《The hidden truth》The cave
Advertisement
The next morning I woke up and went into the living room. Aqua said, "Me and Zane have decided that it's a good idea for us to teach you how to fight a little bit better."
I said, "I already know how to fight."
"Yeah, but you have to learn to have faster reflexis, after all you did get stabbed with a knife," Zane replied.
I rolled my eyes and took him down to the ground. He said, "Ok obviously we were wrong. Let's just go to the cave." I nodded and got a couple flashlights and we left. A couple hours later we arrived at the cave.
Aqua said, "Ok I read online that the knife is at the very end of the cave and that it's a really big cave so it's going to take some time before we get to it." Me and Zane agreed and we started to walk further into the cave. A few minutes later I started to hear voices talking to me
I asked, "Did you guys hear that?"
Aqua asked, "Hear what?"
"Ummm.... nothing nevermind," I responded.
Zane said, "Ok, if your sure. Let's just go get the knife so we can leave. This place creeps me out." We started walking again. After a few minutes I heard the voices again telling me that I should just give in and turn on them.
Not thinking I said out loud, "Turn on who?"
Aqua and Zane both looked at me and Aqua asked, "Are you ok?"
I said, "uh...yeah I'm fine sorry. Just thinking out loud." they looked at me for a second and then just kept walking. The voice came back and said your friends you don't need them just give in and join us.

After a few minutes of this voice in my head, I started trying to block it out and ignoring. What's going on? Why am I hearing voices? I must be losing it. I asked, "So you guys don't hear the voices?"
Zane said, "No why would there be voices, it's only me, you, and Aqua here." He paused for a second and then said, "Unless it's true what people say about the cave."
I asked, "What do they say about the cave?"
"That it can make you crazy do something about it like knows what your up to and what your trying to avoid. It almost always wins so if you're actually hearing voices it's not good and we need to leave," Zane replied.
I thought for a second and then said, "umm...no I'm not hearing any voices I was just messing around, besides even if I did we can't leave we have to get the knife to stop all this."
Aqua said, "okay but if you actually start hearing voices let us know now let's go." We started walking again and I begin to start thinking.
I can't tell them that I'm actually hearing voices. We need to get this knife, I just need to not give in. It shouldn't be to hard.

Marrow
Marrow was old... older than me or you. Older than the nation he lived in. And older than anyone he knew. Which is not surprising, because he did not know anyone else. He had been sitting, or perhaps leaning is the more apt expression, in a closet for many, many years, and had done nothing but stare. But eating, or rather chewing, a spider opened up another world to him. A world with a voice that was talking to him - to HIM! Marrow did not get what the voice was saying, but that was secondary at this point. And Marrow started to feel restless. Nuff said. If you like a sometimes quirky skeleton as the main character and want to ride along for its coming of age, or perhaps rather coming of sapience story... give it a shot. It is a litrpg context with skills, levels, heroes and monsters... and a skeleton. Not sure yet how fast the skeleton will level... we'll have to wait and see. As a disclaimer... this is my secondary novel... my main story is ongoing and most of my time is dedicated to that. As such, new chapters will, at first, be rather infrequent and irregular. If things go well, I may shift more attention to the story, but we shall see how things go.

Anti-Hero: Journey of Fear
There is a story where the hero makes friends, completes quests, and saves the world. This is NOT that story. In the VR world of Fate: Experience Acute Realism, the main character cuts his way through both the players and NPCs alike. This story takes a close look at how a true full immersion VR would be played. The setting is an open VR world where the players struggle to survive with a lack of knowledge and the NPCs panic in regards to the Travelers invading their world. The anti-hero of this story is cold and calculating. Sparing no one from his reign of terror he gives into occasional bouts of kindness before he is forced back on the path of blood and tears. For where there is a hero who seeks to bring people together to help the world move forward, there is an anti-hero who brings people together to seize the world for himself. WARNING: This story contains extreme violence, in every single chapter. This story contains references to sex, but no explicit scenes. This story has light to mild swearing. My chapters normally range from 4,000 to 5,000 words. This story does not contain happy endings, middles, or even beginnings.

Dream Theater
Long casted shadows danced in the background, as a man squibbled and jotted words on yellow papers. A mere novelty, remnant and ghost that was left to age away along with the forgotten theater, a man grasped for inspiration to salvage what was left of his soul. Abandoned in the squalid room, Pxan was left hauntedly in the furthest corners of insanity that bubbled in his mind. No one would listen to his plight, denouncing him and claiming his mind was not right. Even though the world left him with nothing, turning their backs to him, he knew the books would never betray him in the same fashion. Faceless pages and books yet to be read ogled puppy eyes, ready to be penned by the madman. “Pxan! Pxan! Over here! To me!” Clamored the unpublished manuscripts. Pxan’s fingers quivered nervously, thoughts of failure flooded his mind. Wanting to surrender to the pressure. “No!” He cried. “I’ve had enough of writing.” Books with eyes all stared at him, begging for the tales to be written. Their pleaful eyes were all that Pxan needed to be moved to writing again. The man sighed and raised his pen again, stroking the first letters of inspiration that bore fruit from his mind. A maddening tale of a policeman, cultists and a violent revenge… -Currently on Hiatus while writing the second volume.The first volume is up. I will take a few days to rewrite a few chapters.

This Book
The author, Edward Faust is aware that “This Book” does not really describe what this book is about. We shall pretend that it is a meta artistic choice but the reality is that Mr. Faust is bad at coming up with titles, and since starting This Book back in 2015 as a NaNoWriMo project he could never come up with a good one. This Book’s genre is YA Supernatural, but that’s only as helpful as any genre tag (IE: not very) so I shall describe it further. This Book is primarily about reincarnation, but it also features mythical creatures such as angels (known here as Seraphs), demons, Byzantines, as well as homeschoolers. Two mythical homeschoolers in fact make up the main characters of this work, a pair of siblings named Grayson and Kish. They live in metro Atlanta in the year 2019 AD with their Aunt. On one particular day they are plunged into a rabbit hole of spiritual and metaphysical politics by the arrival of a mysterious one-eyed Green haired woman and strange humanoid creatures into their lives. That is where the story begins. Yes. This book can also be found at https://thisbook.home.blog/
