The girl with pink hair almost left with the crystal sphere still in her bag, but Benjamin called out to her again, impeding her process.
“Hey, wait just a moment! Come back!” Benjamin exclaimed, running after her.
“Yeah, what is it, sir? I need to go back home quickly, so can you make this quick?” She turned and gripped her bag a little tighter against her side.
“Uh, it’s that shiny thing in your backpack. Where exactly did you get that?” Benjamin pointed toward the glass orb that was barely perceivable in her purse opening.
“Oh, you mean this? It fell out of the sky not too long ago. I have no idea what this is, but doesn’t it look so cool?” She tried to play it off as if it wasn’t that important. It was just a trinket; after all, there was nothing more to this thing, right?
“Yea, it is. And it’s also mine.” Benjamin said, “I... dropped it. I need to fuse it with this wand to make it powerful.”
Harry slapped his forehead when his Master revealed his plan. What was he thinking!?
“You... dropped it from the sky?” The girl looked at Benjamin, puzzled by the change in the story.
“Yeah, I was, uh, skydiving.” Harry and Chi-Chi now bowed heads in disbelief. This plan was not going well, and there was nothing the two of them could do about it now.
“Skydiving? In that weird outfit?”
“Uh-huh, and—” Her taunting on his clothing choices and her disbelief of his story became apparent to him. “Hey, that’s not funny! Why do you not believe me? And what are you even going to do with it anyhow?” Benjamin started growing impatient with this Earth girl.
“Why study it, of course!” She chirped.

“Don’t interrupt me! Just hand me the ball of power already, it’s dangerous!” Benjamin yelled at the girl while holding out his hands for the sphere.
“Well, I still don’t know if I should trust you...” She smiled, “...though I admit you have a weird sense of humor.”
“I’m not trying to be funny!” Benjamin could feel the rage and heat on his face. This day was taking too long.
“But, if you are trying to rule the world as you say, then it's a good thing I took this from you... Sorry but finders keepers, I suppose.”
“Oh, that does it!” Benjamin thundered and grabbed the purse straps in a futile attempt to free the bag from her hands.
“Hey, what are you-?” She desperately gripped the bag with both hands and struggled to rip it out of Benjamin’s hands.
“Taking back what’s rightfully mine, that’s what I’m doing!”
Tired of her nonsense, Benjamin grew determined to snatch the bag from the girl by force. Chi-Chi and Harry tried to help their Master by pulling his coat. The pink-haired Earth girl struggled with all her might to hold on to it as best as she could. They fought over it for a while; time seemed to pass in slow motion. The young girl then let go of the bag, sending Benjamin flying and falling onto the floor.
As he and the critters tried to get up, the pink-haired girl made a run for it before they could get their composure and tried to stop her yet again.
“Nice one Master!” Harry patted his Master on the leg.
Benjamin, now realizing that he had her purse in his lap, checked and searched through it in hopes of finding and getting his sphere back. Unfortunately for them, it had only contained simple things such as money and candy; the orb wasn't there.

“Aw man, I could have sworn the crystal sphere was in there.” Benjamin threw the purse to the ground in disgust. “What the devil is all this useless junk? Where’d the device go?!” He got up onto his feet and looked around the area. “Fang, she must have gotten it while I was distracted. There’s no way I’m letting that son of a banshee get away with that sphere!”
Having no time to waste, Benjamin tossed the purse aside and went after her, not realizing that he had left Harry and Chi-Chi behind.

Fall of a Civilization - Modern Apocalypse
Today was an ordinary day. The same day as every day. The start of a monotonous day for some while being an exciting one for others. Today was supposed to be the latter for me. My first day in an abroad country, coming here for my studies. But everything changed when the world started spewing monstrosities, abhorrent creatures, and powers. This is the story following Rudy, who gets trapped in a foreign country when the world decided to metaphorically flip its table. If the [horror] tag didn't already tell you, this story tries to give more focus to the monsters than other Litrpg's and also intends to have a much more serious tone. My writing may be sub-par as I am a starting writer, but I promise to strive and improve as I keep writing along with your feedback and response. Updates will be at every 3 days.
