《Escape The Night - Season 3》Episode 5, Part 1 - The Dark Side Of War
Advertisement
Previously on Escape The Night, an evil wizard and his wolves payed the guests a visit. Jesse Wellens assisted them from beyond the grave. Stacy and Thomas were chosen for the challenge, and Stacy was killed by the wolves, freeing Jesse from the house.
"The next lieutenant is an evil knight who has served the forces of evil in many wars. She is a fearsome warrior who will stop at nothing to win a battle. She must be avoided if you know what's good for you," Lizzie shut the notebook.
"Well, that's good, isn't it," Dan said.
This notebook says we need to avoid this lieutenant at all costs. What if we are trying to take her down? Any hints for that?
"We don't know how to take her down," Lauren said.
"It would appear not," Willow said. Suddenly, the door swung open, and someone wearing a suit of dark armour walked in, carrying a black sword about half the size of them in their left hand.
"Well, I can tell you," she took her helmet off, "I am the next lieutenant, but I am still a knight. I will be chivalrous. You must defeat two knights in a sword fight in order to defeat me. I am not one of them, but if they lose, I lose power. Two will be selected, however, you will not be voting for who partakes the challenge."
"Then how do we choose who does the challenge?" Joey asked.
"Oh, I will," the knight dropped something and charged towards the guests as they all scrambled away. She managed to grab someone.
"Guys! Help me!" Rosanna cried as the knight dragged her away.
"No!" Joey shouted as her screams for help grew fainter.
"We need to help her," Joey said.

"Where is she being taken?" Phil asked the room.
"I don't know, but the knight did drop this," Willow walked behind the sofa and grabbed a letter.
"How did you notice that?" Tiffany asked.
"I pay attention to the little things," Willow said. She opened the letter.
My liege,
I thank you for bringing the guests to me, however, I am a little upset I can only kill one. I will take them to the training arena outside, and capture as many as you wish.
"Is that it?" Sean asked.
"Yeah. At least we know where Rosanna was taken," Willow said.
"But how many people does this spirit want? She said only two people have to compete in the challenge, why does it seem like he wants more?" Mark asked.
"I don't know, and I'm not sure if I want to," Willow replied.
"Well, should we try and save Ro?" Dan asked.
"We can try," Thomas said.
Something tells me that we won't be able to save Ro, but I don't think she is automatically going into the challenge.
"We can show you where this arena is if you want," Alex said. The group agreed to this, very vocally. Alex and Lauren lead the guests out to find Rosanna.
I really hope Ro is ok. We just made an alliance with her, so I'm praying that she is still alive.
Soon, the guests found the battle arena, and Ro and the knight weren't far in front of them.
"Don't say anything," Alex whispered, "the last thing we need is everyone getting captured."
The group reluctantly stayed silent and watched as Rosanna was dragged into the battle arena. However, Willow noticed that the knight dropped a note. Willow sprinted towards it and sprinted back, only slightly out of breath.

"How did you see that?" Phil asked.
"I pay attention to the little things," Willow said. She opened the note.
I have left the sword in the armoury as per your request. It is with all the other weapons, and is difficult to distinguish, but I have left instructions on how to find it there. Only that sword can defeat me.
"Bit convenient that she dropped that," Willow said.
"Do you guys know where the armoury is?" Lilly asked.
"Yes, we'll take you there," Lauren said. The group left to find the armoury.

Blood & Noodles
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] As they always have, humanity hunts the gods roaming the world, craving the supernatural power that flows within their veins. Even a drop is zealously guarded, passed from master to student through the ages. It is with this stolen power that the Blooded - those with divine blood coursing through them - grasp beyond mortality and achieve prestige, power, and greatness. Yet, for every fraction of power gained, thousands perish, slain by the gods' supernatural prowess. But everything is beginning to change. Eight years ago, for the first time in human memory, a god was felled. Part-time chef and full-time nuisance Orvi wants nothing to do with gods. Living in a derelict city, his only concerns are ensuring his adopted family's restaurant is prosperous and how to best beat the neighbourhood boys in a fight. If he's lucky, he might even snag a date with the farmer's daughter at the market. But even though he cares nothing for the gods or their blood, the world won't leave him alone forever. Because to reach godhood, one must first leave their humanity behind. *** The first arc of Blood & Noodles follows the adolescent Orvi as he attempts to navigate his rapidly changing home and - by his own definition - protect his family. The story is told almost entirely in the first-person, from the perspective of a teenager who isn't always the sharpest tool in the shed. There are tragic elements, especially in the current arc. It's character-focused and driven, though the protagonist's shenanigans are backdropped by a world operating independently from him. Orvi's a generally light-hearted character, and though the story veers into darker territory, I also want it to be able to make readers smile. Action sequences, despite the fantastical elements, are meant to be grounded and clearly-conveyed; Orvi is a brawler, not a warrior. I'm trying to write a story that's enjoyable to read and flows nicely, mainly because it's more fun to write. I'm also trying to improve my writing, so any feedback, whether positive or negative, is welcome!

The Shut In Demon King Finally Comes Out After 3000 Years
The Demon King has decided to quit ruling The Great Floating City of Arcadia and give it to the humans and non-humans. He no longer has an interest after he had gotten everything he wanted in the world. After he left, his subordinates thought that he was already dead. But it was just his puppet. As for his actual body, he slept in his room for eternity since he wouldn't die. The Demon King's favorite toy is his puppets. Because of those, he became a total shut-in in his room. While he was in his eternal sleep, the hero woke him up through his dead puppet. Forcing him to come after her, get out of his room, and destroy that puppet. When he came out of his room, no one recognized that he was the Demon King as he always used a puppet. His subordinates didn't know that he was the Demon King they followed. Concealing his true identity to his followers, he soon realized the current life they've had after he left. A new chapter unfolds as he experiences the new world around him. -- Warning -- English is my second language, so if you found something not right, please kindly point them out. This story will be quite long that even some mysteries won't be solve right away, and why the hell it happened in the first place. The fact that characters in this story have different POV about the mysteries happening in the story doesnt always mean their hunches are right.

Chasing Darkness
Lilith's first time parachuting at night was a disaster. Fictional Gods clashed before her eyes. Caught in the crossfire, Lilith traveled through Space and Time. Her reality was turned into her favorite childhood game, Pokemon. The beginning of journey shrouded in the Dark. A Pursuit of something Greater. *** Author Notes: As a writer, I enjoy the 'How' and 'Why' thing happen in a story over 'What' happens. This will not, however, diminish plot points in the story. Each Arc will be well thought out. This Fanfic explores what it would be like in a reality where Pokemon exist. Most other Fanfics are based on game or anime logic. I will be taking the point of view of a Progression Fantasy. I will try to update every Weekday at Noon Central. P.S. I do this for fun. As I am an amateur writer, I expect complaints and criticism. Anything other than constructive will be ignored. Well thought out Reviews, please. *I Do NOT own Pokemon in any way, shape or form. *I created the Cover in all its pixilated glory.
