This is my first fanfic, so I am learning, I would be grateful for any comments and your inputs.
"Speaking out loud"
[Speaking in his mind]
--------
Fenix:"Well?" Fenix was growing impatient, the students were petrified after hearing him say 'training'.
Fenix:[Whats wrong with them? Are they idiots? Even if they are disabled, they will win me my gold!]
Jessica and Aaron gave each other a glance and pushed Drexel forward. He was a Rank C so their combined strength naturally only made him walk a step forward. This made it look like he volunteered to explain.
Drexel understood. This was his idea after all.
Drexel:"N-n-no, please! We just came to ask if you want to come with us to lunch!" He almost shouted, he desperately wanted to avoid a 'torture session'.
James:"Aah " James pouted and moaned while standing up and rubbing his ass.
Fenix:"Hm, I already ate, but I guess I can accompany you, if you don't mind."Fenix was bored, he was also suspicious in why they wanted him, he built up a notorious reputation on purpose, so he could avoid people unless it's necessary.
[Maybe some of the houses are picking with them, If so, I will show them kids the dark side of life]
The all walked to the cafeteria while chatting about life in the academy, Fenix doused his suspicion of them being bullied and is currently confused why they called him.
Jessica:"Fenix, you need to eat more healthily. All I saw in your room was ramen and coffee. Here have a bite!"
Jessica quickly shoved here fork down Fenixes mouth.
Fenix:[Wha-what is this women doing! First she rebuked the godly coffee and now she poisons me with vege--aargh!? No. This is good training for my endurance and anger limiter. Training. Yes!]
Fenixes mind was in turmoil as he was being force fed by the beautiful Jessica, she had a dark smile on her face while looking at the adorable Fenix, trying not to throw up.
Drexel and Aaron could only laugh. Jessica was a couple of years older than them, but all the boys went through some sort of training so they were around the same size. People looked with jealousy at Fenix and Jessica.
They were both respectively attractive and many people showered them with killing intent.
Fenix:[*Sob* How long will I have to endure this hell!?] he was internally sobbing while Jessica looked at him with that creepy sadistic smile, she was certainly a dark elf! An expert with poison, assassination and torture!

Professor Sinnil: "Welcome to your first class of mecha piloting! Today I will be teaching you what it means to be a pilot or mecha knight or mecha engineer and then we will do a practical. This lesson will be twice a week for the whole afternoon! I need to you to be top shape all the time because only 5 percent of your will pass to actually be a mecha Mage, the others will only do theory! Everyone in this classroom is rival!"
All the students in the class room nodded with determined looks on their faces. This is what they initially came for!
Only the main academy teaches mecha piloting in this plane. That's why people are shocked that the Pheonix house will participate, they usually never do because of their power and pride, it's also because most do theory and are like nerds, but even they are very powerful mages.

Professor Sinnil:"First, what is a mecha knight? Well, they are mecha mages who fight for royalty! The top of the empire! Each one is exceedingly powerful and are always A rank or higher same with most mecha wielders!
Out of the approximate 20 S rank (NOT including unknown people or monsters or dragons and only in this plane) 5 of them are mecha wielders.
As you all probably know, from Fenix, we will teach you the basics and how to train yourself in the higher metal affinity.
This is 0.5 percent of the whole affinity, which is pretty high, an average rank S will only know 5 percent of a Higher affinity.
A mecha pilot is someone who wields a mecha and are usually VIP adventurers or mercenaries!
A mecha engineer does not always have the ability to wield a mecha, they are usually trained in theory and use magic runes and science to create mecha for elite soldiers. These mecha have ranks depending on their magic core. They will never be as strong as a mecha wielders mecha since its core is artificially took from a high rank beast.
The core of the mecha usually creates the characteristics of a mecha, the core from beasts will give characteristics of the beasts like a mecha with a tiger type beast core will have features of a tiger but for mecha wielders it will take some characteristics of our soul, some may look like magical beasts, others may look like human knights or even weapons!"
Professor Sinnil said.
Fenix:[hmph, I know 0.2 percent of metal I'm progressing well considering I'm training the musical part of the higher affinity of sound at the same time, I wish I could use sound to wash away the bitter taste of vegetables off my mouth... Or is this the toast I'd defeat?! Oh gods, what have I done to deserve such a fate! Why defile my tongue with such disgusting...wait, why am I praying to myself and those bastards...] he pondered, losing his thoughts and conversing endlessly with himself in his mind...
