《The Journey Of A Reluctant King》Back Safe
Advertisement
I get up and run towards the hatch
"I'm here "
I shouted back my voice horse from all the smoke i jump into the cargo bay and the hatch closes behind me i immediately take a big lungful of air and start to feel dizzy i am about to fall when Sam grabs me to hold me up.i look up my vision a little blurry from the sudden intake of clean oxygene i see Sam's face looking down at me he looks happy.
I lay on the floor. I'm exhausted after all that. Sam sits next to me and says
" Are you okay ? Where are you hurt? is it serieus ?"
I look down on myself. I look like i just stepped out of a horror movie. I was drenched in blood, some of it had dried and the rest of me was covered in dirt that stuck to me like bird feathers in tar.
" im okay its not my blood.... mostly "
I say to Sam he looks relieved to hear it " Nice going with the fire work i recognised the pieces of your shirt "
"Thank god i was worried you would think it was an enemy attack "
Iget up from the floor. I really need a bath. I stink to high heaven and i need to clean my wounds before they get infected. Sam lends me a hand and I ask him where the shower room was . He pointed down a hallway and said:
"3rd door on the right these are old style ships trained on one back in the day"
I nod thanks and head to the shower i take off my clothes or what's left of them as quickly as i can i jump into the shwoer turning on the hot water. The water runs down my face washing all the blood and dirt off. I drop to the floor the realization of what just happened today finally hitting me. I almost died multiple times and I ... I killed people the image of that woman's head exploding in front of me pops into my head the scene playing over and over again. What could i have done differently did i have to kill her? The scene played in my head like a never ending movie. I sat on the floor of the shower letting the water wash away my sins. About 30 minutes later when the water was starting to get cold and i had managed to get all the blood off me I opened the door. I saw myself in the mirror. I saw the deep gash in my shoulder from when she threw the knife at me. I saw the hole in my hand that was still slightly bleeding every movment of my fingers accompanied by pain. Then i look down and i saw a pair of neatly folded clothes placed on the counter. In that moment i knew that everything that happened i would do again, if it meant protecting the ones i care about. I won't let this hold me back. I have to grow stronger if i want to protect them. My heart felt lighter thinking about the ones i love but there was still a shadow in there that would follow me around as a reminder to never get complacent again.

I pick up the clothes Sam had prepared and got dressed. I took one last look in the mirror and walked out. I arrive at the command center and see Sam pacing around the room , Vion is standing next to the pilot who i regosied as the man from the front desk. Sam spots me coming in and runs up to me grabbing me he hugs me tightly and says
" i'm really glad you're not dead " i chuckle
"me too i see everything worked out on your end then. Say would you mind having a look at these ? '' I say, showing him my wounds
" why didn't you show me that first? " he said, going to get a medical kit . Vion and the pilot walk up to me
" for what it's worth nice job coming back alive i didn't think you had it in you "
Vion said while giving me a thumbs up the pilot walks up and gets on one knee " Prince my name is Farth i sincerely apologise for not recognising you when we first met. I should have known you were of the royal family. With your ink black skin and these horns please forgive me i was so excited to meet other people that i wasn't paying proper attention "
I look to Sam who looks away quickly with a guilty look on his face . Vion doesn't seem surprised either so she either figured it out on her own or something was said during the mission to get the ship. I sigh
"please stand. There is no need to stand on ceremony besides i am on my quest to become King so at this time i am just like anybody else please treat me as such. "
He slowly stands and gives me an affirmative nod . I wince as Sam sticks the needle in my shoulder

" Bear with it , it will be over soon "
That's easy for him to say he's not one with a needle in him . He gets finished up on my shoulder and i feel like i need another shower i am covered in sweat. He takes my hand next and looks it over . Vion comes up to have a closer look as well they both look at it then each other
" What's wrong ? "
I say a bit worried. I don't know why he can't just sow it just like the last one.
" I don't think i can't fix this hole we are going to have to get you to a doctor " said Sam
" i know a doctor. He can fix that up in no time " said farth we all looked at him with skepticism
"I swear tomorrow when we reach the planet i will introduce you but fair warning he's a bit .... eccentric "
" So long as he can fix it who care" said sam he bandeged my hand up to keep it clean we will get this sorted soon i promise . My stomach growled " Good but right now i would kill for some food " everyone gave a little laugh.

