《Behind Closed Doors》Pause and Rewind 🤨

"Alright then! Now officially as team 7 let's go get some food!"
Kakashi, now the official leader of Team 7, brought us to Ichiraku's. He pretty much forced us and honestly I just hope he was paying.
Realizing it would probably be in my best interest to ask that question before I ordered food I couldn't afford to spend money on. Sure Ichiraku's was pretty cheap, but still I needed to get new weapons and I needed them soon.
We made it to the stall and I asked, "So...whose paying?"
"Everyone is paying for themselves." He gave an eye smile.
I got up and left.
"Naruko! Get back here!" Sakura's annoying voice cut in on my journey away from the tempting ramen.
"Sorry I'm busy."
It looked like Kakashi rose a eyebrow, but it morphed into another eye smile and a laugh.
"I was joking. I'm paying!" He said overly cheery.
"Who even are you?" I said pointing at him.
He shrugged and ordered his food and I was called to order next.
"I'll have miso ramen."
Teuchi, the owner of the place who I had become close to over the years, smiled at me and slipped an extra egg in my bowl."
In response I gave him a teethy smile as he set my food down.
I completely annihilated the ramen. It was gone in a matter of seconds, chewing wasn't even in question as I finished the bowl.
Looking over I was met with some disgusted stares from Sasuke, Sakura, and well Kakashi was also done so it didn't really matter what he thought.
"Staring is rude ya'll know that right?"
"Naruko! It's so unlady like to eat like that!"
"Uh, that's so cool thanks for telling me, but if I'm being honest I actually do not care."

She made an offended face and went back to eating after grumbling under her breath about me.
It had been like 10 minutes and these people were still not done eating.
I had lost over 5 rounds of Uno to Kurama already and I couldn't take it anymore.
"How are you people so slow!? Just eat damnit!"
"Actually speaking of that I'm gonna go, I have business to attend to. Show up at the bridge tomorrow for our first mission alright." With that Kakashi poofed away.
"Eh?! He really left me here with- with you uh people. I hate our sensei."
"Naruko our sensei payed for our meal and you're here complaining! Weren't you raised right? Oh right I forgot your parents aren't around."
I stepped back a little in shock that she would stoop that low. The fact that she's literally over there laughing at the fact she made fun of me because I don't have parents was actually gross.
"What the fuck Sakura?"
She looked up and me and her eyes widened as she saw the un amused look on my face.
I could see Sasuke wasn't having this either as he looked at Sakura disgustedly.
"Just because you selfishly got so obsessed with a boy that you lost the only person that would ever even consider being your friend doesn't mean you have the right to say that. I actually hope you grow bald and get your head spit shined on the daily."
With that I got up and left not missing a beat even after hearing the yell that erupted out of the banshee's mouth. I didn't really care what she had to say.
'Huh? Oh yeah I'm fine, I just don't understand how many inches her forehead has to grow before Sakura realizes she's actually annoying."
"
'Damn. Fine whatchu want homie.'
"
"Hol up. Rewind pause skip replay start again backtrack zoom in out left and right beginning to end. You can what now?"
"Naw das crazy, never speak to me again saying shit like that. I'm out."
"OH SHI-"

Ogre Tyrant
Tim wakes up to find he is naked and alone in a fantasy world. However, he is not as alone as he first thought. There are other people running around all over the place fighting monsters for a living. Unfortunately for Tim, he seems to be one of those monsters. Desperate for any degree of safety and normalcy he can find, Tim must tread a fine line between freedom and subservience to survive. All while trying to keep alive a trio of adventurers hellbent on becoming legends. However, unfortunately for Tim, he is not the only one from earth to awaken in this world and the other Awakened aren't nearly so benevolent. Warning: The protagonist begins the story quite cowed and meek but progresses into a more assertive and situationally dominant personality. This is partly due to growth, but also a result of the character overcoming initial shock and longstanding depression. If you think I could have handled a segment better, by all means, point it out and provide your reasoning and suggestion. Everyone's experience of depression is different, and Tim's is a close representation of my own, so it won't necessarily 'vibe' with everyone. Chapters are around 15k words and released approx 1/week over the weekend. Has been reduced to around 7.5k to 9k to better fit my schedule.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Age of Regression
[Author's Thoughts] Dropped, obviously. Still, it's my first attempt at a novel and I do love what I did with it. Big step towards learning. Far in the past, there was a civilization much more advanced than the one of modern times. Evidence of that time remains, but it is all but shrouded in mystery as there remains no way to decipher it. Currently, normal individuals wage war with guns and smaller machinery, but those who can wield a higher power vary in their abilities. Scales, born upon humans, are a mystery in their origins but are the source of their abilities and their way towards advancement. Although normally powerless, humans have adapted to the scales and thus can connect with the power of the universe, much like the other races that inhabit its various corners. In one of these corners, there exists a human settlement where Lancing follows his father's footsteps to begin his own ascent to power. However, he finds he is far different from his gifted father, whose scales below his eyes were among the purest ever seen, reaching gem-like quality. Far from perfect, Lancing shows no desire to give up and ceaselessly moves forward to reach the peak of the universe. However, he begins to notice that the mysteries of the universe slowly begin to unravel in front of his eyes. To reach the heavens, Lancing must carve his own path.
