Needle: Coiny? Where are you...
Firey: Couldn't Coiny be dead? I mean, that could be why he isn't back yet.
Cake: But wouldn't he have been recovered like the other dead contestants by now?
Firey: Hm. You're right.
Pin: Hey, Announcer. Do you know where Coiny went?
Announcer: If he's missing, that's your problem.
Pin: But YOU had him!
Announcer: I would not steal a contestant from you, Pin. You should know better than that.
Pin: But... ugh. *Pin leaves.*
Clock: Any luck?
Pin: Nope... I guess he's gone for good.
Eggy: Don't think like that...
*Meanwhile, with Flower and Lightning*
Lightning: Who do you think will get out?
Flower: Well, um, I... uh... Pencil?
Lightning: Hm... yeah. Sure. *Lightning leaves*
Fanny: I hate how awkward you are!
Flower: Geez, no need to be like that...
Snowball: Come on team, let's just go to the elimination...
*Cake at stake!*
Announcer: Welcome to your first elimination, Iance. We got 10 votes. Your prize for staying in is a hat.
Fanny: I hate hats!
Announcer: The first ones safe are Bubble, Ruby, Flower, Fanny, Match.
Bubble: Yoy!
Flower: Yeah..
Match: Yeah! Wait, Pencil isn't safe yet...
Pencil: Matchy, I'll be fine!
Announcer: Are you sure about that? Lightning is next safe, with 1 vote!
Lightning: Hehe... this is going perfectly...
Ruby: Oh no! Pencil! What if you get eliminated?!
Pencil: Ruby, calm down. I won't.
Snowball: Oh, great. I'm in the bottom two.
Pencil: Announcer, just tell us the results already.
Announcer: Okay. *drumroll* Snowball got 4 votes, while Pencil got 5, so Pencil is eliminated. *Snowball is given a hat*
Snowball: I just knew I would be safe. Welp, bye Pencil.
Pencil: Are you kidding me!? We lose once, and I'm eliminated!?
Flower: Well, you were kinda bossy...
Pencil: Whatever, it's not like my team wanted me anyways.
Match: Pencil, no-
Pencil: Bye. *Pencil disappears*
Lightning: Okay, elimination's over, lets leave now... *iance leaves*
Ruby: I can't beleive Pencil got out! And not... Snowball.
Bubble: Yeah. :(
Match: Guys! Guys, it's going to be ok. We may have lost Pencil, but we're still here!
Bubble: Yeah! We can doio this!
*Firey runs up to Snowball* Firey: Snowball, have you seen Coiny? He's gone missing.
Snowball: Nope. I wouldn't know where he is anyways, we don't really talk anymore. *Snowball leaves*
Nickel: Wow, BEEPers, we just got into the final 52!
Rocky: Bleh!
Balloony: Wait, final 52? Only 11 people have been eliminated so far...?
Nickel: Well, Coiny is missing, so we can just forget about him.
Leafy: Hey! How would you like it if we just forgot about you? Just count you out, like you're worthless?
Nickel: Actually, I'm worth 5 cents. Also, whatever...
Announcer: Everyone, it's time for challenge 12.
Pen: Which is???
Announcer: ...
Remote: Which is?-
Announcer: The 12th challenge is to stack your team's blocks to reach the coin you guys collected last challenge, on a pole. The last team to not have collected their coin loses. G-
Coiny: Ahhh! Someone help! I'm stuck to this pole!!!
Pin: Coiny!?
Announcer: Shush. Go.
*ABNTT POV* Golf Ball: So, team, what's the plan?
Robot Flower" Stacking seems too complicated for me, I'm bailing out of this.
8-Ball: I can't even do anything to help in the first place, so I'm going too.
Blocky: Wait, guys! I have an idea, check this out! *Blocky grabs onto the pole*
Basketball: What are you doing?
Blocky: I'm climbing the tower, so we can, y'know, win?
TV: Isn't this cheating?
Tennis Ball: They never said anything against it, I don't think.
TV: Oh.

*Blocky grabs the coin* Blocky: Got it!
Basketball: Oh, that's great!
Announcer: That was fast. A Better Name Than That is safe, at first. Your prize is a pair of boxing gloves.
*Blocky puts them on* These are sweet!
Golf Ball: Wait, if that's our prize... Then the next challenge would have to be-
*iance POV* *Flower places a block* Come on guys, let's climb this tower!
Ruby: I don't know... this looks exhausting.
Fanny: I hate climbing!
Match: Fine. If it means, like, none of our alliance gets eliminated, sure.
