《Wonderland: Origin Arc [Script]》2.7 - The Rat
Advertisement
[Shows a house with brown walls in it’s corridor, a few pictures hung up showing a couple together. The door at the end of the corridor leads outside, as a few lights from cars travel past it during the late night. At the door, through it, appears a silhouette. They’re blurred by the window, but they appear to be wearing a brown coat, blue decoration on a white shirt and have blonde hair. Down the corridor walks Hyde, who’s wearing his work clothes. He comes over to the door, unlocks it and then opens the door. When he opens it, he sees an empty street and grows confused. He steps onto the street, looking to the left and right. The street is empty and a few cars are parked along the road. When Hyde looks to the right, he sees a white van. He turns back to go back inside, but Alice stands there and shuts the door before he can. She’s wearing the brown coat with a blue ribbon tied in a bow around her neck. She turns to Hyde and smiles.]
Alice: [happy] Hey, Lou.
Hyde: [surprised] Alice?
Alice: [happy] You remembered. That’s sweet.
Hyde: How couldn’t I? You wouldn’t stop blowing up my phone!
[Alice points over at the van at the end of the street.]
Alice: How about we get moving?
[Hyde sighs, turning to the van and heading over to it. The back doors open up for him and he enters, Alice closing them behind her once they’re in. Hyde sits down and looks to the side, seeing Marshall staring angrily at him.]
Hyde: So… you must be Witley Barbit-
Marshall: [angry] You took Richard Goldberg’s job at the college.
Hyde: Yeah, so?
Marshall: [angry] He was the Caterpillar. He betrayed us. All of us.

Hyde: [confused] Right… I didn’t know all your names, can I clarify-
Alice: What’s the class you’re teaching, Lou?
Hyde: [confused] Why does i-
[Alice flicks out a knife, pointing it at Hyde who panics and backs further into the van.]
Hyde: [panicking] Okay, photography! I do photography!
[Alice smiles.]
Alice: Good boy.
Marshall: I need you to do a bit of work for me.
Hyde: [worried] I… I don’t want to get involved with whatever the hell you guys-
[Hyde starts to get up but Marshall pushes him back, Alice slowly getting her knife out.]
Alice: [calmly] Lou… buddy… we’ve talked, you’re a good guy. Me and my friend, not so much. So how about…
[Alice takes the knife out, handing it to Marshall.]
Alice: [calmly] You make a decision quickly?
[Hyde looks between the two of them, sighing.]
Hyde: [panicking] Well… when you put it like that…
[Cuts back to Hyde being thrown back into the corridor of his house. He turns back to see Alice. He tries to speak but Alice shushes him.]
Alice: [happy] See ya soon Lou. We’ll talk.
[Alice winks and is surrounded in a pink aura, being consumed by it before vanishing. There’s a small explosion of wind as Hyde looks at the space in surprise.]
Hyde: I… am never getting used to that.
[Hyde turns back around and walks into the house, getting a message on his phone. He opens it up and checks his phone. It’s a message from Witley Barbit.]
Marshall: [text only] Don’t disappoint me.
[Hyde sighs, pocketing the phone. Cuts back to Alice as she appears in the van, Marshall spinning his phone in circles between his fingers. Alice smiles to him.]
Alice: See? This is easy.
Marshall: No… no it’s not.

Alice: [frowning] Oh come on, Grumpy, you’re gonna be like this the whole time?
[Marshall looks at Alice, annoyed.]
Marshall: Ben didn't have to use his power. He could’ve just let everyone live instead of creating another Storm. But he had to let the powers out again: why?
Alice: [confused] Well… he gets emotional and that made him set it off.
Marshall: No, he and Goldberg, they were talking. They knew who we were. Meaning that they knew about our lives.
[Alice sighs, leaning back in the van on the other side to Marshall.]
Marshall: He chose Chesterfield for a reason. I just wanna know what he knew.
Alice: [worried] Y’know… maybe it’s time you told her. About all of this.
Marshall: [forceful] No. She can’t know.
Alice: [worried] Why not?
[Marshall scoffs, looking at Alice in thought.]
Marshall: [forceful] How could she trust me? When we go out and do this?
[Alice moves slightly closer.]
Alice: She’s your wife, Marshall. She’s the only other woman I know who even knows about the Storm and she was bloody supportive through everything that happened to you.
[Marshall shrugs, looking out the window.]
Alice: We aren’t even the bad guys! We’re stopping the bad guys, whatever it takes! She would understand, hon.
[Marshall looks at Alice and sighs.]
Marshall: I’m… gonna go and get some air.
[Alice nods to him. Marshall gets up and moves out the van, closing the door behind him. He rests his head against the door, closing his eyes and thinking. After a few seconds he pulls himself up. He turns around, facing an empty street. He scratches the back of his head and begins to walk away from the van, as it starts to play a muffled version of Mr Blue Sky by ELO.]

