Royalty In Disguise

Inspired by real events "Mama, I don't want to drink water. It's already so late if I drink water then I'll have to get up again to pee." "Okay then at least keep this glass by your bedside I don't want to go all the way back to the kitchen to put the glass away," Mama said, a little too angrily. Asia was taken aback by the harsh tone. Also, weirdly. Her mother looked very strange. She looked unfamiliar in an eerie manner. Asia couldn't exactly put a finger on what was wrong but there was something, for sure. She, hesitantly, took the glass of water and gulped it down. As she was drinking something, that felt like a snake, the glass caught her tongue and started pulling her tongue down. She dropped the glass to the floor and started screaming and tugging at her tongue. A blood-curdling scream left her mouth. The pain she that was feeling was none like any other she had ever felt. Her mind started to get numb. She wailed and cried but Mama stood there, smiling a bit, not even moving an inch to help her. All of a sudden, she felt footsteps approaching maybe it was her brother that has came to help her, she looked towards the left to see that her brother and her mother were running towards her, she looked towards her right, stunned and scared to find that where her mother was previously standing, there was no one. She stopped feeling the snake tugging at her tongue. She looked at her hands, felt her face and looked down at the floor where she had thrown the glass but there were no shards of glasses which should've been there. That wasn't the first time. Asia Chohan had been seeing strange things ever since she took a hold of this new "money". Not only her, but her entire family had been experiencing surreal events that could only happen in their heads... except that it's not. Or are they? Add to your library to find out.

But with new money, come new problems. She and her family are seeing, imagining and actively participating in things that are apparently not real. Slowly but surely, the selfish family loses its mind. One after the other bad things, annoying situations start breeding and prospering. ho is the mastermind behind the destruction of the Chohan family? And is there a bone of kindness that might help them to save themselves or are they just made dark filthy evil hood?

(Hiatus) Ragnarök: The Fimbulwinter Saga

ON HIATUS. Will pick it up later. __________________ Ragnarök, a word with more than one meaning. For some, it is the end of everything, the End War, the Fall of the Norse Gods. For others, however, it is the beginning of a new Era brought upon by the wielder of the ancient power Fimbulwinter passed down to the most worthy amongst the Jötuns, the frost giants. But with the death of its previous host, Fimbulwinter is transferred to Loki Jökul, the son of a Viking father and a Frost Giant mother. To escape the watchful eyes of Odin, Loki's soul is transferred to another body in another world far from the nine realms, Gleymaheim. But was it the safest decision? Gleymaheim is a world engulfed in the flames of war. Everyday, the inhabitants struggle to survive against beings coming out of Portals leading to somewhere unknown. Thus begins a new Saga. ____________________________________________________ Disclaimer: - The characters in this fiction are imaginary. - The Old Norse Mythology used in this book won't necessarily be the same one that you know of. - Unlike my other novel, I'll try to keep this more within the trends, but in my own way. - Compare to my other work, this one will have a softer magic system, if you've read my other work you'll understand what I mean. - Update will be slow for now because I need to focus on my other novel. But they'll pick up in two weeks. ____________________________________________________ Do check out my other work: "Return of the Woodcutter" I promise that you won't regret it ;) (At least I hope you won't.) ____________________________________________________

Reincarnated as a Nuclear Bomb

ABOUT THE BOOK Reincarnated As A Nuclear Bomb depicts the adventurous journey of Ryan Bonnier who awakens in another world as an advanced mechanical killing-machine capable of causing explosions that could end an entire nation! After discovering that his maker [an ambitious Terrorist Leader], plans to conquer the world with his unstoppable killing-machines, Ryan decides to play the hero and battle the villain. With the aid of the U.S military, Ryan successful obliviates his maker - losing his life in the process. His sacrifice wasn't forgotten. As a matter of fact, a large statue was built in order to honor him - his selfless deeds would be remembered in the hearts of the people for a very long time. The battle wasn't over yet - the enemy just lost a pillar, and they could replace it anytime they wanted. The United States must've won the battle, but they did not win the war. SNIPPET 1 The tunnel was located in a secluded part of the Terrorists zone. The rat, Ryan and Lynnette all crawled into the tunnel. It was wide enough to fit a human given that the human was small figured and crawled on all fours. In the tunnel, permeated a very annoying smell. “What smells like that?” Lynnette asked with a frown. “This is where all the terrorists drop their shits.” The rat replied. “Smells annoying, right? Don’t worry, you’ll get used to it.” “It’s just the smell of Terrorists poop. Don’t worry, you’ll get used to it,” Ryan chuckled. “I don’t want to get used to the smell of terrorists’ poop!” Lynnette itched her nose. SNIPPET 2 How do I leave this godforsaken place? Ryan asked himself, studying the men and their movements. Then, he remembered what had happened earlier! The people that saw him were terrified by his appearance. Even he himself did not know what he was, or how he looked like, but he hoped to be handsome. Ryan inhaled and exhaled deeply for about five seconds before he charged towards the exit. The terrorists guarding the exit saw him and they were terrified of his appearance just like he had wanted them to be. But what he didn’t see coming was the fact that they had guns, and had been ordered to shoot anything they couldn’t identify! The bullets from their guns dashed towards Ryan, but shockingly, he jumped into the air and avoided them all! His speed was extraordinary and this shocked the men including Ryan himself.

Quiet, girl." He says as he continues to walk, "don't even try to run away. You ain't gettin' nowhere with me here. Just lay there obediently or else i'll have ta' knock you out again." ...I wasn't even going to fight anyways, not that I could even if I wanted too. "Where are you taking me?" I question, my voice sounds raspy and burns with every word I say. "Away from here. That's all you need to know. Now quiet, I don't like hitting children, but I will still do it." He says, his voice as rough and raspy as mine, except much deeper and more natural. I sigh and turn my head to the side. Honestly, I don't really care where he was taking me. It couldn't have been worse than my own home, now could it? I was wrong. Oh so very wrong. Compared to the place that they were taking me, my home was a paradise. -- Cover art is not mine, all credit goes to it's creator. Each chapter will have 1000 to 1500 words per chapter.