Bubble: Hoi, Match. It doesn't seem loik you really cared about Pencil getting eliminated. What's up with that?
Match: Eh, Pencil was just too bossy. I mean, I wouldn't want to follow in her footsteps. She's my friend, but, I just don't have the time to worry about her.
Bubble: Oh... okoiy.
Snowball: Watch this, nerds. *Snowball climbs on top of the small tower* Time to jump!
*Snowball jumps as high as he possibly can, but he isn't even close to grabbing the coin, and he just facepalms on the ground.* Snowball: OW
Ruby: What did you even expect from that jump? Now come on, get up and keep stacking, boy!
Snowball: Eugh... Fine.
*Team Ice Cube POV* Bomby: Ok, what's the plan?
Donut: I don't have anything.
Barf Bag: I have one idea...
Donut: What is it?
Barf Bag: Hey, Spongy... do you mind being used as a trampoline?
Spongy: I don't mind, just don't be too harsh...
Barf Bag: Ok! Gelatin, go!
Gelatin: I'm on it! *Gelatin jumps on Spongy, then gets propelled to the air, and grabs the coin*
Bracelety: Yeah, Team Ice Cube, you got this!
Gelatin: Got it.
Announcer: Team Ice Cube is safe. At second place.
Bomby: Second... Not too bad!
Bracelety: Yeah! I love second place!
*Free Food POV* Eraser: Hey, guys, bring me some more blocks!
Bell: On it! *Bell gets some blocks, and hands them to Eraser*
Eraser: Thanks, Bell! *Eraser puts the blocks down, and starts climbing them.*
Marker: You know there's a faster way, right? We have a ladder right here.
Foldy: But it's all broken up... I don't feel like building that...
Marker: Fair point.
Puffball: Ok, do you have that coin yet?
Eraser: I just got it!
Yellow Face: YAAAAAAAA
*Eraser trips* Eraser: Woah! I'm gonna fall!
Stapy: I got you!
*Eraser falls from his stack, and Stapy barely catches him.*
Eraser: Thanks, man!
Stapy: No problem! By the way, do you have the coin?
Eraser: I have it... right... here? Where did it go?!
Yellow Face: Oh no! When Eraser fell, he must've lost the coin! Now, we need to find it!
Bell: That's just grand.
*Pen walks up to Free Food* Pen: Hey, guys, are you using this ladder?
Eraser: No. You can use it, though.
Pen: Thanks, buddy! *Pen grabs the ladder and leaves*
*Bleh POV* Dora: DADADADAAD (What are we doing, team? Get climbing!
Saw: Fine. *Saw starts grabbing blocks and climbs them.*
Gaty: Good job, Saw! Just be careful... the higher you go, the slipperier it gets.
Saw: S-Slipperier?! *Saw tries climbing higher, but she slips and falls*
Lollipop: I told you guys, this is a lost cause! Our blocks are just so... unstable! Everyone else is doing fine, but for some reason, we just don't have a grasp.
Taco: Who could've caused this?
*Blocky laughs in the background*
Gaty: Ok, I'm tired of sitting around. Even though our team is very small, we can still get through this! We just need to look at it from a different angle.

Dora: DADADADAD (A different angle, you say?)
*Teardrop looks at Dora, and they both know what to do.*
Taco: What are you two doing?
*Teardrop and Dora throw the deformed blocks into a pile. They start to add more blocks on a higher layer than the ones previously thrown.*
Lollipop: Hey... this could work!
*BEEP POV* Cloudy: Leafy, what are we doing? We're just sitting around!
Leafy: Slow and steady wins the race, friend.
Balloony: Look, I'm not losing again. *Balloony jumps on the stack, only to find out it's unstable* Woah!
*The stack falls over.*
Leafy: Balloony! Our stack just fell over! What do you have to say for yourself!
Balloony: Nothing.
Rocky: Mhm!
Woody: Wocky! We can use him!
Cloudy: Rocky? How would he be of any help?
Rocky: Bleh! *Rocky vomits a block*
BEEP: Ohhh.
Woody: Wuh, where's Nickel?
*Death P.A.C.T. POV* Pen: Look what I got! *Pen pulls out the ladder.*
Tree: Oh, wow. A ladder.
Liy: Haha! Now we can win this challenge without doing any work!
Black Hole: Ok, but the ladder is in pieces. Someone's going to need to build it.
Remote: I can build it. *Remote runs to the ladder set, and starts to build at an astonishing pace.*
Bottle: Wow, you're fast!
