《Alone (Joocie X Laff!)》10
Advertisement
Joocie's point of view:
My eyes began to flutter open. Where was I? Then I remembered, I was in that new room given to me by Laff... It was at this moment that I realized, I had missed sunrise. He was going to be angry with me for sure. I mean he did tell me not to miss sunrise...
I immediately rushed out of the room and ran to the place I was meant to meet him at. He looked pretty upset to me.
"You're 2 hours late. Where were you?"
"I'm sorry.... I overslept..."
"I see.... I was going to spend today training with you, but it appears that we have a battle to win. Normally I wouldn't let someone with as little training as you fight, but we need more soldiers. You're coming with us, and I expect you to be prepared for this battle."
"Y-yes sir..."
"Good. Be outside in 5 minutes tops, or you're going to be in huge trouble."
I didn't say waste a minute; the second he said that I was out the door. There was hundreds of men and women lined up in rows, all prepared to fight. The only person who wasn't, was me.
Not even 10 minutes later we were marching to somewhere. I didn't even try to ask the king anything, afraid of what would happen if I did. Times like these are better to just keep your mouth shut, you know?
Before I even knew what was going on, bullets went flying. I kid you not. The sky was full of smoke from bombs being throw everywhere. Makaes doesn't have very many guns, so we use swords instead. That's a big issue here, they have an advantage. Guns are quick an easy to use, but swords.... Not so much.

"We may not be able to do this Laff! We have to get out of here!" Julio screamed.
He was right. We couldn't possibly last much longer with one of our soldiers hitting the ground every 2.4 seconds.
"As much as I'd hate to, you're right. EVERYBODY OUT OF HERE! QUICK!"
They immediately rushed out of there, only a few making it back with us. We left with almost everyone, and came back with less than half. That battle could be the reason that we lose this whole thing, and we CAN NOT lose this. I don't want to go back to working for the king of Pika! Everytime I get near the kingdom u can smell the stench of evil all round... I really can't go back to that.
We'd have to accept one thing; we couldn't win this... Not even half of us remained, and Pika's army had somehow grown in only a few days. Maybe they combined with Willow during that time? I don't know, but I don't really want to find out... This is all too much, and it's stressful for all of us.
Only been here for a little while, and I already feel like I've lived here my whole life.

Polly and Drake
Drake has been searching for a job as a personal guard, but wherever he turns, he is kicked out without fail. It's not that he's terrible with weapons, or inattentive. It could be because of his obvious racial heritage. Or because of Polly. With his funds dwindling, the only remaining option is to become one of the Cursed: poor souls that work for the Dragoneye Guild. In other lands, they may be called adventurers, saviors or even heroes, but not in the White Desert. Here, they are shunned and ignored. Depraved people who forsook their humanity for money and fame. With this choice, Drake may not only fall from grace, but also become one of only a few thousands capable of unearthing the secrets of ancient times. If he could get this guardsman notion out of his head. May contain gore, violence, profanity and traumatising content. Taking another shoot at this writing business. I write for fun and when I have time. There is no plan. The story may change drastically from what it starts out - or not. We'll see what happens. Currently, I'm aiming for a Slice of Life with LitRPG elements at a later time.

MAZE - The Endless Quest
As all kids do, Hera wanted to be an explorer. Sadly when she turned 18, she discovered that her stats and lack of skills made her fail the requirements to become one, and she went to work on a bookstore. That should have been the end of her story. But when she wins a lottery to have her level up, she discovers a hidden skill and a rare one at that. The system gave her dream back, and this time she is not letting it go. ############################## The story is about a world where game-like systems are the norm. Everyone has a level, status, and even skills are a common thing. If your stats are good, you can also become an explorer, someone that ventures inside a place called MAZE, a dungeon of sorts filled with monsters, creatures, and things that the natural world is missing, such as magic and demi-humans. The story follows Hera, a woman who wanted to be an explorer, but her status were too low to become one. One day she wins a raffle that allows her to level up for the first time giving her the chance to achieve her childhood dream. It's more about how things work and what you can do with them than about power or revenge. The rhythm might be a bit slow for some, but that is the idea. I want to give sort of a slice of life feeling to most of it.

Intercessor
"In my defense, I hadn't actually been trying to get hit by a truck." Artemis wakes up alone in a giant futuristic facility with no hint of where she is, how she got here, or what this means. Yet within two weeks, she is shot at with all the guns, a voice is beginning to speak in her head, and she is tormented by a seemingly sentient and possibly trollish space Roomba. Her only hope is Scarlet, another girl who is a complete stranger and almost shot her in the head. Oh, and she has fox ears and a tail. That is possibly worth mentioning. Artemis is not a nerd. She has never heard of the isekai genre, she can't fight worth a damn, and the blue-collar skills she learned at her community college are absolutely useless in a universe where technology is often indistinguishable from magic. She only has one thing going for her: A mysterious ability to interface with highly advanced technology left behind by the Antecessors, the long lost precursor civilization with technology that no one has been able to adequately replicate. Finding herself in a universe where civilizations are locked in an interstellar Cold War, where societies are so stratified that the aristocracy commands fleets of starships while slaves wash clothes with their hands, Artemis decides to run away from it all. She has a ship. She'll find a crew. She'll find a way to make a living at the fringes of civilization, learn how to cope with danger, and survive the affections of a universe where everyone is a cute girl with animal ears and tails. Welcome to Intercessor. AKA Kemonomimi Yuri Space Fantasy. Commissioned by Shaderic. Please leave your sense of shame at the door.
