《Captured》Prologue
Advertisement
I was staring at the one-way window in my cell at my reflection. As always, I was stuck in the plain white straight jacket with multiple chains confining me to the back of the cell. Suddenly they got tight and pulled me violently to the wall to where I couldn’t move. The door to my cell hissed as it unlocked and two guards with large guns walked in. A man in a white coat ordered one of the guards to take off my muzzle.
I started to smile wide as he got a ladder and propped it up next to me. He began to unhook the muzzle and I jerked my head towards him. The muzzle flew off and he fell backwards off the ladder. I laughed, and then was surprised at how deep my voice had gotten, it even scared me a bit at first. The man smiled a bit and I growled "What are you smiling at glasses? What's so funny?"
The man fixed his rectangular glasses and cleared his throat "I'm here to ask you about your pre-lab life." He sat down on a chair that one of the guards got for him as he got out his pen and started writing on a sheet of paper. "You know why you're here right? It's because you and your sister were exceptionally stronger than the others of your race. You are here to make your pitiful lives into something better, all you have to do is listen to us and become our weapons." He smiled slyly as he looked up at me.
"As if, I won't listen to the shit you gotta say," I rolled my eyes, I noticed one of the guards got close to my leg and he tazes me. "ALRIGHT FINE!!" I cuss the guard out and threaten him under my breath. I sigh as I look at the man, he was smiling, and it pissed me off. I growled as I reluctantly started to recall what life was like before the lab.

"It's a beautiful day outside the cave, at least, I think. Mom and Dad won’t let me and Natalia outside yet. They say we are still too young and that we must be at least ten years old. Natalia will be ten in one month, but she said she would wait for me to get older before she goes. Natalia and I were playing around in our wendigo forms as dad watched us. "You two better not get hurt, the last thing I need is your mother yelling at me because one of you tripped." He chuckles and pats my head.
"Okie Dokie dad!" I yell and he winces "You're a little loud their buddy," he sighs, and I giggle. "Nat-Naaaat!!" I yell again as I chase Natalia around the small cave. Next thing I knew I had run into moms’ leg. I slowly looked up at her and she sighed as she pats my head. "Bishop, you need to look where you're going sweetheart, you may get hurt." Dad stood up and walked over to us "Hello dear, and deer," he says as he looks at the deer carcass in moms' arms.
"Yep, I got food," Natalia and I perked up as we both clung to moms’ legs, drooling, and staring at the deer. "foooooood..." She sighs and places the deer on the ground. Immediately Natalia and I speed to the carcass and start tearing at the flesh. It was still warm and fresh, and each time we bite and tear the skin blood soaked the stone floor. Natalia and I fought over the organs as we finally tore through the skin and muscle. We finally decided on what we would eat and share, then after about ten minutes we were filled. Both of us laid on the bloody ground and patted our full bellies, we sighed in relief as we passed out next to each other.”

I growled as my head pounded and my nose bled, making the pure white floor and jacket red. The man sighs and grabs a tissue out of his pocket "Your sister had the same reaction," He stood up on the ladder and moved my long black hair out of my face as he wiped the blood away. "I suppose we shall stop here for the day, I will be returning tomorrow Mr. Bishop," he said as he grabbed the clipboard and headed out the door. The guards grabbed the step ladder and the chair then walked out the room.
The door hissed as it locked again and the chains loosened me from the wall "Idiots, they forgot the mask." I say as I slide down the wall and sigh, closing my eyes and slowly falling asleep.

Azarinth Healer
A new world with nearly unlimited possibilities. A status, classes, magic and monsters. Sounds good? Well, for Ilea it didn't come quite as expected as for some other protagonists, nor was there a king or god to welcome her. The grand quest? Well, she might figure that out someday but for now, a new world with new food is prize enough. Her fists at the ready, she's prepared to punch and get punched, however long it takes and however many limbs she might have to regrow. A story I've started writing now quite a while ago. Transported to another world, somewhat standard fantasy setting with my beginner attempts to make it dark but funny. There are Litrpg elements here but I do hope it's not too heavy and annoying. The fights should be interesting and aren't just numbers vs numbers. Contrary to the title the protagonist will be quite an offensive fighter. Ilea Spears is your average sarcastic kick-boxing fast food worker and soon to be student. She will be transported to another world rather conventionally and will be confronted with survival in the wild. Give it a shot and let me know what you think. My experience is incredibly lacking. If you find yourself hating it early on, do convey your anger in a detailed comment or review :) I want to get better but without any feedback it's simply quite difficult. Quick heads up: Around chapter 120 there are a bunch of longer PoV changes that I discontinued again shortly after. The Arc around chapters 150-200 is darker than the rest and the themes shift quite a bit. Just know that it goes back to what you've come to know after that section. Thank you for reading. Quick update June 2019: Many complaints regarding the formatting, specifically spacing in conversations and of course the usage of the present tense in the first 36 chapters have been addressed. I'm of course learning by the day but compared to how it was before it should be an improvement at least. Chapters usually around 3k words Cover art by Kevin Catalan
