Kuro: Woah...why is it so dark in here?
Kuro said to himself as he finally made it within the Castelila City Gym...but he can't see anything. A small flame would light in front of his face, as he yelled and jumped back -- only to run into nothing and fall on the floor. He heard someone laughing. Claude: Haha...didn't mean to startle ya' man. Welcome to the Castelila City Gym. I'm your host -- Claude...You uh, you good man? Kuro: Yeah..I'm good, I just got scared a minute ago... Claude: Haha, fear won't get you very far. There's a Lil' something special about this gym I gotta let you know about. First of all, you'll need this. Claude said as he reached behind his back with his free handle, revealing to Kuro the second lit candle he had behind him. Kuro: H-How did you- Claude: Take this kid. Claude handed Kuro the candle, Kuro takes it. Claude: You'll need that if you wanna see. This Gym is sprawling with bug and grass type mons. And you gotta walk across these webs to get up and down and all around this gym...haha. This gym has several art pieces, big ones too. You use the candle to burn them down, and once you do...you either get attacked by some wild pokemon, or you find yourself in the chamber of creation...is what Burgh calls his little shed that he draws and fights in. This makin' sense to you? Kuro: Yeah, I understand. Claude: All right then Champ in the makin', go ahead..haha... Claude laughed..fading away into the darkness until he completely disappeared. Kuro gripped his fist....taking in a deep breath as he wandered throughout the gym. Spacious, yet empty it felt. His little light helped out but he was still extremely lost. He and his Oshawott kept walking and walking. Eventually, he stopped at the sight of something he hadn't seen before. He took a step back and held his candle in the air as his eyes could behold the enormous and breathtaking painting in front of him. He was in awe...did Burgh really make this himself!? He didn't even want to set it on fire! Kuro: Woah...This is amazing! I can't Burgh really made.....hey wait who's there?? He said as he felt something crawling on his back, he jumped to the side as he could STILL Feel something on him, he screamed as he ran around in a circle until whatever was on him went flying off into the darkness that surrounded him. He panted, grabbing his Oshawott as he was ready to take on whatever wanted to battle. The thing that crawled all over Kuro's back showed itself..it was a small Sweaddle with the most sinister grin on its face, as it chuckled. Kuro: Guess I'll have to take you on... Oshawott held its scalchop, and just as he held it in the air about to turn into into a blade-- it was gone from his hand! He looked all around to see a Spinarak holding a Scalchop in its mouth. Then the Pokemon jumped out at Kuro. Kuro fell over, as the candle fell and it set fire to the painting, and the Pokeball rolled towards the flame. Kuro screamed yet again. The painting set ablaze and from behind the painting sprawled a bunch of Spinaraks, Beedrills, and Venomoths came out and attacked him. Kuro: Oshawott, use water gun! Oshawott hopped up and he starting blasting the Spinaraks, and Beedrills. He fired one at the Spinaraks, which caused all six of them to jump into the air -- He fired another beam at the Beedrills, but both of them avoided. Then he hit all three Venomoths with its final beam! But As Oshawott finished firing its beams...he started to get the hiccups. Oshawott: O-Osh....O!..O... Kuro: Hey...are you alright?? Oshawott would be bombarded by Pin missles from the Beedrills, as when it was sent flying -- A stone would come flying out of his mouth! Oshawott would find itself landing in Kuro's arms. Kuro then ran away, as the Pokemon continued to follow him. He would find himself hiding behind this little cocoon. Kuro sighed, as he held Oshawott in his arms. Oshawott hopped on Kuro's head. Kuro would then walk around in the darkness, as he heard the sounds of swarming pokemon looking all over for him. Kuro heard more sounds too...sounds of what sounds like laughter. He followed this sound, walking as fast as he could until he reached this even bigger painting than before -- As the sounds of laughter he heard were as clear as day! On top of that laughter, he heard a muffled sound..like someone had a wrap-around their mouth. Kuro then took in a deep breath, busting through the huge painting as a bright burst of life hit him directly...like a vampire seeing the light of the sun. The entire new cavus he was in was multicolored...everything ranging from red, purple, blue, pink...etc. And the muffled sound he heard....it was no other than Shiro! Shiro was tied up and hanging down the ceiling wrapped up in this web-like material that looks to be of the makings of a Spinarak. In the center of all this madness was burgh, as he sat there gazing down at Kuro. Burgh: Excellent work back there Kuro, not only did you and your friend up there help clear Team Plasma out of the city..but you also stopped them somewhere else! You're a real hero kid. Shiro's eyes lit up as she saw Kuro. She tried swinging over to him but she didn't move at all, she was stuck. Kuro: Burgh....what did you do to Shiro? Burgh: That wasn't me...it was my Ariados. Kuro: Aria...dos? Burgh: Mhhmmm~. Your friend told me that you would be here soon, soo...the deal was that if she loses, she has to be wrapped up in the web until you beat me, and if she wins...she gets her badge. Simple as that. Kuro: Aww Shiro, why did you agree to that?? Burgh: Worry not young hero! If you beat me, you get to rescue her! Kuro: And if I lose...? Burgh paused after hearing the boy's question..laughing a little as he slowly rose to his feet...and the sound of crawling echoed throughout the entire chamber of creation -- this huge spider-like Pokemon (Known as Ariados), came slamming to the ground in front of Burgh. As it let out a cry and gave Kuro a chill. Burgh: Well, you'll end up like your friend over there...Do we have an agreement? Kuro: ...Yes, I accept!

