Chapter 8
Even though the snake is getting devastated, it does not flee. Ten arrows in, I can tell the snake monster is getting worn down. I am shooting stronger arrows, and I myself am stronger than before. Before I know it, I've already shot twenty arrows at the snake monster, all of the hitting. I feel like such a cheat, hiding in his tree, but that's the snake's fault, not mine.
After two hours and all of my arrows, the snake monster is dead. Not only that, I got something special from the encounter.
>**Level-up!**
So, that's cool. I guess I'll use my stat points. I could do another five into strength and get stronger, but dexterity is staring at me like that. I could get.. limber? Flexible? Eh, I'll just go with strength again.

With some pretty dope new strength stats, I go inspect the giant snake. I try to add the snake to my inventory, but it feels a lot harder than other things to add. Its name is a Black Mountain Snake. Neat. There are some really big teeth inside the mouth, but I leave them there without touching them. I'm sure they're poisonus or something.
Day number twelve, and I already killed the huge snake monster. I think I'll investigate more into that cave later. Or not, I still don't have fire. Maybe the sounds of fighting scared off the hares, but my traps didn't catch anything. Without much to do until the next shop day, I practice with my bow. I have the Archery skill, so I don't need to practice, but I think I will get better somehow if I do practice. I wasn't very good at trapping when I first started, but now I'm pretty good at it.

After a whole day of practicing shooting with the bow and collecting some more berries, not leaving the area of my currently explored minimap, I return to the tree. As I wait high in the air, I think about the cave. As I eat berries in the tree, I wonder why I haven't needed to go number two.
In the deep dark night, the familiar sound of snow crushing can be heard. Like, shit! I thought I killed the snake, so there must be more of those monsters. I look around, and I don't like what I see. At least four more of the black mountain snakes are slithering through the trees. I only have 84 remaining arrows, which is enough to kill one or two of the snakes, but I can't kill them all.
Instead of trying to kill the snakes, I wait until morning. Day thirteen, one more day until shop opens. In an effort to raise money, I explore some more. If I can find something to kill with my bow, that would be great. To the west, like aways, lays the mountain and the cave, so this time I travel south.
As I travel, I come across a depression in the snow. I take my shovel from my inventory and start to dig. There might be something cool underneith, but I was left disapointed. It was just a small stream, somehow unfrozen. I cover it back up with snow so hopefully it won't freeze and I continue on my way.
An few hours in, I spot my first sign of life. A big bear! The thing is massive, and could probably kill me if I don't kill it quickly. I take out my bow and ready an arrow. I aim for a few seconds, and then I release. VROOM! The arrow flies, and sticks right into the bear! I get another arrow out of my inventory and VROOM, hit it again. Fuck, this bear is durrable, and it doesn't take much damage from the two arrows. The bear charges at me, but I take another arrow and shoot it in the face.

Dead bear is dead, and I put it in my inventory. I could probably make a baller cloak if I had a tanning skill, so I might get that next shop day. After killing the bear, I return to the tree. I can probably sell it for some nice money, so that's nice. If I can't I will keep it an make a cloak.
Night of the thirteenth day, I wait in my tree. I just need to wait until the shop opens up, and then I can go to town on those Black Mountain Snakes. Before going to sleep, I check my inventory and stats.

Blood Blue
Mayevil is a renowned assassin who is known to complete any mission without fault. A hybrid that is ostracized by each of her respective halves. To her peers, she is an enigma as distant as she is powerful, a person they cannot hope to understand or relate to. Yet, while this is how they see her, the reality is that she is simply confused. Without a greater sense of purpose, her day-to-day life repeats itself over and over again. In the hope that she will eventually find joy or meaning, she continues, without so much as understanding why, as much as why not. Encountering noble vampires, powerful martial artists, and haughty mages all the while, her journey will prove to be a difficult one. This story is inspired by the works of Kinoku Nasu, and various martial arts-oriented stories such as Kengan Ashura and The Raid. Expect a mix of magic, comedy and fight scenes, with a sprawling fantastical world. As a side note, while the story starts off relatively tame, there may be some less than wholesome things that happen later on, so do be warned! Hello!

The White Room
A group of gamers are hired as guinea pigs to test a new VR system. None of them know what exactly to expect. Is the new system bing tested, or is it them? Are they just there for games, or is there a greater game being played? My first attempt at writing LitRPG. I I'm learning as I go and therefore will probably stumble over numerous cliches of the genre and writing in general. Definitely a work in progress.
