《Gone Before Raine (Interracial-Bwwm)》Chapter 3
Advertisement
The sun had just started to rise, the birds started chirping their happy songs. Raine rolled over in her sleeping bag.
"Ugh," She rubbed her eyes, sitting up in the tent. She was not use to being awakened by the animals of the wilderness. She looked over seeing Daryl and Ebony were still fast asleep. Raine climbed out of the sleeping bag and unzipped the flaps to the tent. A whiff of bacon hit her face as she piled out of the tent.
"You're up early." She remarks walking over to Cherry, who was tending something over the fire. Her guess was that it was bacon.
"I couldn't sleep last night." Cherry says flipping the bacon on the make shift pan.
"Same here." Raine sat down on the log, her hands covering face.
"No, like I felt like someone was outside the tent watching me and George." Raine looked up, "We were all asleep. Maybe you dreamed it." Cherry shrugs sitting down next to her.
"Maybe." Cherry wrapped her arms around her body. Raine raised a brow.
"Is that the only thing bothering you?"
Cherry shakes her head, staring down at the dirt. "What it is?" Raine moved so that she was sitting closer to Cherry.
"It's just...sometimes...I wonder why I'm with him?..." Cherry trails off looking at the ground. Raine wanted to say that she wondered the same thing too.
"Well....do you love him?" Raine picked up one of the bacon stripes. Cherry shrugs again, looking up to look at the sun.
"I use too....these days I don't know what I want anymore." She started to speak, " I don't think he loves me. He just likes that I do whatever he wants no questions asked." Raine wraps her arms around Cherry to comfort her.

"Do what makes you happy, Cherry. If that means you have to leave him, do it. I know it isn't that easy to leave a relationship you invested so much in, you just have to try." Raine suggested. Cherry wiped her eyes and nose with the back of her hand.
"Yeah-"
"Cherry?!" The two girls turned around to the voice that shouted out her name. George stood out the tent, putting on a shirt.
"What are you two talking about over there?" He asked kicking at some rocks. Cherry gathers herself together and sits up.
"Nothing. Raine and I were just fixing up some breakfast for everyone." George eyes them for a bit before walking away. Cherry glanced back at Raine, who just shrugged it off. The two girls went back to finishing the breakfast before Daryl and Ebony would get up. Raine got up and got the paper plates, handing them over to Cherry. Cherry plated the bacon and some pancakes on each plate.
"Yum, something smells delicious." Daryl steps out the tent, stretching his arms out wide. He walked over to Cherry and Raine, stealing a piece of bacon off the plate. "So good," he moans in delight chewing on the savory pig fat. Raine hits his arm.
"That was mine by the way!" Daryl finishes the bacon and grabs another.
"So?" He says with a mouth full of bacon. Raine shakes her head and adds more bacon to her plate.
"Want some pancakes?" Cherry asked Daryl with a smile.
"Oh, yes please!" He said happy to have more food. Both Raine and Cherry giggled at him.
"I want to know what's so funny." Ebony emerged from the tent, putting all her dreads into a ponytail.
"Just Daryl acting like he hasn't seen food in decades." Raine shoves a fork full of pancakes in her mouth.

"Damn, save some food for the rests of us. Not all of us eat as much as you do Raine." George came from the treeline. Raine rolled her eyes at his comment and continued to eat her pancakes. "And there is bacon? Gee, Raine did you eat all of your piggy friends too?" Raine sat down her plate besides her. There he goes making her feel self conscious now.
"Would you stop with the fat jokes? She isn't even fat." Daryl spoke up, defending Raine. George chuckles and grabs a plate for himself.
"I wasn't even talking to you, but since you want to act all bad I'll let you have your moment. I wouldn't want your gay behind to get all rallied up."
Everyone was silent as they stared at George in disbelief.
"Okay, making fat jokes about me is alright, but you just crossed the line. You had no right to say that to him!" Raine shouted throwing a cup of water in George's face.
"Yeah that was uncalled for." Ebony voiced her opinion. Daryl stood up with his plate.
"I'm going to eat in the tent." The girls watched him walked off.
"Why do you always have to be so mean to my friends?" Cherry glared at George.
"Oh shut up, I don't want to hear you. Go back to making the pancakes." Cherry looked at him in shock.
"You're an a**hole!" She set down the bowl of batter and walked off. George shook his head and started eating. Raine was not going to sit there and bask in his company.
"I'm out." She got up and walked to the tent. "I'm coming in." She opens the flap to the tent. Daryl was resting on his sleeping bag, staring up at the ceiling of the tent.
"You okay?" Daryl nods his head, but he doesn't say anything. "You shouldn't listen to what he says. I let his words get to me, but now I'm over it. He isn't important." Raine lets out a sigh and gets up to leave when he doesn't say anything.
"Thank you for saying something." Daryl looks at her.
"No, thank you." Raine walked out of the tent and made her way down to the woods. There was a running path and she decided she would go on a walk to explore it. On her way, she picked up a random branch and started breaking tiny bits off it.
All around her was a sea of green. Every now and then she would swat away a mosquito that would rest on her arm.
"Yuck." She groans feeling the bug squish on her arm. Raine looked around at the place she was standing in. "What is this?" She looked down to the ground and brushed the dirt off the object. Keys. Raine frowned as she walked further into the set up.
"A camp?" She mumbles to herself. Raine walked over to one of the tents and looked inside. Everything seemed to be intact, besides the evident fact that it had been a while since anything had been used. Raine did not like this site, it made her feel sick for some reason. Where were the campers? She went to turn around, but someone grabbed her arm.

