The First Trio- How Marrena joined the Mythicals (Part 1)

"Woah... the wildlife here is amazing, Saryn!" Zinah picked a flower off the mountain. "These plants had to adapt to the cold in order to get the rich nutrients under the snow. Amazing!"
Saryn smiled. "Yes, it is. Now, remember, we’re exploring, yes, but keep an eye out for distress. It can be anywhere."
"Okidoki!" Zinah picked up a little ferret. "But isn’t this cute?"
"I guess." Saryn hiked up the cliff. Noticing a shadow in the distance, she focused on it with binoculars.
A red flag.
"Zinah!" Saryn yelled over her shoulder. "A red flag! Distress signal! Come on!"
Zinah shot up. "Got it!"
She air-bent herself while Saryn flew her bird-like mount to the flag. Once they landed, they both let out a gasp.
"My gods..." Saryn covered her mouth.
Crumpled on the ground were hundreds of hunters. Blood stained the snow a dark red. One man was leaning against the flag, blood dripping out of his wounds.
"That man." Saryn pointed in his direction. "He’s still bleeding. He’s still alive. Get your first aid, Zinah."
"Got it," Zinah pulled it out of her bag and rushed over to him.
Saryn inspected the rest of the hunters. She checked all their pulses. They were all dead. Bowing her head and kneeling in respect, Saryn thought to herself, By the great gods, who could’ve done this? These hunters were heavily armed, and they had the training badges of Elites. Barely anyone can beat one, let alone hundreds of them!
She walked over to Zinah and the one survivor. Zinah was calming him as she bandaged his wounds. "It’s ok, sir. I’m the Elemental, and Saryn here is my bodyguard. You’ll be ok."
"We’ll avenge your comrades." Saryn nodded in respect. "Who attacked you?"
"I don’t know, ma'am." He stuttered weakly. "It was just a blur. But I did catch sight of claws, fangs, a tail and raging mad eyes. I don’t know what its intentions were. But it wiped out me and my mates."
Zinah looked at Saryn.
"Where did it go?" Saryn asked.
The hunter pointed to a thin trail of blood leading away. "Right before it could kill me, I shot it. Follow the trail, find it."
"Shouldn’t we stay with you until you’re a little more healed?" Zinah asked.
"No need," he smiled. "I’ve taken worse. Go ahead and fight it. Good luck. You’ll need it."
Saryn started following the trail. "Come on, Zinah."
Zinah followed, leaving the man a thermos of hot water and a mug.

So about Death's Duty Calls...

I'd suggest reading this before Death's Duty Calls. Hi! Hello. If you don't know this yet I am a real human being, I'm a proud Canadian and I love writing. This play you're about to read, this play right here is mine, and it's based off my interactions with a certain friend. I won't call him out, but he'll know who he is. So yeah. Feel free to use this play. It runs about an hour and a half in length. The word use is fairly basic , but some of the themes addressed in the play are PG13 ( drinking, intimacy, homosexuality and abuse to name a few ). I, the author, suggest a high-school level audience and actors . A lot of the characters have loose looks ( looks that aren't addressed in the play ), and some are set. Here's a list of characters. Whatever is in bold  is said in-play, whatever is not is how I see them and is open to change and interpretation. Anything not mentioned is yours to decide. Jeannine "Jay" Moses - Female, h...

Author's Note 3

It's October, which means SPOOPY TIME!  Super excited already. And I know I said I would be posting more often but I've been busy and lazy so... yeah. Here are the usual story updates fellers! The Mental Link I released Part 5 back in July so Part 6 is due. I'm currently writing it, should be out soon. (By soon, I mean within a month, not within a day) Interrogation Only wrote one part to this and I probably won't write anymore unless I get pestered about it. The First Trio 3rd Part is written. Too lazy to post. The Lady in the Mirror Writer's block continues. It's coming. Eventually. SNEAK PEEK- Stories coming out soon? Inter-Dimensional Heroes CO-CREATOR HAS BEEN WRANGLED. THIS IS NOT A DRILL. Characters and backstories have been updated, and a few roleplays have been done. I'm just psyching myself to write and post these.

The First Trio- How Marrena joined the Mythicals (Part 2)

After a long two kilometres of walking, Zinah started to complain. "Why can’t I just air- or earth-bend myself there?" "The wind would send the trail flying," Saryn said simply. "And the earth thing would mess it up too." "But how far can this thing walk while shot and after a fight?" Zinah asked again, only to be shushed by Saryn. The trail entered a cave. Firelight came out of it, casting deep, scary shadows out in the snow. "Are you sure we should go in?" Zinah asked, scared. "We’ll be fine." Saryn pulled out an arrow and nocked it into her bow. Zinah gulped but slunk forward with her bodyguard. Saryn fired the arrow. A scream filled the cavern. "That was... not that monstrous," Saryn said, tilting her head. "Maybe..." She was cut off by a tan blur jumping on her and knocking her down. Zinah let out a scream, but Saryn stayed calm, pulling out her sword and slicing her enemy. The thing slowed, ...
