《Unprecedented》Chapter 10
Advertisement
I couldn't believe my eyes when I entered the other side. I stood on a landing over looking a huge company of people in in black and grey suits, and by the looks of it they were busy. They were everywhere. Some were in offices, and some were hurriedly rushing off on errands.
Looking up the ceiling was long LED light, with a sky fly as it's touch.Then I felt a sudden jerk on my arm. My head snaps down and I look at Evan. "Yeah, yeah yeah," he grabs my wrist and starts pulling me. "We can do this later, I have a meeting if you don't mind and I'm late." I pulled a face and starts walking. "That's not exactly my fault, you were the one who over slept. Not me."
We stopped at a elevator and got in. After a few minutes the door opened with a 'ding' revealing a reception office with some doors and stairway. There was a brunette young woman sitting at the reception office typing ever so feverishly. She looks up as we exited and let out sigh of relief. "Finally you're here, your dad has been waiting for ages." Then her eyes landed on me which were strikingly hazel. "Evan," She said strictly. "Who's this? "
He stepped around her and put an arm on her shoulder. "Riley, this is my sister," He said casually. "Can you not say anything about this." He asks sheepishly. She then gives out an exasperated huff. "Evan, you know the rules. " She said, "She can't be here. She's not a member, and that rule is strictly followed." He shrugged his shoulders. "She asked me to come so I let her. If he's mad then he'll be made at me, not you I promise."Riley sighs then shrugs. "Okay," Then she turns to me. "I'm Riley, sorry about that conversation I'm sure you felt pretty comfortable." She smiles as we shook hands.I smiled guilty. "Yeah I did, just a little bit," I continued. "This is a secret agency after all."

She quickly passes glances and forth between Evan and me. "So she knows then?" She asks a bit intrigued. I chuckled a bit stiffly. "Yeah. I do."
"You probably feel so strange." She gave a light whistle.
"Wish I could get the deets, but you two should get going, like now."
We left the lobby and went up the stairs. We entered a hallway with bright green rough carpet and cream walls, a black double-leaf door and 2 elevators with a tall decor plant on both sides."You'll have to stay out here." Evan says quietly.
"Why?" I whispered back. He gave me a sarcastic look. "Oh gee, what a great idea it would be to crash an important." He whispers jokingly, "Hey dad I'm your Long Lost Daughter!"
I flushed pink. "Right. Whatever. But, where am I suppose to go?"
"You'll figure that out yourself, I have to go." He proceeds to the door. "Bye bye." And he slips through the door, leaving me alone in the empty (But very elegant decor I must say.) hall.
I groaned helplessly. "Great now what I'm suppose to do? And who knows when he'll be back?" Then I started observing my surroundings.
Well, guess I'll be exploring this place now.
I cautiously walked up to the elevator on the left. As it opened I walked in and, randomly pressed the button to the 3rd floor. The door closed and I was off to wherever the elevator took me to.

Re: Dragonize
After an unexpected turn of events, Drew must now survive in a world full of challenges with life-or-death stakes. Gone are the days when the biggest problems to face were awkward small-talk at physics department luncheons or mountains of lab work; this former physicist is now adrift in an unfamiliar land without any equipment. Now, Drew's only tool (if it can be called that) is a System, which provides constant reminders of all of the things that are still out of reach for a low-level being who's just arrived in a new world. Luckily, Drew has one powerful asset when taking on the challenges of this new world: surviving violent conflict is a lot easier when you have the power of a dragon at your disposal. Still, Drew has always considered violence a last resort. Why turn to fists (or claws) when a bit of quiet consideration might expose a better path forward? Maybe a life of quiet contemplation is still within reach for this former academic researcher. ...Or maybe not. It probably won't be a life of bloodless pacifism. Additional information for those who wish to calibrate their expectations (I'm adding this based on a few comments I received from readers who feel that the story is not what they expected from a dragon-themed story): Re: Dragonize is not a power fantasy -- or at least, it's not intended to be one. Re: Dragonize is a progression fantasy starting with a protagonist who must start at the bottom (or close to it), and work gradually upwards, making incremental progress with plenty of setbacks along the way. The protagonist, as someone coming from the world of academia, tends to be cautious, methodical, and contemplative. As such, expect this story to contain more than a few digressions as the main character takes the time to pontificate on a variety of topics ranging from Newtonian physics and horology to the nature of existence and the ethical dilemmas associated with being an obligate carnivore.

(DEMO) Colorless vol.1- Phantamoire Enigmata
This is a demo volume consisting only seven chapters. The sole reason of this publication is to show the world a glimpse of the project. Therefore, the final quality of the product will be lot more refined and polished. This demo might get deleted from RoyalRoad after the actual publication. Synopsis: "Knights wearing their shining armor serving righteous justice riding their glorious horses." We all have heard that story- Heroes who do the right in the purest way without any tampering. But, is it really that easy? Is the world and it's heroes really that pure? After all... fairytale is just a lie. I might be the first author in the world who despises writing. I haven't read any story books or novel in my entire life but children's story book (not even ten of them). So, why do I write? Simple answer- the story. Inexperienced I may be but I believe my project and it's quality. The actual story will be posted somewhere in 2019. The story will be devided into 7/8 volumes and 90 (approx.) chapters. I have been working on this project for 1 year now. It took me 5 months to finalize the concept and plot, 7 months for the story and it's already been 6 months in writing along with 2 times of total revamp.
