《DreamNotFound One Shots》who are you pt. 2
Advertisement
I opened my eyes, trying to focus on my surroundings. I saw the man with the crown, Techno was his name I believe, he was with the two figures with the cloaks. George was in the chair beside me, then I had noticed I was tied up as well. I think there was a man with a bucket hat, but I didn't see him.
"He's up," said a woman's voice, it sounded so familiar, I'm just not sure from where.
Techno turned around to look at me, "Aww he's finally up! I hope you enjoy this."
He walked behind me to turn my chair so that I was facing George. Next he went over towards George, knife in hand. Then next thing I knew, I saw blood pouring from George's cheek. He was screaming in pain, unable to say a word thanks to the gag in his mouth. The two people in the cloaks we're laughing in the far corner of the room.
"Stop! STOP! PLEASE! I'LL DO WHATEVER YOU WANT, JUST DON'T KEEP HURTING HIM!" I screamed. Techno stopped moving and turned around slowly to face me.
"Whatever I want?"
"Whatever you want, just please stop hurting George."
"I want you to watch me kill him in front of your eyes, like how you did with my brother."
I sighed, "Dave, he asked me to."
"DON'T CALL ME THAT, AND YOU STILL DID IT. I COULDN'T DO ANYTHING TO SAVE HIM. I WAS HELPLESS, I WANT YOU TO FEEL THE SAME PAIN AS ME!" he screamed.
"Techno," said a voice, the man with the bucket hat was standing in the doorway. "We both know this isn't the right thing to do."
"THEN WHAT IS THE RIGHT THING PHIL, WHAT IS IT, TELL ME!"

"I-I don't know, but it's not this.."
Techno looked over at the two people in the corner, "Girls?"
"What?" said one of them, a bit of attitude in their voice.
"Ugh, nevermind."
"Techno, Can I talk with you outside?" Phil asked him.
"Sure. Z, clean George up."
The two men left the room and the one in purple walked over to George with a cotton wad, a cloth and some medical tape. She dabbed George's cheek gently with the cloth, also wiping away all the blood. Then she taped the cotton wad onto his cheek, and started walking over to the other one.
"Who are you?" I asked. "I recognized your voice, both of your voices."
They turned their right slightly, able to see me from the corner of her glowing eye. "Why does it matter?"
"I recognize your voice-"
"Yes you said that already, probably from yesterday." they said cutting me off, then turning to face me. Their friend in red appeared behind her.
"I know you guys from somewhere, I want to help you leave."
"If we wanted to leave, we would have done that by now." said the one in red.
I sighed, "Is he keeping you here, like George and I?"
The red cloaked one lunged at me, pulling out a knife and pressing it at my throat. "Why so many questions?"
"I just want to help you." I said, pulling my neck as far away as I could from the knife.
"We don't need your help," she said harshly, pressing the knife further against my throat."
"Acarsia, don't do it." said the purple one.
"Why not?" she questioned. "Crypto, he killed Techno's brother, and asks WAYY to many questions."

"He's not worth it," she walked up to her friend an pulled her away from me. (LMFAO SEE WHAT I DID THERE????)
"S-So you do h-have names," I said shakily between breaths.
"Yeah, we do. Call us by them, and I won't stop her from slitting your throat."
"Okay, chill." I said, taken aback slightly. "You guys know Will isn't actually dead?"
"Yes we're aware," said Acarsia.
"Then why won't you tell him, instead of letting him kill me?"
"He told us only to tell him if things we're getting out of hand, besides, there's only one person who can contact him right now."
"AND THINGS AREN'T OUT OF HAND? HE SLICED GEORGE'S CHEEK, YOU TRIED TO KILL ME, AND WHO CAN CONTACT HIM?"
"No, things are fine, and I barely touched you. As for who can contact him, that's none of your concern."
"You put a knife against my neck."
"That sounds a little like trying to kill him don't you think?" said George, he had managed to get the gag out of his mouth. "And the purple one knows where he is."
Crypto jerked her head to look over at George. "If you say anything else, I will kill you."
"You can talk to him?" I screamed. "Call him, tell him to come here, I don't want to be killed, neither does George. I'm being kidnapped and tortured for nothing, Will isn't dead!"
"He does have a point Crypto," said the red cloak.
"Yeah I know, I just want Phil to know."
If is it was on cue, Phil and Techno walked back in. "I tried, he really has his heart set on killing them."
"I'm calling him, they probably shouldn't die for something that never happened."
Phil nodded and she left the room.
"WHO IS SHE CALLING. THE POLICE?" yelled Techno in Phil's face. "I WILL KILL WHOEVER IT IS!"
"I don't think you'd want to do that." said Acarsia.
He turned over to her, "Why not?"
"Because-"
"He's on his way, should be here 10 minutes or so."
"WHO. IS. COMING. CHILD." he said angrily.
"I can't share that." Crypto looked over at Phil. "I don't know why, but he's also bringing the children."
He sighed, "Why."
"I don't know, I tried to tell him it was a bad idea, but he wouldn't listen."
As they were talking I whispered with George, "Look, if we don't make it out of here alive, there's something you should know?"
"Yeah what's up Dream?"
"I-I love you, I always have.. I just thought you should know."
"What?" the colour that remained in his face, just vanished, he was as pale as a ghost.
"I love you George."
He slouched back in disbelief, at a loss for words. Then the door swung open,
"Techno.."