Drexel:[ I never knew grandpa is so great! Only around 20 ranks S known which come from the main races that aren't dragons.... He even knows 15 percent of a higher affinity, no wonder the emperor treats him good...]
Drexel was pondering, also lost in his own thoughts.... Is he being brainwashed into something like Fenix?!
Has he truly joined the dark side? Is this why he always defends Fenix?
Professor Sinnil: "Look for a partner! We are going to do some practical work!"
While Drexel and Fenix were lost in their thoughts, everyone found a partner, James was instantly picked by some girl and Aaron and Jessica just went together since Fenix and Drexel were staring deeply into the ground.
Sinnil looked at Fenix who never found a partner, went behind Fenix and coughed.
Professor Sinnil: *Ahem* *Aheeeeem* "why do I even bother" after failing to get Fenixes attention he just mumbled something and pulled Fenix and Drexel together.
Fenix and Drexel were brought back to reality and looked at each other, both thinking the same thing.
[Nooo!]
Fenix wanted to research alone and Drexel didn't know if he could concentrate with someone as rowdy as Fenix.
He never seen Fenix train. When Fenix medicated in class, he looked like he was asleep or just closed his eyes,
since he wouldn't want anyone to copy his meditating technique.
Professor Sinnil:"The person next to you will be your research partner for this year! Get to know them!"

Sinnil continued: "I have brought in different mineral and metals, you will analyse them, then you will put them through different temperatures, moisture, acids and alkalis. You will right down the conclusions for each mineral. Then you will look through your book to see which characteristic of each mineral belongs to which. By the end of this you will give me the assignment to mark. This will help you know some of the basic metals and minerals! I have given you all the recourses, begin!"
Sinnil flipped his hand and the recourses materialised on their desks, as soon as he said begin, people began setting up everything and plugging everything in.
Everyone except Drexel and Fenix.
Drexel and Fenix just continued staring at each other. They were both clearly uncomfortable with each other's presences.
----------
*Haaah* Drexel sighed, finally finishing copying Fenixes work.
Fenix never needed to do the experiment, thanks to his prior lives he had immense knowledge.
But they were still last to finish!
Fenix and Drexel still had to do the experiments, much to Fenixes grumbling and protest, Sinnil was a bit forceful.
As they packed everything away only Sinnil, who was marking the work, Aaron, Jessica and James with his girl partner, were waiting.
Drexel and Fenix tidied everything and put the equipment and recourses into the correct boxes.
Jessica:"Want to come with us, we're going somewhere interesting after this!" Jessica said with a smile.
Fenix:"Nah, sorry but I have to do something."
Jessica only nodded and departed with Drexel and the others.
As Fenix was about to leave the class professor Sinnil stopped him.
"Fenix, why don't you go have some fun with kids your age, life is not all about training, you know?"
Looking at Fenix give only a shrug, the buff, bearded wizened Elven man could only give a sad sigh.
Professor Sinnil:"Oh, have you applied for the academies adventurers guild. If you do, you can do not only the adventurers guilds missions but also the academy ones too!"
Fenix:"Hmmm, interesting, I'll go right away! Cya!" Fenix quickly got excited, he wants to avoid boredom as much as he can! Sometimes training can't always satisfy him!
Sinnil only chuckled at looking at the childish side of Fenix "Cya!" He shouted back, staring at the lonely back if Fenix as he ran off. Only when Fenix left did he give a mischievous smile "I'm sorry, but to survive, you need comrades!"
If only he knew what Fenix was... Something like him was an exception...
--------------
Fenix ran into the academies adventurers guild, which was in the middle of the city.
Academy city is a huge city which encompasses a quarter of the island. (Think of the island as twice the size of the UK)
The city was lively and bustling, with trading and transactions going on all over the place. The centre of the city is even more lively, it's where you find the gigantic arena and academies adventurers guild, which gives special quests to students as well as the normal ones,
The academy adventurers guild was huge, inside there were many adventurers, students and professors!
It is mainly open with stairs upstairs going from the centre. The whole area was grand and the floor was polished to perfection.
It looks very grand--but not too over the top grand, it is mainly wood which gave a comfortable cosy vibe.
There is a huge section on the left for socialising with tables and a cafe/restaurant which also has a bar, many people were chatting and talking, some were having meetings.
On the right side is the administrating and recruiting centre, it is basically a counter with staff behind it, there is a giant pin board on the wall next to the counter which has many quests on it, many people are pondering and staring at quests, while many were taking them to the counter.
