《Relentless》Flashback
Advertisement
You remembered everything vaguely.
It all happened so fast and you couldn't tell what you exactly saw.
A shadow was peering over you as you ran out of the park.
The voices grew louder, but it was if you were the only one that could hear them.
They whispered your name over and over, but where the hell were they coming from?
"y/n"
"y/n"
"y/n"
"y/n"
The deep meniacing maniacal voices kept taunting you as they said the most random shit, making you nearly piss yourself.
'What if you weren't hearing these voices, and they were just a figment of your imagination?'
'Perhaps.'
'The things school does to you.'
There was nothing to lose, and you left everything behind besides your phone.
No way in hell were you going to lose almost a thousand dollar phone over something you didn't know was real.
But you didn't realize until you came home.
By that time, everything was back to 'normal.'
Exhausted from running like a maniac, you were on the verge of collapsing.
You hurried to bed and threw yourself onto it, as in pleading "take me!"
Quickly, you drifted off to sleep, not wanting to believe you've gone crazy.
This was all just a bad nightmare..

"Earth of y/n"

"Uhh, Earth to y/n?"
Steve was snapping his fingers across your face in an attempt to catch your attention, and he definitely did.
You shook your head and stared at him annoyed.
"what?"
"Well, you seemed to be stuck in this trance for about 5 minutes. I didn't know what to do so..."
"Oh, really?" you asked slightly embarrassed.
"I'm so sorry."
He sighed, "it's okay."
His attention went back to the note.
"So you won't tell me who's that secret admirer of yours?"

You shrugged.
"It doesn't even say who. I have no idea."
"Well, whoever it is sucks at it."
"sucks?"
He pointed at the balloon.
"C'mon, if he really wanted to impress you, he.."
"or she" he gave you a wink, and you playfully hit the side of his arm.
"Goodness no."
but the idea of a girl hitting on you, caused you to blush a bright pink."
"Who knows, but I doubt it. Girls are usually good at these kind of things. I doubt any chick would've done it."
He does have a point, but who in the hell would ever send me just a balloon, let alone anything.
What if it wasn't anyone from school?
Who would've known it was YOUR backpack, YOUR shit, and YOUR belongings.
Who would've known where you lived, besides Steven?
It didn't add up.
This was giving you a headache and gave up knowing who it was.
'Fuck it.'
You smiled at the small gesture, even though you were slightly creeped out.
But you were thankful you had your belongings back.
"Doesn't matter. Let's go back to work."
"Yes ma'am" he said as he gave you a quick salute.
'cute'.
Things we're starting to go off well, and you've managed to start the project off with Steven swiftly.
After an hour or two of researching about the topic, both of you were tired and have had enough for the day.
"Today we were pretty productive. Good job, Steve-O."
"Steve-O?" He chuckled.
"Cute."
"I'm sure we'll be done with this soon, y/n."
The clock read 3 am.
It was time for him to leave.
He packed his belongings and headed towards the door.
It was too late for him to go out at a time like this.

Although you didn't love of the idea of having company, you had no other choice.
As he was about to exit the door, you called his name out.
"Steve!"
He turned around and stared at you.
"Yes hun?"
"Stay."
"You sure?"
"Yes."
He came back inside and put his belongings on the table.
"I swear I won't do anything bad."
"I know, I know."
He wasn't that bad of a guy.
After getting to know him a better from the past few hours, you got a better understanding of him.
But you didn't trust him entirely either.
"Thanks, y/n. You're the best."
"No probs, Steve."
You moved his belongings to some Cubby's you bought in the summer.
"You're stuff will be here. Just in case you wonder where you're stuff has gone to."
He nodded, and replied with a 'thanks.'
Now what to do with him..
'Where will he be sleeping for the night?'
It seemed that he was thinking the same.
"y/n, mind if I crash on the couch?"
You were about to suggest for him to accompany you in your bedroom chamber, but that would be a bit too much.
Couch it is then.
"Yeah, yeah. I'll get you some blankets."
You left the living room and went to fetch a blue blanket and white pillow for Steven.
"Will that be all?" You asked as you gave him the materials to borrow for the night.
Without even asking, he gave you a quick peck on the cheek, and smiled.
"That'll be all, Hun."
You weren't sure whether to slap him or not, but you couldn't help but feel flustered and left quickly to be unseen.
"What an idiot.."
.
.
.
.
.
Pennywise stared through the window watching as Steven carelessly flirted with y/n without her/him even realizing.
There was a slight tang of jealousy and he pouted. He barely even knows y/n!
But he's already claimed her/him as his.
Mine...mine...mine..
Not certain whether for food, or perhaps more? Pennywise was never sure about his feelings towards anyone, but what he did know for sure was that y/n was special. She would be saved for last.
Y/n was merely food..that Steven happen to interrupt Pennywise from devouring.
The way y/n quivered, shaked.. completely out of his/her mind. The clown licked his lips, and closed his eyes and remembered their brief encounterment.
Poor darling, he/she had no idea what was going on. Has y/n not been taught not to go out late at night, or the terrible boogie man will get them?
Tsk. Tsk.
What a mistake. But what a wonderful mistake.
Pennywise continued to watch the two as they parted ways for the night. This made the clown happy, as they would no longer be together. At least not making any physical contact.
It appeared that he'd be staying for the night, and that bothered Pennywise. He shrugged it off, and decided he'd plan to pay them a visit later on in the night. IT just had to qait for the perfect moment.
He/she won't be expecting..

