《Mianite Season 1》The assassin

Jordan's POV:
After about half an hour, I started to see a faint silhouette of what seemed to resemble a mountain, and my heart skipped a few beats. After ten days, land, finally! I got closer, and my smile dropped as I realised it was only a small island, with one small tree in the corner. Wilson however was ecstatic, and squeaked in delight while doing flips in the water.
I docked my boat, and collapsed onto land, having lost all feeling in my legs. I looked around, and didn't see any sign of a code, and wondered if Wilson got the places wrong. Wilson sat with his smiling face barely above the water, waiting for me to find what it was I was supposed to find. I noticed that every few seconds his gaze diverted upwards, and I followed his eyes. I gasped; high HIGH above me was a small platform made of coloured glass. Spiderwebs decked the underside of it, and it had to be about 100 metres above me.
Well, time to get some sand. I grabbed my diamond shovel from my bag, which I had made accidentally when trying to make an axe. Turns out it did come in handy. I wandered to the waters edge, and took a deep breath in, before diving down. Water immediately enveloped my body, and wrapped itself around every limb and in every crevice. The water was cold, and stuck to my skin like dry ice. It burned my skin, and stung every time I moved. I gritted my teeth through the pain, and swam to the bottom. I started to dig up some sand, and held it against my chest. I came up for air every thirty seconds, and dumped my sand on the beach. I did this for half an hour, until I had enough sand. I was exhausted. I smelted the sand into glass, and started making a tower. Finally I reached the top, and jumped onto the platform.

On top of the floating platform laid a single oak wood sign, and on it, five numbers: 6 7 2 9 4. I quickly grabbed a pen from my pocket and wrote down the numbers. It must be the code for the safe, which should've opened up five days ago. I really hope no one has found it and broken into it. I made my way back down and grabbed my things. Just before I was about to get in my boat and head home, I heard a shuffling sound from behind me, and I turned.
Nothing was there. I turned back around, and received a hard punch in the face as a result. I heard a crunching sound as fist met nose, and collapsed backwards from the impact.
I clutched my nose, and from feeling it, I could tell it was broken. I wiped my nose and saw lots of blood on my hand. I wiped it away from my nose with my sleeve and looked at my attacker. My eyes met his and I froze.......
It was Tom..........

Ursus Ex Machina
Ozzy was a man of the wild. Raised in a remote village atop the world's mightiest mountain, he'd been taught to respect and revere the natural world. The realm he was born into had been there long before him, and it would remain there long after him. Sure, there was the occasional madman who threatened to destroy it, but such boasts were always empty. No one individual was actually capable of demolishing this beautiful blue-and-green ball Ozzy called home. No matter what terrible magics these villains wielded, they were incapable of causing permanent harm to the environment. Even if the planet was completely devastated, it would recover. Life would find a way to flourish, same as it always had. That was what Ozzy believed from the bottom of his heart, so he never once felt the need to save the world he loved. After all, it was never truly in danger. The world would be fine no matter what. The people were a wee bit endangered, but that was another story altogether. However, what would happen if Ozzy suddenly found himself devoid of his beloved wilds? What would the man do if the realm he knew - one of wonder, magic, and chaos - was replaced with a man-made environment of concrete, industry, and steam? Ozzy could never imagine such a thing happening, and yet that was his new reality. After losing a fateful confrontation with a mad wizard, he and his friends found themselves transported to a strange world so thoroughly alien that every waking moment feels like a fever dream. Separated and scattered to the four corners of this land, each of these adventurers will need to adapt, survive, and overcome if they hope to reunite. They would also need to do so quickly. The sooner they are able to find one another, the sooner they can figure out a way back home and have another crack at putting an end to the villain's plans. Whether such a thing was actually possible in a world with barely any magic in it was a valid concern, but Ozzy had more immediate things to worry about. For instance, why did the air smell like a perpetual forest fire? How did ships sail through the sky as if it were water? And most importantly, was the pavement he was hurtling towards at high speed much softer than it looked? Probably not, but a man could hope.

Some become allies while others become wet stains on the floor. I firmly believe that villains can make for some of the most endearing characters. Monsters need not be sour and droll.
