《The Misadventures of a Young Dark Magician》Episode 3 (Part 5)

Benjamin gave chase and tried to catch her and the sphere, but got stopped by a passing car, throwing his concentration off course. As more cars passed by, he lost sight of the girl in a crowd of people waiting to cross the intersection. Harry had plenty of time to catch up to his Master and see if he could be of any help in the whole fiasco.
“Hey, Master, how’s it going?” Harry panted as he approached his side.
“Not so great. I lost the girl and couldn’t get through this crowd of people.” He pointed at the massive wall of humans waiting to cross the road, blocking his view of the sidewalk behind them.
“Oh, well, my sister went on ahead using her ‘special power’ and I couldn’t keep up with her.”
“What? How come she can use her powers in this world but I...” Benjamin spun toward Harry as he realized his mistake.
“Uh, she didn’t. That’s why I added sar—”
“Hey, maybe that’ll help us find them easier!” Benjamin stopped listening to Harry as he put his full attention toward a nearby building. Harry breathed a sigh of relief. His Master’s short attention span was a blessing at times. “That ladder, how do we reach it?” Benjamin pointed.
“I dunno, with magic maybe?” Harry contemplated the height that they would have to go to reach the fire escape ladder and wondered how they would create a diversion to avoid being seen floating up to the ladder. “But how will-?”
“That’s it! I’ll create a distraction with my wand!” Benjamin instinctively picked up on the messages sent by his sidekick without even realizing it. “And when everyone is distracted by that, we’ll jump up and grab the ladder. Since the monster world and the human world are different, maybe the wand will work when you’re specific and talk in their language!”

“Sounds brilliant, but also confusing,” Harry smiled in agreement. He thought Benjamin was so easy to influence.
Benjamin said the words ‘smoke bomb’ in his head multiple times to make sure the wand would register and to make sure no one else heard him. A smoke bomb then showed up and landed on the palm of his hand. He looked around and prepared to throw it.
When he confirmed that there was no one else looking their way; he threw the smoke bomb on the ground. The two then jumped toward the ladder and climbed it once they had their grip on it. Benjamin and Harry made it to the top and searched for Chi-Chi and the girl with the crystal sphere from their view.
“So, any sign of them at all, Harry?” Benjamin looked in all directions while shielding his eyes from the sun.
“Hmm, no, not really,” Harry replied. “Oh, wait, there’s Chi-Chi. She’s over at the cheese shop! She’s probably waiting for that girl to come out of the store.”
“Come on, Harry!” Benjamin exclaimed as he ran toward the ladder to return to the streets below.
Benjamin and Harry hurried on over as fast as possible to the cheese shop. When they got there, they found that Chi-Chi had lost sight of the girl. Truthfully, she had gotten distracted by the shop with all the cheeses in the world. Imagine all that cheese inside this one little shop. Benjamin did not take the news very well and growled as if possessed by a giant bear.
Benjamin was about to scold her for losing sight of the girl, but Chi-Chi reassured him they’d probably find her soon. The guinea pig reached out with an envelope and said that she had found it inside the girl’s bag. It supposedly contained the girl’s home address. Benjamin took it and tore it open, but not before patting Chi-Chi on the head, complimenting her on a good job well done.
He took a good while reading it, then rushed off to find the address, with the talking animals following close behind him.

8 197Grimm Tales: A RWBY Story
Two years after losing everything, two sisters will try to rebuild the lives they one had, as well as mend the heartache left behind through their connection with the many strange cast of characters they meet, and the many strange story's they're caught up in. Grimm Tales is a RWBY fan fiction I wrote and illustrated from 2014 through 2016. Keep that in mind when experiencing the story and the art within it. Also keep in mind that this story is technically unfinished. I put this aside in October of 2016 after completing what you can call the "first season" of what was going to be a multipart series. Even though the entire story remains unfinished, things do end in a somewhat satisfactory manner.
8 100Method Of Loci
Have you ever wondered how a blind person sees? Not their surroundings but in their mind, the place most sacred to anyone. Where they keep memories, ideas, dreams, fears, nightmares and where they let their imagination roam free. We with sight, see things in still photos or moving pictures from memories, or other references that we see everyday. Framing our mind into something that's usually the same as most of the population, something conformed. We see the same colors the same movements, the same designs. We may all think differently but we all see the same, both on the outside and the inside. Not Eliot because he was born blind, never seen a thing in his whole life, that is until the satellites appeared giving him vision and the whole world new possibilities. *** Apocalyptic setting. Game-like elements. Atleast two chapter a week
8 180Living With Magic
Arthur, a young magician, is struggling with crippling social anxiety. The issue has reached a point where he likely won't graduate from University. Reaching a crossroads, he must decide whether to try and return to a family he despises or make his own path in the world. Is the magical power he has actually beneficial in the real world? Authors Note: I'm terrible at writing a synopsis, but over time I hope to write a better one. One of my favorite series of books is the Magicians by Lev Grossman and I hope to follow that same line of thinking within my story. How would a society built around magic actually exist and is power and magic actually as great as other stories make it out to be? The story and characters will be completely original and I will try to update the story on a regular basis. Also, any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
