《A helping hand (American Dragon: Jake Long Fic)》Ch. 3
Advertisement
Jake felt like Lynn was becoming like family. They were close friends and seemed to connect over having big fates so young. Sighing to himself, he went off to school. He was getting a lot more time off from dragon business lately until now. There was some cartel of magical possessions going around and he was to put a stop to it. That's how he found himself with Nigel thrall.
"Good to see you long!" Jake groaned.
"It's never a pleasure Nigel. What you doing with this stuff anyway?"
Nigel tutted him but looked upset at the thugs below them.
"My family's heirloom was stolen by these insolent trash. I'm here to get it back and put a end to these rascals. Truce?"
Jake nodded, that was unfair to have your family's prized possession taken away. They were able to stop most of the goons but they were stuck in a crate. Nigel's wand was outside and Jake was surrounded by Sphinx hair. Nigel was able to get most of it off but Jake was down.
"Now what?"
Jake looked around and saw tons of magical artifacts.
"Can't you use magic with all this junk?"
Nigel laughed.
"Good idea, but I think you forgot the part where I don't have my wand! Normally if I did, with all these artifacts I would have a large boost to my magic than normal. Too bad wand-less magic isn't possible for me."
Jake widens his eyes at that.
"Maybe you.."
Jake brought up his hand and focused all his power to produce a flame into the second bead. Lynn's face was out of sight but she called out to him.
"What's up long?"
"Can you get to where I am and help?"
Lynn was finishing her training when Jake called.

"Yeah, where are you-"
"I don't know, can you find me?"
Lynn grew worried but answered.
"Yeah, you're scaring me but I'm guessing Sphinx hair has been involved. See you soon."
When the call ended Nigel was staring at long betrayed. Jake raised an eyebrow.
"You know another wizard and have been hanging around her? For shame long for shame!"
Jake rolled his eyes.
"You're not the only magical being in my life Nigel." "Yeah but I was the only wizard! Who is this witch? Someone from Brixingtin? Or Horringford!"
Before Jake could say anything Lynn's portal appeared before them. She walked through easily and winced at the sight of them.
"Oh Jake, you're really down on power huh? You must be another friend in the know I'm Lynn."
Nigel just stared up at the beauty before him. She was graceful and smart. Jake coughed and Lynn turned back to him. "
What do you need me to do-oh, oh my."
She saw all the artifacts and smiled.
"Is that first generation Krenix!"
Nigel sighed lovingly.
"She even knows her historical facts! And there's a jinglehen over there!"
The two geeked out over the artifacts for a moment before Jake whistled at them.
"Not the time nerds! Lynn can you used this stuff to help us."
Lynn huffed at him.
"It's not just stuff Jake! But yeah, I'm gonna need assistance. My mana is only enough to use one of these items."
Nigel nodded. The energies radiating from the items were too much for one wizards magic. It could effect how their magic works and damage it.
"I don't have my wand and long is out of commission. I don't see yours on you either-"
"what happen to your wand?"

Nigel pointed out side of their crate door.
"The miscreants got their hands on it and are using it to create damage to all these artifacts. We need a plan."
Jake sighed but nodded.
"I think I got one. Lynn, stick with Nigel and help him get his wand. I'll create a distraction for you two when Lynn gets us out."
Lynn turned to Nigel and nodded before pointing out a articfact behind him.
"Is that a Duexie di ten?"
Nigel turned at that and Lynn opened the door while he wasn't looking. Jake was about to comment but she stared at him pleadingly.
"Woah! I didn't even hear you say the spell."
Lynn smiled nervously.
"I..am experimenting with spells. I can do plenty with out incantations for them to work. My mentor is helping me learn and create them. I can show them to you later if you want."
Nigel seemed to believe it and they made their way to the wand.
"Come on, look how they flick my wand around like it's nothing.Quite enough of that, return my wand from his hands, flip it back with the power in my hand."
It wasn't working since it was in a new holder. Nigel repeated his words three times but he was away from his wand long enough. Lynn grabbed his hand.
"Together."
He nodded.
"With powers of dawn, bring back thy wand!"
It worked and Nigel felt his mana course through him as he held his wand. Lynn patted his arm to stop his celebration. The thieves were staring at them.
"Well, this is a sticky situation, but not enough. From fish to sea, make my enemies sticky!"
Nigel said as their enemies were sticking to the walls or each other. Lynn hummed.
"Nice one, lets get to the artifacts. We can work together and help Jake."
When they went back to the crate it wasn't a pretty sight. Jake was back his dragon self but he was still weak. The leader was a dark mage.
"Fools are you young warlock and witch. You can not compare to my power."
He was holding a artifact too which didn't help them. Lynn sucked away from his spell and took cover with Nigel.
"What now, I don't think we have enough time to think of a proper spell."
Lynn smiled.
"But what if we did?"
She held out her hand which was holding a time glass. He clasped her other hand easily.
"With this power in hand, turn back the times of sand."
Nigel was surprised Lynn knew so powerful spells but it worked.

