《Origin of Flames》19 Nature always wins
Advertisement
I chuckle in a daze and slow motions to push myself up, "I told you, you can't change nature." He snickers, "You are resilient for someone so small." I shake off the daze, huff and a flame engulfs my hands, "I'm not a meathead like you. Also, I'm proud of my streets I grew up on."

Ice engulfs him as he charges in, I duck and the air smacks against my air. I punch at his shoulder, a huge chunk of ice melts away and my fist hits bone. I pull away at the pain and he kicks me in the crotch. Then a one-two, the force of aluminum bats into my sides. I punch in with desperation, but he leans in and hugs me, "Pitiful!" A huge slam with his knee, it sinks into my gut. Again, the air escapes me. I stare at him in pure scorn, I can hear them. So many ghosts with regrets. I'll live for them and they'll live through me. Flames engulf my whole body and he roars in pain. As my eyes adjust, he jumps away and pats off the flames. His hands bleed bad, but his frost quickly stops it. He's patching himself up with ice? He roars, but Calico's thundering roar seems more important. I rush after her as Wendell shouts in pain.
I run in and find her hiding, bleeding from small bullet holes. Her almost human-like arms tremble with kitten in them. "Kid, take her." "Are you ok!?" She smiles with a dead look in her eyes. "No, no! You're going to survive!" She mewls, "They're coming with the storm." I sigh and take kitten, she snuggles up into my torn jacket. "Scale the wall, snow should break your fall. Run." I gulp and look upon it. Stairs lead up to them, Wendell shouts and fires wildly at me. I run away and up the stairs.

When I get up, there's an even worse blizzard cloud rolling in, behind me, a gunfight breaks out between the civilians and the Onyx Order's militia. I look down and make a jump. A jerk back by my hood, "There's no escape!" He throws me onto the wall and I fumble kitten out my coat. She cries as flames engulf me. New additions to his body, inhuman hand of ice. The frostbite travels up his arm like extra veins. "You don't have to do this!" He rushes in and throws a punch. "I'll kill you!" I step back and throw a punch into his face and he reels back. He punches me and I grab his throat. He screams as blood drips down my hand. I jump and back up. Whoa- What!? He takes a knee and ice envelops his neck. He should be bleeding out by his neck! His face scrunches up tight, his face turns tomato red as he gurgles out blood to a scream in a raspier tone, "Die you inhuman garbage!" Ice envelops him, he turns giant. I freeze in place at the sight. He's insane!
Calico pushes me out the way and I scream, "No!" I look over and there's a huge cavity in her body. I turn to him and rush in, He hammers down, but I'm willing to take that hit. "You killed her, damnit!" He screams as I grab his arm tight, it melts, burns and then he starts bleeding further. He pushes me and I slip off the wall, my fingers manage to grab the ledge. He holds an icicle out his severely burned palm, "Hope you freeze in hell!" Kitten leaps in and bites his hand. He screams and throws her into the snow. I look down and drop to get her. He's healing, "Mommy!" I yank her by the scruff as an army of animal screams draw ever closer. "We have to run!" I rush out into the snow as Wendell shoots large icicles at us. The blizzard smacks against us, I fall into the snow to keep a grip on her scruff. I shove her in my jacket and summon a flame, a large spider towers over us. Hundreds of them leap over or run around the light. I get up and trudge ahead, through the stampede. Kitten mewls loud through the snow, "Mommy!" I growl as panthers rush past, but then a bear walks up . It's eyes widen and mine do too. That's the bear that threw that car while chasing me. I glare at it as it walks up. I lower the flame and it brushes against me, as if it was a blessing. I nod and carry on. No government or militia can stop me, nature's on my side. For that blessing, I'll make sure to be everyone's light. I'll find a way to lift these deadly clouds above us.

City of Champions Online
Having found the tragic truth that an art degree is worth less than the paper it is printed on, Jacquelyn Jones is frustrated with her dead end work as a graphic designer for a marketing firm, finding new ways to try and convince people that this week's 50 cent off sale is actually worth driving to the store. She's tried other VRMMORPGs, but they've all been fantasy-based, with a couple sci-fi games thrown in. But she wants something more, something Super. Superhero VRMMOs have had a... subpar reception in the past, in part due to the fact that the nature of most MMOs makes for fairly unheroic tales. After the couple hundredth time blasting the same group of mooks from the same faction on the same street corner of the same city, using the same powerset as everyone else because you only have a few options, it is hard to think of yourself as a hero anymore. But then she heard about City of Champions Online. For the first time, a developer partnered with a tabletop RPG maker to use their system to create a VRMMORPG, and it was one of the systems designed to be used with superhero games! And despite the name, there was no getting stuck in the same city as all the other players. The game world was a detailed replica of the real world, down to having some of the same shops and restaurants in town. She could be whoever she wanted, whatever she wanted. Now, she just has to find a way to become the heroine she's always wanted to be.

The Dawn of Blood
As the saying goes, "Ignorance is bliss." That is a good way to describe us. We are constantly seeking to improve, to evolve. Coming up with laws and theories to better understand the world around us. But what if it was all for naught. What if what we think is truth is nothing more than the actions of higher beings, far beyond our reach. Upon the discovery of an entire new reality, remaining ignorant is certain death. The only way to live is to grow, to evolve, to adapt. This is my first novel so any feedback and criticism is greatly appreciated. I hope that I'm able to grow as a writer through this and hope that people enjoy my work. Credit for the cover image goes to Richard Luong. Check him out at https://tentaclesandteeth.deviantart.com.

An Extra-Ordinary Story about Ordinary People
In a different world, a different reality, where ordinary people occasionaly have extra-ordinary powers for no particular reason, we follow a number of characters, trying their best to live in this strange yet normal world. We have our first character, a currently nameless but sentinent creature who happened to find himself in the body of a strange fungus after an unknown incident that robbed him of not only his former body but of his memory, as well. Secondly, we follow Smith, a high-standing man who doesn't even need to explain which Smith he is, on top of the world, yet human enough to meet said fungus. And thirdly, we have another nameless character, who is burdened by the ability to summon things that he doesn't want. A charming gang, who will (most likely) meet at some point. --- All and all, it's a twist on the common super-hero world, where all super-heroes have somehow dissappeared, but not the possibility for new ones. The series that feature the mushroom-dude are the 123 ones, the stories that feature Smith are the ABC ones, and the ones that feature our newest character, the summoner-dude, are the abc ones. Neat, huh? Also, just a word of warning? The 123 ones are kind wierd, and you can skip the first few chapters and go straight to the ABC ones without missing too much. But I'd rather you didn't, since i really enjoyed writing them. In ABC and abc, the format changes to a more typical form, with proper grammar and stuff. So if you dont like the 123, I'd love it if you gave the ABC a chance :^) Anyhow, I hope you enjoy it!
