《Caught (ON HOLD)》Chapter Six The Wrong Person
Advertisement
Sebastian instantly drags me to the nearest place you can buy clothing, and I somehow dragged Meghan out too.
The one I'm trying on is a long sleeved white dress. Perfect for what I'll be doing.
At the court, I stand in the back of the room, and keep quiet.
At the feast I stand behind his chair, and make sure his wine glass is never empty.
And at the execution, I will stand and watch either my friend or an innocent die.
A lot of standing.
"Wow! Jenn you look... Wow. " He gasps, the only thing wrong with this dress is it's low cut, an shoes off my breasts and tattoos.
"I hate it." I moan.
"Too bad your wearing it." He responds.
"You are an ass." I snap.
"You two are a old married couple trapped in twenty year olds." Meghan smirks. "And you look hot." She adds.
So Sebastian pays for the dress, and this ridicules pair of high heels I can barely walk in.
I change into my regular cloths, and follow him to the train station, and Meghan goes home.
Again I find myself curled up in a ball, and Sebastian laughing.
The presidential mansion is huge. Sebastian leads me to a large door, as I pull the suitcase.
"Name and purpose." Says a fat robotic like voice.
"Sebastian Mythe. For the court." He says into the speaker, and the doors open.
"I'll show you to your room sir." A short man replies.
We follow him to a one bed one bath, room.
Sebastian hands me a pillow and a blanket.
"Oh, I'm sleeping on the floor?"
"I may not be fifty or have ten cats, but I'm not giving you the bed." He replies.

"That's fair." I retort, and create a pallet in the floor.
I woke up to Sebastian buttoning up a navy blue dress shirt. Has he always been this muscular? Has he always been this atractive?
"Do I have to wear the dress-"
I begin to ask.
"-Yes Jenn, yes you do."
So I go into the bathroom, change, and comb my hair.
"Happy?" I ask, slipping on the damn heels.
"Yes. Come on we are going to be late." He answers, and I follow him to the court room.
The president stands in the front, a blond man, older than me kneels in from of him.
"Let the court commence!" Yells the second in command.
"We have evedence, and witness, so this should be quick." Sebastian whispers.
"We charge you we murder an offense to the country. To avenge Mr. Robert Mythe, We sentence Chase Hope to death." President Kamp says.
Before I can think, I'm running to the front of the room.
"YOU'VE GOT THE WRONG PERSON!" I scream. I'm being dragged of of him by strong arms, I assume are Sebastian's.
"Jennifer! I love you!" Chase yells, and as the door closes a gunshot pierces my ears.
He's gone. I'm crying. That's all I can do.
"Sebastian get the hell off me." I scream through sobs. "They killed the wrong person.
I'm released, and turn to see a green eyed guy, maybe my age, but he isn't Sebastian.
"Care to explain what you mean by that?" He asks.

No More Respawns
Synopsis: The first time Allen died, he was forced back into a living hell where death is temporary, and power is all that matters. With evil and depravity as the rule, tragedy becomes comedy and life becomes an act. Only a deal with a shady god can get him back to his old life, but what happens if there’s nothing left to save? Maybe hell isn’t so bad if you have infinite lives… until you don’t. Needless to say, it’s all fun and games until there’s no more respawns. Foreword: This story is meant primarily as an action adventure and secondarily as a dark and nihilistic comedy. It may not be readily apparent in the beginning, but that's what I have planned (I feel the need to emphasize the dark; don’t rage at me if it gets too ‘traumatizing’ or something). I’m going to take my time with this, so it won’t immediately inundate you with doom and gloom. This is also a comedy, remember? On that note, if for some cursed reason you just can't handle either the references or the jokes, I am willing to battle in the comments. Anyway, I still put a significant amount of effort into the system, so I hope you enjoy that part. It is a little bulky, I'll admit to that, but I wanted to try something new and its more fun when there's more depth to it. Regardless, I still have a lot of fun doing math in the middle of writing a fictional story (/s). I also want to see if I can keep from messing up the pacing. Many times, I end up going too fast because I'm afraid of the story getting boring, which tends to ironically have the opposite effect. I'm still learning I suppose; we'll see how things go. Lastly, please leave reviews and comments, they really mean a lot to me and (usually) help me improve considerably. I'll be asking for feedback in the polls and I do still check the old ones from time to time. Notes: The story takes a bit of time to develop; give it time if you're here for drama, grimdark, or antihero. The system is all blue boxes and I'm not half-assing the numbers. Chapters will be between 1k and 2k words usually. I always use the oxford coma, fight me. Might drop if rating falls below 4 stars, idk. It depends on how my life is going. Cover drawn by yours truly in MS paint. (I have skill, I know)

Now I have changed to a Monday-Wednesday-Friday release schedule as a goal to finish out the book. I "won" the challenge and made it over 55k. Series – Dice rolls, quests, and intriguing characters are only the tip of the spear. The Adventurer series includes playable game mechanics, maps, and more! Thrust into a world governed by tabletop RPG rules, Cire must survive an onslaught of wondrous and horrific challenges. His peculiar race, charismatic personality, and talent for turning negative situations sideways might just be the tools he needs to achieve his goals, or they may lead to his ruin. First book in the series- Adventurer: Sunrise Over Sunset Short story prequel- The Lurking Lair: An Adventuer Series Short Story Author's Note: This is my debut series. Up until this point, the only thing I have written of comparable length has been non-fiction and related to history.

Our main character (a cat) adventures with his friends and encounters many situations.Author's Note:Hello. This is my first story. Though I hesitate to call it such. It is supposed to be relatively relaxed for the most part. Any constructive criticism is welcome. My updates will be slower than a snail and my chapters are relatively short so deal with it please and don't murder me. Romance should come in later. Thank you~
8 74Legends meet the 100
DC's Legends of Tomorrow accidentally end up on Earth 100 (which is where the events of the 100 take place) right before S3 E07 and without the whole Alie problem going on. The legends are the group at the end of season 5 plus Charlie and without Mick's daughter (Zari, Nate, Charlie, Behrad, Constantine, Ava, Mick, Sara, Astra).This crossover wasn't originally my idea, but I'll try to stay true to most events and characters.
