《A World Without》Running
Advertisement
I gasp for air. What? What? What?
Maybe they were right.
I turn.
Maybe the devil is me. And it's taking me over like ivy strangling a tree.
Killing me over the last 8 years. Letting things slip. Letting people get suspicious. Letting them get doubts. Letting them get fears. Just like the revolution.
It's suffocating me, draining me. Where is he? Where am I? Is Kirk real? Are there other's? Other people taken by the devil? Others like me?
Hands touch me suddenly and I punch Matt in the face. I cover my mouth with my hands as he reaches out for me. I can't. I can't.
Shaking my head I sprint off past Emily and the others. Out into the desert's wasteland. I can feel the devil clawing at my face and my feet. His hands squeezing my heart and howling into my ears. Just make it STOP!
I want to leave the accusations behind but the further I run the closer they get,
“....5th sense or something?” I hear my classmates echo in my mind.
“...creeps me out.” the words echo around my head.
“So sure of herself?...”
“...possibly know...”
“...she's possessed...”
“...the devil,” The word bangs against my skull.
“is the devil.” Bang!
“But Kai is.” I become aware of tears forming in my eyes.
“Thank you Kai.” Ffion's voice is now raw and sharp as it darts around my mind.
“Thank,”
“You.”
“Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”
“Kai!” I snap back into reality.
“They're suspicious you know” I shake my head at the voices.
“You're not normal.” I am normal! I am! I shout.
My legs keep running on and on.
“The way you find us.”
“The way you walk.”
“Talk”.
“Ticking” At that word my pace slows.
Ticking.
“Ticking.”
Ticking.
“Clicking!” Megan's poisonous voice rattles through me as I speed up again,
“...immersed in thought...”
“...go around...”
“...suspicious too Kai.”
Kai.
Kai?
Kai?
“but it's perfectly understandable”
“understandable.” It echoes round my head.
SMACK!

Small Pond
In a world without systems, levels, or any standard power levels, Faust is a naturally skeptical person who always asks questions first and accepts after he gets confirmation. A lot of it. With some information unknown to the reader, represented as [?], Faust is left to discover who kidnapped him, where he is, if magic exists, and what to do while the reader silently observes him. And as for the YOU dear reader, I'll need your help choosing some things... Small Pond isn't meant to be a high-paced action light novel, but instead, there's a greater focus on world and character building in order to create a greater narrative. Expect the unexpected in this story ;) The release schedule will be paused, for now, I'm going to try and spend some time rethinking the intro and work on school.

Dishonor
In the center of a nuclear wasteland lay the last vestiges of humanity, the City, as its numerous inhabitants called it. To leave its protective wall was certain death. Humanity was not meant to fit within the confines of a walled city. But, with a strict caste system and the threat of being sent to the lowest level of the caste system for even the smallest crime, the City has survived. Liv was born to the highest caste, Most Honored. After her father's treason and subsequent execution, her family was cast into the prison that the lowest caste, the Dishonored, lived in. Tortured and forced to work as a slave for every bite to eat, Liv desired revenge against the King that made her life a living hell and the City that held her captive. With a forced smile and a polite bow, Liv would destroy the overpopulated last bastion of humanity. Releases weekly on Tuesdays at 12:45 Eastern US Time.
