《》Chapter 1

I walked into the hotel and looked around slowly. I chewed on my bottom lip as some monsters turned to look at me. A light embarrassed blush formed on my cheeks. I held my head up high and walked towards the front desk. I went to speak and check myself in but they already had me checked in and even given me my room number.
"Thank you," I muttered, softly under my breath.
I turned and started towards the stairs to head up to my room but a little red headed boy bumped into my legs. He fell backwards onto the ground. I gasped softly and bent down to his level to help him to his feet.
"Are you alright?" I quickly, asked concerned.
He looked up at me and gave me a big smile.
"I'm okay," he responded.
A short black haired Vampire rushed over to his. She scooped the boy up into her arms.
"Dennis! Are you okay?" She questioned.
"I'm okay Mommy! I wasn't watching where I was going..." Dennis explained.
The girl looked at me and forced a smile. She eyed me up and down. I shifted uncomfortable under her gaze.
"Hello," I greeted, uneasily.
"Hi," The girl responded, kinda coldly.
"Mommy she is the one I bumped into," Dennis explained.
"It's okay. No harm done," I replied. "It's nice to meet you Dennis but I have to run to check into my room then go to my tennis lesson. Farewell!"
I turned and used my Vampire speed to my hotel room.
I wondered downstairs only to find Mavis and her husband, Jonathan in the lobby whispering to each other. I froze mid step. I took in a deep breath and sighed heavily. I hated the thought of her being married to a human but it was too late now. He was her zing and I couldn't stop it. I walked over to them and forced a smile at Jonathan.

"What are yous doing here in the lobby?" I asked.
"Dennis wanted to see his friends. After all his birthday is two weeks away. He wanted to invite them himself. I still cannot believe he has started walking..." Mavis gushed.
"Where is Dennis?" Jonathan wondered.
I turned sharply when I heard the gasp and so did Mavis. A woman in a dark purple gown bent to Dennis. Mavis rushed over to his aid and cradled the boy. I stood frozen staring at the lovely woman. Something in me broke when she rushed up the stairs. My heart was pounding in my chest. 'What is happening to me?' I shook the feeling off and turned back to the two.
"So you both are throwing the boy a birthday party?" I asked.
"Of course!" Mavis replied.
"We'll invite everyone in the hotel. It would be a blast!" Jonathan offered.
Dennis squealed in happiness of thought of everyone coming to his party.
I stretched my aching limbs from the tennis lesson, tango lesson and so on. I chewed on my bottom lip as I went into my hotel room for a quick shower. After my shower I wrapped the towel around myself and went to change into something more comfortable. I dressed into a black and red gown.
I brushed my hair with the help of my telekinesis. I braided my hair over my shoulder. Once I was done I walked over to my balcony. I felt kinda bored and lonely. I flipped over the railing before shifting into my bat form. I flew into the air and started to play in the soft large puffy clouds that formed about the hotel. I wasn't the only one in the clouds. A black bat with red eyes was also flying around. I landed on the cloud to my surprise it held my weight. I watched the other bat quietly before it turned and spotted me watching. I squeaked in surprise and quickly took to the air. I stopped when the black bat blocked my path. We looked at each other in silence before I felt something in me jump with joy. My heart was beating fast which made my chest hurt.

"H-Hi?" I stuttered, shyly.
"Hello?" The male, greeted.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"I'm Dracula. Owner of this hotel. Who are you?" He replied.
"I'm Alessandro" I replied, shyly. "Or Ally for short."
Dracula smiles. He shook his head and coughed awkwardly. I giggled softly.
"I'll see you around Dracula," I said, sweetly.
I turned and flew back towards the hotel to my bedroom. Once I landed in my room. I walked over to the phone to order myself some dinner before I went to another one of my many dance class sessions.

Long Shadow
No destiny, no choice, no hope. Our protagonist, a coward summoned to a world meant for heroes; a new world with new rules and old cruelties. Join him on his adventures as he must deal with menus, monsters, and mysteries in this litrpg fantasy. Thomas Goodwill was an average boy with an average life, all that changed when he woke up in a new reality. Now, out of his depth, damn near out of his mind, he must learn to survive in a game-like reality with no reloads, checkpoints, or save scumming. He does, however, have a drunk snake. Thank you for reading my first story, hopefully, the first of many to come. This will be my main story and is meant to help me practice and hone my skills as I slowly produce more complex ideas. It's a litrpg in which I want to only lightly focus on the mechanics as I don’t want to pad out the word count with math and number tables and while I want to add a few of my own twists here and there, overall I’m going to keep this story close to generic as possible so that I don't let my inexperience lead me into a corner. Thanks again to all willing to leave a review or some constructive criticism, without you I'd never improve. Unfortunately, Cover art is by me.
