《In My Head》Chapter 2 Becoming
Advertisement
Piece after piece of potential came near, each striking me. As each made contact with the me that was forming I felt myself separate from everything around me. I was becoming, forming into whatever it was that I would be.
I could hear something, voices telling me that this looked interesting or would be fun. One mentioned a 'choose your own adventure book' words that made sense on their own, but not together. It was weird, but not unpleasant.
As I waited and watched my body began to form from the aether. Soft curves of flesh settled into place over bones. Long hair grew from my head, a brilliant red. My skin was... pale and cold, like fresh snow.
There was a DING! and a menu popped into my mind. I could see it, but it didn't obscure anything, like it was a part of me.

As I was reading through I felt something grab me, wrapping around me tightly and chaining me in place. Then it yanked, pulling me at impossible speeds through the aether, down, down down. I left the realm of potential and slammed into that which was, landing in a slump on the ground. The cold, hard stone rough against my bare body.
I was in some kind of magic circle. Lines and symbols connecting into a diagram around me, drawn in chalk on the floor. It was complex in formation and... wrong. I wasn't sure how I knew, but I knew that it was supposed to hold me, and would not.
Before me a young man perhaps fourteen, more a boy, had his hands pressed just to the edge of the circle. He was pushing mana into the circle with a smile on his face. His gray robe hung loose upon him.

"Haha! I did it, it worked! That'll show them that I can't conjure... oh wait are you human?" The boy shouted in victory before he seemed a bit taken aback by my nudity, looking alarmed.
"What's going on in here?" A girl, looking just slightly older than the boy opened a door behind him. She was dressed in the same robes, with a small wooden staff in her hand. She looked at the circle, looked at me, looked at the circle again. I tried my best to cover myself with my hands, curling up a bit. "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING YOU LITTLE PERVERT!" Her roar of anger nearly a force upon the boy.

Truck-kun Gets Sacrificed
Driscoll is my own version of a world with a game-like "system" of endless possibilities. MC has his own status, classes, skills, magic, and a living greatswordstaff in a world of monsters, demi-humans of all kinds, and even the supernatural. Sound good? Well, at first for Tru, it was a dream come true(I'm sorry). At least until reality hits him again and again. His quest from God is vague and must be discovered by him along the way. Hopefully, he can figure that out someday but for now, this new world's threats and his potential for power are motivation aplenty. With His new partner by his side, he's ready to embark on his mission of infinite sacrifice, however many lives it takes. The setting is pretty standard for fantasy, with my beginner attempts at writing. Litrpg elements are definitely involved here but It'll calm down as the story progresses and the world's foundation is laid. Judeo/Christian themes and principles take a major role and will be a backbone for much of the story. The fights will paint a picture in the mind rather than just be a bunch of number crunching. While he is meant to be a sacrifice to save all of Driscoll, he needs to gain enough power and influence to be a worthwhile sacrifice, or so he thinks. And so carnage will ensue as he avoids death as best he can while at the same time sacking himself for others. Truck Coon is your average determined, jiu-jitsu practitioner, tax associate that just started his new career. He dies to save kids from a semi-truck(Truck Coon got truck-kun'd, making him Truck-kun) and is transported to another world rather conventionally by God. Upon his arrival, he is quickly confronted with his first conflicts in the wild. Give it a shot and let me know what you think. Chapters are currently between 2300 and 4000 words and I try to post weekly, but also deal with severe limitations that cause late posts often. I have zero actual experience with writing stories and only recently started reading web novels in 2020. If you end up hating it, let me know your thoughts in a detailed comment or review, especially if you love it though :D I want to get better and welcome the feedback, so expect changes to be made with any flaws that y'all point out which I don't already have plans to address in future chapters. That being said, keep it constructive in nature, please. I have no Idea how the formatting and such will go, so if you like or dislike some techniques I try, give me that well-appreciated feedback! Thank you for reading.

Coalescence of Two Lifetimes
Cilen was you typical, run-of-the-mill kinda guy. Well, until his parents passed away when he was 17 forcing him to learn to grow up. Fast. He figured it wouldn't be that bad. He had a house, he had an inheritance, he had friends that kept him company. And at first, it really wasn't anything But sometimes, the loneliness just gets to you. Sometimes, the expectation to not disappoint just gets to you. Sometimes, life just gets to you. And it brought Cilen to his knees, lamenting, cursing, questioning, "why?" "Why did his parents pass away as they did, forcing him to fend for his own?" "Why wasn't he born in a rich household, with a silver spoon in his mouth that catered to his every need?" "Why was every step forwards so difficult, in this accursed society?" He wished that everything would be easy, like inside the worlds of the wuxia novels that he had grown up reading. Special constitution, lucky breaks, fast powerup, get all the chicks and defeat the big evil guy. Simple, easy, satisfying. But life ain't cut out to be that way. The main actors were already set, and there was no changing them. Unless, you moved to a different stage... But this ain't one of your friendly neighborhood transmigrations. It rewards those that are patient, creative and willing to adapt. But perhaps Cilen is able to make use of this opportunity and become something more. _______________________________________________________________________________________________ This story is a personal love letter to all the pieces of fiction that I have read. Its a culmination of the things that made me laugh, cry and smile when I first read them and It has been a personal wish to craft a story that makes me feel the way I did when reading those stories for the first time. Its gonna be a slow ride but worth it. Promise. Photo by Johannes Plenio on Unsplash
