《Smile, Hero》A Silent Supper
Advertisement
Reeeeeee. Goodness gracious I'm tired.
Well. Your hero is back again with some big sad.
----------------------------------------------
America stared sullenly at his lap, not trying to keep any form of happiness on his face.
The nations were currently eating a meal cooked by France. It actually smelled quite delicious, but America didn't want any more comments about his weight.
Earlier, after America had dropped his facade, the nations became increasingly worried. This was not normal. This wasn't the American they all knew. Something was terribly wrong, and the nations were shocked. This led to a awkwardly silent dinner table.
America sighed, looking up and seeing every nation staring at him. He flinched away from their stares, afraid of what they would do now that they saw him so weak.
Everyone saw him flinch, and were shocked that America would display suck a cowardly emotion.
Oh god why wasn't I smiling? Maybe this was a bad idea.
They were all just staring at me. I don't know what to do.
"A-America, are you ok?" England asked, staring at America's untouched plate of food and smile-less face.
"Yeah..."
"I don't think so comrade," Russia added, staring into his eyes and noticing how dull they were. America's eyes lacked the sparkle of hope and youth that all the nations were used to seeing.
Finally, Italy was the one to breach the subject they were all trying to avoid.
"America! Why are you not smiling! You're the hero! Smile? Ve~"
A-America? A hero. The nation was shocked, and doubtful.
He put on one last sad smile.
"Sometimes the hero needs a break from being strong Italy," America whispered, and walked out.
-----------------------------------------------
"Gah what's wrong with America?! He's always running out of rooms!" England complained, not noticing the axis pushing their chairs back and following the young American out of the room.

The Court of Souls?
What do we talk about tonight?~“How about a story?”~Fine by me. Which story? Hopefully a good one.~“There was once a lonely child in a world filled with myths, gods and demons. Only power counted there and the weak were worse than cattle. A world where survival of the fittest ruled.”~Was it strong then?~“No, but the child had a power. One that made him stand between light and darkness. Nothing could escape him, so he was shunned by his people.”~ What did he do? Did he fight his fate? Did he hide his power? What was it?~“Oh, he fought. He fought a lot. And no thing could escape his power. It was something that everyone had to live with.”~So he became a hero and changed the world?~»…”~Tell me.~“Nooo, that’s not how the story goes. This isn’t a story of a noble man, doing good amidst a sea of monsters. This is a story of a demon who was… kinder than the rest.”~A kind demon? How boring.~“I think it would be better if I tell the story, so you can judge for yourself.”~So tell the story!

Ashes of the Primordial
With the upcoming shutdown of the servers for Ragnarok Games’ deep dive VRMMO, ‘Ashes of the Primordial’, the player log of those online for the final night was depressingly empty-looking. A revolutionary level of realism drove Ashes to the forefront of the games market, billions of players enjoying their journey to power and glory as an avatar of their own creation. The final enemy of the game-world defeated, the company announced, in line with their stance from launch, that they would be shutting down the game exactly six months after the defeat of Sutr, the final boss. Ammanas, the player responsible for Sutr's defeat, stays online until the end. However, as the countdown hits 0, the start-hub of his dive rig (what would typically greet a forced ejection from a game) was no where to be seen and instead darkness greets him as he fades into unconsciousness. Awakening to unfamiliar sights in an unfamiliar body, one which turns out to be a lot more familiar than he first thought, now he must figure out where, how, why and what to do with the new world he finds himself in. Author note: I don't own the cover, just something found through a google search. This is also my first story and the MC will basically be unimaginably OP yet never really utilising his full power. He just wants to find somewhere to fit in to the new world he finds himself in and despite both his nature as a loner and his interests he will find himself forming connections with the denizens of this new realm. Hope you enjoy

Why The Hell Not
Sweat started to form all around my body as the pain consumed me. It was 9pm and this had to be the worst wave of heat I've ever experienced! My body ached as the flames traveled from my core, spreading to the rest of my body. I hate heat, every type of heat, but mainly this one. Heat, in my pack, is a bitch! The second you turn 16 your heat starts. Then for the rest of your life you get a heat cycle once a month, as if having a period isn't bad enough. The heat happens right after your period, leaving you 2 weeks of peace as a woman if you find your mate your 16 years of life! If you did not find your mate at 16, when you turn 17 it will be every 2 weeks! Your period is still once a month, thankfully, but the heat cycle directly after your period is the strongest! Leaving you ONE week of peace...unless of course you don't find your mate by the time you turn 17. If you are unlucky enough to not have found your mate by the time you are 18, then yes it will be EVERY week! Leaving you NO peace!!Basically the longer you go without finding your mate, the more heat you will go through. If you're 20+ then it could be EVERY hour! Once you find your mate it goes back down to once a month, thankfully. Lucky, or lucky for me, I'm 17...meaning I've gotta deal with this every 2 weeks. This one in particular is the worst one yet! I grabbed the water on the side of my bed and tried to fix my dry throat.......
