What The Luck!? Chapter 106

"So now that you understand, who is starting first?" Dia looked at the two with a much happier expression since she was about t have two fresh challengers. Having Laura admits to going slower too also attributed to the improved mood and attitude.
"Yout got this Jackson." Asher immediately volunteered Jackson for the position since he wanted to see the best way to go over the rope ladder. However, Jackson looked at him like he was crazy.
"Sounds like you are going first." Jackson was already with a retort, he had half expected this. Having someone else to follow after was a valuable chance to gather information. Even seeing one obstacle failure could change their strategy.
"Why does this always happen. Just do rock paper scissors or something." Dia had seen this between friends uncountable times. They would always try and push the other to go on first so they could watch. Or the one that was more afraid of an obstacle would push their friend to go first to prove it was too scary or the opposite, not as bad as it looked.
Lara held the two boys' fists to not let either one go first. "Ready? Rock,paper scissors...Shoot!" The two threw out their choices.
"AAhh come on, my luck failed me." Asher looked down at Jacksons' closed fist for rock and his two fingers for scissors. He had taken a crushing defeat.
"Great, not you get to go first. Try not to fall in the mud, I won't be going in to help you out." Dia shook her head to make the point that she would not be going in to any mud at all, so if Asher got himself stuck he would have to wait for someone else to fall and help him or just exist there forever.

'Well that is encouraging.' Asher just gave her an annoyed look as he approached the start of the top ladder. He needed to use this bridge to get all the way across. He was not worried about the crossing, more the fact that he was about to make his arms more sore than they needed to be before a climbing wall.
He tentatively grasped the first wooden rung and saw that even the lightest touch made it swing wildly. "How did you do this Laura?" Asher said this out loud not really expecting a reply because it was more of a question to himself.
"I ran across it. If you move fast enough it doesn't have time to twist. It's the simplest way to get across fast." Her voice was condescending, she was acting like she had just answered the world's easiest question.
'Ran across it? Wouldn't she fall no matter what she did? I might as well throw caution to the wind.' Asher was going to just climb across, but when Laura actually responded to his question he felt that if she could do it maybe it was really the best method.
Dia saw Asher start to back up for a running start. "Are you kidding me? Is this kid really about to try and run across the rope ladder as you did?"
"He is, he is. I told him it's the best way. He might not be fast like me but I think he will do it. If not he will fall in the mud, that's good too." Laura so no loss in this at all and was happily going along with the situation.
Dia just held her face in her hands waiting to hear the sound of someone crashing in to the mud.

Jackson was just looking at everyone in disbelief. Asher was really about to run head on in to the rope ladder trying to run across the wooden rungs. "Asher this isn't an anime! Just do it the easy way."
Jackson's warning reached Asher's ears but as Asher had readied himself he found himself more and more excited. "This will be fun!" Asher shouted back then burst in to a run. Jackson covered his own eyes afraid of the result. However, the sound of a body hitting mud was not heard. There wasn't even the sound of Asher sliding to a stop and giving up.
The three watched in awe as Asher's feet hit the wooden rungs dead center without jostling the entire ladder at all. Asher was letting his body take full control. He had a knack for balancing when off balance thanks to his lucky super power. He had gambled that it would work out if he actually tried to run across and so far he was succeeding.
Asher looked like he was about to fall over many times while running across the rope ladder. By the time he reached the halfway mark, he had unbalanced the ladder and it was moving side to side. Amazingly Asher happened to step in the perfect way to counteract each of the swaying motions so he was always taking a solid stride.
"This kid…" Dia didn't have the words for what she was seeing. He obviously didn't have the speed but somehow he was balancing perfectly. Dia had her first obstacle trounced on twice in one day. When she glanced over at Jackson she was afraid that twice would become three times in just a few moments.
"This is awesome, I knew he could make this worth it. He can do it the same as me but slower. I will do it that way my next try." Laura sounded proud and excited. Jackson was still just dumbstruck by the blatant disregard for safety,
"I thought he was smarter than this, but he actually is running across. You two are crazy." Jackson's review was not unfounded.
"So you are the normal one? I know the campers we get for early admission are usually a bit out there, but these two are their own breed." Dia was breathing a sigh of relief that one of the campers had a sound mind.
"You should hear the things they come up with. If it wasn't for the fact that Asher could speak like a normal person I would think he is an alien right now."
"Wait, are you calling me an alien?" Laura responded to Jackson's words with anger. She was read to beat him up if he continued the insult.

Monstrous Path
This story is both dark and lighthearted, it will have a lot of deaths and gore scenes but not just for the sake of being edgy or something like that. Every being comes from someone’s life — a womb, an egg, the world, a God, and from itself. Then what about me? I came from a container, so what does that make me? Am I still a being? “I do not know — I want to understand — why?” This was my driving force to live when I opened my eyes, I had no need for food, I only needed to satiate my curiosity. But as I learned early on, life was not as simple as it seemed. Note: The Characters in this world would always have a reason for living, and the world moves not just because of the MC. This would also have a lot of tearjerking scenes (or so I would hope) Culture, Race, Government, and Language can and will be different and though some Races like Elves and Dwarves are present, please do not think that they are the same as every other.
