《The Runestones》The Crush

"Wake up kids we have to go register at the training camp" announced Mr. Boran
"What! Who is announcing this early in the morning" said Freyre being annoyed
"I repeat, walk up and meet me outside of the lodge, we have to go register at the training camp" preannounced Boran'
"Can't they let us sleep in peace once in a while I swear to god I am tired of them now" continued Freyre
"Not like we've got a choice Freyre' said Arne
"Come on, get up" said Aidan
Everybody freshens up and starts heading outside the lodge, when they say that Freyre had a frowning look on his face, he was more tired than anybody, he was even walking in a bended was. Until he saw his crush in the hallway, and in a flash of a second his face was sparkling and his posture was all fixed, he started walking upright and had more power in his voice
"Look at him, he couldn't even stand up properly just a moment ago and now he is like a superior escorting us outside of the lodge" taunted Arne
Just by having a glance at her, Freyre got his heart pounding, and said "Well, I feel very good suddenly"
"'Suddenly', Man don't lie to us, it would be clear even to a blind man that you have a crush on Rylee" said Arne
Freyre blushingly got flustered and said "NO, NO, THERES NOTHING LIKE THAT"
"We have seen how you look at her during classes and don't have a single ounce of confidence, you should try to talk to her, maybe you can confess about your feelings at whatever this training camp is." Said Geir
"But I've nothing to confess about, I don't have a crush on Rylee", said Freyre in an almost disappointed flustered voice

"Okay you're not going to accept now, are you?" said Arne
Let's just go to Mr. Boran, or he won't shut up announcing the same thing over and over again" said Aidan
"Yes, let's go" said Freyre with a breath of relief knowing it was over for now
Everybody gathered outside the lodge
"Why do all of you take so much time to get ready and get here, you're about to learn how to use magic, is none of you excited?" asked Mr Boran
"We are Sir, some of us are just feeling a bit nauseous maybe because we circulated mana for the first time yesterday" said Lance
"We just did." said many kids in unison
"Okay, you can all rest after some time, we have to register at the training camp and we got no time to spare" said Mr Boran
"But Sir, what is this training camp for? don't we have to apply for the magic academy admissions" asked Lance
"Yes, we were supposed to do that, but we just got the news, that academies have made in mandatory, for students to know, how to circulate and use magic, as a prerequisite skill, because of the recent problems caused by the dark race. They've decided to nurture candidates, with whom it's easier to proceed with the lessons and spare the teachers to help with the problems, don't worry everybody can get admission, you just need to learn how to control magic at the training camp, as long as you do that, you can immediately get admission in the academy. Make sure to work hard and learn to circulate magic as soon as possible, and get further help on the path of using magic.
"I'll be there for your help, as I am appointed as a teacher myself, don't hesitate to contact me for guidance or anything you need help with" explained Mr. Boran with a joyous expression on his face

"And enough with the explanation, I hope everybody got it, we have to walk from here up to the Training Camp, and it's a day travel, so go get your bags, and we'll head off in half an hour" instructed Mr. Boran
Just about after Half an hour, students started gathering outside the lodge, and for the ones who were not, Mr. Boran announced "I am saying it for the last time, everyone who's still in the lodge gather here in under 2 minutes, or we'll leave, and you'd have to make it there on your own"
Everybody gathered except Arne, Freyre, and Geir
"Arne, Freyre, Geir, For the very last time, get outside in 10 seconds or we'll leave, if you don't, you know what to do" announced Mr. Boran
There still was no sign from either of them
"Well then, lets head our way, it's a long trip, if they want to come along, they'll catch up, or make their own way" said Mr Boran
"I am going to stay here, sir, I'll come along with them' insisted Aiden
"Do as you see fit; we'll get going" said Mr. Boran with an utter disappointment on his face
Aiden quickly went into the lodge to see what's keeping them, he saw them sleeping, and arne was trying to wake them up.
"What happened to them?" asked Aidan
"They were just done with packing their bags and they slept, haven't been waking up since then, I've tried everything" replied Arne
"Now, everybody has left already, let them sleep as long as they want, we'll have to find our way to the camp now. They'll be a bother if they're sleepy" replied Aidan, with a frustrated look on his face
"Well So be it, we should rest too then." said Arne
"Okay..." replied Aidan
Just like that, they rested , and 7 hours passed by

Until You Do It Right
The world ended on December thirty-first of the year two thousand and twenty, precisely at the stroke of midnight. The human race began to be systematically exterminated by the spawn of the System. We were given a chance to defeat them, to take back our place at the top of the food chain. We failed. The first to perish were those who bravely rebelled. The soldiers. The defenders. One by one, they fell. In their final moments, they begged for aid. Nobody replied. The next to succumb were those who feebly cowered. The deniers. The leeches. Together, they fell. In their final moments, they cried out into the darkness. Countless voices replied in kind. The last to decline were those who shamelessly ran. The deserters. The cowardly. Alone, they fell. In their final moments, they whimpered quietly. There was nobody left to answer. The final human to die was a survivor. A runner. As he died, he begged for salvation. His prayers were answered. He was offered a chance to save himself, along with all of humanity, and he took it. This is his story. “I sat in the dark and thought: There’s no big apocalypse. Just an endless procession of little ones.”― Neil Gaiman, Signal to Noise. I am absolutely new to writing and will take any and all constructive criticism. Please give feedback, it is greatly appreciated. I will update the tags as they change, and I hope that you enjoy this little story I'm writing! Quick warning: Seamus is intentionally a flawed character, and this story is going to explore those flaws and perhaps even change a few of them. I do not agree with all of his actions, but it is what it is.

Second Wind, legend of Pandemonium (Finished/Incomplete)
The developers of the worlds leading VRMMORPG Edge Online have decided to shut down its servers after over a decade. Shugireth Darkstar, the leader of Pandemonium, Edge Online's top guild, suffers from a deadly disease and his end is near. He hasn't left his VR pod for 5 years, as the medical nanodroids at the hospital takes care of him. Without Edge, he will die, because his physical body has already been all but destroyed by the sickness. Seeing no light at the end of the tunnel, Shugireth Darkstar, the Master of Pandemonium, stubbornly stays behind as the servers shut down... If that was all, we could end this story right here. However, that was only the beginning of the legend of pandemonium. The prelude to the movement, if you will. Shall we see what happens next? -------------- Some notes from Me (The author, gasp surprise): I first wrote this (100k) as an experiment. I saw the advice about having foils for overpowered MCs, and I watched quite a few lectures on writing. I wanted to test things out for myself and see if I could carry a story through other ways than only relying on physical conflict like some thrillers do. Thus this might lean a bit towards slice of life with a romance subplot, but I don't want to give my story away so read it if u want to know more. This was basically never intended for anyone else's eyes but my own, and written to explore writing as a process. This wasn't my attempt at writing a good book, but it turned into something that I think might interest some people, so I decided to pop it up here. It is slightly old so my style and writing skills have advanced considerably since I first started this thing. Having said that, I think it's pretty readable, but I am very interested in how other people will receive this. Please feel free to criticize it and just in general shoot me some feedback on what you think. It contains light Litrpg elements, not heavy table spam, it's just the basis of the world. Although I like that sort of thing, this was written before I even knew of Royalroad and hadn't considered litrpg much. Some of you may recognize that it was slightly inspired by Overlord. Also, the Tags for sexual content and traumatizing content are there as a precaution on all of my stories pretty much, even if my story does not contain any of that at the moment. I can't really know what the future will bring, but in the case of this story I do know a little bit, since I wrote 100k words before posting it here. And I just posted it on a whim because I figured some readers on Royalroad might enjoy this story.