Zeltis
Alexander Kent has many things going for him, but despite all his wonderful qualities, he still finds himself the target of bullies. The harshest of his many critics is the one who worries him the most: his father. A near-tragic accident renders Alex incapacitated. As he hangs on death’s door, he’s visited by the unlikeliest of beings: a demon. Their unfathomable exchange becomes even more troubling when he’s offered a second chance at life… in exchange for use of his body by the devil himself. Alex’s deal with the devil leads him into a hidden supernatural world, rife with mystery, danger, and a convoluted web of the worst the underworld has to offer. Now, he has no memory of his ill-fated deal and is desperate to break free of the hold the Demon King and his minions have on him, but escaping their clutches may prove to be more difficult than any battle he’s ever faced. (Author's note: I've had writers block on this for a while but recently hired a professional editor. I don't think it will be much longer before I have new chapters. A cover is also in discussion. I won't just drop it. Thanks to Papillion for the cover!!!)

Avaria: A Pay To Win Adventure
Avaria is a game like world where the wealthy are the strong. Want more strength, a specific skill or spell, well there's an item for that. If you can get it of course. These items are rare and far from plentiful, hoarded by the wealthy that can afford them. Acquired from Avaria itself, these items are dropped from strong monsters and dungeons, so if someone doesn't have the money, they must get it the hard and dangerous way. Don’t worry though, even the poor are born with at least one skill or spell that could help them in life, apart from the basic mana skills that everyone is born with. Usually these skills and spells are passed down from a parent. Of course, that doesn't mean they can use it. Any skills from birth are locked and unusable to start. Unlockable through great effort and practise, something many are unable to do without some guidance. There is another much quicker way however, through gaining experience from killing monsters and using that experience to unlock it. Adam is a human summoned to this world from earth. What effect can he have on this world when he is given a skill that he knows can be used to help many people, with the desire to do just that. Unfortunately it won't be so easy, as there are many obstacles in his way. It’s a cruel world, but he will have help and doesn’t have to do it alone as he meets new companions and makes friends along the way. Lianna is another human from earth who is summoned the same time as Adam. Though things go much differently for her as she is quickly enslaved, beaten and tortured. Unable to understand what her enslavers are telling her, she has a difficult time following through with the commands given to her. Forced to fight creatures and level up against her will. Authors Note: Aiming to post 1 chapter/week, while writing at least 1 chapter/week.

The Ingress Estate
Jonathon Eucole. Soldier. Scholar. Now an Initiate, the dedication without dedication, he finds himself both prisoner and master of an arcane edifice, the Ingress Estate, which can neither be escaped, nor controlled; only diverted, maintained, and pacified. This is a gothic fantasy story, set in a world in which gods and the afterlife are not only real and known, but were both established in living memory of some of the inhabitants after millennia of arcane warfare with the being who constructed the mundane reality the humans occupy. But this isn't the story of those who colonized the afterlife at the cost of their own humanity, but a somewhat more ordinary man, in somewhat extraordinary circumstances. This is also a LitRPG-lite, which means there's a system of sorts, fragments of which can be observed through Jonathon's eyes. Don't expect level-up screens, or statistics, or indeed numbers much at all, beyond those the inhabitants of the world itself apply to understanding their own reality. It pretty much doesn't matter to the story, I mention it so those who don't want to read LitRPG at all can successfully avoid it here. I don't have any particular plan here, just some ideas inherent in the genre. This is a character concept I toyed with some years ago; an old man, bright of mind but weighed down into apathy, both by his past and his responsibilities for a terrible estate that cannot be left without stewardship. Don't expect any kind of overarching plot or story, because that's really not what this is about. Also don't expect much dialogue. Or character development. Or much of anything, really, because I've planned nothing in the way of an actual book, here. Other relevant information, if you've read this far for some reason: The MC isn't super-powerful to begin with, and probably never will be. He's a veteran with some useful skills, and the insight on how to use them, so can deal with the world's ordinary threats reasonably well, but not too much beyond that. --- Currently on hiatus, as currently the story has a rather poor ratio of effort-to-personal-payoff. I may return to this once I have a clear idea of how to get the stories where I want them. I've started a more standard LitRPG using the same system. But if you like intelligence characters who cleverly min-max their classes, it probably isn't the story for you; it's the story of a rather ordinary guy who winds up in a very similar universe.
