《Sunshine (Sun x Child Reader)》☀️ Chapter 11 ☀️

You take a deep breath and brace yourself.
"One-hundred!" Sun shouts from below. His mechanical body echos through the Daycare, clicking and scraping with every step. "Found youu~"
You hear him tease from below. He's found someone already?! "Aww man!!" The kid calls out.
He's really good.. what if he finds me?! No.. nothing will happen, he's my friend!
One, two, three more kids were found. "This is too easy!" You heard a kid whisper. Where did that voice come from? You lift your head up and look all around the area your hiding in. A boy with short black hair was hiding on the roof, gripping the bars that held the playground together. He must have incredibly strong arms! "Hey I see you down there!" The boy laughed. "Don't snitch!" You whisper. "I won't, I won't!" The boy giggled. You heard the sound of Sun's rattling get closer. Ah he's coming! You duck your head down. Thud!
Suns in the play-place! Should I change hiding spot?! No it's too late to do that.. "Anyone in here..?" Sun teased, tumbling along the tunnels.
You clenched your fists then got as low as possible.
Don't see me, don't see me. In the corner of your eye you saw a large yellow frame crawl through the tunnel. His head turned a full 360 degree angle, his eyes scanning the room. Suddenly he looked upwards.
"Found you." He said, rotating his head slightly. You peaked around the corner to get a better view.
He's right in front of me! Suddenly Sun gripped the cage-like walls and began climbing up at insane speeds. The little boy shrieked then laughed.
Sun grabbed him then jumped off of the ceiling, spinning in the air then landing on his feet.

You quickly duck out of sight. Sun approaches the generator and stands there for a moment, just staring at it.
"Are we gonna go now Sun?!" The boy says, kicking his legs. "Right!" Sun says nervously, looking back at him. You held your breath until he had completely crawled out of the area you were in, then you took a deep breath. That was terrifying! No offense Sun, but you can be scary. Wait.. did that boy save me? You smile to yourself then listen to the other children outside.
Every time he found a child he asked them to go sit in the ball-pit, you pity the kids who were hiding in there since they were found immediately.
"Now go sit and wait there!" Sun exclaimed to the boy he found. "Yeah yeah.." The boy whined.
"How many are left?" One of the girls asked.
"Well there's five of you here, so probably four more." Sun replied.
Four more? I'm not doing too bad. Sun began checking other areas in the Daycare, leaving you alone with your thoughts. I wonder if my mother is watching me, haha.. she's probably just as nervous as I am. But it's weird, she was unusually sweet to me today. Thinking of this made you worry, so you decided to clear your mind. "Found you!" You hear sun shout from below you. "No fair!" A girl yells.
Sun laughs, then walks away from the area.
After a short amount of time Sun found almost every kid, except for you. This is actually stressful.. will he find me? I mean, I'll have to leave eventually.
"(Y/n)~" Sun teased from below. "I'm going to find youu~!" He continued. Crap, he knows it's me! He knows that I know about the generators! He's totally gonna find me!

"Does anyone here know where she is?" Sun asks cheerfully. "Nope!" The boy says. He's not snitching! That's a relief.. "You sure?" Sun says, sounding more serious. "Well.." The boy says, nervously.
He better not! "I mean, if you really don't know.. I guess eat this Sundrop.." Sun whined. "Ah! I know, I know!" The boy shouted. Damn it!
At least he didn't snitch at first.. to be honest I would've caved too.
"She's behind one of the generators." He said, sounding a bit guilty. "Thank you!" Sun said, running off. "Hey! What about the Sundrop?!" The boy shouted angrily. Damn it! Is he gonna check this generator?! THUD THUD. You suddenly heard loud tumbling in the tunnel right outside of where the generator is, the generator were hiding behind.
Crap! You peak outside the generator, looking for any escape. A tunnel! You jump out from behind the generator, the tumbling getting closer and closer.
You sprint into the tunnel, climbing as fast as you could. Tunnel after tunnel you sprinted and sprinted.
He can't find me! He can't! You found a ramp and a slide, you decided to climb the ramp.
You ran across the play-place like a scared mouse and eventually stopped. I'm scared! I'm scared! You stopped running, the tumbling getting louder and louder. You huddled into the corner of the area you were in, tucking your head between your knees.
Your favorite skirt had been torn to shreds, you only just realized this. The tumbling got louder and louder, then it stopped.