Tree: How are you so fast?
Liy: I charged her batteries yesterday. It wasn't easy...
Black Hole: Wait a second. If you charged her batteries yourself, then why was Remote walking yesterday?
Liy: I gave her the speakers batteries!
Tree: Huh. Wouldn't be the first time.
Remote: I'm done! *Remote shows off the ladder*
Bottle: Yay! Time to climb!
Pillow: Wait. shouldn't someone... less breakable climb?
Pen: Like me?
*Pillow pushes Bottle aside* Pillow: Yeah. Sorry Bottle, but Pen is climbing. I'm just doing this to keep you safe.
Bottle: Oh. okay. :(
*Pen climbs up the ladder* Pen: Got it!
Announcer: Death P.A.C.T. is safe!
*The Losers POV* Pin: Don't worry, Coiny, we'll get you off of there!
Firey: Yeah!
Coiny: If you are, you better hurry! Teams are finishing left and right!
Eggy: Not that many teams are even finished yet.
Cake: Come on, guys, keep stacking! I can almost touch Coiny!
Clock: Ugh... climbing and stacking is kind of hard when you have no arms!
Needle: Your loss.
Clock: Ugh!?-
Eggy: You guys have clearly stacked enough. One of you could just grab him already.
Pin: Wait a second... Really?
Eggy: Uh, yeah?
*Pin climbs up and grabs Coiny* Pin: I got you?
Coiny: Oh... hey Pin!
Announcer: The Losers are safe!
Clock: Can we... y'know.... keep the coin this time?
Announcer: Yes.
Firey: Yay! You're back for good, Coiny!
Cake: We missed you!
Coiny: Aw, thanks, guys.
*iance POV* Ruby: We're almost there!
Lightning: Um... the stack seems a little unstable...
Fanny: Oh no, what do we do? Fix it! You can fly, so go fix it!
Bubble: Yeah, Lightning, you got this!
Lightning: Okay! *Lightning flys towards Ruby's stack*
Snowball: I don't think that thing will last much longer!
Ruby: Oh no! I'm falling! *Ruby's stack starts to fall over*
Lightning: Don't worry, Ruby! I've got you! *Lightning catches Ruby*
Ruby: Thanks, I guess. I'm safe, be our team isn't! Our stack fell over!
Flower: I mean... couldn't Lightning just fly you to the top? And you just grab the key?
Ruby: Oh yeah... I guess I could do that. *Ruby grabs the key*
Snowball: See Ruby, think smarter, not harder.
Fanny: Yeah!
Announcer: Iance is safe.
Match: Phew. That could've gone, like, a lot worse.
*BEEP POV* Balloony: Alright little one, start barfing blocks!
Rocky: Bleh! *Rocky barfs out a block*
Cloudy: Just keep going, Rocky!
Leafy: Yeah yeah yeah, you got this Rocky!
Rocky: Bl- ugh.
Leafy: Huh? What's wrong?
Balloony: I think he got tired out...
Rocky: Mmmm...
Cloudy: Ah... Whatever. *Cloudy flies and grabs the key*
Leafy: It was as simple as that?
Woody: Wahoo!
Announcer: BEEP is safe!
Rocky: Yay!
*The rest of BEEP gasps*
Rocky: ...Bleh?
Announcer: Now it's down to Free Food, and Bleh.
Rocky: Bleh!
*Free Food POV* Yellow Face: Good thing I have my metal detector magnet! We can spot the coin from there!
Foldy: The coin is made out of copper. That isn't metal.
Yellow Face: OH.
*Nickel sticks to the metal detector magnet* Nickel: Hey, let me go!
Puffball: Oh, Nickel. Long time no see. Have you seen our coin anywhere?
Nickel: Nope. If I had to guess... it would be under the grass somewhere. Trust me... I've got lost there too.
Bell: Well, we can't just cut the grass, can we?
Yellow Face: Good thing I have my lawnmower mini! Buy now for only 1200.12-
Eraser: Yellow Face, just... start looking for it. I think we all should do that.
Marker: Good thing I can toss the dirt! *Marker tosses the dirt all over*
Stapy: Isn't this creating a bigger mess?
Marker: But it's fun :(
Stapy: You do you, I guess.
Eraser: Ok, Puffball, Bell. Wanna help me search?
Bell: Okay, sure. What about you, Puffy?
Puffball: Don't-... fine.
Eraser: Wait... Bell. I have an idea. What if I climb your string to get a better view?
Bell: Ugh... Fine. Just don't go too high.
