《Aliens.exe》Chapter 68 - The Green Door
Advertisement
“Behind you!" Jake shouted to Green_Turtle_Boy_369. "Get down!"
Jake's fingers mashed the keys on his joypad at an unbelievable rate, and took out the zombie rabbits who were creeping up on Green_Turtle_Boy_369.
"Awesome," came the appreciative message through his headset. "You saved me."
Jake_45 beamed, and bounced his way along one of the many corridors in the Tower of Power, the building where he worked as the Crawkling Leader of War, in name if not in soul.
Green_Turtle_Boy_369 followed him, bouncing too. It was not only a fun thing to do but a habit they had formed to make them less susceptible to snipers. He stopped behind Jake_45 where he had come to a halt.
"What is it?" he asked.
Jakes character was stood facing a huge green door. It was trying to open it, but to no avail. He jumped, and swung his axe. Nothing happened.
"I can't get in this door. That's weird. I get an error message saying Access Prohibited."
"That is strange. It's probably rubbish though, let's carry on," said Green_Turtle_Boy_369 hurriedly and started to walk away.
Jake didn't follow.
"No, let's try and get in. It could contain anything, a special storyline. What if this in this room there are actual normal zombies to shoot!
“There isn’t, I’ve been in there before. Nothing there.”
“There must be, it’s locked! How did you get in?”
“I can’t remember. Come on, they’re getting away!”
“Fine! But I’ll get in, you know how I don't leave anything unfinished in any computer game."
It was true, and Green_Turtle_Boy_369 knew it. But this was one door that he didn't want Jake to be messing around.
"Come on!" he said. "There's no point hanging around. It's just an empty storeroom."

He heard a clunking in his ears. "Jake? What's going on." There was no answer.
A few rooms down the corridor, Jake had thrown his headset to the floor and was taking the drastic action of walking to see something in real life. The reason for this was that he was 99% sure that the door which existed in Lapine Death Corps didn't exist in real life. That was strange for a game which was an exact replica of the town that he was living in.
Ten minutes later, Jake found that he was right, and Jake knew that you didn't get glitches like that in such a well-designed computer game. This was a delightful little mystery that he was going to get his teeth into.
Whilst Jake was away, Green_Turtle_Boy_369 was chatting urgently on the phone.
"Eric. He's found the hidden door. Jake will never let this go."
There was a curse and the sound of the phone slamming to the desk.

Tempest Rogue
This story follows Auron, a man who has been plagued with vivid nightmares his entire life. While running away from a beating, a splitting headache causes him to fall to his knees. Once again his nightmares bleed into reality. The next "episode" he has brings him from the scene of his nightmare, to a posionous swamp. To make matters worse his memories from earth are fading, and these nightmares that plagued his childhood, filled with darkness and a red coocoon, are back and worse than ever. As he clings to the only memories he has left, he is forced to fight through a world of brutal blood thirsty monsters, dungeons, and a complex magic system governed by an ancient agreement. First time writing any sort of story. Everything is still a work in progress. As I improve on my writing I will go back and edit parts. Early chapters are subject to change as I grow my ability. I am going to try my best to write this world and improve as I go. My goal is to make my dream come to life through the medium of text. This is why I wanted to post it here. Feel free to comment, and bring constructive criticism. Hope you enjoy! More info (Spoiler warning): only read if you are picky, read a lot, and want to waste no time with a story you may not want read. This book is a litrpg. This means it contains stat tables, and other game elements. (Which you may gloss over if you would like) It is written in a fantasy world, in the style of a progression fantasy. The main character grows in power as the story plays out. My characters are written to my best ability, but you may find them immature. The MC has to adjust to fighting, and killing which he struggles with for a while. His partner is a magical salamander who is a friend and mentor. The world building, monsters, and descriptions are also low tier. (I am working hard to change that!) If you are okay reading something by someone who is just getting started then welcome! I am doing my best, and incrementally improving as I go.

City of Roses
Jo Maguire, a highly strung, underemployed telemarketer, meets Ysabel, a princess of unspecified pedigree, and unexpectedly becomes her guardian and caretaker. Now Jo must make a place for herself among Ysabel's decidedly unusual family and friends—which calls for a bit more sword-play than most of us are used to—in a city where sinister high-rise condos are fought by a sprawling tea-house built out of scrap lumber, where ancient sea-gods retire to close-in Southeast apartments with lovely views, where duels take place in supermarkets, and the Devil keeps a morgue in an abandoned big-box store.
