《The Gotham Ghost King》Pure Crack
Advertisement
It only took 8 hours until Nico's temper tantrum died down. Impressive, as his last one took 12 days, a trip to Mexico, and an egged house for it to die down completely.
During those 8 hours, Nico summoned a total of 67 skeletons, pulled on their hair 37 times, landed 18 punches on one person or another, and interrupted one (1) intense Percabeth makeout session with a kick that knocked them over.
When he came to, the room around him was trashed, all of their clothes had a minimum of three rips, Annabeth was slumped over a rafter after fighting the last 17 skeletons, and Percy was slumped against the wall.
"Uhm. What's happened?" Nico asked.
"Are you finally fucking done?" Annabeth yelled down, neither of the adults moving.
"Done with what?"
"Thank Hades." Percy muttered.
"Okay. Firstly, where's Will? Secondly, why does it look like we've been attacked by a chainsaw?"
"Will's in the corner. We tranqued you, dragged you over here, learned some shit about Two Face, and got Will back. Secondly, hello chainsaw."
"Ok..."
"Too add on, Two Face is Ethan Nakamura with brain damage, the Bat Family showed up at one point and we almost had to fight them, and then we sat around as you tried to beat us up for eight hours."
"Ethan Nakamura? But he's-"
"No no. He's alive. He looks like he's been skinned on left side, and he's got a fuck ton of brain damage, but he's alive."
"Hm. He was definitely dead last I checked."
"We never found his body."
"I certainly found his soul floating around in Elysium after the Titan's War."
"Well then."
"... Shit. I need to go check this out if he really is here. Want to cover for me for a few days?"

"Really Di Angelo?" Annabeth asked.
"I don't need to fake a week-long kidnapping."
"What's in it for us?" Percy asked.
"A soundproofed, monster-proofed house that you could live in for a few days."
"... I'm in."
"Same."
"Okay. You guys keep up appearances and make sure that he doesn't murder me later. Have fun!"
Nico dove into the shadows, leaving the others behind.
"Did Nico just leave us to deal with his boyfriend?"
"Seems so."
"And isn't said boyfriend going to be pissed to high heavens when he finds that Nico just left without any real prep."
"... Gods dam you Nico."

Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.

'Okay let's see if I get this straight then, you touched the rope and gave its essence the ability to move like a snake, then you asked it to do what it did and it...?' "NO! I speak with mind to the hemp and vine, gave its essence the ability. Yes. Ask it to help me. It say sorry for the hurt. Not you I say, not you, you not hurt me. He make you to hurt! He hurt. You no hurt. Help me, free me. Please. Get me keys. It touched the blood on me. I felt it, sad. I felt it anger. I not ask it to.
