《Game Over》Chapter 2

As Zero opened his eyes, he found himself in a strange corridor lined with torches that looked like they were nailed to the walls.
"Ack. What the hell? Where am I?" He muttered to himself as he staggered up and dusted off his clothes.
Ding!
[You are currently in an unnamed Tier 1 dungeon, commonly formed when mana irregularities appear.]
"Mana irregularities? Wait, who the hell are you?" Zero spun around as he tried to locate the unknown entity.
[I am currently residing inside of your soul. You do not have to worry, only you can hear me.]
"Yeah, I don't think that's what I'm supposed to be worried about right now. Who the hell are you and where am I?"
[I am your personal system, host. You are currently in the world of Aurim within a first tier dungeon.]
"I-I, what?" Zero stuttered. "This is the kind of stuff that only happens in those fictions I read, right? I must be dreaming, there's no way that this is possible."
[Rest assured, you are not currently in a state of unconsciousness. I can, however, trigger the nerves responsible for registering pain in your body to prove that this is reality.]
"What? No, wait. Don't do that please."
[Very well. However, you should try to escape the dungeon as quickly as possible. It is unsafe. Please proceed with caution.]
"Huh? What do you mean?" Zero called out. "Hey, are you there?"
Zero frowned as the self-proclaimed system didn't respond.
Bastard. Seriously, what the hell is going on right now? The first thing I need to do is find some other people who know what's going on. I can't just stand here forever and just starve to death. I need to get going as soon as possible. But...

Zero looked around him. Both directions of the corridor he was trapped in seemed to stretch on endlessly with no exit in sight.
...where the hell am I supposed to go?!? I can't just be wasting time here, I need to get going. And that "system", it's dangerous. It can trigger nerves in my body, so it can probably mess with it as well. I don't know the full extent of what it can do, but it's best to be cautious of it for now. Hmm... what should I do?
Zero looked at the walls for clues and noticed that the torches seemed to slant more in one direction than the other.
It's almost as if it wants me to go in that direction... then I'll just do the opposite.
Zero started walking down the corridor that seemed to stretch on infinitely.

The Helena Chronicles
Espers are really no different than humans; they look like any normal human and in general behave like any normal human. However, there are a few key differences. The max life expectancy of espers ranges from forty-five to fifty. They naturally have a knack for mathematics and are extremely intelligent in general, this is because their abilities rely on the subconscious and conscious calculations. They also have a mysterious energy source they call Focus that is generated naturally by all espers. The continent of Elestveeve is populated by three major factions, each a governing force. On the west of the continent, there is the Noble Houses that subscribe to the Deity Faith. The Houses ruling with the Deity Faith as council since the religion's founding four-hundred years previous. Controlling most of the northeast is WITCH, an organization ruled by powerful espers; claiming the mysterious Genesis as their capital, they are a whispered myth among much of the continent's less technically advanced residents. In the southeast you have Tech City, a towering monolith of a capital with four sky layers and metropolis' leveled deep underground; it is a city brimming with technical advancement and cyber integration. Each faction contends with one another for their evolutionary ideology, by devout religious worship to receive miraculous gifts, unique genetic lineage to obtain ESP, and technological integration to become something more than human. Helena, a young genius and esper, awakes in a dark room with only fuzzy memories and the company of seven other children. She must determine how she got there and how to get back to where she came from. Warning: Due to time constraints, I don't have the time to keep up on my three stories; therefore, Helena will need to go in a stasis chamber until I can find more time to write between work and life. I love my first girl so much! however, it seems she is the least popular among the fans (the poor girl T_T). This world is much bigger than my other two novels and I'm not giving up on it, but simply having to put her on ice.

The Tower Trials
"The Towers have stood for centuries. They offer riches and power in equal measure to those that are brave, strong, and lucky enough to overcome their Trials. Isaac has arrived in time for the annual Novice Trial where young men and women aged 16 through 18 are set to enter the Tower for their first time. Novice Trials are a rite of passage, and though one is not required to take it, one cannot develop their Mana System without it. However, the trials are deadly, and there are always some that go in, but never come out. Regardless of the danger, Novice Trials are required for entry into any of the four grand academies. Those that survive the trials are able to gain experience and level-up as they ascend the different floors of the Towers." The Tower Trials is my first attempt at writing. Reviews and constructive criticism are highly encouraged and appreciated!
