《The Innocent Soldier - Linstead》Chapter 3
Advertisement
Once we got home last night, Jay went straight to bed. Avoiding the subject of what happened last night. Now this morning, even on days off he usually wakes up around 8:30am. It's now 9:43am and he's still not up. I'm letting him rest but I haven't seen him in 4 months so I'd like to do something with him. I'm calling Voight.
*ring*
V- "Hey Erin."
E- "Hank, Jay got home yesterday evening."
V- "Really?"
E- "Yeah but last night, he ran from the fireworks. Hiding from them basically. And now he won't get out of bed. I haven't seen him in 4 months and he's barely talking to me!"
V- "Calm down Erin. He's probably seen some things. Come by the district later and I'll talk to him."
E- "Thanks Hank."
*beep beep beep*
That's the 10am alarm. I don't want to get up. After what happened last night, I don't want to face the issue. I know you're not suppose to run from your problems but I really want to right now.
"Jay, it's 10 o'clock. Can you get up now? Please?" I heard Erin say as then I felt a dip in the bed and a hand on my shoulder. I turn onto my back and look at her.
"I know you're thinking about what happened last night. I'm not holding it against you."
"What about my job Erin? If I can't handle fireworks, how am I gonna handle a gun?"
"We'll figure it out. We're gonna run by the district later in the day to discuss that with Hank."
"Does he know what happened?"
She nods. I nod back. I'm not very excited to talk to Voight about this but right now, my main focus is food and a nice hot shower.

Embers in the Ash
Four ordinary young people from four corners of the Earth wake up on a hill in another world. Here, their very presence is a crime against the Gods. On the fringes of civilization, life is often brief and always violent, but in the Empire's Heartland, implacable hunters seek to rectify their blasphemous existence with Blade and Fire. To return home, they will need to adapt to a place where their life will be earned in steel. But what will they be ready to sacrifice for their goal? Will their flame flicker out like so many others before them? Or will they thrive as Embers in the Ash? Hello, and welcome to my first fiction on this site! Embers in the Ash is an epic fantasy adventure story that aims to span quite a few chapters (I hope!). To set expectations, this isn't going to be a LitRPG or power fantasy-style story. I'm aiming for a fairly grounded story set in a fairly high-fantasy world. I hope you enjoy it! For this first month of publication, my aim is to give you, the reader, something to really bite into. I will be releasing a chapter every day at 9:15 AM EST (13:15 GMT), as well as the occasional double chapter (which will always be announced by a post-chapter author blurb). Check in fifteen minutes after the first chapter's release! After this first month of publication, the aim is to go for either a weekly or bi-weekly release schedule, depending on the sort of time I can reliably dedicate to writing. Either way, settle in for the long haul, and welcome to the story!

最も強い -- ( Strongest in existence ~)
First of all this is a story that I´m writing casually in my free time so i think for the first few chapters dont expect regular updates.. This will be a story where the comment squad has a heavy influence on the story because I would find it funny to try and mix some things in that you guys suggest me in the comments :)Anyway now to the synopsis : This is a story about a boy named James Anderson.James died because he was struck by lightning while he was walking down the street on a rainy evening... After he thought everything was over he heard a voice asking him for a wish and for one wish only.. He knew his answer as soon as the question was asked because he fought for his whole life despite being only 19 years old.. He always has had a rough time because his family was poor and they needed to fight for every bit of money they could get.. he got in fights a lot.. so his wish was a simple one that would change everything.. " I wish to have the potentiell to become the strongest being in all existence so that i dont have to fight anymore ! " I dont really know where this story will go but i have a few ideas in mind, as alredy mentioned before, i write this on a whim and hopefully " together " with the readers...I hope you enjoy the story ~~~ PS: Cover found on Google, i own no rights on that one.
