Advertisement
John woke up in a new town with no idea how he got there. He looked around and saw that he was in a small room with a bed, a table, and a chair. He got up and walked to the window. He looked outside and saw that he was in the middle of nowhere. There were no buildings or people around.John was confused and scared. He didn't know how he got there or why he was there. He tried to remember what happened before he woke up, but he couldn't. He felt like he was in a dream.He decided to explore the town and find out where he was. He walked out of the room and into the street. The town was small and quiet. There were only a few houses and shops.John walked around for hours but couldn't find anyone. He started to feel like he was the only person in the town. He wondered if he was going crazy.As the sun started to set, John saw a light in the distance. He walked towards it and found a small bar. He walked inside and saw a few people sitting at the bar."Hey," John said to the bartender. "Can I get a drink?"The bartender looked at him and smiled. "Sure thing," he said.John sat down at the bar and ordered a beer. He took a sip and looked around the bar."Where am I?" John asked."You're in Limbo," the bartender said.John didn't know what to say. "Limbo?" he asked."Yeah," the bartender said. "It's a place between heaven and hell."John didn't believe him. "That's not possible," he said.The bartender shrugged. "Believe what you want," he said.John finished his beer and ordered another one."What am I doing here?" John asked."You have unfinished business on Earth," the bartender said."What kind of business?" John asked."That's for you to figure out," the bartender said.John finished his second beer and left the bar. He knew that he had to figure out what his unfinished business was if he ever wanted to leave Limbo.He walked around for hours until he found an apple tree in an abandoned orchard on the outskirts of town. He picked an apple from the tree and ate it.As soon as he took a bite, he felt different. He felt like he had more energy and clarity of thought than ever before.On his way back to town, John met Sarah who was walking her dog. They started talking, and John told her about his situation.Sarah listened intently and offered to help him figure out what his mission was.Together, they spent the next three days trying to figure out what John's mission was. They talked to people in the town and explored every inch of it, but they couldn't find any answers.On the third day, they heard screams coming from outside of town walls. They ran towards it only to find goblins attacking people from nearby villages who had come for trade purposes.John knew that this was his mission - to save this town from goblins who had been attacking them for years now but no one knew how to stop them.He quickly gathered all able-bodied men from nearby villages who had come for trade purposes along with Sarah who had been helping him all along with this mission.They fought bravely against goblins for hours until they finally defeated them all with their combined efforts.After defeating them, John felt relieved that his mission was complete but as soon as they started walking back towards their homes, one of the goblins who had been hiding behind attacked John with his blade.John fell down on ground with blood oozing out of his wound.Sarah tried her best to save him but it was too late.John died there on that spot. My addition: Sarah killed the goblin, and mourned John's death, then she kept John's sword to remember him by and to continue slaying goblins and other creatures, for she was a warrior.

8 2603The Hideous Horde
In a world where powers are more of a curse than a gift, terrible changes occur to normal humans for seemingly random reasons. These changes occur at the genetic level, and they are not your classic presto changeo. These changes are made of blood, pain, and pounds of flesh. The story begins with these transformations, and who knows when it'll end. This is currently becoming something; hopefully, it'll become something great. Keep your hopes up, because there is more to come.
8 141Inertia
A man is summoned to another world by a goddess after completing the nigh impossible final boss of a game. However, this world isn't your typical fantasy world. Though it has magic, it is set far into the future where technology reigns, and magic itself is just a finely-tuned science. How will our hero survive in a galaxy that looks down upon humans? One where his race, which once reigned supreme, is treated like trash along the roadside. Will he, with his diverse crew, be able to save the galaxy while fixing the hostility between the races?
