《Sway(Wattys 2015)》Crimson red
Advertisement
As soon as the car had stopped outside the mansion I opened the car door and rushed out to tell the girls what had just happened.
With the speed I was walking at it had only taken me a few minutes to reach the outside of Tasha's door.
I quickly knock the door and pushes my way in nit waiting for a response.
"Tasha!!!"
"What?" She asks
"Where's Nicole?" I ask
"I'm here" she responds as she appears form around the the corner
"What's the matter?" They both ask in-sync.
"Me and Ivan kissed" I state
They both look at each other strangely before looking back at me
"What?"
"Really? It's taken you this long"
"No I mean like proper kissed, with tongues and everything he even slapped my ass" i excitedly tell them
"Kinky!" Nicole said as she hurried over to me
"What was it like?" Tasha asked
"It was so good, he was so skilled with his tongue....it sounds weird but he was in total control..you know what I mean?"
"Ah this is exciting!" Added Nicole
"Yeah Right!!! Especially now since I've found my mate!!!" Tasha added catching Nicole and I by surprise.
"What! Who! When!" I ask
"A few days ago his names Lincoln, he works in Ivan's office and he is perfect"
Her eyes were lit up when she spoke of her re found love.
"Is he a vampire like you?"
"Yeah and he's only a few years older then me"
"Omg you know what this means" Nicole begins to say
"What?" I ask
"Triple date!" Nicole responds
We all immediately start screaming and jumping around like little 5 year old girls over the thought of us all going out together.
"But when?"
"How about tomorrow?" I suggest
"Yes!! We can all go shopping in the day and come back here to get ready with each other" said Tasha
By now I had just about run out of energy to jump around and scream, so I said goodbye to the girls to go tell Ivan about the arrangements being made.
"Ivan?" I call out as I search the quarters for him.
There was no sign of him so I left the room to try and find him.
"Hey Miss jones, have you seen Ivan?" I ask
"Hello Rogue, I can't say that I have, its midday so he's probably in his office or taking care of business down in lockdown" she responds
"Lockdown?" I ask
"Yeah in the forbidden area in the woods, it's where they keep all the outsiders, intruders and trespassers" she responds
"Oh"
"You didn't know about it?" She asks, as her face starts to go pale.
"No, it never came up. What does he do to them?" I ask
"Umm-Uhhhh, well I don't know" she stutters
"You're not a very good liar are you Miss Jones?...since you won't tell me I'll just have to go and see for myself" I reply.
I decided against going there right away instead head back to the girls room.
"Back so soon" Tasha jokes
"Girls we are going on a mission tonight" I state, with my hands crossed over my chest.
"A mission?" They both question
"Yes...."
"Where to"
"Lockdown" I blankly state
They both look at each other again then burst out laughing, there giggles and chuckles slowly died out when they realised I wasn't joking.
"No fucking way!" Tasha shouted. Her choice of words had caught me by surprise.

"Come on, I think that's where Ivan always goes in the night" i reply
"Well good for him... I'm not going down there Rogue, you think Ivan was mad when we ran away, he would kill us if we went there. It's called the forbidden area for a reason!"
"Don't be a baby! I'm going with or without you two. Ill be at the back entrance at midnight if you want to come, where black and bring a light" I respond before leaving the room for a second time.
Once I had returned to my room, I scanned my wardrobe trying to find something to wear.
I picked out my black tight jeans with the ripped knees, black turtle with a plain black fitted raincoat. I managed to find a flash light that was hid under the kitchen sink. Once I had everything sorted I put it away out of sight.
The hours had passed and i couldn't stop the excitement and nerves growing inside of me. I was scared but my curiosity was growing by the minute.
I was currently in bed thinking of the consequences of my actions, if I got caught Ivan would be mad at me, he probably won't trust me again. We had just made up, did I really want to risk it?....yeah
Ivan had returned later on that night around 10pm, he came into my room to check on me, i reassured him I was fine, trying my best to control my heart beat as well as my thoughts. He had left again shortly,most likely returning to the forbidden area.
