Ellie's concerns II (Page 15)

She pulls out of her parking spot and stares at the cars parked in the parking lot. I'll admit it's a little weird to be stared at so much, but I've grown used to it. I'm very important to a lot of scouts, and it's become a regular thing. What makes me uncomfortable is when women stare at me and laugh or giggle at each other. I can never find ou...

A life changing meeting (Page 4)

Mom and dad said they have an old friend coming over who can help as if something is wrong with me. I'm learning magic just fine. The diary answers any questions I have or problems I come across. Gaunter left yesterday. He's heading to Vizima. Dad asked him to find a mage called Mar. Mar is supposed to come after being asked by Gaunter. I've lea...

Ellie's Concerns I (Page 14)

I finish the last of my shooting drills, and that means I'm pretty much done. I can invite some people to the park if I wanted and play some pick-up basketball. My teammates are either at home or exercising themselves. I feel my phone go off in my sweat pants. I pull it out and see that it's Ellie. I open the text and read it. She's worried sinc...

Illegal Assembly (Page 28)

I leave the store with all the parts in my inventory and make my way towards the spaceport. I know where some shooting ranges are, but I need the proper tools to assemble the blaster. All of what I need is in the workshop. While the tools there are for fixing starships, they'll serve just fine. "Did you hear? The top players from Gaia's Awakenin...

Going to my Favorite Park II (Page 13)

I continue my jog towards the park, and while I dribble and practice, I hear honks from fans from time to time. Holden is a small town, and I stick out very much. People will notice me no matter what I do. After about 20 minutes of walking and jogging, I finally make it to the park. I see no games are going on, and I'm the only one that'll be us...

Buying my first Blaster (Page 27)

I walk the metal path leading to one of the blaster stores I passed on the way here. The world of credits has some strange rules, and while I get the bases and pricing scale. It's sometimes inconsistent. That'll happen when you use a single currency in a universe. I see a store up ahead that sells blasters.

The first blaster I've ever look...

Going to my Favorite Park I (Page 12)

I duck as I exit the classroom. The doorways at Holden high school aren't made for seven-footers. I feel someone tap my forearm as I walk down the hall, and I turn to see who it is. It's a girl by the name of Jade, last name Smith. She transferred here Junior year, and we've been great friends since then. The first time I talked to her was when ...

Durado's Offer (Page 26)

I focus my attention back on the legendary bounty hunter. Durado is much more than I expected him to be. If he exists, so do others like him. More people of legendary status, I can safely assume it's not limited to bounty hunters and mercenaries too. An officer in an army to a particular government can have a status like that, a famous general o...

A Good Message (Page 25)

[From: Aegis Industries]

[To: Scott Autumn]

[Subject: We've gone over the partial blueprints you've sent us, and we're happy to say we are interested in a deal. Your request for a 3% royalty on all sold ships based on these blueprints is fair, in our opinion. The issue we are having is finding creditability in your name. We haven't f...

Discovering a new trick (Page 3)

My mom and dad have a guest over today. The last time we had a guest over was when Dad invited an old friend. The man could use magic too, but I can hardly remember what he looked like. The guest was saying he is a merchant of mirrors. I haven't been to a city or village before, so his tales about them are amazing. His name is Gaunter O'Dimm. Da...

Talking and Practicing (Page 11)

I continue my drills after my little announcement about my height. A few minutes later, a man dressed in a suit walks into the gym with a cameraman behind him. He is also holding a microphone. I look at the logo on the camera, and it says ESPN. I've done some interviews before. Only after big games, though, this is the first time I've seen them ...

First day of Senior Year (Page 10)

I continue the last part of my run to school with a light jog, I have a long frame, and I'm the perfect mix between skinny and bulky. My muscles aren't too big or too small, allowing me to move with fluidity and finesse around the court. I'm a 5 star small forward all-American, number 1 in all charts and prospects. It sucks that I can't go strai...

Something unexpected (Page 9)

I get out of the shower and head to my bedroom. I could hear my phone blowing up when I was cleaning myself. I pick it up and see that I'm getting messages from people I don't even know. I go on Twitter, where all the messages are coming from, and I see what the commotion is about. Someone posted my game on Twitter, the highlights at least. Ther...

Knowing and Doing are Different Things III (Page 24)

I jolt up from the couch, and I dart my eyes around the living room. Jessica is sleeping on the other side of the couch, fully clothed. It was a dream. I look at Jess, and her skin is flushed just like when she was releasing the pheromones, they must have caused that dream. I reach into my pants and fix the painful position my rod is in. I sit u...

