A routine hike turns tragic when an ordinary man meets an untimely death… only to wake up in a pod, surrounded by the sights of a world both eerily famili...

I loved hiking. It was liberating.
Up here, the air was just better, cool enough to keep the sweat on my brow from sticking, fresh enough to make me feel alive. My boots crunc...
2025-01-23 01:58:43 +0000 UTC View PostIt had been a week since my encounter with Killer B, and seeing he hadn’t bothered ever since, I had decided to just let him be.
As far as my sensei, Jiraiya-sensei was off somewhere doing what he referred to as “important research,” which was code...
2025-01-22 19:08:25 +0000 UTC View PostThe days in Kumo began to blur together. Jiraiya-sensei had spent most of his time “working,” which in his case meant mysteriously disappearing and then returning either drenched in water, bruised, or occasionally wearing someone else’s shoes in his skull. ...

2025-01-01 05:08:58 +0000 UTC View PostThe abandoned mines of Zaun smelled as terrible as they looked from the outside, damp earth, toxic fumes and rusted metal, the kind of combination that seemed baked into every corner of Zaun, but worse down at the mines. Shadows stretched long and jagged along the walls, cast by the faint light f...
2024-12-25 01:43:14 +0000 UTC View PostA little bell jingled overhead as I pushed open the door to the local Pawn Shop, the sound faintly drowned out by the hum of Zaun’s busy streets behind me.
“Benzo!” I called, stepping inside and letting the door close behind me.
The heavyset man looked up from be...
2024-12-25 01:37:51 +0000 UTC View PostThe crates were heavier than they looked. I grunted, shifting my grip as Vander’s voice carried over from the bar’s back door.
“Easy now, Hawk. No rush. Just set it down by the wall.”
“Got it,” I muttered, though my arms were already burning. The wood was r...
2024-12-25 01:33:47 +0000 UTC View PostA month ago, I died.
You’d think I’d be more upset about that. And well, if you had asked me that about… three weeks ago or so, the answer would’ve been a resounding yes. But now? Not so much. I think by now I was at the stage of acceptance with a touch of depression, ...

2024-12-25 01:25:05 +0000 UTC View PostI know I've been missing. I had a terrible month, on and off sickness, and lack of will to write altogether.
I think with everything that had happened before, the hurricanes, my constant debuff of being sick, and other stuff, I was reaching the point of burnout. Not because I was wri...
2024-12-25 01:09:14 +0000 UTC View PostMy legs trembled slightly as I leapt out of the water, barely managing to stick the landing on the narrow canal that led away from the massive underground pond.
My feet slipped a little as I crouched, but I caught myself before I fell back into the water...
2024-12-25 00:40:49 +0000 UTC View PostMy legs trembled as I dropped to one knee, as exhaustion hit me like a wave. My new technique had drained me more than I realized or even anticipated, each pulse of chakra leaving me with less and less to give, and now I was nearly empty.
The mist was alive.
Everywhere I turned, it shifted and swirled, carrying the faint echoes of Zabuza’s mocking laughter. My blood dripped to the water below me, leaving a trail wherever I moved. Cuts lined my arms...

2024-11-30 23:50:29 +0000 UTC View PostThe smell hit me first.
Navigating the sewage system wasn’t anyone’s idea of a glamorous mission, but it had been tolerable up to this point. Damp walls, narrow walkways, and the occasional scurrying of something ...
2024-11-30 23:48:47 +0000 UTC View PostThe inn Jiraiya-sensei chose was everything I expected—a cheap, small, and faintly questionable place. The wooden sign above the door creaked ominously in the wind, and the paint on the walls was peeling like it had been losing ...
2024-11-30 23:45:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe border of the Land of Water was exactly as I imagined it would be. The air grew colder as we walked, the mist clinging to everything like it was auditioning for a horror story. Jiraiya-sensei trudged ahead with his usual swagger, his steps crunching on the ...

2024-11-24 18:26:49 +0000 UTC View PostThe hours wore on, and I continued moving through the endless stretch of savanna, keeping just ahead of the hunters. Despite the occasional close call, they’d yet to actually catch me. I’d managed to dodge each one with a combination of careful pac...
2024-11-13 01:32:25 +0000 UTC View PostJust finished the unpacking of everything in my new house. It took a bit, cuss I had to sell a lot of stuff as my apartment is smaller. Updates start tomorrow, thanks for the wait.

2024-11-12 02:36:36 +0000 UTC View PostThe trial the summoning clan wanted me to do was simple. Surviving the hunt for 24 hours.
