《On The Run From A Dragon》Day Ten: Part Two
Advertisement
Zabel offered Tom a mental thanks and he responded with a your welcome. They stopped and stared stupidly at each other. Tom said what they were both thinking.
"That was weird. This is going to take some time to get use to it."
She rub at eyes.
"Right, I'm going to get a shower. Do you want to look over Silent's curse now or when your done Sr.?"
Tom didn't care either way.
"Now is fine. Also, you don't have to Sr. me all the time, you know."
As she walked to the door.
"I know Sr."
He grumbled to himself when she want outside.
"Kobolds are strange girls."
Zabel chimed in his mind.
'I heard that Sr.'
Replying to her.
'And so is that.'
Wanting out side, her squadmates sat round the small barracks. Jester dealt a new card to Silent and asked.
"So serg, what's his name?"
Zabel raised an overhanging eyebrow.
"Who's name?"
Silent pointed to her office and Jester added.
"Yeah, what Silent said."
The sergeant sighed wearily.
"You already know his name."
Tick got up from her bunk and pulled out a ten as she walked over to Jester. Tock gone white with fear as Tick slapped the used ten next to Jester. In a quivering voice Tock begged to know.
"Ma'am is his name T-Tom?"
Some what confused, she answered with a yes. Tock put her head in her hands and mumbled about how they were all going to die. Tick pulled out ammo boxes and loaded clips into magazines. Silent began playing her last game of solitaire. Jester was laughing her ass off and said.
"Oh serg, you slimy gecko!"
Looking perplexed at the madness that has taken over her squad, Tom cleared up her confusion.

'They um, think we did it last night.'
Zabel face turned the same color red as her scale and horns. She growled in a low voice.
"By the gods, what is wrong with you all. We didn't do anything."
As they got quiet, she facepalmed and sighed.
"Silent he wants to see you next. I'm going to get clean upped."
Jester did a dance with her eyebrows as she stared Silent.
"Rock his world."
Silent tossed her cards at Jester as she got up. Tock asked out loud.
"Soo, we're not going to die?"
Tick peered down at a half empty ammo box and said grimly.
"Maybe, maybe not. We should get more ammo, just in case."
Silent tramped inside the office as his slammed the door closed. None of this made a sound of course. Tom was still setting on the ground and eating. She walked to his side so he could notice her and gave him a salute. Tom moved the tray from his lap to Zabel's desk, turning to get a good look at her.
"Ok, try making some noise."
Tapping her toes, clapping, flicking her fingers and yelling. She tried and failed. Tom was doing his magic thing and she could feel it on some level of her being. Her toe caused a tapping noise. Next her finger snaped and she let out a loud.
"Oh yeah!"
Making random noises as she asked.
"How did you do it?"
Getting a thinking face, he tried to explain.
"You had two spells on you at the same time. The silence spell should have only lasted for a day, but the suggestion spell some how got tangled up with it. I don't know how is doing it, but they kept refresh it... what are you doing?"
With a evil smile, she unfastened the buttons on her uniform.

Tale of Family - Book 1 - WIP
The world is peaceful in 2063. Fusion reactor and Diamon battery had taken care of the energetical problem. Countries were stable. Automation was everywhere. Life wasn't hard anymore, at least not in the United States of Europe. Summer break is about to start and, finally, Zoe will turn 18 and be able to play the game, Binding Fate. A simple video game, a vrmmo, but what swam under its surface wasn't simple. Power, fame and money were but the tip of the iceberg... State: Hiatus because I've an idea for another story. Quick F.A.Q. : - Yuri/female homosexual relation? Yes.- Yaoi/male homosexual relation? Maybe.- Explicit Sexual Content? Maybe.- Full Fledged Tragedy? No. Never, ever ever.- Body Modification/Body Horror? Yes. (Note: what one person think is body horror can be acceptable for someone else. If you want to see to what length I can go, read a bit of The Other Labyrinth. However, I won't go as high as quickly in the body mod/horror, so relax.- Gore? Hell yeah! I love gore! spraying blood and viscera etc...- Torture? Hurgh... maybe? Idk. Not at the start at the very least.- Memory loss/erasing? No, or at least not permanently. I basically hate this trope because it's like taking out all the character grow from a character, destroying everything that makes them what and who they are. so no.- Overpowered protagonist? You will see mufufu...- Will characters stay relevant seeing how numerous they are? YES, MOTHERFUCKING YES, I hate when characters relevance decay over time for no good reasons ^^'- Plot Armor? First of all, a definition: "Sometimes referred to as "Script Immunity" or a "Character Shield", Plot Armor is when a main character's life and health are safeguarded by the fact that he's the one person who can't be removed from the story. Therefore, whenever Bob is in a situation where he could be killed (or at the least very seriously injured), he comes out unharmed with no logical, in-universe explanation." (courtesy of https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PlotArmor I love you guys ^^) So now that this is said, do my characters have plot armour? No, because I always have an in-universe explanation, even if you don't know it yet ^^ Something is illogical or don't make sense? Read more, the answer is surely in the story ^u^- Balanced system? If you want to crush numbers and have a perfect equation balancing all the system, that's not the story for you. The system is more like a living being, and the rewards aren't forcibly tied to the level of the player. In fact, the system is purposely unbalanced ^^' Author's note: My goal here is to write a slow-paced story revolving around the bonds linking the characters, be them family, friends or lovers. Fight will be part of it, but I intend to build an actual interesting world before making truly large-scale battle happen, because the bigger a battle is, the larger its causes and effects are. I also aim at telling a story about how the characters actually help each other becoming stronger, more stable and happier. I particularly despise the lone MC type that becomes so powerful that every other character of the current setting become irrelevant beside being hostage targets, so this will not happen. I also like crafting, arrays, blacksmithing etc... so there may be crafting. Another thing I like is management game like sim-city or the like, so this while also appears, keeping in mind that I like MC's that make people around them stronger... For the tropers around here, a list of tropes that I like to use (note that I may not use all of them ^^) (this list will be updated as I dive deeper and deeper into our dear trope wiki.)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BodyHorror- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SealedGoodInACan- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/YouAreNotAlone- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ZombieAdvocate (In particular since I see a lot of things that aren't human as worthy to live and to live with)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EvenEvilHasLovedOnes- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EvenEvilHasStandards- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HeelFaceTurn- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CorruptTheCutie (Note: being corrupted don't mean you're a villain, only different than before.)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DefectingForLove (Of course.)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/VillainousRescue- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/InterspeciesAdoption (For the same reasons as zombie advocate, since I love family stuff)- https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BrokenBird (to go with corrupt the cutie if it's a girl)Cover: "The Bard" by John Martin, 1817.
