Chapter 8: A Legend born from blood
Artemis roars loudly. She notices most of the players present lose 20-40% hp. Due to this, she then decides to attempt to annihilate them all. She goes to fire a breath attack, but instead of releasing it, she charges the shot up. Particles of light gathering towards her mouth, and super compressing itself into a orb. Thin rings of light surround it, making it look like a depiction of an atom.
Seeing his men still stunned from the roar, the main tank of the party activates his last ditch save spell/skill, one he almost never uses.
The man yells > which makes him invulnerable for a short period of time. [Author Note: yes I took this from log horizon] He stood close to the dragon, and slammed his massive tower shield down, attempting to take the hit.
He gets hit with a blinding light. When he can see again, he notices something that makes him scared for his life, for the first time since he's started the game. As if it was a wedge from his point as the tip, everyone not behind him was gone. Wiped out, erased. It's not like any of them were weak; in fact most of them were level 300-400. The leader of the party being level 500. They feared nothing. Until now, that is.
The dungeon was blasted open by the sheer power of the attack that he managed to deflect. There was a massive hole in the mountain, that once covered the dungeon. Artemis was unable to move for a while due to the recoil of the attack, but the enemy didn't know that, and took this chance to flee for their lives.
They all managed to make it to the grasslands nearby, before Artemis could move again. She decides to fly to them and lands in the middle of them, squishing a few under her feet like ants. She then proceeded to use her tail like a flail and a whip to attack the remaining players that were behind her.

She purposely made everyone but the enemy leader die. Before confronting him, she knew she couldn't kill him forever, so she decided to make it so he never tried this shit again. She forces her dragon form to condense back into a Demi-Human Form. However, this one isn't like her normal form.
Through sheer willpower, she forced the system to give her transformation skill another Form: a Dragonoidal Human Form. She looked beautiful in this form. Her scales make her look like a living work of art, and in this form she had 80% of the stats she had in her full Dragon Form, which was a unexpected perk.
Artemis slowly walked towards the leader of the raid. Like a cat playing with a mouse, she began to torment him, both physically and mentally... by the time he finally died, the once green fields that surrounded him were crimson. Due to her habit from her real form, she goes to lick her dragon claws in order to clean them of the blood which made her even scarier.
Almost instantly, the last ones to die released a video their pods automatically captured of her that shown everything that happened from a hour before to an hour after they got killed by her, it was a system put in place to prevent misuse of pk. It recorded a log of the hour before, and after, of your killer in a third person's perspective as evidence in case they keep spawn killing, etc.
Of course uploading that data was illegal, but they didn't care. INSTANTLY the forums metaphorically exploded with activity. The thread instantly became stickied, and became the number one viewed thread on the forums.
People started to call her "The Goddess of The Hunt", due to how she killed all the idiots that dared draw her ire. Some started calling her "The Goddess of Animals", due to her shape shifting. No one knew who she was, they just wanted to know one thing: "Who was she?"

