《Athanasia Freecss》Chapter three: kite
Advertisement
a young girl wanders around a forest. She keeps looking around while talking, as if as she is... Lost.
The female who is not yet but sure to become a beauty in the near future was walking in her casual clothes which consist of an oversized yet cute white T-shirt that almost covered up to her knees. Her shirt had a tiger's face drown on the front with a black color and its back had the word »RAWR« written on it with the same color as the drawing. Her sleeves stop exactly on her wrists where they tighten so she doesn't find it difficult to move her hands. She wore black shorts underneath and small boots.
Her black hair was straight and soft, reaching her waist. Her eyes were medium sized fitting her small face with purple orbs. She had lined lips most of the time, not showing any emotion on her face, making it hard for others to read her. But it doesn't mean that her expression never changes, it's just a rare sight. Or simply because she doesn't want to.
my name is Scarlet- no I mean athanasia. Athanasia freecss. I was just a normal otaku girl but I died and got reincarnated inside my favorite anime. But.... There's something that I still can't seem to be able to get rid of.. It even followed me into this new life... "I STILL HAVE NO SENSE OF DIRECTION!!!" I groan and yell while holding my head with both hands. "it's not even my first time getting lost here.. hmph, not my fault that everything looks similar.. " I pout after saying, to no one in particular. I sigh and glance behind me" well, gon will most likely find me, like always.. " I chuckle then turn back to face ahead and begin going deeper inside the forest. 'we're finally 8 years old huh. I can't believe that me and gon are twins! We don't look alike at all.. Maybe I got the same traits as his- i mean our birth mother while he got our father's? Well, it doesn't matter. I have always wished to have a little brother like gon, and here's my wish being granted so I won't question it anymore! I'll love Gon and always protect him!'
The black haired female kept making her way further while spacing out. She stops near a tree, which had marks. "looks familiar.. " she mumbles. On the same time she was trying to think of answers, a foxbear suddenly appears and tries to attack her. With her personality, she HATES it when she gets interrupted while thinking. So she unconsciously sent a sharp glare towards the animal who was being noisy. Surprisingly, the latter got scared and immediately sat down, obeying her. The girl walked closer to it and flicked its nose, gently.

"I'm sorry for trespassing, but it really wasn't my attention. I had no will to harm you nor.. " she glances towards the cute cube, behind the now behaving adult foxbear. "your child." she smiles warmly, making the animal feel more relaxed and comfortable around her. She then starts telling that it needs to be cautious and not just attack randomly, in case it meets with a much stronger appointment and gets hurt and so on.
' what... In.. The world... In happening.. I came here in a hurry since I thought someone was in trouble but.. This.. ' I watch the young girl as she scolds the monster like animal, in awe. What's more shocking is that it obeys her. After a few seconds, I jump down from the tree and land behind her. She turns around to face me, a slightly surprised face could be seen. But it soon fades.
' I remember now!! This is where gon meets Kite for the first time!!' I stay stay silent and wait for the man to speak, which he finally did. "who are you?"
I manage to keep my outer appearance calm and a cold expression on my face but of course, I was freaking out and fan girling mentally. " it's rude to ask for someone else's identity before introducing oneself, isn't it? Mr. Whitey. " I say calmly as I keep staring at him. He paused for a moment before finally answering me "kite. My name's kite. " "okay, Mr.whitey. " I chuckle after telling him my response. "it's kite. Not Mr. Whitey." he said, in a kind of annoyed tone. 'gosh I just love teasing him!' "Whatever Mr. Whitey! I'm athanasia by the way! Athy or sia for short!" "kite.. " he repeated. "Mr. Whitey." I kept teasing him. Then we soon had a flaring contest. The me who dislikes losing, is actually not willing to avert my eyes even when knowing that I'm in the wrong.
It was around lunch time, but athy is still to show up. She usually never misses any meal time. The only possibility is that she is lost.. Again!
I've searched almost the entire village but I don't see any trace of her. Then I remember that I find her inside the forest often, so I head there. After walking for a while, I spotted her back. "ah athy-!" 'that man! Is he going to hit my sister!? He seems angry!'