Badass
At the end of everything, Taylor Hebert realized something. She didn't want to be a superhero. No, she wanted to be a badass. And then her prayers were answered. Imbued with the power of mimetic badassery and the ability to channel a different real-life badass every week, she set out in search for all the best things in life - well, according to Conan, at least. Modeling herself after Conan have been a mistake. Join her on her high-octane, pulp-fiction journey for vengeance, adventure, victory and mayhem. This isn't just uncensored. It's anti-censored! =========================== (Worm/Fate/Badass of the Week) Warning: crack-taken-seriously, over-the-top pulp-fiction style violence, overpowered protagonist, banned on two other sites. Hell, even the light-hearted omake jokes in this were considered too subversive to persist. ============================ AN: There’s this really, really excellent website called Badass of the Week. I’ve wasted many an hour browsing through, marveling at all the crazy shit some humans are capable of. Check it out, then come back and read this in a few days when the awesome starts to wear off. It’s worth it (all 576 entries). Back? Good! Anyways, I was looking through it recently while thinking about who I wanted to make expy’s of for my The Flying Dutchman quest ship captains (which now languishes in indefinite hiatus), and I had this idea. What if Taylor, wanting to be a badass, triggered with the power to be a different Badass every week? With a bit of Fate-style ability to draw on the tools associated with the legend (but to a just marginally less ridiculous degree), and a drive and aura to be and do badass? And thus, Badass was born in it’s somewhat cracky glory. Enjoy.

The Blackgloom Bounty
In the dark days before the end of the first millennium, Scotland (or Scotia as some called it) was a leaderless hodgepodge of tribes, clans and warring factions all bent on the same thing--domination of the land. Wizards, sorcerers and magicians still plied their trade, though much of their power had given way to the machinations of men and their war machines. To the south of Scotia lay the realm of the Saxons ruled by Ethelred the Unready and his ruthless minions. To the west, Ireland had just come of age. Everywhere else the constant threat of a lightning swift Viking incursion loomed over the land.Growing up in this lawless world is a displaced Daynin McKinnon, heir to an ancient familial keep on the island of Rhum. He and his grandfather Ean scratch out a living amongst the Saxons, careful never to divulge their clan heritage. That all changes when Kruzurk Makshare chooses Daynin as the ideal prospect to help him bring down a vile sorcerer named The Seed of Cerberus, ferreted away in his impregnable fortress at Blackgloom. Little does Kruzurk know that in so doing, he will launch young Daynin, himself and others on a vast, dangerous quest that no one could have foreseen. *****One Hollywood producer has dubbed this three book fantasy epic from Jon Baxley as, "BRAVEHEART meets THE LORD OF THE RINGS." Real places, people and events flesh out this fast moving, multi-faceted semi-historical series but fear not fantasy readers. There's more than enough of the magical, mystical mayhem you have come to expect from great fantasy. Romance readers, too, will enjoy the 'spice' in these characters--and there are a lot of them--both human and otherwise. And if you're into Viking lore, this series certainly is for you.When someone asks the author about his series, he answers with, “There were far more surprises in this tale than I ever expected and it's not over yet! This volume and the next two contain hundreds of pages filled with rollicking good times, fast moving action and a page turning adventure you will not soon forget."Books In The Scythian Stone Saga:THE BLACKGLOOM BOUNTY Episode 1 - 500 pagesTHE REGENTS OF RHUM Episode 2 - 800 pagesTHE SCIONS OF SCOTIA Episode 3 - 800 pages
