Because he comes back early, Soseki helping around at his grandparent house and learn that both of grandpa and mom leaves early in the morning and go to the field, he decides to help them, if he can wake up early
After dinner, nothing special happened, he tries to make some book cabinet, it still not done, but by doing this he feels that his proficiency is raising up
He goes to sleep, his consciousness starts to fade,.............
When he wakes up, he thought he will be inside Velvet Room, but this time is different, the surrounding is green, with paper scattered around, forming a stair, each leads to a door, no rather than a door, it is more like a large open book
He hears the sound and turns around, where he sees a girl figure, but this figure is a little different than usual
".....Kyouka? but how?" Soseki says this, when he sees Izumi, she's looking back at Soseki and tears start to flow out from the corner of her eyes
Izumi right now is standing, not only standing she even walking toward Soseki, all of this while she's crying and tries to cover her face, and she starts to speak " *sob* sorry.... don't look at me .. for a while.... please" Says Kyouka
Soseki nods, even though Izumi still covering her face, after a moment, another figure comes out, it's Ogai
"Oh, it's punk" greet Soseki to Ogai, he replies him with "Is this the velvet room you two talking about!?", Soseki denies his words and says this is the first time they've been here either, he does this while try to cover Ogai vision to sees Izumi
After a while, Izumi starts to stand up and says "I'm fine now, let's explore the area!" she says this in a somewhat cheerful tones

Ogai doesn't realize her difference, follows her word, Sosei follow them from behind until he sees a book that piqued his interest
".....hey you two, that book has the creature on that boy's necks pictured it in" Soseki points his finger toward the book, the other two stops their movement and looking at the direction he points at
Spoiler: For helping illustrations
"....it's kinda cute" Says Izumi, she is smiling when says this
"yeah... from the way you explains before, i thought it will be another gruesome creature," Says Ogai
"..it is exactly as i explain it, so what do we do?" says Soseki, not even a second after he says this, Izumi already touches the book and got absorbed to inside it, she screams "whaaaaa?" Soseki in reflex grab her arm, and Ogai grab his body
Their action is futile, all three of them getting sucked inside the book again, but different from before, they wake up in a grassland
"urgh.. this again, oi you guys okay?" Says Soseki
"u...um I'm fine" Replies Izumi
"yes!" Replies Ogai... no there's a big lump on his head, he's definitely not fine
After Soseki says this, he walks toward Izumi and grabs her hand while trying to give her a piggyback ride, Izumi replies with "u..um Soseki-kun I'm fine, and i can move my legs here" she takes Soseki hand, says that and smile. Soseki replies her "ah... Sorry, my bad" and pulling her up
They walk for a while, on their journey, they find a flying pumpkin head, a fairy, flying jar with a head coming from it, and a horse with two horn
each one of them is defeated, both of Soseki and Izumi has two more information on their book, respectively Soseki get Jack-o-lantern, and pixie. While Izumi gets Agathion and Bicorn. Ogai looking jealously at both of them and protesting each time they get something new

In the middle of their walk, they see Hito, standing still in the middle of the field, around him there's a lot of gold coin. Ogai looking at this yell "Oi! Hito!! whatcha doin?"
Hito looking at them, laugh and says "hey!! look at this amount of money! i find treasure, Treasure!! who would've thought that there's a hidden treasure on this island!!"
Not long after he says this, black letters flying out from his body, Soseki and Izumi take a stance, Ogai try to greet him, but Soseki pulled him back
The same case with Ogai, the black letters absorb him and he turns into a creature, the creature starts to speak "MINE, MINE, MINE IT'S ALL MINE!!! YOU GUYS CAN ROT ON THIS ISLAND!! I TAKE ALL OF THIS AND LIVES A HAPPY LIFE IN CITY" and jumps at them
Soseki along with Izumi, at the same time, speak "Pixie/Agathion"
A small woman, with butterfly wing, and a jar with a head popping out, appear when they call their name, and they continue their word "Zio"
Two lightning comes down from a sky, hits the creature and burnt it black
the creature disappears, Hito figure can be seen, Hito? nods at them, disappear and gives a gold coin to them. alongside it a piece of paper flying to Izumi
".........huh!? it's over already?" Says Ogai
Confuses of what happens, the space distorted, and they wake up
Soseki take a looks at the clock, and it shows 00:48,.... can't understand a single thing about what happened, he starts to doze off, ...........
And he wakes up in the hammock again, he starts to walk and finds Izumi on the ground, on her back there's her wheelchair, Soseki asks her "....did you fall?" and tries to get her up, Izumi doesn't answer Soseki and just nods in silence
Her face clearly shows that she's not in the mood for a talk, Soseki put her back in her wheelchair, and takes some blue grass from her face and clothes,.... Izumi doesn't even retaliate or shows any sign of embarrassment.
When he tries to push her, Izumi speaks in a low voice ".....don't need" and starts to spins the wheel by herself. Soseki match their speed, and Izumi starts to talk again "........just go to the gazebo first, don't need to wait for me" with her head keeps looking down
Soseki ignores her words, and continues to walk beside her

