《Disappearance》Chapter 8
Advertisement
I've been in Haisley's room almost everyday all day I just can't bring myself to leave out of here. And the more I look at her crib I think about walking in here when she cries or coming in here in the morning when she wakes up.
"What you doing". Jahreem asked walking inside the room.
"Thinking about what I did wrong". I said tearing up as I sat in the rocking chair.
"Baby you didn't do anything wrong". He said kneeling down in front of me.
"I just look at this room and it makes me think about her". I said wiping my face.
She would have loved playing in here.
"Look I'll pack everything up in the room and put it in storage". I said and she shook her head.
"No keep it the way it is she might come back". She said causing me to sigh.
"Baby she's gone she's not coming back". I said softly trying to touch her but she pushed me away.
"DON'T FUCKING SAY THAT DO YOU NOT CARE ABOUT HER AT ALL". She yelled causing me to look at her like she was crazy.
"OH COURSE I CARE ABOUT MY FUCKING DAUGHTER I BEEN TRYING TO HOLD SHIT TOGETHER FOR YOU". I yelled and I could feel veins popping out of my neck.
"You don't act like you care that she died". She said with a shrug.
"Let me get the fuck out of here before I say some shit". I said walking out of the room and grabbing the keys from the counter and walking out.
Going down the street to the grocery market I see some of my boys hanging out around there.
"Wassup dude how's the baby". One of the guys asked.
"Don't worry about it and come here let me talk to you". My bestfriend Rich said and we walk away from the group.

"What's going on I saw the look on your face when he asked". He said looking at me waiting for me to answer.
"She-she died man". I said tearing up and he pulled me into a hug.
"It's gone being okay man you got to stay strong for Marlowe". He said and I shook my head.
"That's what I been trying to do but it seems like she pushing me away". I said with a sigh looking at people that passed by.
"This just a hard time try not to take it to heart she needs you right now so go home". He said and I nod letting him know I was listening.
"I'll catch you later". I said dapping him up before walking off.
Walking into the apartment I see Marlowe in the corner again talking to herself again holding a knife. Rushing over I take the knife from her.
I think it's time to call the institute she got out of for her own safety.
Pulling out my phone I dial the number and it rings a few times before somebody picked up.
"Cornerstone Psychiatric Institution". The person said as I looked at Marlowe.
"Wassup I have a released patient who isn't doing to good". I said and I could hear movement on the other end.
"Can I have the patients name please". She asked and I nodded.
"Marlowe Thompson". I said and she looked over at me before talking to herself again.
"And what is the problem". She asked typing on the computer.
"She uh talks to herself like hears voices that tell her to do things I don't know what it's called". I said scratching the back of my neck.
"I have her file up right now and I'm sending some people over to pick her up as we speak". She said and I nod as if she could see me.

"Cool thanks". I said before hanging up.
I sat here watching Marlowe the whole time when a knock came on the door. Standing up I open the door and two dudes wearing all white stood there.
"She's over there". I said pointing at her as I moved to the side.
I watched as they went over and tried talking to her to see if she would go willingly but she wouldn't.
"We're going to have to pick her up is that alright". One of them asked me.
"Yeah don't hurt her though". I said and he nodded.
They picked her up and she started thrashing around swinging wildly.
"DON'T LET THEM TAKE ME". She screamed reaching out to me.
"Administer 30 mgs of Benzodiazepines lorazepam". One of them said to the other.
I watch as he pulled out a needle and stuck it in her arm and after that she went limp.
"Yo what did you just do". I ask with my face scrunched up.
"It's a sedative for aggressive patients she'll be fine". He said and I nodded.
They start walking out of the apartment and put her into an ambulance type of van.
Before they could close the door I stopped them.
"Let me say something to her real quick". I say and they nod letting me step in the van.
"I love you and I'm doing this for you". I said grabbing her hand kissing it.
"I-I love y-you too". She said slurring her words.
Stepping off the van they close the door and get in before driving off.
Dropping my head I shake it before walking back into the building and to our apartment.
I just want her to get the help she needs right now...

