《A helping hand (American Dragon: Jake Long Fic)》Ch. 3
Advertisement
Jake felt like Lynn was becoming like family. They were close friends and seemed to connect over having big fates so young. Sighing to himself, he went off to school. He was getting a lot more time off from dragon business lately until now. There was some cartel of magical possessions going around and he was to put a stop to it. That's how he found himself with Nigel thrall.
"Good to see you long!" Jake groaned.
"It's never a pleasure Nigel. What you doing with this stuff anyway?"
Nigel tutted him but looked upset at the thugs below them.
"My family's heirloom was stolen by these insolent trash. I'm here to get it back and put a end to these rascals. Truce?"
Jake nodded, that was unfair to have your family's prized possession taken away. They were able to stop most of the goons but they were stuck in a crate. Nigel's wand was outside and Jake was surrounded by Sphinx hair. Nigel was able to get most of it off but Jake was down.
"Now what?"
Jake looked around and saw tons of magical artifacts.
"Can't you use magic with all this junk?"
Nigel laughed.
"Good idea, but I think you forgot the part where I don't have my wand! Normally if I did, with all these artifacts I would have a large boost to my magic than normal. Too bad wand-less magic isn't possible for me."
Jake widens his eyes at that.
"Maybe you.."
Jake brought up his hand and focused all his power to produce a flame into the second bead. Lynn's face was out of sight but she called out to him.
"What's up long?"
"Can you get to where I am and help?"
Lynn was finishing her training when Jake called.

"Yeah, where are you-"
"I don't know, can you find me?"
Lynn grew worried but answered.
"Yeah, you're scaring me but I'm guessing Sphinx hair has been involved. See you soon."
When the call ended Nigel was staring at long betrayed. Jake raised an eyebrow.
"You know another wizard and have been hanging around her? For shame long for shame!"
Jake rolled his eyes.
"You're not the only magical being in my life Nigel." "Yeah but I was the only wizard! Who is this witch? Someone from Brixingtin? Or Horringford!"
Before Jake could say anything Lynn's portal appeared before them. She walked through easily and winced at the sight of them.
"Oh Jake, you're really down on power huh? You must be another friend in the know I'm Lynn."
Nigel just stared up at the beauty before him. She was graceful and smart. Jake coughed and Lynn turned back to him. "
What do you need me to do-oh, oh my."
She saw all the artifacts and smiled.
"Is that first generation Krenix!"
Nigel sighed lovingly.
"She even knows her historical facts! And there's a jinglehen over there!"
The two geeked out over the artifacts for a moment before Jake whistled at them.
"Not the time nerds! Lynn can you used this stuff to help us."
Lynn huffed at him.
"It's not just stuff Jake! But yeah, I'm gonna need assistance. My mana is only enough to use one of these items."
Nigel nodded. The energies radiating from the items were too much for one wizards magic. It could effect how their magic works and damage it.
"I don't have my wand and long is out of commission. I don't see yours on you either-"
"what happen to your wand?"

Nigel pointed out side of their crate door.
"The miscreants got their hands on it and are using it to create damage to all these artifacts. We need a plan."
Jake sighed but nodded.
"I think I got one. Lynn, stick with Nigel and help him get his wand. I'll create a distraction for you two when Lynn gets us out."
Lynn turned to Nigel and nodded before pointing out a articfact behind him.
"Is that a Duexie di ten?"
Nigel turned at that and Lynn opened the door while he wasn't looking. Jake was about to comment but she stared at him pleadingly.
"Woah! I didn't even hear you say the spell."
Lynn smiled nervously.
"I..am experimenting with spells. I can do plenty with out incantations for them to work. My mentor is helping me learn and create them. I can show them to you later if you want."
Nigel seemed to believe it and they made their way to the wand.
"Come on, look how they flick my wand around like it's nothing.Quite enough of that, return my wand from his hands, flip it back with the power in my hand."
It wasn't working since it was in a new holder. Nigel repeated his words three times but he was away from his wand long enough. Lynn grabbed his hand.
"Together."
He nodded.
"With powers of dawn, bring back thy wand!"
It worked and Nigel felt his mana course through him as he held his wand. Lynn patted his arm to stop his celebration. The thieves were staring at them.
"Well, this is a sticky situation, but not enough. From fish to sea, make my enemies sticky!"
Nigel said as their enemies were sticking to the walls or each other. Lynn hummed.
"Nice one, lets get to the artifacts. We can work together and help Jake."
When they went back to the crate it wasn't a pretty sight. Jake was back his dragon self but he was still weak. The leader was a dark mage.
"Fools are you young warlock and witch. You can not compare to my power."
He was holding a artifact too which didn't help them. Lynn sucked away from his spell and took cover with Nigel.
"What now, I don't think we have enough time to think of a proper spell."
Lynn smiled.
"But what if we did?"
She held out her hand which was holding a time glass. He clasped her other hand easily.
"With this power in hand, turn back the times of sand."
Nigel was surprised Lynn knew so powerful spells but it worked.

