New York Outskirts Terra The Khaganate November 3151 James Sheldon checked the chrono on his wrist. The downpour slicked the cracked pavement, pooling in jagged potholes left by shells months ago. His thin, civilian-issue raincoat clung to him valiantly. The squelch of his sodden boots against...

...A show where the contestants' lives are in your hands. That was the message you received from a trustworthy source, followed by a list of instructions for connecting with the livestream. Could this be true? The Beast Games were "friendly" competitions for money on YouTube, and Squid Game...

A few days ago I was idly thinking to myself 'I wonder what a Ninja Gaiden II Black would have been like' and 'the people are ready for Ninja Gaiden 4.' With the Ragebound announcement I also wondered whether there might be a future for the singular super ninja and human blender Ryu Hayabusa, if...

“Another pillar has fallen, My Liege.” I sat comfortably on my large throne, my eyes gazing across the throne room. “The whole underworld will be yours soon, Nya~” The near-nude catgirl strewn across my lap mewed. “The underworld…?” I muttered, staring at the line of soldiers kneeling in...

He could hear his heartbeat in his chest. He could feel the venom of the Basilisk before him. He did not know how he had survived for so long, or how he had his wand in his left hand. Nor did he know how the Sword seemed to grow lighter as he grew more tired. What he did know was that some force...

Adrian sat cross-legged on the living room rug, his crayons spread across the floor in a messy rainbow. His little hand gripped a red crayon tightly as he focused on his masterpiece: a picture of his mom, dad, and himself standing in front of their apartment. He made sure to draw their apartment...

A Midsummer Nightmare, or, The Plight of Demetrius. Izzy closed her eyes as Helen's fingers sunk into her hair, scratching her scalp as she lay her head in the other woman's lap. Helen had claimed the darkroom for herself before Izzy had even gotten to the safe house the first time, guided...

Snap snap snap. The sound of the camera clicks breaks me from my reverie. Another day, another deluge of demanding interviews for the adoring public. Don't get me wrong, I loved my fans but sometimes…I wanted to just transform and maul a reporter for asking me what color of underwear I was...

"A story of an adventure of Jake Torres, my unwilling victi-, ahem, volunteer to see what kind of ripples in the pond he is going to make" -------------------- The glow from the TV flickered across the room as the credits of Avengers: End Game rolled by. I stretched out on the couch, my mind...

Chapter 1 – Wixx I was hardly conscious. Between reality and dream, my consciousness was wavering, thoughts intermittently gleaming. The sterile hospital air carried the familiar scent of antiseptic and artificial cleanliness – a smell I'd grown too accustomed to over these past months. Then...

You slump back in your chair exhausted. You've been guiding your chosen Soul for a decent while now, and he is just tiring to deal with, not to mention the two distractions… "Heyyyy buddy!" Speaking of… "I have something for you~" "Is it pay?" You're officially unemployed, and you're only...

A car broke free from the looming shadows cast by Stormfiend's dominating spheres of steel and glass and at last entered a sunny road leading to Base Union. But its four passengers didn't bother to admire the flowering fields or distant meadows, too focused on scanning their silver uniforms for...

It would be lying to call the room a typical dungeon room. Sure the walls were that strange grey stone brick that didn't make any sense; and there was a massive treasure chest that no sane person would ever make to one side. But instead of guttering torches sending dark shadows everywhere...

At the center of Creation, the cradle of all universes, a battle was taking place that would determine the fate of reality itself. Both gods and mortals would be affected by the outcome of what would happen here. The ground of this place looked like the eye of a cyclone of white clouds, and the...

Everything starts with Dreams. Dreams you hold in your heart, the Dreams others force upon you, and the Dreams you chase until you die. To lose the ability to Dream is equivalent to death. So I spent my life in a Dream. Stories, games, music, and my own imagination. Until one indiscernible day...

Hey everyone. So, I'm not fully out of my hiatus just yet. Still need to handle a few things on my end, but I'm finally at the point to where I'm comfortable balancing my time writing and time with my GF and her devil child (know that I say that with all the love in the world dear). Currently...

To newer readers, feel free to skip this chapter. It just provides a silly meta reason for character creation as well as the character creation itself. The Quest begins in the next threadmark. A step meets a step, meets another hurried step. First day on the job! There's no need to be nervous...

I always thought I would be satisfied if I acquired powers when I was a child. Anyone knew you had powers since birth. My parents knew it. My neighbors knew it. Even a caveman acknowledged it. There were times when it wasn't the case. One percent of people born in this world won't have powers...

When I came to, I found myself floating in eternal darkness. I don't know how I find myself here. My memories are so blurry that I don't even know what happens before waking up in this emptiness. Am I alive? Dead? Maybe I am on the last vestiges of my consciousness before my brain shuts down...
