《Peacekeepers (COMPLETE)》24
Advertisement
My legs suddenly move on their own. "Hey! Quit it!" I try balancing with them, but I eventually fall over next to an
old man on a bench with his radio, *Bolt-Yes! Finally got the hang of it! I know where Tango is!* I quickly get up, "Who is this?" I hop up and down, *I'm part of you, trust me.* I stare off as they stop jumping. "Fine." "Can you go away? You're creepin' me out."
I don't say a word and just back up with my hands up before hopping around. After running down the street, the legs suddenly yanks to the left. "Hey! Can you warn me or something?!" A voice enters my head, "Left." I look down and then ahead.
"Good, just guide me, buddies." I run down through the crowds, "Don't you need a charge?" The legs spring me up over a car coming out the alley, I stamp down into running again. "The internet has been useful in learning- Short answer is no."
I smile, "See? You're learning already. Can anyone else hear you?" "No, you're crazy." "Right." I scrape to a stop and
twist to keep going. "What of Glad and Fox?" "Peacekeeper claimed they're dead, but I don't think that's the case.
Slow down and stay quiet." "How'll I talk to you?" I scrape to a stop and the legs slowly tip toe around. "I can see, hear and feel through you." What should I call you? "Legs simply won't do. Call me Switch." We make it over to a door.
"She's down there, Nick." I take in a deep breath. "Time to keep my promise." I open the door and slowly close it as two men walk towards a box, "You think the grandmaster made the right move?" "Nah, princess doesn't know anything." Switch brings me close enough to take both of them. I need them alone. "I'll send them a radio call." *J! Get down here!*

J groans and walks down. "Bitch'll be the death of me." "Sure hope not." I sneak up from behind J's friend and snap his neck up, then drag him back. "What uniform is that Nick?" I grabbed his gun, No logos, a new mercenary group?
We stand up and creep down a ramp. Switch sighs, "Don't be an imbecile!" I grin, "Don't be a baby."
I turn the corner, "M?" Switch zooms me up to him in less that a second as I stab him. I cover his mouth and lower him to the ground. "Door's locked from the inside." Can you drop kick me in there? Switch steps back as I cock the gun.
Switch runs and jumps as I lean back. Switch extends, slamming the door inward. "What the-" The woman reaches for her gun as I hit the
ground. I raise mine and shoot her in the knee, forcing her to sprawl out on the floor. Tango looks away from me, "Don't look at me."
After knocking that woman out, I make it to Tango. I sigh while cutting her free. She hugs me and groans, "Water." I
lay her down and get a bottle. "You look different." I smile, "How so?" "You have a constant smile on your face." I sit her up and had her drink. She looks up, "Your face is fucked up." I grin, "Whoa! Potty mouth."
She giggles then coughs. "First masochist convention?" She groans, "I'm guessing that's a yes." Switch stings me,
"Peacekeeper thinks you're going awol." "Shit, can you request for an ambulance?" She coughs, "I can barely walk."
"Sure Nick." We carry her upstairs and out the door. After laying her down and handing her a gun, I go back down. "Wait! What're you?" I shrug, "I'm going to get some answers." I shut the door behind us.

What would happen if someone reincarnated as a fork? Involves: merciless fork jokes, monsters, magic n' all that stuff, some profanity, maybe some gore (i'll keep it light), fork philosophy, and if you got advice on where to go next with the novel, comment, coz I only got a hazy outline.

Zeltis
Alexander Kent has many things going for him, but despite all his wonderful qualities, he still finds himself the target of bullies. The harshest of his many critics is the one who worries him the most: his father. A near-tragic accident renders Alex incapacitated. As he hangs on death’s door, he’s visited by the unlikeliest of beings: a demon. Their unfathomable exchange becomes even more troubling when he’s offered a second chance at life… in exchange for use of his body by the devil himself. Alex’s deal with the devil leads him into a hidden supernatural world, rife with mystery, danger, and a convoluted web of the worst the underworld has to offer. Now, he has no memory of his ill-fated deal and is desperate to break free of the hold the Demon King and his minions have on him, but escaping their clutches may prove to be more difficult than any battle he’s ever faced. (Author's note: I've had writers block on this for a while but recently hired a professional editor. I don't think it will be much longer before I have new chapters. A cover is also in discussion. I won't just drop it. Thanks to Papillion for the cover!!!)