Midnight was nearing so I made my way to my wardrobe, grabbing my clothes and quickly changing. Once I had done, i left my hair down and put on my all black ankle length converse before leaving the room.
I checked for Ivan but he wasn't there so I left the quarters and made my way to the back entrance.
I stood by the door out of the way, making sure I was out of sight.
With a quick look at my watch it was exactly midnight. I was growing anxious that the girls wouldn't show.
A few minutes went by so I decided to go alone.
"Wait for us you maniac" Tasha sharply whispered, as she scurried towards me with Nicole a few steps behind.
"I thought you weren't going to show" I confess
"What and let you go alone. Yeah right" Tasha replied
"I see you both stuck to the dress code, have you got a light?" I ask
They both hold up there flashlights and with one last look back I made my way out the door.
"This is exciting"
"I know!" I reply.
We were all waking across the field towards the forest.
"Come on let's pick up the pace" I suggest
As we all start to slowly jog onwards.
It had taken about 5 minutes to reach the beginning of the forest.
This place screamed 'a-creepy-location-where-no-one-can-hear-you-scream-as-you-are-viciously-being-murdered"
Which only made me more curious.
"Does anyone know where this forbidden lockdown thingy is?" Nicole asks as she nervously chews her jumper sleeve.
"No but I should be able to smell them"
"Well then let's go" I encourage
It had taken us a long time to find this place but we eventually did.
There was a wooden door covered in weeds and plant roots, which it had made it even harder to find.
"Right so here's the plan, we are all going to go in, i will take the lead and you two follow. If at any point you feel in danger run alright, we don't know what's down there so the last thing we want is anyone getting hurt. Keep as quiet as possible, no talking, no crying and certainly no screaming....Nicole. The aim is not to get caught so don't wonder off or touch anything,we wanna be in and out as quick as possible.....if you want to back out nows the chance to say" I whisper as we crouch behind a tree

"What's the point, we are already came this far, might as well see what they do down there" Nicole replied
"Tasha?"
"Whatever, but if we get caught in you're taking the blame"
We all prepare ourselves before standing up and walking towards the door.
"Ready?" I ask
They both shake there heads and push the door open.
I take a deep breath before stepping inside, making sure to be as silent as possible.
There was a long dark corridor, the lighting was minimal so we were unaware of what was around us.
Tasha grabs a hold of my jacket and Nicole does the same to Tasha's. We move forward slowly, making sure not to step on anything in the process.
The room begins to open up a bit, two curved entrances were positioned either side of the room.
"This place is a dungeon" Tasha whispers
We make our way to the right entrance as it was the closest entrance.
"Oh.my.god" were the only words that left my lips
"Jesus Christ" Nicole added
"What is this place?"
The cement walls were covered in blood, numerals and ancient transcript covered the ceilings, whilst melted wax covered the floors. There were puddles of blood and thick black liquid. Various crosses and religious pendants dangled from the ceiling along with wooden sculptures and voodoo creations.
"Is that..are those?...."Tasha begins but fails to finish
"Yup...they're bones" I state in horror
A pile of bones had been stacked and sculpted to resemble an alter.
The sound off footsteps nearing us had caused us all to hide a gap in the wall.
We all watch in horror as a man walks in with a giant knife in his hands. Fresh blood covering half of his shirtless body and on his face.
Nicole lets out a little whimper before she cups her hand with her mouth.
The man stops in his tracks and begins to sniff the air, he walks in our direction in at a sickeningly slow speed.
He was now only a few meters away from us and I could feel my heart was about to tear out of my chest.
Ahhhh!!!
The ear piercing scream had caused the man to disappear back into the darkness.
We all let out a sigh of relief as we try to regain our composure.
"What the hell is this place! Did you see all that blood...and i heard someone scream" i violently whisper.
