《Lucky SP》Chapter 4 - New Identity
Advertisement
Lucky, made his way down to the Scholars Orphanage for Needy Children at downtown Chicago. This was a well established Orphanage for Victims for Child Trafficking. It is highly supported through charity of the world's elite. Lucky entered the front entrance. Nearby people gave way for this smelly homeless looking kid with tattoo marks on his face and oversized jeans. He sat down into a waiting chair. He cleaned the dirt from under his nails as he waited. "Excuse me." A middle aged woman tapped his shoulder from behind. "Hmm?" Lucky looked around. The woman's nose twitched slightly. "Young man, how may I help you?" Lucky met her eyes. "Hello ma'am, I need help getting myself settled with identity documents." The woman looked him over. "I will need to do an age test. By federal law, we can only help those 18 years or younger through the identity documents program. And I will need to take your statement and record on why you need these documents as well as a small summary of your circumstances. " Lucky waved his hand in agreement. "Fine." The woman came forward and grabbed Lucky's chin. She held his mouth open and swabbed the inside of his teeth with a small device. It let out a high pitched beep and she withdrew it. Lucky was a little annoyed at how roughly she had treated his face. The woman didn't seem to care about his opinion on the matter. She acted as if she had done this a thousand times a day. She read over the device and nodded her head. "Your teeth are aged exactly 18 years. Did you turn 18 today? " Lucky was stunned. 'I.. am I really 18 years old?' "Y-yes" he replied a little dazed. The woman eyed him, her gaze containing pity and sympathy. She reached out her hand. "Don't worry young man, I have a son about your age. He attends school at Montgomery High. Have you gone to school before?" "No, I don't think so. I can't remember." Lucky answered. The woman's pity intensified in her gaze. 'Poor boy. He must have been trafficked since a young age. Those scum, they always number their victims. Was he abducted as a child and couldn't attend school? Damn!' The woman decided. She would make sure this young man would get a chance to get an education and set up a student identity for him. Her gaze softened. "Alright, please fill out these forms for me." She pushed a small paper clipped bundle into his hands. "What's your name?" She asked. Lucky looked at the documents. "My name is Lucky." The woman blinked. "You are... Your name is Lucky?" Lucky looked up and smiled slightly "Yes, Lucky S.P." "Lucky S.P.? What does the S.P. stand for?" she asked curiously. Lucky shook his head and shrugged avoiding the question. He couldn't say it was like a tracking number for corpses, right? "My name is Mrs. Jane. Don't worry Lucky, I'll make sure things get squared away for you and have you all set for your future." Jane smiled a motherly smile. Lucky nodded his head. 'Mrs. Jane was very kind and motherly woman.' 20 mins passed quickly. Lucky was taking pictures for his identification and sorting everything. Finally, the documents were all settled. Mrs. Jane bound the documents together with a small paper clip and walked into a back office. A photo copier hum sounded from the room. Mrs. Jane told Lucky he was free to use the facilities here. He should clean himself up a bit. He took her advice and spent the next 30 mins cleaning himself. He took a warm shower, received a pair of donated clothing, and 300$ spending money from the charity. Lucky was feeling really content. He ate some snacks, received some money, and processed his new identity. Mrs. Jane walked out of the office and handed Lucky his identity documents. "Alright, Mr. Lucky. I sorted everything out for you. " She passed a passport ID with Lucky's profile picture. "Also, I went ahead and applied to send you to the same High School which my son is attending. You are qualified as a part of the Orphan Recovery Program which was put forth by Burst Industries donations." She smiled warmly. Lucky was curious. "Is there such a good thing? I already feel very content with a warm shower and the donation money. You didn't have to do this." Mrs. Jane explained "Lucky, evil people have been abducting orphans since the end of World War 2 hoping to do nasty things with them. And many philanthropists specifically founded charities and initiatives exactly like this one to help people like you, who manage to get out and to have a new hope. Your living expenses will be taken care of as long as you maintain a GPA of 3.0 or more in the program." Lucky's eyes widened. 'Th-this..' "Thank you! This helps me a lot." Lucky felt touched. 'There are good people in this world.' He grabbed the documents and school registration documents, then turned and left the building. He walked towards Montgomery High to hand over his transfer documents as a new student taking part of the recovery program. ... Lucky called a cab and arrived at Montgomery High in only and hour. He finished his registration at the registration office and was assigned a dorm on campus of the high school and handed the key. He unlocked his new dorm room before entering and closing the door. He laid out on his bed tiredly and shut his eyes. The school had on campus dorms for students in the Recovery Program like himself. It seems those philanthropists are very serious about this program. He got ready for bed and turned off the light before going to sleep.

The Exiled Villainess Returns
(Please heed the warnings above before reading) Reborn into the beautiful but deadly world of Ethetia, she comes to a sudden awareness that she is now Livia Katrina Valentine, a character of a game of a reverse harem she once played on Earth called Aster Academy: The Feuding Houses. But this revelation comes a bit too late. You see, Livia wasn't just anyone. She was not given the anonymity of being a background character, or even the blessing of being the heroine. Instead, she has bestowed the role of being the atrocious villainess. And that is exactly what she had been. As a result, Livia triggers her own death flag event at her debutante. Her memories of her past life have the grace to come only minutes before she is accused of poisoning the heroine, Amelia. But all is not helpless. Via last-minute intervention, Livia successfully manages to avoid having her head decapitated. Being exiled was a small price to pay for retaining a pulse. Plus, at least this way, Livia can finally start to live her life, to become more than just a cruel folly. Her exile should have been a new but unusual beginning to her story. But pitiless reality comes knocking. Ethetia had once only been a background setting in a game. A pretty and still picture that mostly went disregarded as the even prettier characters on the screen unloaded their dialogue, but now, it was Livia's world. As real and wonderous as planet Earth once had been, filled with small creatures with their own wills, ambitions, and needs. Such one creature decides that exile was not enough of a penalty. That Livia, the bullish and jealous tormentor of the heroine, deserves a fate more befitting of her past deeds. One worst than death. Livia's fate is ripped out of her hands. She is forced into a collar, sold to an empire rotten with greed, and placed inside a harem where she is expected to wither and die from the inside out. But Livia refuses to be forgotten. Burning with a deep rage against those who only wish to see her fall into her own grave, Livia makes a twisted promise to herself. A promise that pushes her through the darkest moments of her life and brings to light a newfound power rooted deep inside her. So keen to discard her as the villain she has once been, the little creatures in their own ignorance brought forth something they could never dream to fathom. A beacon of darkness.

A Suspicious Lack of Horses
World: The framework of reality. The rules which govern interaction. The dimensions within which existence takes place. Soul: Mind. The source of thought, of consciousness. The means by which reality is observed. Body: Form. The means by which one interacts with the World. The substance from which reality is formed. Spirit: Life. The connection between Soul and Body. The anchor to the World. What happens when these foundational forces are given human form? When they're confronted with the truths of human nature, of human frailty? When the evils of reality are thrown in their face and the question is asked: What are you going to do about it? Why did anyone ever think they'd need horses? I upload ~30k word chunks at the beginning of every month, rotating through each character in order. I have at least four extra chunks on my Patreon. I suggest setting your reading preferences to indent and 30 pt paragraph spacing for the best reading experience.
