Jenna
I quietly close my door, so my parents don’t hear. If I could even call them that. They regulate my every move and keep me locked up in my room all the time. They’re not my real parents. Thank goodness for that. They are my foster parents, who I’m pretty sure hate me.
I only stay with them because they pay for my school and food. As soon as I have a good job, you can consider me gone. I don’t understand them. And right now, I’m focused on getting to Nova’s house. I grab their keys and shut the front door.
As I’m driving, I wonder what Nova could need. Probably just want to talk. My thoughts shift to the others. Our friend group is drastically unique; Solace, who comforts everyone, but rarely talks about herself. The only thing I know about her is that she takes care of her younger sister in their little apartment and that she is claustrophobic. She seldom speaks up, and when she does, it only lasts a millisecond. Then there’s Quinn. He adores Nova. Anyone can tell that, unfortunately, except her. And on top of that, there’s Michael. Nova says their perfect for each other, but he dampens her unique energy. She changes (for the worse) when he comes in.
I think Quinn would be perfect for her, and it would help get rid of the way he looks at her when he thinks no one is watching him. And then there’s Reagen. Nova cares so much about him and loves him so much, but he doesn’t want to burden her with his life troubles too. He hates himself because he cries so much and the kids at his school treat him like trash.
And I can’t even start on myself, but I love how we all have something in common. Losing our parents. I guess we all are a little messed up. I pull into Nova’s driveway, and the rest are already there. I open the door and sit down, and Nova gathers our attention. “So… guys.” She begins. I notice that Reagen is sitting with us. She looks at him periodically. I am very confused. Nova rarely talks to Reagen when we are there. He looks at me with an expression that confuses me more; part grimace, part curiosity, part wariness. I know nothing good can come out of this talk.

DEATH QUEST
You are Hayden Waltess. You have no skills, no money, one family member, and a few good friends. If you don't find a way to make six hundred golden claws within the next forty eight hours, your little sister Shale is going to die. Steal the money? You can't break wards, and you don't know anyone who can. Beg for it? You live in Lecliss, the corrupt capital city of Raun. Beggars pave the roads. No one will notice an extra pebble. Earn it? Not through any normal job. You'd be lucky to make even a single golden claw in a week. No. There's only one way to make that kind of money in time. In a corner of the adventurer's guild lit by a dim lantern, three long, dusty, ragged pieces of parchment are pinned to a huge board on the wall. Each piece of parchment has an enormous sum of money written in bold at the top, an illustration in the center, and then countless names of adventurers below, each name written in a different hand, each invariably crossed out with a thin red line. The sign above the board reads: DEATH QUESTS An interactive action/adventure story with game-like and horror elements, set in the same universe as my other story, Gattican Drive. You can also read it on webnovel. Updates once every three days (unless it doesn't)
