Beth's POV
"Bridget" I yelled running over to hug her. "Beth" She cried into my shoulder. "What happened" I asked which only made her cry more. "We're going to finish this" Rick said.
*An Hour Later*
Bridget's POV
Rick just came back with people from Woodbury. "Lizzie" I yelled running to my little cousin. "Bridget" Lizzie and Mika yelled. We hugged for a minute before Glenn walked outside. "I didn't need space from you" I said as he walked over. "I just needed space" I said again. He nodded and took my hand. "Hey Sophia, this is Lizzie and Mika" I introduced them. After I introduced them I walked back outside and up to the gaurd tower where Glenn was taking watch. We talked for a little while and then fell asleep.
*The next morning*
Glenn's POV
I woke up to a scream from inside the prison. "Help, Help" Mika ran out of the prison yelling. "What happened" Rick yelled to her and Lizzie. "Walkers" Lizzie yelled running towards the tower Bridget and I were in. "Mika, Carl, come on" Lizzie yelled toward the 2. I opened the door, grabbed my gun and ran into the prison with Rick.
Bridget's POV
It's been at least an hour since the shooting stopped. I hope their okay. Suddenly Sophia, Reed, and Luke ran outside. "What's happening" Carl yelled running to them. "Patrick's dead" Luke said almost crying. "Sophia wheres your mom" I asked. "She's inside helping clean up" She replied running to hug me.
Glenn's POV
"So it's some kind of flu" I asked. "Yes but it can kill you" Hershel answered. "How do we know if someone has it" Carol asked. "Normal flu like symptoms" Hershel replied. "Can we cure it" I asked. "Well yes but if you get it you go through it, there is no way to stop it" Hershel said standing up and getting ready to leave. Carren and David started coughing right after we left the meeting room. We put them in another block. "We need to keep the kids away from everyone else" Rick said. "Beth and Bridget can stay with them to watch over them" Hershel replied. "Glenn whats going on" Bridget yelled from the gaurd tower. "Some kind of flu is going around" I replied walking over to the door. "You and Beth will be sitting and watching over the kids in another cell block" I said once I was up to where Bridget was. She hugged me and nodded. "Well I should get the kids to the other cell block" Bridget said wiping away stray tears. I nodded and watched her walk away.

I was sitting on the bed in my cell when I started coughing uncontrollable. "Glenn" Maggie said walking in. "Stay back I have it" I said holding my hand out for her to stop. "I'll go get Daddy" Maggie said before jogging off. When I walked into containment I saw Bridget and Lizzie in a cell together. "Bridget what are you and Lizzie doing in here" I asked getting closer to her. "We didn't feel well so daddy brought us here" Bridget replied.

Dear Spellbook (Link to rewrite in blurb)
A rewrite of this story has been posted here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/49881/dear-spellbook-a-fantasy-time-loop-rewrite Live. Study. Repeat. Tal is a sorcerer in a world where they are killed on sight, traveling with a man charged with carrying out the task. Every night Tal must pretend to study his spellbook to maintain his disguise as a Wizard’s Apprentice. If his disguise slips and his charade is uncovered, it will be his death. Seeking answers to mysteries that arose after his parent’s murder, Tal must accept any allies, no matter the risks, to uncover his family’s secret. But when he wakes up one morning to find himself trapped repeating the same day, he has to overcome his challenges all on his own. This story is an adaptation of a D&D campaign I ran but never was able to complete. I tried to capture the feel of a table-top RPG session —tropes and humor— without relying on the mechanics. This is not a litRPG or gamelit story and no D&D mechanics or system appear in the game. It follows one member of an adventuring party as he deals with the problems with that arise from being an adventurer. Namely, getting roped into adventures. The story has a time loop element, but will eventually move past that. This story explores the magic systems, the history, and the lore of the world through the lens of Tal's entries in his Spellbook and interludes from other written works in the world. New entries on Mondays Credit to JackOfHearts for the cover.
8 175Et Non Lucem
A lonely fortress, a (slightly) deranged assassin, secrets, intrigue, magic and war. What could possible go wrong? If you've ever wondered what would happen if somebody attempted to blend a realistic medieval world with fantasy, then this is for you. If you've ever wondered what happens when you stick some (extremely) flawed humans into positions of power and try making them save the world, then this story is for you. Or if you're simply bored and can't seem to decide on a new story to read, then this story is for you!This is my first ever attempt at writing a story after years and years of reading, so any and all constrictive criticism is appreciated!

After dying on his hospital bed, Jack is surprised to once again regain consciousness. Turns out he’s in purgatory where he learns that God has been pretty into gaming lately… you already know where this is going, don’t you? Yeah, yeah, I know, another LitRPG story like many others. SO original… But why then do we keep reading them and looking for more? The answer, for me at least, is because they’re usually just plain fun. That’s all I hope my story can be: fun. No fixed releases for now, nor any future plans. I’m just trying to enjoy my time writing it. Btw, the cover is something random I did and has absolutely nothing to do with anything. Don’t ask me why.
8 118Core Microsystem
Amara has spent most of her life with her parents, either switching the time they spent with her or leaving her alone most of the time. On her sixteenth birthday, her parents were a no-show. But to make up for their no-show, they did give her a gift. A gift that was going to be coveted by a lot of people who played virtual reality games. This gift would allow her to become something, to be someone in the world. To not be the kid whose parents have left her to fend for herself since she was ten. When the new game, Core Microsystem, came out, there was a twist. A twist that changed a lot of people’s lives. When a player went to create their character sheet, a random generator would offer them the chance to become a dungeon core in this new world. Watch as Amara creates her dungeon and how that affects her life in the real world.
8 172Life is Feudal
No OP stuff, status bars, levels or skills. This story is in favour of more realistic setting in a world of humans and various monsters. "Behind the mask of the assertive, resolute facade that employs ruthless routes at any given moment, lies the frail, anxious heart that were once but a puny human. Reviled and revered by many, none would ever know my true allegiance lies within myself, merely trying to survive this mess." Just the life of a grumpy man child living in a terrible piece of shit or a desolate state in which I call an alternate historical take on medieval Europe. Living as a peasant who is forced to take up arms to defend his own kin. This story grants an insightful take on the life of people living under constant danger, from vying nobles who commit atrocities in the name of justice, eager nations and barbarians aiming to take a piece of the bountiful land and mythical divine monsters who resembles a walking catastrophe in any possible way. [If you're easily offended by alternate-history religion and cultural practices, then you shouldn't read this.]
