《My Short Stories》Chapter 21
Advertisement
Hearing a crash I woke up startled. I live alone so I was terrified. I quietly sneaked inside the kitchen. I saw the back door open. I am sure I locked it when going to sleep. I saw the vase I keep in the kitchen at the floor in pieces.
I turned on the lights. I screamed when I felt a hand on my shoulder.
He turned me around and placed a hand on my mouth. I looked at him wide eyed. He shushed me. I nodded. He removed his hand.
"What are you doing here?" I asked to Alex. My neighbour's nephew who recently came to visit him.
"Don't shout. Let me explain." He said. We sat down in the living room.
"My name's not Alex nor am I Mr. Chris's nephew. I am Damon. I am a secret agent and so was Chris." He explained.
"Why should I believe you and why are you here?" I asked.
He passed me his identity card. "I found out something about someone I shouldn't have and now I am a fugitive. Chris was hiding me but somehow they found out about it. They are coming tomorrow to take me. I can't go anywhere as they have eyes everywhere. So I came here." He explained. "Also sorry about the vase. It was an accident." He explained guiltily.
"Come on, it was my favourite." I said jokingly. As if that's important right now. "So you are going to hide here?" I asked. "What makes you think that they won't check the neighbours' houses?" I asked skeptical with his plan.
"Because you won't let them." He said smirking.
"How?" I asked.
"We will act as if no one's home. And as you barely go out there is no record of you in the cameras." He said.
"Fine, I will help you but what will I get out of this?" I asked.
"Whatever you want." He said winking.

Some made it through by using force, some by using their cunning… Everyone has their own story, but they all have one thing in common — there are no good people among them. The world of Karik turned out to be akin to a game. In it, one can level up, grow stronger, even resurrect in case of failure.

Reed escaped his village, in order to flee from his mad father. Take it from there. ... Hello. This is my first novel, so please do be patient if there are any errors or holes in the story. Also, I'm not sure how many chapters this story will have, and it has no planned end. I currently don't have a release schedule. I will be releasing whenever I finish a chapter. The chapters are rather short as well

Ahhh...if only I was more manly I could have taken it myself and not put up with him for all those years. But, alas, I digress. Join me. One. As I travel these lands of Erra to fufill a prophecy laid to me by a fart brain wizard who, by the way, is so untrustworthy and deceitful that I wouldn't trust him to watch my pet rock. Not that I have one mind you. My most important mission is to see these two younglings grow into mighty beasts of manliness to defeat the Great Darkness! There, I must advise, train, and nurture their very heart of hearts to be pure and mighty to stand for the Strangers against these perilous times!

"Go on Lou, just give it a go." ; in other words, Louis' older sister Jade dared him to put on make up and Louis ends up loving it._Larry Stylinson_•I do just wanna day that this book isn't short. When I say that I mean the chapters are long and things don't happen straight away. When writing this book, I wanted to develop the characters before jumping straight in to relationships and drama. I tried to make it as realistic as I could (I was young when I started this book). Just please give it a chance as I'm really proud of this book and really enjoy writing it!!
