《Girls Like Girls » Jane Volturi》TWENTY-FIVE ✔️

Chaos.
Aurora collided with a wolf, its claws digging into her skin, a scratching sound coming from being in contact with a marble like exterior.
She grit her teeth and grabbed the wolves paw, forcing it from her arm and flipped it onto it's back. The wolf let out a whimper as one of it's legs broke.
Pity struck Aurora as she glanced at the animal, though it was short lived as she felt strong arms wrap around her torso, throwing her to the ground.
She glanced at the vampire who grabbed her, he was unrecognizable to her... and stronger. She huffed as she attempted to fight him off, kicking his legs from under him, only to be pulled down in the process.
He wrapped an arm around her head, and began to pull, her vision blurring slightly.
Goodbye, Jane. I'm sorry, Bella, I didn't want this for your family.
But just when she thought it was over, he was pulled off of her and his head detached in a quick movement. She glanced at her savior, finding it to be Felix. She nodded her thanks.
"Stay alive," was all he said.
She searched around for another target, her eyes falling on Demetri's red cloak. He was fighting with Jasper, who was winning.
Out of the corner of her eye she saw Jane, approaching the two and staring calming. Her gift, Aurora had assumed, was in use.
What happened next Aurora couldn't quite understand, she saw Demetri behead Jasper only for her attention to be drawn to Alec, who was fighting Bella.
She saw Alec run to Bella and fly in the air to tackle her, only to be grabbed by Emmett Cullen and slammed into the snow. Emmett shoved his boot into Alec's neck, and a crunch was heard. Suddenly, Alec's body was flying through the air.

Aurora's eyes immediately went to Jane, who stumbled, pain-for the first time- on her face.
Her attention was pulled away as she was grabbed from behind, though the person was significantly smaller than her, and giftless. It took Aurora a short time to rip her head free and toss it to the side, and aching feeling flowing through her, guilt wracking her mind.
A wolf was unfortunate enough to land in-front of Jane, Aurora saw, and was soon howling in pain. Jane seemed to be enjoying it, vengeance for her brother.
Felix got his arms around the wolf's neck, and snapped it, causing the body to fall limply to the snow.
A howl rang out, the wolf's other pack member mourning. It's howl a song of sorrow.
Then, the earth split open.
In the middle of the snowy field appeared a crack, rocky and perilous many fights were ended as one or more of the participants fell in, to their doom.
Aurora saw Edward fall in, Demetri walking away with a smirk, before turning around at a yell. Edward jumped from the hole in the ground and flew towards Demetri, grabbing his head and flipping around so Demetri's neck was strained.
His head detached from his body- which flew in the air and landed near Jane, who gasped and looked around, meeting Aurora's eyes. She gave her a look, which seemed ordinary, but Aurora recognized.
It was the look Jame had given her before she spoke the words that calmed Aurora down many times- most recently when she found out that she would have to fight her former friends.
It was as of Jane's voice was in her head as Aurora watched what happened next.
You are my sunshine
Jane came face to face with Alice. The brunette rushed towards Jane, sliding under many to get to the blonde, wanting revenge for Jasper. Jane attempted to use her power, only to be blocked by Bella.

My only sunshine
Now frightened, Jane turned around and began running, the rare face of fear being exhibited. Alice jumped infront of her as Jane was looking back, and grabbed the blonde's neck. A choking noise emitting from Jane.
You make me happy, when skies are gray.
A black wolf stalked towards Jane, Alec's hand in it's mouth. It dropped it and licked it's lips. Alice dragged Jane closer to the wolf, cries escaping the blonde.
You'll never know dear, how much I love you.
Alice threw Jane at the wolf's feet, a glare on her face. The wolf wasted no time in pouncing in her, biting at her head and clothing, dying gasps combing from the young girl's mouth. The wolf pulled off her head and spat it out, causing it to sail far, and landing next to Alec's body, lifeless.
Aurora felt a shock to her neck, and her knees collapsed underneath her. Her attacker, whom she saw a flash of their blonde hair- began to pull on her head, and Aurora new - nobody was coming to save her.
She closed her eyes, memories flashing through her head, focusing on six words as she welcomed death.
Please don't take my sunshine away.

