I dunno why I decided to put this up on KHV of all places. X'DDD It'll probably make me look like a n00b. Eh. I don't really care. Anyways, this is a short, original series that I'll basically be doing in short bursts, as fast as I possible can. WITHOUT SPELL CHECK. Why? Simply because I think I've been having too much brain-fluffing fanfictions that has left my original-ideas seriously lacking. So this is... Um.... Help? Anyways, I go for as long as I can on a school-afternoon, and by the time I reach bed-time (or a good-enough stopping point - whichever comes first), I stop and, with luck, put it online. I don't have a title for this yet... But It'll probably sprout into a full story later on. Keep your fingers crossed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A low rumble of thunder rumbled a little ways off from the tiny city omninously. The girl inconspicuously drew the cloak a bit tighter around her body, striding through the crumbling, drab streets, eyes darting around every-so-often for any signs of trouble. Trouble was something one found very, VERY often in this hell pit of a city. A passing stranger examined her curriously, eyeing her odd choice for clothing - a leather trench coat that came to the middle of her calves, a widely brimmed hat that cast her whole face in a shadow, and dark, wrap-around sunglasses. The sunglasses wouldn't have looked so odd if it wasn't for the fact that it was in the middle of the night. The redhead glared at him for a moment, and then, remembering that she was wearing shades and the man couldn't see her facial expression, allowed her hand to casually slide inside of the folds of the cloak. The stranger quickly got the message and rushed off, with a short muttered, "Excuse me..." The girl watched him until he'd disappeared, and then traveled down a dark alley, making sure to make her path as twisted and contorted as possible. Finally, she found herself at an old warehouse, most likely forgotten by anyone who had time to care. Her slate-colored eyes scanned the place for a few seconds until they rested on a man leaning on the nearby dumpster, smoking a cigarette casually. He was drssed simularly to her. She grinned, jogging up to him immediantly. "Korn..." she sighed, a grin pulling at her lips. "Thank God... For a second, I was afraid you wouldn't show again..." The man flicked the cigarette away casually. "Almost didn't - some guy recognized me from those damned bounty posters they have up everywhere, and got either really really bold or really greedy. He wasn't too tough to take out, but when the Chimeras showed up... Well, that was a different story. I almost thought I was done for." He grinned. "So, you got the document for me...? C'mon - even if you didn't manage to, there's always next time, kid..." "I have a name, ya know..." the girl huffed, pretending to be upset. "And I'm NOT a ****ing kid anymore. I'm 26, ya know." He rolled his eyes. "A kid. Now c'mon - did you get the document or NOT, Rosie?!" "Calm down - don't get your panties in a twist, grandma - I've got it right--" She was suddenly shushed by the blonde-haired man. "....What?" "...Did you hear that?" Korn asked softly, his dark, brown eyes darting around. "Hear what?" "......." He subtly drew his gun, snarling. "We've got company," he whispered so that the intruder wouldn't be able to catch on until the last minute. He nodded to the side ever-so-slightly, informing the girl of the intruder's position. Without another word being wasted between the two, Rosie drew her gun as well, and the two began firing rapidly at the corner over to the side. An agonized yelp sounded, followed by the sound of a body crumpling to the ground. The duo immediantly rushed to scene, Korn towering threateningly over the wounded intruder and cocking his gun once more. "You picked the wrooooooong night to get fresh, punk," he snarled. "Wait - DON'T SHOO--" BLAM! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sooo shooort. DX It burns. Ah well - cheers to a good start, at least. ^^; Lord of the Wings, ~Leah
Well, If I enjoy someone's writing, that's yours. It's been quite a while since you've posted anything in a while, except for the story of the two demons and the angel...which you never finished >.>
I'm not entirely sure how to finish that one. X'DDD Right now, I'm just focused on revising it and making it a bit... juicier. It was REALLY scrawny when I put it up, but I had a word limit and I literally put it up ON he day of the deadline. DX I HAD to go as fast as I could. But now I can take my time and make it as good as I want. XDDD I'll probably do something simular to this, too. IDK. Thanks for coming, though! Always does mah heart good to know that someone out there wishes me well. ^^
"In It to Win It" Here's another story. Please note that every new part in this "Quickies" thread will usually be a new story. If I like the story enough, I will make another thread exclusively about IT. The quickies thing is only practice, I guess. God - I can't seem to talk today. DDDX Anyways, this story is based off of a dream I had last night. It was so epic, I started writing as soon as I woke up. XDDD ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ He knew he was trouble from the start. Golden-flecked eyes watched the strange being standing a little ways from him. He was swaying slightly, and crooning to himself in a strange, lilting language, seemingly completely unaware that there was a small crowd of guys standing around him and snickering to themselves. His entire presense gave off a strange aura - fairly short, had a pale, guant face, strange markings around his