《Inner Demons》Chunin Exams Begin!
Advertisement
Voices are raised in annoyance as we push our way through the crowd. Everyone is surrounding a single door labelled with the room number we were told to meet at. Two men stood at the door, restricting access from aspiring Chunin participants. I feel irritated as I watch the scene before me, 'these people looked like jerks'.
I started to stride up to the men, arrogance and pride taking over. I felt my hand clench into a fist, ready to punch one of the men as soon as we got into range. I was closing in on them when I felt a soft tap on my shoulder. It was soft and hesitant, as if the person was unsure whether this was the right action to take. I turned around expecting to see a petite female but instead I saw the most unexpected person.
"Naruto?!" I was confused, befuddled and unsure on what was going on. Naruto's face was blank, a void of emotion. He looked right and left before whispering something in my ear.
My only response was, " Tch, I knew that! Only a complete and utter IDIOT wouldn't notice that the door and people are acts of genjutsu!" I pushed him slightly, causing him to fall behind me and I continued to walk onwards.
This time, my choice in action was different however. This time I wanted to show off my knowledge to the people around us.
" Oi brat! You're not allowed in there!" The man's face looked down on him, a glare of distaste.
" Hn, I didn't want to go in. This isn't where I'm heading, this is merely a genjutsu to fool those who are unworthy of becoming Chunins."
"Tsk! You got us..." A puff of white smoke blurred my vision before I saw that the figures had changed. They now wore proper ninja gear that conveyed their status as Chunin or higher.

" Well, are you going to go to the class now?" I glanced up at the male, remaining stoic and aloof before I merely grunted in acknowledgement. I then sauntered away, Naruto and Sakura scurrying after me. We almost made it to the door when we heard a squeaky, enthusiastic voice.
I turned around to find a scrawny boy wearing the most HORRENDOUS green bodysuit and also fashioning bandages around his arms. His face was lit with determination and excitement. " You there!" He pointed at Sakura, showing all of his teeth in a wide grin, " My name is Rock Lee! Will you go out with me?!".
I already knew the answer before it was spoken- well, screeched. "No way, baka! I only love Sasuke-kun!"
" Who's that?" The teenager asked, obviously hoping that he could destroy someone as supreme as ME.
"Hn." I grunted, gaining his attention.
Lee straightened up before declaring, " I challenge you to a battle for this fair lady's heart!".
I merely gave a sigh of annoyance before I quickly surveyed the setting around us. No one else was here besides his two teammates, a girl and a boy. The girl looked bored and slightly annoyed, while the boy was winking at someone behind me. I turned around, expecting to see Sakura or a different beautiful girl. There stood Naruto. He looked flustered from the attention, yet he gave a small smile back in the boy's direction.
I felt a tiny bit of annoyance at the situation before I brushed it off. I didn't like Naruto at all, why should I care if someone flirts with him? I turned back to my opponent and began to fight.
Author's Note: Contrary to multiple beliefs, I am NOT DEAD! [*Insert confetti bomb and cheering here*]. I am SO sorry for not updating sooner, I was caught up with quite a lot of things and ended up neglecting my writing. Anyways, I'll try to make it up to you. Also, this isn't a Neji x Naruto fanfic (in case you were confused). I support the ship but that isn't where the story is headed, you shall find out why I put that in there later on.

I will not be eaten
Litchi is your ordinary Royal Road addict. She can’t resist the call of a new chapter even when she needs to work. Because of too many new responsibilities she promises one week without reading. Sadly, she cracks in three days, because of an Azarinth Healer notification. Taking out her phone she starts avidly reading. It’s just a small promise, she will try it another time. Nothing should happen. Say that to the goblin that tries to eat your face, Litchi! You should keep your promise! She was used to food jokes on her name but it seems that this time her destiny is to be eaten. ---- Hello future reader! I didn’t find a new good isekai so why not create my own? I am an RR addict and amateur writer (in French) and today I decided to publish a story. You will have my eternal gratitude for any advice or constructive comments on the story! One of my objectives is to have developed characters, duo or trio make a fantastic way to character growth. So, I will try to create a deep relationship between a few of them. The first few chapters have a lot of combat, but other characters will soon arrive. Those first few chapters are made to build tension and create Litchi's first motivations. This story has the plot written to the end and important characters already shaped. This story is short in comparison to the majority of RR fantasy stories. Update every two days until I have no more chapters in my pocket. Average chapter length: 2200 words Warning: The grammar can be bad, IMPORTANT CHARACTERS CAN (Will) DIE, contain philosophical conversation as the characters stumble upon morals dilemmas. I hope I will see you soon in the comments and thank you in advance for reading Litchi’s journey. Have a nice day! :)

Letters from a Dying World
Times historic are often penned after the fact in the lifeblood of the pitiful, forgotten masses. That roiling, uncountable crush of humanity, they who held the pikes and they who threw down the tyrants. Their veins opened by gazes academic, sharp and cruel, and pecked away at with quills, written out of their own story. The Second Dark Crusade was a time of such poignancy. A time when the light of man waned and flickered, choking in the acrid smoke of its own inadequacy. As befitting of such an age it has been covered more than a capital whore, and so I attempt not to tell that story again. That story of dull, unfeeling analysis. Neither here will you find the browbeating, propagandistic screeds so common in the hands of men, the light of youth still burning behind their eyes. Nay, here I shall attempt to cover fresh ground, not tread on the grave dirt of long dead authors. Here I shall attempt to tell the story of the small lives caught, unbeknownst to them, in the great and torrential downpour that we now call history. Here lies the true story of The Second Crusade. - Loremaster Ip'Qal
