Heavy steps clicked across a hard tile floor. Click, click click. A man, tied to a chair, trying to scream for help that will not come. "Mmhhm! Mmmhm!". Click, click, click.
"You shouldn't have crossed me little Judas. I warned you want would happen if you decided to cross me, and look where we are now," a figure in the shadows whispered, slowly bringing up a sharp, silver knife, and dragging it across his arm. "Now, where shall we begin?"
He pressed the knife into Judas' skin, drawing blood, before a shadow shifted, drawing the attention of both men.
A tall woman in a black outfit landed, falling from seemingly nowhere. A hood covered her head, with a mask covering her mouth and nose, leaving only her purple eyes and grey skin to be seen. Her long dress falls to her ankles, black combat boots going up to her knees.
She slowly stood up, blocking the exit from the businessman, and flicked her wrist back. Gladii slid from her sleeves into her hands, and she attacked, leaving a dead body on the floor and a hostage, cleared of memories, free to leave.

-I had a really weird dream this last week that led to me having half of a first draft for a space adventure story. It would kinda be like Star Wars but in the South during the American Revolutionary War. Would you all be interested in reading it? We

Unwitting Champion
"In stories this is always easy. There's magic and powers, and quick steps to claiming that power for one's self. This doesn't feel true for me. I'm supposed to be a Champion, whatever that means, and yet I don't feel important. I don't have all the bells and whistles, which honestly feels familiar even in a new world. But what was I expecting? I haven't had the worst life - there are people with worse problems than mine - I've known what it is to struggle, to be pulled down instead of being helped up.This is nothing new."When in great peril, the Kingdom of Althor has no choice but to send a call into the void, beseeching the Fates to bring them a man who would save them from the coming darkness. Unfortunately the path the Fates chart is often unknowable to men and the Champion who appears is not what the kingdom expected.Unwitting Champion is a story of a guy displaced, dealing first and foremost with trying to survive in a world where he is no longer a person but a tool, and - at least from the reaction of those around him - a shoddy one at that. His major goal is to survive long enough that either he can run or find a way home, because as exciting as the possibility of learning magic might be, he would rather have a boring life than a short life.

Return of Chaos
For the longest time, it was thought that the citizens of Earth were the only denizens of the galaxy incapable of developing superhuman abilities — but recent events have flipped that assumption on its head. Between Austin Travis, Mote Emerson, Pierce Bradley, and their friends, Earth is now host to 12 Chaotics… as well as a myriad of mysteries surrounding them. From a new nemesis in the form of a clone, to connections to ancient technology from a long-lost civilization, to the ability to summon powerful legendary weapons, these 12 Chaotics have unknowingly become entangled in something larger than any of them have ever imagined. As if in response to these discoveries, the sinister machinations of galactic evil are churning. The metallic infection, a calamitous nanotechnology “disease” thought to have been vanquished 20 years ago, is slowly returning — and alongside it, a number of conflicts thought to be long past. While they only seek to better grasp their own abilities, Earth’s Chaotics will soon find themselves in the crossfire of returning threats and old heroes. These superpowered Earthians may not have chosen this path through life, but it will still be up to them to determine if history remembers them — to determine if history remembers the saga of the Keys. Return of Chaos is a direct sequel to Chosen Chaos, which begins the Key Saga novel series. Be sure to read Chosen Chaos first, to understand the plot and the characters thus far! Additionally, the Key Saga as a whole takes place 20 years after Rise. You will not need to read Rise to understand the events of Return of Chaos, however the latter will spoil many of the events that occurred in Rise, due to the simple chronology of taking place later in the timeline.
