《Open Wings (DreamXDNotFound)》Ch 3 - Powerless
Advertisement
George had red puffy eyes from crying. He heard a knock and kept his wings covering his body as his friend flew inside
"Oh no! George!" he said as he noticed the blue feathers making a protective barrier around the angel
"George," he called softly as the wings began to close. It revealed the angel curled up as Quackity hugged him and shushed him softly
"I know you'll fly. I promise," he said as George nodded slowly. He stood up and got dressed as he walked to school
"Today is the test. Anyone wants to go first?" Phil asked as everyone backed away. "Bunch of pussies!" a teen laughed as Phil smiled, "Sapnap! Why don't you go first, then?"
The boy growled as he flexed his fire orange wings. His wings flapped as he flew upwards. He spiraled in the air, dove down like a jet, and glided smoothly
He even managed to break his dive as he flapped forward and landed gracefully. "100, but I'll give you 94 for your use of language," Phil said as Sapnap just shrugged
"Next?" Phil asked as the students started going one by one. Some failed to break their dive, some landed clumsily, and some got dizzy from the spiraling
"I'll go!" Quackity said as some angels snickered. His wings were in bright yellow gold, but it was a bit smaller than the angels' wings
He managed to fly perfectly, but stumbled on his land. "89," Phil graded as he looked at George and smiled, "You're next."
He nervously walked towards the edge of the platform and looked down. His wings shivered from fear as his body started shaking slightly
The students laughed as George started hyperventilating. He heard the laughter grow louder as he covered his ears and his wings opened

Everyone gasped as George just fell onto the cloud floor and his wings enclosed around him as he was breathing quicker
"Enough!" Phil ordered as students calmed down. He walked up to the brunette as he touched the blue wing, flinching after the touch
"Next time," Phil whispered as George opened his wings slightly and nodded. They all made their way towards an arena
"This is for me to see how controlled your powers are. Sapnap, go first," Phil said as he heard the student groan and fly up to the arena
"For this test, you will use your powers and knock down my hat. If you manage to touch it or knock it down, you win. I'm only grading the way it's controlled, not your movements unless they do surprise me."
He felt heat coming closer as he dodged the wave of fire. He looked at Sapnap as the angel dashed and created a dome of fire
Phil watched in amazement as the fire angel dove and grabbed the green and white hat. He bowed as he cleared the fire and Phil grabbed his hat
"Nice, 100," Phil said as others did the test. When it was George's turn, it happened again. He has powers, but like said, only when nervous, nothing happens
Sapnap chuckled as the brunette couldn't take it anymore. His teacher said next time, but he was too upset to even agree
After school, Quackity and George walked as the brunette felt a push and fell forward. "The fuck is wrong with you?!" Quackity asked as Sapnap and his friends were laughing
: Those who hang out with cripples deserve a lesson
: Fuck off! Who cares?!
: Us! You moron!
: Why can't you pick on someone the same level as you?! Oh wait! THERE IS NONE, YOU FUCK!!

: Teach him a lesson!
His friends grabbed Quackity as he trashed around and flapped his wings. He flew out of their grasp and they followed
George ran home as he barely dodged a fire arrow. "Why are you leaving? I haven't even started with you!" Sapnap said as he threw fire at the angel
He dodged as he whimpered and ran away. Sapnap flew as he was faster than George. He landed in front of the cripple and smiled, "Boo."
George whimpered as he ran in another direction. He noticed the ledge of the entire city as he was close to it
Sapnap landed and kept his wings open. Fire was on his wings as they looked like flames instead of feathers
He smiled evilly as George backed away from the bully. "Please! Why me?!" he asked as he felt he ran out of cloud
His foot nearly made the step as he was at the edge of the cliff. Sapnap laughed as he looked at the angel with hatred, "You don't belong here anymore!"
He flapped his fire wings, burning George a bit and his blue wings as he fell back. He screamed in terror as he noticed he was off the edge, falling down onto Earth
"YOU DON'T BELONG HERE, CRIPPLE!" Sapnap yelled as he flew away while George felt himself falling quicker

