《Earth: The Gods' Playground》Chapter 2

Chapter 2
As I was thinking about the future in front of me again appeared a screen.
Gods' Playground has started! Players are now able to participate. Good luck little mortals.
"So it has started"
The next moment I hear a roar of a beast outside.
I cautiously approach my window and look and try to spot it.
"It's there, this fucker is some kind of boar, but being that big he could probably crush me like a stick."
It looks like a boar but it has pitch black fur and from his mouth rises some big fangs.
Boar outside is walking around sniffing ground, maybe I left a fragrance when I returned from my car?
He is approaching the car.
"no, no, nono, Hell no! This pig is now charging at my precious car!"
"throttle throttle... Crash."
"Ah my little car now doesn't have right front door" sniff.
"I will have revenge for this you stupid monster."
"Come to think of it, it's 12 am now but even so in this flat I live for 4 families there should be other people right now..."
"or maybe outside" I talk to myself as I hear loud scream.
~~~~
Change of POV to Old lady neighbor:
As I walked towards my home I surprisingly spotted a boar.
But hey isn't he too big?
Oh, no, why is it charging at me?!
"AAAAAAAHHHH"
I cry as I try to dodge.
"What the hell is going on? Is it connected to that message from before?" clueless I stand from where I jumped and try to run toward my flat.
It crashed into the trash can but it didn't stop it.
It looks confused because I dodged?
But after a second he spots me again and charges.
"Fuck!!!"

I'm only ten meters from my door.
But won't it crush it when he crashes into it after I close it after me?
As I check how far is it behind me is the worst time in my life...
I toppled on a pebble.
"Aurghh!"
I cry as I slide by rock pathway.
~~~~
Return to Thomas POV
"She toppled, how can you topple in life-death situation?"
"Ah this lady can't even run away. What a pity that the monster boar is right behind her" I say as I see the lady pierced by elephant like fangs although smaller.
"It must've hurt a lot" I tremble.
"Pity I couldn't save her, If I have gone there we would be both dead by now."
But as it weights about 200kg and is fast then it should be worse in turning.
I should be able to dodge it just before he crashes into me, and slash it side with my makeshift spear.
"Looks like other neighbors won't come outside for now to fight it, maybe they are scared or just preparing, but this is my chance."
"Don't think I can't even beat a boar in front of my house!"
I step outside my apartment and quietly step down the stairs leading to outside door.
Placing my ear right next to the door frame I can hear it gurgling sounds.
"Does this monster eat human flesh? No way."
I better hurry.
I carefully open the door so to not make much sound, but as I open it halfway it hears me.
"Shit, must it have so good hearing sense?!"
No choice then, I charge.
Now that I'm in front of it, it sure looks scary for a boar.
Just as we almost crash into each other, I jump sideways while pressing my spear to the right with all my might.[/size][/color]

Slash
I managed surprisingly to tear of some flesh of it but my arms are numb from the shocking counter force.
"Come here! You bitch!"
I turn the same moment and charge again, the monster is too slow to turn and I have an opportunity
Crack...crack..shatter
I kicked it's leg with my reinforced boot and luckily broke it, looks that it is a weak spot.
"Weak leg bones huh? Better this than no weakness."
The boar is hurt, now that one of it's leg is broken it slowed down, but not enough to stop being threat to me, it looks angry as hell.
"Let's end it, come on you monster!"
I charge again and step to the left, monster due to hurt leg can't turn that fast and he falls.
Best possible situation has happened.
Beast is defenseless.
This is my chance.
I look at my spear that barely hangs on from just one hit, and steel myself, this will be my first kill in life.
I rise my spear high to the sky.
Gurgle...gurgle
Monster is making incomprehensible voices.
He asks me to be spared.
"You should do that before you killed my neighbor and tried to do same to me. DIE!"
I pierce neck of the boar and blood flows unceasingly.
I did it.
My first step.
As I look at dead body in front of me excited, familiar screen greets me, as I feel sharp pain in my whole body.
I drop to my knees but keep my consciousness
CONGRATULATIONS! By killing monster in front of you, you registered your wish to participate. You are now a player.

The cover is commisioned and done by: Artist: FatCatInTheBox ***** Before you lot bashes me up with my English etc., consider this: 1. This is my first novel. First conceptualized and written some 23 years ago. Only until last year that I did some improvisations and improvements to what I had kept in the dusty corner of my room all these while. This story sees the light of the day because I challenged myself, that's all. 2. English is the 6th language that I speak.And in RRL, I'm using British English mostly to write my story. 3. Easier said than done. Rather than subjecting me to subjective comments/reviews about the language, point it out and suggest an alternative. One or two would do just fine. It goes a long way. The Pledge - This story shall continue till it ends properly.

Saga of Fallen Kings, Book I: The Revenant Prince
The Philosopher King once conquered the known world, his power seemingly unlimited and his armies inexhaustible. Since that time his might has slowly unravelled, and his once steadfast empire has begun to crack, splinter and devour itself. In the isolated Southern Realms, where even magic has abandoned them, none of that matters. For years it has been filled with warring kingdoms, where as many kings die to the blade as to old age, and constant battles tear apart the land. When one such kingdom invades its old enemy, the King and his heir, Prince Caden, are killed. Unable to accept the loss of his family Prince Arian is broken, and when the Philosopher King stretches out his hand in aid, Arian takes it without a second thought. When Caden wakes from death, he's different. His eyes and soul have changed, and he finds a world filled with friends who no longer trust he's even human. Suddenly thrust onto the throne and indebted to the Philosopher King, Caden has no choice but to keep going - he must finish what his father started, and try to survive the machinations of the figure who now owns his fealty. Meanwhile something beyond death stirs for him, desiring nothing more than to drag him back into its embrace. Author's Note: This story used to be known as "A King of his Own", but after some consideration I have decided to rebrand it. The first reason is that I was growing increasingly dissatisfied with the title. The second is that I have come increasingly to view this story as a 'saga' containing multiple 'books' rather than one long, continuous publication, and as I did so I realized that as I was quickly getting to a point in the story where I wanted the first 'book' to end. This doesn't mean I'm going back on the things I said below - they're just going to continue in the next book of the Saga of Fallen Kings. :) Also, be aware that I do plan to edit this at some point. Though I take care to squash out any obvious errors when I proof-read, and do simple edits in that process, at some point I'm almost certainly going to do large edits that might significantly change parts of the story. Old author's notes: This started as a completely random writing session. There was no purpose or direction, but as I kept typing an entire world began to form in my mind that I knew I had to write about. My plan is to turn this story into a veritable medieval fantasy epic that spans an entire world, follows multiple character and storylines, and takes place over many years. The story has quite a grounded, almost 'realistic' start, but many more fantastical elements will be introduced, expanded upon and become central to the narrative. I have ideas for this story that make me genuinely excited and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing it, and join me on what will hopefully become a truly massive fantasy epic. If you do enjoy this story please consider following, rating and leaving a review. I'm also happy to answer any questions or comments you have.
