《Day Light'S ( The Vaccine )》Curiosity Strikes
Advertisement
Jack step inside his car and started the engine, then took his last glance to the building. Thought that he made a big mistake on what has happen because of his technology. He is being part of the failure of the earphone. He just hope that someday that thing he wanted to get in his old office will save the earth and will get it back to normal. He was hoping it and would be better if it would be soonest.
Jack press the button of the stereo in his car and he was listening to the music while driving. He even sing at a time when he suddenly notice that the was out of gas and he saw the warning light in front of him. He tries to look for a nearest gas station to fill in his gas tank.
He saw on his left side and stop it right there. He fills in the gas of his car while his eyes were wandering around and saw something that moves when he take a glance to the convenience store. He let his car fill in whilst he walk his way to the convenience store. He was getting closer when he saw that it was an attacker (living dead), so he stop and walk back to his car while his eyes were still looking at the convenience store. He saw the attacker moving his jaw and teething like he was going to attack readily if he sees someone get closer to it.
He immediately take out the filling gas and put it back then he quickly step inside his car and then drove away from that place. He saw his time in his stereo it is already 3:20 in the afternoon.
Meanwhile at the Lab..
Austin makes himself busy for a while, he trues to watch some educational videos and read a lot of books. But even though he does that, he still gets bored easily and wanted to go outside of the lab but he can't go and his father wouldn't want him to. He even thought that he was being a prison inside, can never even take a glance to the sun in the morning and the moon at nigh.

Can't even know if it is already night or day if it is not only his gonna look the clock beside his table or his watch on his wrist. It kills him but he need to follow every possibility that his father will get mad if he will not listen to what he says. But he might considering of talking to his father about him going outside the lab. If he permits him or not.
He was on that thought when the elevator chimes and that means his father is already at home. He run and take a look at it and he was right it was his father. He was smiling looking at him.
"Did you bring something for me?" Austin was very excited while asking.
"Oh I am so sorry son, I was busy at my work and forgot to buy your favorite chocolates." Jack responded as he was trying to explain to Austin that he really did forgot to bring him something.
He even slap his forehead to let Austin felt that he really did forget it. It was actually what he was going to do earlier at the convenience store but seeing the attacker made him not to go.
"Oh." Austin takes a sighed and felt disappointed at the same time while he was really missing his mom a lot too.
It has been too long months that his father didn't let him know what happen to his mother. He thought that his father would be like his mom that every time his mother go home she never miss out bringing his favorite chocolates with her. And that makes then different to his dad who were always busy with work and projects. Can't even saw him in the morning because he always locked himself in his room.

Jack knelt in front of his son because he saw the face of Austin that he was too upset. Because it has been three times already that Austin asked something every time Jack got home. He hold his chin to lift it up for hom to be able to see his son's face and then Jack smile.
"Don't worry my son, tomorrow I promise I will bring something for you? Is that okay?" Jack trying to convince his son and to not felt any disappointments anymore.
"Hmmm?" Austin tries to smile and stare at his father's face.
There is some sudden changes in his appearance and it started Austin to felt curious. But then he nodded to what his father just said.
"Do you have specific things or food you want me to bring to you?" Jack asked with a smile on his face.
"Hmmm.. My favorite chocolates!" Austin exclaimed as Jack slowly stand up.
"Okay I got it!" Jack said as he carry his son.
"You stink! Did you take a bath already?" Jack asked as he was sniffing through the body of his son.
Austin was tickled of what his father was doing so he didn't help himself but to giggle. Jack slowly put down Austin.
"Go and take a shower and I'll make us some dinner." He said and Austin run to his room to take a bath while his father preparing their food for that night.
While they were eating at the table Austin glance ag his father and didn't yet started to eat his food on his plate. Jack notice him and so he stare at him and ask.
"Why aren't you eating? You don't like the food?" Jack cooked a steak and asparagus as a side dish on their plate.
Austin didn't responded back to his father's question.
"You want me to cook another food for you?" Jack continues and Austin suddenly interrupted staring at his father.
"Nope that it looks delicious but was just curious about something." Austin responded still staring at his father's face like he was trying to observe every details on his face.
"I was just wondering dad, your hair. It's gotten long already. Do you think it's time to have a haircut?" Austin continues while looking at his father's hair.
In those months that Jack has been busy, he really didn't notice his looks. He was just concentrating on finishing his inventions at all cause. For him, it's most important. And he wouldn't let it pass since it is for the safety of everybody that's why he keeps making those bombs.
"Look!" Austin pointed their mirror near them for Jack to had a look at his face. Austin was trying to convince his father to go to the salon for him to get outside because he wanted to see the outside world already. What it looks like.
Austin smiled as he was having that thought.

Sanguine
The Coles are probably the definition of a small dysfunctional family, even if they weren’t the worst in existence; they would probably be lauded as an example of the term. The Coles were a small family though. The father, Oliver Cole, was an asshole ex-football jock who bounced around in small paying jobs after wasting most of his life drinking, drugging and whoring. The daughter, Stacy Cole, was smart, but had many issues including anger, trouble with authority, and occasional suicidal thoughts, and was kicked out of many a school for disruptive behaviour. The son, Mike Cole, was innocent, and tried his best to be kind to anyone and everyone, however his own speech impediment, and slow nature only aided people to bully and belittle him, including his own father. The Coles were indeed a dysfunctional family. At least they were, until they got to the small town near the border between the United States and Canada, Sanguine. Welcome to Sanguine. You will stay. With the exception of the first chapter, each chapter only follows one character. The first chapter is the only chapter in which I will include 'Sides' where it follows a different character. This is a short Lovecraftian story, it won't go above seventeen chapters. Note: the book cover is my first attempt, it might not even remain like it is, I was just tired of seeing the standard 'no cover' thing on it.

Tabula Rasa : An Unbound Adventure
It starts as many things do: a clean slate, an empty page. What once was set in stone and wholly writ is gone, and all that's left is the vague notion of absence, a fullness lacking.The feeling of being tetherless, pathless, without direction or responsibility is something many would find terrifying. Others might find it freeing - an opportunity to strike out on new adventures and explore the unknown.Either way, first they have to figure out where they are and how they leave. ====== My first novel on this platform! An avid GameLit/LitRPG fan, I decided to start writing this when I seemed to exhaust all of my options for well reviewed content on the site! Inspiration for the world/general feeling is a mix of Azarinth Healer, Abyssal Road Trip, Winterborn, and the Power of Ten series, with a strong reliance on 3.5 and PF1 frameworks as a scaffold for the world. I see Arc 1 as a Robinson Crusoe style coming to terms scenario, lots of exploration of the System, the MC's options, the island and encounters with the denizens and visitors of the Timeless Isle, with a non-zero amount of introspection around their long term goals. I'll publish as frequently as I'm able but don't have a regular cadence planned at the moment.
