《How Will This Work?》Chapter 4
Advertisement
Tears silently dripped down my face. I sobbed and stared at my loved one in front of me. All were six feet under. I had no loved ones left.
Sally Jackson was my mom, she died from Smelly Gabe. Annabeth was next in the line, my wise girl was taken from me by an armed robbery. She save many live that day when she wrestled the gun away from the robber. (All down the row of head stones I walked. Thaila, Nico, Kate, Connor, Travis, Luke, Will, Charles B., Selina, and the rest of them all taken from me by the same terror attack. I fall to my knees and cry my heart out, when there are no tears left I silently shake.
I'm still shaking when a dog hybrid approaches me,"Where's you dom, little kitty?" He sneers at me. I ignore him and keep silently crying, "Hey! I'm talkn' to you," he tried to grab my hair. Key word tried. I had him pinned to the ground with a knife at his throat before he could even reach out. "Do you wish to continue along this course of action?" I ask in a deadly whisper. He frantically shook his head no, not trusting himself to speak. "Good. Now go away so I can continue to morn." I let him go, he scrambled up, I went back to silently staring at the graves. As he started to walk was his ego coming back, he started mumbling something about stupid and subs. Percy was content with just letting him go, but then he comes back.
No not walking back... flying back.....French m a sucker punch in the jaw.... from Sargent Nico. Percy looks up with a tear streaked face, Nico was fuming. He starts walking towards the downed dom a small soft voice stops him,"Stop this Nico, it ok." But that's not what makes Him freeze what Percy says next does.

Percy whispers under his breath, makes him freeze and his heart shatter,"I'm not worth this. I'm just a stupid sub. Good for nothing." He has tears in his eyes and I realized just how broken this hero on the wrong side of the law is. I start walks no towards him, he looks up then his eyes widen, his smell becomes sour, he's scared. I realized with wide eyes. He starts saying,"nononononononononono, this can't be happening!" He starts crawling backwards, he looking at something behind me. I look back an elephant of a man is walking towards us, with two equally ugly and disgusting people with him.
He leers at Percy,"So your back in New York, Slut." He looks at me,"so you found someone else interested in your services, great, whore. Just remember when you think you found love, they are just using you, they toss you out soon." Percy in now backed all the way up against a woman named Sally Jackson's head stone." The disgusting creature kept walking towards him. I was frozen in place. The ugly mistake of God whispered something in Percy's ear. Percy manner changer instantly, his eyes become rock hard fury. He comes up swinging. In like five seconds all of the men are on the ground. Percy raises a dagger, I tackle him. "Percy, we can't kill them," I say trading to calm him down,"Yes we can he killed everyone!" Percy yelled, struggling. I keep him pinned and called for back up. I left them out side the gates when I saw Percy. They come running in I ordered one of them to each knocked out man, to hand cuff them and the other four to help me keep Percy pinned. Good God he is strong.

They looked at me surprised that I would need help pinning him. The started to stroll over. Let's just say they weren't fast enough. Percy flipped me off, I face planted. The back up stared at him in shock. He all of a sudden had a new knife in his hand. The first on to react was the guard behind the elephant that had whispered to Percy he dropped, the unconscious man and tacked Percy around the middle, as he was giving a war cry about to stab one of the men in the heart. The other reacted quickly after that. A new person picked up the dropped unconscious man the others all grabbed on to one of his limbs and held on for dear life. I sat on his chest and searched him for weapons. He still struggled, hiding and cursing. Tears still streaming down his face. I took out a shot filled with sedatives and jabbed it into his leg, this should do it, this is strong enough to knock an elephant out for two hours. He slowly stops struggling. Speaking of elephants, who were they? We started loading them into the government car we can here in. All of a sudden I hear a screamed curse. I whip around just to see Percy yet again lunging, with a knife, towards one of the unconscious men. I tackle him, and curse I thought I had taken all of them, how in the world did he get another. I hog tie him, cuff his hands and ankles. He's still struggling! "
I put a guard on one side of him and me on the other. I called in another car it was overwhelmingly obvious Percy can't be with the men. I wonder why? The other car arrives and we load the three men in with two guards into the car. Three guards still held Percy, God damn it he's still trying to kill them. Time to try something new,"Percy, stop fighting." I said in my strongest dominant voiceit was so strong every on for a block froze except Percy.
All of a sudden I was on my back, Percy holding his legendary daggers on my neck and poised above my heart."Do that again. I dare you." He snarled quietly. I held my hand up in surrender. I was frozen on the outside but on the inside part of me was screaming 'HOW DID HE RESIST?!?!" Another part of me was growling in frustration, and yet another part of me gave Percy points. He whispered,"I thought you were different. Trying to make me stop against my free will is not what I expected from you, Sargent," ouch that stung. He stood up, and started to walk away,"Where are you going?" I ask desperately. "Away" he answers vaguely. "When will you be back?" I ask worried. "In a long time, maybe never. My trust was betrayed. This will take a while." I stared disbelieving at his back. He just kept walking hands in pockets, shoulders slumped, head down. He popped in ear buds, and didn't look back as he disappeared into the crowd. 'What have I done?!?!'

