《The Broken House》Breaking Out
Advertisement
The Walkers ate breakfast quietly. Tod rustled his hair since he already finished. "Surely, there must be a reason for today," he said. Gina stroked her husband's hand with her hand. Leo distressingly played with his cereal.
"Son, don't do that, please."
"All right, Dad."
Leo's anxiety was only peaking. Nadine doesn't know that she is in trouble. He rises out of his seat. "Can I be excused?"
"Where are you going," his mom asked.
"To see a friend."
"Leo, you never told us about Nathan. What is he like?"
"He's shy, brave and sensitive. He likes reading, soccer and ice cream. Can I go now, please?"
He parents gave him a funny look. Leo didn't care if they assume he is making it all up. He must reach Nadine before O'Connor does. "Okay, if that's important," his mom finally said. She still feels sketchy about his description of "Nathan".
"Thanks!" He zoomed outside. Leo sped up the street until he bumped into O'Connor again.
"Leo! How funny it is to see you from my last visit."
"Aren't you going to the police?"
"I already did. I also found out that Nathan Barks doesn't exist."
"What do you mean?"
"Stop lying, Leo. I know you're hiding her."
O'Connor grabbed Leo's arm and dragged him to an old apartment building. Leo tries to break free of his tight hold. No luck at all. O'Connor unlocks the door to a flat, opens the door and tosses him inside. He locked the door behind and left Leo inside, shouting, "Hey, let me out!"
Leo attempted to hack the lock. He was unsuccessful, so he searched for any open windows. They were blocked with bricks. Then, he saw a garbage chute. It is disgusting with stenches of mold. Leo didn't have any choices.

He lays a flat piece of cardboard, so his clothes wouldn't smell moldy. Finally, he squeezes himself inside the box. As he was getting comfortable, the rope snapped. The box fell down with Leo in there. "WWOOOAAAAH!" he screamed as it shot downard.
It finished when Leo plopped out of the chute. He landed in a full trash bin. After he got off, Leo brushed himself off. The moldly odor still lingers on him. When the clock rung noon, he rushed to Cedar Street.

Kingmaker
This story is on hiatus/abandonned. People die, then that's all... or at least, it should be that way. There may be anomalies, yes – the occasional hero of old getting reincarnated for some obscure purpose – but who knows what the gods are thinking. If they are thinking at all. If there are gods, to begin with. What would explain such a mistake, then? The hero mark wasn't given to our reborn champion, but to his perfectly normal sister. A prank from these mindless gods, perhaps. Luckily for him, he was done with this hero business and had other plans for his new life, so it's all good... Here is the story of one who isn't meant to stand among heroes, kings and emperors anymore, yet will find himself holding power over them.

Infested
One billion people from one hundred thousand universes have been dropped onto a singular planet five times larger than Earth. In the corner of their eye were three numbers: 1,000,000,000. 15. 10. Nobody could figure out what it meant until fifteen years after the initial transportation, as out of the blue, a message repeated itself in their minds for twenty-four hours. “Only ten can return. The rest will die. There is no time limit,” Following the global message, genocides ran rampant, with established friendships broken, families ripped apart, blood alliances betrayed, and leaders felled in seconds. How? [The Evgnomon] The Beholden; hidden throughout the realm were artefacts: weapons, information, tools from beings and societies of a higher plane. It was up to the humans to scour the land and take them by hook or by crook if they ever wished to go back. Whisked into this world as a mere babe, I suppose it was lucky I didn’t die in the chaos. But as I stare into the rotten, tattered pages of the accursed book laid upon the pedestal in front of me; and the unnerving gaze of our professor trained onto the back of my head silently pressuring me to become the avatar of grotesques unspeakable and undecipherable to the human mind. O, how I wish I did...
