《On The Run From A Dragon》Day Ten: Part Eight
Advertisement
Tock and Jester returned to the inside of the SUV as their superiors walked down to the second level. Tick rotated her turret like an evil villain to talk to all of them.
"So, it would seem that the sergeant is now the First Claw's secretary."
Jester took in a joyful gasp of air, but before she could say anything. Tock put up a shaking finger as her voice cracked with fear.
"No, no, no. Don't say it."
Tom altered his vision to infrared as Zabel walked next to him. Dull red lines of electricity or water ran through the cold dark concrete as he examined the walls. On the other side of the garage, there were rows of different type parked vehicles. Two large ogre girls patrolled in between them and a third was standing over by a fire exit door. They held huge wooden clubs and had a flood light on their shoulders. Zabel asked over the mental link.
'Sr. should I take them out?'
'I got them.'
All three of the orges fall over with a echoing rumble.
'What did you do to them Sr?'
'I crushed their brains. Don't know if the hivemind picked upped what happened to them or not.'
'A hivemind is here? Can just the two of us do this mission Sr?'
'Yeah, we got the dakka for it.'
They slowly ambled to the door that was being guarded. Tom pulled out a small mirror and box of fireworks poppers as he let the microgun hang on its sling. He placed the mirror against the door and used some divination mana.
'There are five guys with P90's and one of them is sitting behind sandbags with a 50-cal. After them is a staircase that goes down. Seems like the hivemind knows we're here.'

Zabel got to one side of the door as Tom put away the mirror.
'Breach and clear Sr?'
'I'll pull the door out of the wall-' He flourished the box of poppers. 'and then toss in some of these.'
She set Tom the memory of him fire balling her jeep off the road.
'Is it going to be like that Sr?'
'Um, no. It should be more like a flash bang and sorry about that.'
'Its ok Sr. I world have done the same thing.'
Tom did a three count and wrenched the filthy door off its hinges with a magnetic tug. The three poppers shot into the dingy room like angry hornets and then exploited with force of TNT. This cause a tiny chain reaction as some of the ammo inside cooked off. Tom stomped his foot as he emitted an EMP through the under ground floors and Zabel entered the smoking room. She finished off one of still living men and put two HEAT rounds into a minotaur run up the stairs. Tom fell in behind her as walked across the small room.
'That was not a flash bang Sr.'
'I way have overdone it a bit.'
As they walked carefully over the dead minotaur, Tom dropped another popper down the chipped and cracked stairs. Using a unique mix of fire and Electromagnetic Mana™, he got the favorable reaction he was looking for. Random gun fire shot up at them after the flash bang. Zabel leaned over the railing and shot two round bursts into an armed man and zombie. Even after losing the lower half of her decaying body, the zombie kept firing her gun. Zabel put one more explosive round into her deformed skull. They levelled their guns at the heavy metal door at the bottom of the staircase. Steadily advancing all the way down, Tom asked.

8 575Ari-os
Ari-os is a story about a 21-year-old woman who woke up in an abandoned lab with little to no memories of her past. Turns out she is in the future now and the world became a very different place from what it used to be. Magic appeared in the world, changing it forever, and humanity created a way to control it, allowing people to increase their physical and mental abilities while shaping the world according to their will, but something caused civilization to regress, becoming a mere shadow of what it used to be. In her journey to figure out who she was, what happened to the world, and how much time has passed, Kali will discover ancient ruins, fight horrendous creatures, find how humanity has fared in this harsh world and meet with droids that walk the land as remnants from the technology that the world once had. In this story, you are going to see Litrpg elements such as a system with panels, skills, and stats (Although not inside a game, the main character has access to information about her growth much like an RPG). Survival elements will be present but it won't be the focus of the story, but crafting and enchanting on the other hand are going to be quite prevalent. Please, do let me know what you think in a comment or review, all criticisms are welcome. Also, English is not my native language so if you see any grammar mistakes, do tell me :) Chapters of ~2700 words each.
8 235R.E.N/D
In the 22nd Century the world has become a technological dystopia. Mankind has never been closer to godhood, but it has come at the cost of nature and its very humanity. Giant megapolis supercities cover the globe where countries once were, and the United Nations fights an ever-losing battle to regulate giant corporations too wealthy and powerful to be controlled. Aiden King, a young man from the megapolis known as England, has scored 100% on every exam he's ever taken. When he applies to join the United Nations Intelligence Service, they jump at the chance to recruit him - but they have far loftier ambitions for him than making him a simple Analyst. They invite him to join R.E.N/D: the Research, Engage and Neutralize Division - a secret anti-terrorism and intelligence organization founded to foster closer relations between the U.N and rival megacorps. Jumping at the chance to be part of something so great, Aiden accepts their offer. He had no idea the pain and misfortune that awaited him. Sometime later, Aiden wakes up. He has no memory of how he got there or what happened to him - all he knows is that now he's a monster, and R.E.N/D's special operatives will stop at nothing to kill him.
