《YOUTH ⇢ BENNY WEIR》ten

"Tell grandma to answer the phone!" Benny said, still struggling.
"Stay with me, Benny." Ethan said, throwing him into the backseat.
Sophia rushed for the front sat but Ethan took hold of it and the same time. The two looked at each-other. "It's too long to explain now but I'd really prefer to sit with Sarah." Sophia smiled, trying to convince her brother to get into the backseat.
Ethan sighed and stared at her. She groaned. "Really? I'm taking orders from my brother now?!" She stomped to the back seat and sat inside, having to rest Benny's head on her thighs so the two could fit in.
"Where's Sarah?" Sophia asked.
Ethan paused and looked behind him and saw Sarah crouching down in pain. He tried to convince her to come with them, but she ordered them to leave, so that's what Ethan did.
"We're leaving her?!" Sophia yelled as the car drove off.
"She looked like she didn't want to be argued with." He responded, not taking his eyes off where he was going, but carried on speaking. "Jesse must be taking the nest of souls to wherever his followers are buried."
"And where's that?" Sophia asked.
"Yep, found love at the snack bar my friend." Benny sighed, trying to sit himself up. "Hah - ow!" He failed and fell back onto Sophia, who was getting annoyed.
"Benny! The prophecy says... um... the barren orchard bares the devil's fruit. Okay, the barren orchard, er... Benny?" Ethan asked, unsurely.
"Give her my address: 53 Orchard Park... any time!" He replied.
Sophia rolled her eyes.
"The tree from my visions... I know that tree!" Ethan said to himself, trying to think of where he knows it from. "Okay, that's not possible!"

"What's not possible?" Sophia asked her brother.
Ethan pulled up at The Morgans' driveway and turned around to Benny. "I'm gonna call your grandma to come and get you, okay? We have four minutes left to save the world, you hang tough, okay?"
Benny responded with a nod and a groan.
Ethan and Sophia ran into their backyard. "This is the tree? In our backyard, seriously?!"
"Funny, how they name streets after what they tore down to build them." Jesse said, appearing from behind the tree.
"This used to be an orchard; one of my favourite spots until your idiot ancestors burnt my flock alive." His eyes were a bright blue.
"Yeah, well, I'd say their only mistake was not finishing the job." Ethan pathetically shot back, causing Sophia to roll her eyes.
Jesse chuckled and held up the Cubile Animus. "You made me miss my target. So, the rest of my flock may have to wait a little longer, that's fine. I still have enough Dusker souls here to resurrect a few dozen of the most powerful vampires that ever lived and you'll have the honour of being their first midnight snack!" Jesse pointed at the Morgan siblings.
"You won't have to wait. Because I'm going to reunite you with your flock right now." Ethan grinned, pulling out a knife. "Just not in this world."
Before he could attack, with a simple wave of Jesse's hand, he sent the knife flying backwards, out of Ethan's hand. He then shot another constant wave at Ethan and Sophia, making them weak and slowly fall to their knees.
"It's funny, I knew your grandfather's grandfather; he was a loser too." Jesse said.
"Hey!" Sophia called. "I'll have you know I'm much more popular than my brother!"

Benny ran up behind Jesse, attempting to catch him by surprise, but instead, Jesse threw him to the floor, landing right next to Sophia.
"The hour of rebirth has come! Brothers, sisters, arise!"
Sarah jumped in out of nowhere, shocking Jesse and knocking the Cubile Animus out of his hand. Sophia caught it and stared at it in disbelief before handing it to her brother.
"Hey, I've got your friends in the box!" Ethan said, happily.
"And I've got your babysitter!" Jesse snapped back, holding Sarah against the tree by her neck.
"No!" Sophia screamed out once she saw Sarah.
"Okay, she's really Jane's babysitter." Benny chipped in.
"Give me the Cubile Animus the souls must be transferred now!" Jesse snapped.
"Just give it to him," Benny whispered. "what are we gonna do with a nest of souls anyway, eBay it?"
"Now! Hand it over or she dies!" Jesse yelled.
"Just give it to him!" Sophia hit it Ethan. She couldn't let her best-friend die.
"Ethan, no, don't!" Sarah choked.
The sound of Jane and Evelyn yelling a spell at Jesse from the window made the teenagers turn around. A bolt of lightning hit Jesse, knocking him back and freeing Sarah.
"Hey, you can have the box, but not what's inside!" Ethan grinned, opening the box. "You wrecked their premier, now you deal with them!" The souls escaped the Cubile Animus.
"No!" Jesse yelled. "No, what have you done?!"
The souls began to pass through Jesse, clearly hurting him. Sophia shuffled closer to Benny, slightly worried about getting hit by one herself.
Red dusk surrounded the vampire before he disintegrated.
"I can't believe you dated that jerk." Sophia sighed, stepping away from Benny.

