PTV: Early Chapter 76

Katsu Hikkomori

“Aaaand done.” He groaned as he stretched out. The lead up to the yearly conference was always a rush of activity. 

He looked up and his office at this time of the year was a mess of memorabilia that had to be approved. Stall permits, building inspections, Pokemon Ranger request...

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 197

“Kanada Tsukimura.” I started off. Eventually payment had been decided and Hiromi looked pretty happy about everything, even if I had to nudge her and remind her about the friendship discount.

With that, Hayato had left having other things she had to do, and left the gig to us.

We were officially on the job....

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 196

My breath in my ears was all I could hear as I moved. Up and down, over and across. I raced across the city. Legs pumping, and arms pushing and pulling as no obstacle slowed me.

I had felt constricted after everything. Between the Tygers bullshit, and now 6th Street trying to frame me?

So once everyone had split...

PTV: Early Chapter 75

“I’m awake!” I yelped as Arcany stepped up onto my bed. The very act an alarm clock, as I didn’t want to have to wash the slobber off my face.

I rubbed my eyes and felt the bed shaking from his tail wagging as I sat up. “Good morning Arcany.” I told him and earned myself a wet nose pressing into my cheek earning him ...

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 195

The next morning I groaned as I sat up. We had all crashed on my couch watching TV and hanging out, and I had definitely not gotten my full eight hours, but the sun was out coming through the window waking me up.

Stupid California sun.

I looked around. Hiromi was curled up beside me. Rebecca looked like she had ...

PTV: Early Chapter 74

The Blackthorn arena was really big. Ornate, and set up with a large pool of water in the middle.

As we all walked in, I noticed Clair twitch as the Old Master settled onto a bench on the side of the arena to watch.

But then she shook it off and focused on me.

“Challenger of Blackthorn! You st...

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 194

I ‘borrowed’ a cheap looking car as I traveled over. I knew my Quadra would stand out, since I had chased after Yuto in it last time.

Since I knew where he was, and I knew how hard it would be to get close without being seen, I had come up with a brilliant plan!

“Alright. Everything looks good… Alright T...

PTV: Early Chapter 73

I felt my teeth clatter together. Pryces opening act had been to slam some sort of bastard child of Hail and Blizzard into each other and it had started snowing like crazy ever since. Literally blocking out sight with how dense it was, and I was pretty sure he could keep powering it up with another Hail. Or scarily it might be self perpetuating....

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 193

The next day I went into the net, and checked the NCTV server. Thankfully, thanks to my Perk gained knowledge I had slipped a few backdoors into the server as I breached it, so the netrunners never noticed me peaking in again. I was able to slip in without issue and double check the information.

Nothing yet. Yuto’s subscriptio...

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 192

“I can’t believe this jackass was trying to hide under our nose.” Malcolm grumbled. I had been gone long enough for him to catch up, as we gathered  in the netrunner cave.

“Tell me about it.” I hissed. Yuto had been hiding in the same apartment complex that Jun and I had used to live in. Right in the middle of Jap...

PTV: Early Chapter 72

“Hehehe!” I continued to giggle as Blissey was being silly and carrying me around like I was a stray cat as she sauntered out of the Gym without looking back, and then marching to the Pokemon center.

“W-wait up!” Bugsy called out, but Blissey didn’t wait up, and instead, continued on, practically skipping down the stre...

PTV: Early Chapter 71

(A/N) Bit of a late chapter here, but I know it's been a while since I posted anything. I just wanted to thank everyone once again for letting me deal with life stuff for a while! The Funeral is tomorrow, and then some family drama stuff might suck me in, but otherwise things should be calm enough for me to get back into the swing of GitC. 2024-06-13 03:16:56 +0000 UTC View Post

PTV: Early Chapter 70

A/N: SUPRISE! Random update time! On the good news this break has had me knock out a few PTV Chapters so I have some postable backlog and that's good because I needed a post to share some less awesome news. Gonna need to extend the Hiatus, reasons below. (Don't read below if you are already sad!)

In the bad news, I'm going to need to ext...

PTV: Early Chapter 69

A/N: Hehe! Might seem a little silly to post another story when I just went on a hiatus, but I uh... Just sort of tinkered with PTV and had a chapter. Oops!

Since it was already getting dark I decided to stay in Azalea town’s Pokemon Center.

Sure I could go home, riding Dragonite, or Arcanine, but ...

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 191

(A/N) So I once again regret to say I'm going to need a small hiatus. Unfortunately my family situation is just... A mess at the moment. And it's really impacting my time. I can't keep up the normal schedule, when half of my days are being taken up dealing with other things. Of course I'll keep writing, and hopefully get some foothold on my back...

