《Ruby_eyes》chapter 2: why do bad things only happen to me?
Advertisement
As the room is flooded with cold water, Ruby's body starts to glow and grow in size to the shape of a large salmon with razor jagged teeth popping out of her mouth as well as her distinct red eyes that have no iris or pupils making her eyes fully red giving off the illusion her eyes are made of rubies, once the water consumes her she gasps as water enters her newly formed gills starting her reborn heart. (Salmon x piranhas)
(Ruby):'cough , cough' " ow, I am never doing that again" Ruby turns around looking for anything still in the white room before swimming thought the crack in the ceiling.

. . . .
As Ruby escapes the white room she looks back and sees all along the white room was actually her own egg, after learning this she observes her surrounding, in the surrounding area there is a swarm of goblin-fish the same size as her, once she looks more closely she see the goblin-fish are all pushing each other out of the way to get to the corpse of something that looks like an eel crossed with a bloated puffer-fish, while they are swarming at the corpse they push each other into the protruding spikes, that if Ruby had to guess were secreting poison because the other goblin-fish that were pushed into them stopped swarming before floating slowly to the sand-bed, dead!
with her stomach growling, Ruby swims slowly and shake-fully towards the swarm since this basically her first steps/flicks, in Ruby's mind she just sees the idea that going for a hazard like that when the chance of success is absurd, so Ruby thinks -if I am going to eat something it will be for a better chance of succeeding than that-
after thinking this she looks at the swarm again then the corpses on the sand-bed, with little remorse she swims to the corpses on the sand bed that were her brothers and sisters, readying her jagged teeth before tearing into one of them.

(Ruby):'munch, munch' -this tastes terrible but i have to eat it to survive-
as Ruby finishes the first corpse 2 messages appear in-front of her.

(Ruby): -well nice and oops- as Ruby turns her head to see if the swarm of goblin-fish has no took notice of her action, luckily that has no noticed, so before they can notice Ruby repeat's the action again on another paralyzed goblin-fish for her own survival and with this another window appears again.
You have levelled up!
Access the status screen to allocate stat points.
(Ruby):-Sweet a level up 'status screen.'-
As she says this it seems the goblin-fish are finally slowing down when the status screen appears in-front of her replacing the level up message.

(Ruby): -well those are new, I guess but there already known to me but what do these green crosses mean?-
her thoughts are cut short by one of the goblin-fish from the swarm, trying to tackle her face first, but luckily Ruby sees it coming before it would hit and she evades in the nick of time.
(Ruby): -that was close- she though as she swam away as fast as she could away from the swarm, but this catches the attention of the entire swarm instead alerting them of her presence immediately to them, with little need for thinking the swarm chases after Ruby with all of their mouths open ready to consume her. . . .

8 170Villain as a Friend
What if your friend says that he wants to be a villain? Will you prevent your friend from falling into the circle of evil, or encourage him to do that? "I want to be a villain." My friend who has been accompanying me every day in my life said that. Only a few days after the launching of Realm Domination, a new VRMMORPG. At first, I thought he said that because he wanted to do role-playing in the game. But I didn't think he would truly be one of them. Become a real villain. He did some crimes like burning the village, murdering the whole cities, raping the women inside the elf forest, and do some massive magic sacrifice that needs mass murdering. Even if it's only in the game, I become to know my friend's true face is. I let him be for now because it's still inside a game. But it turned out to be worse than I thought.

The goddess picked him up. He tried to struggle free, but her grip only tightened. Eventually her thumb caught his head, pulling it backwards. He stared helplessly as she brought her free hand closer, revealing a small vial in her massive hand. She pressed it to his lips, and he felt the contents flow into him. He tried not to drink it, but his body would not listen. Despite his revulsion, his body ignored him by drinking deeply. "Drink and forget. I will give you everything you ever wanted. A loving family. A comfortable home. And then, " Her grip tightened, and forcing the air out his lungs. He coughed up the strange liquid and caused more to spill. “And then, you will pay for your defiance. On your twentieth birthday you will remember.” She pulled the vial away and turned him to look at her. “You will remember, just as everything you love is taken from you, right before your eyes…” Her voice trailed off and his world went dark. .... The above leads right into the story. The first chapter is a bit rough as the MC (a child at the time), hurts himself rather badly. I will try to include similar warnings on chapters as the story goes on, but I want to be up front that I may miss or forget things. Many of the tags are included so I can have flexibility writing the story. I am posting this largely to hold myself accountable to keep writing. Chapters will be short, but I am planning to post weekly. This is the first thing I have written (you've been warned). I am enjoying the story and I hope you will too. Please feel free to let me know what you think of the story as it progresses.