Second Patriarch: Rise of the Liu Clan
After the death of his father, Liu Zhu must prevail over his older brother in order to become the Liu Clan's second patriarch and bring his family to glory within Yutian Country. In the process Liu Zhu will come across lucky chances, have brushes with death, and slowly expand his world beyond that of the small country he lives in. NOTE: Currently dropped for various reasons. The short version of why I dropped it is because even the shortest form of my outlining resulted in a main plot of at least 300 - 400 chapters and I messed up massively by directly adapting it from my first attempt at this, which was a choose your own adventure on another website. It did not make the jump well at all imo.
8 88The Apocalypse Show - Dungeon Core
There were lot's of ways that people had predicted that the world would end. A few even had it partially correct. But how could they have predicted it would be a combination of the system apocalypse and aliens. Specifially aliens that wanted to create the equivlant of a TV show about the system apocalypse on Earth. Arthur woke up with a headache and the option to create a character. Most people would have gone with the safe choice and selected to stay a human. Arthur suspected that wouldn't be the safe choice in his new world. Instead he decided to see what other races were available. Eventually he decided to become a dungeon core instead. Of course being a dungeon core comes with a number of challenges. Starting with the fact that he was a giant crystal instead of having a body, managing a bunch of unintelligent minons, and most importantly the reaction of his human neighbors when they discover him. If he can overcome these challenges he may be able to enjoy some of the benefits. Such as the fact that dungeon cores are immortal and he would eventually have an entire army of dungeon minions that would obey any of his commands. Perhaps even find some female companions that are looking for a safe place during the apocalypse. Warning: If this fiction was a movie I'd rate it R for occasional scenes of violence, gore, nudity, and sexual content. This isn't something you would find in the young adult section. This does not mean that this would be rated NC-17 or X, if that is what you are looking for try lewd dungeon.
8 108Orbital Station 47c
Senior Medical Officer Valerie Helvetica Carlisle is having a very bad day. First, the military base she was assigned to as a civilian medical practitioner got bombed to hell by rebels no one really cared about. Then, she awoke super confused, on the other side of the galaxy, with her body in pieces in a cryogentic pod, on a station that had been abandoned centuries ago due to a suspected plague. Homelessness is a bitch, especially when it's your body that you got kicked out of. She has to find a way to get back into her body, get answers from the purple dude in the cryopod next to hers, and find a way either home or at least forward. She has no idea which, really.
8 52My Good Friend Murphy
***Disclaimer*** I wrote and am writing this purely for my own amusement. That means that this could have major revisions done to it sporadically, it has more grammar errors than even the most mentally stable grammar nazi could withstand, and will not update at all regularly. This is an ad-hoc fun experimental work with forced motives, plotholes, and static characters. Don't expect too much. That said, this mutated mistake of a short novella follows a ditzy MC who has been transported to a new world with the dubiously useful skills origin and enigma and the obnoxiously imbalanced skill, traveler. If you'd like more incentive to give it a shot, you will never get spoilers about the plot because there isn't one (Actual synopsis coming soon, relative to eternity)
8 119The Atomic Vice

When the authorities hear of ever stranger reports they begin to investigate, leading down a rabbit-hole of ever more worrying and deadly events. Is it weird and insane? Yes. Is the girl in the front cover suffering from a severe shoulder injury? Also yes. But that's what you're here for, you wonderful, wonderful person. You're in this thread for the insane, bizarre adventure that Atomics is. The Atomic Vice is complete at around 110k words composed of 16 chapters.
