Heaven's Will definitely existed. If not the case, then I wouldn't be able to explain why I was reborn. Why was a common old soldier like like me given a second chance?... more>>

What about my comrades? Did their karma not allow the grace?

I immediately knew why I was reborn. It must have been to kill that damn psychopath who was eating people to prolong his life. That reincarnate who called himself 'Gilgamesh' and a demigod.

After sharpening my abilities, I finally met him face-to-face.

He was as l'd expected... A demon required no mercy. He drained the blood of the living, and I sent him to the afterlife to pay for it.
However, my plan had failed.

The result was the destruction of my whole world.

Everything I knew vanished, and everyone died in an instant. I didn't know how he did it, but this cannibal had a trump card in his death.

My story should've ended there...

"Hey, handsome, are you finally waking up?" l'd opened my eyes in new flesh. Feeling like my memories and body were incomplete. I felt a breathing mask while submerged in a tank of strange fluids. This scene made me theorise...

...that my life from now on wouldn't be the same.
Now I had to pretend to be that psychopath's clone.

Pretend I didn't have memories of the past.

Quiet, reserved, and relatively enjoying his life.... more>>

Kane wasn't really happy when he woke up with a new name, a new face, and to a whole new world.

A world with one big continent, a place where cities are named A through Z, and also where bizarre things happen so often he has no idea how the world hasn’t completely fallen into ruin yet.

Also, things like monsters, evil scientists, giants, zombies, undead lichs, psychics, superheroes, supervillains, cyborgs, and anything else he could think of are a common sight.

And unfortunately as well, most of those things seem to be trying their best to kill him outright or cause mass destruction.

Annoyingly, since he now lives here, he doesn't really have much of a choice but to intervene in hopes of ensuring that he and everyone else in this crazy world can maybe live to see tomorrow.

Thankfully, though much to his utter confusion, he has awakened something called The Ultimate Gacha System. And although it might be a big help to him in his coming battles, it is rather perplexing that the things his system gives him are from animes, shows, games, or movies he has next to no knowledge of…

Despite this, Kane—now Kanagawa—hopes he can achieve some semblance of control while becoming someone he can be proud of in this perilous world.

To start, the Hero Association doesn't sound too bad, because honestly, Kanagawa could easily assume a place where heroes gather couldn’t be completely full of insane people right?

Right?

Great.

Book Two in the Let Chaos Reign storm series ~
Unruly hair aside, the sneaking out and turbulent ride over here seemed overall smoother than usual. Which, in my experience, usually means there is still something that is inevitable to go wrong. If it hasn't already, then it will. Guaranteed. Every. Damn. Time.... more>>

I start to pace, my mind going back through tonight's events, wondering if I might have missed something. Maybe he forgot… I don't know why I think that every time.

This cave is one of the very scarce constants in this landscape of dancing destruction. The Scar is always persistently changing, yet not, the tornados wreaking havoc in their predictably twisting and reckless ways.

The Scar remains a weird kind of maze of canyons and ravines that have been continuously carved by endless parades of swirling pillars of dust, dirt, debris, and anything else that gets caught up in it. Tornadoes dictate the landscape for miles on all sides, some taking the same paths over and over, enough so that mapping them has been a tedious, yet not impossible, task for nearly a full decade now. For the research cartographers and various elders of specific areas of expertise... Not me, specifically.

I'm just a TumbleTech.

The Tumbler is a magnificent little creation that essentially acts as storm debris at the very least, personalized rocket at most, depending on the size of the fuel tank and the kick behind the thrusters on a 360° rotation. Also, it can tow a two-ton wreckage comb like it’s nothing–those handy debris-collecting honey-comb-looking cages the Rovers use to scavenge for treasures of an ancient world. <<less

Sometimes I daydream about epic battles with swords and dragons, well-crafted intrigues between noble families or forbidden rituals performed by witches on a full moon.... more>> /> Occasionally, these stories are part of a larger narrative, divided into many chapters with a beginning, middle and end, which I may post about one day. But for the vast majority of the time, it's an isolated scene in a world yet to be built that I daydream about. These ephemeral snippets, I don't know where to put them for the rest of the world to see. So I'll post them here, and hope you like them.
Thousands of story fragments, talking about hundreds of characters, touching on dozens of different themes. Chaos reigns here, and that's perfectly fine.

