanoid skeletons burst through the trees as they pursued the group. Ainsley took one more look at the forest, tears streaming down her face, before jumping on her bike and pumping her pedals as fast as she could.

Spirit Realm
Thirty thousand years ago, the Heaven Fighting Race who called themselves “Gods” invaded the Spirit Realm. Hundreds of races rose up in resistance, but ultimately suffered a crushing defeat. The Human Race was the first to concede, and the rest of the Hundred Races soon followed in succession. During the subsequent ten thousand years, all of the races were enslaved by the Heaven Fighting Race. They were cruelly treated, and lived beneath the shadow of terror. The Heaven Fighting Race’s march of conquest did not stop there. With the Spirit Realm as the starting point, they invaded other secret dimensions, and spread war to all corners of existence. After greatly exhausting their combat strength, they were finally defeated by the Hundred Races who took advantage of this opportunity. With no other choice, they fled to the starry skies outside the realm. Thirty thousand years later, in an era where the Heaven Fighting Race has already faded to become ancient legend, an amnesiac youth possessing the Heaven Fighting Race’s bloodline is being fostered in an insignificant household. Whilst struggling to live on, he silently awaits the day of the bloodline’s awakening.Thank you for reading novel Spirit Realm @ReadWebNovels.net

Grey Worlds
A mysterious incident occurred on a otherwise normal science centered world where all of the children from the age range of eight to sixteen suddenly vanished. “Where have their kids gone and will they ever return?” The now childless parents never got to really ask that question, because a strange new element replaced their lost children. This element slowly mutated the various animals that they once ruled over with their technology to the point that they were immune to their modern weaponry. The barren land of savages on a continent far away from theirs also had their children taken, but they easily mutated just like the beasts and only grew stronger thanks to the incident. A revolution of animals eventually took place after the mutations started to cause the animals to understand just how badly the humans ruined their lives and planet. Humans were the slowest to figure out how to use this strange new element to evolve, while their opponents were evolving and growing stronger by the day they couldn’t even surpass their modern technology. When humanity was on the brink of extinction a long forgotten event finally ended and their children finally started to return from the various worlds they were summoned to! It turns out that the mysterious new element that they didn’t know what to call was mana and that it’s everywhere in some fantasy planets. The children brought back a increase in technology and techniques to grow stronger with, which caused the humans to finally be able to build safe havens for their race. They grew stronger and started to finally adapt to their brand new environment. This is the story of a orphan who was taken away from his world, before he could gain a sense of attachment to the world. Who only has his older sister to care about and how he ends up adapting to the new world in front of him.------------------Dog notes by doggo First 'five' chapters aren't what the story is really about and is more of a prologue. The reason why some are separated into parts is because Doggo originally posted them as a entire chapter. The main setting is Ghost's actual world and not any foreign world. So this story was already posted once to another site or this site three years ago… and Dog is finally ending that three year hiatus! The explanation on why Dog was on a three year hiatus would of been written in the review section, but rrl doesn't allow self reviews. I'd have to create a alt just to self review which they obviously don't want even tho I'd not give myself any stars so its going to be here instead. The update schedule is a chapter a week till Dog get a editor and then two chapters a week till Dog gets enough money to pay for Dog’s bills. The final goal is to release a chapter every other day. Dog writes 4k word chapters so they are about twice as long as some of the other authors so every other day is actually more like once a day. ------------------- The part that was supposed to be the 'review' which Dog wont bother editing out repeat infomation since it wasn't supposed to go here in the first place. The first thing Dog will go over is what changed for the first 5 chapters, so that anyone who still remembers Dog's little novel and wants to continue from where Dog originally left off can decide whether or not to reread it. Also Dog is moving over to qidan simply because dog like the app they have. Dog won't go premium even if Qidan tells dog to and will simply move back to royalroad or create a blog.The things that changed over the years are mainly two important things. The first is that Dog changed the first person point of view to a third person, because Dog read a really bad first person novel and it reminded dog of dogs own novel. Dog also changed the thoughts of the character to be - - instead of italics. Finally dog changed chapter 3 completely to make the mc not seem like a homicidal maniac and introduced a important character in chapter 3.What happened to do in the three years that dog was away? Was dog at college and now needs money to eat? Was dog off in space after successfully becoming a astronaut and has now returned home with a completed novel or two? The answer is actually quite plain dog graduated from highschool and was supposed to only spend a year at dogs owners house to choose what major dog wanted to go to college for.Dog didn't do that and is still stuck with dogs owners and is sick of being a neet. Dog wants to move and buy doggy food, but dog is antisocial and doesn't want to work a simple 9 to 5 job for the rest of dogs life. Dog is a reader before dog is a author and the reason why dog got into writing was because dog wanted to write a novel without all the things dog finds annoying. Dog spent the first year reading various novels and dropping various novels. Dog is all caught up and has to much free time on dogs paws. The first year that Dog took off was the very same year that qidan came out so dog was naturally overloaded with free chapters. But now that pemium exists dog naturally has to limit the amount dog can read. Dog is addicted to reading like my very own readers and can understand your frustrations for dog disappearing for 3 years.Dog decided that dog will go back to writing 2 years ago. Dog wanted a decent stockpile incase dog has any other emergency so dog didn't post for a year but then dog decided to change the point of view which took another year.Dog has a patreon page https://www.patreon.com/mclaindog but there isn't any tiers there or goals till dog gets a editor. My final goal is to release a chapter every other day, but as long as Dog gets a editor Dog will do two free chapters a week.Dog will probably also make a kofi for anyone who just wants to send dog a tip and can't afford to donate money monthly while maybe having bonus chapters if the tip jar gets filled.
