Me: Be warned, knives will be flying today. Not pigs, but knives. Oh, and everybody say hello to Ayako.
Ayako: Why did I have to come here?
Monk: Because your a part of all of this too, you know.
Ayako: I guess I can. Here, Debrawriter does not own Ghost Hunt or you. Enjoy the chapter.
Monk: Good job, you old lady.
Ayako: *hits Monk upside the head with her purse*

"Be careful, he wants to kill you." As soon as Mai says it I freeze. "What? That makes no sense." I look over at Naru, and he seems to be thinking about what Mai said. "Lin." Lin nods, seeming to know what Naru is thinking. Then I ask, "Naru, what are you thinking?" "Lin will be protecting you while we are on this case." He says, and I get angry. "I can take care of myself. I don't need anyone protecting me 24/7. Don't worry about me, I will be perfectly fine." He stares at me and I stare at him, causing a heavy atmosphere. We stay like that for several minutes, but Naru will not give up. So, I sigh, giving up myself. "Fine, if you have to have Lin protecting me. I don't care anymore." I say, causing Naru to smirk.
I start to walk out of the room, Lin following me. I keep walking down the hall, then turn a corner, and knowing that there are no cameras that could see me, I quickly hide. I see Lin turn the corner, then look around, and worriedly heads off to search for me. I wait a bit then get out giggling. It sure is fun to mess with Lin.
I start to head back to base, because I did my messing around already. As I am walking, I see a little girl who seems to be just five years old. "They are bad people, I don't like them!" Then she disappears. I hurry into the base, and tell Naru what happened. So, we walk out to the kitchen, where we find our clients, and he asks Mr. and Mrs. Mitsui if he could talk with them. They sit down, and he asks, "Have you had any involvement with a child that died at a young age?"

That is when Mr. Mitsui freezes and then says, "Yes. I have been married before, I had a little girl. Her name was Chino. One day, when she was just four, she was feeling sick, so we took care of her like you normally would with a sick child. But it kept getting worse, so we took her to the hospital. The doctors told us she had acute lymphocytic leukemia. At that point, she couldn't be helped, they said she had a year to live, if lucky. So from that day we started to spend as much time as we could with her. Having fun together as a family, while we still could. She had been lucky and lived for the full year, but then... we lost our little angel. That is what started my ex-wife and I to start drifting apart. Chino died just over three years ago. But, why does that matter?"
Then I tell him about what had happened, and he looks very sad. "So, your saying that Chino is the one doing all of this?" Naru nods and says, "That is the most likely case. She probably thinks that you abandoned her and her mother. It also causes her to hate your new wife, thinking that she is the reason you left." Then all the lights flicker off, making it so the only light we have is the moonlight. Then Chino appears in front of all of us. "You left us, why did you leave daddy?"
He starts to slowly walk over to her. "Sweety, I didn't leave." "Liar!! You are a liar!! You never cared about me or mommy!! You are a meany!!" That is when knives start flying all over the room. While we are trying to dodge them Monk and Lin get Mr. and Mrs. Mitsui out off the room. Then Chino says, "You are all in the way! Leave now!!!" We are all trying to figure out what to do. Then I think about something, that seems a bit off. So I stop where I am and kneel down. "Chino?" She stops and looks at me. "I was told a man is after me, is there a man that is in here with you all the time. She shakes her head. "No, but there is a guy who told me to tell you something. What was it?...... Oh, now I remember. He says that he will have control of your powers, he will come back to life using your powers, then he will rule the world." "Thank you Chino." "Of course. You seem nice, so I won't hurt you. But even if you ask me not to, I will attack these other people until I see that they are actually kind." Then she disappears, and I sigh. "Well, that is worrisome."

Later that night, we have helped clean up the mess in the kitchen and head to our base. Naru looks at the computer screens then he looks towards all of us. "Everything seems to be good for the night. Go get some rest, today has been a busy day." So, I agreed and went to get ready for bed right away. Before we fell asleep, all of us girls talked a bit, so that they could get to know me, and for me to get to know them, better. Afterwards, we turn off the lights and crawl into bed. Before I fall asleep, I think, 'Well, today was crazy. But, who is the man after my powers. Coming back alive after a long time is impossible though, right?'

Exponential Mana Regeneration
When the Change occurred, humanity suddenly found itself with superhuman constitutions and the ability to use mana. All the government leaders had known about it beforehand and had made an announcement, so there was little strife and instead excitement to loot the dungeons that the Change had created. Kyle Anders was incredibly excited when he saw his starting skill, called Exponential Mana Regeneration, but his excitement quickly waned when he realized it was almost useless with his starting mana pool of twenty. He had nearly given up hope on being a mage when his family got him a new skill for his 18th birthday. Suddenly, with his mana pool expanded because of the skill, Kyle’s mana regeneration shot through the roof. But while humanity worked hard to loot dungeons and increase their skills and stats, Change was coming, and peace cannot last forever. The story is currently on haitus. (This story is a work in progress. As the first story that I have ever written, the beginning, especially the first ten chapters or so, needs heavy editing. I have decided to continue writing the story instead of going back and editing the beginning. I hope that despite all its flaws you will still find my story enjoyable.)

The Core, The Recordings of Raan - Fantasy LitRPG Story
The blue screens all around blink like crazy with red letters saying how I'm dead. I rage and wave my hands, but punch nothing but air. Then I remember what I was told, breathe in deeply, trying to steady my mind, smooth my anger, letting the blue vertigo take me with it, letting myself go...Hard-time convicts from a space orbital penitentiary are sent to a hostile planet where odds of survival are minimal. To make things even worse, their memories seemed to be wiped clean. But their killers' instincts are not, and they soon kick in.For a space wars old-timer Raan, it's all different. He remembers everything. And that's a problem. As others fight for survival, he remembers how most of them, himself included, should not even deserve to have a second chance.In a strange new world, as he fights his own demons, he is faced with new ones whose names he does not even know. But giving up is not inside his DNA and fight on he must. For to stop is to die, and to die means he failed, failed himself and all those who still desperately need him.***The Author's Note:This is another in the Core series, the first one being The Wardens of Destiny while there is also a side story The Memoires of Eisen that's exclusive on Patreon for those who would like to support me.The Recordings of Raan occurs after the events in The Wardens of Destiny, and it's a separate thread from the main story. Among other things, I separated it into a new book as it has elements of progressive LitRPG and a fantasy-world setting.Since I'll keep on writing The Wardens of Destiny, this will be one of my side-projects. Eventually in the future, I plan to integrate some of the protagonists in this story with the main storyline.
