《Changed》Chapter 3

"YOU BITCH!" Haley yelled. I groaned as I was pulled from my sleep.
"What's going on?" I asked, groggily rubbing my eyes and sitting up in my bed. Haley, Daisy, Thomas, and David were all sitting on the floor of my dorm room that I shared with Jake.
"YOU STOLE $100!"
"What?" I was super confused now. I knew for sure that Haley didn't have $100 unless she meant like actually stealing. We did that a few times, so that was the most believable but at 7 in the morning?
"IT'S NOT MY FUCKING FAULT THAT YOU'RE A SHIT BANKER!!!!" Thomas screamed.
"Oh..." I facepalmed. They're playing Monopoly. It's become like a tradition. We would all play either Monopoly or Uno like once every week or two unless any of us were on private missions.
Before I even came, Daisy, Haley, Thomas, and David already had the most powerful quirks in the school. They were their own little gang and often did private missions or errands for a few teachers, sometimes even heroes. After a few months, Jake and I were already accepted in the friend group, but we couldn't go on these missions. I also found out what their quirks were.
Daisy's was Waves. She could create and admit sound waves from her hands or mouth, sort of like Jiro's quirk. But, she has better control and has a greater range. She can also adjust the volume and frequency of the wave. But, if she uses her quirk too much, she can go mute for a day or two, but it usually just makes her throat sore which she can just 'cure' it with a few cough drops. And since she can use her hands to project the waves, too, the skin on her hands it always raw which makes it prone to injury. But, if her hands are injured, she can't use her quirk with her hands.
Haley's quirk is Angel's Grace. Her quirk is like mine, but with angel wings instead of devil wings, a halo instead of horns, beams of light instead of darkness, and light swords and guns instead of dark swords and guns. But, she can't do anything that has to do with making people see things as I can. Instead, she can heal people. She can also make her wings and halo disappear. Her drawbacks are also the same as mine.
David's is Shadows. He can bend the shadows around him and create shadow weapons; guns, knives, shields, etc. He can also see in the dark and allow others to see in the dark, but it has a max of 5 people unless he works on it more. However, he can get sick easily and his hands and eyes will hurt depending on how long he activates his quirk.

Thomas's quirk is called Arsenal. It's basically what it's called. He can summon any weapon. They will disappear if they haven't come in contact with him for more than an hour or he wills it to disappear. Right now, he can create 4 weapons at a time and keep them out for 4 hours, but it can be more if he works on it. The drawbacks are if he summons too many weapons or keeps them out for too long, his arms will go numb and render useless. With extreme cases, he could lose a finger or two, and even more, extreme, lose his arm.
I also learned more about Jake's quirk.
His is Wolf and as he said before, he has wolf-like qualities; strength, speed, senses, agility, etc. Jake also has retractable claws that sprout from between his knuckles , and retractable canines. He also can heal really fast. But, he has a more animalistic diet and during full moons, he's forced to change into his most wolf-like appearance and go hunt or vent.
I can also use OFA at 100%, thanks to constant training...and visits to the nurse. I also learned how to fully control and utilize my new quirk.
Finally, by the end of our first year here, the teachers saw that Jake and I were also pretty powerful and could handle our quirks very well. So, they let us join in on the missions. At school, we're referred to as the Six Crows. The teachers don't really care what we do outside of school and our missions, so we can use that time to 'release our teenager hormones'. Or, just act like batshit crazy teenagers. We've snuck out, gotten drunk and stoned, stole things, done graffiti, but we are always, okay mostly, good students. We mostly only participate in these activities after school. The teachers and students know that we're troublemakers so they don't really mind it. Obviously they don't know that we've stolen things before, but they know about getting drunk. Not necessarily how often, but they know that we do it.
Another thing that happened over the past two years is that I got a new boyfriend! Guess who it is. Jake. Yep. A couple of months after we started school, I confessed about my feelings, and surprisingly, he returned them. We started dating shortly afterward. My style had also changed. I'm more ripped jeans and bomber jackets, but I still like, occasionally, to dress in all pastels. I still like it, I'm not completely different. Just more comfortable with different things.
Daisy also got a girlfriend called Charlotte Avery. David and Haley are still dating and Thomas is still lonely af.
Also, apparently, I'm the official leader of the Six Crows. Don't ask me how I don't know either. But usually, whenever we need to make a decision they all turn to me. Apparently, they were sort of chaos before we got there. But now, I'm the leader, Jake is the jock that's actually nice, David is the funny one, Haley is the pretty but still sweet one that can kick your ass, Thomas is the forever single one, and Daisy is the 'cinnamon roll' or the mom of the group. By 'cinnamon roll' I mean, to anyone who doesn't really know her, she acts sweet and caring, but when you actually get to know her, she's still caring but she can cuss you out and scold you for hours as well as be very blunt, which by the way, sometimes the comments she makes hurt.