Transposition
Please note: the Sexual Content tag is there due to a single brief plot-relevant scene, which has a warning at the beginning. For other details, read the full description below. Rating breakdown, since that should be public info: 5 x 5*, 2 x 4.5*, 1 x 0.5* During a blackout, a frail and ragged old woman stops to ask for a glass of water from a backyard barbecue party. Given a good supper instead, she looks around the group, and tells them, "Be who and what you truly are." Days later, seven of the people from the barbecue find themselves drawn into a trap laid by a pair of wizards and their accomplices, who kidnap them into a bubble reality. All seven, who have known each other all their lives, are informed that they are not in fact entirely human: they have active fae blood, due to a series of conditions culminating with the blessing of the elderly fae woman. The transformation into fae form comes as a shock: all seven, whether originally female or male, find themselves now unreasonably beautiful women. More urgent even than that, though, is their captivity. Getting back to the real world is a higher priority than this metamorphosis that rapidly begins to feel natural... but this is only the first step, as the diverse types of fae blood they carry begin to surface. With no resources except themselves, how can they escape this prison? If they succeed, how can they possibly reclaim their lives? Just how many other faelings have been kidnapped, anyway, and what happened to them? And is there a way to make sure that their captors never put anyone else through this? Back in the real world, Kayla, who learned long ago to trust her gut instincts, is absolutely certain that something is very wrong. The pattern in the list of missing friends is easy to spot, but makes no sense at all. Then a young woman turns up at the backyard gate who knows more than she should, and even though her explanation makes even less sense, every instinct tells Kayla that Riley is her only way to get them back. If they're not quite what they were, well, that's a bridge to cross later... Just a little note: I'm a big believer in endings that are upbeat but not candy-coated, and not a fan of grim-and-gritty or of glamorized violence. These are adults in a difficult situation. However, no one gets raped, and the physical violence is, all things considered, fairly minimal. There is some harassment, sexual and otherwise, and also some mild restraint and mild verbal abuse. Complicating factors are generally wizardly or fae in nature. If I need to warn you about gender in this being all over the map, some of it reality-based rather than fantasy-based, highly diverse sexuality, or that there is (especially later) some indirect fetish/BDSM imagery and honest character discussion, then you probably should just avoid everything I write. :-) Also available on Scribble Hub.

Silver Wings
Luna doesn't remember much about herself. The faces of her family and friends, even her own name, she can't recall anymore. All this happened after she came to the world of Arkon. But wait, no matter how I look at it, isn't this too much like an RPG?! *Am influenced by many light novels, and some stuff I read on this site... I especially stole a bit of stuff from "So What if it's an RPG?!" since I read that the most recently. Translations can be found on scrya's site. Akatsuki no Yona also big influence =w= *Cover art is not mine, credit goes to... idk where credit goes to cuz I found it off google after searching Ashe from LoL fanart :P

Mistwalker Xyn and the Cult of Eldritch Evil
[Participant in the 2020 Royal Road Writathon Challenge] Having just graduated to adulthood, Xyn is salty about how his lackluster Awakening has resulted in his current derided status within his clan and tribe, particularly when compared to the successes of his litter-siblings. The revelation of the truth about his heritage sets in motion events leading to him traveling to human lands on a secret mission for his tribe. Cringeworthy moments and awkwardness will ensue as young Xyn (an anthropomorphic tiger-kin), raised in the sheltered life of a martial artist, navigates human society with a trusty sidekick or two picked up along the way and might just save his corner of the world while he's at it. Gore will be minimally present as needed to tell a fantasy martial arts tale. There won't be any sexual content, but mild/vague suggestive themes may occur occasionally due to the nature of Xyn's mission and his insecurities. Story should be teen appropriate. Thanks for reading! [Background for the cover art is courtesy GG-graphics via Pixabay.]
