《Curse of Change (Hiatus)》Chapter 1 - Bone Slicer
Advertisement
It was a stereotypical morning for me, David Johnson: wake up, brush my teeth, get dressed, eat breakfast, pack up for school, etc. As David was walking to school...
(David) The weather is fantastic today! Sunshine, a nice breeze, a good temperature...ah, what a perfect day! It's really a pity that I have to GO TO SCHOOL!!!
Yelling this, David suddenly stopped walking with an irritated look on his face.
(David) Grrr...this is so annoying...I don't wanna go to school, I wanna stay at home and go swimming in the pool...
As he was muttering, he suddenly felt something...strange. As if water was trickling down his neck, freezing the skin as it goes.
(David) What is this feeling...it's as if...all hell's gonna break loose...*shiver*
(???) You...noticed...me? Not...good...need...to...work harder...
David trembles, not because he was cold, but out of pure fear.
(David) Who's there?! {What are horrifying voice! It sounds just like a...a...}
(???) Who's there? Me...just...me...who is "me"...who am I?
A young boy with sickly white hair and blood red eyes suddenly steps out of the shadows. He is wearing ragged shorts filled with rips and tears. He is covered in dirt, obscuring his true appearance, and isn't even wearing a shirt. The strange youth suddenly does something that scares the hell out of David: he smiles. Not a normal smile, a smile that makes David feel like the boy is looking at an appetizing dessert.
(???) You noticed me...so can I...kill you?
(David) {Not good, this guy is totally crazy! Gotta call the cops!}
Whipping out his phone, David immediately dials 911 and begins to run away while holding the phone to his ear.
(David) Yes, hello? There is this crazy person who is threatening to kill me...yep...I am currently on Pearl Stree-

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Screaming, David arches his back against his will, and a look of intense pain appears on his face.
*CRRRRRRRAAACK!!!*
David, now a lifeless corpse, falls to the ground with his back bent in an unnatural fashion. The boy walks over to the corpse and stares at it with an emotionless expression.
(???) Need to...work harder...can't...let...them...see me...
The boy then takes on a confused look.
(???) ...only this...one...sensed me...but why? How?
*Sirens screaming*
*SCCCRREEEEEEEEECCH!!*
A police car comes to a screeching halt in front of the boy and a police officer steps out of the car, a fearful look in his eyes.
(Policeman) Put both hands in the air and hold them behind your head! You are under arrest for murder!
He yelled as he pointed his gun at the boy.
(???) ...noisy...
(Policeman) Did you not hear me?! Put both hands in the air and-*gasp*
(???) Too noisy...shut up.
The boy then raises his hand, and points at the policeman.
(Policeman) {Can't...breath...what did he do? Oh no...everything's going...dark...}
The policeman's lifeless corpse falls to the ground, and the boy turns away from it and begins to shake violently.
(???) Not enough...need more...more...more...MORE!!!
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM*
(News Reporter) Just 2 hours, the police found the dead body of a young man along with a policeman who were found at the site of the explosion that occurred yesterday...
(???) Woah, that's scary! I'm glad I wasn't there! Right, Alyssa?
(Alyssa) I agree, that's pretty scary, especially since I almost went that way to walk to school yesterday! Gosh, good thing I didn't. Think about it: you might have lost your best friend Elizabeth.
(Elizabeth) How many times do I have to tell you!? CALL ME LIZZY!! *pinches Alyssa's cheeks*

(Alyssa) Ouch, dat huwts, stobp id!
(Elizabeth) Grrrrr...fine. I'll stop...
(Alyssa) *Sighs and rubs cheeks* Geez...huh?
Standing near the curb is a young boy about 4 feet tall. He has messy white hair and ghostly pale skin. He is looking around anxiously as if waiting for something. Noticing this, Alyssa begins to walk over to him with a frown on her face, but is stopped by Elizabeth.
(Elizabeth) What's wrong?
(Alyssa) There's someone there! He looks lost. I'm gonna go help him!
(Elizabeth) Hey! Wait up!
Alyssa runs off towards the boy with Elizabeth in tow. As they approach the boy, he looks up at them quizzically.
(Alyssa) Hey little guy, what's wrong? What's your name? Are you lost? Are you looking for your parents? How old are you?
(Elizabeth) Hey, Alyssa, calm down! You're overwhelming him! Don't ask so many-
(Young Boy) Nothing is wrong. My name is Johnny. I am not looking for my parents as I don't have any. I was created 6 years ago so I am 6 years old. Also, I am not lost: I am merely searching for something kill. Any other questions?
(Alyssa and Elizabeth) ...Huh?
(Johnny) Anyway, since you don't appear to have anything else to ask me...can you please die?
*CRRRRRRRAAAAAACK!!*
2 more corpses fall to the ground with their backs arched in an unnatural posture, almost as if they were folded in half.
(Johnny?) Why did you answer their questions? They were annoying.
(Johnny) I was bored, Blitz.
(Blitz) I see. Well, anyway, you seem to be getting much better at using my powers now. You split the perfectly in half. Good job.
(Johnny) Thanks, and of course I am getting better! We are one and the same after all!
(Blitz) True, but not quite; remember, you are simply a personality I created for interacting with humans, you must still obey my orders.
(Johnny) Of course...Master.
(News Reporter) 2 school girls have been found dead on the street with their spines split. It appears that the "Bone Slicer" has struck again! Now, onto the weather...

