Blame Tory Brennan and Hajime Nagumo for this delay in my release lol
Wednesday, the second day of school. My excitement hasn’t died down, not completely. I suppose it’s going to be a nice day, yesterday they told us that today we would be shown the available elective course in the gymnasium after lunch. We’ll have to hand in a paper in which we’ll specify what course we’re going to attend to, there’s a minimum of one course and a maximum of three. I already know what elective courses there are, but actually seeing what they do and stuff it’s better, I believe.
Before having breakfast, just two toast with jam and some juice, I took a quick shower and put on yesterday’s clothes. They’re still clean and we can’t really wash them after each use, unless they’re visibly dirty and stink. It’d be a waste. Mom brought me to school today too, it’s the arrangement my parents agreed on. A week mom then a week dad, for the first two months. Afterwards, I’ll begin taking the bus. I was made to memorize the route and which bus I have to take.
The weather was pretty tame, a chilly wind blew sometimes but as there was no cloud in the sky, the heat from the sun didn’t make it cold. Pretty nice. In the car, while going to school, mom gave me a worried look. It wasn’t anything serious, just that, at times, I like to touch and feel the wonderful blue flowers I see. I know they aren’t real, but being able to see and feel them so clearly, though rarely, makes me forget it.

After a quick stop by my locker, a green, tall metal box with a rather long password, I went to class. I put inside tomorrow’s book that I wouldn’t need today and took out all the others. My family certainly wasn’t low on money, dad was a lawyer and mom was a professional cook with her own personal 4-star restaurant, but the school books weren’t cheap. All ranged from 20$ to 30$. Natalie wanted to give me hers, but they.. didn’t contain the required information.

The Scarlet Knight
Caitlin's life was finally going the way she wanted: Her family's restaurant was taking off, she got accepted to the school of her dreams, and her younger sister was finally in a better place. That all changed when her family's restaurant broke out in flames during a party. Caitlin's life is forever changed. She died, and unlike the ones who came before her, her fate has been predecided by the gods. Now she must battle her way through a series of unfortunate events, stay alive, and confront the gods themselves. The Scarlet Knight is a short story that takes place in the same universe as The Reborn. There are elements of Gamelit inside, but nothing too extensive. I write the Scarlet Knight on my phone, so there are grammatical issues inside. You do not have to read The Reborn to enjoy this story.

Willful Body
A colossal mountain towers above the clouds. Howls and roars reverbate throughout the mountain. On the mountain peak, two men stand silently face each other. One wears a cloak and wields a revolver with mystical runes glowing on its barrel. The other is bare chested and holds a great sword as large as his giant figure. The man with the gun points it at the other man. "Cayden, as one of your friends. Please make this easy for me and turn yourself in." The large man's eyes waver for a second before they quickly recompose themselves. "Come on then. Try to take me," The large man rushes towards the man in the cloak swinging his great sword down as he approaches. The man in the cloak sighs, aims his gun, and fires.

A loose thread
The goddess picked him up. He tried to struggle free, but her grip only tightened. Eventually her thumb caught his head, pulling it backwards. He stared helplessly as she brought her free hand closer, revealing a small vial in her massive hand. She pressed it to his lips, and he felt the contents flow into him. He tried not to drink it, but his body would not listen. Despite his revulsion, his body ignored him by drinking deeply. "Drink and forget. I will give you everything you ever wanted. A loving family. A comfortable home. And then, " Her grip tightened, and forcing the air out his lungs. He coughed up the strange liquid and caused more to spill. “And then, you will pay for your defiance. On your twentieth birthday you will remember.” She pulled the vial away and turned him to look at her. “You will remember, just as everything you love is taken from you, right before your eyes…” Her voice trailed off and his world went dark. .... The above leads right into the story. The first chapter is a bit rough as the MC (a child at the time), hurts himself rather badly. I will try to include similar warnings on chapters as the story goes on, but I want to be up front that I may miss or forget things. Many of the tags are included so I can have flexibility writing the story. I am posting this largely to hold myself accountable to keep writing. Chapters will be short, but I am planning to post weekly. This is the first thing I have written (you've been warned). I am enjoying the story and I hope you will too. Please feel free to let me know what you think of the story as it progresses.
