《Grasping》Chapter 6: SCP-158
Advertisement
Magnus exits the car and joins his moms who were waiting for him. Magnus looked at the relatively normal building. Normal to the regular eye of course. In his eyes, this building looked even more fortified than his new home.
" Mom, what do you work as again?"
May looked at me with a face of surprise, which quickly changed into a smile.
" I work as a scientist dear."
With that, they walked into the building and into a room named project 158. Inside, a man waited for us.
" This is Mister Keith James, he will be showing us how this robotic arm works."
" Hello, mister Keith," Said, Karrie. Magnus parroted her. Then, he stared at the arm. It was a large mechanical arm, similar to one that one might find in an automotive factory, although the end attachment is unusually shaped, resembling a pointed tridactyl claw. The entire thing had a faint glow to his eyes. Not wanting to leave things to chance, he used his limited omniscience on Keith. He found that the man did not have a manual on him but had an interesting badge in his pocket. One that had a symbol that Magnus recognised.
" The Foundation is real?" He mumbled.
Nearly immediately, his soul was attacked. Magnus snapped out of his daze and found that the arm had extracted a tiny bit of his soul's energy. He realised that he was looking at SCP-158. He closed his eyes and let himself collapse to pretend that his soul was extracted.
" I can't believe we did this to a kid." - May
" What? No! We removed a ghost that was possessing his corpse." - Karrie
Magnus decided to stop breathing and stop his heart.
" I'll check if he is dead now. I have combat training. I should be able to handle the kid if he is still alive and is hostile," - Keith

" No! Don't get close to him. Did you not see the report? He considers himself a god. Doctor Jack Smith even questioned SCP-343 about this. He said that SCP-343 gave a positive answer about his remark." - Karrie
Magnus could hear them walking towards the door after Karrie said that.
' SCP-343... he is the one nicknamed "God".'
With that, he opened his eyes and slowly flew into an upright position.
" H~e~y~ Don't go just yet."
Using his energy manipulation he prevented Keith from opening the door.
" Stay and talk to me first."

Re:volutionist
I died and then received an offer to be reincarnated in a Fantasy World.The problem is - I'm not exactly gonna be a ""hero"" of that world, this wasn't really an offer to begin with, and that strange shapeless black entity who gave me that ""offer"" wasn't really trustworthy... or sane. Now I am alone in the world that wants me dead. The world I am supposed to ruin as a part of a game I don't understand. I don't even know who plays that game... but it looks like it's a game in which everyone - from pawns to players - is trying to cheat.**********Mature Content Warning - foul language, gore (in the future), potential sex scenes (in the future).

I became a criminal, a musician, traveled through time, battled beings that shouldn’t exist and took part in a high stakes tournament. But that’s not the half of it! My editor says this blurb thing should be around 200 hundred words, but why don’t you just go ahead and buy the book to get the full story? “God does not play dice with the universe.” -Einstein (Sort of) “However, it’s entirely possible he’s using Me as his personal sitcom.” -Some Guy

Obstinate Han
A power progression fantasy with a main character who trains constantly but who lacks purpose, direction, and motivation. The world he lives in, however, is not a peaceful one. As obstinate as Han can be, with all of humanity edging slowly towards annihilation, will he truly be able to avoid becoming entangled in the affairs of the deities fighting over his new universe? This story is a slow burn rather than a fast paced action/adventure, and is centered around the perspective of a main character who struggles with depression, apathy, anhedonia, and asociality. This world was doomed well before he arrived, and he knows it. Rather than following the traditional hero model, he just wants to train for its own sake, and to scrape out occasional moments of happiness in a ruined and dying world.
