《The Assassin Chronicles: Part I》Iri
Advertisement
Iri knelt in front of her sister and the man who was holding her. She tried to ignore the fact that he was only in a pair of boxers and smelled like Danny.
Mac I’m not gonna die that easily, she muttered in Russian.
Yah! Then you shouldn’t go scaring me! Mac snapped in Korean smacking her on the arm half heartedly.
Oi! Iri laughed in Greek. It’s not me you should be hitting. If anything you should be beating up Ni-Chan. It’s his fault that any of this happened in the first place.
The man who’s lap she was sitting in gave Iri an odd look. She took the opportunity to study him. That’s when she realized who he was.
Astinos? She asked.
The man jumped in surprise.
Wait, you know him? Mac asked shrilly.
Jesus Christ Mac could you talk any more high pitched? Iri grumbled rubbing her temples. Amon may have healed my body but he left me with a raging headache. And your voice is so not helping.
Mac shrugged which caused Iri to roll her eyes.
But yes I know him. I know every inch of him. She said the last part in a jumble of words so no one would hear it but some one had heard it.
You know every inch of him? Danny growled in Russian.
Iri’s head snapped to him. Aside from the bandages on his arms, Danny looked the same but different at the same time. Iri stood and went to him. She studied him silently for a long moment.
Are you gonna tell me why you know every inch of him? Danny snapped again in Russian.
You’re different, Iri mused in Russian. What I can’t understand is why you changed so quickly and what it has to do with Astinos. She paused for a moment. You didn’t, did you?

You know he’s an idiot when it comes to thinking with the head between his legs, Niall muttered in Russian.
How could you?!? Iri shouted in Japanese. You knew you were going undercover tomorrow but you still did it! How could you? I trusted you! You are the only one who can do this mission and you threw it all away because you wanted his dick!
Iri please, it’s not like I planned any of this, Danny pleaded reaching for her.
Iri shook him off and threw him against the wall.
I never should have trusted you, she whispered angrily in Russian.
Get your hands off of him, Astinos growled at her.
Iri didn’t move. She couldn’t not without everyone seeing the tears in her eyes. She was strong. She didn’t want anyone to see her cry even if they were family.
Castiel, she heard Mac whisper. The angel made his way to her and after a moment of whispering he vanished without a word.
Let him go, Astinos ordered her.
Don’t! Mac snapped throwing herself between her and Astinos. Astinos don’t provoke her. Please! We can’t risk Koschei coming out again. None of us would survive that.
Iri put the weapon down, her uncle ordered quietly. She hadn’t even realized that she’d pulled one.
Nyet! She snapped trying to keep the tears from her voice.
Suddenly a force barreled into her and knocked her off her feet. Whatever weapon she’d been holding skittered out of reach.
What the fuck are you doing, huh? A new voice demanded from above her.
Iri looked up. Dean was kneeling above her and he looked livid. Whatever control she had snapped at that moment and she curled up on her side and sobbed.

Dominion Expansion (a 4X LitRPG)
Clay is one of the world's top players of 4X games, a genre where the goal is to eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate. He's also one of the only players in the world to so stubbornly stick to the one city strategy, a favorite tactic of his that involves only ever using a single city or planet depending on the game's setting. All that matters to him is winning with his favorite strategy, but earning the respect of his fellow players for taking a sub-optimal strategy to its highest level has always been a nice bonus. And now it is because of his skill and entertaining determination that he has been chosen to represent a higher realm in a strategy game where the fate of Earth and dozens of other worlds are at stake. To the victor goes the spoils, and the spoils include entire worlds and billions of lives. That's how he ends up representing the ascended realm of Hell in a grand "game" between an entire pantheon of godly beings and other higher powers. But while it may just be a game to those overseeing it, it is a genuine war for survival to those participating in it where billions of real lives will go to the victor of whoever wins, and many will die before the game is over. Quick Author's Notes: System inspired by Civilization, Endless Legend, Stellaris, and Crusader Kings 2. Combat mechanics inspired by the Total War series. Slow-paced with many long-term plans. Protagonist has a personality heavily inspired by Ron Swanson. Know who that is and love him? You should like Clay. Know who Ron Swanson is and hate him? You'll probably hate Clay. Planning on writing every single day (turn). Days with important things happening will have the system/game mechanics be the priority of the chapter. Days where there isn't really anything important happening will be more slice-of-life and focused on character interactions. Designed a dice-based randomized map generator to create the world as the story goes on, so I don't even know myself exactly what's going to happen as a lot is dependent on world generation. Tech tree with hundreds of technologies already designed. There is a "harem," but it's not the main focus, the girls won't be cardboard cutouts, and I'm not going to completely forget about any previous women in the relationship whenever a new one comes along. One last thing. The "game" starts off with primitive technology level. The current plan is for the "endgame" tech level to be equivilent to WW2-era technology. After that and war just gets boring until you end up in space. Cover is temporary and made from royalty-free stock images while waiting for the real cover's commission to finish.