Edge Cases (Book 1 Complete!)
Rare classes and powerful skills are helpful. Too bad the system doesn't seem built to handle them. What even are all these errors? Our team of outcasts and adventurers will have to rely on their trust - and the bane of all stories, healthy communication - just to survive, let alone understand what the system is doing. Because they're quickly realizing that it's doing something; to people, to monsters, and maybe even to the gods themselves. And their goal isn't just to survive; it's to make things better. It's a good thing they're not doing it alone. --- Edge Cases is an attempt to take the LitRPG genre and the overpowered MCs trope and write a story where numbers aren't everything. Sometimes it takes trust, support, and just a touch of being very, very clever. Expect a mix of action, slice-of-life, friendship, and ominous worldbuilding. Updates M-W-F at 6pm EST. Cover art by Alovck of Artstation, and typesetting by jessessey right here on RoyalRoad.
8 228Dungeon Core Chat Room.
This is a slower-paced "experiment and dungeon building" web novel that tries to use the idea of peer-to-peer communication with Dungeon Cores instead of Dungeon to slave monster communication to break up the detailed dungeon building. Rank 1 description: (minimum met for system initialization...detailed description as follows) Each race was given a system by the gods to make up for their shortcomings and balance their place in this world. Humans: Abysmally bad at understanding and using magic unable to use more than the lowest of magic were given the "Skill System" magic in the form of premade skills with use, study, and mastery tied to experience. Elves: Intuitively understand magic and have long lives leading to vast knowledge and skill in their chosen fields. However, as a species, they have nearly zero sex drive and less than low fertility, so they were gifted the "World Tree System" with experience gained through the care of natural areas – gifting the chance of children to increase their numbers without dirty copulation. All “natural” or “wild” monsters are given an "Evolution system" designed around killing and consuming as many creatures as possible, slowly increasing strength and, at thresholds, allowing mutations to alter them multiple times. Dungeon cores are different. Unlike humans, they can see, manipulate and live off mana. Unlike Elves, they naturally crystallize after extended periods of time in high mana level areas. However, they cannot easily move or communicate and typically go insane without companionship. As a species other than the odd eccentric they are unimaginative. Brute forcing solutions without the drive to truly innovate. Thus they have been gifted with the "Dungeon Connection System" a magical version of the internet accessible by their peers that allows them to barter and sell: bait, traps, monsters, and knowledge, as well as entertain each other with “adventure streams” using exciting recorded battles and humorous reels of arrogant chumps biting off more than they can chew to often fatal effects. This is the casual story of a dungeon unluckily spawned far from potential adventurers forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in this world. Rank 2 Description: Justification. I've been on a dungeon core kick for months and while I love the genre – it's sparse with entries. Often the forced conflict gets repetitive and frantic solving of threats "power levels" the protagonist to god levels to progress the plot – taking away the nice steady progression fantasy I'm looking for. (Progression in this story is linked to how strong of monsters/traps/whatever he can create not his "level"...this is demonstrated by some of his newer monsters beating his older monsters not with discrete "this monster has 10 attack this one has 40") Additionally, the focus on 3rd parties with their drama takes away from the reason I’m reading dungeon core novels in the first place – I'm looking for magical crafting, experimentation and kingdom building – not defence from higher and higher levelled enemies looking to steal/destroy/control the MC. This novel is kind of just me writing the story I wish I could read. I like thinking about the experimentation that can be done in fantasy settings using 'mana' as an excuse to make up rules and try to keep them internally consistent. IE once I define how a rule works, I'm going to commit to keeping it – no breaking hard truths I've given when it's convenient, even if it backs me into a corner. Hopefully, that should make the story interesting to read even if it's SOL and less action-oriented. There will be problems to solve and a clear progression in strength (of created monsters and knowledge) however due to not wanting to force conflict for the sake of conflict the general theme will be closer to slice of life with few action sequences and no overarching goal so please keep that in mind when picking this up as the genre is not for everyone. Finally, I have a clear goal of what I want from this story (not an endless romp but a series of arcs and then a conclusion that's a couple of dozen medium-sized chapters long) I want to commit to finishing it or at least bringing it to a point of rest. I hate all the engaging stories that stop with a “hiatus” indefinitely so in the event I lose motivation I'll work to end this even if the ending becomes rushed/unsatisfying just to give a sense of closure. I’m planning on including several polls in terms of direction and taking feedback heavily into account if I get enough readers (but may choose to ignore it if it deviates too far from the direction I want to take this as in feedback like: “The MC needs a cartoonishly evil arch-enemy that wants to enslave him and force the mc to pump out magic items” or “the MC needs to make a body and learn teleportation then live with humans” will get shot down without consideration.)
8 258Exitium (dropped)
Year 2232 World destruction is imminent. All nation leaders and renowned scientists gather at the UN for a secret meeting, called by a doctor, declaring to have a way to perpetuate humanity... but on another planet, a very hostile one. Planet Exitium, the closest habitable planet, filled with deadly fauna and flora. This is the story about the people sent there- children, to be honest. Children with no idea where they are, what had happened to them, and what would be of their life. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is my first story ever, and I hope you all like it, I'm sorry for the horrible piece of art that is the cover, I did it myself, and have absolutely no skills in photoshop, and I'll change it later. And yes, the MC's get some pretty OP skills and weapons.... At least until they find the enemy...
