BANG!
"You know, bring able to explain why you brought something like that right to us might make us a little less upset about this mess we're all stuck in now." Sentenza ranted as he sprinted as fast as his legs would take him. All while firing his gun back at the monster that was chasing them.
"Ba, ba, ba," Nugget responded in an obviously mocking tone.
"IIIIII'mmmm nnnnooottt uuupppssseeettt," Bakade said.
"I'm just happy she's back!" Pockets cheered as she sped forward on a tiny tricycle.
Ding Ding
Pockets punctuated her statement by ringing her bike's bell.
THUMP. SSSKKKKRRR.
THUMP. SSSKKKKRRR.
Behind them, the monstrosity pursued them. It's hands desperately grabbed at anything the could so they could drag their grotesque form forward. Its hollow eyes stared forward as its jaw hung open and loose.
"We should fight it off," Trizel finally said. "We have already lost too much ground."
"How did your last fight go?" Sentenza asked as he reloaded his pistol.
"That was different," Trizel snapped. "The area was disadvantageous. I was fighting on a large. On solid ground, it would have been different."
"Gggguuuuuyyyyyssss," Bakade groaned, "Ccccaaannnn yyyyooouuu jjjjuuuussssttt nnnnooootttt?"
"I'm just trying to be realistic," Sentenza complained.
"No, you are just underestimating my abilities!" Huffed Trizel.
"Pretty hard to underestimare something so mediocre," Sentenza shot back.
"Ggggggguuuuyyyyysssss!" Bakade snarled with the fury of a forest fire.
Sentenza let out a frustrated huff before he fired back at the monster again.
Trizel's face was almost bright red as he crushed his teeth against each other. "I grabbed my destiny by my own two hands," he whispered through his teeth. "I did the impossible. I defeated the status quo and changed the world itself."

Trizel's voice started to rise in volume. "I set myself against gods and devils. I stood toe to toe with the supposed creators and forced them to give in to me."
"Wwwwhhhaaattt aaarrreee yyyoouuu..." Bakade started to say, before Trizel cut her off.
Trizel planted his right foot and turned around with fury in his eyes. "I am king of the Skyborne isles! Savior of humanity, and proof that fate holds no power over those with a strong enough will. I WILL NOT BE STOPPED HERE BY THE LIKES OF YOU!"
"Hhrrrraaaaagggghhhh!!!" Trizel let out a roar as he held his fists up and let the beast slam against him.
"Idiot," Sentenza sneered under his breath.

The Painter: A fantasy psych thriller and epic
*** June 21th Update ***- New chapters are being posted! I haven't figured out a schedule yet, but stay tuned!- Thank you to everyone who has read and reviewed, I'm happy to say The Painter is in the top 200 best-rated fictions. - Readers of The Painter have suggested reading through Chapter 6 before making a decision on this book.- The story takes place in the Lootverse, but you don't need a canonical understanding to appreciate the storyFinally, a warning or reader beware: This is not an action novel (despite the coming fight scene) but a slow-burn psychological thriller of sorts. For a time, the Painter's life was simple. He lived in the small town of Kinon (called Kinney by locals) with his wife, Kahriah and his son, Thesdon. The story begins with him alone and unable to travel more than a few hundred miles from his home. For 5 years he tried to chart his prison until one day a letter appears with a mysterious commission that will see him test his condition and his boundary. Set roughly 50 years before the impending end of days (from Loot canon), The Painter is a story about loss, grit, and exploration of a seemingly normal man in a world of magic and monsters. The Painter will follow the man on his adventure to restore his family, uncover his commissioners and discover the nature of his condition. Loot is the decentralized, global, community built fantasy world based on Dom Hoffman's art/tech experiment: Loot. Fun fact: The cover of our book is painted by the artist, who the MC is loosely based on and the same person painting the Banners (digitally) IRL for an art/worldbuilding project.

Inverted: A Dark Isekai Fantasy Novel
A desolate city, a frozen ruin, a relic of the past, were all appropriate descriptions of the place Liam found himself. Where was he? How did he get here? And why was he here? If he wanted answers, his only option was to survive. But how? With no distinct skills, the only thing that set him apart was his bitter past, which had shaped him into the cold, pessimistic and distrustful person he was. ‘So,’ Liam thought, ‘it isn’t any different.’ Starting with nothing wasn’t new for him, and as before, he would forge ahead into this unfamiliar land of abnormalities, monsters, and magic. Release Schedule (Changed): Haitus A general note: This is my first time writing anything (outside of academic papers). So, there are many things I’m learning and working on improving as the progresses.

Bleached Nightmare
500 years into the future, technological progress has stagnated. Wracked by a series of problems like climate change, lack of resources and the innate human lust for war, the geopolitical landscape of planet Earth is radically different, and quality of life is far from what it was in the past. While technical development and research into realistically feasible space travel has made leaps and bounds, this has come at the cost of a world that is reeling from centuries of technical stagnation in other aspects of life. The establishment of a mining colony on Mars has led to the discovery of a new, rare material called sarinium; though it is extremely tensile and durable, it has a very low melting point. The discovery of this metal leads to large mechanical infantry- dubbed 'Spirit Striders', they are six to ten meters tall and as famed for the pride they provide a nation as they are a lethally mobile heavy weapons platform. The story follows the character of Marilin, who must both figure the enigma that is her past, and what this means for her allegiances in the future. Despite her genetically physical frailty, she seeks to gain power through a vessel that will channel her wish to change the world- the Spirit Strider. --- I hope you all enjoy my work. This is a story that I began writing over four years ago in my beginning years of high school, and have cast aside unfinished in the past two years. Though it is not up to my current standards, I hope you all may find some enjoyment in it. Happy reading.
