《Adopted By My Chemical Romance》Chapter 11
Advertisement
After I had put Bandit to bed, which took forever, I had some time to kill. I didn't exactly want to go downstairs and sit on my phone so I decided to wandered around the second and third floor. There was one room on the second floor that I didn't know anything about. Frank just said that it was Gerard's space and I shouldn't go in there but I was desperate to know what was in there. I pushed the handle down and slipped into the room.
The room had two walls plastered with posters of bands such as The Who, Green Day and Thursday. The other walls were white. There were a lot of pictures dotted around too. Bandit, Lyn-Z, My Chemical Romance and some of a group of four kids as well as Mikey and Gerard with a girl who couldn't be much older than me. In the corner there was a bookshelf with awards, albums and Gerard's comics. There was a small recording studio in the room as well with a collection of guitars hanging on the wall with a few on stands on the floor. The desk had sketches, music scores and a Mac.
I picked up an acoustic guitar before sitting on the floor. I plucked the strings and quickly got the feel of the guitar.
"Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time..." I sang as I began playing Good Riddance.

I went up the stairs to my office. I needed to do some work desperately. Since Jade had arrived I had fallen behind on three days work. The others were doing whatever. They probably watching a film. When I got towards to my office I noticed that the door was slightly open with the strumming of a guitar and singing came out. Everyone knew not to come in here and Frank had definitely told Jade to not come in here. I opened the door quietly to see Jade sitting on the floor with one of my guitars in her hands playing Good Riddance by Green Day. It was one of my favourite songs. I stood in the doorway quietly and let her the finish the song.

"Why are you in here?" I asked once she had finished.
"Who are the two girls in the pictures?" She asked.
"No one you need to know about. This is my space Jade Way. You're not allowed in here." I answered sternly.
"I'm sorry. I was just curious. It was a room Frank didn't say much about." Jade replied.
"Just go Jade. I need to do work." I sighed as I ran my hand through my hair. I watched her as she put the guitar back where it belonged before she scampered out my office with her head hung low.

Ancient Bones: The Changed Ones book 1 (Post-Post Apocalypse LitRPG)
Is it truly an RPG Apocalypse... if no one can see the RPG? Generations after the Fall, Mankind has achieved a balance in a world it is no longer the master of. But your prospects in this Malthusian world are limited. Johanna Milton and her friends have an answer: delve into Ancient ruins, avoid Changed beasts and mana pockets, and salvage Ancient materials, collectibles, and trinkets to sell. It pays well if you avoid the perils of the Ancient world. But when they find the skeleton of an Ancient, their lives take a strange turn. Suddenly, Talents straight out of fantasy novels become theirs. While they try to make sense of what happens, eyes turn to them, to the four who seem to break all rules. Or are they merely following them? Because, in the Beyond where he's spent 150 years waiting, one dead Ancient knows the truth. Douglas Moore has played those games often enough when he was alive to make sense of the System that rules the Changed world. He can no longer act on his own, but he has access to the Interface. And four people for which he can bring whatever it takes to face the world. Change is coming. The Changed Ones is a slow-burn litrpg fantasy trilogy (Ancient Bones, Ancient Books, Ancient Bonds) set on Earth, 150 years after the RPG Apocalypse... which mostly failed. It is an homage to the venerable ancient RPGs of the Golden Box era, the Baldur's Gates, and many others, offering adventure where You must gather your party before venturing forth. Keywords: LitRPG, realistic setting, low-leveling, post-post-apocalypse, fantasy earth, slow-burn, secondary POVs, female primary MC, team adventure, worldbuilding. Trigger warnings: casual swearing, adult innuendo (no explicit scenes whatsoever, though). Oh, and potentially a bit of politics. Bonus content: a Litrpg Easter Egg hunt. With lots of eggs across the book, some easy, some hard to find. Current score: 6/20 (20 eggs, 6 found) Publication schedule: on hold until September for book 2.

My Dear Alice - A Dark Awakening
He’ll cross a lethal land to bring her back home. But is she willing to be found? Appalachian Wasteland, 2072. Jamie Henderson wants to forget all about his ex-girlfriend Alice. Except this nonviolent fixer has been hired to find her after she went missing in the ongoing AI-controlled war. But his quest through the hostile post-apocalyptic terrain turns deadly when a roadside raider attack sees him captured by a terrifying matriarchal clan. Stranded in dangerous territory, Jamie’s jaw drops when he discovers his ex among their numbers. But with her personality split and scattered, his own survival will depend on reaching through her fragmented mind… Can this pacifist hunter make the truth known before he’s sentenced to death? My Dear Alice is a fast-paced companion story that bridges Seasons 1 and 2 of the gripping Cyber Overture dystopian series. If you like complex character studies, gritty worlds, and shocking twists, then you’ll love D. B. Goodin’s outlander opus. Note: This should be read after Sonorous. This story has been published, but I'm adding it here for Royal Road readers to enjoy.