Chimera
Eleanor meant the world to Titus. So when an opportunity to bring her murderer to justice appears, Titus jumps on the chance. His quest, however, would mean traversing the dangerous world of Nivandor, a land infested with monsters, night hunters, and corrupt kings–nothing he and his lord, Lady Priscilla, couldn't handle. Their plans change, however, when both of them are dragged into a nightmare realm, a dimension filled with strange and powerful terrors unlike any they've ever faced. Titus's skill as a kinetic mage is put to the ultimate test as he must work with his lord to fight off the increasingly dangerous monsters that hunt them as they hunt down the three remaining Seraph lords sustaining the Nightmare. For only when the final Seraph lord is slain will the Nightmare truly end. --- Happy Holidays! I tried to get a chapter out this month, but there was just too much stuff to do and I got sick. There will also be more stuff to do come the month of December to the point that I don't think I will have a chance to finish the current story arc on a strong note. So, as of today, I will be going on hiatus until the holidays are over. I will hopefully return with the last few chapters of book 2 as well as the DLC chapters to help clarify Titus and Priscilla's powers as well as a look into their lives before the story gets crazy (maybe 6-7 chapters). These chapters are planned to take place in the day between Chapter 1.4 & Chapter 1.5, detailing the day they had before going to Nivandor. How the DLC chapters will be titled is to be decided. The DLC chapters will be posted here free as usual. Really excited to get a break so I can catch up on chapters. Even more excited to be able to start book 3 once the current story arc is finished. Warmly, Daniel --- Disclamer: This story is not a finished product and will be undergoing changes, sometimes significant changes, as the story develops. Think of it as an early access story where nothing is fully set in stone. If I change a part of the story that you really love, I'm sorry, but changing one part of the story will affect the other parts I try to avoid major changes, especially in older chapters, but for the newer ones there will probably be more fine tuning. As for anyone invested in the story who is not happy with the way the story is going, feel free to DM me so I can get feedback. I want to know how you guys feel about the story, what changes I can make, at what point in the story I may have lost you. But until I get specific feedback, I won't know what changes might need to be made. There are about 14 chapters left for Part 2 of Chimera, give or take. I don't have a time frame for when they will be up but know I am chipping away at the chapters as I can. Warm Regards, Daniel --- Cover art credit goes to Brosedesignz, who has an awesome selection of both premade and custom book covers at great prices on her website. She can also be found at thebookcoverdesigner.com, which is where I found my cover.

Making of a Genius [A Progression LitRPG]
What does it take to climb to the top of the academic ladder? Lexus came face to face with his mediocrity the moment he arrived at Cambridge University to study computer science. There was a ceiling that he could not overcome, an intellectual world that was unreachable. But if you give a chicken an eagle's wings, it will fly higher than you could ever imagine. And that was exactly what happened to Lexus: with the help of a system, he could make it big. Schedule:1 chapter per week (every Friday evening at 5:30pm GMT). The weekly schedule is to allow time for research and factual accuracy where required. Author's Note: The story is about a computer science student at university, gradually improving and embarking on the path to become a world-renowned genius-level expert with the help of a system. There'll be a lot of studying and academics, but imagine being the best in your year. Easily. At that point, academics stops being stressful and starts being fun, doesn't it? The initial chapters are heavy on mathematical detail, but I don't expect anyone to actually read through them thoroughly. It's fine to skim them or even skip them, but I hope you try to get a sense of the progress being made, and feel happy for Lexus when something 'clicks' inside his brain :) As the story progresses, later chapters will go into less depth into individual questions, though I aim to remain consistent in terms of scientific accuracy/feasibility. Welcome, and I hope you enjoy the story!