Arnar the Dungeon
Arnar is a dungeon core. Everybody knows dungeons are evil, man-eating entities hell-bent on killing and absorbing whatever wanders inside their depths. The problem is no one ever told him that. Well, the truth is no one ever told him anything and he refused powers-that-be when they tried to make him into the proper dungeon. That should teach them not resurrect people into dungeon cores. Now it is too late. He has a perfect plan to become the best dungeon on the continent and nothing will stand in his way. Especially something called common sense. Disclaimer of sorts: I am non-native English writer that used to write mostly for himself. After my last computer decided to die on me taking all my works with it I lost the desire to write for quite a long time. This is my attempt to go find motivation to write again as this was my favourite hobby. The idea is to be held accountable. As for being non-native, I don't believe that should be a major issue as I feel my proficiency in English to be sufficient enough to not be too much of the distraction. That said, be forewarned that the rules governing punctuation are beyond my grasp. All I can do is try not to completely suck at that. As mentioned this is an attempt to motivate me to write again so any message, encouragement or constructive criticism will go long way. The cover was created with the help of http://fantasynamegenerators.com/emblem-creator.php I hope you will enjoy my story.

Ph. D. In Sorcery
Follow Anastasia, the unlucky physicist turned wizard, as her reality gets turned upside down and she is plunged into a world of gods, magic, swords, and adventure. Short and sweet description, anything more would be a spoiler and I detest those. Now, what you can expect from reading: This is my first time writing, or better said allowing someone else to read that mess so don’t raise your expectations too much. Still, I will try to keep the story flowing, while also devoting as much time as I can to editing. In my opinion, the story is written at a faster pace than normal with time skips here and there. I will do my best to not allow the faster pace to ruin the story by using those time skips to raise the skill of the main character. I am mainly looking for feedback while I test myself in new and unexplored waters. I did put a lot of thought into worldbuilding and the magic system, it is something that has been mulling inside my head for years before I sat down to write anything down. First and foremost I am an engineer and not a writer. I will try to do my utmost to make the world logical and consistent, but sometimes I might not express that in a way that’s clearly understood. I have a rough outline with several possible endings, but the story will change and evolve as I do. But in case I have to stop for whatever reason, the story will get an ending. It will be done even if I have to send coded messages from a bunker. I am a big fan of the Dresden Files so you can be certain that everything mentioned will in most cases be used, with a few red herrings sprinkled in the mix. But that also means I will enjoy putting the main character through the meat grinder while I eat popcorn and laugh from my evil lair. Physics, and to be more precise electromagnetism, quantum field theory, general and special relativity are very interesting topics for me that I research in my spare time. That means that the premise of the story will be using that research to bring logic to magic. Stupid I know, magic is magic, but to me, there is no reason why there shouldn’t be a concrete set of rules there. But it is still magic and that allows me to play with some things that shouldn’t normally be possible. I will focus on evolving the main character and having her react as anyone normal would, from my perspective. There will be scenes of battle, gore, and sexy times, but I will not go into too many details, counting on your imagination to fill the gaps. There will be plenty of combat, even battles ranging from a few dozen, a hundred, and thousands of participants. I could go on but there isn’t much to say that would convince anyone to read, either you thought the title was cool or you liked the poster. Or not, but after several days in photoshop, that’s the best I could do. And the title was originally Sorceress with a Ph.D. The new one makes a little less sense but I like the ring of it more for some reason. I just hope someone enjoys what I write as much as I do. In the end that is the reason, I am doing this, because I enjoy putting my thoughts on paper and seeing the outcome. Credit for the art: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/e0o8nw
