Laurence Jones, an ordinary soldier at Valour International Military Organisation, had expected to fight a war against some humans to defend others. He had never expected to go against a whole alien race to protect mankind.* * *This more comedic yet darker counterpart and spin-off of Voltaic tells the story of Larry, Enrique, and his newfound acquaintances, Jennifer, Veronica and Tara, as they fight to survive a horrifying indundation of extraterrestrials as they flood Chicago with their kind. Larry leads the group in ensuring that they will live to tell this story to others, although they don't know one thing-that he had known about the attack beforehand. Valour had reiterated it just before it had all happened, that a mass casualty event would occur in the city. They called it the "Calamity of Chicago".-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Word Count: [[37,500-42,500 when complete]]-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1st Place in the Luna Awards 2023 - Mystery/Thriller/Action Genre2nd Place in the Hibiscus Awards - Action Genre2nd Place in the Rose Gold Awards 2023 - Adventure Genre2nd Place in The Crown Awards - Adventure Genre3rd Place in the Literary Book Awards - Adventure Genre3rd Place in Dazzle - Below 500 Awards - Action/Adventure Genre3rd Place in The Magic Book Awards - Best First Chapter Category…

[DISOWNED] DISCLAIMER: I have disowned this book. Seriously. It's awful. I don't even remember what I was writing and I after re-reading I still have no idea what the plot to this short story is supposed to be. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK (IT'S TERRIBLE)!--"How dangerous can collecting one coin be?"That's exactly what every murder victim says before their life ends, all because of their efforts in trying to bag a penny. Murder Mystery 2 is not your standard Roblox horror game with crappy jumpscares. It's a classic experience that many have enjoyed since its beginnings in 2014. Until now, it still remains as one of the most popular and well-liked games on Roblox.However, what happens when a series of irreversible hacks alters the game code?One day, players find that they are unable to play the game after being killed in-game. Claiming that they automatically get kicked after being killed by the murderer, they spread the news around. Others, however, don't believe this, and still risk their lives to collect coins.It is only until they experience death when they realise how much more precious their ability to continue accessing the game is as compared to collecting money.I, unfortunately, am one such victim of this precarious choice to risk it all just to collect coins. And it all ended me up in my demise...-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Disclaimer: All of the events and characters in this oneshot are fictional. None of the "hacking" occurrences are real, and are not meant to be taken seriously. Enjoy this short story.[[Word Count: 500-600 words]]…
