Advertisement
[Sissel and Tracey are on Goldberg’s laptop, stood outside of Hyde’s office. From around the corner, Chelsea and Liv appear to Tracey’s notice.]
Tracey: Head’s up.
[Sissel turns to see them heading over.]
Sissel: [quietly] H-hey.
Chelsea: Hey.
[Liv just nods. Sissel stills quickly shushes the both of them, Tracey stepping back.]
Chelsea: [quietly, confused] Okay, why?
Sissel: [quietly] Because there is a teacher in the room!
Liv: [quietly, confused] So?
Sissel: [quietly] So this laptop belonged to Goldberg and I’d prefer to not have someone thinking we killed him and stole his things!
[Chelsea and Liv look to each other.]
Chelsea: [quietly] Okay, that’s fair. Hand it over.
[Sissel starts to hand over the laptop as a loud thud is heard from inside the office. They all look about each other as it starts getting loud in the office. Chelsea quickly takes the laptop with Sissel's notebook underneath it.]
Chelsea: [quietly] I’ll take this to the team, you guys deal with… that.
[Chelsea quickly runs away with the laptop. Both Liv and Sissel perk up and panic slightly, Tracey noticing.]
Sissel: [quietly, over Liv] Wha- hey! Chelsea! Come on, Chelsea!
Liv: [quietly, over Sissel] Chelsea, don’t just run off! We’re not just… oh, you bitch.
[There’s another thud against the door and the two turn to it. They both sigh and head over, putting their heads on the door while facing each other. Tracey walks over, frowning.]
Tracey: [worried] What’s going on?
[Sissel shushes Tracey.]
Liv: [quietly] I didn’t say anything!
Sissel: [quietly] Not you.
Liv: [quietly] Who then?
[Sissel sighs.]
Tracey: [worried] You can tell her. Why aren’t you telling her?
[Sissel shushes again. Liv groans and puts her head to the door.]
Tracey: Um… I’m going to go in, see what he’s saying. You just say what I’m saying.

[Sissel nods as Tracey moves through the wall to more loud noises.]
Liv: [annoyed] Just be honest, what’s wrong with you?
Sissel: What?
Liv: [annoyed] You’re acting weird. Not sad, just wrong.
Sissel: [annoyed] Is there not a better time for this?
Liv: [annoyed] I don’t know, but I’d prefer you talk to a real person about this.
Sissel: [annoyed] Seriously, you sound nuts.
Liv: [annoyed] I’m trying to help you.
Sissel: Wait, shush.
Liv: [annoyed] If you tell me-
Sissel: [angry] Liv, seriously, shut it!
[Liv goes quiet, frowning. Tracey speaks up.]
Tracey: [through wall] Um… someone called Witley Barbit.
Sissel: Name is Witley Barbit.
Tracey: [through wall] Um… he’s kinda rambling, something about photography and running with scissors.
Sissel: [confused] Um… he’s mainly rambling.
Liv: [annoyed, confused] How the hell do you get a name and nothing else?
[Tracey pulls her head through the door.]
Tracey: [worried] Okay, so… I think he’s going to kill you. Run please!
[Sissel quickly grabs Liv and pulled her away, running.]
Liv: [annoyed] H-hey!
Sissel: [annoyed] Oh, shut up!
[They quickly turn the corner towards the staircase.]
Liv: Why are we running?
Sissel: Hyde is going to kill us!
Liv: Oh… That’s fair.
[The two quickly make it to the bottom of the staircase. Sissel lets go of Liv and runs in the opposite direction, Liv noticing and stopping in her place.]
Liv: [yelling] Hey! Where you going?
[Sissel turns back down the corridor, staring at Liv.]
Sissel: I need to make a plan. I need to go.
Liv: [angry] Don’t just run away after telling me someone wants to kill us again!
[Tracey’s head pulls down through the floor, looking at Sissel.]
Tracey: [worried] Again?!
Sissel: [angry] Look, I can’t explain, I just need to go! Okay?
[Liv groans.]
Liv: [angry] When you get back, you tell me what is going on.
Sissel: [angry] Fine!
[Sissel turns and runs off, taking a corner. Liv groans and walks away down the corridor, taking out her phone and texting Velma.]
Liv: [text only] Something’s wrong. He won’t tell me.
[She hesitates with the next message, then groans.]
Liv: [text only] Can we talk later? It’s important.
[She waits a few seconds, then getting a response.]
Velma: [text only] Okay. We can talk whenever you want.
[She nods and pockets her phone.]

Candor: The Forgotten House
*** Please read note below *** As a 16-year-old mage from a powerful family, Jayce Candor had known from a young age what his future would hold. As the fourth son in his family the possibility of him becoming the heir to the household was very small. But, with his talent as a mage, his potential accomplishments in the military could lead to titles of nobility and political power. However, on what would otherwise be an unremarkable night, everything he had ever known, the only people he ever cared for, and all of the plans for his future were destroyed. House Candor, one of the six great houses that helped build the Eldoran Empire had been erased from history. By imperial decree, all those bearing the name Candor were hunted down and executed as traitors of the Empire. With no home, no family, and only death waiting for him, Jayce decided to escape north to the uncharted Northern Territories to begin a new life. Forced into situations he was never prepared for and trying to cope with his past, Jayce tries to find safety in a place spoken about only in legends. There for the first time, he will make true friends and find people he will come to see as family. He will encounter strong enemies, build powerful alliances, and become a person his ancestors would be proud of. But surrounded by creatures he thought only existed in tales and pressed by the Empire’s constant expansion, Jayce’s safety may be only an illusion. To survive a world fraught with danger Jayce will need to grow stronger with each new experience and rebuild his once forgotten house. ********************************************************************** Note: The story starts slow. Although there is more action as the story progresses, there is a fair amount of introspection and character introduction in the first 30 chapters. Jayce is the main character, however, other characters play a large role and the story is seen through multiple POV's. This is a draft, it is not a finished work. This is not a story that focuses on an OP MC who beats up on weaklings. At times there can be a fair amount of internal monologue. Some of that may be edited out when I rewrite the story. I decided to keep it in the draft because I think it is better to have too much material rather than too little when I edit. Constructive criticism is appreciated as it helps in the editing and rewriting process. Check out my other story Shattered Mind here

the hero, the villain,and the profiteer
...*ahem*.... I have been on the site for a while and I have wanted to make my own piece of literature for this site so I'm going to do it here is what I will be making as my first one. Honestly the thought just popped into my head yesterday I rather enjoy several different kinds of stories on the site, so I found a way to do a little bit of each. I myself am a high-functioning autistic but that's only shows in my writing for the most part they look will be the occasional grammar mistake and missing apostrophes and periods I'm also using a speech to text feature on my computer that will occasionally slip up. Now for the synopsis of the story: your standard reincarnation seventh hero type deal but there is a little..... Slip up: parts of the person fractals creating several people;; A great-hearted hero, a savvy traveling merchant, and a sadist curious dungeon Lord. Critiques and people reading this is appreciated, I mostly just doing this for fun. And because this is somewhat important for some reason the cover art is not made by me I just got it from search engine. It also may change over time. im mostly following the dl becouse...i don't know.