"We really shouldn't be down here" Nicole responds
"Come on, I need answers"
I hop, jump and skip over the pools of blood tat covered the cold concrete.
We had made our way into a new room, once again we were left gobsmacked.
Weapons off every kind hung proudly on the decaying walls. Swords, blades, chains, guns, bullets. The list was unstoppable.
"This is a torture sanctum" Nicole points out
We both snap our heads in her direction, confused to how she got this conclusion.
"Look, there's blood on the weapon. Back there all those bones and paintings, they're sacrifices" she adds on
"What?! For who?" Tasha asks
Nicole shrugs her shoulders before responding
"The devil"
"The devil?" I question
"What? It's just a theory"
Another painful scream had echoed into the room.
"That was closer this time, we are almost there"
Once again we leave having been scarred for life.
"Cells" Tasha says in monotone
"You know what Nicole, I'm starting to think that your theory isn't that stupid after all" I say as I examine the steel enforced cells.
Aargh!!
I turned my head towards the dark entrance. Nicole and Tasha both looked towards me, nodding their heads.
I took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the darkness. I pushed my body up against the wall and peered my head around the corner.
My eyes widened at what I was witnessing.
A circle of men stood around three me that were hanging from the ceiling, thick chains were secured around their feet. Deep cuts were evidently clear on the hanging men's chest, blood dripped from there bodies onto the floor.
The men surrounding would occasionally walk under with their mouths open, collecting the blood that dropped down for the victims.
There were a few recognisable faces came into view, there was Chris and Colt covered in blood with their fangs out.
A familiar voice was heard then he came into sight.
Ivan stepped forward with two long blades in either hand. Just like the rest of the vampires, he was shirtless only this time blood was dripping from him, his face was covered as droplets of blood that feel from his ringlets. His usual golden skin was now crimson red.
He raised one of the deadly blades towards the men's chest and sliced all the way down, he stood under the man and collected the blood that fell from his freshly pierced skin.
Once he lowered his head i realised something was different, his jade green orbs were no longer visible instead coal black eyes shone with evil.
He dropped the blades down and signalled for Colt to lower him down. Once the man had reached the floor Ivan picked up his body using one hand that was tightly placed around his neck.
A handful of words were muttered before the man spat in Ivan's face. In an instant Ivan Slowly moved his back, sharp white fangs came into vision. He stuck his teeth into the mans throat tearing his flesh as blood sprung from his veins covering Ivan once again.
Ivan pulled away rolling his neck anti clockwise as he dropped the lifeless body on the floor.
I quickly look away unable to bare it anymore, I clamp my hand over my mouth and my knees buckle. My eyes sting and my stomach churns, I squeeze my eyes shut in attempt to calm myself down.
The girls silently came to aid, crouching down next to me. They both looked at me with worry then went to see what I was so distraught about .
They both looked back at me with pale traumatised faces.
"Colt" Nicole covered her mouth as she tried to stop tears from falling down her face.
We really shouldn't be down here, I don't want to know what Ivan was doing and I certainty didn't want to to know why his eyes were black, I thought he learned to control it.
Right now wasn't the time to dwell on these things, when Ivan comes back in the morning I'll find out what the hell is going on, but now I need to get out of here....we need to get out of here.
I signal for them to be quiet and to come over to me.
I turn around to head back out but slam into a bloody figure.
I fall to the floor and scramble back wards. Nicole runs to my side to help me up whilst Tasha stands in front of us both hissing at him and showing off her fangs.
A man comes out of nowhere and grabs Nicole and Tasha. I run forward in attempt to get away but the man I ran into grabbed me by arm pulling me back.
Nicole and Tasha are both pushed into the room where the torturous behaviour was occurring and I was being dragged in.
"Trespassers " the man spoke in a low and deadly voice.
I heard a growl echo in the air
Using his strength the man spun me around, showing my face to the curious vampires.