Eraser: Got it! *Eraser climbs on Bell*
Puffball: Okay, let's go.
*Bleh POV* Lollipop: Okay... building is going... surprisingly slow... but good so far!
Taco: Yeah! Hand me some more of those, TD!
*Teardrop gives Taco some of her blocks*
Gaty: How's building going, Dora?
Dora: DADADA (Yeah, it's going fine... but I would REALLY appreciate it if you would help...)
Gaty: Okay. I'm going to take a nap now!
Dora: DADADADAD (I'm going to punch you in a second.)
Saw: Wait a minute... Is everyone else finished already!?
Taco: Huh. Looks like it.
Lollipop: Alright. We better get a game on, or else we're doomed.
*Free Food POV- Foldy and Yellow Face* Foldy: Ah... I don't see the coin anywhere...
Yellow Face: We should just keep searching! I've learned that the best things in life take time to find.
Foldy: What is that supposed to mean?
Yellow Face: I never just found my warehouse. I had to earn it. I had to dedicate so much of my time to getting that warehouse, and when I found it finally, I was the happiest guy in the world!
Foldy: Wow... that's kind of motivating! And look, over there! Stapy and Marker!
Stapy: Hey Foldy, any luck?
Foldy: Nope. And since you're asking me, you don't have it either?
Marker: Nope! But I did find this green slither of dirt!
Stapy: Marker, that's Grassy's hair.
Marker: Oh! Okay.
*Bleh POV- Saw and Gaty* Gaty: Oh Saw, look! We got our own point of view!
Saw: Aren't you too tired to be doing 4th wall breaks?
Gaty: Oh... yeah.
Saw: Go to sleep.
Gaty: Okay! *Gaty goes to sleep*
*Free Food POV- Bell, Eraser, Puffball* Bell: Wait, guys! I think I see something!
Eraser: What? A ravine?
Puffball: Not just any ravine, this ravine has our coin!
Eraser: How did the coin even go this far anyways?
Bell: That doesn't matter, just go get it!
Eraser: Fine. *Eraser gets off Bell, and approaches the coin*
Puffball: Just grab it already?
Eraser: Is that... a pentagon on the coin...?
Bell: Oh great, not this again...
Puffball: Just take the stupid coin already...!
*Bleh POV* Lollipop: Taco, what are you doing? The stack is tall enough, just grab the coin!
Taco: It's too tall for me! I'm barely out of reach!
Dora: DADADAD (Why did they let that flavored munchkin even climb it if she couldn't reach it...)
Gaty: Someone else should climb...
Dora: (You're one to talk.)
*Teardrop starts to walk up the tower and pushes Taco off*
Lollipop: Woah, Droppy, what are you doing?!
*Free Food POV* Eraser: I got it...!
*Teardrop grabs it*
Eraser: Wait...aren't we safe..?
Bell: We're a mile away from the announcer...
Puffball: Oh.
Announcer: BLEH is safe at 7th! So Free Food is up for elimination!
Taco: Sweet.
Saw: That was a close one, good job TD!
*TD is angered at Saw.*
Foldy: Aw sheets of paper. We're done for!
Yellow Face: We tried our best, guys!
Marker: Yeah...
*Eraser, Bell, and Puffball return* Puffball: Did we lose?
Marker: Yep.

Soul Vessel Psyche
If it’s not obvious from the Title this is yet another reincarnation story. The story will be told from the perspective of one Novid Ollo; half-breed son of the Matriarch of the Knora Race and twin brother to Ovis Ollo the future Matriarch of the Vnora sub-Race.The world of Orro that Novid is born into has been ravaged by the demons from the demon world. The Demons were accidentally lead to Orro 500 years earlier by a conflagration of magic from feuding countries of the Vern Race; opening a doorway between the worlds which released hordes of Demons into Orro.The Dvern and the Svern are the 2 Subspecies of the Vern Race responsible for this calamity and were the first victims of the Demon hordes. The next to fall victim were the proud Knora of the North. The ice giants fought the Demon hordes to stalemate and seemed poised to prevail until the dragon rulers of the Demon Race joined the fight. While the Dvern and the Svern are essentially extinct the Knora managed to save 17 females and 55 males.How Novid Ollo is born as half Svern is also how he died in the previous life, and why he is both pitied and hated by his race and others. There are no Gods to offer special talents and Favours, there is no path to Godly Power and everyone is born with exactly the same potential. Novid Ollo will have to carry the weight of the sins of his father like the others who’s Souls were ripped from their lives on Earth and brought to this unforgiving Realm of Magic; filled with Monsters and Demons.What happens to Novid Ollo is entirely dependent on the extent of the effort he puts into preparations for when whimsical opportunity shines its light on him. Fortunately Novid Ollo didn’t come to Orro alone?15 million? other Human Souls were ripped from their lives on Earth at the same time as Novid and reborn on Orro to serve as the last wave of cannon fodder in the unending war against the hordes of Demons.Inspired by; Mushoku Tensei, Slime Tensei, Daybreak on Hyperion. As usual I unashamedly draw some elements from my favourite light novels in writing this Original Fiction.I thought I’d try writing something for the?Reincarnation? genre.?Written in South African English which means closer to the British Standard.?Warning: Mature Content ?Violence, Language and Adult Themes ?List of My Novels:?Realm Eternal??Crystal Guardian ??Exiled Nomads of the Galaxy??Soul Vessel Psyche?