The story of how a Cultivation Universe was Conquered by an Interstellar Weapons Platform
What do you get when you cross a world of Magic, Cultivation and Legends with one of Science, Logic and Overwhelming Firepower?\o\ Chaos! /o/Alpha is a sapient AI who's job (and Passion) is the exploration, exploitation and eventual colonization of new worlds for the Federation, a Galaxy spanning empire of Science and Technology. When an unexpected accident deposits this literal War Machine on a planet full of Cultivators and Wizards, chaos and insanity ensues. What Alpha and those around him don't know, however, is that he will soon become the focal point of a millennias long plot that holds not only the fate of the world in its balance, but possibly the entire Galaxy.Ancient Enemies awaken as the Powerhouses of the world converge with Alpha at the center. Get ready, its going to be a wild ride. ------------------------------------------------------- |_+) Come, Read the Story. Watch Worlds be Conquered. (ALL HAIL YOUR NEW ROBOT OVERLORDS!) See Arrogant Young Masters be slapped in the face (by a 170mm Rail-slug traveling Mach 3). Find Grand, Valuable Treasure (which gets put into storage, because what use does an AI have with pill herbs?) Explore Strange and wonderful lands (that will be shortly stripped mined and exploited for all usable resources) |_+) JOIN US!______________________________________ ALPHA-555-12-4412 (Designation: Star Conquer).One of the 5 most powerful and advanced AI-driven Interstellar Weapon Platforms ever built, was programmed with a very simple mission. Travel the stars.Seek out new and hospitable Alien Worlds.Establish a Forward based for their Master's eventual colonization.And, If necessary, crush any and all native resistance it might find. It was a Mission that Alpha took seriously and dedicated its entire being to.However, when Alpha flies a liiiiitle to close to a Blackhole and gets sucked in, it is thrown into a situation that no amount of programming could prepare it for. Now stranded on an alien, yet familiar world, full of dangerous beasts and strange phenomenon its database has no record or explanation for, Alpha must find a way to not only survive, but thrive.And eventually to do what he was built to do. Conquer._____________________________________________________Some things to expect from this Story 1): MC is an AI programmed with a very specific goal. Thus don't expect him to think or act like a human might. That being said, he/it is not bloodthirsty and evil either. He is specifically programed to work with, and indoctrinate Native species when possible. He is not a demon lord come to end the world as they know it, but a Conqueror come to subjugate. 2): MC won't be getting some kind of Humanoid form or suddenly start trying to think like a Human. Although an AI, he is perfectly Sapient, and fully understands both what he is and what is mission is. He is capable of adapting and changing his thought process, but at the end of the day, the Mission is what matters to him. He doesn't see the need or even WANTS to be Human. The only exception to this might be Humanoid body doubles or puppets used in places his main body isn't able to go. 3): This story is a mix of both Sci-Fi and Cultivation novels. MC with NOT be able to Cultivate themselves (for obvious reasons), but using his technology and knowledge, will be able to adapt and repurpose the strange and exotic resources you might find in a Cultivation World to increase his power and keep up with the powerhouses of this Universe. 4): The Intention of this story is to alternate between it and Parasite King, so I don't get burned out writing either one. As such, updates, while not slow, won't be to quick. Bare with me for awhile till the wheels get rolling.
8 203Covenant Sinners: The Origin of a Demon Queen
Demon-slayer knight Hector Aeronwen became an enemy of all humankind after saving a dying half-demon girl out of pity. Little did he know, his impulsive action had forever changed the course of the world and the fates of many. This is the story about Hector's desperate quest and the beginning of the demoness whose destiny is to shake the world to its very foundation. Author's note: At the risk of spoiling too much of this story, I want to reveal a bit about the core idea behind this work of fiction. I set out with the idea to write a story in the perspective of the second in command of a demon lord, which then would be followed up with large scale kingdom buildings and warring states. But then I asked myself: what past do they have between them for the Demon Lord to have so much faith in her second in command, and for him to be so loyal to such a horrible being? So this is my attempt at writing the origin of those two, who, while hated by all races in the world, still have each other as the only confidant to entrust their life to. If you are like me and want to see where this premise, with a vague destination in mind, will lead to, please have a read and give me your valued feedback!
8 84I'm Always Talking to Myself
My name is Zach. I’m a typical bland featureless protagonist type. The kind of guy who has purposefully few defining characteristics so that people can project whatever they want on me. Like Luke from Star Wars or what’s her name from Twilight. Most main characters are like me. Kind of flavorless blank slates because we all secretly doubt that we’re Harrison Ford, but pretty much anyone could be Mitt Romney. Yep. Yes indeed, I do spend basically my entire life running an internal dialog to no one. Usually I’m imagining that there are people listening. Like maybe philosophers from Ancient Greece, or researchers from another planet who act suspiciously like the characters from that Instagram comic with the aliens. Stupid Instagram comedians stealing my internal monologue and turning into a wildly successful enterprise which I would imagine has a vibrant merch dropshipping arm and hundreds of thousands of daily dopamine hits for loyal followers. I basically spend all of my time explaining random things to imaginary people (and aliens, and animals, and household items which have inexplicably gained sentience and frankly have some concerns about this whole existence thing). Honestly, it’s both highly entertaining to me, in that it makes me think about why we humans do all of the bizarre things that we do, but also horrifically exhausting and kind of makes you feel like you’re either, worst cast, losing your grip on reality, or best case, becoming Abed from Community. Anyway, I’m sure that I have some distinguishing characteristics, but, in the interest of hypnotic suggestion I’m choosing to omit them until I’m pretty sure that you have subconsciously come to identify with me, or until I feel like it. (By the way, in case I forgot to mention it, a higher power called Aww Thor or something told me to say that this is a slice-of-life comedy adventure and that it's set in a fantasy world with isekai and LitRPG elements.)

8 148Grim Beginnings
For most, ghosts and monsters were fantasy. For Tessa Byrne-Reyes, they were a constant in her daily life as a reaper. The legendary gods and creatures of mythology were, to her, historical figures. From a young age, she carried the weight of the world on her shoulders, possessing what she saw as a curse but what her family considered a gift. It was her birthright, to use her abilities to guide the deceased to the afterlife of an eternity in peace or in torment. Her classmates viewed her as "the fainting girl" who would pass out in the middle of a lesson with inexplicable injuries. She experienced each death in the town of Belmont Falls, from the mundane to the gruesome. A gunshot wound in the gut, broken ribs, her heart ceasing to beat for several minutes. No one understood what caused these incidents but over the years, she gained a reputation for being abnormal. While Tessa is the freak of Belmont Falls, Fin Belmont, the charming rebel and son of the richest man in town, is her polar opposite. Knowing each other for years but never saying more than a dozen words between them, one night changes everything, thrusting them into each other's unfamiliar and daunting worlds. Together, with the help of her best friend/his ex-girlfriend Elena, they begin to unravel secrets about their town and their pasts, learning that some secrets are better left buried and grudges can be held for centuries.