Knowing and Doing are Different things II (Page 23)

My sister looks into my eyes. She doesn't have any hesitation. My mind races, thinking of how this could be happening. That's when I remember one of the descriptions of the races. It was a race that looked like snow elves. It's called the Arn Zael. My eyes glanced over them in the character creation. I wouldn't remember them if not for my traits...

Saving a Merchant of Mirror's (Page 2)

(5 years later)

~~~(POV of Alexander)~~~

The port in Novigrad sure is busy with this war going on. I come up here once a year to acquire services of the mage's to reinforce the ward on my hut. I have a lot more to protect now that my son is always running off on an adventure. Cera (pronounced sir-uh) is so full of life. He has brough...

Developments Everywhere (Page 8)

I enter coach Rodger's office and take a seat on a chair. He takes a seat on his chair behind his desk and looks at me. "You are much better than I thought you were, and once word gets out about tonight. More and more interest in our games will build up. We have 4 more Scrimmage games before the regular season starts, and this team needs to lear...

Knowing and Doing are Different Things I (Page 22)

I turn off the TV since the programs are super boring now. Nothing good when it comes to the news and all the problems regarding alien people are gone, thanks to my program. I hear footsteps from behind me, and I turn to see Jess in her pajamas. She looks well-rested, which is good. She sits on the couch with me and turns the TV on. I groan ever...

Scrimmage game against Edwin High School II (Page 7)

~~~Half-time~~~

I watch as coach Rodgers paces back and forth in the locker room. The game is closer than it should be. I've already got 4 blocks and 8 defensive rebounds this game, and all of them are from John's turnovers. I haven't gotten another opportunity to score yet, so I'm still at 3 points, and I can see that is about to change. ...

Checking the Forums (Page 21)

I leave the respawn area now that I know how the consequences of death work. It's definitely late now, and I should get off. I make my way to the space-port, and I enter it. I head towards the starship shop and into the office and backrooms. I enter the apartment I'm being lent. I head for the couch, and I sit down and log off. I exit my gaming ...

Scrimmage game against Edwin High School I (Page 6)

The school day has just ended, and that means Edwin is just arriving or is close. I walk to the gym and pass students in the hall. Many have gotten used to the 6'5 14-year-old freshmen. Some still give looks, though. I make it to the gym doors, and I open them. The game is starting at 3:20, and it's 3:03 right now.

I look at the bleachers,...

Destiny is subject to god's too. (Page 1)

The worlds that I watch and the special people in them are all predetermined by random chance. It is the way I created these worlds for as little work for me as possible. Other things have spawned from my initial creations as well. How humorous, creations creating creations. I wonder how long life will prevail before it is consumed by death.

First Practice III (Page 5)

We've run drills and cardio for the last 1 and 30 minutes. It's 5 o'clock now. I'm not worried about being at school too much. I still remember everything I learned in high school, and my grades are even better this time around. So I don't worry about classes or tests, which means I'm not pressed for time at home. While Ellie might be getting wo...

First Practice II (Page 4)

I'm already up two points. I'm feeling pretty good with my shot, so I think I'm just going to end this game with jump shots. "I'm not letting you score like that again." I scoff at him, and he gets really tight, on defense. I haven't put the ball on the ground yet, so I'm seeing if he has any defense in defending jabs and pivots. He is slower on...

Testing Death (Page 20)

I make my way out of the shop and brainstorm ways to die in The Aeternus Universe. Many come to mind immediately. Jumping off a building, getting shot, provoking the local authority. The criminals are another option, piss off some of them, and I can see how death works. I don't want to go through the hassle of getting to the top of one of the bu...

Autumn's Fall

I finish putting the ship together, and I open the cockpit and sit in it. I turn the power on, and it hums to life. "This is going to be such a fun thing to do." I get a notification from the system, but I don't open it right now. I run diagnostics and see the standard encryption on the systems and how everything is pretty run of the mill. I mak...

First practice I (Page 3)

Today is the team's first practice, and I'm pretty excited. I've got the first meet nerves. It'll be cool to meet my teammates for the first time. I walk through the halls of Holden High School and head towards the gym now that school is over. Practice starts at 3:30, and while I practice every single day. It's going to be cool to actually have ...
