《The Unorthodox Tale of Sky》Chapter 2 For the First Time I'm Running for My Life
Advertisement
So how was the first chapter? Did everyone find it interesting enough to say “hey I wanna read the next chapter”? Just a heads up, I’m going to show no mercy in the deaths of characters and random people. The gore will be explained. In detail. So those with an active imagination, weelllll have fun!!!
Chapter 2
-Me…. (woot)-
“I believe you already know the answer to that”
I gulped. Yup. I gulped and said with a slight hope I was misunderstanding “Would that be the weird tail people have behind them?”
Sigh, the next scene was definitely what told me that I was indeed correct.
“Might I ask what is so important that you would talk in the middle of the class?” Mr. Professor asked.
“……”
I heard her say something but I couldn’t quite make it out, but I guess I didn’t need to because in the next moment the professors head exploded. Yup, you heard right. His head exploded into tiny little chunks that flew everywhere. The brain matter, pieces of skull, and blood splash on the front row students faces as if a famous artist was magnificently painting an abstract painting. In place of the prof’s head? A fist of one of the male students. One would call him a jock.
About four students screamed, two passed out, and one decided to get up… me… The rest of the students turned towards the other students with gazes of a predator finally catching its prey. The chick behind me? I decked her in the face and sprinted out the door. No way in hell am I staying for that death game.
As I was sprinting I decided to look back. You know, the thing you’re never supposed to do when running away? Yeeeeaaah I know why they say that now. I was being chased by about 40 students. Wait… are they?? Yup they’re running on the walls and…CEILING???? Seriously? Are you guys spiders or something? You’re supposed to be freakin humans!!! The hell are you doing on the ceiling!! The walls would be somewhat possible, but the ceiling?!? Ah, shit I went upstairs. Nothing good ever happens when you go upstairs. Guess what? I was right. The moment I reached the top one of those weird humans was waiting for me and threw a fist at my face. That’ll definitely kill me, so with rapid succession I grabbed his wrist with my left hand and with my right I pushed my hand up under his arm at the armpit, pushed my foot through his leg and tossed him down the stairs and continued to run.

Thank you Lord for making this building so freakin big, as I ran I was able to find a room to hide in after losing them from some turns and corners I never even knew about. Well I haven’t been to the second floor in the two years I’ve been here.
“Hey what are you doing in here? Students need to be on the first floor unless with a professor”
Right that was why. You can’t go to the second floor because it’s essentially the experimental floor. Meh whatever, I ain’t gonna die because of some stupid rule.
“Sorry but there are some people with blue tails sticking out of their bodies trying to kill me so you know, gotta find a place to hide.” I said with my back to him. Big mistake. Cliché much?
“Blue tails huh? Looks like we’re mobilizing then” he said and started to approach me. Slowly I might add.
Dude, why slowly? You know If ya wanna kill someone ya gotta do it fast. Don’t give them the opportunity to escape. That’s just asking for trouble you know? “Bye!!” I shouted opened the door so fast I thought the hinges would break off and dash for my life once again. Well at least this time there’s only…. They multiplied? …… Is my luck really this bad? This time around there’s at least 100 of those creepy super human thingies. Whyyyyy-y-yy-yyy? It just had to be this school they decided to take over. Couldn’t you have just let me live my days lazily? No? Well up yours with a barb wired covered 2x4. Don’t like it? Too bad!!
While I’m running I sometimes pass by another student or teacher. When they see me running like a mad man they get this inquisitive look then explode. Yes, explode. You know, like their intestines fly one direction while their heart, lungs, and kidneys fly in another? Wait… is that shit? Dude!!!! That’s totally shit!! The guy exploded and shit literally flew all over the place!!! Dude totally had a shitty last moment. Enough of that, gotta run.
So now I’m working my way to the third floor. You see, going up is bad only when you don’t have a plan. I, however, do have a plan. These guys don’t seem to have a good sense of smell so as soon as I get past these stairs I’ll make a sharp turn, wait for the to leave, then proceed back downstairs and escape. Or, well, so I thought. When I was able to trick them somehow into passing me by, when I looked at the stairs there were at least four guards, maybe more. These guys, after all, can run on the ceiling, still can’t get over that, so I wouldn’t find it strange if they were hiding somewhere where I couldn’t see em.

