《Journey Of Destruction》Chapter 5: Becoming a Bandit Leader!
Advertisement
In a Dark Cave 6 men sat in a circle around a fire.Each Individual having a barbaric and messy appearance.These 6 men as a group are known by the name Black Dagger,An infamous bandit group known for their many crimes and heinous deeds.
(Jack POV)
"Oi fox how good was the loot today" said the tallest man amongst the bandits.
"The usual Boss" replied a lanky and red haired man.
Looking around at the bastards i call my men made me realize how long we had been together for.The Lanky red haired fella Fox,my right hand man.Crafty,quick witted and the smartest among us all.Then Garen although he may look like an average thief you would find in the streets.He's actually the most wicked of us here.He's known as the demon in human clothing for reasons i'd rather not recall.
After that comes our third member Barret.A greedy bastard who'll drool at just the glance of money.For a bandit he has a rather handsome appearance,messy blonde hair and blue eyes giving him the appearance of a small time hoodlum and playboy rather than a member of the "Evil" bandit group Black Dagger.Although he may be greedy he knows better to put money over his brothers.
Ross.A quiet fellow,the type that only speaks when neccesary.However all that can be mistaken as a facade if you get him to drink with you.He gets louder and more vulgar than Darrel the worst of us.Speaking Of Darrel.That bastard is practically a clown with how he never takes anything seriously.However he also keeps the group light hearted and merry most of the time.Then the last of us me,Jack.I would like to think of myself as the most normal here.Although i may be the boss of things i always have a couple of laughs with my men.As we are more brothers than comrades.

Today was a relatively normal day,find a carriage of some random noble,Steal their valuables and retreat to our cave.Sometimes if we're lucky we manage to find some women for us to enjoy.Unfortunately today was not such a lucky day.The loot we obtained was fairly average.Maybe we should change locations,the nobles we've encountered recently have all had average valuables and no women.As i pondered over this i noticed there was a shadow looming over us.I turned around to look to find a child in a black cloak at the entrance of our cave.
"Oi Garen looks like its your luck day,im sure that brat over there suits your tastes,she's quite a looker too"
Hearing what i said Garen abruptly turned his head towards the cave and bared his yellow crooked teeth in show of an ominous smile as he licked his lips.
"Indeed it is my lucky day boss,maybe she might be older than she seems to be so you guys could join in too!"
"Did you just...." muttered the girl.
"Huh....Thats a pretty boyish voice you got there girlie however im sure i won't notice that when you cry and scream for help" said Garen.
There he goes again...I almost feel sorry for this girl,probably some adventurer wannabe that got lost on their first quest.It'd be better if she fell into the hands of goblins rather than Garen,,what a shame,That beauty of hers will be ruined quite soon.Maybe if she looked older i would have taken her.
However before Garen could pounce on her,the girl had already dashed towards Garen at a speed faster than my eye could see and kicked him sending him flying to the cave wall.
"What the fuck!?!?"

Knowing the the quick witted fox i assumed he would take care of the freakishly strong tomboy.But i was wrong again as fox creeped up on her from behind she sidestepped him,grabbed his hand and flung him towards Ross as if he was weightless leading to Fox landing on top of Ross's short body.
(Theron POV)
After managing to escape from Nyarlathotep with my so called "blessings" i sent off both Helen and Alice to the Demon Kingdom Vazum to find the current state of it as well as general information about the continent and what had happened before our awakening.Needing gold and non suspicious clothing i headed off to find some bandits to steal from.As i was looking i happened to find a cave with 6 messy looking men which i presumed to be bandits.I hoped to complete my objective without getting my hands dirty and with just mere intimidation.However the the change of personality i had been warned of was stronger than i expected as i started to feel and notice the differences.
As i arrived at the cave entrance i heard one of them refer to me as a girl.....which i absolutely despise being mistaken as.These scoundrel's dare call me a girl!?!?
I rushed at the one that seemed to lust after my body which he thought of as a girl and gave him a gentle kick on his abdomen which i put more power into than i intended to.Humph not that it mattered such trash deserved it anyway.These scoundrels could not seem to recognize a superior being when they see one as another bug attempted to sneak up on me.Seeing such bugs underestimate their superior i decided to give the crafty one a light throw towards the short one that stared at me in an odd way as if he had never seen a manly male such as myself.Such a pitiful bunch,how weak are they to be thrown around like this.Killing them and taking their treasures would be no fun.Plus i do need surbodinates as Helen and Alice will not be with me for a while.....Perfect!
I'll whip these insects into shape
(Jack POV)
Still sitting dumbfounded staring at the monstrosity that threw my men around like dolls i suddenly had a chill run down my spine and an ominous premonition.The freakish tomboy rubbed her chin as if considering something which i feared was the death of us all.However contrary to my fears the tomboy pointed to herself and in a fittingly arrogant manner proclaimed
"Listen up maggots from today this moment you bugs are now under my ownership!"
"A-And if we resist?" I reluctantly asked.
"Well then i'll just beat you till you submit Hahaha!" the monster casually replied as she gave out a maniacal laughter that i would soon grow accustomed to as this fateful meeting lead to us becoming the 6 Feared Arch Dukes Of Hell in the late future.
Fearing such a beating i gave up any thoughts of resistance.However Garen seemed to be thinking otherwise as i saw him crawling towards the monster's leg.Before he could do anything the tomgirl stopped him with a stomp of her foot on his face as if he was a carpet.Instead of releasing a squeal of pain Garen let out a moan of what seemed to be pleasure marking this the day Garen awakened as an M.

Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.
