"Ryota:Kazuki..?"
(Ryota hops off his bike and runs into the alleyway..Some girl takes Kazukis wallet and checks how much money is inside..)
"Girl:Damn..Only 5000 Yen..."
"Guy:Heh..This kid is broke as fuck.."
(The girl grabs a switchblade and grabs Kazuki by his collar..Ryotas expression chances and he clenches his fist..)

(Ryota walks in and sees Yuki in an apron and starts laughing..)
"Ryota:The hell are you wearing!?"

"Ryota:Excuse me..We came to visit Tatsuya Murakami.."
"???:Okay..You can go check on him for 15 minutes! He is in room 201.."
(They nodded and walked up the stairs and walked in the room..Tatsuya was hooked up to alot of machines..Ryota grabs his hand while Yuki and Mi sit down..)
"Ryota:You can survive this Suya..You can't give up! You are the commander of this gang and you can't give up! You are the most important person in my life.."
(Ryota squeezes his hand...It almost felt like he squeezed it too..Yuki gets up and walks to Suya and talks to him for a little bit..Then it was Mi's turn..They talked for 5 mins and after their time was up Mi kissed him on the head and they left..Ryota waved goodbye to Mi and Yuki..He checks his phone and sees he has 15 missed calls from Kyio..He presses on the call button and puts the phone next to his ear..)
"Ryota:Hey..You called me..?"
"Kyio:Yeah...I was wondering why you havn't answered any of my texts for 2 months.."
"Ryota:I've just been stressed..No worries though..I'm coming to your place..See ya.."
"Kyio:Oh Alright-"
(Ryota stops the call and gets on his bike..He puts the key in and thinks about doing one more stop before he goes to Kyios place...He rides to a temple where he used to go as a kid with Tatsuya...Ryota gets off the bike and walks to the temple and sits down and lights a candle...He puts his hand in his bag and takes out
one thousand origami cranes and ties them together with a string..)
"Ryota:I hope Suya gets better.."
(He hears someone else talking...Ryota stands up and peeks behind the corner..It was Uchida..)
"Uchida:I hope my brother is alright...I miss him alot.."
(Uchida looks at Ryota and his expression changes..He gets up and walks towards him with his hands in his pocket...)
"Uchida:You looking to get beaten up again..?"
"Ryota:Uhh no.."
(Ryota looks at him and looks at his jacket..)
"Ryota:Are you part of a gang..?"
"Uchida:Yeah?! I'm apart of the Liberation Front..You look like your in one too.."
"Ryota:Yeah..I'm in the Shadows of Carnage.."
"Uchida:Oh cool..Well I have to get going..I have a meeting in a few hours..."
(Uchida runs into the forest and dissapears in some fog..Ryota feels dizzy and hears a ping on his phone..It's from the gangs group chat..)
"Yuki:We have to meet up right now! The new commander is in the city, but has to leave tomorrow..Everyone meet at the temple ASAP!"
(He likes the message..Time passes and everyone arrives and waits for the new leader..Until a bike appears on the horizon and stops...A guy..About 169 cm..He gets off his bike and walks to the temple wearing sunglasses and a long jacket...He stands next to Yuki and slightly coughs..)
"???:Hello dickheads!? My name is Satoru Oda..And I am your new commander! And I am gonna make you fucks fight and behave better than Tatsuya did....I am fixing this gang and making it the greatest in the world!"
(Ryota thinks in his mind:The fuck is this guy thinking!?)

But due to unknown sabotage their plans are ruined and their organisation set back centuries in the many plans.

This is my own little star wars fantasy and wish fulfilment so don't come expecting overly complex plots and fully fleshed out galaxy. Hopefully I will be able to make this fun. Also I won't be decribing the species often, so you're going to have to look them up yourself. There are just too many to constantly be describing them beyond their garb.

Seven years have passed since that fateful night, and those paranormal events still haunt Odion.

However, his deepest fears rise to the surface when a list of grisly murders takes place the night of their high school dance, making Apollo a prime suspect. Knowing the police will be no match for him, Odion embarks on a mission to take his brother down—even if that means he dies trying. Apollo knows he’s innocent of the crimes that took place the night of the dance. But with virtually no way of clearing his name and nearly every task force unit in the province of Ontario searching for him, Apollo is forced to make a decision. Sacrifice his freedom for a heap of crimes he didn’t commit or defend his rights by unleashing the monster he had buried within, even if that means many innocent lives will be forfeited. The Monster Within is the first book in Marcel Jones’ urban fantasy series A Life of Fear.

After dying and making his way into the afterlife, our protagonist happens to have a stroke of good luck. With the help of the substitute god of death, he's given a second shot at life in a world run by gods who probably played too many video games as kids. Monsters, magic, dungeons, bandits, and all that good stuff is there, except it turns out to be much different than Jed initially expected.(I picked some generic tags since this is my first story and I am not 100% sure where it is going to go. Mature warning is only there for some less-than-polite language.)