There were grand stairs coming from the centre which took you to the library and computers which enabled research, there was 1/4 of it being Book shelves, 1/4 being computer desks and 2/4 being tables for people to write and research on, it had a very quiet and peaceful atmosphere with people writing and researching about there quests.
Although it was not as grandeur as the academy library, it has a more cosy atmosphere because of the cheery and dedicated nature of adventurers.
Fenix walked to the recruiting counter, which was no longer busy, and tried getting the ladies attention.
The guild staff of the academy adventurers guild were mainly teachers who were adventurers and they were all professionals or experts at B or rank A.
The lady looked up and found nobody staring at her, she then took of her glasses and wiped them, still not finding anyone, she looked back at her paper work and sighed.
Fenix:"Excuse me!" Fenix was getting a little agitated.
The pretty mature lady finally noticed Fenix and was staring down at him with surprise. She, as a teacher naturally heard of this boy and quickly tried consoling his anger.
"Sorry I didn't notice you, professor Fenix, what would you like today." She couldn't help but giggle when she called the adorable 9 year old professor but tried holding her composure.
Fenix:"I would like to apply to become and official adventurer, I am already rank A, as you probably know, so I think I am qualified"
The lady was sweating bullets, but still held up her beautiful smile, keeping up the facade.
Lady:"I'm sorry, but since your classed as a half student you will have to join a party first, before doing solo quests, this is because the headmaster believes you are too inexperienced. "
Fenix:"grrr!" Fenix growls but grits his teeth.
Another member of staff:"we're really sorry!" Many of the administration staff were listening closely and we're all on guard, they heard about this boys notorious temper. They were pretty much whimpering in their minds when they heard him growl.
Many of the adventurers noticed the fearsome staff cower and looked at the source: a boy.
The adventurers were not shy of the world, they knew there were many experts out there, so they avoided the boy and merely whispered about him.
"Psst, that boy has an incredibly baleful aura and immense killing intent... We should avoid someone like him, he can be a monster in disguise, I heard of some rank A monsters that can transform."
Drexel, James and the crew heard the noise and gossip. They immediately had a suspicion someone they knew were here.
They walked up to Fenix who was gritting his teeth, trying to think of something else he can do .
James:"Yo Fenix, I heard you need to join a party, we need one more anyway so why don't you join."
Fenix:"hmm?" He noticed the group staring at him intently.
Aaron:"Yeah, so far we only have 5: Me, Drexel, Jessica, James and his new partner Arina."
Fenix analysed Arina, she looked like a timid girl, so never really noticed her. She was about a year older than Jessica and was a beast girl of the cat tribe and yo be more precise the tiger clan.
How could such a timid girl be from the mighty tiger clan? Who know.
She was a very white tiger beast girl, she had white adorable cat ears, that had some stripes on and a tail with many stripes.
She looked cute and shy.
Fenix:[Hmm, interesting party, 2 dual wielders one being c rank with two opposite elements, the other is a dark elf with higher affinity of darkness, two tri elementals and a rare variant of a beast man from the tiger clan, amazing potential! I shall convert them! They shall pray to the evil Pheonix of darkness, day and night! Mwahahah!]
Fenix:"Sure!" Fenix responded excitedly, with a childish grin on his face.
The others could only be shocked with how his personality fluctuates to dark, grim and evil into childish, excited and innocent. The administrators gave a sigh of relief, many wiped sweat of their brow and slumped on their chairs, asking for a holiday.
Staff 1:[At Least we never ended up like those professors *gulp*]
The lady who was first administrating smiled and gave him the form. She was initially not their to see what happened and only heard rumours from her friends and colleagues. Even with his slight aura leakage, she couldn't entirely believe what they said.
Staff 2:[If only she knew...I really do hope those guys get better...]
Fenix:"Ok, so what's our party called?"
Drexel:"Sinners"
Fenix gave a dark, calculating smile.
Fenix:[What a coincidence, a fitting name with what I'm going turn them into! Mwahahaha]
*Grin*
Fenix:"Good name" he said, trying to hide his malevolent thoughts.
Everyone in the room simultaneously felt a sudden chill.
They all knew something bad was born that day... Something very bad...

