《Man's Best Friend (Max)》21) Rail Road tracks
Advertisement
We were running down the hill when Dad stopped running. "Kids, wait" Dad said making Justin turn. "I'm just slowing you guys down" He said stopping us all. "Go onto the highway I'll hold em off" he said as we heard them getting closer.
"Max has protected us from harm wouldn't be right if we couldn't do the same" Justin and Max both ran off into the direction we came as our Dad yelled after them.
I helped my Dad up the hill as we tried running after them only to end up at some old rail road tracks.
Tyler was holding his gun up at my brother, Justin was cornered. Max was at the bottom trapped on the side of the tracks.
The truck started coming towards Dad and I. Dad lifted the gun and shot the very last bullet at the sheriff making the truck flip down the hill.
I ran closer towards the tracks trying to get a better look. "Come on Max" I whispered as if it would help in this situation. There was an explosion and I ducked down covering my head with my arms. The truck had blown up at the bottom. It was blowing up and things were being shot at us. I got shot in the leg.
I cried out at the burning sensation stuck in my leg. Every ounce of my leg felt like it was on fire. All the weapons in the truck were being sent off.
Once it stopped my leg was still bleeding. Dad scooped me up in his arms and ran us closer to Justin.
"TYLER" Dad yelled. He tried shooting at him but there wasnt any bullets left in his gun. "TYLER DONT YOU HURT MY BOY" Dad was trying to get closer but everytime he moved the bullet dug deaper into my leg.

"Dad it hurts" He looked down at me before setting my on the ground and tying his jacket tightly around my.
"I know Jen I'm gonna leave you here okay I gotta go get your brother" I nodded weakly and he ran off towards Justin. I slowly tried to get up and once I did I was hopping from tree to tree trying to get closer.
I was finally close enough to where I was sitting in the pond and I fell clutching my leg to my chest.
I watched as Tyler was yelling at my brother. Max started running towards them and it was all like it was in slow motion. Justin tripped Tyler and Max tackled Tyler off of the tracks.
"NO" I screamed and everything went black.

Katra
Kardin lived a happy and good life. That is, till he was given a strange orb by an even stranger man, maybe even a demon. He watches as his village is burned, the villagers slaughtered and his friend devoured. He escapes into the Jungle of The Gods, a place of ancient ruins and deadly animals. There, he is changed and his fate diverges from what should have been his death. Now he must forge his own path in a world of great beauty and power, where death lurks around the corner and battles between veritable gods are fought. Where nations clash and ancient beings destory civilizations on whims. But unseen cogs move under the surface, events transpiring beyond simple understanding. Strange and powerful items called Artifacts have started to reappear across the land of Auren, empowering their wielders far beyond what cultivation can give. The Traezar Empire and all of Auren are on the precipice of war and strange beings have started to emerge, all with an agenda of their own. Chaos is brewing, and Kardin must survive it, all while trying to attain vengeance and understand his strange and anomalous Katra. ***Current Schedule*** I am currently releasing 1 3,000(Sometimes I end up writing waaaay more) word chapter halfs every week. If there is not some sort of notice as to why I have vanished, then I'm probably dead. Let's hope I don't die then, eh? *Ducks under flying knife* I own this cover, put my own blood, sweat and an hour of my time into it. Ahahaha! This story is inspired (I stress this word, as because most of the story is different) by Will Wight’s Cradle. I highly recommend you read it! (Please for gods sake, if you have something to say, please do it in a curteous fashion. I don’t need any more maniacs flying at me and trying to stab me with sporks, I am already insane enough to fill that role.*Winks*) **What is This Story?** Think cultivation mashed with western fantasy, put into a pot to boil and then drunk while it's pipping hot. All the while a mad man(me) cackles insanely over the pot, stirring. It draws from xianxia lightly, which means no exasperated angry young masters. No “genuis” or “prodigy” MC, one that is not OP, or anything of the like. If you don’t like cultivation novels, this might still be up your alley. MC focuses on “Life Shaping”, see poll 2 for more Info. Warning! If your are squeamish, that gore and traumatizing content tag is there for a reason. I shall dive into both bloody and disturbing scenes and the questionable ethics of manipulating life, and some of it won’t be pretty. With a dose of realism added in. I do add my own evi- I mean despic- no, sorry, interesting twists aswell. >:) Also, I HATE info dumps! *Steps out of the way of a charging semi* Still not dead! Arc 1 (Kindling): Chapter 1 - 13 Arc 2 (Metempsychosis): Chapter 14 - 29 Arc 3 (???): Chapter 30 - ??? A disclaimer, I am new author and am still feeling out my limitations. This story is my hope of bettering my writing skills and to have fun. Buckle up and enjoy the insane journey that is Katra. (Pronounced as cah-tra)

Redshirt: The Journey
Freedom and Order. Peace and War. Love and Hate. Hundreds of young children awaken in a damaged world, on the brink of societal collapse, witnessing the birth of an omnipotent system. Their roles are pre-determined, yet the very fabric of reality lie in their hands. The order of the world shapes them, just how they are free to shape the world in their disparate visions. Each choice, each action, each word, has consequences that reach far beyond their perception. Freedom or Order; ashes in the wind, or the gilded chains. Updates at least every Monday, Thursday, and every other Sarturday, (from 26/11/2021). This is primarily a story exploring what it means to be human, using a lens of a hopefully real-feeling fantasy world. This story is not a power fantasy or a traditional Litrpg , while it has elements of these genres, it will focus on how these tropes would influence real people and possibly Redshirt will break some of these tropes along the way. There will be a variety of different characters and perspectives, some you hate, some you love, and some that will frustrate. Just as all people do. I don't believe there will be anything overly traumatic or explicit, but it's better to be safe than sorry. There will be some heavy topics explored, the characters views do not reflect the authors; however, if there is an issue in how I present/understand these issues please do tell me, and I will try my best to rectify it.