Pawns of God
Five Lines PitchJoin Mark in his fight against a God and change the game's destiny! Delve into a slow-paced story focused on the progression of the main party and the development of the world. Mark himself will be narrating his life inside the game, and to a much lesser extend outside. Guild building, economy, and strategy are the central pieces of the novel. Mark is not overpowered, he will have to build his own power through action-packed battles, trials, traumas, love, and death. Accompany him, the healer and the strategist, an agent of chaos, in the adventure of his life. Without further preamble, I will let Mark take the mic. SynopsisHi! My name is Mark. This is my story, my life as I live it day after day. I’m in my thirties, and there’s nothing I love more than playing online games. I’ve just joined the action on the newest VRMMO game, Pawns of God. An immersive experience you can play while sleeping. Of course, as a game that takes pride in its long development and technological advances, everything inside seems and feels real. Beware, this is not a game-turns-real story. I love my own world and I would detest being summoned into another one. If that ever happens, I’ll just quickly take my life and be done with it. I play with my friends, in a party of 5. We have taken several roles, but lately, I've come to love being a healer. It's my secret ambition to someday be the shotcaller. I am not overpowered. If there is any bug or exploit in the game, they are yet to be discovered. Anyhow, for a game of this scale, the company is pouring all of its resources into test servers, QA, and beta tests. I don’t expect to find any, so I’ll be playing the game just like any other person. I must say, though, I am easily distracted, as you will immediately notice once you start. I'm working on it, I promise to improve! I am no hero. Being in my 30s, my heart is too old for this shit. I wouldn’t mind being one, of course. Who hasn’t dreamt of it? Either way, I’m not doing any grand quest to save the world. Whatever the game throws to their users, I’ll be there to experience it. Most of my life, at least the interesting parts that I’ll be narrating, happen inside the game itself. Rarely, there will be some IRL (In Real Life) chapters. You’ll understand, however, that as a freelance software developer, there is not much I can entertain you with when outside the game. Did I say I love games? Well, I’m also a fan of LitRPG literature. You know, journeys of magic, relationships, personal development, items, skills, discovery… In the spirit of not overwhelming my public, I’ll condense each chapter into circa 1500 words. You might have noticed some tags over this story, let me elaborate. I like to swear. I’m not shy when it comes to cursing my enemies, friends, or even myself. When there’s blood, I tell it as I see it. And… it hurts to admit it, but I’m not a casanova. Of course, this doesn’t mean that I won’t ever find love. So, in case I do end up finding it, let’s keep my sexual options open. As for traumas, none yet, but the future is vast and unknown.

8 181Dark Winter
It is always darkest before the dawn. After the divorce, Katie Fox was forced to live with her mother in New York after the judge ruled that her father, a former Army Ranger, wasn’t stable enough. They called him ‘that crazy bunker guy’ or ‘that paranoid freak.’ Whatever they called him, Christopher Fox was a Prepper. He taught those willing to listen how to survive in a catastrophe and how to prepare for the end of the world. More than that though, he was her father and she would rather spend her life in his underground bunker than another minute in that New York highrise. So, she ran away. The date is November 28th, Black Friday and hell has been unleashed on the world. A freak storm mixes with a deadly virus that turns its victims into mindless hunters of flesh. Katie will have to use everything her father taught her to survive and reach the safety of his underground bunker. Note from the author: Thanks for stopping by! The plan is to upload a chapter every Saturday or Sunday (as my schedule allows). Hope you enjoy the story!
