"You promise me that you'll wait for me when practice is over, Y/N/N?" My brother, Dylan, pleaded as he pointed at the spot he was standing on.
"Yes, I will wait for you here, Dylan." I chuckled lowly to myself, my eyes widening when I saw Jakob walk by. Making hand signs at him that told him to wait for a few minutes, I knew that Dylan was getting more and more confused.
"Are you alright there, Y/N?" Dylan confusedly looked at me like I was some crazy person. I gazed back at him and played it off coolly.
"Yeah," I leaned against the wall, trying to hide the fact that I saw Jakob walk by. "I just saw one of my friends walk by, that's all."
"But, B/F/N works at Target," Dylan's eyebrows furrowed and his eyes narrowed, judging whether I was telling the truth or not. "As far as I know. But, you may be right, maybe she works here at the arena..."
"And speaking of which," I pushed his frame towards the locker room, "you're late for yours."
"Remember," he looked at me in a stern way, "meet me by the entrance."
"Alright, alright," I gave him a thumbs-up, "I'll meet you there in a few hours."

"Hey, Y/N!" I heard a muffled voice trying to speak to me. Looking up from my phone, I saw it was Jakob on the other side of the glass.
"Hey, Jakob!" A genuine smile appeared on my face, waving at him. "How are you?"
"I'm doing fine," he shrugged his shoulders, playing around with the puck before passing it to Oliver. "How about you?"
"I'm doing well, thanks for asking." I nodded my head, remembering about the game last night. "How was your first game in the NHL?"

"You know, playing in my first NHL game and getting the first NHL point was a surreal feeling. I still can't believe it, even today! But, hey, gotta give props to Auston. 4 goals in 1 game, that's pretty amazing." He chuckled to himself before he heard the coach call him, "I'll talk with you later. Love you."
I blew him a kiss, hoping that Dylan didn't notice and luckily, he didn't.

"Y/N, you have to tell him sooner or later..." My good friend, Lawson, mentioned about the fact that I still didn't tell Dylan about my relationship with Jakob.
"Tell me what?" Dylan walked up to where we were standing with a curiosity-filled look on his face, "do you guys have something that you're hiding from me? Lawson, are you quitting Snapchat?"
"What? No! I don't have anything that is a secret," Lawson shook his head quickly to downplay the situation. "I'm just going to leave you two alone... Good luck with him, Y/N/N!"
"Oh, shut up, Crouse!" I playfully rolled my eyes at him as he dashed out to the hallway and go into the locker room for 'protection'.
"What is he so scared about?" Dylan snorted, wondering what was going on.
"Ihaveaboyfriend," I quickly spilled the beans, but he was confused about what I said.
"Could you say that a little slower?" Dylan cleared his throat, going into brother-mode all of a sudden. Crossing his arms across his chest, he leaned against the wall and gave me the look to say it again.
"I said, I have a boyfriend." A confident smirk started to appear on my face, also crossing my arms. "And, there he is!" Jakob walked over to where we stood, not having a clue about what the hell was going on.

"What's going on here?" Jakob inquired, wrapping an arm of his around my waist. "Oh... You were telling Dylan that we were in a relationship."
"Wait. What! You two are dating?" Dylan's confused look turned into a shocked expression. He was trying to process the brand new information. "Jakob, you do know that you're dating my sister, right?"
"Yes, I know that, Dylan." Jakob kissed my forehead before looking back at Dylan. "And I would never do anything to break her heart."
"Good. Because, if you do, I swear to god, Lawson and I will come to your place and-"
"And that's all for today, folks." I broke up the little 'argument' between him and Jakob. "Well, I'm really glad that you approve of the relationship, Dyl."
"Ooh, wait until you tell Ryan." He smirked at me and I rolled my eyes.
"Lucky for us that he lives all the way in NYC."

A Virtual Invasion
An invasion from another dimension is shut down by an Empire's traitor and the world has a scant few decades to build the strength to resist a multidimensional Empire. How will the world fair when no one even knows its doom is one barred gate away? Fortunately, the traitor has a plan. Maybe with a bit of luck and planning, he can build a force to defend the world without anyone realizing it. Author's Thoughts: What is litRPG (From wikipedia) - LitRPG, short for Literary Role Playing Game, is a literary genre combining the conventions of MMORPGs with science-fiction fantasy novels.[1] LitRPG is a literary genre where games or game-like challenges form an essential part of the story. A LitRPG work simultaneously narrates the story of characters inside and outside of the game-world. At least some of the characters in a LitRPG novel therefore understand that they are playing a game: they are 'meta-aware'. So, while Tolkien's Lord of the Rings is a fantasy novel, a book about people creating avatars and interacting in a Lord of the Rings MMORPG would be a LitRPG novel.Why do I read them? You know, I am not too sure. I love MMOs. I played them, quit them, joined up and repeated the cycle. They are fun! They are a massive waste of time but so are most games. Do I want to read about someone else playing them? Sort of?The advent of VR and the possibility of VR someday becoming so immersive that you can't tell them from reality sets the imagination on fire. What if this could be life? But most stories fall short. At the end of the day the protagonist hangs up his VR helmet and goes to have dinner with his mom and dad or other family and it becomes meaningless. It's like the story that ends because the main character woke up and nothing you read matters.There have been some books that explore the concept of the intersection of reality and total immersion VR. Enders Game is a classic. There were a few others that escape me but they exist, however, the cross between the game and reality is weak.So what if the game was real? The technology needed for total immersion VR is so advanced that by the time we reach that goal technology should have naturally evolved to include several items. You must have direct neural input. You simply can't have a total immersion (all senses and perfect presence) experience without this basic prerequisite. If you have direct neural access, you can probably do neat things like feed knowledge and skills directly to that person. You can undoubtedly do many horrible things as well. Muscles are controlled by the brain. If you control the brain why would you let the body just sit there and rot? A person that sits unmoving for 24 hours a day will have their body whither away just like a coma patient. However, if you control the brain you could control the muscles. On a basic level, this would be isometric impulses, working muscle group against muscle group to avoid atrophy. Taken to its logical conclusion you would be able to gain muscle mass and program muscle memory. The flip side is that you could remote control their body... but let's not go there. So what would people do if it were real? Well, they would probably limit and regulate it since the drawbacks are very obvious. Even if you look at the basic aspects of this you can see some negative possibilities. Look at the Sword Art Online anime. Personally, I think they missed the boat by putting a bomb in the VR helmet. Do you really need a bomb when you have direct access to the brain?So what kind of events would you need to have a situation where the obvious drawbacks haven't been explored? Maybe a society where the advancement of technology has so far outstripped the explorations of its applications that ignorance was truly bliss? Okay, so I had to put in an alien invasion to kickstart the premise, but that was just one of the possibilities.

How will Oscar ever survive in this chaotic world? Come, watch as our beloved character grows, makes friends, and paves a road into the firmaments as he establish his name in the new historical categories.Author's note*:This is an idea I'm roughing out. I'll be writing randomly, attenmpting to forge a storyline from my own sweat, determination, and creativity. It's loosely based on some Wuxia/Xuanhuan fictions I've read. It will have elements of human physiology, psychology, environmental science, nature vs man, man vs nature, human nature vs humanity, etc. This story is mean to be a work of fiction. It encompasses some of my views on morality. It will have corruption, foul-language, ignorance, racism. It will glean a bright world with imagination fused with the dark shadows for some to seek refuge. Though, in the world I will be creating... Refuge comes at a cost. A steep one.That is the Way of the World. The way of my world.Need cover art plz
