《Why a goblin?!》Hollywood
Advertisement
It was late at night in the forests surrounding the cave where a small group of goblins lived. Most of the goblins in that cave were soundly asleep, except for the four guards alertly carrying out their jobs.
With two guards posted at the entrance of the cave, while the remaining two were stationed in a passage within the cave itself, guarding against the dangerous stone monsters.
So if someone was able to see the expressions of both sets of guards at this very moment, they’d see two very different sets of expressions.
While the two guarding the cave entrance were both equally shocked and happy as they ran back towards the rest of the tribe to let them know the good news.
But the two goblins guarding the passage within the cave could be seen running with expressions of dread and worry to wake up Jaba and the rest of the sleeping tribe to warn them of the incoming danger.
Ah, Velora I’m finally home!! Look! I can see the cave entrance now! I might cry! It’s been a whole week dammit! I missed these little green bastards, especially Jaba.
Well, I suppose he isn’t actually all that little huh, either way, I miss them!
Then I finally see the two goblins who are supposed to be guarding the entrance to the cave, but before I can even say something, they immediately ran farther in.
I wonder if they recognize me. I definitely left here looking just like them but I came back looking like Jaba. Even I’d be confused.
Well can’t do anything about it now, they’ll know I’m the great goblin Rick soon enough! let's walk in.
[There’s a lot of noise coming from the cave.]
Maybe they’re just happy to see me? I mean who could blame them, it’s me after all.

[I doubt it.]
I’m starting to think you're hating on me Velora, but anyway it’s definitely a lot of noise, it almost sounds like...screaming.
[What's hater? And It is screaming.]
No time for that! Could it be the stone monsters attacking?! What type of crazy-ass coincidence is that?!
It only took a couple of seconds for me to sprint deeper into the cave to where the goblins slept, though not one of them was currently sleeping.
No one even reacted to my arrival, not even the two guards who saw me from the cave entrance paid any attention to me, but I couldn’t blame them.
The stone monsters were here after all.
At the back of the cave I could clearly spot Jaba at the front of three rows of goblins lined up in an orderly fashion with spears in hand giving orders of some sort, I even saw more than one evolved goblin standing next to Jaba.
Jaba and the other evolved goblins turned around to wait for the approaching stone monsters to exit from the passage and come out in the open cave.
They were huge.
About ten of them and they all easily surpassed twelve feet in height, they were dark brown in color, as if representing the cave walls themselves. They didn’t make any sound except for their loud steps as they made their way towards the waiting group of goblins.
It was at this point that I dropped everything in my hand except for my spear and immediately charged at them.
Velora discern them!!
[Understood.]
{Name - None}
{Age - 0}
{Race - Earth Golem}
{Level - 1}
{Health - 100/100}
{Mana - 0/0}
{Strength - 75}
{Agility - 4}
{Intelligence - 1}
{Endurance - 5}
So they're just a big pile of slow-ass moving rocks, that ain’t no problem! But I can definitely see how normal goblins wouldn’t stand a chance, especially with ten of them.

I immediately activated solidify, circulating the mana in my body as I could feel my skin harden all over my body and continued my sprint.
It was then that Jaba and the other goblins finally noticed me, but this isn’t any time for greetings!
Once I reached around thirty feet from the rearmost row of goblins, I instantly activated the dash skill and once I neared the end of the dash, I used every bit of strength in my legs to jump as high as I can and the momentum from my dash carried my giant body over the goblins.
Is this what it feels like to be a movie star in Hollywood?
Before I can get lost in my thoughts, my short-lived period of flight and stardom came to an end as I came crashing down on the closest earth golem in front of me. Of course, I didn’t forget to drive my spear through the head of the golem during that process.
Ending its boring golem life in the process.
[The earth golem’s health has reached zero, and it doesn’t show any signs of regenerating.]
Of course, I needed Velora to confirm that because I didn’t know if they had some sort of core that had to be destroyed or anything along those lines. That’d be really annoying of course.
I then let solidify wear off before I quickly jumped back towards Jaba and the rest of the goblins before the earth golems could converge on me.
“RICK IS THAT YOU?!”
Jaba, who seemed shocked beyond reason immediately yelled out to me once I reached them.
“Of course.”
After replying all cool like since this is my great green Hollywood style return to the tribe, I faced the incoming enemy before saying something else to Jaba.
“We’ll catch up later, let's put these guys back in the dirt first.”
Jaba nodded at me then seemingly instantly recovered from his initial surprise from seeing me, and quickly barked out some orders to the other goblins. I wonder when they got this organized.
“Nothing changed! Follow the same plan from before! Geedi and Dal will lead a group of seven normal goblins each!
Tars will take the remaining nine! All three squads will constantly run in, hit them, then quickly run! Keep repeating this process using everything we’ve learned! Never stay still, you are faster than them but weaker! Let's go!!!!”
I watch the orders from Jaba immediately get carried out and to be honest I’m a little stunned, when the hell did they get this organized for real?! And since when did Jaba know what hit and run tactics were?!
[You should go help them.]
Oh yeah...I knew that already Velora!
I see Jaba instantly run up to one of the golems alone with just his fists as his weapons, so I immediately reactivated solidify before dashing towards my next victim. Though I had my spear in hand instead of just naked fists.
Needless to say, the remaining nine earth golems didn’t stand a chance. Gang green strikes again.
[What’s gang green?]
You're ruining the moment Velora!

OUTLIERS
30 years ago brought the first superhumans, regular people given great power seemingly at random. 15 years ago brought the paranormals, stranger and often weaker in their abilities, but far more numerous. Today, the world holds its breath . . . Or at least, it should. Most people, though, are just trying to get on with their lives; some successfully, some less so. It's a sensible goal, but it can be hard when shadowy conspiracies and worldwide N.G.O.s are turning your city into a proxy battleground over world-shattering secrets. It’s bad enough when you’ve just woken up with superpowers and terrorists are holding your school hostage. It’s even worse if you’re an illegal vigilante stuck in the middle of the whole Charlie Foxtrot after a supervillain raid drops vital information in your lap. For Hannah Eiling-Kingsford and Flint Perez, life is about to get a lot harder to get on with. ----- Outliers is a superhero story. Okay, so not so much superhero as vaguely superhero-ish. It's about two teenagers dealing with, among other things, new powers, psycho exes, mysterious datapads and a giant, secret war between the foremost powers-that-be, over information that could forever change the world. Again. You know, normal teenage stuff. Outliers contains some foul language and mild sexual references. It is a complete story, and can also be read on its own website.
