《Pokémon: A Story of the End》Burden

Biermann’s PoV
We have been chasing the burglars for quite some while now. Radio even ran out of Initial D music so he resorted to Mario Kart music.
Eventually, we lost them in a large crowd and we stopped to rest for a bit.
“How d-do they have such great st-stamina...” “W-well they are probably accustomed to running from the cops. We should give up on following them and just find a place to rest, the sun has met the horizon by now afterall.” Monika suggested. I nodded and we went to a store to buy some food and water. As she was buying the items, I could feel sinister eyes glaring at us. When she finished purchasing the utilities we left the building and I whispered: “We should get out of here. My elbows are shivering and that’s a bad sign.” She just nodded and we escaped the mass of heads.
Once in a more quiet part of the labyrinthine city, we sought shelter in a now abandoned building. Using our backpacks as pillows and luckily because of the warm temperatures, we didn’t need any blankets.
I closed my eyes. I was finally able to rest peacefully, but I couldn’t fall asleep since a disturbing feeling moved through my body, like I was being stared at. It felt like something... was breathing on me...
I opened my eyes. “Shsllslllsp” “AHHHHH!” I woke up in shock and moved a few meters backwards. Monika woke up and asked what’s wrong and Radio sung “AnnieareyouOK?” I just pointed at the seemingly evil predator that was hanging above my head just a second ago.
“Hmm isn’t that a Bellsprout?”
The Bellsprout jumped around happily and suggested with sign language that he gave me vine arms. “Shhlslhsllsh!” He jumped on my head with his mouth and when he let go there suddenly was a hat.

“Hmmm pretty cool. I’m gonna catch you and call you Wardrobe!” “Weren’t you afraid of him just a second ago?” “What are you talking about. Me? Scared? Muhahaha! Mad Scientists don’t get scared! Now get in the ball Wardrobe!” “I caught the incomprehensible Grass type and let him out the Pokéball.
Just when we went back to sleep, some Noibat flew over. “Radio, Electric Boogaloo! Wardrobe, Belt of Grass!” They attacked and scared away the small Noibat. Soon after we heard a loud screach as the residence shook heavily. Outside appeared the dragon bat Pokémon, Noivern. Holy Cow!
“Run!” We ran for our lifes in order to escape kicking any buckets. The Noivern flew after us and with its sonic booms and large wings, it knocked down large pillars that held up the dilapidated apartment. We were being chased by a huge monster and the building we were in started crumbling down. It felt like a scene from Teddiursa Jones.
“DUN DUN DUNDUN! DUN DUNDUN!” “WHY ARE YOU HUMMING A SONG?!”
“RADIO THIS IS SO SAD, PLAY THE TEDDIURSA JONES THEME!” He did as I said as we barely escaped the tumbling structure.
The Noivern seemed to have gone down the complex. We were safe again, for now.
“You killed the big bad boss Noivern the Screecher! Come follow us and the Chill One will reward you!” Some Alolan Rattata talked to us and wanted us to follow them. I explained to Monika and she was okay, since if we didn’t, who knows how long we would survive!

Quantum Worlds (A LitRPG dark fantasy)
Find the missing VIP in an illegal game world. Kill the monsters. Return home for the paycheck. Decorated Marine commander, Damon Williams, never thought his latest mission would take place in a full-immersion world fighting monsters… but when a high-value VIP disappears after being stealthily transported to a banned MMORPG, he's their only hope. Damon must lead a group of rescuers into an unforgiving world infested with terrifying monsters and worse. Pain is real. Death is permanent. He and his crew must adapt quickly, trust each other, and fight to survive. And if all that's not bad enough, they'll also have to race against time to avoid the realm’s disintegration and mutation effects. Quantum Worlds features race and class designations, unique creatures, dungeon crawling, level progression and Easter eggs that reference video games and pop culture. This a dark fantasy, but it also has sprinklings of humor throughout. It is a multi-cast, multi-pov story. In many ways, it is a melding of one of my favorite novels, “The Stand”, with my favourite genre, LitRPG. I don’t espouse to be anywhere near Stephen King, but I would like to think that I have succeeded in many areas here (you’ll be the judge of that). So, this thriller-style story has a lot of build-up and lots of drama. When it hits the 100-page mark, it starts to take off with some intense action and fight scenes (although there are battles long before that). Nothing comes easy for this group of rescuers. And the dangers are very real. This saga is already over 100 chapters with more to come. I hope you enjoy it and look forward to your reviews, comments, and feedback. Thanks. Chapters are uploaded every day at noon ET. Please do not repost this work anywhere without my written permission. Quantum Worlds is a participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge.

Wulfgard: The Hunt Never Ends
In the civilized world of humans, 'monsters' have all but passed into legend. But when something goes bump in the night, when people begin to disappear, when a dark mystery begins to haunt even the most peaceful villages, there is only one organization to turn to: the Hunters. The Venatori. Having lived a life of discipline and service, former soldier Caiden Voros finds something even worse than the wars of humans: the monsters that hunt them. Horrors yet unknown even to him and his many scars await in the claws, talons, fangs, and mysterious powers of creatures so far beyond humans that he must dedicate himself entirely to the art of slaying them. Harboring a secret of his own and in a constant struggle to find answers while maintaining his sanity, however, Caiden begins to ask the age-old question... Who is truly worse, the monsters or the Men? Wulfgard: The Hunt Never Ends is an episodic collection of stories, each of which stand on its own, but they also build upon each other in a consecutive order, bridging a gap between a novel and short story collection. These stories follow monster hunter Caiden Voros and his partner Gwen Vergil as they embark on tales of mystery, horror, and adventure to track down monsters - the living dead, beast-men, shape-shifters, spirits, and many more - that would do harm to innocent lives and, by whatever means necessary, put a stop to their terrors. Their motives, however, are not always what they seem.