Yeah let’s go with that. So that means I need to find another way out. Jumping’s out of the question. Passed that option coming to this floor. Soo I guess next would be to find a nice quiet room where no one should know or have access to… like the dean’s office. Yeah, let’s go there! I just hope the dean wasn’t taken over like these guys. Ooh, shiny floor map. How convenient.
I then proceed stealthily to the dean’s office, which, conveniently, is on this floor. Albeit the other side of the floor but still. I feel like going to that office is just better than going up, you know his doors are solid metal AND the hinges are super strong too! So that’ll at least stall em for me to think of a better plan.
“Found him!!!” said one of the blue tails. I ’ma just call em blue tails. Also, again, don’t announce your position away to your prey!!! It, again, gives them a chance to escape, like right now. I put myself into full gear and shoot off towards the dean’s office.
Ugh the pains. The lack of oxygen, my sore muscles, my heart hurts, ugh everything hurts. ‘Just stop’ a voice inside me says. Nope! I shan’t die today!!! Or so I hope. I ignore the pains and eventually reach the office. Without looking back I quickly open the door, enter, and slam it shut while also locking it. Dude… this door is ridiculous. Why does one guy need such a freakin heavy ass door. Seriously.
“crunch”
Hm? Didn’t I just hear something I wasn’t supposed to? Didn’t I just hear the bones of a human body being munched on like a late night snack?
“gulp”
And did that midnight snack go down the pipe of some gigantic creature? I think to myself and slowly turn around…
“You know what they say, out of the frying pan” I chuckle a bit “aaand into the fire” I sigh….
-Them-
Kicked off their own planet they had only one choice. Become the most detested life form in order to survive. Become a parasite. They had to move from planet to planet searching for a place to live, not feed. But, all they found were, as expected, hostile inhabitants which eventually led to the inhabitant’s extermination and sacrifices. The already small population was decreased more and more at every planet. Hope of their survival slowly decayed. Eventually their race numbered less than a thousand. They found a planet thinking this was the one. The queen had found a possible mate from this planet. However, when she revealed who she was to the one she was supposed to trust, it took a turn for the worse. The inhabitants of the planet discovered who they are and how to kill them. A mass genocide hunt started. This hunt left them with less than four hundred. 572 members of the race were found and killed. The queen amongst them.
They quickly left so that they were not completely exterminated, but their number were so small that their survival chance was next to zero. Then luck hit them. They found a blue planet. A blue planet with an arrogant and ignorant race. The race? Humanity.
So? What did you guys think? Were you able to feel the rush? Were you able to feel his sense of "my life is in danger"? Please do tell. The good and the bad please, also , no mercy please. I won't be able to make an amazing story if I don't get any good feedback/criticism. Also thanks for reading this far!!!

Shura Saga: Burn and Slay - Cultivation, Lightning Bolts, Monsters galore
“If it lives, we can slay it. And then burn it, just to make sure it doesn’t come back from the dead,” she said. “...does that happen often?” he asked. “Slaying? Yeah, duh? It’s what we're here to do in the first place, dummy.” “I meant the coming back from the dead part.” “Eh. More often than you’d like.” “Great. Just great.” Walking away from a life drenched in senseless bloodshed, Raksha embarks on the Warrior’s Pilgrimage. In doing so, he strives to hone his mind, spirit, and martial skills, and he swears to abide by the Ancient Code’s tenets of honor and compassion. He definitely did not expect to run into Sadea, a powerful sorceress who loves silk, jewels, and killing things for fun and profit. Neither did he expect to be stuck with her as they fight murderous mutants, vicious monsters, and demons. She calls their entanglement a beautiful partnership, but it’s the last thing he needs. Or so he thinks.

Reincarnated As A Benevolent Tyrant
NOTICE: This story is under rewrite. New novel has been published. Search **RE: Tyranny** in Royalroad for the new novel.Link- Re: Tyranny Thank You! ------------------------ "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." What a brilliant line, isn't it? James was a boy who had nothing to worry about. A happy family, a nice childhood. What's more to ask? But one day, everything changed. He lost everything in the blink of an eye. The only thing left for him were the memories and dreams of the past. Trying to cope up with the loss, he cut all ties with the outside world and became a shut-in, having no one left to call his own or to rely upon. There was nothing left for him in this world, but still he lived and soon found a purpose in his life, which lead him to create something that could change the world.And on the very day when his dream project was about to come to the light, he lost his life, trying to save a little girl from an unfortunate accident. "Will I ever be remembered...? I wish... someone would." These were the last word James mumbled before his conscious faded into darkness. But his life didn't end there, as he is transmigrated into the body of an arrogant, worthless Duke's son in some unknown land with no memories about who is or any idea about where he is. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Duke's son is forced to prove his worth for inheriting the title. Will he be able to accept the new reality and prove himself by leading this country into a prosperous future? Or will he cease to the pressure of his past and lose everything once more? Disclaimer: This is not a power-fantasy or a 'feel-good' story. If you feel a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises because of difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you. It is a story that delves deep into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that make me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality. Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but I guarantee you it will get there. For those who want to skip the slow part, start from Chapter - 35 (Beginning of The End) (The whole Disclaimer section is copied from Aorii as I am too busy writing the complete story.) And yes, just for General Knowledge, James will become OP throughout the story. He is not some legendary guy who will pull out Excalibur & conquer the entire world. Update Schedule - One chapter a day. This novel is also available on Scribble Hub. And again, I humbly thank you for reading it. I hope you stick throughout the journey.