While attending the 2038 annual Juneteenth march with her friends, activist and archivist Amina Fernandes witnesses a devastating terrorist attack using a mysterious technology that leaves dozens of police officers dead and injured. As the local Black community suffers under the resulting occupation by a federal taskforce seeking to apprehend the terrorist, Amina stumbles onto evidence that the attack might have been a false flag. ... more>>

Horrified by the implication of this information and wanting to live up to legacy of Black radicals she's idolized all her life, Amina decides to do something about this seeming conspiracy and protect her community. Assembling friends and allies to aid her plan, Amina acts to uncover whatever plot is brewing in her city. What she doesn't know is that her need for answers and justice will spark a series of events that will change everything and test how far she's willing to go to live up to her revolutionary values.

Dear Readers,... more>>

I am reaching out to provide an important update regarding my novel, "Where To Reach." After thorough reflection, I have decided to embark on a significant restructuring of the story. This decision arises from my concerns about the current narrative's sluggish pace, disrupted pacing, and the lack of meaningful involvement of the main character. As part of this process, I may also consider more substantial changes, such as redesigning the main character, even changing the title or eliminating certain locations from the storyline. But roughly everything should stay the same. I have always struggled with beginning a story so I assure you this is a one off occurrence. Because of this I shall be also deleting everything here and reuploading it as another novel on my profile. When i have the title written I will post it under announcements and leave this novel up for a few more weeks before taking it down. <<less

A lesbian science fiction retelling of Ragnarok and the events leading to it.... more>>

It has been a millennium since mankind abandoned its home. Corporations have carved up the heavens, and brought humanity to the stars with them to finalize those borders in blood. Their weapon of choice: Einherjar, ten meter tall humanoid mechs, powered by an exotic energy source as-of-yet barely understood.

Just under the illusion of peace sold to the public, mercenary pilots fulfill the wills of those who hold the reins of power. Pilots like Aria, a conscript turned freelance mercenary aided by her illegal and fully sentient AI companion, Nimue. After taking what seemed to be a routine job for a routine client, Aria and an erstwhile rival, Maks, find themselves facing down something older, more territorial, and far more deadly than any corporate force. And what’s more, their encounter has drawn the baleful eye of the deranged leader of the Penrose Foundation upon themselves. <<less

For this cyborg, power is just an upgrade away. ... more>>

Emmett was used to being caught between college and his engineering internship, but when he gets caught between a powerful hero and an even stronger villain, he becomes collateral damage. Instead of dying, he wakes up a cyborg. Turns out his boss wasn’t just an eccentric inventor, and the old man just gave him a shining opportunity to be a hero.

Except that’s just the beginning, and things are about to get a lot more complicated.

His boss has his own agenda. The boss’s daughter has her own power armor. His roommate works for an evil corporation.

And Emmett is small fry. Just a Class 1 hero.

Superheroes aren’t just masks—some work for corporations, or for the government and the military, and even as mercenaries in wars. Shadowy cabals pull the strings of hero and villain alike. The city of Belport might be peaceful for now, but most of the world is in turmoil. If Emmett is going to have any chance at making a difference, he needs to get stronger. A lot stronger.

How much of his humanity will he hold onto and how much will he trade away?

If you’re a fan of Cyborg, Winter Soldier, Iron Man, or Batman Beyond, then you don’t want to miss this series!

You might think that in the twenty-third century, after having reached the stars and expanded their reach across countless horizons, humanity would have grown past all of their squabbles and primitive greed. Technology has put what was once incomprehensible within the reach of any citizen. Food can be printed as easy as paper was in centuries past with housing nearly as simple, healthcare is as easy as a simple puff from an inhalant or a new body part from the biotanks, and yet corporations still lock it all behind paywalls. ... more>>

To the Creshe Empire, I’m just a number.... more>>

I’ve spent the past five years in isolation and under study. With my home razed by a Syldrari attack, my mind damaged, and nothing but white walls and a viewing window around me, I dedicated myself to two things: training my body, and reading any book they allowed me to have.

The Empire wants me to serve, to use the inhuman power the Incident stirred within me. Technically, they asked, but it wasn’t much of a choice. It never is. Serve, or… I refused to be a mindless slave. My life was taken from me once. Never again.

With the Empire moving forward with their xenophobic plans, they needed someone capable of killing Syldrari—and I was just that. A tool they could use, a tool they thought they could manipulate. Needing me was their first mistake. They gave me leverage, I named my terms.

Now, after five years, my life can begin. <<less
