Adventure
The Life of a Ninja
I drew my katana from its place on my hip. It slid like butter from the sheath, flashing into the air like a flame. The armored men surrounding me leveled their spears in preparation for my next move. Silence hung eerily in the air. The heat of the night bore through my black suit, armor, hood, and mask, making me sweat more than I usually would. Luckily, my hands were gloved so I knew it wouldn’t affect my grip on the weapon’s handle. I twirled the blade, accustoming myself to its balance. I stared back into the eyes of my attackers, conveying my resolve. I saw fear, regret, and a hunger for violence. I could taste my imminent victory.

Big Bad Wolf
Sometimes it pays to be overly paranoid, at least in my case it did. I surveyed the area again carefully for any danger. Ever since I was little, I was obsessed with worlds other than my own. Far off planets and magical realms where mythical beasts roamed free. I never thought that one day those fantasies would actually come true.

A TALE TAIL HEART tale no.2
Freyja couldn’t figure out how she had been caught, but she knew that Bogran must have flipped on her the second her locket started burning inside her chest. It wasn’t just the normal soul-sucking sensation, it felt like her sternum was being ripped inward as the wicked thing took sinew and bone with it. It damned near felt like it would take the earth beneath her feet if she stood still for too long. Worse than that, the one installed in Delphi was starting to send jolts and her little neck was red. She could hardly breathe. Those massive fucking assholes. Big gaping pile-stricken taint pustules… enough.

DECISIONS, OPPORTUNITY OR FATE!!
Hi friends, welcome to my adventure book! When I was young, and even as an adult, I loved those old Adventure books where I got to pick my own ending. They were awesome, with a huge amount of different ends to choose from. Some had maybe fifty different endings, so I sat here thinking how I could write an adventure book and make it my own, something different then anyone I have seen out there or heard of before. Then it struck me, I decided to write an Adventure book based on one main character, You, the reader.

Mother curled my hair and pinned the delicate strands into a bun on top of my head. Alyvia and Taylor came over to get ready, and over-excitedly agreed to do my make-up. I feel like a princess, with the best looking entourage a girl could ask for.

Operation Phoenix
Our skies are mostly clear but there’s a storm among us. Our homes, our families, and our friends are being taken by the ricochet of bullets, bombs, and other weapons of mass destruction- all of which have been overlooked by empty promises made for peace. We were once a prosperous nation now held hostage by cowards. Our freedom is what we want, and what I want too. My actions tell another story. My hands pull the trigger. I’m a vessel, a gear in the machine, which does the storm’s bidding.

Genes’ Journal
July 7, 2510 It all started 5 years ago, just out of the blue 3 Celestial beings each the size of the sun or more surrounding our Earth and causing it to change into this apocalyptic hellscape we know today. I can recall exactly what I was doing on the day of the attack. My wife and I were on a vacation in New York City when suddenly, a blinding flash of light went off in the sky. We then hear tires screeching on the pavement outside, glass breaking and the echoes of countless car alarms going off around us like an orchestra of destruction throughout the entire city.

The Underground Gateway
The red glow of the eternal fluorescent lights. The tunnel was littered with gaping doorways that led even deeper into the underground. Brina was exactly where she shouldn’t be, as close to the surface as she could be. She heard a sound like the sound of an animal scuttling on the floor. It gave her cause to turn as she walked. When she faced forward it was to see to solemn boys standing before her.
