《P I G S》23. Bloodshed
Advertisement
After hearing Ezra’s revelation.
We rushed over to the church to get the plan into order.
I managed to get to the church first.
I rushed inside and halted after I entered the doorway.
A chill ran down my spine and my soul went cold.
If I felt no pain the sight in front of me might have made me rip my eyes out.
Blood was pooling on the floor.
Intestine, liver, heart all of them were on display as her body was torn apart and eaten.
It was a feast for cannibals and a horror to others.
Cheryl was dead.
She seemed to have died in her sleep as her eyes were closed and a gentle look was on her now a mangled corpse.
The next sight felt worse in a different way.
It was a familiar pregnant belly.
However, her face was unfamiliar.
It was the head of a chameleon.
Blood smeared on her face showing that she was enjoying the meal.
She was looking at me as if she was expecting my arrival.
Next to her was a small child.
He didn’t even notice me he was too busy eating the meal in front of him.
However, a voice emerged from Annabelle
“Wilson go fetch”.
He looked up excitedly while chewing on her left kidney.
My instincts kicked in and I turned around and ran as fast as I could.
I could hear Wilson laughing as if he was enjoying the chase.
I bumped into Jack who was right behind me.
He was surprised at me running away as he couldn’t see inside.
I screamed “Run!” as loud as I could and pushed him towards the other way.
The adrenaline seemed to hit him before he could even think what I said through and run in the other direction.

Ezra watched us and saw the thing chasing me and started running as well.
It was difficult to run over the pig corpses that covered the floor.
I looked back once which was a mistake.
It looked hideous.
Wilson was covered in blood and was striding towards us on four legs with his long chameleon tongue out.
He looked like a dog.
However, more worrying was that he was gaining and I was closest to him.
I wished that I had run track and field back in the day as I tried to sprint with all my might.
Suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my ankle.
I fell over in pain and screamed.
Wilson had caught up to me.
As soon as I hit the floor Wilson jumped on me and started slashing with his sharp nails and laughing.
I covered my face as blood spilled from my protecting arms.
I was going to die.
This scene felt nostalgic from when Ezra had saved me last time however, I couldn’t count on him this time.
I suddenly remembered the rule
‘never walk without a weapon whether that be a stick, knife. or guns always be able to defend yourself.’
.While he was slashing me in joy I managed to find a broken branch on the ground.
I grabbed it leaving a brief opening for Wilson.
I felt his claw dig into my left eye causing my sight in it to disappear but, it gave me enough time to grab the branch.
I used the sharp end of the branch and stabbed it upwards straight through his jaw.
It Pierced through his mouth and came straight out of his left nostril.
If this was a human it would have pierced his brain killing him instantly however on a chameleon it only went through the front of his face.

Completely missing his brain allowing him to live.
I smiled as at least in my last moments of living I fought back against death.
Just as I thought he was going to kill me his body went flying off my body.
I followed its trajectory and saw him hitting one of the last standing trees.
His body was flying so fast that as soon as he hit the tree his body exploded with flesh flying everywhere.
I looked to see the other direction that he came flying from and saw Ezra standing there.
He seemed to have punted him.
His eyes looked wild almost not human however, they quickly went back to normal.
“Martial arts are pretty strong!”
he said seeming to be a little shocked by his strength.
That wasn't martial arts I thought that was inhuman strength.
I paid no heed to it as he saved my life.
He helped me up and saw my injury on my leg.
He muttered profanities and was about to say something when a blood-curdling scream could be heard.
It was Annabelle.
She had seen Wilson's death and was furious.
Ezra saw her coming towards us and told Jack to help me walk.
As soon as Jack gave me his shoulder Ezra got into a fighting stance.
I wanted to help Ezra however, there was nothing that I could do.
All I could do was utter thanks under my breath and start walking away with Jack.
I looked at Jack and I remembered the sight of his sister.
I didn’t know how I was going to tell him however, that was a conversation for later.
I started to walk away thinking I was going to hear the sounds of combat however, a different sound rang in my head.
A gunshot.
I looked back and saw Ezra shocked as Annabelle fell over dead.
I then turned to see where the sound came from.
It was the Albino girl.
In her hand was a pistol and around her on a strap was what seemed to be an assault rifle.
She also had a knife strapped to her waist.
She seemed ready for a war.
She turned around and spoke
“Follow me”.

8 222Dear Spellbook (Link to rewrite in blurb)
A rewrite of this story has been posted here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/49881/dear-spellbook-a-fantasy-time-loop-rewrite Live. Study. Repeat. Tal is a sorcerer in a world where they are killed on sight, traveling with a man charged with carrying out the task. Every night Tal must pretend to study his spellbook to maintain his disguise as a Wizard’s Apprentice. If his disguise slips and his charade is uncovered, it will be his death. Seeking answers to mysteries that arose after his parent’s murder, Tal must accept any allies, no matter the risks, to uncover his family’s secret. But when he wakes up one morning to find himself trapped repeating the same day, he has to overcome his challenges all on his own. This story is an adaptation of a D&D campaign I ran but never was able to complete. I tried to capture the feel of a table-top RPG session —tropes and humor— without relying on the mechanics. This is not a litRPG or gamelit story and no D&D mechanics or system appear in the game. It follows one member of an adventuring party as he deals with the problems with that arise from being an adventurer. Namely, getting roped into adventures. The story has a time loop element, but will eventually move past that. This story explores the magic systems, the history, and the lore of the world through the lens of Tal's entries in his Spellbook and interludes from other written works in the world. New entries on Mondays Credit to JackOfHearts for the cover.
8 175STAGNANTE: Land of Stagnation
Brogdar's southern continent is known as the Land of Stagnation; rather than deserts and drylands, the land here is filled with harsh steppes. Monsters walk its plains and most nations send criminals who've murdered to die here. These criminals overtime formed clans and tribes that were able to carve an existence out of the massive continent, yet unable to break the flow of the god's minions. To this day, criminals still arrive and pray to join these tribes. And as the boats arrive from the northern nations, Ronin Londer discovers tribeless criminals that aren't able to join right away: Stagnante. The only question he faces now is if he'll survive. Set in the farflung corners of the setting created for STEM: The Topical Dungeon, Stagnante follows Ronin Londer trying to survive the land of stagnation. Monstrous beasts, other stagnante, and even the tribes themselves will stand in his way to finding a new life in this land. This series will release chapters at irregular intervals, with a focus on the story taking "as long as it takes" to be told right.
