《Tales of the Underground - The Game》Chapter 8
Advertisement
Like the others, Emilia Frye had escaped into one of the corridors. She had killed her light and remained as still as possible, while listening. Indeed there were sounds of unclear origin, far away.
But there was something else, somewhere near her. The muffled sound of something knocking against wood. Carefully Frye made a few steps into the direction from where she presumed the origin of that noise came. The sounds where getting louder and now she clearly heard how something or rather someone was knocking against the inside of one of the boxes.
"Hello?", she whispered. "Who's there?"
No answer. Maybe she was too far away. Perhaps the hammering was too loud. The person inside the medium sized box kept banging against it, trying to escape. Frye kneeled down next to the box and examined it. The lid was secured with a lock, but the
metal reinforcements looked worn out. Carefully she dug her fingers into the gap between box and lid. Then, in the same rhythm as the prisoner, she started pulling. The person inside seemed to have noticed her, because now he or she used more force.
Suddenly, with a loud noise, the lid sprang open and Anna Crissly fell out.
"Anna! What happened to you?", Frye whispered.
"I don't know. I just woke up in there. Are we dead?"
"Not yet. Let's go, we have to hide somewhere."
With as little light as possible, the two women followed another labyrinth, without any clear goal. But then by chance or fate they suddenly found themselves in front of another stuffed corpse, holding a key.
"Anna, watch your back. We don't want you to get kidnapped again."
"I don't see anything. Can we turn the light on?"
"No." Frye grabbed the key and turned to Crissly. "Let's get out of here."
Anna looked at her with a strange expression on her face. Then her eyes wandered to something behind Frye.
"Did...did that body just move?"

Superior Era
How would you react if you found yourself unable to sleep? Not just for one day, or two days, or even three days, but a more permanent time span, like the rest of your life? That’s exactly the predicament Dario finds himself in and he’s thoroughly vexed by it. After all, what sort of sane person would want to miss out on sleep? A madman, that's who. It’s especially worrying considering how he lives in a world filled with fantastical monsters, deadly beasts, and 'Superiors' supposedly protecting the interests of humanity. Sleep is quite the necessity under those circumstances. Life is tough for an ostracized kid, but Dario quickly realizes that his wakeful nights are more blessing than curse, as there seems to be quite a few advantages in not having to sleep... Join Dario as he climbs the ranks of superhumans, uncovers hidden truths, travels the world, and discovers abilities he never before thought possible. This is a tale of superpowered/superhero-like individuals set in a dangerous fantasy world with hints of GameLit elements. Features MC with abilities deemed unique to the world and can disregard the need for sleep at no cost to himself. No Harems. Current Release Schedule: 3-5 chapters per week. (Slower updates for holiday season) First few chapters are fairly short, but the rest will average around 2.5k words.
8 57Life of a Core
After a disembodied voice had told him he was what amounted to an exceptionally talented rock, it had been hard to not let it go to his non-existent head. Until, random chance had decided to give him a square kick in the minerals. Which had in turn forced him to fend for himself in an unknown land, all while he attempted to make sense of his place in the world. Truthfully though, all he had really wanted to do from the start had been to bury himself a hundred feet below the ground and be left to his own devices. Yet, for one reason or another, nobody ever seemed willing to leave the dungeon-building core alone long enough to actually make one. Each chapter will average around two to three thousand words, the release schedule is still a WIP but you should expect the first six chapters to be released over the next six days. This is planned out as a dungeon building fiction, but don't expect it right off the bat! The story is a depiction of the everyday adventures (alongside an overarching plot) of what I imagine a dungeon core would experience when thrust into a random environment where everything and everyone tried to covet or eat him. I also really enjoy reading the comments and reviews people leave and would love to get some reader involvement with the story itself, likely through polls at the end of each chapter. I hope you enjoy my story! (If you feel like some of the characters seem familiar, you may have read some older work I wrote a while back under a different account. If you happen to be one of my old readers and recognize the similarities, I'm happy to have you back!)
8 104The Traveller from Afar
Lucas didn't know what he wanted, but it certainly wasn’t to get dragged into the middle of a another world. Too bad for him the universe had different plans and now he has to deal with the consequences of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. At least it isn't all bad, he gets to finally make use of those cooking lessons he was dragged into. Chapters 1-4 are kind of like a prologue, they are self contained and only give some background information for the rest of the story.*********This is my first attempt trying to write any type of longer form story so I have no idea if any thing I produce will be readable, I've tried to make sure I have a decent level of grammar and there are no spelling mistakes, but if you do find any please let me know. I am also from the home of tea and crumpets (the uk) so if there are some u's and s's your not used to seeing thats probably it. Uh I dont really know what else to put in a story description so just give it a shot and let me know what you think, any pointers would be greatly appeciated.