But- I was shaken out of my though as my phone rang.
"Oh, it's my mom." That shut up my friends, an angry mom was not something you want to see. And she hated it when we were too loud.
"Hey, mom," I answered the phone and put it on speaker so my friends could also hear.
"Hello, Izuku. Did you forget?"
"Huh?" I was confused. Forget what?
"Today's the day that you're going back to Japan, remember?" Oh, right. I haven't talked to anyone from 1-A, well now 3-A since after a month of coming to America.
"Okay, thanks, mom."
"No problem honey." I hung up the phone.
"Can we come, Zuzu?" Daisy looked up from her phone. They already cleaned up the game and were just laying around the room.
"Sure, where's Jake?" I looked around.
"Oh, I think he's in the shower."
"Okay, well, the flight's this afternoon. So, if you want to come, pack what you need for a week."
"Thanks, Izu!" David called as he ran out the door. As you can tell, I've got quite a few nicknames; Zu, though Jake is the only one that calls me that, Zuzu, Zuku, Izu, Izuku. I don't go by Deku anymore, it means useless and I'm not useless, not anymore.
The day passed quickly and we were ready to go to the airport.
"Everyone ready?" Daisy asked.
"Yep!" David confirmed.
"Did you guys tell the teachers?"
"Ummm..." David looked around.
"I did." Haley stood next to him and interlocked their fingers.
"Thanks, babe."
"No problem."
"Okay, no mushy stuff. You're just reminding me how single I am." Thomas complained. We laughed it off and something occurred to me.
"Hey, Daisy, does Charlotte know?"
"Yeah, I told her. She's fine with it."
I nodded, "So, we're ready?"
"Yeah, Zu, stop worrying." Jake walked up behind me and wrapped his hands around my waist and kissed my cheek.
"PDA! My eyes! They burn!" Thomas cried.
"Shut up, you're just jealous that you don't have a girlfriend." I rolled my eyes.
"How dare you! For your information I-"
"Just shut up, both of you." Daisy looked at her watch. "If you guys continue this, we're going to miss our flight," Thomas grumbled but obeyed and stopped talking.
"We're here." I declared as we exited the airport.
"Japan's pretty." Haley marveled.
"Yeah, it is." I agreed. I almost forgot how beautiful it is.
"Almost as pretty as you," David winked at Haley. She just laughed and playfully pushed him.
"Shut up, you dimwit."
"Hey, Zuku?"
I turned around. "Yeah, Thomas?"
"Aren't you worried about seeing your classmates again?" He asked.
"A bit, but I'm over Todoroki and Bakugou. The rest are fine." Yeah, I stopped called Bakugou, Kacchan after Todoroki cheated on me with him.
"If you say so."
"Where's our hotel?" David questioned.
"We aren't going to be staying in a hotel," Daisy said.
"What?" David looked confused. "Then where are we going to be staying?" I shook my head at his stupidity.
"Seriously, David? We're going to be staying at the UA dorms." I told him.
"Ohh..."
"You know, you're really dumb sometimes." Haley looked at him. "But you're cute."
"Whyyy?" Thomas groaned. "It wouldn't hurt to remember that there's still a single person here."
"How are you still single?" Jake held my hand and I smiled. His being there still created butterflies in my stomach no matter how long we have been together.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, you're hot, no homo, and any girl would kill to have you."
"Thanks, man. I needed that."
"Can we like actually go somewhere?" I gestured around us. "And not stand in front of the airport like clueless morons."
"You're in charge and you've actually been here before. And you can remember where things are." David added when he saw Daisy about to object.
"Ugh, I still don't get why I have to be in charge," I whined.
"Cause you know what to do when no one else does." Jake pecked my cheek. I blushed and gave in.
"I guess...well let's go to UA. We can go drop off our bags there. The students should still be in class and the teachers and principle Nezu said that they would meet us there."
"And you ask why you're the leader." Daisy teased. I huffed and turned to walk towards the large familiar building in the distance.

