《Trust Me》Chapter 8.
Advertisement
Today I woke up from the nightmares as usual. It was still 4 am so I had some time to take a walk.
It was still dark outside, but I always found an odd peacefulness in the dark.
The slight breeze hit me as soon as I exited my trailer so I zipped my jacket and put my hands in my pockets and I decided to roam in the dark roads of Hungary.
I decided to get back as soon as I saw the sun rising. It was 6 o'clock so I needed to start getting ready.
As soon as I walked into the parking lot I heard a bark. I furrowed my brows in confusion as I didn't know we had a dog. I decided to follow the way the bark came from, and then I see this black and white American Akita, he was so fluffy and big that he looked like a bear. I got closer to him and let him sniff me and then he started licking me which made me laugh.
"Hello beautiful, who are you ?" I say to the dog in a puppy voice while getting down to his level and patting his head. He replied by licking me again.
"Kal" I hear someone shouting. The dog stopped licking me and turned back to face his owner, as did I.
His owner was no one else but Henry.
He let out a breath of relief as soon as he saw the dog.
"Seems he already found my replacement" he sighed jokingly as he petted him.
I chuckled and stood up to face him.
"What can I say? Dogs love me" I exclaimed proudly of myself.
"I can tell why" Henry replied with a wide grin.
He caught me off guard, I really didn't know what to reply to this, so I just smiled instead.

"So is Kal his name then? Like Kal-El? I ask him remembering that it was superman's name back in Krypton.
"Yeah, exactly. So you've watched man of steel ?" He was now paying full attention to me.
"Unfortunately" I said almost under my breath and looking a down hoping he didn't hear.
But he did.
"Unfortunately?" He was furrowing his brows in confusion.
"All I'm saying is that Tony would be a better name" I folded my arms as I chuckled.
"Tony? As in Tony Stark ?" He raised an eyebrow getting my hint easily.
I nodded in agreement.
"So you're a Marvel fan, my mortal enemy" he put his hands in his waist.
"I'm not an enemy if there's nothing to compete with to start with" I paused for a minute "cause nothing compares to Marvel's greatness" I continued, enjoying myself.
"Ohh, we're so having this conversation after filming is done" he was pointing his finger in my face jokingly.
"Its on" I say mimicking his movements.
He walked me to my trailer to get my camera and then we silently walked to the studio where we waved goodbye for now.
Since I couldn't see Freya nor Anya on the set I decided to put my earphones on and get to work as usual.
I was lost deep in the music when someone tapped on my shoulder almost scaring me.
I turn around and I gasped. I saw a hunchback girl with raven hair reaching barely her shoulders, a kind of deformed face, and purple contacts.
She started laughing. "It's Anya you dick", she couldn't stop laughing.
I rolled my eyes at her "I was deep in the zone, you scared me you dick" I tried to mimic her tone. And then we just burst out laughing.
I was the one to first stop laughing. "Wait, I thought you started shooting tomorrow?" I asked as I remembered the talk we had yesterday.

She nodded her head in agreement "I do, but we had to practice the makeup before my big debut I also really wanted to scare you " she was still laughing. I rolled my eyes and laughed at her.
"Okay, I'm going to take this all off and come back to keep you company, deal ?"
I just nodded my head in agreement.
This time I took my earphones off in case Anya wanted to scare me again, and got back to work. They were shooting the fighting scene between Geralt and Renfri, which took quite some time as They had to switch back and front from the stunt double to the actress.
I could hear Anya behind me huffing in displeasure.
She comes next to me "ughh Lucy, I really hope she fucks off after this" she sounded frustrated.
"Why do you hate her so much? She seems alright, she is focused on work and Henry seems to be in good terms with her" I looked at Anya clearly confused.
"No" she cut me off "You're focused at work and you're not a selfish prick, you didn't come in and start complaining about everything. And about the Henry thing, I don't know, I feel something fishy going on there . " she huffed again as she glared at Lucy.
I furrowed my brows in confusion letting her know that I didn't understand what she said. She got my hint "all I'm saying is that I don't think Henry really wanted her here, but he has to accept her and work with her because he is a true professional" was all she replied to me.
I took her words into consideration as I saw Henry on set starring back at me with pain in his eyes.

Everyone knows how the general story is supposed to go. A man, unwittingly going about his normal and ordinary life, is suddenly whisked off to a game style fantasy world where he is expected to become the unwavering hero of the realm. That is until the summoned hero throws a Hail Mary and gets himself transported to a tutorial world before the summoning can be completed. Add in a clumsy goddess and a broken planet and that is just where our story begins... Greetings all, thanks for taking the time to read this. This is my first story here on RRL and it's becomming one of the things I look forward to working on each day. As of June 2020, the story description has been updated (now that the characters have told me what was actually going on this author thought it prudent to update this) . Updates will be sporatic as i have time to juggle real life with writing. You the readers have become an integral part of the story helping to decide how things will progress, so enjoy the story and please leave a review or rating so this author can continue to improve the story. New chapters coming soon with edits to existing ones in process As a side note, I wish I could add a science tag to this. While this is still fiction, I have been incorporating real life scientific theories and explanations for how things could be *plausibly* explained. (No, I will not lecture on these points, but they are added to author notes) ~badw0lf

Rooms of the Desolate
Rooms of the Desolate is a collection of short stories designed to guide the reader through the many rooms and mysteries of the bleak and greyscale labyrinth of the Desolate. The first entry, "The Forever Tower" follows an unnamed wanderer climbing an endless, colourless tower; the only world they have ever known. As they slowly ascend alongside the masses, they consider the nature of their world and look to the corridors as temptation beckons. The second entry, "Production Line", follows an engineer in a boundless factory, who encounters a product that does not wish to bow to the overseers and makes them question their belief in the truth and duties they were made to believe. Content guidelines: Current entries do not include explicit profanity, but future entries may do so, hence the presence of that tag. Some entries do include gore and violence, though not currently to particularly extreme degrees. The Desolate is exactly that: a desolate world; as such, it is bleak, downtrodden, and may deal with mental struggles. Cover art credit: Adam Borkowski on Pexels.
