《You can't run from us [BoyxBoy]》Chapter 20: I guess this is where I'm supposed to scream, right?

"Seriously dude you’re like killing my neck with that death-grip you know." I whined at Vincent and he bared his teeth slightly at me.
"Don’t be so dramatic princess, if you would just stop fighting me it wouldn’t hurt so much." Vincent retorted irritated. I tried to shove him away one more time but when that didn’t work I sighed and turned my eyes towards the others again.
The “new” guys had watched the whole thing between Alex, Vincent and me without saying a word but now the tall guy (who had called me “human”) opened his mouth and said sarcastically:
"Well I think we have seen enough haven’t we boys? The human comes with us."
He smiled at me and I shot him a “yes please save me from these lunatics- look”. Anton, Adam and Alex all started to growl darkly at him as soon as the words had left his mouth and the tall guy dropped his smile immediately. Suddenly he started to shake and all eyes turned in his direction. I furrowed my eyebrows at him and thought for myself that maybe he was having a seizure or something.
"Cover Ash’s eyes Vincent, now!" Alex growled, clearly a little panic-stricken. I shook my head violently and struggled against Vincent’s hold even more. “Nobody ain’t gonna cover my eyes that’s for sure.” I thought irritated while Vincent tried, but failed to get a good grip on me.
"Don’t be difficult Ash!" He growled at me but I still refused to hold still. Suddenly everybody grew quiet and tensed and I looked in the same direction as them feeling my eyes grow big.
No, this was impossible! I couldn’t believe my own eyes because where the tall guy had stood only seconds ago now stood a large brown and furry wolf!

I could feel how everybody’s eyes slowly shifted back to me and I could feel them supervising my every reaction. Especially Anton, Adam and Alex looked worried and their eyes never left my chocked face. When I hadn’t done or said anything for almost five minutes Vincent carefully started shaking me trying to get a reaction.
"I guess this is where I’m supposed to scream, right?" I could hear myself saying and I saw how everybody looked at me in disbelief. Alex slowly nodded and I found myself slightly shrugging my shoulders and saying:
"Well sorry to disappoint but I don’t think I have the strength to do that just now…" Everybody looked even more worried and I tried to smile but my face wouldn’t really cooperate.
"I think I’m in shock." I finally stated when I realized I couldn’t move either. Right then the brown wolf suddenly decided that enough was enough and he started to growl loudly and took a big leap towards Vincent and me.
Guess what I did? I screamed.

The Core: The First Guest (Book 1 of 3)
Book two starts here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/46417/the-core-the-hive-daughter-book-2-of-3 --- Kevin was just a normal 10 year old kid until he saw a woman vanish right before his eyes. This made Kevin just a little bit different. He paid more attention to people now. Little did he know that this little difference would kill him the next time he encountered another alien about to return home. It would tear him apart, cell by cell, until he was unmade. His mind being transported away. So distantly far away there is a race that advanced to the point where they built dyson spheres to house their civilizations. In their continual expansion, they seeded galaxies with pods and connection satellites. Over time they upgraded their dyson spheres into matryoshka brain Cores. Imagine a computer powered by a star. Citizens of Cores no longer age once they upload their minds into the virtual living system of the Core. While they didn’t age, most still choose to cycle through life and death though at a different scale of time compared to our lives. Citizens can visit other planets and live there as if they were on a "vacation". Mercury is Earth’s hub connected to the closest Core and Earth is a remote vacation spot for wealthy citizens. When the main character was 10 he witnessed a citizen returning to the Core. The story continues 10 odd years later when he again witnesses a similar situation unfolding and manages to touch the person returning to the Core. This causes him to be swept up in the transfer as well and for his mind to join as a "Guest" user of the Core. As a Guest he has limited powers, a starting balance of zero cr or Citizen credits, and no idea how he can get home. He is the first human to ever become a Guest of a Core. Where money itself is the highest form of their science. --- Progress update: Progress update: COMPLETE Stories:✦The Core: The First Guest (The Core: Book 1 of 3) ✦The Core: The Hive Daughter (The Core: Book 2 of 3) The Core: The Hive Daughter (Book 2 of 3) | Royal Road Stories in PROGRESS:✦The Core: The Dark Enemy (The Core: Book 3 of 3)PROJECTED Stories and Series: ★The Radiative Zone Series: The Girl with Powers (3 book series) ✶The Convective Zone Series: Into the Game (3 book series) This series is a work in progress.

Swindle
—A Celebration of all things chess... Shounen Sports–manga Style. Anasthese is the current reigning World Champion for the Junior Chess Female Division. For years, she's wanted nothing more than to beat the Male Division Champion, Rei. These two are considered prodigies way ahead of their age; none of their peers even come close to holding a candle against them. But be that as it may, Anasthese too, cannot hold a candle to Rei... She's never beaten Rei once he's serious. Anasthese has always considered Rei the best of her generation. It's her lifelong goal to beat and surpass him. That's why, when Rei's cancer had become fatal after their 3rd year running, Anasthese took it hard. Rei will die, with her never having beaten him, not even once. Things take an unexpected turn when Rei reveals that he is far from the "invincible" player Anasthese envisions him to be. Even he has someome he could never beat, not even if his life depended on it... a fellow apprentice who studied with him under GM Amane. A guy so-called "Net". This enrages Anasthese. A person stronger than Rei should not exist. Because if he did, then what has all her efforts for the past years been for? And if this Net "does" exist, why doesn't he challenge Rei for the title? Rei tells her it's not that simple... Net's playstyle is void. It's an enigma. It's chess that should not exist, and should physically not be possible to play. It goes against all logic, and it's power is not something that can be measured in numbers. It's something that would "absolutely not work" in a professional setting. Anasthese attends Rei's funeral as a last rite before setting off for Japan, bound towards the disintegrating Futenma Shintenkan Highschool chessclub, of which there are only two members left: Mukuro and Net. She has to see it with her own eyes, a playstyle that Rei lost to... And as Anasthese stays for the long-term, various misadventures are started at Futenma High, including rebuildung the club, Anasthese's "Royal Guards" (four girls dedicated to serving Anasthese and helping challenge Rei) coming to take her back to America, and unexpected guests gracing the local Sports Meet chess scene. From a guy who can only play well everytime money's involved, to a girl who plays on a weird "Magical Girls vs Orcs" chess set, get introduced to the quirky playstyles that make chess wonderful. (Disclaimer: I am not a chess pro, I'm only 1400. Expect me to have no idea what I'm talking about at certain times...)
