"It's really difficult to just watch them all die... Battery boy, energetic helpful but"
"Nervous nervous nervous nervous nervous!!!" Jack ran around in his room trying to calm down.
"Hel- you look nervous" Thunder looked at him.
"Oh ? You noticed ?"jack looked confused but then looked around seeing that he walked on every single part of the room including the ceiling, walls and furniture.
"It's hard not to. Anyway no need for you to worry if you lose you have two more chances!" Thunder walked away.
"Thanks th- wait...What did he mean by two chances"he sat down curious about it "maybe " before he could think of something jack was teleported into the middle of the arena, he looked in front of him seeing his opponent L.
L looked slightly younger than Jack , he was shorter than him and had electric blue eyes and hair. Something was attached to his back with many Wires connected to his armor.
Jack looked at his hands and panicked seeing that they forgot to give him a weapon.
"What to do what to do ?" He looked at the giant screen which was counting down. He had thirty seconds to get ready.
Jack took a deep breath and tried to calm down.
'Ugh don't be nervous ! You're going to be ok !' The voice in his head complained and tried to make Jack slap himself.
"You're not the one who is going to die!" Jack tried to glare but found no one to glare on.
"Three two one FIGHT!!!" He turned around and saw L rushing on him with great speed.
Jack looked at him terrified for a few seconds then dodged his attack making L hit the wall instead.
Jack sighed and kept dodging L's electric attacks. It was either his metal gloves filled with electricity or trying to hit him with an electric bullet.

L growled and hit the ground sending a charge through it.
Jack jumped and started running on the walls , the crowd watched amazed and cheered for him.
Then he got a chance L's hands were both stuck in ground , Jack ran fast to him them grabbed the biggest wire and pulled it off.
"No!" L screamed as his own power damaged him, he was being electrocuted to death.
Finally his heart stopped and he died.
Jack looked up at the screen seeing the following.
Jack killer won !
He smiled proudly But his smiled turned to a frown when he saw what happened next.
L (battery boy) lost! chances left:none.
L's body was dragged away and thrown in a dark pit.
The closest door to jack opened,so he went outside it.
"Hey good job buddy !" Thunder smiled at him.
"Why didn't you tell me ?!" He tried punching him but Thunder grabbed his fist.
"Tell you what ?" Thunder asked.
"That this is a life or death game!" He growled and tried punching him with the other hand, but same thing happened.
"Because you already were nervous and if I told you . You wouldn't have done that!"
"Exactly!" Jack ran away trying not to cry.
"Should I get him ?" The boy with the scythe asked. He was standing near thunder.
"No give him sometime to calm down. We all went through this phase.." thunder sighed.
Jack ran away tearing up a little "I can't believe it. I escaped here to not be a killer but I ended up being one" he bumped into a girl.
"Hey! Watch where you're going!" The girl said and glared at him, she had beautiful green eyes,black hair, slim body and artificial hands, they were both made out of metal and the fingers were more like claws.

"Oh I'm really sorry" he looked at her eyes widening seeing her hands.
"What are you staring it ?!"she huffed and looked offended.
"No! It's the first time I see something like this!" He tried not to make it worse.
"Good ! And you better not comment about it or it will be the last thing you see!" She threw him away.
"Ow !" Jack hit the stone wall and looked at it "Huh ?" He saw some writings on the wall.
He wiped away the dust and tried to read it but the hand writing was horrible.
"This hand writing"he gasped remembering something.
Dad!
Yeah son ?
What are you writing ?
I'm trying to get a new job.
A new job why ?
Because I don't really like my job now.
Oh...Can I see please please please ?
Sure thing here.
Dad this is alien language!
Huh ?
Here let me write it anything will be better than yours!
He smiled as he wiped away his tears and smiling regaining hope "I will find you dad...Even if I have to fight all day and night, I will..."
"But his battery dies fast"

Leftover Apocalypse
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] This is a story about the newly-adult Calliope Smith having a terrible day that ends in her getting mysteriously teleported from Phoenix, Arizona to a fantasy world where her life is in constant danger. She considers this an upgrade. Someone evil is looking for her, and she doesn't know why. Someone who seems to know a lot about her has promised they'll help her, but she doesn't know who they are. All that matters to Callie is that magic is real and one way or another she's going to learn it. The end of the world is coming up, sure, but Callie won't need to worry about that. In fact, by the time she even finds out about it one of the doomsday devices will already be destroyed, and the authorities will be well on the way to dealing with the other one. It's fine. Everything will be smooth sailing. Almost certainly. Probably. Chapters are usually about 2500-3500 words, and the goal is to post 2-3 per week but I sometimes get busy or have some writers block. It's your standard portal fantasy / Isekai premise, but unlike some the main character's time on Earth and how she got pulled into another world will (eventually) be explored. Some slight GameLit-feeling stuff later, no menus or level-ups but there's something suspiciously like a skill tree when the magic system gets going. No number crunching, and while the main character will get to do some silly stuff she won't be a god like in some fics (and will in fact spend a lot of time being badly outclassed by her enemies). Some reader interaction, ranging from adding to the worldbuilding to occasionally making big important decisions about skill progression. Please note that the main character is flawed and impulsive, and will make some stupid decisions. That's part of the story, but I get that it's not for everyone. Trigger Warnings: Foster care system references, crappy parenting. Some mental health adjacent stuff, specifically the main character has some issues where she experiences varying levels of empathy and emotional vulnerability depending on the day (it's complicated and not meant to portray any real-world conditions). Occasional violence including mention of death and grievous bodily harm, but no detailed descriptions of gore.

The Hand That Guides
The rust colored lands of Osnein are rich with artifacts and old-world technologies highly valued by the various empires and kingdoms inhabiting this distant world. Though many individuals make a living off what they can scavenge from ruins above ground, the true wealth lies beneath them in a iron labrynth known to all as 'The Network'. Whether it is in the pursuit of knowledge, artifacts of power or immeasurable wealth they all risk their lives in an effort to create a better future for themselves. However, entrances to The Network are far and few and rarely explored as metallic entities known as the Jötnar, guard its very depths. In order to defend themselves against such threats, humanity employs the use of Seidr, also known as sorcery. It is the foundation in which gives power to the incantations invoked from the realms beyond the veil... and through the blessing of 'Ljoss' bestowed upon humanity by the Goddess Oracle, the time may yet come for humanity to claim The Network for themselves... Yet wandering this vast region, with no place to call home, exists a curious individual by the name of Grit. Incapable of Seidr, he possesses a lineage mostly forgotten that he seeks to better understand. The fate that awaits him is likely one he never imagined for himself as he journeys to unravel the secrets of this world. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Disclaimer: This story may contain gore and use of profanity.
