《Her tutor》29
Advertisement
I watched as people were drinking... some were smoking and other dancing. Boys playing beer pong on the tennis table and some outside.
"Yo Peyton?" I heard seeing Paxton.
"Woah... didn't know you came to parties." She said and I rolled my eyes.
The fact she was drunk off her ass has Lucas was behind her.
"Oh my god your drunk..." I said and she laughed.
I walked towards the kitchen where Anna was as she got two red cups filled with straight vodka.
"Here you go." She said handing me one.
She guided me and set me on the counter as she took a sip of her drink. She smiled at me before I let the alcohol down my throat which burned a little. I rested my head on her shoulder as she leaned against a fridge.
"Yo Anna. There's a girl wants us to get you with her." A guys said and I frowned.
Anna looked at me first before replying.
"Nah it's okay. I've got a girl already." She said as I felt her grip my waist.
"She'll pay you 100." They said.
"Did you not hear me you fuck heads? I've got a girl now go suck off someones dick." She said getting me off the counter.
She put her arm over my shoulder before leading me out to a backyard.
There were a lot of people... some guys flirting with girls and people playing football in the pool.
"Anna! Over here stupid!" I heard as Anna brought me over to a group of girls.
I recognize some in my classes but there wasn't much about them.
"Peyton. These are my friends. Eva, Emma, Sab and Dev." Anna said as I greeted all of them.
"My god you are beautiful." I heard as I complimented back.

I've managed to make an interesting conversations with them as I needed to pee.
"Ima be right back I gotta go to the bathroom." I said as Anna nodded.
"You've managed to score with a hot one." Dev said as I rolled my eyes.
"She's mine back off." I said and we all laughed.
In the corner of my eye I saw Jackson going inside as I walked away chasing after him.
He was obviously going towards the bathroom. I pulled him back when he looked at me.
"Dick girl Anna." He said and I was out of control with myself when I punched him straight in the face.
"Shut up." I said going towards the bathroom.
I opened the door and see that no one was in here... I looked around the house has I watched people only looking for Peyton. Did she go back? Where is she? God if someone takes advantage of them I gonna kill then when I get my hands on them.
"Hey Peyton." I heard has I got out of the bathroom.
It was Jackson's friends Ethan as I smiled.
"Hey E." I said walking away.
"Hey hey wait can I talk to you?" He asked me and I shrugged.
"Why not. But be quick." I said and he nodded.
He brought me outside in the front yard as he walked me down a sidewalk.
"I wanna talk about Jackson... if that's okay with you." He said and I nodded.
"He told me... about you going to the concert with Anna. And he was really mad." He said and I specifically remembered the day Jackson came busting my door down.
"I could tell." I mumbled.
"He wanted me to tell you he was sorry he got mad at you." Ethan said has I kicked a rock down the pavement.

"It's okay. I Uhh. Forgive him." I said and he nodded smiling.
We arrived back at the house and Jackson came out before he pushed Ethan away from me.
He looked at me and got closer to me has I backed up.
"What first Anna! Now Ethan?! For the love of God your a slut!!" He yelled as he pushed me making me trip over a rock.
"What the fuck?!" I heard Ethan yell as he tackled Jackson to the ground.
Ethan played both soccer and football so he was a lot stronger than Jackson.
Jackson managed to get out of Ethan'a grip. He ran towards me has I watched him get out a pocket knife.
"Come any closer I'll fucking hurt her." He said as I felt a knife point behind my back.
"J-Jackson..." I said as he moved the knife to my neck.
"God your such a slut! And really?! My bestfriend?!. First my enemy and now my bestfriend." He said as he put pressure against the knife.
People were coming out of the house as they were watching us.
"J-Jackson. I know your mad but hurting her is really not the answer." Andre said stepping out.
I felt a tears coming down my face has I struggled in his grip.
I felt him turn me around has he lifted my chin. His hands was on my waist. I felt his lips on mine as I tried to fight back.
He used the knife he had as he put it on my neck making me not moving. If I moved it would cut me and Jackson always has his knife sharp.
"JACK!!" I heard turning my head to see Anna who was furious.
"Anna you get closer I'll fucking kill her." He said has he drew blood in the side of my neck.
"Please stop Jack I'm begging you right now." I said as the pain hit me.
He pushed deeper a little and I wanted to sob at this point.
"Your a goddamn psycho Jack!" I heard has people started to get closer.
All the sudden he was attacked from behind... I landed on the ground. I think I passed out for a second before coming back into reality.
I opened my eyes to see Anna in front of me.
"You okay?" She asked me has I touched my neck to feel a slight cut on my neck.
She helped me get up as a lot of people were staring at me. My neck was full of blood and Anna put her hand on top of it to ease the pain both and for me to stop touching it.
"Fuck off!! Go stare at something else!" She yelled as everyone rushed out.
"We're going home okay? I'll make sure your gonna get home safe." She whispered as made put her head against her chest.
She walked with me to her car as she put me in the passenger seat.
"I am sorry... I left you alone." She said driving.
"It's not your fault..." I said and she let out a sigh.
"Can we just go to your house? No one's home in mine." I said and she nodded changing routes.

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.