PTV: Early Chapter 68

I think Falkner wasn’t taking his loss well. I met his glare with a soft smile just waiting for the official stuff to end.

His fist was gripped tight as he held his badge.

He didn’t speak. So I decided I would be the bigger person.

“You fought really well. I wasn’t expecting that Tri-Att...

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 190

“Hayato, sit down dear. Motoko, child. Politics will not go away, take it from me. Once you are involved you will be so for a long time despite your wants.” Wakako offered and I grimaced. Yeah that was what I was afraid of Wakako! “Now, despite the difficulties it will bring, I wish to hire you for a long term gig.”

“Okay?” 2024-05-26 17:03:05 +0000 UTC View Post

PTV: Early Chapter 67

The next day after finishing up a new improved training for the little ones. I changed into travel clothes. 

“Are you sure?” I asked, as I put on my hat and looked over at Lucario.

“Lu.” She agreed, giving me a firm nod. There had been a shift in dynamic after Riolu and I had battled together. Riolu...

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 189

“You had no right to call for the girl's presence.” Fujimura interrupted my staring contest with his words, as everyone in the room's attention shifted to him. “The girl defended herself from a threat, and was right to do it.”

“Is that so?” Moritaka asked, turning to Nakagawa. “Is it normal for our men to be killed when dema...

750 XP Gained.

I swiped out cleaning my borrowed blade of blood as I took Musashi’s Katana in my other hand. 

“Sorry, I’m so tired of hearing people tell me how important they are. You were saying something?” I asked the man that oozed danger. Even with the Menpo he wore I could tell his ja...

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 187

‘Musashi’ Daisuke Smith

“Where the fuck did she go!?” He yelled out as he raced back into the walls of the dojo.

Fucking dammit. This was supposed to happen outside the dojo! Sensei wouldn’t interfere, but there would be trouble after if they caused trouble here!

“She jumped on the r...

PTV: Early Chapter 66

“Gooom!” Brave roared as she pulsed, knocking the flames of a flamethrower away as she charged right into Charmanders fire. 

The draconic energy swept the flame away and let Brave charge right into the surprised lizard's face.

Then she roared and a water gun slammed into Charmanders face earning a cry o...

“So there we are, Pilar, is acting like a gonk, and this borg is just looming over him. Pilar looks down to the electronic key he had to Maine's car and he says, ‘Well you can’t really blame me for this, your security sucks.’ And Maine just glares.” Rebecca spoke standing on top of the couch we were all sitting around at.

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 185

“A deniaaaal!” I hit the last note, letting it sound clean and clear.

Technically I didn’t need to do much work to get a studio clean track prepped for radio release. I had technically done it all before, but if I was going to make an official track I wanted to spruce it up a bit. This would be the version of this song eve...

Oops! I forgot to tell you I was taking a hiatus!

I thought I had added the note into every posting, but I missed it here on Patreon. Taking a small hiatus as I'm just not able to write at the moment. Will probably miss next chapter day as well, but I'm aiming to be back by then.

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 184

“Alright, everyone up. Slow and steady now.” I called out as we were guiding the people into the Behemoth. There was an understandable hesitation in wanting to enter the massive truck.

“Hey, it’s alright! We’ll be heading into Night City to drop you all off, it’s not like there are buses out this far yeah?” Malcolm...

PTV: Early Chapter 65

“Pillow, stop.” I grumbled half asleep. It was early, the sun wasn’t even up and Pillow had decided that I had taken up too much of my own bed. His cold nose, and wet tongue were doing a good job of forcing me away from the warm comfort of my own pillow.

He did not in fact stop.

“Pillow.” I growled, op...

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 183

“Ugh. This is why I don’t go out of the city. The sand is fucking everywhere.” Rebecca grumbled. We had taken a pit stop a few hours into the drive to let everyone hit the bathroom if they needed, and poor Rebecca got the worst of it.

“Well you aren’t supposed to press your ass into the sand.” I joked back, and she g...

Ghost in the City: Early Chapter 182

A/N Hey everyone, some bad news. Stuff is still rough, and I'm going to be busy with family stuff for the rest of the week, and likely won't have time to write, so I am putting a small hiatus on... Again. Sorry everyone. Let's say next update will be the 29th unless things get worse... Again.

Ghost in the City:Early Chapter 181

A/N Had to do an update here. I didn't realize my use of * in text was turning dialogue into italicized instead of leaving the fucking formatting in. I'll have to figure something out. Sorry about the confusion. I went in and fixed it.

The next morning I woke up to stare at the sunlight coming in through the armored blind...