Earth Ascension - Fantasy Adventure LitRPG
It’s a normal day on Earth when a powerful being triggers the assimilation of Earth and all living beings into the Ascended Universe, a frightening wall of light envelops the planet in order to drag it into a higher plane of reality. A place where abundant mana allows powerful magic and monsters to reside. The protagonist Dante wakes up in a dark cave with vague memories of his past life. He is confronted by a crazy, enigmatic and powerful being who sees Dante as his chance to escape his prison. Tasked with a grand trial, Dante is dropped on a planet he no longer recognises and starts his perilous journey through the Ascended universe. In this universe resides an omnipotent system that quantifies everyone's existence into numbers, it also assists people in becoming more powerful. Join the main protagonist as he is pitted against powerful monsters, Angelic beings, Demons and much more. He makes friends and loyal companions along the way, unfortunately, he also attracts the attention of powerful galaxy-spanning organisations that want to use his power for their own nefarious purposes. Forewarning regarding the start of the story. This story contains graphic descriptions of violence. The first few chapters of the book focus mostly on characters experiences and state of mind. The protagonist doesn't start off as a hero, he's distressed, confused, scared and struggling for survival. LitRPG elements are sprinkled throughout these chapters but aren't initially at the forefront of the story. If you're willing to persevere, the LitRPG elements and significant progression become more heavily intertwined with the story as they become more relevant. Thank you. *** What to expect *** This is a Fantasy Adventure LitRPG. There’s gore, swearing, bad jokes and lots of struggling. (I like to make the character earn his power.)Book 1: Covers the characters' experiences in becoming accustomed to this new reality. There are chapters that focus on survival and hardship. He starts with literally nothing, gradually he accumulates incredible power. He achieves his power through completing various trials and encounters in his journey to find out who he is, and what he wants in this world. There’s a focus on the mental state of the protagonist and an alternating pace of writing to allow character development to occur. The planned second book will kick off at a much faster pace with more action, focus on the system, and delving into the purposes of the Grand trial assigned to the main protagonist.I aim to deliver a world with Interesting characters, Monsters, Magic, Epic battles, Levelling, System interaction, Skill creation, Trials (Quests), Dungeons, Training and more. *** Release ****Chapters will be around 2000-3000+ words long, averaging 2.5k. I’ve almost finished the first book and am trying to edit and polish the chapters that are being released.I aim to release 3-5 chapters a week.Please enjoy.

Unique Fusion Magic Hex
World Essence. The mysterious energy coursing throughout the entire land of Vor'ten, and very possibly the entire world. This energy has allowed humanity to flourish, building great empires and vast kingdoms, conquering nature itself with just a sweep of their hand. Humans were the strongest existence, and with the help of channeling this World Essence, many were able to turn into Magic Knights, gaining magical abilities to combat the various fierce beasts throughout the lands.Alas... those glory days of old were long gone. Humanity has now been pushed to the brink of destruction, and now the remaining members of the human race are encased within giant domes known as 'Alkkras', made with the last remaining bits of the World Essence. It was said that those giant domes were the last gifts left by the remnants of the ancient human race, as a means to protect the future generation from the attacks of the many wild beasts roaming outside. Five Spiritualist Invokers, all combined together, used the last bit of the World Essence and sacrificed their lives to lay a gigantic, 1028-seal formation magic array to form these barriers, forever saving humanity, but also trapping humanity within these barriers.However, the humans were never completely helpless. No matter how little World Essence was left, the humans still had some remaining. Realizing the incoming crisis, the humans found a way to seal World Essence inside a special type of crystal. Soon, these crystals began to become implanted into weapons, turning them into World Essence Weapons, and they began to display properties of their own. Extreme heat. Bone chilling cold. Absurd sharpness. These normal weapons, after being imbued with the energy of the World Essence Crystals, began to form natural affinities to elements. Fire. Water. Earth. Wind. Darkness. Light. Using these weapons, one could become a Chevalier that wielded the power of the elements.However, if one wanted to reach a higher level of enlightenment and understanding, one could become an Invoker. Via the study of magic array formations, one could directly use the power of the World Essence to cast devastating magics upon the enemy. These people were Invokers, highly valued for their combat potential by the Army. These weapons and magical arrays were used in the great fight between the humans and the beasts long ago. They had long since been put away in storage, almost long forgotten...However, after ten-thousand years of suppression, the human race is beginning its counterattack against the Beasts... Synth was an Invoker in the Magecroft Academy. However, his talent was terrible, being only at the Spark Stage. This led to him being looked down upon and bullied. He was unable to cast any Calamity-rank or even Destruction rank spells, and was only able to cast Coalescing rank spells at the age of 17, a record low in the academy for cultivating these rare Invokers. Even though he put in more effort than anyone else, he was still unable to advance his Channeling Energy. But due to his constant research and study, Synth ended up creating a power that would go against the heavens - he had found how to Fuse spells together. After trying it out once, merging the magical array for the Small Fireball and the Mortal Judgement skills, he was able to create a mid-rank Destruction tier spell, Holy Judgement Flame. However, after this, no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to fuse more spells together or even cast them, and noticed a weird, pentagram shaped formation on his left arm. He would later call this mark the Fusion Magic Hex, a curse that prevented the wielder from casting magic that wasn't their own...This meant that with the exception of Synth's newly created skill, , he was going to have to create unique magic arrays if he ever wanted to step on the path of becoming an Invoker! This power that destroyed the laws of the Invoking System, and his unyielding persistence in testing and creating new spells, would later gain Synth the nickname the Unique Fusion Hex, and lead him to become one of the strongest beings in the entire World!