I'm not evil, trust
Lonnie Winters was one of the lucky ones to become evolvers. Becoming a type of warrior that has a spirit beast, he lives his life on the edge of a scale. Trying to balance between living a normal life and making a statement that puts him as the face of evolvers. (This is an apocalypse story and those used to reading my unfinished stories. Then this is similarly a slow roasted story. This is also just second draft. Sorry for the mistakes, I started this when I was in the hospital for my knee and hip surgery.)

Villain as a Friend
What if your friend says that he wants to be a villain? Will you prevent your friend from falling into the circle of evil, or encourage him to do that? "I want to be a villain." My friend who has been accompanying me every day in my life said that. Only a few days after the launching of Realm Domination, a new VRMMORPG. At first, I thought he said that because he wanted to do role-playing in the game. But I didn't think he would truly be one of them. Become a real villain. He did some crimes like burning the village, murdering the whole cities, raping the women inside the elf forest, and do some massive magic sacrifice that needs mass murdering. Even if it's only in the game, I become to know my friend's true face is. I let him be for now because it's still inside a game. But it turned out to be worse than I thought.

So What If I'm Trash? Who Needs Cultivation?!
Qing Shan Long. They say he isn't human. An escaped experiment from some government facility, a reincarnation of a saint, a freakish superhuman. Whatever he was one thing was clear. Be it Music, Martial Arts, Science, whatever he does he excels. He was a whimsical man. A great man. A man who craving for knowledge and excitement knows no bounds, whose collection of books and personal library would even make Alexander the Great green with envy. He donated to all manners of charities and funded many projects for helping the poor and disabled. A self made man who single handedly founded one of the largest corporations in the world, Wen Qu Technologies, whose influences reach from vast fields of expertise. From objects of war such as the newest aircrafts, droids, and body armor; to life saving medicine and vaccines; to even the mundane such as video games and the fast food industry. A legendary example of determination and hard work. He was in his car being driven to a business meeting to disclose a deal that would help ensure the country could have access to clean energy and help reduce the pollution that has been plaguing his homeland for the past millenia when he was assassinated and woke up in a strange new world. How will Qing Shan deal with his new environment where the strong suppresses the weak? From the top of the world he suddenly finds himself free falling to rock bottom. Unable to cultivate, a weak body, and all but disowned by his family. (For those who read comics and watch cartoons, imagine him as being Tony Stark, Richard Reeds, Jimmy Neutron, etc level of 'Genius'. ) My own spin on some familar tropes. Another reincarnation into another world story. The MC will take over the body of someone with a trash body that can't cultivate and will be hated and neglected by his family. Pretty typical so far right? Except there won't be some amazing miracle to heal our MC, there isn't some magical grandpa to teach him some OP thing which only his trash body can use, there isn't a hidden op bloodline, and he is not from a super amazing assassin clan or genius doctor. He isn't the chosen one, he's just a guy trying his best to make something with a crap situation. First attempt at a wuxia type story! I like playing with common tropes, maybe adding a twist, to playing it straight as a classic. I have absolutely no idea where this is going to take me but please do give your input and I'll do my best so that everyone has a say in where our journey will go. I'll admit the only knowledge I have of chinese history and ancient society is from reading light novels translated to english and some old dramas, so if I make some social passe just take it as because this is another world, not exactly an AU where magic and stuff actually exist. I'm also not actually Chinese and will basically using google to help me with names and other such, if I make a mistake please let me know! (Even if you don't like the story or couldn't bare to get past chapter 1 please leave a comment so I can find out where to improve, thank you!)
