《Peacekeepers (COMPLETE)》49
Advertisement
I slowly climb a ladder and lay down as it jumps out another cockpit window. He sniffs the cigarette and then the air. He gets up and stabs into the train's tank. The man throws the cigarette into it before running like hell. I cover my ears as the tank explodes. As the fire dies down, he shouts, "I can smell you up there!" I peek over and he smiles, "You reek of cigarette smoke." I quickly aim the shotgun at him and fire, but he jumps out the way and leaps up, like some kind of feral animal.
I keep shooting and shouting at him. Eight shots later, he shakes his head while inching closer. I whisper, "I'm comin' Whiskey." His mouth gapes open wider than a hippo's maw as I slowly grab the flare gun's grip.
She slams the trunk door as I smile, "Thanks for changing our tire!" The young guy blushes, "No problem." I get in as he gets to his car. I stare at the wires as Whiskey gets in and puts the car in neutral, "Red to blue, don't die."
I knock them together and my hands jump away from a spark. "You won't die unless you touch the bare wire." I slowly make them touch and they spark, "Ok, rev it!" The engine revs and she puts it in drive. "All cars have a steering lock, just twist hard and it'll break." I smile, "Good to know-Who are we meeting anyway?" "You'll see."
Miles later, she waves, "Stop here." It's the Engen building. We both hop out and head in. "Whiskey, who's this?" The receptionist smiles with her hands under the desk. "Relax, she's cool." The woman pulls a gun from under the desk, "He's not happy that you stayed."

An elevator opens and it takes us up to the top. A large man sits behind bodyguards and taps his finger before looking up, "At least Norbert follows my orders." Whiskey shakes her head, "Didn't you see the video? We got a huge problem." He stands up and holds back his words, then continues, "I'm cutting our losses. He can infect others."
She looks down as I step forward. I halt as the guards raise their guns, "If we don't do anything, things will get worse!" He scratches his head, "Why are you in my office- Better yet, who the fuck are you to make demands?" He stares and goes limp, "Only one other person has that sadistic mug." I smirk, "We need to take him down."
Whiskey smiles at me, "What'll you need?" I turn back to the boss, "An army and fire weapons." He pauses, then looks back up at me. "If you get the tools, I'll give you the manpower." I walk up as they lower their weapons to shake his hand. "Come back when you have it."

Discord here: https://discord.gg/y8SPvutqyb (This link is finally one that won't expire... yay and all!)Kade Wilson is a retired Cop and an competitive Gamer. For the last 4.5 years he has held the number #1 spot on the VR World Games List. And while he did not win his last championship game he struck it rich. And to top it all off he is approached to be one of 500k hand-selected beta testers for an entirely new kind of game, an offer that he is incapable of refusing. Now he is trying to make money, take possession of relict find, stop pirates from harrassing them... all while trying to figure out who is a friend and who isn't. This is a work in progress and largely unedited. There shouldn't be too many spelling and grammar mistakes in there but then again, I am just the writer... Bear with me or contact me if you find something that is just too bad for you. Actually, I appreciate any reports of errors (spelling or continuity) that you find and let me know about. In the discord I have a dedicated channel for these reports. If you don't want to join... I do read the chapter comments. ;)There is one thing I want to point out though. And that is that I chose to place this story in a LitRPG and game universe so it doesn't have to be 100% scientifically correct. Also: Clarke's 3rd law!

NEWDIE STEADSLAW Part I
NEWDIE STEADSLAW is a randomized array of Chekhov's red herrings, non sequitors ex machina, run-on sentences, and em dashes—so many em dashes. It's like if the Bible and Shakespeare had a baby that they surrendered to foster care, then it got adopted by Alice in Wonderland and Dr. Seuss—the books, not the people—and then the baby fell down the stairs. In this metaphor, the stairs wrote the story. Part I is the tale of the adventures of Traycup and Roby as they try to hold down a job inside the hollow Earth—a place made possible thanks to the secret science of embargoed relativity—and they get distracted by dancing foxes, a giant's record collection, and something with a train, I think. It's a work of fiction—although to call it work seems insulting to, y'know, actual work—but the fiction label is apt, so, y'know, that's a win. Half the words are made up, and the other half are embarrassed to be seen with them. Part I is complete.

Irobu Vikria led a model life; she dutifully worked in the mines and devoutly worshipped her patron deity Hekal—that is, until a cave-in unleashed the spirit of the ancient King Thrun.

In order to escape the cave-in, Thrun tricks Irobu into casting spells—a dangerous and sacrilegious act in a land where magic is extremely erratic.

Determined to banish the uninvited guest, Irobu flees her homeland to join the one group that might be up for the challenge.
