"How do you two have voices today?" Pinoe asks with a smirk.
"What do you mean?" Lindsey asks.
"With the way you two screamed and moaned last night I didn't expect either off you to have a voice."
Everybody laughs and Lindsey and I both get as red as tomatoes.
"Oh like you guys aren't loud." I say.
"We may be, but you could've gotten another room." Ash says.
"We didn't have time." Lindsey says.
"You'd want to celebrate to if you just got engaged." I say.
"Alright ladies enough teasing the newly engaged couple. Dawn's waiting for everyone outside so let's go." Jill says.
All of us leave the hotel and meet Dawn in the parking lot.
"Cairo what did you do to train when you lived here?" Dawn asks as we are stretching.
"WAIT" Kelley yells.
"What Kels?" I say.
"Before she answers that will we have to do her workout?"
"Maybe." Dawn says.
"Well I would row 3 miles..." I say
"Like a rowing machine?" Kling asks.
"No. I used a canoe...then I ran 4 or five miles then I swam in either the ocean or a lake." I say then Pinoe covers my mouth.
"We don't need to hear anymore. I don't want to do any of that shit." She says then removes her hand from my mouth.
"That was just a warm up. Try working out with equipment made of wood and stone."
"And why wouldn't you use proper equipment?" Carli asks.
"My trainer made me do it." I say.
Dawn then says we are working out on the beach which a couple of the girls were happy about. They weren't happy about the fact that we had to run the 3 miles to the beach and once we made it to the beach we did Dawn's workout

"I wanna know who can stay in the cold water longer Carli or Cairo." Ash says.
"I'm down if you are" Carli says.
"Wanna make a bet?" I ask.
"What is the bet."
"Winner chooses the tattoo the loser has to get."
"Deal." Carli says and shocks the whole team. We shake on it then get into the ocean.
"HOW IS IT?" Pinoe yells from shore.
We've been in here for ten minutes.
"FINE." I yell.
"FUCKING COLD." Carli yells. "Dammit" She says then gets out of the water and is immediately wrapped up in warm blankets and half of the team huddle around her.
I chuckle seeing this then get out since I don't have to be in anymore. The other half of the team come over and huddle around me to get me warm.
"How are you not even shivering?" Christen asks.
"I'm use to it." I say.
We then make our way back to the hotel and once in the room, which thankfully housekeeping cleaned since it did smell like sex, I ask Lindsey to go get something from the market next door while I take a shower. After I take the hottest fucking shower of all time I dry off and change into warm clothes just as Lindsey returns from the market. Before we go down for team dinner she hands me what I asked her to get then we go to dinner in the conference room.
Once we get there I notice everyone huddled around Carli for some reason.
"What's going on?" I ask.
"Just deciding where she should get her tattoo." Ash says with an evil smirk.
"I actually have your design ready if you want to see it."
"O-o-okay." Carli says.

"Here." I say and hand it to her.
"Wait..." Carli says after she inspects the paper. "This is a fake tattoo." She says and a small smile appears on her face.
"Yep. All you have to do is wear that until it comes off and the bet will be done."
"What? You're not making her get a real one?" Pinoe asks.
"I'm not letting her first tattoo be something that doesn't mean anything to her."
"Was that always your idea?" Ali asks.
"No. I was going to make Carli get an Icelandic word that represented how I view her, but I then remembered she didn't have a tattoo so I thought of this."
"Out of curiosity...what word would you have chosen?" Carli asks.
"Duglegur" I say.
"And what does that mean?"
"Someone who is hardworking, yet also intelligent and determined."
"Well damn." Ash says.
"Huh I like that...I'll think about doing that." Carli says.
"Cairo?" Ali asks.
"Yes?"
"Say if I was to get an Icelandic word tattooed on me what word would you choose for me?"
"Styrkur"
"What does that mean?"
"Strength."
"Why strength?"
"You've had to have strength to overcome every hurdle and you've overcame everything and look where you are now."
"What word would you give me?" Christen asks.
"Verndari" I say.
"And that means?"
"Protector. You protect me like we are the last two people on earth. It doesn't matter who or what it is. If it isn't up to your standards for me then it is as good as dead."
"Ooh what about me?" Kling asks.
"Ljós" I say.
"What does that mean."
"Light."
"Why that?"
"Because when I'm having a crap day you always bring light to my life and make me forget about my problems." I say and I notice Kling has glassy eyes and then she hugs me.
"Could you give a word for all of us?" Ash asks and I nod. I'm then asked by everyone on the team what word I would give them.
"Now for the big one." Kelley says. "What word would you give Lindsey?"
"Litur" I say
"And what does that word mean?" Kling asks.
"Color." I say and Lindsey's eyes widen.
"Why did Lindsey just react that way?" Emily asks.
"Because she knows why I chose it."
"And why did you chose that word?"
"She knows."

No Absolution, An Antagonist LitRPG
Colin is bored out of his skull and has been getting more and more restless of late, and his wife, McKenna, has noticed. To help, she decided to get him one of the most sought after devices on the planet, A headset for the Ineffable Gaming System and its revolutionary game Rosengard Worldwide. The most advanced virtual reality video game and the only one with a near-perfect total immersion system, McKenna hoped that the activity in the game could help him overcome his boredom for the foreseeable future. On his first day in the game, he's betrayed for loot, killed, and even made to suffer. Unknown to these players, Colin (DevilWalker in-game) was an Assassin for hire that takes loyalty and betrayal seriously. It was never just about business, and this was not just another aspect of the game for him. This game was a gift from his wife, and he wasn't just going to stop. Now these players and anyone who harbors them are on his list. There will be no compromise, no remorse, and No Absolution to any who betrays Colin Drummond, The DevilWalker. * * * * * * * * * * This story is a LitRPG Action/Adventure story that will feature levels, skills, abilities, monsters, douchebag players, exciting and cool equipment with so much more. I have so much planned for this that it should be fun and entertaining for readers who enjoy the LitRPG genre as much as I do. Please join me as I recount the tale of a man who becomes a legend — both in-game and out of it. I plan to attempt a weekly update schedule. Upload Sunday evening(for me). Warning! This story will involve some amount of cussing to help add some realism and some insinuated sex that will fade to black the moment the fun begins. I am hoping to mostly keep this Rated PG-13 with maybe a few Chapters going rated-R due to language.

Mistwalker Xyn and the Cult of Eldritch Evil
[Participant in the 2020 Royal Road Writathon Challenge] Having just graduated to adulthood, Xyn is salty about how his lackluster Awakening has resulted in his current derided status within his clan and tribe, particularly when compared to the successes of his litter-siblings. The revelation of the truth about his heritage sets in motion events leading to him traveling to human lands on a secret mission for his tribe. Cringeworthy moments and awkwardness will ensue as young Xyn (an anthropomorphic tiger-kin), raised in the sheltered life of a martial artist, navigates human society with a trusty sidekick or two picked up along the way and might just save his corner of the world while he's at it. Gore will be minimally present as needed to tell a fantasy martial arts tale. There won't be any sexual content, but mild/vague suggestive themes may occur occasionally due to the nature of Xyn's mission and his insecurities. Story should be teen appropriate. Thanks for reading! [Background for the cover art is courtesy GG-graphics via Pixabay.]
