《Another World: Scientist》Chapter 8. Jackpot and Jinxed...
Advertisement
I keep walking forward while keeping an eye out for anything... Useful.'
I walk for an hour or so and still nothing.
I walk and walk until I find a cave...
"This... This might be it..." (Hayden)
I slowly enter the cave which is lit up by the Sun's rays coming through little cracks in the leaves.
I wander in it until I find...
Saltpeter, Coal and everything else needed for a gun and a few hundred bullets or a few guns and a few bullets for each.
There is not a huge quantity of everything... There is a lot of iron here though.
"I'll need Ion to scan this place... Maybe we can create some actual weapons that aren't from as late back as the 16'th century.
Maybe some 21'st century guns? Well... I don't know much, Ion will need to help." (Hayden)
I leave the cave slowly while looking for any other minerals or materials useful to us.
"Alright... This area was straight to the right of the base... Kind of hard to miss aswell..." (Hayden)
I go outside and look around to see if anybody or anything is here.
But it is clear... No danger.
I head back to the base but I constantly keep thinking that I am watched...
I look behind me to see an owl with... Even bigger than usual eyes stalking me...
That explains why I thought I was watched. It's... The damn owl.
I laugh to myself and the owl flies away after a while...
Probably thought I am insane or something.
I reach the base and enter it just to see Ion looking in the water...
"Ion?" (Hayden)
"Hmm... We might have a problem... Hayden..." (Ion)
I go and look at the water and see nothing at first but then something flashes in the water...

"Oi oi oi... Is that an electric eel? How are we supposed to get our water now? Oh wait... Simple answer." (Hayden)
I grab my longsword and start trying to stab it but it keeps swimming away... Until one time that is.
I stab it right in the head and pull it out.
"It's dead." (Ion)
"Yes. Yes it is. Wait... It isn't..." (Hayden)
The eel start squirming around trying to hit something as it's last desperate move.
I look at the metal sword and feel a small electrical current go through it as the little eel still squirms around a tad.
I then pull out the sword and stab it back in it's head again...
"Ok this time it's dead." (Hayden)
I pull out the sword and just in case I cut off it's neck.
I hear something lean on our gate as we were messing around with the eel...
"Ion.. Sssh... Something is at the gates..." (Hayden)
I sneak up to the gates and peek out...
It's the child again.
It's the child of my nightmares again...
"Ion, can you scare her?" (Hayden)
Ion moves up and down and moves to the peekhole and projects an elephant from our world right infront of the girl.
She screams and runs off to her town.
"Well that worked out well. I wonder what other surprises await us?" (Hayden)
I look out the peekhole and immediatly knew. I shouldn't have said that.
I really really shouldn't have jinxed us right now...

House of Gates
Lucia and Florencia, two halves of an empire, split down the center in a war that has raged for centuries. In the recent decades of the hostilities, the two sides have been particularly egregious towards one another. With the Battle of the Dead Emperors, the rulers and their immediate heirs on both sides of the conflict have been killed, leaving Lucia and Florencia with rulers not expected to be within the immediate line of succession. Together, Empress Caelestinius of Lucia and Albion Justin of Florencia have met in secret to discuss a plan to end the war once and for all. Nothing is certain as a plan to force the respective nobilities together to resolve their differences is enacted in the form of a trap. The houses will unite in marriage—or they will drown in blood. Maximilian Silvanus, lord of Lucia, is one such man of the nobility. He has fought and bled for Lucia. He has endured the childish taunts of his nemesis, Lady Gabriela Farreli on the field of defeat on several occasions. And now he must end hostilities? A letter from the Empress reaches him, commanding that he do so in order for him to make all due hast with the rest of his noble countrymen for the ancient and mysterious House of Gates. Max does not believe the ‘parley’ with the Florencians will go well. And if he sees Lady Farreli at the House of Gates? Why, he may just snap her neck before running her through.