THE ENCOUNTER
One day in 2022, a mysterious Alien Entity arrives in Melbourne, Australia. What is their purpose of coming here? How will our world react to their arrival? The story follows the footsteps of Jack Geralt – a Royal Australian Regiment veteran who, along with his friends, is recalled into active duty in response to this event. P.S #1: Because this is my first time I write and post my novel here, I will wait for your reviews before posting more chapters. Whether you like it or not, I still hope you enjoy reading my novel. P.S #2: I am sure you noticed that the Cover Art is not mine. I simply chose from my collection of favorite Concept Arts. If whoever designed this art sees this, I thank you very much. Since I am doing everything myself and have to alternate between my work and writing, this is the best I could do. P.S#3: If there are any inconsistencies with what you know (for example, location’s names, recent world events and properties), please remember: This Story takes place in a fictional and alternate reality.
8 103Dip$h!+s in Space
An eccentric comedy novel (that thinks it's a TV show) about space, and the Dipsh!+s that end up stranded in it. This hyper-self-aware comedy of stupid proportions, centers around Captain William T Lawg (no relation) and his adventures as a guy who managed to afford a refitted soft-top ice-cream truck, in space. Explore the universe with his trusty crew of valiant randos. Marley, the tech-bro, stoner spacebunny, who just wants to get away from his home world and the bullies it harbors. Duffy, the plump and sassy female mechanic, who has had every job in existence totaling far more years than possible. Roy, the frigging fabulous, flamboyant android, and former spy…or possibly current spy. (dun dun, daaaa!) And lastly, but certainly leastly, that other chick the captain keeps trying to bang. Ride with the crew of the notorious Tast-E-Chill, to a world of wonder that a lot of other space travelers have already been before, but probably not Lawg, so it's still exciting. This satirical joke on itself and every sci-fi trope ever to exist, will be sure to either thrill you or disappoint you, because COMEDY…IS…SUBJECTIVE! With a crew of 3-10 and an IQ of also probably 3-10, The captain putters along to uncharted lands, where history, loot, drama, innuendos of the sexual verity, and various Technicolor hoes shall surely be waiting, usually with some form of trap. Each season brings new and interesting crewmen, like: Menace: the adorable genderless frog-child-thing with the heart of gold and the dialogue vocabulary of a slightly trained parrot. Greg: the 8 foot tall, ancient, thermonuclear, semi-retired alien overlord who just wants to prove he still has a purpose…and also to rule the galaxy. Izzy: a 3rd generation, age-reversed reboot, accidental clone of her own mother/sister/older self, who happens to be Greg's daughter-in-law…and much, much more. Prepare yourself for shallow adventure, moderately-to high offensive dialogue, and overwhelmingly childish scenarios. Tag along as the crew battles, fierce enemies, lack of food and survival tape, and occasionally their own incompetence. Teen Romance, current politics, subtlety, dignity, this sucker has none of those, and it darn well knows it. Raise the sails and grab the rails as a bunch of dipsh!+s find themselves...IN SPACE. (Roll dramatic tapering credits, to royalty free trumpet music)

8 160Luster
Growing up with her recently deceased mother’s addiction and her own struggles with gender identity, June Fujiwara was not a nice person. Gaining powers from nearly being murdered didn’t change that, and neither did becoming a mercenary to fund her transition. It took horrific manipulation, the resulting trauma, and the family that helped her through it all. Luster is a derivative work based on Worm by Wildbow (John C. McCrae) that begins prior to Worm and although it doesn't show straight away, the story is very AU.

8 219Immutable
The world went to hell in a handbasket. Overnight, something called the Allworld downloaded itself into the universe and everything but the kitchen sink appeared to end the planet. Governments fell and chaos reigned. People were left to fend for themselves. Of course, that's not, like, a bad thing. Pollution is at an all time low which means no more global warming. And all that corrupt bureaucracy is gone now too. Which means all those evil people refusing to do something about our dying planet are gone. Plus, people got superpowers. Which is, you know, pretty sweet. Of course, they can't be normal superpowers, everything but the kitchen sink was thrown in after all. Caleb is immutable, unable to physically change in a world completely changed; Alex was granted a system that talks to her in cat puns, but also gives her power over all cats; Nathan met a god of impulse, who gave him powers because he felt like it; and June is given a power to make things lazy, something opposite to her personality. The four of them meet by chance while hunting monsters. They met by chance but must learn to work together when an empire from space lands on Earth with the intent to subjugate the surviving humans.
