《Boundless [COMPLETE]》III
Advertisement
The ride to the Brown's mansion was 10 minutes away from Ava's penthouse. I always wondered why Ava did not just live with her parents, knowing that their estate can probably accommodate 20 people along with their great great relatives. However, Ava did once mention that moving out can grant her more freedom and bring her more happiness and I'm glad she decided to follow her dreams.
Ava finally entered the gate and parked her car before getting out and waiting for me to follow. We weren't late, but we also weren't the first people to arrive so I rounded a corner to go say my greetings to Mr and Mrs Brown before Ava pulled me with her to meet more people. At first, I felt tense and awkward but I still tried to carry on a conversation every now and then. The more I did it, the easier it got to the point where I started having carefree talks with the other guests. It felt good to be there- for once, I felt content and unrestrained.
An hour into the party, we were all sat in the dining table, waiting for the final group of guests to arrive. I was busy talking to Miss Roseanne-a nice lady in her 40's who kept saying I reminded her of her niece- when the desired people finally walked in.
Apparently, they were the Brown's newest business partners and they were already very friendly with each other that the Brown's did not waste any time to pronounce their newly found friendship with them. I was busy listening to miss Roseanne gush about my doppelgänger when I heard the one voice I had only heard in my dreams for the past 3 years.
"It's a pleasure to start this project with you, Mr Brown," he said. I felt the world stop around me and my eyes involuntarily rose up to meet his enchanting green ones which I was never able to wipe out from my memories. I could feel Ava squeeze my hand from beside me to provide me with support. I felt the memories that I'd been trying to keep locked away in a cage slowly start to waver their way into my head and I couldn't stop the gasp from escaping my throat. His eyes showed shock for a millisecond before reverting back to the emotionless empty void that I had once gotten accustomed to. Without exchanging any words, I excused myself and pushed my chair back before standing up and walking to the bathroom.

In that moment, all the walls I'd spent my energy into building had suddenly crumbled down right before my eyes. I bit back a sob as I put my weight on the sink. What was supposed to be a day to move on happened to be the day he was brought back to my life and I knew I was too much of a coward to face him again.

MANTIS: On Hiatus
Two young adults who were childhood friends are killed amidst a pandemic worse than our own. After many years apart, Rihelah was on her way to see Michael, hoping to rekindle their friendship on the day they would both lose their lives. The pair are unwittingly selected to represent Earth in a test set forth by godlike beings who are intrigued that our world gave rise to complex life without having been intentionally seeded by their kind. Michael and Rihelah are reincarnated as predatory insects upon a distant planet called Edon. Elves, Dwarves, Dragons and their kin, Goblins, Ogres, Humans, Lizardfolk, Orcs, and sapient arthropods known as Enkelyn all inhabit this beautiful world touched by magic. The tiny mantids must survive terrified and very much alone upon arrival, while neither is aware that the other has also been reincarnated upon the same island. Naked in their new chitinous exoskeletons, they must now brave the terrors of an alien world's food chain. Each will benefit from their years of experience on Earth, but they must somehow find a balance between old lives and new. Moderate mindsets and peaceful values from a mostly safe and privileged life on Earth must now contend and somehow coexist with the strange physiology of a new and unfamiliar body as well as the violent aggressiveness of a predator's mind. To top things off, the pair are about to find themselves struggling with their inner turmoil while swept up by terrible conflicts they know nothing about. Both endure the hardships of their new lives while attempting to understand and make proper use of a mysterious and terse video-game-like System that pops status notifications into their vision from time to time, but initially has no useful interface. Some of the options they are presented with sound enticing, but as with everything else in life, each choice has benefits and drawbacks... Author's Note: This story makes many changes to the original version, and readers of Mantid will find that many things in Mantis are new and different; especially after the first few chapters. I've learned a ton from writing like a madman, and also from the RR community. I appreciate you guys! :)

Criminal Lord
Terry Isenburg, the greatest assassin who killed thousands of powerful officials and even led an army of people to reform the world had finally killed his final target after many years of suffering and effort. Changing the world was in sight. Until he was betrayed... Although, even in the abyss of death, two choices were placed before Terry. Enter the Trial or Hell? Watch how the man who nearly took over the world now attempts to take over a world of sword, monster, magic, and one hella strong tarantula... I made this story because I always wanted a dark fantasy isekai with a hella fine backstory rather than an idiot being run over as well as having sustainable, epic scenes with a badass main character. All of which I believe my story has. (Although I'm bad at managing levels and experience and I have little imagery since I hate imagery) One other thing, the first volume may be kinda boring/repetitive but I can guarantee loads of badass action in volume 2 so please stick around. (I would also appreciate the views) If you like or dislike the story, please write a comment or review about this story to help me improve, but please don't hate on the story without explaining why. I also hope that you readers share the story to give me more support. Thanks and I hope you enjoy the story. [The cover is something I made poorly but it represents something in chapter 9-10]
