《Hex [h.s]》Chapter Thirty-nine
Advertisement
After bidding both of my parents farewell, Randy carefully assisted me to the door, scared that I may trip or ran over a wall, but before could even turn the knob, dad warned Randy playfully out of nowhere. "You better bring back our daughter in one piece young man!" Randy turn towards dad, and all I did was drop my jaw."Or you'll be sorry."
"Dad!" I gasped, clearly not expecting it. Was he out of his mind to threaten Randy? Well, one thing I was sure of, it was an empty threat. Dad wasn't capable of violence, but we don't know for sure.
"It's alright." Randy whispers, before clearing his throat. "Yes sir, I would take care of your daughter. You don't have to worry." Randy spoke with confidence.
"Be back before night falls, let's sat, eight p.m sharp."
"Yes sir." Randy answers, earning a scoff from dad. "You better, now run along." And Randy and I were out of the house, him guiding me where the car was parked.
"Oh! And one more thing!" I heard dad yell, making me groan. What was it now? "Keep your hands to yourself mister!" That was the last thing he said before hearing the front door shut.
I mentally facepalmed myself, how could he embarrass me without even knowing? Damn, is it that oblivious? Well, some parents are oblivious to the obvious, set your mother for example. My subconscious mocks.
I suddenly felt eyes were staring at me, but it disappeared once Randy muttered something under his breath. "What?"
"Your parents are looking at us through the window." He whispers, and I huffed in annoyance. "Just don't mind them."
Randy opens the passenger door for me, letting me in first, before he made his way to the driver's seat. The engine roared to life, and

before I knew it, the SUV backed out of the drive way, and soon sped along.
I finally sigh in relief, opening the window to my left. I pushed my arm out, letting it hit the sun's rays. I smiled in glee when the air hit my face, making my damp hair fly around wildly.
This is, freedom. I laughed when Randy chuckled, seriously, his laugh is contagious. Yeah, but Harry's lips are desirable. I froze,my laughter died down, before looking at Randy. One hand was on the wheel while the other was on his phone.
I looked at the boy, the boy who treasured our times together. The boyfriend that I always wanted. But right now? I couldn't look at him because of shame, what happens if he finds out that I kissed a someone else? A demon to point it out, will he leave me?
Of course he would, you idiot! My subconscious mind remarks. Why would he stay and pretend it didn't happen, when you choosed him over a freak of nature?
I didn't choose Harry over him, what makes you say that? I snapped. Let's not forget Harry is a malefic person. A product of evil. And he's malevolent, so why on earth would I like him?
You do now, don't you? My subconscious sneered, don't you like Harry? The way he held you close to him? When he stares at you like you're the last thing left on this earth? The way he kisses your lip -stop!
"Lucy, are you okay?" I snapped out of my train of malicious thoughts, and divert my attention to my boyfriend. "Huh? Y-yeah! I'm okay." I answered with a nervous laugh.
"You wanna tour the town?" He suddenly ask out of the blue. I nodded, "Yeah, I always wanted to, but let's just say I got busy and all. So, I never had the time." I answered, half of it was true, she was busy. Busy trying to kick Harry's bloody arse out of his own house.

"Do you want to go to Silent Mound High?"
The question caught me off guard, making my jaw drop in utter shock. I wasn't aware that I was silent for two good minutes when Randy address me again.
"Well Lucy? Are you?" His question seems to haunt me, but I manage to say my answer. "Yeah, o-of course." This made him frown, "I thought you hated the idea?"
Yeah, I thought you did. My subconscious spoke, before I blocked her out. Now's not the time for silly and nonsence stuff.
"I-I actually don't know. I don't wanna finish my high school here, but what choice do I have?" I leaned on my seat, pulling ny hand in from the window and looked down.
Even if I don't have a blurry vision, I can tell he was frowning at my answer. Bug before he could talk, I beat him to it, "I don't have a choice but to accept it Randy. As much as I want to go back and finish our highschool together. I can't."
He chuckled, much to my surprise. I expected him to be furious, or maybe sadden, but not chuckling as if it was nothing. "Sheesh, chill babe. You sounded like you wanna break up with me." He joked, but I didn't find it funny.
The rest of the ride was silent, as we tour around town. It seems like Silent Mound isn't as huge as I thought it would be. After a few turns, Randy spoke. "You know, when I first got here, I was confused."
I cocked an eyebrow, "Why?" I questioned and he sighs. "It wasn't easy for me to get here. Once your dad heard from you, he tracked your cell phone. He wanted me to come along, but I wasn't ready at that time, so I told him I'll catch up." He spoke, "So after convincing my parents, I packed and left to meet your father here."
"So? What's so confusing?" I can't help but be curious. "Well, before your dad left, he once again called saying to meet him in Silent Mound, I didn't know where in the world it was, so I asked the taxi driver to take me there. When he search it up in the gps, it was so odd."
"Why?"
"It wasn't located anywhere. It shows that Silent Mound doesn't exist. It isn't in the map." He shrugs, "I don't know why, but I think his gps was broken."
I frowned, surely Silent Mound is in the map. "So, how did you get here?"
"I told your dad about my predictment, so he came back and took me." He said, "It was really weird, for a second I thought it was a ghost town or some sort, but when I got here, it does exist."
The SUV stopped, I looked at him, "Why did we stop?"
He got out of his car and opened my door, "Well, after hours touring this town, I thought you might be hungry. After all, it is past lunch time. " He spoke, and I can tell he was grinning. "And, due to our little tour, I found this diner that looks pleasing."
"Okay." I mumbled and took his hand, which he held up for me to take. As we walk towards a small building, I can't help but wonder. Why the hell is Silent Mound not in the map?

