《Space Games: Training Phase》Ranking Tournament Round 1: Beo and Ciara
Advertisement
I was nervous about my match up. I have not heard about Luci but could it be a guy or a girl? Lucian was a guy-ish name while Luci was a girls name.
I gave a dreaded sigh and walked into the arena to meet up with a girl in the center.
She bowed and I nervously saluted her. The battle bell commended and I flew back, pulling out a sniper rifle. I prepared to fire but she was already in my face.
I panicked and hit her with the butt of my rifle but she downed me with a leg sweep. My vision blacked out but I flailed around wildly and I felt my fists connect.
When my vision finally cleared I saw Luci stumbling around, dazed by my attack.
I grew confident and prepared my sniper to take a shot, Luci took out dual pistols and started to spin. The bullets were fired at random directions, I felt a bullet impact his leg and he stumbled, the shot blowing off one of her arms instead of her torso like he intended to.
I decided taking the time to shoot with the sniper took to much time so I abandoned it and charged her with my knife out, first getting a few shots with my pistol to disable her other arm, though i missed sorely.
I felt another bullet dig itself deep into my cheeks and the blood starting to pool in my shoes but I ignored it to slash at Luci's throat.
When I arrived at Luci she seemed to come out of her daze and sharply focus her sights on me, I was to close to pull back so I went with another slash and she countered with an elbow to the neck. I got her neck but she destroyed my windpipes. Both unable to move we had to wait to find out who died first, blood-loss or suffocation

I tried to breathe but Luci crushed my windpipe good, Air couldn't come in, I felt myself grow dizzy before I blacked out from the pain of trying to draw in air.
I woke up in the pod and stumbled out and gasped for air, likewise Luci was collapsed on the ground holding her neck and breathing heavily.
Match Result: TIE, no one advances forward.
Luci cried out in distrest and I just sighed in relief, No more fighting, that was to much already, The fight today was enough, I was glad for a week of intermission between each mission.
When I got back, Ciara was already back and she was all giddy and smiling. "I guess you won your match huh?"
Ciara nods gleefully and I pulled up a replay of her match,
Both her and Rasphee were close range fighters, Ciara used her fists and needles while Rasphee used a close-range whip inlaid with spikes. Ciara was caught a few times, but Rasphee's big mistake was drawing Ciara in toward herself. Ciara took the momentum to launch herself at Rasphee and disable and stun using impacts from her fists to block her nerve system. Ciara finished her by blunt damage.
The final matches have taken place you are allowed one day to rest and relax, to improve your fighting style.
Beo looked toward the winners of his team, Ciara and Nima,
"Good luck guys, who knows what monsters make it to the second round"

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero (Update 09/19/21)
(Updated 09/19/21) Hello and welcome. If you made it this far and the book title sounds interesting, I'm hoping you'll read a few chapters. Here's a sample from chapter 1 of "Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero."Slowly starting to wake up, I become aware. It's like coming out of a fog.Head hurts.Body hurts.There's a conversation in the room. This isn't my bed. Someone is touching my arm. I crack my eyes to look. She doesn't notice. Is she praying for me? Her hands do feel good…do feel... Slipping back unconscious, my eyes slowly close. I didn't notice the soft green glow under Jenn’s hands.*******************"It does look like he saved them or at least stalled them long enough for us to get there." says the man dressed more like a park ranger than an officer of the law. "I did think he was part of it at first" he continues "but the evidence shows he wasn't there and they were certainly fighting on that back road where we found them""I don't care who he is." says a woman as she enters the room. "He saved and protected my Jenn. I will make sure there's not a mark or a scar on him before he leaves". As she continues the few steps over to the men speaking, even though dressed simply in common clothes, there is no doubt the race of elves is in her heritage. The grace and lines of her form. The elegance and lightness of her step. She glances at her daughter, still watching over the young man in the bed. "Do we know who he is yet?" she asks no one in particular."Not yet dear" a man in a white coat responds. A handsome middle-aged man. Fit, but not that of a fighter or ranger. "I asked Talon to bring another identification stone with him. I was hoping ours was just broke, but it's reading the same.""What do you think is wrong?" Talon asks."I'm thinking we just have to wait until he recovers. I have heard of cases where the stone didn't work. Powerful spells can hide or wipe a person clean. I doubt he's a spy or a criminal. Spells like that are just too high level if, they're used at all. My best guess is, there is just some disconnect with him being unconscious. When he wakes, we can ask him or use the stone again then."I find myself waking up in a hospital bed. The attending Doctor finds it odd that he cannot identify my class. An Officer says I’m a Hero for saving a girl from being kidnapped, but he’s asking too many questions for my liking. I know an accusing tone when I hear it. I don’t remember any of it and I need to find my way home.Author’s notes. Original work. First draft and update of chapters 1-16. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. Almost fifty chapters are completed as I pen this introduction. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. The tentative release schedule will be once a week. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6

They are not a focus by any means. When writing the story of about the viewpoint of a Healer, certain details such as wounds and blood will be written in some detail.
