《Ruby_eyes》prologue - the day i died from a stone.
Advertisement
The day was colder than usual with the late autumn wind blowing into my hair, in turn whipping me continuously all day with no end.
On this day I was to meet my 'many, many' friends near the old well on the outskirts of town, when I got there all '2' of my friends were there waiting for me.
(Friend 1):"what took you so long Ruby, you took the bet that you could jump the well, or were you lying just to get us to come here and laugh at you."
(Ruby) "yeah, yeah, make sure you have my fiver when I clear it easily"
after saying this Ruby pulled her jeans up and got up on the rim of the stone well before breathing deeply.
(Friend 2): " well you going to do it or what?"
(Ruby): "shut up I’m gon. . ."
as she was speaking one of the stones under her feet becomes dislodged causing the whole well to collapse, taking her with it.
(Ruby): "WHHAAAAAAAA-aaaaaa . . ." ('SMASH!!')
the two friends at the top of the well, after seeing the girl fall rush to the edge to look for her with one of them starting yelling,
(friend 1): " RUBY ARE YOU STILL ALIVE"
before they see into the darkness and finds the body of Ruby with pieces of wood around her head covered in blood they look at her corpse with faces that show sadness.
(Ruby's last thoughts) - as I fell down the well my life flashed before my eyes and I realize my life sucked; bad family, bad neighbourhood , little money, dying young, at least theirs a silver-lining 'no more school'-
as her body hits the bottom of the well, her head hits an old discarded bucket making it so shards of wood penetrate her skull killing her brain near instantly but with her last moments she makes a joke in her mind,
(Ruby): -its seems I've kicked the bucket-

Superpowers ... without capes. A man produces narcotic gas in his lungs, a woman turns into a wall of corrosive flesh. One girl creates tiny stinging 'mayflies' while another is assaulted by the emotions of anyone she touches. After the mysterious 'Seventeen Seconds' sweeps the globe, a handful of people develop extraordinary abilities. Rachel's father is one of them--and that's why she shoots him. But four years after she's charged with his murder, he reappears. He's rich. He's connected. And he's plotting to destroy a city. To stop him, Rachel enlists the help of Lark Larson, an easygoing slacker with bizarre abilities of his own. She doesn't have any powers herself, except for her unflinching willingness to put herself on the line. As far as Lark can tell, that's more than enough.

Embers in the Ash
Four ordinary young people from four corners of the Earth wake up on a hill in another world. Here, their very presence is a crime against the Gods. On the fringes of civilization, life is often brief and always violent, but in the Empire's Heartland, implacable hunters seek to rectify their blasphemous existence with Blade and Fire. To return home, they will need to adapt to a place where their life will be earned in steel. But what will they be ready to sacrifice for their goal? Will their flame flicker out like so many others before them? Or will they thrive as Embers in the Ash? Hello, and welcome to my first fiction on this site! Embers in the Ash is an epic fantasy adventure story that aims to span quite a few chapters (I hope!). To set expectations, this isn't going to be a LitRPG or power fantasy-style story. I'm aiming for a fairly grounded story set in a fairly high-fantasy world. I hope you enjoy it! For this first month of publication, my aim is to give you, the reader, something to really bite into. I will be releasing a chapter every day at 9:15 AM EST (13:15 GMT), as well as the occasional double chapter (which will always be announced by a post-chapter author blurb). Check in fifteen minutes after the first chapter's release! After this first month of publication, the aim is to go for either a weekly or bi-weekly release schedule, depending on the sort of time I can reliably dedicate to writing. Either way, settle in for the long haul, and welcome to the story!