Magriculture
When Aurum Industries announced the first Full Immersion Virtual Reality Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (FIVRMMORPG if you're hip) Limitless Online, most people saw it as an opportunity to live out their sword and sorcery fantasies. John, however, saw it as the opening of a new and as of yet uncrowded job market. One he was willing, and eager, to exploit. Determined to make money through virtual hard work and effort, John sets his sights not on the heights of magic or the perfection of the sword, but instead upon the tilling of the soil and the sowing of seeds as he explores the wide and wonderful world of magical agriculture all from the comfort of his own bed. Disclaimer: This is, at best, a very rough draft. I have already had to do one major rewrite and several minor rewrites of entire sections of the story, and it is a virtual certainty I will have to do re-writes again. Such changes may be as small as editing a few numbers (such as going back and changing how much mana an object holds) or it may force me to re-write entire chapters (this has happened once already, and I'm really hoping it doesn't happen again, but... life). Minor re-writes will probably never be posted here. Major rewrites probably will.Anyway, what this boils down to is: If you're looking for a fully cohesive story with few to no errors and publisher level editing, this is not the story for you. If your looking for a cohesive plot that's more than "Man farms, man farms, man farms well, man maybe makes money" you're probably also in the wrong place, but I will attempt to entertain you anyway.

The Traitor Games
Welcome to the Traitor Games, and congratulations on your invitation to join as one of the races putting on a show for the galaxy. Your species has been judged as too violent for integration into the Galactic Conglomerate and thus the decision has been made to relegate you to a probationary period during which members of your species will be pitted against each other in games of lies and betrayal. Unfortunate, but the great thing about a probationary period is that it can end! How can we do that; you might be asking. Well, that's easy, if those participants can earn enough points through playing the games, they can potentially buy out your probationary time. Of course, other rewards will also be on offer for success in the games, and if none of your species chooses to be selfless, well then it just goes to show that you wouldn't have been a good fit for us anyway. All those on Earth unlucky enough to not be chosen to become part of one of the most popular shows on Galactic Television, fear not. We will be streaming the various games your race is participating in all across the world. Should we run out of participants, even with our most generous three life system, we will draw more from the population. Good Luck! Noah Landry is one of these participants, he just doesn't know it yet. He blacks out while walking to the local bar McCaffery's, and finds himself, somewhere else. He's wearing clothing he doesn't remember putting on and rocking an absolute banger of a headache. Now he needs to figure out where he is, what's going on, and how he can get out of the Traitor Games. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

The Lone Prospect
New rules. New girl. New home. Ex-military and werewolf, Gideon Vonrothe is looking for a place to belong. His first and last hope for a pack to call his own is the Heaven’s Heathen’s Motorcycle Club. Being the new prospect isn’t going to be easy. Rebels with a cause, the members of the Heaven’s Heathens motorcycle club regularly risk life and limb to rescue those in need, all to protect their greatest secret, that they’re all werewolves. Now a new member has petitioned to join the pack… The Heaven’s Heathens are supposed to be a big bad motorcycle club, a brethren of tough as nails hard asses. Formed out of necessity after the Cascading War, the Heaven’s Heathens have the reputation of being the toughest sons of bitches in Colorado. Their membership filled with those that have little use for society’s rules and pay lip service to laws outside their own. Insular and hierarchal, a new member can throw off the entire group. And they’re Gideon VonRothe’s last hope for a life that feels familiar or else he’s resigned to go back to the family farm. He doesn’t know anything about the Heathens, or motorcycle clubs. He doesn’t even own a motorcycle. An outsider, ex-military and unsuspecting sucker, Gideon is the latest victim of the Club’s brotherhood appeal. Vice President Savannah Barker knows better. The Club is a bunch of party loving, thrill seeking adrenaline junkies with a nose for mischief. Their idea of playing hard is a good brawl and involves the words trigger happy lunatics. Her Grandfather, Brand, President of the Club is the worst of the lot. It’s the officers’ jobs to keep the rest of the world from find out that they’re more than a group that loves motorcycles and explosions. They’re werewolves. The Club is the pack and the pack is a family with siblings that squabble. Their outlet is Heaven Has Mercy, private security for hire. No wars. No assassinations. Before the new prospect can change the rankings, Brand sends the ignorant Gideon on a rescue mission under the supervision of Savannah and her team. Soon the bets are flying on if Gideon has what it takes and how long this lone prospect is going to last. The routine snag and drag turns complicated when it turns out the client lied, and an attack on their home turf makes some believe that the new Prospect is involved. The Heathen’s have a responsibility to the man they rescued and their reputation is on the line. Is this a new beginning or the beginning of the end for the Heaven’s Heathens?