The Mystifying Diviner
Content warning, there is cursing in the story and there will be some pretty heavy sexual innuendos in it also. I don’t really plan to write gore, but there will be fight scenes. Fair warning to readers, it is a slow start. But hopefully it is enjoyable for you to read. Follow the story of an old chef who was lucky to be selected to become a system host. Well maybe not so lucky, because gaining the system killed him. He will be given a system that might not be the best match for him. While also having to deal with a snarky system monitor who might not be that helpful most of the time. He will also use his new found powers to enjoy life in a new younger body. What you can expect from this story is bad writing, poor grammar, and slow pacing maybe. Food, cooking, comedy, slice of life, fighting, exploring, tournaments, scamming and probably face slapping. I mean who doesn’t like a good face slapping? This is my take on a cultivation story, a lot of Eastern stuff will be crammed into with a mix of Western. This story started as a goal for myself to write 60,000 words in a month for NaNoWriMo. I was able to do it even with taking days off and not writing. I plan to keep writing the story, but at a slightly slower pace. I am aiming for 2-3 chapters a week now with about 4-7k words written. This is only posted on RoyalRoad currently, and I have no plans to change that for now. Cover art is by Jack0fheart [Participant in the 2021 Royal Road Writathon Challenge for the month of November 2021]

Reborn Into My Novel
What if you lived in the world of your own creation? As fate would have it, our dear amateur novelist, Ellie, was reborn into the world of her fantasy novel after falling asleep at her computer. Bewildered as she was, the first person that she met was the protagonist of her novel. To add salt to the wound, it was right before the tragedy that decimated his village as per his backstory. Will Ellie save the village (and herself) to risk changing the fundamentals of her novel? Will she instead let the story run its course and leave everyone in the village to their deaths? Disclaimer: This novel is a work in progress and will be updated hopefully at least once a week. Expect minor mistakes (maybe some typos and punctuation errors) since this is the very first draft. The author suffers from perfectionism and impostor syndrome and therefore attempts to use this as sort of a therapy to break away from perfectionism and self doubt. Basically, the author employs a “I don’t care anymore and screw this trash work” mindset just to get stuff rolling and not set any expectations. Basically, basically, the author just wants to write something and not care about planning and quality and all those nice things about writing a GOOD novel since it’s counterproductive. Kthxbye. ps: Thanks for even reading this trash work pps: You’re not trash for reading this trash work btw ppps: Thanks I love y’all so much Shout out! Check out my friend Sosin’s novel!: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/32568/couple-that-cant-touch Credits Cover made with Canva.

We're still tiny, but if you wave to me I'm always happy to wave back and chat! --------------- In a world where dungeons function as the backbone of national economies, dungeon construction is big business. Wealthy nations spend millions to have the best dungeon builders construct labyrinthine edifices full of the most dangerous traps and planted with the strongest dungeon cores in the hope of luring powerful adventurers in to retrieve the treasures generated deep within. Samuel Tolliver works for his father, who runs the finest construction crew on the continent. It is a good life, one that keeps him close to family and that earns him enough money to pursue his inventions when he has a free moment. He even has something of a talent for fixing things and keeping the various bits of equipment running. It should have been the best job in the world. There's just one problem. Sam hates dungeons and wants to destroy them all some day. And he's got the plan to do it, too. But life has a way of throwing curveballs at you. When a series of disastrous events that he himself set in motion culminates in Sam winding up dead, he thought that was the end of it. Until a voice came to him and offered him a deal, one he simply couldn't refuse. Now Dungeon Man Sam has returned to life as the guardian for a strange new dungeon core, one that will turn everything he knows about the world upside down and force him to set aside his hatred of dungeons. For the sake of himself, his friends, and his family, Sam must construct a dungeon like the world has never seen before and defend it against all comers, be they monstrous or adventurous. If he succeeds, he'll get to see his family again. If he fails, everyone he knows will fall into the grave. And somewhere beyond the range of his knowledge, something ancient and terrible stirs and takes notice. Dungeon Man Sam: When all you have is a hammer, you build. --------------- This Is A Work In Progress: This isn't the final form of Dungeon Man Sam, there's gonna be some typos, and things may change between chapters as I realize "crap, I didn't set that up nearly as well as I thought I did". I'll let you know if anything like that happens, and if you notice anything that you think is worth pointing out, feel free to let me know! Hope you enjoy the story!
