Advertisement
When you were young...your parents told you about the story of a being that came after those who were naughty and misbehaved...a monster that could come out from under your bed or from your closet...A monster known as…
March 20, Sun City
The story began on a windy night...in a normal house, located in a normal neighborhood...a normal family dinner…on that night, a small action caused a huge problem…
(CCCRRRAASSHHHH)
“I don’t want it...I hate vegetables…” A little girl threw her plate to the floor causing a big mess. The vegetables, the meat and the mashed potatoes splatter all over the ground.
“Lucia...what have you done?” Her father raises his voice as he sees her actions. Her mother stands up and says; “Why did you throw your plate on the ground Lucia?”
Lucia Romero (Age 8), a young girl with brown hair, white skin and brownish eyes. She is the daughter of a man who works at Sun City’s International Bank.
Mr. and Mrs. Romero are a couple who work for the Sun City International Bank. He has white skin and short brown hair with brownish eyes. She has brown skin, black hair and bluish eyes. Both of them are in their mid-thirties meaning that they are young.
Lucia points at a boy who is sitting in front of them; “Luis told me that vegetables were bad and that I would be poisoned…”
Luis immediately stands up and screams; “Did not...you liar…”
Luis Romero (Age 10) a young boy with black hair, dark skin and bluish eyes. He like to play pranks to his younger sister.
“But you did...and you told me that I needed to throw the plate or they would come back to live…” Lucia says as she begins to cry. Luis throws a brocoli to her as he exclaims; “I did not say that, you liar... “
“ENOUGH BOTH OF YOU!” Mr. Romero says as he stands up and slams the table, he continues to speak; “Luis and Lucia...you have been very bad tonight and that’s why, there won’t be desert…”
“Aww...Mama…” Both of the children look at their mother. Mrs. Romero begins to say; “You two, go to your rooms now…”
“Oh man…” Luis says as he and his sister begin to walk out of the kitchen and head to their bedrooms that are on the second floor. As they walk, Luis begins to say; “Lucia, you have been bad...that means that El Coco is going to come for you…”

“El Coco?” Lucia asks nervously. Luis begins to chuckle; “That’s right...El Coco or the Boogeyman, they say that he enters the rooms of the kids who were naughty and he takes them to his hideout and then...EATS THEM!”
“WWWAAHHHH” Lucia screams, Luis begins to laugh. Mrs. Romero begins to scream from downstairs; “Luis, stop scaring your little sister.”
“Yes mom…” Luis says as he looks at Lucia and whispers; “Be prepared for the Boogeyman…”
That night, the parents had a reunion with Darius Lucifugus...so they hired a babysitter...a teenager named Corina...a blonde girl with green eyes…
“I will take care of them okay...have fun…” Corina says to the couple who was leaving the house, Mr. Romero looks at her with a smile and says; “I’ll be back and discuss your payment…”
Corina licks her lips and says; “Very well, I’ll be waiting…”
“Ms. Corina? Is the Boogeyman real?” Lucia asks Corina, Corina slaps her and says; “Of course he is...and he will come and get you if you keep bothering me…”
“Hey...what do you do to my sister…” Luis exclaims, Corina slaps him as well and screams; “Both of you go to your rooms now!”
Lucia and Luis went up to their rooms crying. Corina begins to laugh; “The Boogeyman? Ha...that's just a story of parents who want to scare their children. As she walks to the kitchen she hears a voice that said:
“You have been naughty...hahaha”
“Hello?” Corina looks around but sees no one, she thinks it’s a prank from Luis. She grabs her phone and begins to chat with her friends without noticing that the closet door was opened and red eyes were looking at her.
About one hour later, the children are in their bedrooms, Lucia is asleep and Luis is playing video games under his sheets. Corina chats with her friends, speaks through the phone and watches television like any other teen.
Suddenly, the lights of the house went off, Corina who was talking on the phone began to say; “Hold on...something is wrong…” Corina hangs up and walks to the kitchen, she tries to turn on the lights but there is no electricity, she tries to speak with her phone but there is no signal. Corina hears the noises of a branch hitting the window.

