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!

AI creation is something that has been on the minds of the people for decades. The concept of artificial minds learning just like us. Maybe even better than us. This idea is something people have strived to make more than conceptual. But, they have failed. Until now. This story will focus on the first few years after the first AI being born. We will see, from different perspectives, it growing up, and what adversaries it will face Fair warning: Slow pacing, bad language, way too many commas, and several mentions of France.

The Foretold: Sun Child (Complete)
As a sixteen year old commoner, your future is bleak. Worse, your appearance sets you apart from others. Your only achievement so far, is befriending the second son of the Lord of the Keep. He has been your only friend for eleven years, initially partner in mischief and later your hunting companion and confidant. Now your friendship is being torn asunder, he has turned eighteen and is being sent away to become a Judge Knight Aspirant. What is to become of you? Before your friend leaves, there is murder and conspiracy! Magic left the land hundreds of years ago, all you have is your bow and hunting skills, nevertheless you must fight to survive and save another to have any hope of a future! Note: The graphic isn't mine; it is a re-imagining of a few separate images, any objections by original artists let me know. N.B. If you are looking for Sexual Content every chapter, or every second, third or fourth chapter this isn't the story for you - the Sexual Content is required for a plot device, not a way of life and the later chapters reflect that - please stop dropping Low Ratings when you feel I haven't met your idea of "fan service". This is finished as much as a multi book vision can be finished. At 750,000 words give or take and very little readership I can only blame myself. I have learnt a lot, possibly forgotten a lot as well! I will probably return to the Chapters at some point - a touch up here and a touch up there. The second book though will probably remain in my head for a very long time, so yes "cliffs" although I hope the characters and their motivations are developed enough that you can have a good guess at the content of Book Two and tell me so I can confirm or deny! This isn't a LITRPG where classes are developed, great foes are defeated by a hero of immense power. This is a story based within (I hope) a very real and consistent culture, that leaves breadcrumbs for the reader to work out what the heck is happening and why. This is a slow burn story as the MC is stumbling around discovering her new place and role. Author's Note (Apr 2021): I dropped the Fantasy Genre for the Mystery Genre, because while the setting mentions magic, is it about past glories and trying to return to them. Whereas the MC from Chapter One doesn't understand her predicament and the range of mysteries she must solve to survive. If I have this wrong PM me and I will change this back.