The story follows the footsteps of Jack Geralt – a Royal Australian Regiment veteran who, along with his friends, is recalled into active duty in response to this event.

P.S #2: I am sure you noticed that the Cover Art is not mine. I simply chose from my collection of favorite Concept Arts. If whoever designed this art sees this, I thank you very much. Since I am doing everything myself and have to alternate between my work and writing, this is the best I could do. P.S#3: If there are any inconsistencies with what you know (for example, location’s names, recent world events and properties), please remember: This Story takes place in a fictional and alternate reality.

Dip$h!+s in Space
An eccentric comedy novel (that thinks it's a TV show) about space, and the Dipsh!+s that end up stranded in it. This hyper-self-aware comedy of stupid proportions, centers around Captain William T Lawg (no relation) and his adventures as a guy who managed to afford a refitted soft-top ice-cream truck, in space. Explore the universe with his trusty crew of valiant randos. Marley, the tech-bro, stoner spacebunny, who just wants to get away from his home world and the bullies it harbors. Duffy, the plump and sassy female mechanic, who has had every job in existence totaling far more years than possible. Roy, the frigging fabulous, flamboyant android, and former spy…or possibly current spy. (dun dun, daaaa!) And lastly, but certainly leastly, that other chick the captain keeps trying to bang. Ride with the crew of the notorious Tast-E-Chill, to a world of wonder that a lot of other space travelers have already been before, but probably not Lawg, so it's still exciting. This satirical joke on itself and every sci-fi trope ever to exist, will be sure to either thrill you or disappoint you, because COMEDY…IS…SUBJECTIVE! With a crew of 3-10 and an IQ of also probably 3-10, The captain putters along to uncharted lands, where history, loot, drama, innuendos of the sexual verity, and various Technicolor hoes shall surely be waiting, usually with some form of trap. Each season brings new and interesting crewmen, like: Menace: the adorable genderless frog-child-thing with the heart of gold and the dialogue vocabulary of a slightly trained parrot. Greg: the 8 foot tall, ancient, thermonuclear, semi-retired alien overlord who just wants to prove he still has a purpose…and also to rule the galaxy. Izzy: a 3rd generation, age-reversed reboot, accidental clone of her own mother/sister/older self, who happens to be Greg's daughter-in-law…and much, much more. Prepare yourself for shallow adventure, moderately-to high offensive dialogue, and overwhelmingly childish scenarios. Tag along as the crew battles, fierce enemies, lack of food and survival tape, and occasionally their own incompetence. Teen Romance, current politics, subtlety, dignity, this sucker has none of those, and it darn well knows it. Raise the sails and grab the rails as a bunch of dipsh!+s find themselves...IN SPACE. (Roll dramatic tapering credits, to royalty free trumpet music)

Luster
Growing up with her recently deceased mother’s addiction and her own struggles with gender identity, June Fujiwara was not a nice person. Gaining powers from nearly being murdered didn’t change that, and neither did becoming a mercenary to fund her transition. It took horrific manipulation, the resulting trauma, and the family that helped her through it all. Luster is a derivative work based on Worm by Wildbow (John C. McCrae) that begins prior to Worm and although it doesn't show straight away, the story is very AU.

Governments fell and chaos reigned. People were left to fend for themselves. Of course, that's not, like, a bad thing. Pollution is at an all time low which means no more global warming. And all that corrupt bureaucracy is gone now too. Which means all those evil people refusing to do something about our dying planet are gone. Plus, people got superpowers. Which is, you know, pretty sweet. Of course, they can't be normal superpowers, everything but the kitchen sink was thrown in after all. Caleb is immutable, unable to physically change in a world completely changed; Alex was granted a system that talks to her in cat puns, but also gives her power over all cats; Nathan met a god of impulse, who gave him powers because he felt like it; and June is given a power to make things lazy, something opposite to her personality. The four of them meet by chance while hunting monsters. They met by chance but must learn to work together when an empire from space lands on Earth with the intent to subjugate the surviving humans.