Meanwhile in Hired Heroes [also known as H4H]'s Vent(Vent = Ventrilo its a Voice chat system) [Notice: This chat never happened but all the people listed in it are real and me and agentXshadow are a member of said guild]
Selraym: Hey, have you heard about the Crimson Grassland massacre yet?
Nibor: No, I haven't.
Tacman98: That's 'cause your a fucking casual gosh
Tenks: I haven't heard of it either... what happened Sel?
Selraym: Some scrubs fucked with the wrong person, said person turns into a dragon, everyone dies.
Eveechan: It wasn't just any dragon, Sel. It was a White Celestial Dragon.
Miriflower: Ooooh I want a pretty dragon!
Zhorge: You can't have one, Miri. Now get back to doing your homework.
Miriflower: But daaaaad!
Zhorge: No buts!
Ackreon: When the hell did someone manage to get a dragon transformation?!
Rome: I don't know, but I'm sure glad it wasn't me she was facing.
agentXshadow: I wouldn't mind fighting that dragon. Seems like fun!
Yeavon: Challenge accepted.
agentXshadow: ....fuck
Artemis went back to where she left the body of her friend, Erica, and takes her to a beautiful spot that overlooks a gorgeous sunset, and buries her. She offers a prayer to whatever Gods exist in this world that aren't total assholes, like XiX, that she can be reunited with her son.
After paying her respects, she transforms into her full Dragon Form and flies off, wanting a change of pace from all the bullshit she went through today, in hopes to forget the pain and sorrow for a moment, when she suddenly hears softly due to the distance she had from the ground "elp e!" Confused, she lowers her altitude for a bit to get a better listen, and hears a young child crying and yelling for help.
Artemis, not warning to frighten the child in her Dragon Form, changes into her Demi-Human Form mid-air. After noticing what she needs help with, she saw with her enhanced vision before transforming a high level player chasing a little girl. She could tell that it was a player as well, due to her dialog with the man begging him not to kill her, and that she didn't have a lot of japtem or gold on her, that it wasn't worth killing her and getting the murderers mark.
Artemis, after aiming correctly, and like I stated above, transforming into her Demi-Human Form, falls perfectly in line with the idiot attempting to kill a child. Artemis used > to negate her fall damage, and at the same time uses the fall to explosively raise her physical damage by 1000%, thus negating her debuff for that hit on the idiot, and buffing her damage by 500%. If that wasn't bad enough for the poor sap, it was a fatal hit. Instantly killing him, granted it was quite obvious it was fatal since the man looked like a Unicorn due to where she hit the guy on the head.
The girl instantly breaks out into laughter at the scene, and instantly stops when she sees the person who saved her.
???: "A-Artemis?.... Is that really you? I thought you were at the Crypts of the Damned"
Artemis hearing her name turns to see....

8 158Star Wars: Silverlight Rising
This unending conflict between the Jedi and Sith has brought the Galaxy to the brink of extinction. The sins of war have taken its toll on both sides and the question is no longer who will win but rather who will survive. In the midst of all this unbalance in the force something manifests…something neither dark nor light and it seeks to reclaim the gift that has been squandered by so many for so long.
8 144A generic love story: disturbance
To escape the boring dogma that society presents, many choose to turn away and bathe in a fictional world with fantastic fantasies. There they are awed by the great heroes and villains; by great battles between powerful forces, and by things that the real world didn`t seem to hold. But by doing so, they cruely ignored the pains and suffering of actual human beings, as well as the real threat humans can pose to eachother under extreme but still very real conditions. What many failed to realise, is the fact that unspeakable evil is very much doable by a mere anybody, and with that, the terrifying things a human can do when their mind is twisted. This story is a pathetically poor, but still a desperate attempt to reveal the depths of human emotions and what they can drive us to do. Following Sougo Kyoya, a boy with a tragic past and violent future, the story will deliver hard to understand martial arts and psychological behavior, masochism, and BDSM smut scenes. notes: "character`s conversations" (character`s thoughts) *sound effects* [author`s notes] Credits to BlackTea and Pingster for contributing ideas and editing.

8 194Lawman.
Lawman follows the exploits of Relovan, a Human Police Enforcer stationed on the BlargonianPlanets – a series of small planets on which pure Essence is mined, and refined into fuel. On hisday off, he finds himself and his fellow Enforcers caught up in a fight between two Void Lords,beings of immense power, who answer only to the Council, after the pair of Void Lords touchdown on the Station, seeking to refuel their respective Void Walkers. In the ensuing clash,Relovan punches above his weight and subdues a number of Void Knights – those in the serviceof the Void Lords – before becoming directly involved in the confrontation between the VoidLords themselves. His performance during the incident catches the attention of the current PoliceChief, Nura, who essentially takes him under his wing, and assists him in various ways,including when he is summoned to answer before the Council for getting involved in the spatbetween the two Void Lords. The book ends after the conclusion of the Hearing.Relovan is a stickler for the Law – something that prompted him to learn not only the laws ofvarious territories and planetary systems, but also the native languages and customs, so as touphold the law as best he can. As a highly trained, and immensely skilled former soldier,Relovan’s abilities along with his latent talent regarding the use of Essence, allow him to hangwith beings infinitely more powerful than him. Lawman is a full length manuscript that I will likely self publish once I have the artwork for it.