Home of Laplace
I opened my eyes to an unfamiliar mountain peak standing tall above me like seeing a skyscraper from the street. Soon the chilling burn of the snow that covered me began to invade my senses and I flung my torso upward, sitting up straight. I grabbed my head in confusion as my eyes surveyed the area around me: The corner of a mountain wall stood menacingly in front of me accompanied by thin, dangerous looking paths on either side. The likes of which only adrenaline-seeking psychopaths would use. I turned my head backwards and felt my heart drop as what looked like an infinitely long freefall met my gaze. I was sitting on the ledge of a snow-covered mountain. "CRKKKK" A heart-shaking croaking sounded from above me further up the mountain and I jolted backwards at the impossibly loud sound. 'Shit, wasn't there nothing behind me?' The sound of cracking stone accompanied the heart dropping sensation of descension. As I plunged down backwards, the last thing I saw was the deep-set brown eyes of that blue-skinned monstrosity further up the mountain. ----------------------------------------------------- Levi Laplace is a former genius biochemistry student that died a simple and laughable death on earth. Having studied profusely and written many papers published by large firms he was well-respected and accomplished in his field.

He never ended up falling in love as he dreamed but he did find surprising contentment from dealing with the troubled raccoons he taught on a daily basis. Finding himself summoned to a strange world by unknown forces he is confronted with harsh issues and the struggles of its people.

As well as find his own in this dangerous new world. ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Chapter updates DAILY AT 12:00 PM EST (...Is the goal, sometimes a bit later in the day or the next day at 12:00 instead :P ) Definitely at least once every two days though!

The Dungeon's Escapee
An Earthling, a Summer Elf, and the only male Phoenix in existence walk into a Dungeon... Okay, maybe they don't really do it so much for glory but rather because it's their job, and maybe they weren't really together, and some of them were actually walking out. Enter the world of Cespes, a land of magic, mystery, and monsters. Now, the Ancient Gods have gone silent even as magic enters the Golden Era. The Avish Empire might have fallen four thousand years ago, yet much of society remains fragmented, even as they share more cultural ties than ever before. Adventurers have always formed parties. Now, there are Dungeons, dark, grey blobs that dominate Kingdom maps and kill everything within sight. Yet, beyond even these obvious places of danger entwined with fortune, a forgotten evil rears its head after fermenting for millennia. A call for heroes has arrived. Warning: This story is written in the first and third person with multiple POVs. I will try to publish at least once every two weeks, if not more. Cover art by: [email protected]

Cursed Forest
This is a high fantasy story with horror elements, featuring the map-maker and half-elf Aspen, and his friend Sekafi, a hyena-like humanoid as they are sent on a mission to map out unknown territory and encounter a monster. Soon they're involved in something larger and more dangerous than they ever wanted. What happens next, you'll find out when you read. This is the first story I'm publishing here on RoyalRoad. I wanted to try this site out since it's more geared towards fantasy. I've been at Wattpad for about 2 years under the same name, but since I'm not writing romance I haven't gotten much steam there. This is my latest story, and it's also published on Wattpad in the book called Short Stories. I wanted to start with something new and unfinished here. I'll try and update at least once every other week, sometimes more often. ~RiisingNovels