eyes, shoes that seemed just a size too big for him, and loud, outrageously juvinile clothing that hid not a bit of armor on it. And if he had a weapon anywhere, he wasn't showing it. Amatures... Rylin thought, rolling his eyes as he shouldered his quilt of arrows. They're probably thinking he is nothing but easy prey... Can you not see there is a wolf in our midst? He shook his head. They're probably going to follow him until the gates open... What a new-blood mistake! Oh, no... Not I. I'll keep an eye on ol' pasty face, but I'm not going near that being until I see what he's made of. He could very clearly still catch the scent of blood lingering around him, though what kind, he couldn't tell. His eyes wandered a bit more, until he came across a group of females collecting into a group and chattering amongst themselves secretly. Aliences... Another new-blood mistake, he thought with a scowl. In this rigorous of a competition, you can't afford to GIVE your trust away so foolishly. It has to be earned, and, in most situations, not given away, at all. A sigh. I know it's their biggest competition ever, but come ON... It won't even be fun with THIS many rookies in the mix... He searched for the one of the girls who probably had years of experience on her belt and was only doing this to score an easy number of kills. ... That one. It was a tall, slender being that moved with fluid grace, and had a neck that could swivle around freely, and large, slanted, pitch-black eyes. She didn't LOOK too dangerous, but there was no doubting the look of the warrior about her. {Compeditors!} Rylin's ear twitched slightly as he reajusted his ear-bud. Damned things are WAY too loud. Wish they'd think of making some for the beings that AREN'T half-deaf... {The tournament will be starting momentarily! Before we begin, let's review the rules so that no one will have to suffer the dishonor of being eliminated!} Rylin, having heard this recorded, automated speech many times before, was already starting to tune the annoying thing out. {Hello, and welcome to the Hekanayu Games: Unlimited Death Match! The Hekanayu Games have been going for almost two milinia strong, and ever since its birthplace on the Fi Moon, never have we tried fitting so many talented warriors into one tournament! You all have been chosen for various skills and from various walks of life to be our humble guests for the next five evenings! {Here, the rules are simple, and we ask you to keep them in mind. After the tournament starts, you will have fifteen minutes to spread out amongst the vast, underground cavern we have created for you. You are NOT to kill any compeditors in that time! However, if you come across any monsters during that time, there is no rule against killing THEM. When the fifteen minutes are up, you will hear a loud tone through your ear piece that signal the "gates" are open, and you may begin slaying your compeditors then for a set amount of time. When time runs out, you will hear another loud tone that signifies for you to drop your weapons IMMEDIENTLY, and return to the Grand Hall. All warriors that kill, or attempt to kill not in those set periods of time WILL be eliminated. {This tournament will have five rounds - Round 1, Round 2, Round 3, the Semi-Finals and the Finals. During all of the initial three rounds, time limits will be set, and a fatality guard will be on. For all of those not familiar with the use of fatality guards, they are charms that our people use to keep one from being killed permanately in the ring. You will appear once more in the Lobby, completely healed, where you can watch the rest of the fight on our projectors. After the Round is over, you will be sent home. More on the Semi-Finals and Finals later. {On your contracts, you would have seen a list of items that you are NOT to coat your weapons with at ANY time. While it is acceptable to make use of MOST sorts of poisons, please note that there are some that do not respond to our enchantments, thus making them strictly forbidden in any of these beginner rounds. If you do not recall the substances, but fear that your poison may be of the listed ones that are no allowed, please be safe and clean your weapon now, or, if you have multiple ones, use one that is simply not coated. Anyone seen using the banned substances WILL be eliminated! {Throughout the tournament, you will be recorded on camera for our TV audience's viewing pleasure throughout the entire universe. So play hard and put on a good show! Round 1 will begin in 3... 2... 1... Good luck!} Immediantly, the Grand Hall was filled with the sound of over 50,000 trained warriors rushing out to find a good spot. Rylin grinned to himself, the adrinaline rush already beginning. This time, I'm coming out on top! I hope you guys are ready, because you're looking at the next King of the Games!
Very good both of them. I like the first one the best because it's very open ended, I want to know mooooooooooooooooore ^_^. The second one is also good but I felt it a bit ... I don't know. The main character seems a bit strange, I'd like more info on his motives if you continue because he seems a bit arrogant at the minute. Very good though ^_^.
He is a bit arrogant, but his arrogance is well-placed. He's a good person at heart, but his people are naturally a bit... haughty. Yeah - more on him later. XD AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THE FIRST. I WAS WORKING ON IT FOR A LONG TIME, AND THEN BOOM. IT ESSPLODED. I KNOW NOT WHERE IT IS, LOL. I'll try to dig it up and revive it some time. X'DDD ****ing fandom is stealing all of my time with my poor, underdeveloped OCs... X'DDD