The night is very windy. She grabs a flashlight and turns it on, and she begins to look around the house. Suddenly, she sees the silhouette of a kid running past her and entering the closet located near the living room.
“Hey, Luis, are you playing a prank?” Corina says angry, she only hears a kid laughing...she slowly walks towards the closet...there is no sound at the house and the wind sound gets louder. She approaches the closet and calls once again; “Luis, come out of the closet Now!”
Corina, who was trembling, opens the closet very quickly and points the flashlight at the closet. There was no one there, Corina sighs feeling relieved, she hears another noise and turns around. At that moment, a figure appears behind her, Corina feels it and turns around pointing her flashlight.
She sees a creature that is taller than her with yellow eyes, claws and large pointy teeth. Corina immediately tries to get away but the creature grabs her, covers her mouth and pulls her into the closet, closing the door.
(GGYYYAAAHHHH)
Corina screams and hits the door. After a few moments, blood begins to come out underneath the closet. Luis, who was playing video games, notices that his internet connection is off. He slowly got out of his bed and looked around and noticed that there was no light.
He slowly goes downstairs screaming; “Corina, there is no light...I need the internet now…” He looks for her but she is nowhere to be found. Luis notices the blood on the closet and that door was open. He gets scared and begins to tremble, he slowly walks towards the closet and looks at the flashlight.
He grabs it and points it at the closet but there is no one there. He sees the trail of blood going upstairs where he just came from. Luis begins to think; “Lucia…” Luis begins to run towards her bedroom, as he runs he hears sister screaming:
“GGYYAAAHHHH LLLUUUIISSSS!”
“LLLLUUCCCIIAAAAA” Luis opens the door and sees it. He opens his eyes wider as he paralyzed upon seeing a hooded being, the being is very tall that its head almost reaches the ceiling. The monster is wearing a black torned-up cape with a hood.
“It’s the Boogeyman…” Luis says as he wets himself out of fear. The Boogeyman turns around, Luis sees that the Boogeyman is holding an unconscious Lucia.
“LLLUUCCIIIAAA” The Boogeyman heads to the closet. Luis is too frightened to move, the Boogeyman looks at him and laughs:
“Don’t worry...you are next...I will not take you today because I am already full…” The Boogeyman throws a bracelet that belonged to Corina, the bracelet is covered in blood. Luis begins to cry as he sees Lucia get taken by the monster. The monster makes a small cut on his hand with manna as he says;
“You have been marked...be prepared, my dinner…”
Luis is about to lose consciousness as he only says; “Lucia…”
Mr. and Mrs. Romero arrived later that night and saw the trail of blood...they saw their child unconscious and the babysitter was nowhere to be found...They immediately called the police and the ambulance...The neighbors were only looking at the house as they got Luis out on a bed…
A young man passing by noticed and used the opportunity to seek an adventure...but it’s not who you are thinking…
“Did you hear? There was a murder in that house…” A neighbor says to another. The other replies; “Yeah, I heard a loud scream...they said that the girl was not found…do you think there is a mass murderer here?”
A young man overhears it and immediately uses the opportunity to slip through the police. He is a young man who is nerd-looking, has long hair, glasses and he is wearing an anime robe (similar to Kirito).
Luis slowly regains consciousness, the police officer immediately asks; “Who did this son?”
As they lift him to the ambulance, Luis whispers; “The Boogeyman…he took Lucia and he is going to get me...”
The young man who overheard smiles as he said; “Another victim...perfect…”
This was the beginning of our frightening story...HISTOREA will have a new case…

Divine Progress
Progress is a dubious god. After failing him, three people are banished from modern times and sent to another world.

Branded as a demon, he must fight for survival while battling the servants of the god who sent him there, struggling against the 'gift' that Progress bestowed upon him and the past he sought to abandon. Can he make his way across the lands and gather enough strength to survive without the blessings of the Divine? Or will the gods bend him to their will, breaking him if he seeks to resist?

The Records of Eternity: The Traveller of Worlds
There probably won't be anything much for Traveller for the next while as I honestly don't have much of an idea of what the hell I plan on doing. While I wait for another spark of genius for this I want to get out some chapters for my other works, which I do have an idea of where I want to go. So instead of stressing myself out over this bottleneck, I will be focusing on other stories until I breakthrough. The Traveller of Worlds is a tale that tells the adventure of the young Saxon girl Millie Von Augustine, though she has another name. Millie is the eldest child of the Augustine family, a noble family in the Kingdom of Saxony. Although being a woman she was barred from succeeding her father as head of the family. In addition, she has been treated rather poorly by most of her family due to her tomboyish personality. But one day as a youth, she met someone in the woods behind her house, and this encounter would forever change her fate. Moving this to have a new chapter at a minimum of every three weeks as I have started another project full time. The cover artwork was made by Nez Illust, check their page for more their stuff. You can find more information on the universe of The Records of Eternity at https://recordsofeternity.wordpress.com/ I will also be posting any updates on how things will proceed and random other thoughts pertaining to the series on my website.