My eyes drifted from one beast to another until my sight locked onto the devil himself....Ivan

Dungeon Core Chat Room.
This is a slower-paced "experiment and dungeon building" web novel that tries to use the idea of peer-to-peer communication with Dungeon Cores instead of Dungeon to slave monster communication to break up the detailed dungeon building. Rank 1 description: (minimum met for system initialization...detailed description as follows) Each race was given a system by the gods to make up for their shortcomings and balance their place in this world. Humans: Abysmally bad at understanding and using magic unable to use more than the lowest of magic were given the "Skill System" magic in the form of premade skills with use, study, and mastery tied to experience. Elves: Intuitively understand magic and have long lives leading to vast knowledge and skill in their chosen fields. However, as a species, they have nearly zero sex drive and less than low fertility, so they were gifted the "World Tree System" with experience gained through the care of natural areas – gifting the chance of children to increase their numbers without dirty copulation. All “natural” or “wild” monsters are given an "Evolution system" designed around killing and consuming as many creatures as possible, slowly increasing strength and, at thresholds, allowing mutations to alter them multiple times. Dungeon cores are different. Unlike humans, they can see, manipulate and live off mana. Unlike Elves, they naturally crystallize after extended periods of time in high mana level areas. However, they cannot easily move or communicate and typically go insane without companionship. As a species other than the odd eccentric they are unimaginative. Brute forcing solutions without the drive to truly innovate. Thus they have been gifted with the "Dungeon Connection System" a magical version of the internet accessible by their peers that allows them to barter and sell: bait, traps, monsters, and knowledge, as well as entertain each other with “adventure streams” using exciting recorded battles and humorous reels of arrogant chumps biting off more than they can chew to often fatal effects. This is the casual story of a dungeon unluckily spawned far from potential adventurers forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in this world. Rank 2 Description: Justification. I've been on a dungeon core kick for months and while I love the genre – it's sparse with entries. Often the forced conflict gets repetitive and frantic solving of threats "power levels" the protagonist to god levels to progress the plot – taking away the nice steady progression fantasy I'm looking for. (Progression in this story is linked to how strong of monsters/traps/whatever he can create not his "level"...this is demonstrated by some of his newer monsters beating his older monsters not with discrete "this monster has 10 attack this one has 40") Additionally, the focus on 3rd parties with their drama takes away from the reason I’m reading dungeon core novels in the first place – I'm looking for magical crafting, experimentation and kingdom building – not defence from higher and higher levelled enemies looking to steal/destroy/control the MC. This novel is kind of just me writing the story I wish I could read. I like thinking about the experimentation that can be done in fantasy settings using 'mana' as an excuse to make up rules and try to keep them internally consistent. IE once I define how a rule works, I'm going to commit to keeping it – no breaking hard truths I've given when it's convenient, even if it backs me into a corner. Hopefully, that should make the story interesting to read even if it's SOL and less action-oriented. There will be problems to solve and a clear progression in strength (of created monsters and knowledge) however due to not wanting to force conflict for the sake of conflict the general theme will be closer to slice of life with few action sequences and no overarching goal so please keep that in mind when picking this up as the genre is not for everyone. Finally, I have a clear goal of what I want from this story (not an endless romp but a series of arcs and then a conclusion that's a couple of dozen medium-sized chapters long) I want to commit to finishing it or at least bringing it to a point of rest. I hate all the engaging stories that stop with a “hiatus” indefinitely so in the event I lose motivation I'll work to end this even if the ending becomes rushed/unsatisfying just to give a sense of closure. I’m planning on including several polls in terms of direction and taking feedback heavily into account if I get enough readers (but may choose to ignore it if it deviates too far from the direction I want to take this as in feedback like: “The MC needs a cartoonishly evil arch-enemy that wants to enslave him and force the mc to pump out magic items” or “the MC needs to make a body and learn teleportation then live with humans” will get shot down without consideration.)
