《On The Run From A Dragon》Day Seven: Part Four

Chief was standing at the surface entrance when they got back. Tom sighed.
"Hey Chief, let me guess. Someone tied to move it and they got turned inside out."
She didn't say anything as she worked over that sentence.
"Wizard are you telling me I could have been turned inside out?"
Giving her a quick smile.
"Naa, but it could if you made it mad. That's why I put the warning on it."
She looked over at June.
"Is your wizard always this crazy?"
Glancing at Tom and then back at Chief.
"I've developed a liking for it."
The small gnome got a pained look when June leaned against Tom and giggled.
"Would say you two need to get a room, but you already have one. Anyways, Tom read this
rule book. June you may want to read it to, so you can remind him."
Heading them a small three ring binder full of pages. Before going inside Tom asked.
"Hey, you all did work round the fact that computers don't work round me right?"
She had a thousand yard stare. Trying to cheer up as he want on to tell her.
"But everything else still works, for most part. Maybe they can work after I put some velocity on the ship and then power them back up?"
This seemed to get her mind back in working order. She stared to pace back and forth.
"Shit, we haven't had this complex of a project all a long time. The sub was just something to kill time. Then you come along and say 'Hey lets make a space ship that can't ues computers May-Be some of the time'. Now we have to rework the design after working in that damned rock that made everything in the room lighter! We are going to nee-.

Tom bent over and grab her by an arm. In a gruff asian accent as he gestured with his hand to the elevator.
"Go."
Then making a walking animation with two fingers.
"Play."
She ran to the door and opened it and was bouncing from foot to foot inside.
"Come on, come on, come on are you two going down or not?"
As all three of them want down, she was fidgeting and hit the down button a couple of times. When they entered the drydock Tom yelled out.
"Stop!"
He shot out a crushing head into the air. June and Chief followed his gaze to a dark creature in the upper corner of the room. It was traped in a gravity well and doing all it could to get out. Tom dragged it over to him and got a good look at it. A cephalopod like thing with ten arms trying to grab onto anything it could as it spun round.
"I don't know how sent you, but I know you are looking through this thing. You may even be able to feel its pain. So heed my warning. Leave me alone."
Tom closed his head and light flexed round a very small white sun. With a wave of his other head, the airlock opened and the blazing ball shot in the ocean. It bubbled and hissed as it cooled. After closing the airlock doors, Tom said.
"For future designs, work fusion power into lager ships. I'm going to take a nap."

Katra
Kardin lived a happy and good life. That is, till he was given a strange orb by an even stranger man, maybe even a demon. He watches as his village is burned, the villagers slaughtered and his friend devoured. He escapes into the Jungle of The Gods, a place of ancient ruins and deadly animals. There, he is changed and his fate diverges from what should have been his death. Now he must forge his own path in a world of great beauty and power, where death lurks around the corner and battles between veritable gods are fought. Where nations clash and ancient beings destory civilizations on whims. But unseen cogs move under the surface, events transpiring beyond simple understanding. Strange and powerful items called Artifacts have started to reappear across the land of Auren, empowering their wielders far beyond what cultivation can give. The Traezar Empire and all of Auren are on the precipice of war and strange beings have started to emerge, all with an agenda of their own. Chaos is brewing, and Kardin must survive it, all while trying to attain vengeance and understand his strange and anomalous Katra. ***Current Schedule*** I am currently releasing 1 3,000(Sometimes I end up writing waaaay more) word chapter halfs every week. If there is not some sort of notice as to why I have vanished, then I'm probably dead. Let's hope I don't die then, eh? *Ducks under flying knife* I own this cover, put my own blood, sweat and an hour of my time into it. Ahahaha! This story is inspired (I stress this word, as because most of the story is different) by Will Wight’s Cradle. I highly recommend you read it! (Please for gods sake, if you have something to say, please do it in a curteous fashion. I don’t need any more maniacs flying at me and trying to stab me with sporks, I am already insane enough to fill that role.*Winks*) **What is This Story?** Think cultivation mashed with western fantasy, put into a pot to boil and then drunk while it's pipping hot. All the while a mad man(me) cackles insanely over the pot, stirring. It draws from xianxia lightly, which means no exasperated angry young masters. No “genuis” or “prodigy” MC, one that is not OP, or anything of the like. If you don’t like cultivation novels, this might still be up your alley. MC focuses on “Life Shaping”, see poll 2 for more Info. Warning! If your are squeamish, that gore and traumatizing content tag is there for a reason. I shall dive into both bloody and disturbing scenes and the questionable ethics of manipulating life, and some of it won’t be pretty. With a dose of realism added in. I do add my own evi- I mean despic- no, sorry, interesting twists aswell. >:) Also, I HATE info dumps! *Steps out of the way of a charging semi* Still not dead! Arc 1 (Kindling): Chapter 1 - 13 Arc 2 (Metempsychosis): Chapter 14 - 29 Arc 3 (???): Chapter 30 - ??? A disclaimer, I am new author and am still feeling out my limitations. This story is my hope of bettering my writing skills and to have fun. Buckle up and enjoy the insane journey that is Katra. (Pronounced as cah-tra)

The same applies to any sentence or paragraph that may sound unnatural in English.
