Wait, how did the cat know to push the button? Meh, doesn’t matter, I suppose.
Anyways, every trace of the cat is gone. No cat hairs anywhere in the room.
Instead, the walls are covered in masks!
![]()
That’s… I can’t decide if it’s cool or creepy. It’s kinda both.
I mean, the detail and workmanship on each and every one of them is fascinating, truly the work of artists.
On the other hand, being stared at by eyeless faces from all sides is… unsettling.
You go over to one, a particularly cool one, and pull it off the wall. You put it over your face, tying it on with the ribbons.
The eyes start to glow.
Umm, that isn’t supposed to happen.
Are- are you ok?
Hello?
Crap, now all the masks’ eyes are glowing.
Uhhhhhhhh
Dude? H’llo?
Crapcrapcrapcrap
To: IT Desk 3 From: Testing Room Beta Subject: Masks with glowing eyes Heyyyyyy so there are masks in the room now, and the eyes are glowing. I don’t have anything on my sheet saying that the masks should glow. Should they be glowing?? To: Testing Room Beta From: IT Desk 3 Subject: Re: Masks with glowing eyes No, they absolutely should not be glowing. Is the dude ok? To: IT Desk 3 From: Testing Room Beta Subject: Re: Re: Masks with glowing eyes Dunno. Dude hasn’t moved in like a minute… To: Testing Room Beta From: IT Desk 3 Subject: Re: Re: Re: Masks with glowing eyes
o.O
That’s… concerning. Give it five minutes, if the dude hasn’t moved, be worried. This is above my pay grade, so you’ll have to call Chris.
To: IT Desk 3 From: Testing Room Beta Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: Masks with glowing eyes Damn. Ok. Thanks.
Hey…
Hey dude? You ok in there? There’s a constant humming from the masks now. Is your brain being dissolved or something?
Duuuuude? Hiiiiiiii?
Suddenly the glowing stops. You pull the mask off.
Oh thank goodness! Are you ok? You’re ok, right? Right?
Riiiiiiiiight?
Dude? What- what did you see? Wanna tell me? You don’t?
Ok then.
I’ll just be over here, filing an error report. Don’t mind me…
You just go ahead and push the button…
DO YOU PUSH THE BUTTON? Yes No

Cannon Fodder - A LitRPG Story
Not even alien scum can take down a squad of US Marines! When his dad died, Kerry Peters did the one thing he knew would have made his father proud. He signed up for the Marines. After barely making it through basic training and four days after deployment, he wasn’’t confident he’’d survive his first tour. As a bookworm, he wasn’’t considered a real soldier and most definitely not a hero. Fate, however, has had other plans for Fire Team One, and when the squad woke up in camp alone, the fight was no longer against the Vietcong … but against creatures from other worlds. This is a fairly smooth LitRPG story - so will incorporate aspects of RPG and gaming in the writing. The LitRPG side of things is most visible from Chapter 7 onwards.

Evolution System+Customisation System=Stronger System? Maybe not though...
Synopsis- Dying due to what seemed to be an unavoidable drunken punch, Connor Connolly a 24-year-old man from England who is a little different when compared to the "normal public" keeps those differences along with a few additions when his soul transmigrates into a fantasy world of numerous opportunities compared to the mundane life of the earth where boredom was rife. His only asset? His mind and most importantly his imagination which he must maintain with practical knowledge from his previous life! Will his previous life's fascination with gathering what seemed to be random wildlife knowledge assist this hope for survival in the upcoming trials he faces that are beyond his imagination or make his situation worse because his past life knowledge is not always best in the world he has found himself a part of... All he has to go on are the words of the God who he heard from when he arrived in this crazy world and said "blessings" rewarded to him by this God. [Stupid human, I do not have time for your mortal questions, so I will give you the basic rules” of my planet. They are “evolve to improve oneself for yourself” and for you a unique ability that can be likened to your so-called concept of “customization” to further adapt oneself to the environment and for you to use your so-called “advantage of being reborn with your past life experience and knowledge”. Beware though, the strength you gain will balance itself out when compared to the aboriginals for the system I have created over my lifetime is perfection embodied] This is less brief in the actual prologue by the way as it also serves the purpose of giving you an idea of the world that Connor has been thrown into... :P Schedule: 2-3 Chapters a week, however, there could be more chapters released on some occasions.