Katra
Kardin lived a happy and good life. That is, till he was given a strange orb by an even stranger man, maybe even a demon. He watches as his village is burned, the villagers slaughtered and his friend devoured. He escapes into the Jungle of The Gods, a place of ancient ruins and deadly animals. There, he is changed and his fate diverges from what should have been his death. Now he must forge his own path in a world of great beauty and power, where death lurks around the corner and battles between veritable gods are fought. Where nations clash and ancient beings destory civilizations on whims. But unseen cogs move under the surface, events transpiring beyond simple understanding. Strange and powerful items called Artifacts have started to reappear across the land of Auren, empowering their wielders far beyond what cultivation can give. The Traezar Empire and all of Auren are on the precipice of war and strange beings have started to emerge, all with an agenda of their own. Chaos is brewing, and Kardin must survive it, all while trying to attain vengeance and understand his strange and anomalous Katra. ***Current Schedule*** I am currently releasing 1 3,000(Sometimes I end up writing waaaay more) word chapter halfs every week. If there is not some sort of notice as to why I have vanished, then I'm probably dead. Let's hope I don't die then, eh? *Ducks under flying knife* I own this cover, put my own blood, sweat and an hour of my time into it. Ahahaha! This story is inspired (I stress this word, as because most of the story is different) by Will Wight’s Cradle. I highly recommend you read it! (Please for gods sake, if you have something to say, please do it in a curteous fashion. I don’t need any more maniacs flying at me and trying to stab me with sporks, I am already insane enough to fill that role.*Winks*) **What is This Story?** Think cultivation mashed with western fantasy, put into a pot to boil and then drunk while it's pipping hot. All the while a mad man(me) cackles insanely over the pot, stirring. It draws from xianxia lightly, which means no exasperated angry young masters. No “genuis” or “prodigy” MC, one that is not OP, or anything of the like. If you don’t like cultivation novels, this might still be up your alley. MC focuses on “Life Shaping”, see poll 2 for more Info. Warning! If your are squeamish, that gore and traumatizing content tag is there for a reason. I shall dive into both bloody and disturbing scenes and the questionable ethics of manipulating life, and some of it won’t be pretty. With a dose of realism added in. I do add my own evi- I mean despic- no, sorry, interesting twists aswell. >:) Also, I HATE info dumps! *Steps out of the way of a charging semi* Still not dead! Arc 1 (Kindling): Chapter 1 - 13 Arc 2 (Metempsychosis): Chapter 14 - 29 Arc 3 (???): Chapter 30 - ??? A disclaimer, I am new author and am still feeling out my limitations. This story is my hope of bettering my writing skills and to have fun. Buckle up and enjoy the insane journey that is Katra. (Pronounced as cah-tra)

The Wild Touch
The world of Delmathar has many conflicts and plots that span over the whole world and even into the war torn oceans. That’s not even taking into account that the world is a candidate in the Realm wars… but that’s a story for another day. Instead we will follow the story of how a goddess’s botched attempt of using a weak earth soul to make powerful Grafter for her mother, ends up empowering an unsuspecting little boy. The boy who is called Nosal Brownwhisker, who happens to be a peaceful little buttonless-shirt loving little Capyban. And as the Brownwhisker family tries to juggle their everyday lives on their monster ranch and hiding little Nosal’s secret, more and more developments keep popping up in the village of Pancreedy that makes life more.. interesting. Author’s notes:This is my first fiction and I understand it will suck. Hopefully you will find it to be enjoyable enough to hang around. There’s not going to be any epic world-ending fights or any stuff like that, just some shenanigans generally with the story progressing very slowly as it changes from many viewpoints. The world of Delmathar may seem funky for now so I will promise a glossary every 15 chapters. The wild touch will be updated at least twice a week, with me having no backlog of chapters. So if I get mobbed at work or get sick I will let you know in my notes on a short chapter. I hope you enjoy, and thank you for the people who support me, give me encouragement and pointers.

The girl leisurely sat on a throne made of the same black fabric, that reality is painted on, her shoulder occupied by a crow with eyes like molten rock. Oh yeah, she looks like a four year old. Who is she? Why gather an army of such tremendous might? This is the story of a thing, that once was a normal girl, but hasn't been for centuries.
