《Making magic, Forging fame.》The red fox in the mirror.

The world rushes around me, the comes into focus so quickly that it makes me doubt my eyes.
I stand in a forest, Each tree standing tall, and bright as if every inch was showered in light. Under my feet are thousands of blades of grass each one slightly standing out forming a collage of leaves. The trees continue nigh endlessly. I look behind me, revealing a little ball of fire floating motionlessly in the still air. I focus on it, and it moves to my will, like a dance to the beat of my heart.
I walk forward, the ball of fire following me. I come to a stream, the water is so clear it is barely visible, inside it swim small fishes and orbs of blue light.
With a suddenness like waking from a dream, a deep growl comes out behind me. I turn, quickly. There approached a lone wolf, larger than me in both height and width, with fur the colour of grey stone and eyes the colour of a bleeding wound.
It growled again, the growl echoing through my brain, awakening a memory that hurts in more ways than one.
My breathing was shallow as i held onto young girl, she couldn't have been older than eight, blood slowly dripped from her still chest, an arrow lay cast aside on the ground the tip was dyed in the colour of her blood. The growling of wolves waking me from my lament i lay her body apon the harsh land and picked up the solitary arrow, brandishing it i yell "you can't take her."
The wolf, i stare at it in anger, i point at it, willing the ball of fire to burn it, burn it, burn it. The ball of fire flies towards the wolf.

With reflexes that imply expectation, the wolf bites down on the ball of fire, swallowing it whole. I obtain the feeling of losing myself, of fading. I open my hand, showing my palm, and focus. A blood red flame is thrown from my palms enveloping the wolf, burning it slowly peice by peice into a large pile of ash.
I walk over to the ashes of the wolf, the ashes move as if caught in the wind spiraling upwards revealing the ball of flames, before flowing into the fireball.
The ball of fire begins to expand, becoming longer, pointier, growing legs to form the shape of a small fox, the flames die down revealing a red fur coat. I stare at it, it opens its eyes, staring at me.
I reach out slowly and touch it.

8 175Feathery Delight
The world has been hard on young Kael. Living his life on the streets, Looking for a way out he tries many things to change his destiny, only to be met with failure again and again. Wallowing in self-loathing, he lives his days without much purpose or motivation. Life, however, had other plans. On a rainy night of watching life pass him by, an explosion suddenly rips our young protagonist out of the bland world he knew. Meeting an old man claiming to be able to use magic, will his life finally change? Will the world finally give him a chance? This is a complete rewrite of my earlier story. Aside from my own personal problems with depression, there were many, many things I came to dislike about the way it was progressing. With the low quality of the earlier chapters, it was in dire need of at least an editing run. Instead of just editing the subpar chapters, I decided to just do it over again and change what I did not like. Please also note that I am not a native English speaker and thus might make mistakes. I have tried hard to find and correct most, but I am certainly not perfect.If you notice anything that is wrong just leave a comment below the chapter and I will try to get to it.

8 152Zero Visible
What would an anime be like from the perspective of a background character?From birth, Reikawa Yuuya has had the ability to see the character arcs of the people around him, a skill passed down through his family. Combined with his extremely low presence, Yuuya is in the perfect position to be an observer in countless stories.The thing is, though, the humans in this city aren’t people. Not to him.And he’s afraid of what they can become.(Disclaimer: This is a psychological drama. Yuuya starts the story off with severe psychological and emotional trauma that only decays as the story proceeds. If you're looking for a witty meta story with a cool power-fantasy MC, this isn't it.)Also on Wordpress at zerovisible.wordpress.com
