What The Luck!? Chapter 120

With Jane's new mask her face could finally be seen to some degree. The fuzzy appearance was from the way the tough clear material was made. It would refract light to a degree changing what was seen through it. This kept Jane's super power at bay while also letting her and others see.
Jane smiled showing off a little more. "I know, it came out amazing. I need to send a thank you card to the manufacturer, I hope they will be able to give it to the person who invented this. They told me it could even stop a basic bullet so I don't need to worry about anything breaking it."
"That's wicked cool. What about you Art? How is your gear?" Art's face dropped, he had a scrunched up face.
"Yeah, it's great. No problems. But I didn't bring it, you know heavy and stuff." Art wouldn't make eye contact with Asher making him feel that there was something wrong.
He glanced at Jane who just shook her head a little. She had tried to meet Art at Asher's house but after waiting for a little while Cara mentioned that Art had left earlier for school. She wanted to talk to him too but he had avoided being alone with her and she knew that she would need Asher's help to figure out what was wrong.
"So these are the two you have been waiting for. I am Garnet the head counselor here. Welcome to the camp. As two of the first five to make it here, you get a special something." Garnet handed them a small ticket.
"Night training pass?" Jane read it out loud curious as to what it could mean.
"You will learn about it when the other campers make it here. Last year it took at most seven hours." Garnet's tone was very lackadaisical when she said this.

Jane wanted to pry and get more information but Garnet had already walked away to get back to other preparations. "Well, since it looks like we aren't going onside yet, why don't you tell us all about the camp?" Jane just smiled and nudged Asher. Art was looking away in a daze, he appeared to be trapped within his own mind.
"Well, the thing is I am not supposed to ruin the specifics but I don't see why I can't run through the general stuff. Most of the things I will tell you will be explained in the introduction though." Asher proceeded to tell them most of what had happened and omitted a few things. He especially omitted the incident with Laura since he was sure Jane would get angry at him for it.
They managed to pass the time chatting and starting to do some foot work Tage. Asher was not surprised to find Garnet watching them. Jane had somehow gotten faster while Art was easy to catch off guard. With his mind elsewhere he was a weak opponent.
"Oh, that is Jackson. He is the gardener I told you about." Asher saw Jackson return from cleaning up and proceeded to drag him to his friends. "This is Jane and Art. They are in my class."
"Hey there, Asher told me that you guys are pretty good in combat and have some interesting powers. Feel free to ask me whatever you need about plants or wildlife in the area." Jackson was happy to finally meet the two people Asher had mentioned a few times. Meeting other class one students would give him a chance to make more friends.
"Ohhhh so these are your friends." Laura was behind them snacking on cheese crackers. She had shown up without any of them noticing.

"And this is Laura, she is forever snacking." Asher sighed at this, he had started to get used to her constant disappearances and reappearances with snacks.
"You say that like I'm fat or something." She gave Asher a soft hit to the shoulder and dodged his response. "Too slooooww."
Jane stepped between them, "I wouldn't hit him like that. He can wipe the floor with you any day." Jane thought she had pulled out the perfect high and mighty card for Laura's defeat.
"Well yeah. He already has. But it's ok, I got revenge." Laura was referring to the mud pit. She sounded like she had done something much worse before things could escalate Asher jumped in.
"You and Jackson, and Dia ganged up on me. It was three against one. There was no way to avoid the mud." This looked to calm Jane down.
"Who is Dia?" She realized that Dia sounded like a girl's name and had become more curious than she needed t to be, Asher felt a shiver run down his spine.
"She's the best. She is in charge of the obstacle course. Asher will introduce you since she said we should bring our friends by." Laura was just excited to talk about her favorite part of the camp, her teasing had ended in a moment.
"Art, there is a really cool part of the obstacle course I think you will like. You and I should head there."
"Hmm, sure bro." Art's response was almost nonexistent. Asher was ready to drag him away to figure out what was wrong but a panting student came up to the crowd of campers that had grown while the group chatted.
"That should be the last of the campers for this year. You all made it to camp Jewel. Welcome. Please listen close, if you want me to repeat the rules you will need to pay a point for every rule." Garnet started off with a basic explanation for points and different activities at the camp. Jackson seemed excited to hear about the classes having more options. He had exhausted the main ones he wanted to take and suddenly had more options.
Jane perked up her head at the explanation of the sparring field. Ashe had expected her to spend a lot of time there trying to get points. However, when Garnet got to the portion about spending points to get bags back the entire crowd of campers started to become agitated.

Wander West, in Shadow
BOOK 1 COMPLETED A young wizard journeys west, through dark forests and dangerous lands, searching for something. Accompanied by a wild witch who has secrets of her own, they come across terrible creatures, hauntings, cursed villages, and memories from their past. Who else will they meet along their journey, and to find what he is looking for, how far will the wizard have to wander west? NOTE: The above synopsis is intentionally written to be as spoiler-free as possible. If you would like a more in-detail synopsis, one that contains minor spoilers, please check out the "Synopsis" chapter at the beginning of this fiction. If you read and enjoy, please leave a rating or review! FORMERLY TITLED: THE GLIMMERLING This story was formerly titled "The Glimmerling", because the first part was a short story of that title; it has since been expanded upon, thus the title change. Chapters 1-8 (30k words) are the first 'arc', if you want to get a feel for the story. To give some context on the setting: Magic is a bit weaker in this story than you might be used to, and we start off following some relatively new magic users. For some perspective, being able to light a campfire with magic is considered relatively advanced for someone who is the age of the main character. Magic can become very powerful - and there are some examples of powerful wizards within this story - but it's not where the main characters are yet. Part of the story is about following them as they learn more about magic. Enemies are also very dangerous, and running, hiding, or trying to talk their way out of a dangerous situation is often a better choice than fighting for the characters. While I have added tags for traumatizing content, sexuality, violence, swearing, etc. I try to avoid super-explicit descriptions of these things. But they are part of the story.
