《Escape The Night - Season 3》Episode 7, Part 4 - The Murky Moat
Advertisement
Sasha and Oli followed Lauren and Alex back to the moat in total silence. When they got there, they faced the sea witch, both terrified of what might happen.
"Find the totem at the bottom of the moat," the witch sang. Next to the moat were two small boats with fishing nets. Sasha and Oli looked at each other, silently wishing each other good luck, before running to the boats and pushing them to the moat. They started throwing their nets out, trying to find the totem faster than the other.
This is way harder than I expected. I am throwing this net out and I cannot find this totem. I really hope Oli is having the same trouble as me.
I underestimated how difficult this would be. I'm really far away from Sasha so I really hope the totem is nearer me than her.
The two kept searching for the totem, praying that the other was also struggling.
"Hey, Oli, have you found it yet?" Sasha asked.
"No, this is really hard," Oli said.
"I know, I thought this would be easy," Sasha said. A few moments later, Oli pulled the next up with the totem inside.
"I found it!"
The sea witch created a wave to push Oli to shore. As Sasha desperately tried to paddle to shore, the witch raised her hand, and tentacles rose from the water. Sasha screamed as they grabbed her boat and dragged it under the water, with her in it. Oli watched on, helpless, as the boat slowly sank, and saw the look or pure terror on his friends's face. He watched the top of the water and saw Sasha slowly drown, and saw when the bubbles stopped, signifying her death. Oli clutched the totem and ran away from the moat, with Alex and Lauren in hot pursuit.

The door to the break room burst open as Oli ran in, startling the guests.
"What happened? Why are you out of breath?" Dan asked.
"Sasha's dead. She drowned. I had to get out of there. But I got the totem," Oli explained. He put the totem on top of the tower and sat back down.
"Did you guys figure out the box?" Oli asked.
"Um, no. We half thought you might get a clue," Willow said.
"I didn't find out anything," Oli said. The group looked at the box, all very confused.

Settlement of Safehaven - A Hearthtree Series
"Welcome to the ECS Asgard, your ride through the stars to your new home-" Or so goes the sales spiel of this one of four and first-produced colonization ship, a spiel meant to placate the portions of humanity who would be selected for such a journey through the stars.

Empress' Evolution
The bright red light of the flames swallowed her vision but soon that red light transformed into a blue hue and she was dragged into that light. ‘What’s happening?’ It was too bright and she was forced to close her eyes, she was blinded — even though she was already dead. After being pulled into the light she began to feel annoyed as her skin was irritated by some kind of rough sand. By the time she opened her eyes. She could see the full view of the sky. It was blue and there were clouds scattered about. ‘Ugh, is this Hell?’ She stated as she rubbed her head with her fluffy and furry ‘hand’. ‘Furry?’ She looked at her ‘hands’ and her mouth opened wide. Her hands had become soft and fluffy paws of a white-furred beast with purple spots. ‘What the hell?’ She touched her face with her paws and confirmed that it too did not belong to a human. Below, she felt something was moving, she can tell as if it was another limb connected to her. ‘Don’t tell me!’ Turning her head around, she found a seven-inch tail sticking out behind. ‘Phew!’ She felt relieved that it wasn’t what she thought it was. “These soft and paws, this cuddly fluffy hair, this cute tail — ah shit, did I become a beast after my death or have I been dreaming of being human as a beast all this time? If it is the latter that is one long and realistic dream.” === [It’s the former, stupid *] === Said a woman’s voice from in her head. === As always thank you for reading, also the image in the cover is not mine, I found it on Pinterest and thought it was cool and suitable. All credits got to the illustrator. Also, this is a new type of story that I have not read about yet. Basically I am writing an evolution novel without prior knowledge so I don't really know what is considered cliche in this genre.
