TEN
The Hole was the sleaziest bar in the sleaziest part of the city. That evening the doors were closed, but there was light inside. Nobody uninvited would think about knocking on the door. The bar had that kind of reputation. It was there that The Raider and his new potential allies had gathered.
Sitting around a large table filled with booze were quite a few colorful characters, all notorious villains. The Raider knew them all from reputation, though not all personally. There was the guy with metal arms, a leather jacket and long hair called Speed Metal. A bald, muscular guy clad in red spandex with a huge M on his chest, Maximizer. A guy in a clown outfit, Balloon Clown. An attractive but muscular woman wearing a bearskin for a dress, Queen Neanderthal. And there was King Winter.
“Good to see you all. Thank you for coming. Today will be the first day of our new, successful criminal careers. Today is the day we band together to defeat the supers that plague our daily operations,” The Raider told the villains.
“Queen Neanderthal not yet agree. We not friends,” the muscular lady said.
“Yeah,” Speed Metal snarled. “Why would we join forces with you? I’m not much of a team player. I’m just here for the free booze. And please, put on some heavy metal. That blues rock is boring me.”
“Leave it on!” Maximizer said. “I love the blues.”
“Because you’re a boring old shit,” Speed Metal told Maximizer.
Maximizer stood from his chair, growing three heads bigger, dwarfing the less muscular Speed Metal. “Say that again and I will smash you!”
Speed Metal moved with incredible speed, his hands morphing into knives. He suddenly had his knives touching Maximizer’s genitals. “Are you sure?”

The Raider and King Winter interfered, pushing the two arguing villains away from each other.
“Come on, take it easy. The Raider has some good stuff to say. Listen to the man, chill out,” King Winter said.
Speed Metal groaned. “Chill out… Puns are so lame.”
Balloon Clown laughed a hysterical laugh. “I love puns, hee-hee-hee!”
The Raider continued his speech. “Thank you, King Winter. This was a good example why the heroes manage to defeat us. They work together, banding together in teams like The Heroic Alliance and the Teens Supreme while we fight each other. Imagine if we put aside our differences and worked together… Think about what that would bring us. The money, the power.”
“You already had me with money,” Balloon Clown said.
“And I guess you will be our leader then?” Speed Metal guffawed.
The Raider shrugged. “Do you think you would make a better leader?”
“As I told you, I don’t play well with others.”
“Then you can of course just leave. More money and more power to us,” The Raider said.
“I will stick around a bit longer. You seem pretty sure of yourself,” Speed Metal had to admit.
“That is because I have been leading a group of armed criminals for years now. I have been doing pretty well for myself. Imagine if I had a group of not only armed, but also superpowered criminals to lead. What a success that would be.”
“If I say I’m in. Where do we start?” Maximizer asked.
“Glad you asked,” The Raider said. “We start by destroying the police department. With that out of the way we only need to concentrate on the supers. Soon the city will be ours!”
“I’ll drink to that!” King Winter said and toasted with a cold beer.

Long Island
Long Island was not the first virtual reality game or to say a VRMMORPG. Not the one which changed the world and became a legend. No, it was made when there were lots (quite a few) of virtual reality games already on the market. Each game had its own unique AI feature, its own unique adventure, promising everyone a chance to become King, if not a God. In such a time Long Island was made. Just a little different, just a little unique. A normal guy was starting his own adventure, in life and in game.Note - Adding a cover made by someone I connected through wattpad: @DameCarnelian. Just a warning, it is not an accurate representation. The ship is not Raka's ship so avoid any confusion in that regard.
8 167The Joy of Evolution
"Alright, so I have this idea, a completely original one by the way, never done before." I say. "Alright, lets hear it." You reply happily. "What if you got trapped in the body of a tentacle monster that looks like a virus in a world that is like a videogame, with skills and... whoops slip of the tendril there, what I meant to say is Mutations and Levels as you evolve your way up from being that lowly creature into a slightly better lowly creature, all the while, an evil devil person watches over you for entertainment purposes." I say making weird hand gestures across the table. "Oh and that main character used to be a human male and uses its past experience as one to survive in this new world as a little mass of flesh." I pull out a little ball with suction cup tendrils and show you. "So, what do you think?" " I dont know seems, a little sameish, I think Im gonna go." You say as you start to get up from your worn but still plush velvet chair. "Wait" I sigh, " I didnt want to do this but you leave me no choice, I promise you an extremely diverse harem..." The door closes as you leave. "They'll come back." I say hopeful. Cover: https://phil.cdc.gov/Details.aspx?pid=21073

8 192Code Name: GLITCH
Major Xiomar Haydn is a damn good soldier, and an even better mechanic, although he does have a tendency to get himself thrown into the stockades for getting on the general's bad side. To keep him busy and out of trouble, Xiomar is assigned the task of repairing an old Mech that hasn't been touched in fifteen years. He knows he can fix it--he's Chief Mechanic. What he doesn't know, however, is that GLITCH has a mind of its own. Literally. In the midst of a war between two countries, Xiomar and his newly-repaired Mech are caught in the middle. The enemy is trying to obtain GLITCH's technology... the power to give their own Mechs sentience and dominate the world. Xiomar finds himself pondering the morality of forcing a sentient being to fight on his behalf, and what that means for him as a dutiful soldier. With the future filled with uncertainty, Xiomar and GLITCH are certain of one thing--no one's going down without a fight.
