"We are so fuck."
The man leaps toward the adventurers causing them to scatter. The man's nails scratch the floor leaving scratch marks. The man turns around to faces the adventurers still having a smile.
"Why don't we introduce ourselves?" He said. "The name's Ordell." Without letting the adventurers to speak a word, Ordell ran toward Cyan, he aims his nails to impale Cyan.
Cyan panic and tries to run away but trip and fell onto his bottom. Ordell's nails stuck themselves into the wall, missing Cyan.
Ordell looks down to see Cyan pointing his guns at him. Cyan uploads his bullets into Ordell's face causing him to recoil in pain.
Getting up, Cyan ran.
Cyan ran toward the door that leads the way out, got out of the room, and shut the door. Once he was out of the room, Cyan saw the other standing in front of him, looking at each other awkwardly.
Cyan look at them and then at the door he ran out from and then back at them. "Did you just use me as bait?" He asks.
"Not exactly," Drake said. "Just we were already running toward the door and that guy just ran at you giving time," He explains shrugging.
"Though usually, Lester is the one being targeted," Basil added.
"We don't mention that," Lester said.
"I think you guys you should just run," Peter said. "This mission is a still technically a success and so, there's no need for you guys to risks your life staying in the building.
"That's true," Cyan said. Suddenly, the door behind them went flying from its hinges as Ordell walks out of the room, his arms now have bone-like armor sprouting out. The bullet wounds that Cyan gave him were all healed.
Ordell faces the adventurers. His face rips open to reveal one giant eye that was hidden behind rows of teeth that were looking straight at them.

"I think we should end this right here and now," Ordell growls. Then, there was something was in front of his face. "Hmmm?" Ordell's eyes then went wide in realization.
The object exploded right in his face.
*BOOM*
"I always carry explosives on me," Lester mutter as he ran.
As the adventurers ran through the hallway, they could hear Ordell roaring in anger.
"GUARDS! CATCH THE INTRUDERS OR ELSE YOUR HEAD WILL BE OFF YOUR FUCKING SHOULDER!" Ordell roars.
"Oh, we're so fucking dead now," Lester mutters. "We now have both an angry monster and guards after our ass now,"
"You're the one that angers the creepy fucker."
"Let's not talk about that."
"Alright, I got an escape plan for you guys," Peter said. "There should be a crossway coming up, turn left since there'll be fewer guards there, and that where the nearest exit is."
"Got it," Lupin said.
Sure enough, as Peter had said, there was a crossway coming up as the adventurers ran, and just as they were about to go to the left, something rush by them and crashes into the wall.
Pieces of the building's wall blocked the adventurer from going to the left. "Well, we'll have to go the right," Lupin said.
"Yeah..." Peter said.
The adventurers ran to the right as Ordell rush at them. Ordell tears another piece of the wall and threw it at the adventurers. It barely missed them and crashes into the ceiling.
"Oh, fuck," Cyan curses.
Then suddenly, the adventurers could see a closed door.
"There're guards behind the door!" Peter yells.
Basil raises his warhammer and starts to run faster than the other, yelling while he charges at the door.
"INCOMING!" Basil yells.
*Other Side Of The Door*
"Alright people! Behind this door will lead us to the intruders," The captain said. "If we don't manage to catch then well..." He said shaking his head. "We'll be six-feet under the ground. So, got it?"