Far Strider
A college student finds himself transported into a strange land with burgeoning magical powers, and is taken in by Ned Stark. Will he sink or swim in this medieval society, and will he ever get home? ====================== OC-insert without knowledge of Game of Thrones, new planeswalker. Slow power ramp. Second crossover: Star Wars (around chapter 39). ======================= As a note, I started this as a speed writing challenge to myself. The challenge was successful, and I managed 100,000+ words (as well as some character sheets in excel and such) over 10.5 days. Then I had to stop and let my hands recover from their burgeoning carpal tunnel syndrome. The story currently stands at around 150,000 words (or ~550 RRL pages) over 54 chapters; expect a chapter a day until I've caught up with the backlog. The focus of this story was not quality writing, and that hasn't changed. I mostly use it as my semi-guilty "I need to write something, but am not focused enough to write something good" story. Expect self-indulgent writing in general, and a bit of OP (or, well, more than just a bit if we're being honest), especially later in the story as the protagonist matures into a more full-blown Planeswalker. But if you're looking for something with a power-ramping protagonist romping around the place, something you'd be a bit embarrassed to admit liking (I know I am) but like anyways (and come on, this is RRL, so that probably describes just about everyone here who actually has shame), then this may be a nice bit of mental junk food for you.

The Villain's Double Life
“The Villain’s Double Life as the Hero’s Mentor," “Demon Nobles Want to Live Too: A Hero-Raising Simulator for the Transmigrated Villain," “Just Because I’m a Villain Doesn’t Mean I Want the World to End!” Cyrus Calvide was the second son of an aristocratic lord; haughty, vain and power-hungry. One day, when his ancestral inheritance manifested, he discovered he was able to steal other’s powers and abilities using demonic magic. Taking this as a sign that he was destined to rule over others and become the new king of this land, he poisoned his father, killed his elder brother, and embarked on the path to greatness, taking advantage of a demonic invasion to consolidate power and harvest the abilities of others in a cruel and bloody fashion. Until he was summarily defeated by the Hero as a mid-game boss battle and executed for his crimes, of course. When a dedicated fan of the RPG “Next to Eden” awakened in the body of the cruelest future Count, four years before the beginning of the game, he pledged to live humbly. He would let his brother lead and support the Hero from the shadows to ensure the demon invasion would be defeated and he could enjoy life in peace. Rather, he would have, if he hadn’t gotten the Hero’s mentor killed in a freak monster attack before the Hero’s training could even begin. How was he supposed to live a life of peace and luxury if the Hero couldn’t stop the end of the world!? Donning a mask, Cyrus took up mentoring the Hero himself; how hard could it possibly be? . . . Four years later, the kind jack-of-all-trades hero Leon had become a twisted powerhouse: alienating his party members, clearing enemy encounters in a single magical blast, and coldly ignoring the affections of the girl whose love would have allowed him to clear the final boss. He seemed to have plastered himself to his Master’s side, instead. Cyrus bit back his despair while the hero reached out to grasp his hand. “Please stop ignoring the saint, Leon; you can't beat the Demon King by grinding stats! You need the power of love, remember?” “Don’t worry, Master,” Leon smiled as he traced the lines of Cyrus’s palm gently, almost reverently. “I have all the love I need.” VDL is two parts plot and worldbuilding, one part slow-build gay romance, starring a man far too proud to admit he's in over his head and the hero who loves him. Should be updating weekly.
