《Rise of the Henchman》Chapter: 8 Surveillance
Advertisement
It’s been a few weeks since the courthouse incident and I'm still not ready to get back to do my normal job. Currently my job is to scout out our next target, Claud’s Software. The goal is to steal some technology for a rival tech group. I am somewhat familiar with the area is because I got Jet to show me around, but I kinda regret it because I learned she is really into fitness. I asked her to show me the town since I’m new and let her show me the way, and it turned into a tour of the fitness related places, It kinda ruins my image of her because on the tour the only thing that she really talked about was fitness related, I have some hope that things might workout but I’ve really become disillusioned with her.
I’m passing by the building while taking note that their security is really tight. The reception area is filled with security and they seem really competent or at least really attentive. What I mean is normally they are moderately fit but all these security members are clearly not the norm. Continuing my walk, I enter the park were I pull up the software companies information. Looking through it I found that they hired Zeno Corps Protection Agency but aside from that nothing abnormal comes up. Apparently they hire ex-military, however I’m not convinced that that is all that there is to it.
I call in to report this to Claymore and he says he will look into this. With this done I decide to walk around the city a bit more because my last stroll was a real disappointment. When I went to the mall, I was near the food court area and heard some obnoxious laughter. Turning to look at the people making the ruckus, what I see are a man and a woman laughing at a man on the ground holding onto his groin. From what I could make out the guy was struck in the groin from a swift kick from his girlfriend. And the woman's voice sounds familiar so I take a picture and do a cross reference of her face finding out that she is Yellow. So by process of elimination the guy she is laughing with is Black. Out of curiousity I decided to tail them for a little bit to see if I can find something out about them.

After a few hours I gave up on tailing them and learned a few things. First that the guy that got hurt was dating Pink, but she ended things with him because he was fooling around. Second, Black and Yellow are dating and they have an explosive relationship. They would argue and make-out every five minutes. This could be useful but I don’t have confidence in properly using this info because I’ve never dealt with such a volatile relationship before. And third I’ve found out that they are being trained by a “Mr. Zord.” After doing a brief search I couldn’t find anything about this person and finally relayed all this to Claymore as well.
I think I really found out things I did not want to.

Modern Age Online Book 1
(Book Two on Amazon here) (Book Three on Amazon Here) Both books should be available through Kindle Unlimited. It is the Future. The realm of online video game entertainment has grown, creating vast and wonderous worlds for people to explore and enjoy. This is the story of Kaleb, a young gamer, and his adventures in the latest Super-Hero Virtual reality MMO: Modern Age Online. Join him as he takes on villains (both player and NPC), joins forces with other player heroes, and even deals with some of the bureaucracy of being a hero in a perfect virtual recreation of the world. No cheats, no guides, just one newbie Super-Hero against the forces of villainy in his new virtual home. Notes: 1.) While not my first time writing, this is my first time throwing anything I've written at the tender mercies of the internet. All criticisms welcome. 2.) Just to inform people early: There is no evil corporation looking to control the world with VR, there is no Krueger-esque "if you die in the game, you die for real.", and this isn't a story of some OP harem-loving god of the system. Nothing wrong with those stories this just isn't one. This is a simple story about a guy playing a game and finally 3.) This story is extremely rough, i did very little editing, this is just me gauging interest really. oh, and English is my 1st language, if for some reason you find that important. Note 2) from now on Book 1 will exist in its entirety on Royal Road while Books 2 and 3 (and any others) will be released on Amazon. I want to thank everyone who has been reading and has taken this weird journey with me. I will continue to write in my spare time and will always be thankful to Royal Road for giving me a space to be creative. Thank you to everyone.

Re-Re:Hammer
Your average Reborn Game System story, similar to The Gamer and Solo Leveling. Written for fun rather than novilization like the others, so it is smaller and less intense. It is set in an AU Warhammer based on a slightly modified version of Warhammer Fantasy's End Times.. So you might notice names and events but don't expect it all to go the same way. And the Main Character is not the only Player in this game~ I'm kind of a catastrophe when it comes to ethic and drive. So don't be alarmed if there isnt an update for a week or three. Or if there is three updates at once. It's a rewrite of the Rehammer that is around, which means the start is mostly the same with some small changes. Chapter 15 is the first fully new chapter of the book. though Chapter 14 has a large addition. You effectively can skip to that and not missing anything major if you read the old one, if you don't wanna rewrite.

Falling Through the Cracks
After falling through a rather unexpected crack in the universe that spawned under his bed, Alex finds himself in a world filled with monsters and magic. Now instead of worrying about SATs and college applications, he only has demons, magic and rips though the very fabric of the universe to occupy his mind. Quite a bit easier in his opinion. This story has abuse, trama and brushes breifly on suicide. I`ll try to include warnings on chapters that deal heavily in any of those. I’m also a very new writer, so please let me know of any mistakes you see! Updates Mondays and Thursdays Image credit: Credit: NASA, JPL-Caltech/S.
