《The Dark Star Emperors》Chapter 121: Mosaic Hospital
Advertisement
The girl laid on a hospital bed with her eyes wide open. She was emotionless and barely breathing. They clothed her and ran some tests. They did x-rays and found many apparatuses inside of her body that needed to be removed. The doctors weren't even sure how she was alive. However, she didn't feel any pain from the things inside of her. They prepared for emergency surgery.
They put her under, and then she slept peacefully.
As she slept, her mind began to rummage through many things. They were all so disconnected from each other. So much random and unnecessary information, she thought. She knew of many names, but not her own. Then, a voice came to her that pushed everything else away. She couldn't quite see it, but it looked like a silhouette of a teenage girl.
The girl said only one word, "Annie."
And she repeated those words, "Annie."
While she was under, the doctors prepared to open her up. But as soon as the first scalpel cut into her, she felt an intense and burning sensation.
Then, without any warning, large, black, viscous tentacles shout out of the girl's left arm. It ripped through the cuts and stitches.
The doctors screamed, but there was nobody to help them. Each tentacle moved like it had a mind of it's own, but with a focus. To protect the girl.
They strangled and threw the surgeons and nurses around. They screamed and they screamed, but the tentacles didn't hear nor did the girl. They ripped and tore without any mercy.
When one doctor tried to stab the tentacle with a scalpel, others came towards him and drowned him in his own saliva.
When it was done and no surgeons were left alive, the tendrils retracted back inside of the girl's arm.

There was a brief silence. Only the creaking and flickering of the lights could be heard. The smell of the sanitized room overcame the scent of death for a while. Then, the girl awoke slowly.
She had a headache and looked around the room. She didn't feel afraid or worried from the dead bodies. Instead, she felt confusion as her head kept spinning. She walked around the dead and towards the exit.
The cut on her arm stung, but quickly regenerated itself. However, the sensation was unpleasant. She didn't want to feel that, again.
She tried to leave the hospital, but then guards appeared. They were unaware of what had transpired, but they were suspicious of the girl wandering around late at night. As they called out to her to stop, the girl suddenly became frightened. She raised her arms up instinctively to surrender, but as she did so, tendrils came out of her left arm. They grabbed the guards and threw them around. One of them tried to fire, but missed. The noise of it rang in her ears. And the noise attracted more guards to come. The girl had no idea what was happening. But she felt like she had to get away. She saw a window and jumped out of it without any fear. Glass shards pierced into her skin. The pain of it was unbearable. But she was so up high. Yet, she didn't fear these heights. She felt like she was used to flying high.
Then, before she landed, the tendrils surrounded her in a ball. She bounced as she hit the ground. The tendrils went back into her arm and she landed safely. The glass shards were pushed out of her body by themselves and the wounds healed.
It was dark, but there were plenty of street lights.
She ran away fearing them, however, she didn't know why. She hid in one of the dark alleyways. Police cars went towards the hospital, but she was long gone.

Tower of Babel: Speedrunner
Launch day. That was what they called it. The day when over four million people vanished in an instant from the island of Manhattan. The day earthquakes ravaged the east coast. The day a one hundred and one kilometer tall tower rose from the wreckage of the now empty city. The day every screen, newspaper, and smart phone displayed a single message from an unknown source: The Great Emperor has issued his challenge. From the ruins of the Old World rise the Tower. Its doors will soon open, and the great game will begin. A hundred floors and a hundred challenges await the worthy. And to the victor? A Wish of Unlimited Power. Cayden Caros yearned to play that game. His only problem? The Terms and Conditions. A strict set of rules that, among other things, prevented anyone under the age of sixteen from entering the tower. Forced to wait for over two years, Cayden did the only thing he could do to pass the time. He researched, he practiced and he prepared. It would take a lot to catch up to players with such an enormous head start. Lucky for him, he was a special type of gamer. A SpeedRunner So.... It has been a hot minute. I don't like talking about my personal life, but suffice to say I had some fairly bad times for the last couple of years and have only just recently pulled myself back to good health, physically and mentally. I have a very supportive partner, and am put together enough that I want to get back to doing what I love. Writing nerd fiction that I am too embarassed to try to explain when people inevitably ask what my books are about. Still beats when I used to write erotica. Story updates for book 3 should be on a daily schedule, baring unforseen circumstances. The majority of chapters from books one and two have been pulled down to keep with amazon's KU rules. Book one is found here. Book two is found here. If you like the story, please comment or favorite. Each comment goes a long way towards pushing visibility for the story, which means more people get to see it and I feel slightly more validated as a writer. I have a discord now where you can ask me things and I can be like 'no. no. I'm not answering that. no."

Storm
The Storm started six months ago, and no one knows where it came from. All they know is it hasn't stopped for a single day, and you better follow the one rule: Don't go out in the rain. Hiding in the broken building of her old high-school, seventeen-year-old Marylou is one of the few to have survived this far. She doesn't believe in the Ghosts -- shapeless creatures said to roam under the rain outside -- but, to be fair, she doesn't really believe in anything except booze and the unconditioned love of her ball python snake, Evil Noodle. Chance brings Marylou together with Amy, a mysterious girl with an even more mysterious past, and Dean and Ray, two young men running what they call 'the last pizza place in California'. As the Storm rages on stronger by the day, the foursome will have to make a choice: keep hiding under roof after roof, waiting for starvation, or set out to the road and face whatever hides out there, under the Storm.
