《Re:elemental The Greatest Spark [Hiatus]》Chapter 2) Life is like a box of chocolates
Advertisement
I don't know how long I've floated here, the events prior still clear as day and yet regardless of what I do I nothing changes, I can't possibly be dead, I haven't finished writing my fanfictions (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Neither heaven or hell has come for me could it be that I'm in a coma?
Recalling my extensive knowledge of manga, light novel and fan fiction (no I'm not an Otaku) I should expect a kick to the balls any time soon...
As if on cue *Ding*

It took me a second, then a minute before it sunk in
"Hey wait a fuc..."
Sudden the once barren void started to shift, the blue screen shook and an invasion of colour's rushed to fill the once empty space.
Disorientated I hardly had any time before gasping in shock at this brand new world I was in, this was definitely not the city I was once in as I stared in disbelief, what was once a busy city filled with skyscrapers was now completely gone, I half expected myself to just wake up in my bed having experienced a horrible nightmare and yet, what lay before me was testament that I was no longer in London.
Looking around more I found myself not surrounded by the remains of my house or street but I was in a forest that spanned hundreds of acre’s of vast green tree’s and yet this was tiny in comparison to the physics defying islands in the sky, motionless islands of varying sizes and altitudes littered the sky, some were no bigger than a house while the largest was the size of a large mountain.

Apparently my grand entrance was a rather fiery one, situated in a small crater is where I am, around me appears to be fallen tree's both on fire and charred from an impact, in the epicentre was me and a rather mysterious ruby, perfectly cut 5cm by 5cm the smallish ruby sat floating above the dirt.
Having regained my composure I found to my surprise that I had blue icons in my peripheral vision, focusing on them they responded in kind.

Still in shock I forced myself to focus, I felt nothing of my limbs hell I couldn't even see any of my once human features I must be in greater shock than I even realise, I force myself to think like any other standard protagonist, cast the spell of Hero's, Identify, normally you have to work hard to achieve this spell but I can tell that the system sees me as a worthy of owning this skill.
Now all I need is a fitting vict...subject to example, examining around my eyes trail to the crater I'm in spotting the ruby in its shiny glory it seems like a fitting test subject.

- The core of an elemental is all but Indestructible to all physical and magical attacks, only the gods could pierce it
I was baffled, why would such a thing be here?
In a game this would have been end gear loot, only reserved for the best of the best and yet it was here sitting in the middle of a forest, it was one mystery I would have to investigate later on, the more serious issue needed to be tended to, the ultimate fantasy of all boys, magic!
it would be so simple for me, years of light novels had taught me the secret tricks to using magic, I had been "taught" that the key to magic is visualising how you needed it, for example Fireball, a simple spell in all MMO's and as the name implies a simple ball of flame.
Now however was the moment of truth, I was felt adventurous why start with the boring spell when I could conjure flames out of nothing!
I prepared myself, I could FEEL the magic, as if a cool wave over a blazing inferno washed over me I prepared my spell.
"Fire Spr...." Suddenly before I finished chanting the spell as if someone had popped a party popper a small smokescreen appeared in front of me, from it a tiny figure with wings appeared.
"Hey ther....!" (tiny fairy) *FWOOOOOOSH* "....Waaaah" I scream as I loose control over my spell.
My spell hit the tiny creature, its features instantly vaporizing within seconds but i still continue to keep firing even after its charred body hits the ground with a weak thud, it took me a few seconds until I regain myself and stop my spell.
"......"
a lone gust of wind blew past me, silence returned as I stared at the mess I had made, that once tiny fairy now lays as charred meat, since when did this ever happen? did I just kill the cute side companion, the one that every story focuses on when it requires the cute factor to rely on?
As if sensing the awkwardness the system didn't spare a moment before celebrating my "achievement".
Title Aquired (Fairy Butcher)DescriptionFor refusing the help of a helper fairy and then proceeding to murder it you are forever marked by fairy kind as a monster
- Fairies cower from you and refuse to help you

Beast
A threat to the galaxy has come from another, and the Union of intelligent life will go to any length to stop it. Military Quarantine has held for hundreds of thousands of cycles. Traders, merchants, colonists, and Pirates live risky lives along the fringes as the politics from the inner systems fail to see the larger threats beyond their borders. A lone human finds himself far from home with no memories to how he arrived. A failing Trade vessel plays on a desperate gamble, while a malicious parasite searches for a suitable host. ............................................. Author's note: Beast is a story that I wrote a long, long time ago. Some of you might have read it then, back when it was posted on reddit over at r/HFY. It was my first webfiction and made in the spirit of that subreddit's "genre" of humanity being awesome. But, it is also a story that has bothered me a little bit. Just like most new writers tend to do, I made mistakes and errors that feel painful to reread. A Space Opera will be a Space Opera, but I had prose that makes present-me cringe. Still, at the same time, the story is still very much a tale I've never given up on. It was my first adventure into fiction: Beast was a crazy adventure with bodysnatching aliens, galactic war, threats from across the universe... Posting this story here is a way to try and redeem myself a bit. I won't call it a complete rewrite, because it's not, but I have wanted to go through and correct some of the major issues Beast has for a long time and put it somewhere more accessible to read (instead of as posts/comments on reddit) and I figure that now is as good a time as any. Additional corrections you might notice are welcome.

Leave Bad Enough Alone
Something has been amiss in the city’s theaters as of late. The local bards have long done a respectable job of keeping the audiences entertained, weaving high concepts with skillful performances. But lately, a new set of bards, and their illusionist cohorts, have captured the crowd’s attention. Compared to the theater’s usual fare, their work is hackneyed and poorly plotted, with unskilled acting, bad special effects, and unsatisfying resolutions. Worst of all, the audiences like their work more, and these upstarts are far more profitable than the city’s decent bards! Clearly, there must be some dark secret behind the success of these newcomers, and it’s up to the city’s true artists to find out what it is and expose the conspiracy! Or maybe the city’s bards have just become too hopelessly pretentious and derivative. It’s hard to tell. But investigate it they must! Failure is not an option! Victory, or...well, they’ll have to get day jobs or something. Original cover image generated by NightCafé.Master story list here.

An Average American in A High-school Academy Anime
An American versed in narrative tropes and more than mildly acquainted with anime wakes up in a completely different bed than the one he went to bed in. Now he has to scramble to understand where he is, what's going on, and hope to God he isn't in a relationship drama. I don't expect this to be good or well-received, but I have plenty of time this quarantine, so I'll try to get a chapter of 4000-10000 words out every one or two weeks. (haha) Please let me know how it can be improved. I'm an avid reader of fiction, but I've never really fallen down a rabbit hole so hard that I can name all tropes and settings and such by heart. I'm not sure if this will be effective satire, so I preemptively apologize. Inspired by: "My Life is Not a Manga, or maybe..." by EO Tenkey and "The Simulacrum" by Eganthale. Check them out if you want probably better stories than this one.
