《Gangs From Another World》Chapter 16 - From Pawn to Knight
Advertisement
As soon as that question left me, I received another random thought, and before I could say something out loud, or mentally, my mother appeared before me.
Tears uncontrollably streamed from my face as I rushed to hug her. She patted me on the back of the head and all my fear, anger and rage left.
“There there lil’ Knight, it’s ok.” she said.
The realities of the ghetto didn’t feel so bad. She rubbed my back as she continued to embrace me.
“Mom, please,” I pleaded “Never leave me again. I need you! Anna needs you!”
My dad snapped his fingers breaking the spell.
“SON! Turn off your Attention Deficit Disorder and pay attention for five minutes. You can’t live here, your body would wither and die,” he snapped back.
My mom spoke up, “Lil’ Knight, if you don’ go back who will take care of Anna?”
I nodded in agreement, they were both correct.
“OF course we are correct, we went through the same thing when we lost our loved ones,” my dad replied, and mom smiling back at me.
“B-b-b-but can I come..come back right?” I asked expecting them to say no.
Arise, young Knight!
“Uh yeah,” my father said. “Wait, before you go, son FYI, about that Knight thing, you might want to look into that. I think it’s still valid. Check with the Royal Court of Records, not the Common Court of Records. We also own land, at least we should.”
“What? How did this even happen?” I asked, sounding excited and frustrated at the same time.
“Right, here’s the short version, before I left the Inquisitional Purification Bureau, Section 777 I think it was called, the team I was with saved the life of a Count and his family. So he knighted me and gave me some land. It’s more of an honorary title that anything else.” He oh-so casually said.

Before I could ask him for more details he punched me in the stomach.
My body felt weightless as I began to float up. Darkness surrounded me and slowly closed in. I quickly opened my eyes and saw Anna looking down on me. She was holding me on her knees. Her face was soft like mom and still wet from crying.
I reached up to touch her, to wipe the tears away. She took my hand with hers.
“You stupid trog, you scared the shit out of me” she whispered back.

The Choice of Twilight
Growing up has always been difficult. It's even worse when you have to do it all in one night. On the eve of his thirteenth birthday, Ty awakes to find himself in a dreamworld, one-so he is told-that exists to pit him against his greatest fears and insecurities. And to ready him for a final choice. Luckily, Ty is not without friends. He soon meets Gentry, a wooden puppet his grandfather made for him years ago, walking and talking, ready to help Ty learn what he needs to return home in one piece. But that won't be easy when a cruel and abnormally tall skeleton dressed in mockery of Santa Claus and his suit hates Ty's guts. San wants nothing more than to best Ty and do what none of his kind has ever done before: defeat a child that has made "the choice." But Ty will stop at nothing to fight back against everything San's got in order to face his fears and grow up. Because, if he doesn't, he will end up a kid forever. Or, worse...never wake up again. This story is perfect for you if you are a fan of Coraline and Kingdom Hearts, both of those stories greatly inspired this one. I have recently added the Isekai tag after being unsure if it counts or not. I've decided it fits the description of what it is but not the current trends in the genre. If you go in with Coraline in mind I think you will have a better idea of the kind of Isekai this is. And I've also added the Slice of Life tag, that is only for the first five or six chapters though, then Ty enters the dream world and it pretty quickly becoms a progression fantasy, a mix of more traditional fairy tale like trappings alongside more anime action and acquisition of slowly increasing powers. With all that out of the way, please enjoy! Updates every Tuesday and Thursday! What time of day? It's a mystery! (For now)
