《On The Run From A Dragon》Day Four: Part Five
Advertisement
On the drive back home, Jimmy asked Tom.
"So, a voodoo doll?"
He let out a tiny laugh.
"Turn them into frogs?"
Jimmy gave him a quick look with a smile and then back to the road.
"How did you do all that stuff?"
Tom opened his mouth to say something, but stopped there. About a minute later he finely had answer.
"Let me put it this way. You see a guy in a car, so you throw him out and go for a joy-ride. Then stop and look under the hood. You may not know what all the wires and tubes are for, but it's easy to break it with a hammer."
Jimmy thought about that and wonder out loud.
"I guess wizards all have their own way of learning magic."
laughing as Tom recalled a memory.
"That asshole. I get it now."
He said this last part in a low mocking tone.
"All in do time."
When they got home, June's mom made a late dinner for them. As everyone was eating, Tom peered into the light of a candle on the table. Out of curiosity he tried to put mana in it by hovering his hand near it. The flame changed its shape to a three dimensional symbol and he could feel it draining him a little. He thought this symbol could mean multiple different things. There was a "Tom!" from June's mom and he jolted out of his trance to see everyone was looking at him.
"No magic at the table, now eat your food."
As she said this, Tom could feel a talon foot let go of his leg from under the table. He got back to eating his food with a yes ma'am and avoided eye contact with June who was across from him. When he was cleaning his plate in the sink and he did magic thing again to the water. June poked him in the side and asked him.

"Hey, you are going to make a spell book?"
Tom was dumfounded by this question.
"Why didn't I think of that? Yes, I am and at some point I would have to get a nice one. If you have a note book, I'll use that for now.
She seemed cheerful with this request as she set off to find something he could use. They both went round the house trying to find new magic symbol, but only got the one's for dirt or maybe earth. It was all most one o'clock after midnight when Tom started to feel the mana drain. He all most passed out from exhaustion as June helped him up the stairs and she put him in the bed to sleep.

Viridian Gate Online: Vindication (The Alchemic Weaponeer - Book 1) by N.H. Paxton
A Russian Weapons Engineer thought that escaping into a VRMMO would free him from the chains of his past; but even in the virtual world, old grudges still burn true. He must use his intellect and unique skills to make a place for himself within the next 5 days, or be forcibly dragged back into the very life he fought so hard to escape.
8 102Fantasy World
Spencer Underwood has little realistic hope of escaping his paraplegic, bullied, and friendless high school existence. At least until he and three classmates are unrealistically transported to Nibiru, a legendary fantasy world ruled by mythological gods and inhabited by strange races and nightmarish monsters. Spence can walk again, which is good considering he will have to use his online fantasy role-playing game experience to lead the dysfunctional party on the gods’ quest and summon the courage to finally stand up to Trey, his worst bully from school. Success means survival and earning respect and acceptance, especially from Morgan, his attractive but snarky Goth classmate. But Spence discovers Nibiru is more a world of science fiction than fantasy, and they are just unwitting pawns in a deadly scheme of the gods. If completing the quest doesn’t result in their return to Earth, the party may have to do the unthinkable and challenge the gods themselves. (The novel is complete at 56 chapters, so feel free to jump in without fear of it fizzling out in a premature demise.)

8 88Evolution of the Lazy Gamer by Bruticus
It had been five years since the game Royalroad first appeared. A new expansion had been released and one person was assigned by his company to review it. That was the beginning of the story of a lazy, unheroic character who would meet others just as lacking in the heroism department as he was. Still life (or virtual life) throws you curve balls and you never know what will happen.
