《The Rejected Royal》Joke's On You
Advertisement
"What do you mean 'I'm dangerous'?!" I yell at my newly found cousin.
"I don't know. When your parents took you away they said you were. And that, that's why they needed to take you away." He says with his hands up in surrender.
'?' I yell at him through the mind-link. It's quite easy to mind-link different people. You just have to be touching the arm of the person you're mind-linking for the first time. Then you can mind-link them whenever. Not everyone can do this, but Jessica and I can.
"How did you do that?!" He asks, shocked, his eyes are basically bulging out of their sockets.
"Let's talk inside." I say after looking around at my surroundings, and before grabbing Jessica's arm. Jessica is in her own world right now. I know because she can't move on her own, and she's staring at mid-air.
"Hey, be careful she's my mate!" Brian says before growling possessively.
"And I'm her best friend."
"Hey, be careful shes my mate!" Brian growls. I think he should stop being so possessive over me. I am not a toy!
"And I'm her best friend." Emily makes a come back.
'!' I mind-link Emily.
'.' She answers back.
When we get to Brian's house Emily and I stop in our tracks and stare at the house. Jeez! I don't even think it is a house!
"Welcome to mi casa." Brian grins while opening his arms out and walking backwards.
"Wow!" Emily says with wide eyes. On the other hand, I just stand there looking back and forth between Brian and his house in awe. This guy is just getting hotter.....
Once I get out of my trance, I look at Jessica drooling over Brian. When she turns around and looks at me, I smirk and wiggle my eyebrows, teasingly.

'?!' She acts dumb in the mind-link. I roll my eyes in my mind, and go back into reality.
"So are you coming in, or what?" Brian asks teasingly.
"Oh, yeah." Jessica and I say together in unison, before looking at each other and chuckling. Once we enter the house, there is a huge entry way. On the right there are two huge wooden doors, and on the left the same. They're both closed so I can't see anything inside. Someone gasps from behind me and I turn around frantically.
"What's wrong?!" I ask Brian.
"Can't you hear that?" He asks, freaked out. He puts his hands to his ears and searches where the sound is coming from.
"Um...... no we can't. Are you ok, Brian?" Jessica asks him, worriedly.
"I'm completely fine...... oh, maybe you didn't know. Everyone knows this, an if you're going to be living with me..... I've gotta warn you..... this house, is um....."
"Spit it out!" I interrupt Brian.
"It's um... haunted." He says, then closes is eyes like he's afraid of what our response would be.
"Are you serious?" Jessica asks him nervously. He slowly nods, and Jessica freaks out running around the house. She hates ghosts. Brian quickly shakes his head 'no' while trying to stifle a laugh. I smirk at him.
'.' I mind-link him and his eyes widen, but then he tries to stifle more laughter.
"Wait! Before we forget. How did you mind link me?" He asks, his voice full of curiosity.
"Jessica and I have this 'power'," I put quotation marks on power.
"and it won't make sense to tell you, soooooo I won't." I state calmly. He looks at me, confused, but we just ignore that and walk towards where the big doors on the left side are. There, inside of what looks like to be the living room, is the princess of weirdness. If you haven't noticed yet, I'm the queen.

She's running all around the huge room like a mad woman, but stop once she sees Brian. Next thing you know, she's on his back shouting, "Piggy back ride!! As the princess of weirdness I demand you give me a piggy back ride!!" That is the most hyper I have EVER seen her. What happened to her. I guess I'll ask her once she's done being hyper.
'?' I mind-link Brian, worriedly. What if he doesn't. This is the real Jessica, if he doesn't like her. We will both leave.....again.
'.' I grin at his response. I gasp loudly for both Jessica and Brian to hear.
"What's wrong?!" They both ask in unison. I guess Jessica is back. Remind me to ask about her recent hyper attack. Wait, who am I talking too?
"Jessica, there's someone behind you.... She's really pale, and has blood around her face. I think she's a ghost...." I lie, acting like I'm freaking out.
"AHHHHH!" She screams while jumping in the air, and Brian catches her bridal style. Jessica didn't look behind her, so she didn't have any proof that there was someone actually behind her.
"That's cruel. Jessica, Emily and I were just playing with you. This house is not haunted. Let's get you to bed. You'll be sleeping in my room, unless you don't want to. What do you want to do?" He asks Jessica. Jessica gives me a short glare, and then goes back to thinking about where she wants to sleep.
"Can I get my own room, for this week, and then I'll think about it again next week." Jessica asks sweetly. This is kinda sweet. I've never seen Jessica look at anyone like that, or even talk to someone like that. She really likes him.
'.' I threaten Brian in the mind-link, and glare at him in real life.
'.' He says sweetly back, and grins at Jessica. He starts to go up the stairs, and I follow him like a lost puppy. Brian puts Jessica down, once we reach a white door. I know Jessica and I will probably decorate that door tomorrow.
"Ok, there are two rooms. Sorry Emily, but Jessica gets to pick first." I groan and waits until Jessica picks. She starts walking towards the first door. She shakes her head, and walks towards the second door. Once she opens that door, she gasps.
"What's wrong?!" Brian and I shout in unison.
"I love it. I get this one!" She yells while jumping on her bed.
"I don't mind, I like this one." I say grinning at my room like an idiot.
"Awesome. So Jessica, you could rest, or if you want a tour of the place, you could come with us." Brian says. He keeps giving options to Jessica, but not me. C'mon!

