《Don't Put All Of Your Short Stories In One Basket》Lost Yet Again 2
Advertisement
This all felt legitimate. One of my concerns while taking this nap was that I would dream of unwanted stuff and that the whole journey would become unbearable. Yet, it had to be done cause there’s no way I’d pass my time waiting till we land.
This is all too real. I didn’t know till now what that absurd dream I just had this morning meant and honestly I wasn’t expecting to be a prophet. Just the idea that something that just occurred, I had dreamt about, is creepy. And why exactly a tornado? The flight could’ve been stopped by literally anything else, what are the odds of this happening?
I woke up finding myself in the shore of what seemed an island. My first reaction was that I was still dreaming, but that soon vanished cause I found it to be too true to be fake.
Cherry on top, it was only the three of us: me, Lucas and Anna. I have no idea whatsoever where the rest got dispersed or if they even are alive at all, since the airplane is missing as well.
Daniel quickly went and tried waking up Lucas and Anna, to see if they were in good condition. To his surprise, neither of them had any scratches either.
“What is going on?” cried Lucas. “The last thing I remember is that tornado and me closing my eyes. And now you waking me up. Where even are we?”
“Dan, where’s the rest?” said Anna.
“I don’t know. I don’t know anything.” replied Dan. “I just woke up, same as you two. I’m lost as well.
Actually, I was counting on you guys to tell me what happened while I was asleep.”
“Nothing much, we were watching a movie when we suddenly got notified that a tornado was approaching and that we had to stay calm. Then I immediately woke you and the rest is history.” responded Lucas.

“That’s peculiar.” said Dan.
“We have to find out if there’s anyone else in here.” intervened Anna and headed towards the forest.
Daniel quickly grabbed her and started explaining that that would be the dumbest thing to do right now since they didn’t know what they were getting themselves into.
“Okay, listen up.” said Daniel. “The number one thing we have to do right now is to try and survive till a ship comes this way and finds us.
But here’s the thing. Ships vary from how near they get to an island, they can watch from afar or actually get closer. And here’s the tricky part, if they stay afar there’s no way for them to spot us so we need something to signal them. On top of that we need something to stay warm during the nights, so building a fire is the most ideal thing to do.”
“You sure know a lot about this.” interfered Lucas.
“Yeah, I got lost once when I was a kid.” responded Daniel in all seriousness.
Anna and Lucas were staring at him.
“It’s a joke you dummies, it’s just common sense.” Dan broke up the silence. “Anyways, Anna might be right, there may be other passengers here. However, we can’t find that out yet since we are harmless. Let’s provide the essentials we need to survive first then we can look onto further exploring.”
Things were actually going smooth. They started getting stuff all around the place, making sure the didn’t overstep the boundaries. It wasn’t risky at all in their heads and they began to get a like at it.
Anna was setting a campfire with the branches Lucas provided. She had apparently watched this guide somewhere and was replicating it. Me and Lucas on the other hand were just gathering stuff all around. Food, fruits, wood and whatnot.

“But how competent is Anna, tho?” said Dan.
“Just ask her out already, jeez.” replied Lucas.
“Yeah, right. Whilst we are in the middle of nowhere and with perhaps no chance of getting back.” responded Dan.
“Well, yes!? Isn’t that the best case scenario?” said Lucas. “And what do you mean by ‘no chance of getting back’? I don’t really wanna be stuck in here.”
“Relax, I was just making it more dramatic.” continued Dan. “But I really think that I should make a move on her now that we are all alone.”
“That sounded creepy mister perv.”
“Shut up and proceed on your gathering.”
They both had giggled and continued looking for goods.
Evening soon arrived and they were all grouped around the campfire eating what looked like dinner, but sadly just consisted on some fruits and berries. It was starting to get cold but they wrapped themselves in some giant leafs they found and to their content they were pretty cozy. Everything seemed to be going well.
“What a crazy day this was.” said Lucas. “One way or another we got our summer camp.”
They all laughed and the mood was being set.
“Considering how well we managed our first day in here, “ continued Anna. “I’m pretty positive we are gonna make it out.”
They both nodded.
“Guys.” said Dan. “Since we’ll be here for a while or God knows how much, I was thinking that we should get to know each other better.
So I’ll start first.”
They all agreed to that.
“Remember before when I said I had been in a similar situation? Well, I wasn’t lying. When I was younger I actually got lost in an island.”

The Voice of the World
Jason Elric used to be an ordinary college student living in the heart of San Francisco. He had a part time job, he played online games with friends he got along moderately well with, and he earned reasonably good grades. The worst he really had to worry about in life was turning in his coursework on time and not being late to class. Now, though? Now fighting for his life and running from a horde of giant frogs that want to make him their next meal is just another Tuesday. Thanks to a summoning ritual gone terribly right, Jason has found himself trapped in a world eerily similar to the role playing games games he used to play for fun. Unfortunately for the now ex-college student, everything happening around him is terrifyingly real and if he wants to survive, he’ll have to figure out how to exploit the system for his benefit before it’s too late. The Voice of the World is the first part of what is planned to be a multi-book, Isekai LitRPG story with crafting elements, set in the fantasy world known as Verdania. This is my first time posting online for public consumption, so bear with me as I work to find a style that people like. While I may occasionally write scenes that may deal with heavy concepts, expect this story to be primarily light hearted high fantasy. There will be a lot of common fantasy tropes involved, as this story got its start as a simple practice exercise, rather than any plan to actually post it. However, it’s grown on me, so I felt it’s worth sharing after all. Thus, if you’re looking for more serious/original/unusual stories, you might want to look elsewhere. For the rest of you, feel free to leave suggestions, as well as to point out grammar and spelling mistakes; I’ll do my best to make edits to correct them. I do my own editing currently, and it’s easy to miss things when you know what’s supposed to be there, so such call outs are highly encouraged. Content TLDR: No harems, probably no romance (unless it makes sense for the story later on) (it did, eventually), definitely no sex (keeping this PG-13 or close to it), limited profanity. Does/Will contain mixes of magic and technology (think Warhammer, Final Fantasy); copious amounts of blue tables; race, gender, and sexual equality concepts; crafting sequences; and (slightly, but not overbearingly) strong protagonists. If you don’t like these things, go elsewhere instead of downvoting people for content instead of writing quality. Update Time currently varies, due to personal injury, but the goal is 1/week on Wednesdays, with a possible smaller chapter on weekends if time/health permits.

A Gray and Grey world
What if adventurers are not as they seemed. In the tales of old, adventurers were the ones who vanquished the demons and beasts from the land, the ones who sealed the great evil away, the ones who saved the world from destruction and kept peace within the lands. But, what if that wasn't really what happened? What if adventurers are selfish, narcissicistic, and- depending on who you ask- evil. What if they weren't the paragons of good that their history books show. As they say, it is the victors that write history. In this world, this broken world, the true nature of adventurers will be told, unveiled to the masses. In this world, where history has yet to be written, the true heroes will be shown. Or- at least, that's what should've happened. But then again- heroes, villains-... everything is relative to the one who sees it. Everything changes depending on who's perspective... Perhaps the heroes of this story- may not be the heroes that you might think. Author : Hello everyone! I just want you all to know that this is a first time story. I'm the one who's doing the draft, editing, proofreading and revisioning! I do aim to have a chapter up every week or so, thus I look forward to showing everyone the world I created!Editor : ^ Proof Reader : ^
