《Powertrip》Prologue
Advertisement
I plunge my knife into my newest victim watching as the life drains our of his eyes, it's so fun watching his despair. That's the last one huh? Thought a Gang that calls itself the Dragon Clan would put up more of a fight. Sure they had numbers and firepower but they couldn't strategize if their life's were on the line, as I just proved.
"Guess that's it, they were know as the strongest group there was and I'm to lazy to try and dig out hidden organisations." What now? I guess I could kill all the good guys but there not even half as strong, plus I never liked being on the bad side as usually it doesn't turn out that well for them. I guess suicide's always an option.
Having decided I raise my knife and stab myself through the throat killing myself instantly, I don't want to slowly suffer after all.
.....
"Haha! You were so bored your solution was to kill yourself? You might break the record for biggest idiot in the universe!" I suddenly found myself in front of God himself. He didn't call himself that but I could at least figure that out.
"So here's the deal. I'm God." Huh can't he read my mind? "As God I'm very bored. VERY BORED. You my boy happened to be one of my biggest entertainment's in years. And I mean millennia not centuries, so imagine my feelings when my favorite entertainment decides to cancel on it's own". Dont call my life a show, if I wanted all my life achievements to be described like that I'd be an actor. "So that I can get my entertainment back I decided to make a little game, I'll take histories worst Killer, you, and pair him against histories biggest Saint. Heres the kicker though the Saint will get the power of destruction while the killer will get the power of creation, ironic right?"

"Will these powers be at the level of a God or Will they be regulated?"
"To make it more fun to watch I'll obviously chose unregulated. Of course I don't have to worry about getting killed because I gave that power to the saint who, bye the way, LOVES ME. Seriously he started a giant religion worshiping me, of course I was flattered but not impressed. He wasn't even willing to do sacrifices! What kind of God does he think I am? A sissy?" Before I could respond the self titled God teleported me onto some random empty planet.
"Alright enough shenanigans let's get right into some action! NOW STAR-"
"Summon a button that kills both God and the one who he gave the power of destruction to instantly." Without waiting I spoke out an order that happened to luckily pay off. I learned for one I could summon things by speaking the requirements and two, He wasn't lying about not regulating it, what a idiotic God. Its to be expected I guess what with all the problems my world had. Looting, rape, natural disaster, hell there's even multiple Religions. Shouldn't he be the type who hates it when he isn't being praised?
As such I managed to summon a button in my hand. To describe it I would say it looked like a "that was easy" button which was what I was imagining, seems my power is also affected by my imagination.
Of course without delay I pressed the button. Silence. It wasn't like I was expecting an explosion but damn, didn't I just kill God? Shouldn't the time continuum be warping and stuff? Oh well.
"Summon a mirror that shows the status of people I imagine." Instantly a person sized mirror appeared in front of me, it was rectangular and without any decorations because I happened to like my furniture simple.

"Show the status of the saint and God." it stopped reflecting my appearance and quickly went black, after a few seconds it fazed into tv static. In the middle of the screen it read
The existences known as "God" and "Holy Saint Jain" no longer exist.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" With crazy laughter and eyes filled with insanity I screamed my heart out for ten minutes straight, I would've kept laughing but my throat got sore. A God, A GOD! The Zodiac killer? Jack the Ripper? They don't got anything on me! But, before that.
"A cloak that prevents anyone from finding me if it involves the Old God, or if Its just someone I don't want to find me" although I said it in a different way I still managed to create it, and even though I didn't specify it it still came out as an Iron Ring. I put it on immediately, after all when Gods are involved you might die instantly
I also want a ring that enables me to do everything as long as I confirm it. In my Palm appeared another ring this one however was pitch black and looked very worn. I don't even have to say what I want to create? Good thing I figured that out now after all, I wouldn't be able to cry if somehow my nightmares came to life. Clown Spiders *shudder*
Now then I don't want to stay here in this barren place. Hmmm, guess it's time to test this ring.
"I want to be transported to a world I'll find fun." And like that I disappeared to the Great Unknown. Ahem. The Great Funknown.

Gaia Ark
Commander Coop, a four-armed, power-armored, super-soldier, undertakes a mission to assassinate the head of a religious cult bent on destroying the UPSF and everyone they protect. But no mission is ever that simple. GAIA ARK is an action adventure hero's journey featuring a cranky cyborg, vampiric sword, alien monsters, and enough self-discovery to provide a character arc. It's a little rough around the edges, a little crude. I started writing this story on November 2, 2018. This story is mid-composition. Please expect clunky prose, notes [in brackets], and incomplete...

Homeland
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER -- In Cory Doctorow’s wildly successful Little Brother, young Marcus Yallow was arbitrarily detained and brutalized by the government in the wake of a terrorist attack on San Francisco—an experience that led him to become a leader of the whole movement of technologically clued-in teenagers, fighting back against the tyrannical security state.A few years later, California's economy collapses, but Marcus’s hacktivist past lands him a job as webmaster for a crusading politician who promises reform. Soon his former nemesis Masha emerges from the political underground to gift him with a thumbdrive containing a Wikileaks-style cable-dump of hard evidence of corporate and governmental perfidy. It’s incendiary stuff—and if Masha goes missing, Marcus is supposed to release it to the world. Then Marcus sees Masha being kidnapped by the same government agents who detained and tortured Marcus years earlier.Marcus can leak the archive Masha gave him—but he can’t admit to being the leaker, because that will cost his employer the election. He’s surrounded by friends who remember what he did a few years ago and regard him as a hacker hero. He can’t even attend a demonstration without being dragged onstage and handed a mike. He’s not at all sure that just dumping the archive onto the Internet, before he’s gone through its millions of words, is the right thing to do.Meanwhile, people are beginning to shadow him, people who look like they’re used to inflicting pain until they get the answers they want. Fast-moving, passionate, and as current as next week, Homeland is every bit the equal of Little Brother—a paean to activism, to courage, to the drive to make the world a better place.
