《The Pig and the Frog》TEN
Advertisement
I'm full of excitement when I wake up this morning. I quickly go to my bathroom and put on a black dress and black converse. So fancy right? I laugh to myself as I brush my hair and throw it up in a ponytail.
I look in the mirror and shrug. Nothing can make the smile on my face go away. I hope at least. I rush down the hallway and grab a banana. As I go to leave, I run into Caleb.
"Oh sorry Caleb!" I apologize, and go to leave. I can see him scowling at me, and he rolls his eyes. I shrug, once again, and leave the house.
I make my way to school, casually eating a banana. I hope I can see him. I really really do! Maybe he will be here today? He didn't seem sick yesterday, so why would he not be there?
I get to the school, faster than yesterday, and try to keep a smile on my face. But my face drops after I walk inside. I forgot to take my medication! Oh geez Tris, why did I forget. Out of every single day, it had to be today!
I turn the corner to get to my locker, and I see the dark skinned boy, Uriah, standing there. I can see him smirk as I walk over to there.
"Um Uriah?" He blinks and I half smile. "Why are you smirking?" He shrugs and laughs it off. A confused look must be in my face right now.
"Oh...just watching all the guys stare at you, as if you were candy or a trophy." I blush and turn around. I see a few people turn away, but that might just be a coincidence.
"You don't mean that. You're lying. I know I'm not pretty, so no need to say that." His face falls, and I look down, not able to keep eye contact with him.

"What do you mean Tris!" I'm frightened my his high tone, and I take a step back. He seems to notice because he calms down a bit. "What do you mean you're ugly? I bet when Four sees you, he's gonna like you!" I smile a bit, but hide it. Or try to at least.
"And he doesn't like anyone!" He adds. I doubt that's true. He probably has dated every girl in this school. So I just nod. I turn back to my locker, and open it up.
Uriah's eyes glance into my locker before I have the chance to hide that picture. "Hey! He looks familiar!" My hands start shaking, and I don't know why. "I just can't put my tongue on it!"
I fake laugh a little and grab a book and close it. "Doubt it." I say, trying to cover up. "He lived in...um...Cali with me." He nods, but I'm not sure if he's completely convinced. I smile and walk away, hearing that the bell has rang.
And I'm still wondering where Tobias is.

ALL HUMANKIND died thousands of years ago... …but the xenos still worship them as GODS. Today, hundreds of alien civilizations thrive in the gods’ lost cities and fallen megastructures. One Empire has learned to harness the remains of humanity's forgotten technology to reconnect the distant worlds... and dominate them. Eolh is an old, jaded, avian thief who lives in the dark underbelly of a conquered city.

No one dreams of fighting back—for the Empire wields the weapons of the gods: warships that fly, robotic constructs that hunt, and rare mysteries scavenged from the tombs of the gods.

Ogre Tyrant
Tim wakes up to find he is naked and alone in a fantasy world. However, he is not as alone as he first thought. There are other people running around all over the place fighting monsters for a living. Unfortunately for Tim, he seems to be one of those monsters. Desperate for any degree of safety and normalcy he can find, Tim must tread a fine line between freedom and subservience to survive. All while trying to keep alive a trio of adventurers hellbent on becoming legends. However, unfortunately for Tim, he is not the only one from earth to awaken in this world and the other Awakened aren't nearly so benevolent. Warning: The protagonist begins the story quite cowed and meek but progresses into a more assertive and situationally dominant personality. This is partly due to growth, but also a result of the character overcoming initial shock and longstanding depression. If you think I could have handled a segment better, by all means, point it out and provide your reasoning and suggestion. Everyone's experience of depression is different, and Tim's is a close representation of my own, so it won't necessarily 'vibe' with everyone. Chapters are around 15k words and released approx 1/week over the weekend. Has been reduced to around 7.5k to 9k to better fit my schedule.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
