《PSYCHO [COMPLETED]》A secret place
Advertisement
Lay follows Mrs. Oh as she opens the main gate and strides out into the landscape beyond.
"Wow it's beautiful out here." Lay exclaims.
Mrs. Oh looks up at the sky and nods. Then she runs towards the forest on the edge of the estate.
Lay again follows her across the grounds and pass under a canopy of twisted branches.
"Where are we going, Grandma?" Lay asks.
"You'll see. It's not far now."
Soon, they come to a graveyard at the edge of the woods. Overhead, a lone raven peers down its beak at Lay.
Mrs. Oh clears her throat, "This is my family plot, Lay. Where my family and I are buried."
"Doesn't it creep you to think that your deadbody is buried here?"
"No, There's something.. oddly comforting about it."
"Oh?"
"It's bittersweet.. to know that my nephew and I are down there, under the earth, where no one can hurt us again. It oddly makes me feel.. safer."
Just then, Lay is startled by a ringing. It's Luhan calling.
On Call:
Hello? Are you okay? Why you didn't bother contacting us even once?
*whispers* Hello, I'm busy.
I can't hear you! Speak louder.
I can't speak loud now. I'll call back later.
What? You can't speak loud? Is that what you said? Hello? Hello?
Yes that's what I said. I'll call back.
What? Listen, if you hear me, I'm getting worried. I'm coming there now. Just.. wait for me. I'll be there in a few minutes.
Lay exhales as the line cuts, his pulse racing.
("Crap! I must unlock the door as soon as possible." Lay tells himself)
"What was that, Lay?" Mrs. Oh asks.
"This? It's a phone. Nice technology."
"Is this how phones look nowadays? Wow. But who called?"

"Uh.. a family member concerned for me."
"Which they should be."
Lay and Mrs. Oh walks slowly through the small cemetary, reading each headstone in turn. Lay comes to two headstones close together, with the names "Mr. Oh" & "Mrs. Oh."
"Is that your husband? His death of birth is ahead of the rest."
Mrs. Oh's expression goes suddenly cold and she turns to leave.
she warns, "That grave is empty."
"What?! Why!"
"None of your business! Just.. just leave me alone! It was a mistake to bring you out here.."
Mrs. Oh strides off into the woods, leaving Lay standing alone in the cemetary. Lay hurries to catch up with her.
"Grandma, wait, listen to me!"
Mrs. Oh hangs her head for a second, and a silence passes between them.
"It's very adorable when you call me Grandma, Lay. I was remembering my nephew through you. Take care of yourself, bye.."
Mrs. Oh's face appears gloomy but she strides up the steps of the house and without a second glance, snap shuts the door leaving Lay alone.
Lay runs up and starts knocking the door. But an inexorable force sends him flying backwards.. until he crashes hard on the steps, with no way back in.
As he gets to his feet, winds howl in a sudden gale and a storm breaks out!
Lay raises an arm to shield his eyes against the growinh storm..
..and everything goes black..

My Hundredth Life
I was an ordinary guy, living an ordinary life, until it happened. What we came to call the "Reality Break". Monsters started spawning in the streets, Mana flowed through our veins, Skills and Abilities were unlocked, and everyone had a Status Screen. I was living my dream, an RPG apocalypse! Until I died, that is. And woke up in a new world...where I died again. And again. With each death, a new incarnation, a new game world, and new scars upon my soul. Now, at my 99th death, I just wish it would end...but unlike in some of the worlds I have "played" in, this time my wish is not granted. *** Author's Note: This is my first 'serious' attempt at writing a story. I am hoping to turn ths into a series that I can publish to Amazon, but my life is a bit hectic right now, so I can't make any guarantees. However, I have serious reasons for writing at this point in my life, so I will do my best to provide this new twist to the LitRPG genre and keep it up for as long as possible. Thank you, to anyone who reads this. *Also, tags might change depending on how the story goes, there may be mild profanity or mild sexual content, but I have not decided yet.

Whispers of Long Lost Voices
When all hope is gone, the crew of Hestia’s Hearth will make their own.What You Can Expect: * A Dark Yet Hopeful Universe* Kick Ass Found Families* Hero Moms* Dancers, Musicians and Space Shanties * Disabled MCs* Space Nazis Getting Punched in the Face (Sometimes Literally) * Folks who actually deal with trauma and griefThe Known Universe has been at peace for almost 100 years, but for most of Brenn’s life, trapped on an Earth controlled by the genetically superior Aesir Empire, it hasn’t felt like it. The Aesir took her peace, they took her parents, and then they took her wife. Three years after her wife’s murder, she’s found a new life light years away from Earth. A happy one, most days, with a best friend and captain who understands her, and a shared mission to undo some of the damage the Aesir have done to the Universe and offer relief to anyone who needs it. But the past has a way of rising again. A surprise rescue mission brings Brenn face to face with her wife; delirious, ill, and scarred from the bullets Brenn thought had killed her, but very much alive with a newborn at her breast. A newborn whose very existence could mean intergalactic war. Now Brenn must balance her wife’s delicate mental health, new motherhood, and her own complicated feelings while working with her Captain and their odd bunch of friends and allies to protect her tiny family from a small, but influential group within the Aesir government who will stop at nothing to take back Brenn’s wife and child. All the while, there are whispers of a greater and more ancient power coming to life. A power Brenn’s wife knows more about than she wants to let on. It’s a good thing Brenn is used to fighting. CW: Contains mildly graphic scenes of violence/death, topics of unwanted pregnancy/abortion, scientific experimentation on sapient beings, depression/suicide, grief, and trauma. The tone of this fiction is often dark and distinctly dystopian in lighter shades of Margaret Atwood, though where there is darkness there is always hope and light. On Hiatus Until September When the School Year Begins and Mom This story takes a considerable amount of time and mental energy to complete. I thought I had enough backlog and time to post it as a serial while COVID kept my child home from school, but it turns out while I can quickly write other pieces, I cannot produce the quality I need with this one at an acceptable rate. We'll resume in September when my days are much freer. Thank you for your patience and stay tuned for a different storytelling romp more suited for a serial platform in the meantime.
