《Boundless [COMPLETED]》XX
Advertisement
The sun rays penetrated through my eyelids making me groan and raise my arm up to block out the sun. I could hear people whispering which made me force my eyes to open as panic ran through my veins.
Men in black suits.
Then, everything seemed to dawn upon me and I remembered last night's events. I wasn't caught!
I stood up, making them cautiously watch my every move before I sped out of there and tried to find an escape.
What was I thinking when I came here yesterday?
However, I was not fast enough and two of the men caught me within seconds.
"What's going on here?" asked a deep masculine voice. I fidgeted in my place as I tried to pull my arms away from the 2 men holding me.
"Sir, we found this...lady sleeping in one of the corners here. She tried to run away as soon as we saw her," said one of the men.
Damian's emerald green eyes suddenly met mine and made me freeze in my place.
"Why are you here?" he asked trying to maintain his cool.
"I-I.." I tried my best to let the words come out of my mouth but to no avail. I had no idea why I ended up here. Why was this the first place that came to mind?
He sighed, his patience clearly running out.
"Either you answer or I'm calling the cops for trespassing."
Rude.
"I came here to tell you everything you wanted to know," I finally settled on saying. I don't know what I was thinking. Why was this the first excuse that came to mind?
His face contorted to confusion for a second before it went back to being void of emotions.
"I thought there was no more to the story?"

"I lied. I don't think that's anything new though," I grumbled the last part.
It was then where he looked at my current state and realized how distorted I looked. My legs were swollen from all the running that I had done yesterday and my hair was disheveled in more ways than not.
"Are you okay?" at least he had the heart to wonder about my wellbeing. No, I was not okay. I wanted to scream at him and ask him what my state clearly shows but I held back my tongue. He didn't have anything to do with this so why would I be mad at him?
I nodded.
"I'm fine. We need to talk."
He did nothing but stare at me for the first few seconds before he gave in.
"We do," he said as he strode off and I wasted no time in following after him.

Adventures of the Goldthirst Company
Get the quest, kill the monsters, grab the loot, don't die. How hard can adventuring be? When the party is a fashionista wizard who'd rather stare at her reflection than dirty herself with actual combat, a thief that picks locks by ripping them apart, a paladin trying to do the right thing, and an archer that's better at talking to plants than people, then even a simple quest can prove a challenge. Hired for a variety of tasks, from retreiving the legendary Dragon's Veil to bodyguarding the wealthy, thwarting apocalyptic prophecies, or uncovering not-so-abandoned elven ruins, the problems in their way may well prove their undoing; lonesome medusas, sticky-fingered psychopomps, agressively passive golems and fearsomely violent geography stand in their way, as well as the minor issue of simply not actually trusting, or even liking, each other! Releases twice weekly, generally Tuesday and Friday (Art by Sin Soppitt)

Heroes Die First
It was after World War Two ended; rumors spread of people wielding amazing powers or mutating into horrifying monsters. Seventy years later, heroes and villains dominate the news and battle in the streets, discrimination drives mutants into the criminal lifestyle, and the governments of the world are struggling to handle the rapidly shifting paradigm. Maxmillian Grants, like any sixteen year old boy, wants to be a hero and he has a secret: he has the power to do it! Except, when he actually looks into the risks and the rewards he discovers that being a hero is not really worth it. Being a villain, on the other hand, certainly pays well. If you don't mind risking being sent to prison and being hunted by heroes and other villains. Max, not being an idiot, does mind both of those things. Instead of being a hero or being a villain, Max decides to take the third option, to be a vigilante! His plan? To hit the criminals in the gut and run off with their money, making the world a bit brighter at the same time by taking down the bad guys. But how long can he actually manage alone? Can he really navigate through the dangerous world of supers and capes without declaring for either heroes or villains? Or will he be sucked into the web of plots and drama that is the life of those with superpowers? (Cover photo by Sebastiaan Stam, downloaded from Unsplash)
