《The American Heist》Open Secrets

"Jack over here!" Someone yelled as Jack walked into the underground fight club. Jack started looking around to find the orgin of the voice that called out to him, but Jack couldn't find it and soon noticed someone. Jack saw a figure staring at him from across the room, without hesitation he retured the gaze and started walking towards the individual. As Jack got closer to the figure, both of them reached behind them to grab whatever weapons they carried. But before Jack could confront the figure, a hand was on his chest holding him back and the stranger. "Jack I was calling you since you came in, didn't realize you wanted to pick your own fight. Jack I want you to meet John, John I want you t-" Before Tyson could finish speaking John stood up and got up close to Jack's face. "So you're the one that's responsible for what happed in Caracuss." John said with a neutral face and a monotone voice. "You know you're on everybody's shit list right?" John said as he placed his hand on the side of his hip. Jack noticed John's movment and made a fist as tight as he could and moved his torso so that way it would be easier to land a punch and avoid taking any unwanted hits.
"Relax hotshot."John said as he reached into his back pocket to pull out a green chip. Jack simply stared in disbelief. He could't believe that he's finally meeting someone that's richer than the top one percent. "How the hell did you remove your chip off the back of your hand?" Jack blurted out before he gather his thoughts. "Having money and power can help you get whatever you desire." John said he held out his hand to offer Jack the oppurtunity to look at his chip. Jack simply stared at the chip and then back to John.

"Whatever" Jack said in a cold voice and turned to look at Tyson. "Who's ass am I going to have too kick to get you in on this job?" Jack said whilst shoving Tyson's arm away from him. "You've got a job that needs help?" John said before Tyson could respond. "Yeah, but I don't need your help, I need Tyson's." Jack said with a raised voice and scowl on his face. "Guy's cool it!" Tyson said as he once again got in between both of them. "Jack, he could finance what we need so that way we won't have to steal anything and not bring any heat to us." Tyson said a quietly as he could but loud enough for Jack to hear.
"Fine, if you want to be part of this job, you will need to carry your own weight. The last thing we need is some egomaniac to ruin this whole thing." Jack said with a threating voice. "I can keep up if that's what you're worried about." John said as he looked Jack right in the eye's. " Don't think for a second that I will save your ass, if you fall behind, you will be left behind." Jack said with a strange but calm voice. "Here take this." Jack held out his hand and in it was his plane ticket. "Go to Missiouri and go to this location. it's a safehouse and out meeting point before we do this job." Jack said and turned around to walk away from Tyson and John.
As Jack got closer to the ring, he looked up above the ring and saw two seprate name tags being randomized. Tyson soon caught up to Jack and asked Jack what that whole interaction was about couple minutes ago. "John is an unknown element, I don't like brining on people that I don't know." Jack said as he watched the name tags flicker a breakneck speed. "He can finance what we need and potentially make the job easier."Tyson said as he joined Jack to look up at the flickering name's that are changing every milisecond. " Trust him or not, we need him." Tyson said. "To have somebody richer than the one percent backing you up on this job is unheard of." Tyson said. Jack decided to ignore what Tyson said and took a deep breath. "So who's my fight?" Jack said in a monotone voice. "Devin" Tyson responded. "If you want my help, I want to know you can atleast handle fighting your own devil." Tyson said as he folded his arms and allowed a smirk to grow on his face.

"If you want an easier fight let me know, I can fix the fight in your favor." Tyson said with grin and a condescending tone. "I got this" Jack said before he left Tyson alone and to step up to the gate of the ring. "Hey what's wrong with you stupid" one of the crewmember's said. "You're not on the roster for this hour." Another crewmember said. "Relax guy's" Tyson said with a laid back tone. "He's our main event tonight. Jack versus Devin." Tyson said? "If these to gentlemen want to step into the ring to knock each other out early, why should we stop them." Tyson said with a serious face. "Alright boss" a crewmember said before climbing up onto the edge of a platform to open the gate the led into the area. "You're going to need all the luck you have tonight." Tyson said before walking away from the cage and over to the bar. Jack simply once again ignored what Tyson said and started disrobing himself until he was just wearing his briefs.
"You ready?" the referee said to Jack. Jack simply adapted to a fight stance and the referee soon asked his opponet that same thing. Devin soon brought his arms up and Jack noticed that he had put on quite some mussle. "Shit, Tyson wasen't joking. I will need to be lucky." Jack thought to himself. Next thing Jack knew was the bell had rung and Devin was running right towards Jack with the intent to kill.

8 182MARY: The Dreadful
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] "You have to survive, Adam. You have to win." This is not a story starring Mary, because Mary is already dead. She bled out on her front doorstep following a sudden three-day absence. Seven years have passed, with her little brother—Adam—now standing at eighteen years of age. Following his sister's death, he lived the life of a delinquent, wandering the grimy streets of the city of Steeldale. All it amounted to was years of street fighting experience, no proper home and an uncertain future at a second-rate university. Unbeknowst to him, the day before university, he will be thrust from Steeldale into a brand new world. It is a world where a cherry red sky gazes down upon a fragmented continent, on which civilisations from other worlds have been dumped like refuse. The souls of man leak from their fingertips, coalescencing into superhuman powers and horrible fleshy monstrosities. Tribes of refugees clash against each other, attempting to carve out a place in this unrefined space. With no choice, Adam must traverse this dangerous new world, with Mary's shadow following him every step of the way. This is my entry to the April 2021 Writathon. Chapters will be posted as I write them.
8 212God Slaying System
Issac was known to be one of the strongest players of Blue Sky City. During the initial stages of the start of The Heavenly Domain, he had already gained a lot of power and was going to become even stronger then the guild leader. But, he was betrayed by the guild leader as he feared he would be more powerful then himself and was killed until he got back to level 0. Heck, they even stripped him of his 'Sword of Heroes' that he got from completing the Diamond Ranked quest and took it away. After all that, he was banished from the guild left with nothing. Now, he could not even compete for being strong as he was. That was the time he found the God Slayer Temple. After this encounter, he was no longer the same as before. The main point is that I got the inspiration to write this novel by reading the novel “Reincarnation of The Strongest Sword God”. So, you may find some minor similarities but, well the story is completely different and the ideas are mine. So, enjoy reading my novel. This novel is also available on Webnovel under the same name. The updates on the novel are a bit faster there.

8 97Vampire Midas AU
An alternate timeline to my main AU's story.Taking an unintended detour while trying to get back to Fortnite island doesn't end well for Midas and his soon-to-be boyfriend Agent Jones, also known as Jonesy. A confrontation with vampires leaves the mastermind bitten and eventually starting to undergo his decent into vampirism.He struggles to hide it from his family, clashing with the bloodlusting monster deep inside him. Can he resist his hunger and keep it contained? Or will he lose control and let the truth escape?------Happy Halloween y'all. Well, I'm HOPING I can get all these parts done before Halloween is over. I suppose we'll wait and see I guess.But yeah I thought of this last minute and wanted to give y'all somethin' spooky to read for the spooky month. (I dunno if it's spooky but eh)I had a big brain idea for a third Oneshot on vampire Midas, but decided to instead give him an AU of his own. This will not be a long story as I'm hoping it won't have too many chapters, but the chapters themselves will be very long.This is an alternate timeline to my main AU's story. And yes Midas and Jones are still gay for each other in this timeline. That hasn't changed 😂One other thing, this AU is probably gonna be more on the smutty side, so if that ain't your thing maybe don't read this.Anyway enjoy a bloodsucking gold boi and his golden haired boyfriend