New Game (Reborn as a Reluctant Demon Lord, Book 1)
Portal Fantasy. Isekai. A daydream of nerds everywhere, leaving behind their boring world and living in a fantasy one that is full of adventure. A daydream that became a reality for me and 1000 other Comic-Con attendees. Except for me, it was more of a nightmare. Wanting nothing more than to find a way home, and also saddled with being the world's new [Demon Lord], I found myself trapped in a gamelike world and also somehow a part of the [Hero's] party. So join me as I tell the tale of my struggles. A tale of levels and skills. A tale of cagey game admins and bugs. And a tale of our party's grand quest to defeat... Well... Me. ---- What to expect from this book? 1. A main character who is not overpowered (and instead has to go from near-useless to strong. Not just weak to strong). If you are looking for an OP [Demon Lord] who laughs at his weakling enemies... This isn't for you. 2. A meandering pace as the characters aren't told how a lot of the world works and have to figure it out themselves. (And because there are a lot of characters. Whose idea was it to have a party of 9? I blame Jake) 3. A tragedy. A lot of things are not going to go well for the protagonist. (Not that everything is tragedy all the time. There is humor, laughter, friendship, and even a mascot monster character who got way more popular than I expected. But this is not a story that will leave you uplifted and inspired after every time you read it). ---- Release Schedule and publishing information: Book 1 is complete! I will include a link to book 2 once it has been started. Feel free to give feedback, positive or negative. ---- Other notes Book 1? Yes, this says Book 1. There are probably going to be 3 books. No, the plot as you can guess is not going to be tortured to drag out all the way to book 3. That would be ridiculous. If you can guess the plot of books 2 or 3 at any point before the last chapter of book 1, please use your clairvoyant powers for something more productive. TitusGM? This story is intentionally told under the username TitusGM because the idea is that he was the one actually writing everything down what happened after it all is over. I initially planned to answer everything in character on this site, but that just really didn't work out. If you want an in character response to a comment, simply prefix it with IC: (I also try to leave that as a reminder in the author's note after each new chapter) Cover art? Made by a friend who shall remain nameless at this time by his request

Grim Beginnings
For most, ghosts and monsters were fantasy. For Tessa Byrne-Reyes, they were a constant in her daily life as a reaper. The legendary gods and creatures of mythology were, to her, historical figures. From a young age, she carried the weight of the world on her shoulders, possessing what she saw as a curse but what her family considered a gift. It was her birthright, to use her abilities to guide the deceased to the afterlife of an eternity in peace or in torment. Her classmates viewed her as "the fainting girl" who would pass out in the middle of a lesson with inexplicable injuries. She experienced each death in the town of Belmont Falls, from the mundane to the gruesome. A gunshot wound in the gut, broken ribs, her heart ceasing to beat for several minutes. No one understood what caused these incidents but over the years, she gained a reputation for being abnormal. While Tessa is the freak of Belmont Falls, Fin Belmont, the charming rebel and son of the richest man in town, is her polar opposite. Knowing each other for years but never saying more than a dozen words between them, one night changes everything, thrusting them into each other's unfamiliar and daunting worlds. Together, with the help of her best friend/his ex-girlfriend Elena, they begin to unravel secrets about their town and their pasts, learning that some secrets are better left buried and grudges can be held for centuries.
