The car ramped his body and sent him to the air.
He landed headfirst on the ground, his head cracked open and blood spill everywhere.
His name was Morich, and he died there.
After that incident, his body was inside a cramped space.
He moved his whole body around and a crack appeared.
Light beamed through the crack.
So warm… so nice… I better get out of here.
Morich continued to move his body within the confined space.
It shattered and he gasped for air.
Morich scanned his surroundings.
A cave?
That yellow must be the light source.
Wow! Whose eggs is this?
There’s twenty of them.
A puddle laid on the ground not far from him.
He moved his muscle toward the puddle.
Morich looked at his body through the puddle.
What the fuck!
His whole body was green mixed with a bit of yellow, silky skin and yellow eyes.
I’m a snake!
His stomach grumbled.
He creaked
His other siblings began to hatch.
Are they going to eat each other after they hatch? If so, I better get away from here.
Morich ventured deep inside the cave, but he didn’t find any food.
Why do I have to reincarnate as a snake?
His stomach grumbled.
Shit! I’m starving, if only I have an ability.
Morich sighed.
Then, a stat window showed up before him.
Eh?
The stat window showed his set of skills; Poison Fang, Camouflage, Heat Sense and Smell sense.
Ye-, wait, this kind of development only happens in manga and light novels… then… A fight will happen soon… Haha…
His face started to tense up.
I have a bad feeling about this…
His stomach grumbled again.
Priorities number 1; find food.
Priorities number 2, monsters.
Morich continued to venture deep inside to found.
But, all he found was a dead end after dead end.

You stupid mother fucker! Why the fuck you reincarnate me in this shit hole!
His stomach grumbled even louder than before.
Morich decided to head back to where he came from.
He followed the path he took and soon he arrived.
Morich found multiple snake trails headed in the opposite direction of where he went.
Brothers and sister, where are you going?
Morich followed the path his siblings made and found the exit.
Excitement coursed through him like a kid got his first candy.
He exited the cave, but something grabbed him and lifted him up.
What the fuck?
An eagle above him, its legs had grabbed him.
Morich tried to wrap around its legs and bit the eagle.
But, he didn’t make it because of how short he was.
Shit! is there any other way to stop this eagle!
A light bulb appeared on his head.
Wait! That may work.
He focused all his strength on his mouth.
The difference between me and a normal snake and you!
Is that I’m once a human and human stays on top of the food chain!
Morich opened his mouth.
He projected a stream of poison at the eagle.
The eagle shrieked and let loose of its grip on Morich.
Oh no you don’t.
Morich climbed on its leg and bit the eagle.
The eagle began to plummet to the ground.
They crashed neared a river.
Morich looked at the eagle and it didn’t move.
His stomach made a sound.
Well… it’s food to me… Bon appetite.
The meat was raw, but Morich didn’t care because of the hunger.
As soon as he finished, the stat window appeared and showed him his stat.
Hmm!
His eyes widened.
What is this?
The stat window showed him, a new set of skills; Claw, Flight and Sight.

Also…
Shapeshifting?
To used his newfound skill, he needed to use the shapeshifting skill.
Let’s try this out.
Morich transformed into an eagle and his skills changed.
Wow! I’m an eagle!
He flew around the sky like a child on the playground.
But then, his stomach made a grumbling sound.
Dammit! Again? I just tra- wait!
Did my hunger change when I transformed into a hungry eagle or did I used too much stamina?
His stomach grumbled again, but this time, it was much louder than before.
That thought needs to wait, I need to find food again.
He scanned his surroundings and found a snake on the ground.
Food!
He flew toward the snake.
You’re dead meat now!

