《On The Run From A Dragon》Day Five: Part Five
Advertisement
Coming out of the store, they saw loading the bike onto the back of a pickup truck. Tom was not amused by this. He rose a hand and the two men started to float and yelling. As they walked up to them June began to hop up and down with cheer.
"Are you going to turn them into frogs?"
The floating man heard this of course and realized how bad they goofed.
"Hey ummm, ˈMr.Wizard we're sorry. We'll put the motor bike back."
Tom just sighed as he let the spell go. They dropped to the ground and dusted themselves off as they got up.
"Fine, you two wouldn't know someone that needs the help of a wizard?"
One of them asked.
"Umm, what can all you do?"
Walking over to the bike, Tom turned off its gravity and moved off the truck, then to the groud.
"I'm good moving at stuff and destroying."
He looked a bit nervous when asked.
"destroying what?"
June was putting stuff into the side bags on the motorcycle when Tom replied.
"Anything."
The would be bike thieves told them about some different places Tom could try. He thought the junkyard would be promising and the dam construction may have some need of him. Only when all that failed, there was always the casino. Tom didn't feel like he had enough know how to get the bike to fly just yet. It's easy to get something in the air. Landing whiteout breaking something, not so much. The junkyard owner was a nice guy for the most part. He said that he would pay Tom two hundred move old cars to the back and pull the fresh one's to the front. Tom did have a fun time seeing how far he could throw empty car frames to the compactor. He got another hundred for getting a crane flipped right side up, but it took a lot out of him to do it. It was all most sunset when he got done and paid. June drove them to a nicer then average hotel for the night. When they walked up to the front desk, the receptionist gave Tom the stank eye. His coat and jeans were had dirt and rest all over them.

"Sorry Sr. but this hotel is for paying customers."
Tom looked down at his attire and then at June.
"Is it really that bad?"
She nodded and smiled because of what is going to happen next. The dirt, sand and even some rust drifted over to his right hand to make a mini planet. The poor girl at the desk looked like she was about to pee her pants as she said.
"We have a high rollers room that is ready for you and only cost a hundred this night."
June gave her the money and the receptionist handed her the keys. Still holding the mini planet, he told June.
"I'll see you up there soon, I'm going to get the bike."
She smiled at him.
"Ok, don't kill anyone this time."
The receptionist didn't say anything about that comment as Tom walk outside. Sitting down on the bike, he let the dirt ball go in the grass. I was an odd feeling to fall up and then to the side to get on the roof. The door to get inside from the roof was no problem for him. He just magnetized the push baron the inside to the door and it unlocked. June let him into their room when he knocked on the door. It was a nice room whit a view out the ocean and mini bar fridge. He got a shower and then ate some food. They watched some netflix before going to bed.

Beast
A threat to the galaxy has come from another, and the Union of intelligent life will go to any length to stop it. Military Quarantine has held for hundreds of thousands of cycles. Traders, merchants, colonists, and Pirates live risky lives along the fringes as the politics from the inner systems fail to see the larger threats beyond their borders. A lone human finds himself far from home with no memories to how he arrived. A failing Trade vessel plays on a desperate gamble, while a malicious parasite searches for a suitable host. ............................................. Author's note: Beast is a story that I wrote a long, long time ago. Some of you might have read it then, back when it was posted on reddit over at r/HFY. It was my first webfiction and made in the spirit of that subreddit's "genre" of humanity being awesome. But, it is also a story that has bothered me a little bit. Just like most new writers tend to do, I made mistakes and errors that feel painful to reread. A Space Opera will be a Space Opera, but I had prose that makes present-me cringe. Still, at the same time, the story is still very much a tale I've never given up on. It was my first adventure into fiction: Beast was a crazy adventure with bodysnatching aliens, galactic war, threats from across the universe... Posting this story here is a way to try and redeem myself a bit. I won't call it a complete rewrite, because it's not, but I have wanted to go through and correct some of the major issues Beast has for a long time and put it somewhere more accessible to read (instead of as posts/comments on reddit) and I figure that now is as good a time as any. Additional corrections you might notice are welcome.

The woman was just shot, as there was smoke trailing from the hole of the gun pointed at Michael's head. He didn't move nor flinch but before he could do anything a bullet quietly passed through his head killing him.