"Yes, sir!" The guards yell.
"Good!" The captain yells. He then turns to open the door.
"INCOMING!"
"Huh? What was that?" The captain asks.
The door then went flying from its hinges, sending the guards flying along with it. Basil continues running with the rest following after him, stepping on the guards as he did.
"Hahaha!" Lupin laughs.
Drake looks back and became worried. "We got a problem," He said nervously.
"What is it?" Lester asks.
"The one-eye no face creepy fucker is catching up to us," Drake responded.
"Oh yeah, we have a problem!" Cyan panic.
Lester pulls out more explosives more his pocket, he also pulls out several vials of something and threw it behind.
Ordell dodges the explosives, it then explodes behind him. Ordell held up his arm as the vials hit and break his thick bone armor.
What the vials left behind was chemical dust that irritates Ordell's single eye. "Arrgh!" Ordell growls. He then went crazy and rushes blindly at the adventurers slashing his nails, not caring about anything.
Ordell slashes Drake's legs, causing him to grunts with pain as he fell to the ground. Drake grabs his sniper rifle and fires it at Ordell.
Ordell blocks the bullets with his arms and smacks the sniper rifle away from Drake's hands. Ordell raises his hands to impale Drake's head, Drake tilted his head, dodging from being killed, and raises his camera and flashes it at Ordell's open mouth which houses his eye, blinding him.
Ordell grunts in pain. "You litt—" He was interrupted when he was stabbed in the back by Lester.
Lester leaps back and Basil smacks Ordell with his hammer sending him crashing into the wall.
Lupin helps Drake up, Cyan grab Drake's rifle and hand it back to him and start running with Lester and Basil following.
"Urgh," Ordell grunts as he pulls himself out of the wall.
"Sir! Are you alright?" A guard said running to Ordell.
"Shut it."
"Sir, We have man—" The guard start to talk but was unable to finish his sentence before he was killed by Ordell when his head was sliced off by Ordell.
"When I tell you to shut it, you shut it," Ordell growls. He then turns to the other guards that were nearby and orders them to run after the adventurers. "Go after them or else you'll end like him." Ordell points to the dead guard.
Lester threw a flashbang down the hall, blinding the guards, and then Basil charges at the guards carrying a door as a shield.
"I'm running out," Lester mutter as he ran down the hall.
"You guys are nearly out," Peter said.
"Good," Drake said as he fired a shot.
"There's the exist!" Cyan yells.
"Finally!" Lupin shout.
They ran out of the building and hurry back to the car. Piling into the car, Lester starts up the car and starts driving avoiding the main road.
On their way home, they could see guardsmen driving cars to the building, marked by the symbols that show that the cars belong to the guardsmen.
"Back At the Building*
"Where are they!"
Ordell rushes to the exist yelling. Dead bodies of guards that didn't get out of Odell's way litter the floor.
"WHERE ARE THEY! WHERE ARE THEY!" Ordell roars. However, fear soon settled into Ordell and he began quivering in fear.
"H-He's gonna kill me," Ordell whimper.

Nathan Jones is an 18-year-old who has just recently been accepted into his favorite college. To celebrate, he invites his friends to a vacation on an island in the Bahamas that was just recently made tourist-friendly. Little did they know that the island was a magic portal into a different world like in the Light Novels that Nathan read in his spare time. In this world, there are demons roaming about and destroying kingdom after kingdom after escaping the Great Abyss made by the first hero of the land Liathys. Being 4 Legendary classes, it is up to these 4 friends to use their godly powers to restore peace to the world, all of them doing it in their own way. The original title was "In A Torn World Where Cheat Specs Save Our Lives", but I thought it was too long so I changed it to simply "Torn World".

2093 ADEarth's natural resources have been depleted. We Humans could survive only just for a few years. We became desperate, we search and search for new resources for us to exploit, but we never found them. Until someone thought of something. "The society of the past even though they had different problems, they must have an answer to their conundrum. Perhaps we can use them too." We continue our research, nights and days have passed, however all of our research only lead to one thing and one thing only the Philosopher's Stone. It could generate energy without having to take any energy. Basically, it broke The Laws of Thermodynamic and Einstein's Law Conservation of Mass Energy, no, all the rule and law that we know of, doesn't apply to the Philosopher's Stone. But how? Where can we found this crimson colored gem? 2094 ADWe the researchers at the Genesis Lab finally found our answer. The Philosopher's Stone is not a Gem or any other precious mineral. It is an Organism, that can replicate itself perpetually. Our greedy minds have already started thinking of various thing especially about 'how can we abuse this poor thing' kind of thought. We can feed them to livestock. Additionally the excrement of those livestock can be used as a fertilizer. Voila! Infinite food and oxygen. But still, we don't know where to find this crimson colored life-form. Spring 2095 ADWE FINALLY DID IT!When we are deciphering some sort of ancient text related to the Mayans, we found out about where it was and how can we obtained it. The method that ancient people used seems to utilize human sacrifice as an offering to Gods. But hey, now we know that Gods exist, and more importantly Their whereabouts. If the ancient people used human sacrifice as the toll to open the portal. Then, we the modern people could simply use some sort of mini-sized black hole with specific coordinate to force this hidden life-form come to this world. Fundamentally, we just needed to mimic the portal that Gods himself open to answer their offering. Allright, let's do this. Summer 2095 ADEverything is progressing as we wanted.Every trivial thing on our side seems to be working in order.We can commence the operation 'Child's Play' early next year.-LB-
