"cmon meilani it's not that hard to decide" kiara echoes through the house. "i have so many bikinis kie, it's not that easy!" meilani calls back. "fine but don't blame me when the boys start having a go at us for being late yet again." this was daily occurrence for meilani and kiara. meilani was very specific about her outfits and kiara looked naturally good no matter what so all she had to do was throw anything on.
"oh look who's finally decided to join us" jj rolls his eyes as both girls approach. "we would've been on time if it wasn't for mei-" kiara starts but is cut off by john b "let me guess, mei had to pick out the perfect bikini for the occasion." "hey! it's not easy to look THIS good" meilani says while doing a twirl for the group. "it's easy for kiara" pope says quietly. meilani thumps him on the arm. the girls take their seats, kiara next to pope and meilani sitting perfectly on jjs lap while he played with her hair. this was normal for them, yknow the flirting but constantly denying it to save their friendship.

after a short while, the group arrive at tannyhill. at the dock, sarah is sitting there waiting.
"m'lady" john b smiles while taking sarah's hand and helping her onto the boat. jj and meilani make fun of them both.
just as the group are about to leave, rafe cameron calls out. "meilani!!". she looks behind her to see him standing there with her bag. her face flushes red. she gets up off the boat and walks to him. they start walking away so the group can't hear.
"rafe fucking cameron" jj mutters under his breath. "you know anything about this sarah?" kiara asks. sarah shakes her head as the rest of the group watch the pair, who seem to be in a bit of an argument now.

after a couple of minutes, meilani gets frustrated and grabs her bag. she turns on her heels and walks back towards the boat. "meilani please!" rafe calls out. the girl ignores him and gets back on the boat into her original position on jjs lap. the group just stare at her in confusion. "what're you waiting for john b, go." she says. without hesitation, john begins driving away.

after a day of swimming in the marsh, the group return to john b's house. "i'm gonna turn in for the night, see you guys tomorrow" meilani gets up. the group say goodnight to her and she starts to walk away. "hey meilani, wait!" jj calls out. she stops and waits for him to catch up. they begin walking again. "so you have been really quiet since what happened with rafe earlier, why'd he have your bag?" jj asks. "it doesn't matter" meilani responds quietly. "are you macking on him?" he continues. "no" the girl responds bluntly.
they reach her house and low and behold no ones home. meilanis mom died when she was younger and ever since then her dad has been working extra at his job at the sheriffs station. "goodnight jj" meilani says as she walks away. "mei, wait." the girl turns around on her porch to face the blonde, "what?" he goes to say something but stops himself. "goodnight gorgeous". meilani scoffs at his remark and laughs. without another word, she goes inside.

Silhouette
WARNING: THIS STORY HAS A SLOW START. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. We all grew up hearing stories about heroes and villains, but what would we do if we were to be part of one? One night, a bioweapon escaped from its laboratory in Zalcien, only to die in a dark alley. One night, a young man lent a helping hand, only to die alone in the dark. One night, a deity of death saw two lost souls and offered one a second chance in the other's body. Now a strange creature made of darkness, James has to deal with his new form in a strange new world where superpowers, heroes and villains are commonplace, far away from his home. Watch as he learns how to use his powers, as he meets allies and enemies and how, when facing the paths of heroism and villainy, he chooses a third way somewhere in between. Follow the story of James, a lost Earthling soul, as he becomes Silhouette, the mysterious power in the shadows. Greetings fellow humans. This is my first story on Royal Road and my first long-term project written in English, so I do hope you will have some mercy in your heart when reading. So, as you may have understood, this is a story with super-heroes - which is quite ironic for my first story considering all of the other ones planned are fantasy - and as such will take place in a modern-like setting. Despite dark themes and gory scenes making their way into the story, it is still a super-hero world with the logic that matches, so expect characters to survive nuclear explosions without a scratch and yet to get defeated by a rubber ducky - as well as similar dark humor, thus the comedy part.

8 223Alfheimr Renaissance
This is a story about a somewhat normal human, on a hike on Hardangervidda in Norway, that end up walking out in Alfheimr instead of Earth. Alfheimr is one of the nine realms of the old Norse religion, home of the light elfs. Its quite a culture shock, and he don't really know the language, culture or religion. The decisions he make have consequences, and some will change Alfheimr. He decide that if he's ever going to get back to Midgard he have to travel to a bigger town, try to find information, make money and so on. So he's trying to be smart, and pretends to be a mysterious wandering magician. Should be easy to fake right? ... and thats the first decision with gigantic consequences, since he doesn't know that only women do magic. A man doing magic is automatically unmanly. Oops. Be warned; English isn't the Authors primary language, and its mostly written in first person view. The story progress will be slow.
8 454The Samsara Dirge: Adventures in Post-Apocalyptic Broadcasting
It was not the apocalypse anyone expected. They called it the Changes. (Which might sound boring, though it was no such thing!) During this time, reality itself was suspended. Anything could happen, and often did. Who could have anticipated flying turtles, lighter than air futons, the appearance of the color slurkle, or the eradication of differential calculus? After a year and a half of such wonders, it all stopped. The world was not the same, nor the people in it. Why had it happened and how did it end? Would it return? No one knew. Silverio Moreno, irrepressibly optimistic host of one of the most popular post-apocalyptic gameshows, wants answers. And the truth might just bring in his highest ratings yet!
