~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I sat up and tossed my phone aside with a sigh as I sat up and stretched. Last night Zack had woken me up once we got to my house to drop me off. I basically just crashed once again when I got up to my room.
Julia was going to come by in about 10 minutes since she got home early this morning. I smiled at the fact that I would finally be able to see her again but also slightly dreaded it because of how much she would freak out about what I'd been up to since she left.
I lazily made my way downstairs and into the kitchen with a small smile on my face. My chest felt lighter than usual and I felt giddier. All in all, I was in a pretty good mood.
Yesterday was the best day I had in a while. No nightmares, no dealing with my mom, and no drama.
I slipped a tall glass down from the cabinet and filled it with cool water. I leaned against the counter and sipped on my water while thinking over yesterdays events. A bigger grin slipped over my face as I remembered some pretty hilarious moments like when Kyle pored ice water down Eric's shorts for stealing his before, or when Cody completely wiped out trying to catch Sammy who had kept jabbing him with a stick from a distance. They really don't get tired of messing with each other, do they?
The doorbell rang, snapping me from my thoughts. I slid my glass back on the counter and half walked half jogged over to the door. I swung it open and my best friend practically attacked me with a hug, almost knocking me over.
"I haven't seen you in forever!" Her voice was muffled as she finally let go of me and stepped back. I grinned at her, looking over her appearance.

She was wearing plain white shorts with a simple black tank top that had jewels scattered around the neck. Julia had hair that was so light brown that it almost looked like a dirty blonde in certain lighting. Her Hazel eyes always held a spark of excitement in them and were framed by thick eyelashes with light freckles dusting her cheeks and small nose. She was about 3 inches taller than me, putting her at about 5'5. Her skin tanned easily and she was pretty thin. She always complained about not being as 'curvy' as I was but it suited her.
"Girls day?" I asked as we grinned at each other.
"Definitely, you have to catch me up on everything at school. What's the new gossip?" She asked kicking the door shut before grabbing my hand and pulling me up to my room.
"You know I don't pay attention to that kind of stuff Jules. Its pointless." I said as we both plopped down on my bed.
"Ugh, I gave you one job while I was gone." She flopped onto her back. "What else have you been doing this entire time? Hanging out with handsome boys on the beach?" She joked still laying down and staring at the ceiling.
"Well..." I trailed off knowing what was coming. She froze before slowly lifting her head and peering at me skeptically before her eyes widened and she shot up, making me jump back a little.
"What!?" she practically yelled.
"We didn't go to the beach though?" I offered cringing, knowing there wasn't any escape from the crazy eyed girl sitting across from me.
"Spill. Now." She demanded before I dived into everything that had happened. I left out a few detailes about my mom and some other things that I knew she would completely flip about.

Julie knew my mom and I 'didn't get along' and that she traveled a lot but she didn't quite know exactly everything that went on. She knew my dad was a touchy subject and we never really mentioned it.
We met a little while after my dad left and became best friends almost instantly. Any time that she used to ask, I would just tell her that my dad doesn't stay with us anymore or something along those lines. She eventually realized that I didn't want to talk about it and that she wasn't going to get much more information and gave up.
"So you're telling me... that in the time I've been gone... you have befriended the 5 most badass, hot, scary, attractive, hot, troublesome, did I mention hot, bad boys in our school?" she asked with her jaw hanging open.
"Uh, yeah I guess so." I said sheepishly.
"I'm going to kill you." She said glaring at me.
"Why?" I asked holding my hands up innocently.
"Why couldn't you have waited until I was back? The one time something interesting happens to you- no offence- I'm not there to see it!" she yelled flopping back onto the bed with a groan.
"It's not my fault, I wasn't exactly looking to befriend them. Plus, we only hung out a couple of times." I defended myself shifting to the side with amused eyes.
"It's not fair, not only did you get one hot guy that saved your ass and swept in like a heroic night in shining armor, you got five." She whined flipping over and shoving her face into my pillow. I just shrugged.
"It's not like I wanted to be attacked by a creepy man in an ally way." I said flopping on to my back with her. She just huffed and sighed into the pillow.
"Maybe you'll be able to talk to them tomorrow at school." I suggested. That made her perk up right away and sit back up.
"Would you introduce me to them?" she asked hopefully.
"Sure." I said right before she squealed and attacked me with another hug. I laughed and pushed her off after a second. Sitting up, I grabbed my laptop and opened it up grinning at her.
"Wanna watch white chicks?" I asked as she returned my grin.
"Hell yeah I do."

Burning red letters hung large in the vision of everyone on earth that knew a written language. At the same moment that smartest, fastest, and strongest people on the planet disappeared with nothing to mark their passing. After a cycle of training and growth they would compete to earn their place in their suddenly expanded galaxy. This is not their story. Joe did his best to take care of his parents house and stay healthy. He was the only one of the four family members not chosen. The societal upheaval made by the announcement made the inflation and purges of the 20's seem pleasant by comparison but he keeps his head down and survives. Once the next message arrives 11 months later about the contest starting, even that society broke down into city states around large population centers. Joe tightened his belt and looked forward to the day that his family returned. Two years later burning red letters once again filled his vision. Humanity, the last of your competitors have been eliminated. Your determined caste level is 13 of 13. As such your planet has been claimed and will be repurposed for ideal resource production. Rifts will be seeded across the planet to increase resources and mana density. Your orbit will be corrected to ideal Hegemon standard. Do not interfere with any Hegemon activity, as the bottom caste you have no rights. Rejoice that all castes receive at least the basic Hegemon Growth System. Better luck next century.

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