The Worldforge: Warlock Rising
Abandoned as an orphan, Mar was tested for magic by the Mages of Orelm and was found to possess immense magical potential, but when he grew old enough to start his training he found he was unable to cast so much as a single spell! Embarrassed by their mistake, the mages threw him in the library where he read books and tutored the mage students for a bit of money. All the while, he can’t help but envy the the students who are living the life he had so eagerly awaited. But when an object of great and malevolent power promises to make good on all the promises the mages broke to him Mar is thrust into the world of magic. Mar will find that fate had something more than a life confined to the library planned for him after all. Authors Notes: I consider this to be a comming-of-age Sword and Sorcery story based mostly on the style of classic western fantasies. So if that's your thing then I encourage you to take a peek. Something I want to mention though is that the main character starts of pretty wimpy, and that might not be your thing. That being said, if you stick with him he's got a long way to grow. Also, while this version of the story is meant to be fully readable, more dicerning readers may want to wait until I move out of rough draft phase. There may be some inconsistancies with character and plot while I am still in the rough draft phase. I'm sorry for this, but this is my first web novel and from what I've read the best way to get a good novel out is to write write write, and then edit ruthlessly after you're finished with the book, so that's the plan I'm going to follow. Again, this is a rough draft. Everything you are reading is subject to change, including the name, title, and cover photo. This may no longer be the case once I've decided I know where this fiction is going and I have a reasonable understanding of the characters and their behavior. You're reading what comes off my keyboard as it's made, with very limited editing. There will be mistakes in the text. I do a quick spell check to take out the worst of the errors, but there will be some I miss. You can point them out in the comments if they are particularly confusing or glaring and I will try to fix them, however I am not overly concerned about minor errors as this is not the final draft by any means.

Crimson Pervert
Markus gets - quite literally - thrown into an RPG Fantasy world. Casually gaining game-breakingly great power is the very first thing of course, but afterwards travelling the world, building a harem and having plain fun is on the agenda. Note: No room to hide the fact that this is heavily inspired by the "Death March" web novel. I will give it my own touch by not having a Japanese-ish main character (Japan is cool and everything, but why have a harem if you never ever do something "H" with them?). Everything (characters, story, etc) is basically my creation, but I consider it a re-think of the original, so I can neither call it an "Original" nor a "Fan Fic". Don't expect it to be overly innovative. I will add an 18+ warning as soon as something like that happens, the first chapter just has a bit of undramatic blood. Comments welcome.

Regarding The Life of A Certain Fallen Noble
.. ...Every paths leads to the same destination... Five Saints, five Kings, seven Sins. One entire plane in agony. ..Chaos must reign... In days long past, several Mage Kings cut a path of destruction everywhere they went. Cruel experimentation, the creation of monstrous creatures, the tearing apart of families and mass genocide...There were few crimes the mad Mage Kings didn't commit. As the Five Saints were summoned in desperation by the races of the world, everything was already at it's darkest hour. When the fighting was over, when the Mage Kings were gone and the Five Saints had returned to their planet of origin, a World Council was erected to keep the the delicate balance from falling apart. Many eras pass. Lyle Greyborne. Current heir to the powerful Greyborne family, the only son of Adarian and Alyssa Greyborne. With the maroon hair of his Greyborne ancestory and the exceedingly rare golden eyes of his mother's Bathory clan, Lyle's talents can only be described as terrifying. These, along with his personal status, make him desired by many. After a young Lyle begins a relationship with one Sophia Alderton, two years pass by. Then a lack of trust coupled with a certain misunderstanding leave the two estranged and left on a sour note. But Lyle even still retains his friendship with Cecelia, Sophia's sister. With Cecelia, his loving sister Iris and Melanie--A young woman who recieved his aid some time ago--Lyle is content to pass the days in peace and idleness. Well, when he's not completing harsh missions from his combat instructor, that is. But this peace is ruined when Lyle's father tells of a mysterious group hell-bent on causing war between the human and demon continents. Later, when his father involves him and his sister in an incident resulting in Iris being put in mortal danger, Lyle makes a decision which could very well cost him not his life... but instead his soul. His status, his loved ones, his dignity as a human being... All these may soon be lost. His life isn't his own. Not anymore. He can only brace himself for the things to come and hope he makes it out with his sanity intact. ******************* EDIT- Author Note: Another thing, the cover photo is not mine. Obviously. It's just a picture I found one day at DeviantArt and thought that the two shown in the picture looked like how I imagined Lyle and another character to be. Simply put, it was convenient in various way and I also loved the art. From my understanding is is from a collaboration between artists Chocobikies and Pinlin. Here is a link to where I found the original http://pinlin.deviantart.com/art/Linked-456655669
