Tango grabs me by the collar, "Still! I'm staying and my death'll be on you!" I gasp under my breath, "You want to save innocent lives, you gotta man the fuck up!"
I look up at her, "How are we gonna kill something that's immune to bullets?"
Whiskey smirks, "Fire, of course! That fucker caught fire and ran off." Norbert turns to Whiskey, "I thought you weren't gonna help?"
She smirks, "You kids are gonna die without me." I shrug, "Why do we need you?" "Connections all over the city, contact killers, weapons dealers, you name it."
Tango stiffens up, "You had all that, this whole time?!" Norbert jumps into the cockpit and starts slowing the train down, "Oh Christ."
Whiskey laughs as Tango yells, "Why didn't you just send hit men to kill Reede in the first place?!" I mumble, "Because they already tried."
Whiskey put her hands on her hips, smiling, "How'd you know that?" I shrug, "Lucky guess." "No, you're hiding something."
I gasp as Garvey appears laughing, It's the killer instinct.
I shake my head, "Did you even see what Reede's doing?!" I tilt my head, "Hmm?" "Tango, show him. Tango sighs, "I broke it." Whiskey sighs, "Just tell him what you saw." Tango looks at me, "Over thirty people are dead, just to make him bulletproof. It was done at that Genesis Lab." I yawn, "Shocker."
She continues, "Did you see that giant thing coming for us too?!" I frown, "Nope." We come to a stop and I fall over. I groan at the pain.
"We need to get him to a doctor." Whiskey rubs Norbert's shoulders, "You coming too?" He debates himself for a moment, "Nope, it's a nice beach for me." "Just like that, Norbert? Coward." He looks down as he gathers his things.

Tango walks me out to the platform and gets me into the jeep, "I'm glad you're not giving up." She goes to kiss my cheek and I pull away. If I love you, you won't soar high. You'd be just another bird, with it's wings broken. She scratches her head as I stare into her eyes, "We're a team, Tango." She laughs softly, "Yeah, a team."
Whiskey comes out, "Whatcha guys doing?" Tango blushes, "Nothing!" Norbert comes out with a backpack and his head down, "Take care, you three." He hops down as Whiskey waves, "C'mon, they're all looking for that jeep."
I walk out the car and they both help me down. We walk down the street. A lonely car is parked near us. Whiskey grabs a brick, throws it through the window and gets in as the alarm goes off. Tango puts me in the back seat before getting up front. "C'mon-" The engine started, "Still got it!" "Hey! Come back here!" She makes the tires squeak before driving off.
About five miles later, we stop in front of an abandoned building. "Well, this is the place." Tango gets out, "I was expecting a hotel, something fancy." Whiskey sighs, "This isn't some action movie." I grab Tango's hand and get out, "But expect shit to get reaal dark."

May Aien Have Mercy
He was a slave for life, born without a name. One of many, and yet few, that allowed the majority to live comfortably at the cost of their well being. Despite these circumstances, his kindness and righteousness knew no bounds. Not once had he resented the Gods or blamed destiny for his circumstances. Not once had he lost sight of what he believed in, no matter the cost he had to pay to do so. This was the man known by his peers as Mentor. Yet, even the ideals of such a man had one day begun to crumble under a cruel reality. An escape attempt ended in failure, resulting in a vicious punishment that led to the man's demise.

Alas, he didn't know how whimsical fate could be. As betrayal followed him with every step, he realized, time and time again, the shackles of his own destiny. Until at last, as he was faced with the injustices of his two lives, his ideals and hopes were broken beyond repair. Unwilling to restrain the accumulated hatred within him any longer, he'd finally unleashed it upon the world, where none would be spared from his hate-fueled vengeance against the world.

Death By Protagonist
Donavan has made his living by wading through hundreds of stories in search of the quality few he and his firm believe to be worth publishing. After a strange twist of fate, he gets trapped inside the fantasy book of a particularly campy and amateur author. There he will have to navigate a world built on wish fulfillment, power fantasies, and fanservice in order to fix the story from the inside out if he ever wishes to leave. But can he bring himself to play the many roles necessary to manipulate and guide the characters to a satisfying conclusion? Authors Note: Death By Protagonist is meant to be simultaneously a satire of, and love letter to the isekai/portal fantasy genre. It both makes fun of and embraces many tropes of the genre such as harems, explicit sexual content, OP protagonists, and other things many people might think of as "trashy." If that doesn't sound like your thing, you've been warned, but I hope you'll give it a shot anyway. Update Schedule: Plan is to at least put out one new chapter every week, hopefully two.