Rise of the First Necromancer
Asrael Nessarat awakes on a sandy dune with a mouthful of sand and nothing but tattered rags in his posession. As the High Magus of the school of Necromancy, he once aspired to prove to the Emperor that magic still held a place in their society. But that day came, passed and inevitably accelerated his kind's downfall. Now; they are hunted, strung up and burned on pyres throughout the Empire by the Emperor's holy Inquisition- an efficient and ruthless army hell-bent on bleeding every last droplet of magic from the lands. With nothing but a mouthful of sand and tattered rags; Asrael is determined to seek the one thing his cold, still heart desires. Vengeance. This story can, at times, get very dark. It is not recommended for the faint of heart. This is not a story of an overtly powerful wizard who can pulverize his enemies from across the world, nor is it in any way, shape or form a joyous tale. We follow Asrael as he and his companions explore and seek to change an unjust world, where kindness and acceptance are exceptions, rather than the rule. If you are looking for a story to inspire hope or joy, this is not it. If you wish to read about likeable, heroic people, turn around. If you wish to see good battle evil, where the cut in between is clear, then this is not for you.

The Heretic Legion
Cover Art: Undead Master by Changling Assassin. Located at: http://fav.me/dbm60ex Used under license Creative Commons attribution non-commercial 3.0 per bottom right of the linked page. Summary: Just the story of a necromancer and his eventual army. Currently, the only major thing of note is a pretty fleshed out magic system. No set list of spells or specific incantations. Just rules similar to the laws of physics, within those laws you can do whatever is possible. Updates: I work Sunday thru Wednesday and updates tend to revolve around my scheduled days off. Currently, I release content as I feel it's ready for release because that's what I myself would prefer from an author. Warnings: This story is graphic. blood/necromancy magic that requires self-harm to use. explicit descriptions of sexuality. (though fairly tame outside of the marked chapters, at least compared to said chapters) and is generally darker in tone. If you're concerned you might start to read only to be turned off by these elements. See 7. Teetering on the Edge for an example of the graphic nature of violence or 9. Explicit Content for a fairly self-contained example of the most explicit of the sexual content.

Four story anthology
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] [participant in #NaNoWriMo] Preface: This fiction will contain four different stories set up as a challenge for myself and to get better at writing. The challenge for royal road writathon is a 55.555 word goal while the nanowrimo challenge is 50.000 words. Reader suggestions is turned on, feel free to point out errors I missed and I'll fix them up! Chasing sun, napping softly: Cultivation/Xianxia genre. Some parts will poke at the ridiculousness of the Xianxia gerne. We follow the life of a magical fox monster, who doesn't like how the cultivation world works. Said beast seems to have more knowledge than is usual for normal magical beasts. In it's infinite wisdom it decided to search for the main character of the cultivation world to have a cozy and safe place beside him. Our fox will act as a "wise beast" to coast along on the main characters rise to greatness, all for peace, happiness and that amazing napping spot in the sun. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing in first person. Comedic effect between talking vaguely and sounding wise. The cost of heroism: A story more centered around fights and mental health of hired mercenaries/heroes. The world is infected with an eldritch corruption. Humans are trying their best to explore and clear out wilderness and the dungeons hiding in them to establish new cities. Lords seek for hired hands to do the professional work. Thanks to the setting, the story will show how awful pasts are the norm and how pragmatic people became thanks to that. People exchange their sanity for riches, fame and gods acceptance. Interpersonal relationships change drastically and quickly. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing grim scenes/imparting a feeling of how grim the world is. Writing fight scenes. Showing different mental states. Describing their influence on people during fights, walks or even after successful or failed campaigns. Who will be the next powerhouse? : A story about a gaming show, it's host Staan and the different participants. Stereotype characters, stereotype backstories, silly challenges and quizzes. The winner of those challenges gets powerups for their power system. Be it magic, ki, psychic power or anything else imaginable and unimaginable to reach the power of gods. The challenges for myself with this story: A softer tone for storytelling. Making the reader smile and enjoy themselves. A different try at slice of life story. I was left behind on earth as my family conquered another world and enjoys riches, but that's okey because I got a cheat too! : Stereotypical Isekai story parody twisted into an Urban Fantasy story. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing over the top and overdramatic scenarios/scenes Writing in first person. Walking into stereotypical scenarios and making them more dramatic/giving them a twist. Different type of humor.

Knights of the Partition
We like to think there are no monsters. No magic, no gods, nothing waiting in the night but the stars and cold, hard science. It’s a comforting thought. It isn't true. Magic isn't common, mind you.

But rare or not, the magic isn't gone. The great Working that protects us from the horrors of the past does not have the power to destroy such things. Instead, it created the Partition, a tapestry of worlds beyond the boundary of our own. There the magic roams, searching for a way to come back. I am a Knight of Avalon. One of the protectors of the Partition. How did I get this job? Poor decisions, mostly.