Gon, who completely misunderstood the situation ran as fast as he could and got between Athanasia and kite, his back facing his sister as he spread his arms, trying to protect her. "don't hurt my sister!!" kite looked a little surprised by the cute little boy's action. "what? I wasn't going to hu-" he got cutoff when Athanasia yelled at gon. "gon you big idiot!! Even if I was in danger, you should run and not cover me! Or just go to get help! I'm the one who's supposed to protect you not the other way!!" she pulled him behind her and stared at kite. "kite." she finally said his name and smiled a little.
Kite found the little siblings interesting and I'm gonna lie if I say he didn't start liking them. He then decided to have a small talk with the twins and maybe even ask about his sensei, Ging Freecss.
After exchanging a few words with kite, we started to feel much more relaxed around him. Well, even if I knew that he was a good character, I still can't let my guard down and gamble on our first meeting. Who knows, my existence might have done other changes. But I was worried over nothing, at least for now there are no changes in characters.
He was pretty surprised when we told him that we were twins.
He told us about gin- I mean our father being alive and that he is a Hunter, as well as his teacher.
Since I already know that, I wasn't surprised. Unlike little gon, who got excited and decided to become a hunter too and find his- i mean OUR father.
After some time, we said our farewells to kite and head back home, with gon taking the lead of course since I don't know the way back, I literally don't know anything related to directions, even when I used gps in my previous life.
When we arrived there, gon told Mito-san about our father and that he wants to become a hunter like him, I too said that I want the same thing.
As expected, she refused strongly at first but after who knows how long, she agree to let us take the hunter exam that will take place three years from now. With the condition that gon catches the giant fish known as the Master of the Swamp. Gon was so excited and immediately left to get it. I smiled and turned to leave the kitchen when she stopped me. "and you, sia.. " I turned around to face her again, gulping. "y-yes?" she smiled a little. " You have to accompany grandmother to a friend's house. She is sick and grandma wants to visit her. It's located outside of this island but it's not too far, I wouldn't let you go if it was. " My eyes widen in surprise. "wh-what for?!" she sighed then continued talking " I know that you're not good with other people besides us, and you usually only stick around gon. What will happen if you go into a very new world of hunters when you don't even know how to communicate with others properly? You can't always stay with gon. I want you to go with grandma, even though I know that you hate visiting others, bot to mention strangers. But oh well, you can always refuse, just so you know, if either of you fails or refuses then none of you is going to take the exam." I could tell that she is confident that gon won't catch the fish, and that I will accept this task since she knows I will do anything for gon and since this is his dream I gotta do it for him. hitting two birds with one stone huh..?but...
'are you kidding me!? This wasn't even in the plot!!'

Of Gods and Dungeons
March 16, 2021 - Hiatus note: I will come back to this story! I'm really struggling with it, though. It's been a number of years and I kind of forgot what the original outline was. I still remember the main path, but not any of the details, because I stupidly didn't write an outline. Progress is being made. I'd like a very decent sized buffer before I start posting again. Don't want to get hopes up only to immediately disappoint! ----- Amy Barnes, an aspiring chemical researcher, finds herself dying from cancer. One of her most desperate prayers is answered in a way that she'd never dreamed possible, and she finds herself living a new life as a dungeon. Warning: Violence, morbidity Cover: Taken from here, courtesy of www.pexels.com by photographer @tookapic. Author's Note: I've read some dungeon core stories on here, and they've tickled my fancy. I've thought up a whole story, start to finish, and thought it'd be a blast to put it into words. Other than the violent and morbid aspects, this story is suitable for children. Aside from the vocabulary, that is. I will avoid the temptation to have any cursing, sexuality, or gore. Excessive gore, I suppose - it is a dungeon story, after all. I’ll do a little research from time to time, but this story will not have a great deal of rigor. I’ve made Amy’s knowledge comparable to my own for that reason. There’s a few things she knows more about than I do, and a few things that she knows less about. Unlike me, she doesn’t have access to Google - it’s a non issue for her to be more knowledgeable than me, on occasion :P This story does not use the same magic system that I’ve used in either Sorcery in Boston or A Summoner’s Confession. This one is mostly intention based, and designed to be easier access for people who are more used to the idea of, “It’s magic, therefore it works” kind of thinking. Do note that Amy is, in most senses of the term, overpowered. This goes along with the usual dungeon core stories. She’s not more powerful than other dungeons per se, but she does have knowledge and intelligence that puts them to shame. I thought about doing this in a LitRPG style, but systems take balance, and I wanted this to be pure fun to write.This story was inspired from a few sources. Despite the title, it wasn’t really inspired by Of Mice and Men, though some of the themes match. Rather, I’ve taken inspiration from a few dungeon core novels on Royal Road Legends for the main idea. Many conventions of dungeon core stories have been perverted from the genre, however. I’ve taken my usual science-loving self to town to play around with the powers, and I can only hope you have half as much fun reading this as I have had writing it.

Rascal, troublemaker, an annoying brat—those are the nicknames commonly attributed to Mattiaz Rider: an uncontrollable sixteen-year-old brat who grew up in an orphanage, annoying the skin off his caretakers and supervisors.

He is immediately assigned to the New Baymort Spirit Academy in Holy Bay, eager to pursue his newfound dream of winning the famed Spirit Tournament and becoming one of the strongest spiriters ever known. However, soon after he enrolls at the Spirit Academy, Mattiaz learns that not everyone shares his idolized view of spiriters.

NaNoWriMo challenge :D and [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Some magic elements are borrowed from Savage Divinity and a handful of other good wuxia/xianxia stories, but the story itself is pretty original if I do say so myself.
