《Seven Facts Of A Hunter》Chapter 32
Advertisement
Of course, knowing you and Sam, you had made your way to the couch where you sat comfortably. Sams back was against the arm of the seat, his legs flung over the top of yours and his laptop on his lap. The tablet was rested on his legs, where you half-listened to the TV which was set on the news. Sam and you were ignoring it, at least until you both heard something that caught your attention.
"Turn it up." You said as he grabbed the remote.
He turned up the volume, you both sat quietly listening to the reporter "The disappearance of the three young adults in the west river area of South Dakota has gained nationwide recognition, the police think they may have found a connection between the kidnappings."
"That's our case!" Sam adds, putting his feet to the ground.
"Police say all three had last contacted an unidentified woman before going missing. We will play the audio from one of the calls, if you recognize the voice, please call the number on the screen."
You quickly reached over to the table and grabbed the recorder, getting ready to capture the voice "A little more." You say, him turning it up even louder.
The screen shifts to show a cell phone, your signal to hit record. (Italic is the culprit)"Hello? *breathing* hello? Who's this? Greed. Greed? Hello? Who is this? If this is a prank you guys are sick. Greed. Seven of you! Greed. You are greed! Greed! " The tape ended with the sound of the phone hanging up, meaning it was your turn to stop as well.
Sam shut off the TV and turned to you "What the hell was that?" He asked, his eyes drawn to the recorder.
You shrugged "No idea..."

Now, the both of you were again at the table, books lining every possible space. The recorder sat between you, playing the audio on an endless loop. Flipping through page after page, you finally listened closely enough that something poped out at you. Your discovery made you pause the tape, causing Sam to look up at you.
"Getting sick of it?" He scoffed, looking back down at his book.
"Did you notice how the other one said she was greed? Not greedy, but greed?" You asked, him giving you a weird look.
"So maybe a vengeful spirit?" Sam questioned, flipping pages franticly in the book as a ding sounds from the tablet.
You grab it and look at the notification, sighing angrily and holding out to Sam "Another two were reported missing with the same credentials as the other three."
He takes it and frowns "We can't wait any longer. We have to get out there and stop it. If when she said seven means there will be seven victims, we have no time to waist."
You nod and close your book, throwing on your jacket and standing along with him, and follow him up the stairs to the garage. Grabbimg the keys from a peg board on the wall, he gestures toward a nearby navy blue truck. Jumping inside, Sam grabbed your get-away bags from the shelf and threw them in the back, under the truck bed tarp. He then slid in and started it, you two quickly leaving. You send Dean a text telling him you are leaving and kick off your boots, throwing your heels up onto the dash.
"Ah, I can never do this when we are in the impala." You sigh, getting comfortable.
"Who says you can do that in here?" He asked, reaching over and tickling your foot, causing you to pull it back with a squeak.
He laughed and you joined him, turning on the radio to a hard rock station, which happened to be playing Lowlife by Theory of a Deadman, to which you knew all of the lyrics. You turned it up and began rocking out to it, causing Sam to laugh at your excited antics. The ride there was calm, and filled with laughter and ridiculous comments and conversations.

Lineage Saga (Kingdom Building Fantasy)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The continent of Erdenia is in flux, nations large and small move to swallow their neighbors. Roving bands of marauders pillage the countryside, and the seas are choked with piracy. Against this backdrop upon the central island of Syroneika exists the Mercan League, an alliance of city states ruled by the Archon from his seat in the Capital, Merlabria. Yet all is not well beneath the surface. The Archon’s health is waning, while the House of Mercan appears on the verge of conflict. Both princes vie for the Archonship, with the aristocracy close behind looking to settle old scores. In the immediate west the Althai Federation is in a state of civil war, the conflict spilling over the border into the League, while nobles’ squabble over petty slights. In this time of growing conflict, the Archon has summoned the warlord of the southern frontier, bulwark against the horrors of the dark forest, and former Grand Scholar of the court. Behind the scenes pieces are in play, and the Scholar possesses numerous enemies, many still envious of his meteoric rise to power. A simple trip to the capital may be more than it appears. However, the branches of fate are fickle things, a single encounter could change the course of history. Or perhaps that is simply the will of fate, and nothing has changed at all, who could know? Could the meeting between a simple slave and a warlord truly be fate’s bough? And if so, where could that lead?

Giantslayer
Synopsis: Alain is a fledgling Giantslayer, enhanced individuals capable of killing deadly giants. But these giants are not big, they are what ancient humans would refer to as mundane animals or beasts. 'The Final Curse' as many humans call it, was a curse that shrunk down the entire human population to the size of small rodents. When the curse first occurred, the majority of the human population was eaten by beasts who are now of towering heights and sizes. But their abandoned gargantuan structures were not built for naught, the remaining humans retreated back into their now giant buildings and rebuild societies and nations inside of them. Follow Alain in his quest to right the wrongs done to his past and hunt down the elusive and mythical Elder Giants, giants capable of intellects and speech. Are they real? Alain certainly insists so despite no one believing him. But perhaps it did not matter, they were real enough to him for what they did to his family. A/N: I'm pretty new to writing creatively so I hope to improve as we move along the story. The prose I use is still fairly simple and 'plain', but I am also new to literature in general so I am hoping to improve my vocabulary as well. It should also come under no surprise that I am a non-native English speaker and writer as well. With that said, I do appreciate constructive feedback. Please don't be overly mean at least. All the chapters are rough drafts that will be edited in the future. The cover is by this user from pixiv: https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/4545042

Chosen of Silver
In the lands of Neden, children with gates--birthmarks able to accept and hold the power of soulstones--are collected every five years, when they reach age fifteen to nineteen. It is nearly time for the newest cohort to be celebrated and then conscripted, and with that day looming, those whose lives are about to change wait impatiently for their destiny to arrive...or try to find a way to avoid it: Cal, a refugee from the nation of Caas, doesn’t want to go to Kellingherth to gain the powers of man, beast, or element, and he certainly doesn’t want to join the war efforts after that. The only things he’s dying for are a good drink, dance, and girl, in no particular order. His best friend Raff prefers his sweat to come from a hard day's training than an evening carousing and wishes Cal did, too. He wants to accomplish more with his life than becoming a simple palace sentry like his estranged father and will do whatever it takes to get there. And they are just two of many. When the tenuous peace of the realm is threatened by the arrival of an old enemy, these young chosen will likely be swept up in events rather than prevent them, but the future cannot be rushed or escaped, only experienced.
