《No Longer In the Fields, 45th Hunger Games (COMPLETED)》Chapter 19

Viscera's POV
Chaff wakes me up as I guess he wants to move so Siren can't find us, so I wake up and I pack up my stuff. We have a very interesting alliance, we don't totally trust each other, like yesterday I was sharpening my katana and he kinda started walking away and he went to 'gather', taking his knife with him. Maybe I'm interpreting this wrong, but it's just a little weird. "Where are we going?" I asked Chaff,
"We are going up the mountain,'' he answered, "Got the blanket?" I shrug,
"No... I never had a blanket." I raise an eyebrow at him. He looks at me, confused,
"I thought you did..." I shake my head. I think Chaff is losing it, and I don't mean that jokingly. We've all seen people die in front of us, Like me for example, I saw the girl from 1, but I think it is really affecting him, badly and probably the worst. We argue for a bit and we decide once we see snow we should camp where we are.
As we are walking I begin to worry about Chaff, as he hasn't lost his memory quite yet, only him zoning out. We walk for most of the day until we see snow up ahead, it's like the terrain just shifts right there, like in some kind of fantasy book. On this side, all the plants are alive and the trees are huge, while on the other side everything is just poured in snow and dead, and it's kinda beautiful in a weird way.
I then realize where everyone is, everyone is not gonna be up in the snowy area of the mountains, as they'll freeze to death, but they aren't gonna be in the field as it is too open, and everyone left is smart and isn't gonna die easy, which only makes me feel worse.

As the sun sets, I see Chaff zoning out again. I shake him a little, "O-oh, sorry." he shudders, I laugh,
"Your fine." He gets up and sorts the supplies, I look at the sunset as I haven't seen anything this beautiful since I got in here.
"Dinner is served!" Chaff puts a piece of bread and a few peaches and I laugh,
"Gourmet." I eat on my log stump like I'm eating a luxury dinner like before the games, before the violence, the death, the cold. I lick my fingers to get all the delicious juice, as I never know if it will be the last thing I taste before blood.
I look back and see that Chaff must've gone and gathered as I'm sure the only one getting sponsors is that girl from 4. I hear rustling in the bushes and I lunge for my katana but I'm too late when I get a face full of dirt and I hear a huge roar from behind me, which is like nothing I've ever heard before, and a cold chill goes down my spine after another roar is heard right behind me. All of the sudden the thing on top of me goes limp and I see Chaff rip a knife from the thing's chest, spurting blood everywhere.
I am lost for words as I see the killer in Chaff's eyes, and when he looks at me I jump up. He looks down at his hand and he drops the knife and stumbles back, looking at the blood on it. I grab his arm and he jerks it back, "I'm fine Viscera." He snaps, "I'll take watch." I stare at him, lay in the sleeping bag I got from the feast, and fall asleep, keeping my katana close.

Good Guy Necromancer
Necromancers are murderous, repulsive, utterly ungodly creatures. And then there's Jerry. Jerry is a novice necromancer who treats his undead warmly, seeks to befriend people instead of harvest their bodies, and doesn't mind cracking a skull or two when needed. He genuinely is a good guy—too bad nobody believes him. Jerry tries to settle down, wanting nothing but a peaceful life for him and his undead—and, when that doesn't quite work out, he sets out to adventure. He will make friends, each unique in their own way, and together, they will travel through a variety of striking environments; from a tiny village, to the land of the dead, to a jolly archipelago, to a kingdom on a beanstalk. To save a world that shuns him, Jerry must stand against a large organization of arrogant, mighty wizards. He strives to become stronger while maintaining his kindness, only to realize that, maybe, gentle hearts make the greatest necromancers. This is the story of a delightful man in a harsh world—full of warmth, action, and wise-cracking bone puns. Chapters are usually 2-3k words, and updates are 3/week: Mon, Wed, Fri. If you're looking for another fun, action-packed adventure, check out Cultivator vs. System by yours truly, available on Kindle, KU, and Audible. But read Good Guy Necromancer first.

8 136The Badboy Prince Just Can't Resist
"Why are you so nervous?" "I'm not.""Your pupils dilate every time you look at me. What are you so worried about, sweetheart?" He asks me, his warm breath fanning my ear. I rolled my eyes, and he took that as a response. "Why are you so afraid of me, Annalise?""I'm not," I repeated in a firm tone, trying to stop my body's temptation of leaning into his touch. "Then why can't you think properly while so close to me?" Damien's lips were now grazing my ear. His strong arms expertly pull me in, arms crossed around my waist ready to spin me back out. I despised the way he made me feel when we would dance, as if I liked being under his lead- it infuriated me. "I can think just fine." I spin myself back out, trying to take control. He chuckled,"This is why I find you so intriguing. You want to resist me, and I haven't found somebody like that before. It's quite frustrating, having someone who doesn't bend to my will."The nerve of this man!I scowled,"I'm not just going to follow your every command. Being a Prince doesn't mean you gain-""I could give you anything. A title or land, and any other girl-""I'm not just 'another girl' who will bend to your standards. I don't have time to pamper your ego as if you own the school.""In fact, I do. Thank you for reminding me sweetheart, sometimes I forget." Arrogance laced his tone, sending my fury into overdrive."I am nobody's sweetheart, especially not yours."His laugh sent vibrations through my body,"You have never failed to amuse me. I think we should get to know each other better." I felt his lips against my ear curl into a sly smirk.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Cover by @afranticdreamer#4 romance #1 royal 9-29-2020#1 kingdom 3-30-2020#3 king 4-3-2020#1 princess 4-13-2020#1 new 5-14-2020-All rights reserved -Kick back and enjoy a book with a little bit of mystery, magic, humor, and don't forget romance
