A Jogger and His Routine

Can we finally start now? I guess after this long, we finally can. It took us awhile but here we are and now, you want to know my story. Where to begin? Now, that's a good question. Hmmm...I guess the beginning is that obvious. But not too far from the beginning. Let's see; where to start? How about...oh, I got it. Okay, here we go...Picture this: It was a quiet autumn day when I went out for a regular jog. The roads I took were off by woodlands and people's backyards found in quite some distances. The trees were all naked while the leaves w...

Yukina & The Hidden Passage

"What on Earth is this place?" I asked my myself as I stumbled into a hidden room found at the UMass Boston's library . I have been in this library countless of times that it's practically a second home for me. After all this time, I never realized there was such a place. I thought I explored every the library had to offer. Apparently I was mistaken.The next thing I did was bring out my phone and use the flashlight to get a good lock on what I'm looking at. It was a dark and gloomy tunnel with cobwebs galore. Off to a great start. I hate spi...

Money Talks, So Does Anime

"So, you must be the new guy, eh?" asked someone standing right next to me without paying any attention. I was too absorbed with the One Piece manga I brought the other day. I'm at the Marineford Arc and it's incredibly insane.   Anyways, I look up to the voice who asked me aforementioned question. The voice belonged to a middle aged man who wore a green welding jacket and some black jeans. He was a French Canadian fellow with a couple of sideburns and a well kept hair. Once I saw him there, I answered while lending out my han...

The Undead Screams

WRITER'S NOTE: This is a retrospective of Pepvin Mace trying to raise his loved ones from the dead through his eyes. This short story (a never-before-read chapter) will be added to one of my future books; one of them being the fifth book to The Rissindell Stories: "Sage the Princess Ranger". Please enjoy the reading."Hopefully this works..." I said to myself as I entered into the walls stealthly without being detectived or caught from any of the Northern Kingdom of Rissindell guards. It helps when you have magic spells, such as transportatio...

Portal Gnome in Seattle

"Stupid Marget," I cursed while I was underneath the bridge taking shelter from the current thunderstorm."Now I have to wait this out all thanks to her and her compatriots," I continue cursing while holding my broken astronaut helmet. "If only, I can prove them wrong!"MOMENTS EARLIER:As I turned around the corner, I can see the Space Needle from where I'm heading home. Behind it was dark clouds; it was about to storm today. However it was always comforting and inspiring to see that landmark every time I come home from school. I have been up ...

A Squire, His Princess & The Dark Wizard

WRITER NOTE: This is a retrospective of my main character Terance Tavf through his eyes in Chapter 68 of The Blacksmith's Nephew. A major spoiler ahead so proceed with caution; unless you have read the book, then enjoy. I went into that dark room as fast as I could. 'The Dark Wizard will pay,' I said this to myself. I brought myself down the small flight of stairs and stood at the near center of the room. In the circular dark room, I could see a staff holding altar on my right slightly, another altar holding a clear orb looking l...

Janet & Her Nightly Salute

"Sorry dad. I'm sorry I wasn't strong enough back then and even more right now, dad," I cried out as I have been kneeling in front of his grave for so long that I forgotten what time was it.It was a clear night with a full moon up in the sky as it shines the lonesome landscape of the cemetery I was currently in. Not a single other soul was there. It was just me, my father's grave and other deceased soldiers.I know I shouldn't be out alone considering I'm a woman and all but I really needed to see dad again, even if it was nighttime. Plus I h...

From One Thing After Another

"You damn Water Bandits! You all better let go of my horsagon this instant! Or I'll shoot!" I shouted to the thieves as I drew our my gun and got out of the abandoned wagon slowly. Not only do I hate corrupted sheriffs like Dan, but I equally despise those good-for-nothing Water Bandit.There was three of them at this time. One stopped pulling the reins of Scaleshoe as soon as he saw while the two drew out their guns. They usually come in packs like wolves. I was surprised to see just this small of amount. Normally there are at least half a d...

A Brawl Over Some Spilled Water

"'See what happens when you use your anger, it gets into trouble,"' my Master would say if he was here right now. I thought of this as I chokehold one of the orc's friends as chaos unfolds arounds us. By chaos, I mean the brawl that just started a few moments ago. This wasn't supposed to be like this.Literally everyone in this salon were fighting upon another, except for a few others who couldn't defend themselves. I have had one opponent within my grasp as I continue to try to put him to sleep. Thankfully, the other orcs fought off with eit...

G.J.: Bro

For the first seven years of my life, I have been the one and only child. When I told that I was going a big brother in the spring of 2000, of course I was naturally excited when I first got the news.My brother arrived at the last day of the year 2000, everyone was so happy that he came out all healthy and well. The same could be said for me. I was finally a big brother to a little guy. However, I was quite jealous with all the attention my little brother was getting after a good month or so.Like, it's funny to think back that I once thought...

A Few Bloody Ankles

'The next town is gonna be up ahead within a mile or so,' I said this to myself as I looked at the map I was given. I have been in this bamboo forest for a few hours now and I was getting rather restless. With my katana by my hip and wooden sandals among my sore feet, I have been walking this blasted bamboo forest for far too long. Sure, it was nice and peaceful for a good hour but a good hour or so, I was already looking forward to the next town.    Master is already waiting there for me to see if I pass the test or not....

People were coming in and out of the shelter, getting their desire pets or dropping them off for a visit or whatnot. Raymond and I are here for only one animal and that animal in particular was a cat.
