Life was easy for Jason. His family wasn’t rich but they never had to worry about money so long as they spent within reason. A new PC? Okay, but don’t spend more than two-thousand dollars. New phone? Okay, keep it for the next 3 to 4 years. Having lived a pampered life where things were pretty much handed to him on a silver platter, life couldn’t have been better. Hanging out with friends, partying, drinking, smoking, he had nothing to worry about. Be that as it may, his parents had raised him well enough to respect others and to not be haughty. As such he had a good personality and was fairly intelligent. Things would change for the worse in his life when one night while out partying with his friends, he decided to take a breather and go for a smoke in an alleyway. ------- This series is posted here, on my alternate account.

In the end, her entire Yun family, over a hundred people, were executed, and she was poisoned by the child she had raised herself! As the poison took effect, she suddenly opened her eyes and found herself back at the age of twenty. The children of the Xie family stood before her, each affectionately calling her "mother." She vowed not to spare any of them, the culprits behind her family's annihilation.

This is my first attempt at a story. Even if no one read it I am having fun. It’s a story about a women who finds herself in a world unknown. The sky is purple and the Elves hang out in the trees to the south waiting to attack and eat you alive. This is a chapter sample Village My red wings blend well in the dark sky. This is a small village, if you can call it that, not even fifty houses. The village is on a small hill. The roofs are a light blue grass and the walls are an orange stone. There are no walls encasing the town. There are a few rows of a purple flower surrounding the village. The leafs are blue with red vines through them. These are flowers that give off a perfume that the beasts don't like. The flowers also surround part of the field that has creatures that walk on two legs. They look something like dinosaurs/large chickens with no feathers, and skin like an elephant. They are used like horses. The grass is a light blue and reaches to the forest. Not a person can be seen in the village. Not a light in any of the houses. "When darkness comes all babies should be in bed cause monsters play at night." I laugh at myself and dive. A red light lances through the sky from the column on the nearest corner of the village just missing me "Now that pisses me off," I say out loud, and let loose a black flame from my mouth. The flame hits the column. Then I let loose another. This time I hear a scream as the house I aim at bursts into flames. I blast house after house.