A Bored Lich
"Screw magic, I want to learn how to do cool flips and stuff." Magic is awesome, until you've studied it for centuries. Doevm reincarnates into a human to experience the path of a fighter to its fullest and swears not to rely on magic. There is only one problem, a goddess stands in his way. She pits him against both the hero and the villain for all of eternity. How will he escape this, with magic or his fists? Maybe both?
8 643The Dog with a Chair
As of now, this story is dropped. It was an excellent learning experience, but the quality suffered too much from me trying new things for me to continue in good concience. Thanks to anyone that read it. I'm leaving this story up as a record of my first ever attempt at publishing something I've wrote. To any new writers out there, remember that even if the stuff you write is trash, you can still learn a lot from writing it. - November 17th 2020 Guy gets involved in advocacy for civil engineering projects, then gets pulled into an interdimensional war. Third person with a focus on one main character (Stanley) with the occasional point of view from another character important to story progression. Writing style tends to shift early on as I figure out how to write (this is my first book). Still learning, hoping to improve. Current style choice is to have a focus on character dialogue/actions with interspersed internal monologue in italics. No current end is set for the story, with the primary goal of this project being to learn to express myself in a written format. Storyline is kept as consistent as practical while covering things I find interesting. Governmental systems are mentioned, but not explained in extreme detail. Sci fi elements are used to reinforce and guide plot progression as I'm able. Personal goals belonging to each character are in the process of being developed, with the hope that they will support or oppose each other in interesting ways later on. Hope you enjoy :)

8 192To Blunt The Sharpest Claw
The Velvet Paw of Asquith Novels are a series of New Fable genre novels that involve cats and dogs and high adventure and romance and espionage and food-fights and hotels and explosions and car chases. With large casts, exotic locations and an absurdity only possible in the absence of human characters, the Velvet Paw of Asquith Novels blend Wind in the Willows with James Bond, though with more cafes and fewer badgers. This submission is the third title in its Morigan Trilogy, beginning two-thirds of the way through the series' longest adventure yet. Here's a quick recount of what's happened so far: When Oscar Teabag-Dooven, a Velvet Paw of Asquith, is ordered to investigate how a mysterious poet, the Ar'dath-Irr, is able to travel instantaneously around the world, two very bad things happen. Firstly, he meets Lydia, an insane librarian who punches everyone in the face, and secondly, the Ar'dath-Irr reveals he is intent on taking over the world. Although this second thing might be considered worse than the first, Oscar feels differently following Lydia’s destruction of a cafe, a library and his face in one afternoon. In comparison, thwarting world domination just seems easier. Along with Binklemitre, a fellow Velvet Paw of Asquith, and Lydia, Oscar infiltrates the Ar’dath-Irr’s realm of dark poetry to discover the dog not only intends wrenching the world apart but has no intention of cleaning up afterwards. As a result, Oscar decides it’s all too hard and goes home to have a bath. After lots of arguing and the sort of food fight that posh restaurants were invented for, Lydia and Binklemitre convince him that they must stop the Ar’dath-Irr for several reasons, one of them quite serious. A vibrant cast of characters collide as Oscar, Lydia and Binklemitre battle the Ar’dath-Irr and his disciples in an adventure involving exploding cafés and appalling hotels, car chases and inadvertent surgery, dreadful poetry, lots of arguments and at least one temper-tantrum, all of which draw the three into dark and convoluted corners of a world they weren’t aware existed. Moreover, any chance of sitting down and discussing things over some buns disappears when Lydia punches the Ar’dath-Irr in the face. This results in her having a psychotic episode and Oscar getting run over by an ambulance. Although Binklemitre suffers neither, he witnesses both, which is almost as dreadful, though not nearly so messy. An enormous battle ensues, followed by a dinner party and then everything explodes.
8 330For the Hoard
Ergo the dragon is enjoying his seasonal hibernation when human explorers from another world invade his lair. Sucked into an unknown land, and reduced to a fledgling dragon by the loss of his hoard; Ergo must struggle to survive in a world that has been utterly subjugated by humanity. More importantly, will he ever get to finish his hibernation!? note: while I ticked the boxes for sexual/traumatizing content, I mostly did that to keep my options open. I don't currently have any planned, nor do I expect it to be a significant part of the story. After all, the main character is literally a dragon.
