The long awaited snippets have arrived! Let's all celebrate guys! *cheers and waves hands in the air*
Half of you are dancing in your seat while the other half are cringing and hovering the mouse over the red X.
I finally started writing my novel, In a Flash, on March 20. All the Scene Outlining and Character Arcs have paid off.
So without further ado, I present: The Snippets!!!!!!!!!!!
“Very funny. I’m laughing really hard.” He answered flatly

"We don't need any fighting on the mission. Killing anyone won't make the job any easier." He reasoned."Who said anything about killing? I was just going to maim her," Hotisi teased.
Again with my wonderful Hotisi...
Ignore the really bad lighting, I didn't feel like setting up all the equipment

"You heard the man! Let's get rolling," Hora snapped. "I don't want to spend more time in here then needed!"That was no man, that was only a 17 year old irresponsible boy.
You would never believe who that was.

I spent the day editing 2687 words and making covers for all 3 books. It took me forever and I got distracted a lot.
Now that I'm out of that place, I can put my plan to action. I could finally give back to Japan and give those peasants a taste of their own medicine. Japan had only seen my nice side, not the bad side of me. I chuckled and stroked my beard at the sight of those commoners trembling when they see me.
First time writing in my Antagonist's POV! (aka, Ti-su)

I sighed and turned around. "Hotisi, I've realized that your jokes are a way to hide the fact that you're actually impressed." I crossed my arms across my chest.
My lovely Erin getting along with her lovely friend Hotisi

I was invited to a sleepover, so I didn't get much done

I walked towards the dining room while Motishu stopped to pry the arrow out of the wall of the office. “Hiraoka! Come back here!” He guesterd to the arrow lodged in the wood, “Can you explain this?”I nodded, “That happens when your office is the buffer for stray arrows.” I walked away with a smile on my face.
For some reason I love what Erin says back to Motishu. I don't know why. XD

I didn't come home till 9:45 PM, and I needed to catch up on my lack of sleep
How could these people put up with this behavior. I walked towards Motishu and looked him straight in the eye. He raised his eyebrows and looked at me. “Another person trying to defy my position? And this time it’s a women, that’s brave.”
Writing in Airi's POV! Airi is my dauntless, throw caution to the wind kind of girl.

“How are you going to be a ninja? You care too much. When you knock a man down, what do you do?” I quizzed Chou.She pondered it for a bit, “Well, I’d say sorry and probably help him up.” Hotisi groaned and Erin hit her head on the table.
Poor Chou, she never knew the real meaning of what ninja do

Hotisi clapped his hand against his chest. “You wound me Erin. I thought you enjoyed hanging out with me.”
Again it's lovely Erin with her lovely friend Hotisi. They just love hanging out together.

How am I going to find Airi if I can’t leave? My heart felt like the sheets of Airi’s bed. Torn and ripped up. Is a friendship worth the rest of my life? I asked myself. Then I knew what to do. I stood and headed for the door. I wasn’t getting sleep tonight. I had a retrieval to plan for.
Poor Erin, I literally felt so bad for her writing this part. But man, is she loyal or what?
I was glad that it was Hotisi and not some half-crazed bounty hunter. But I was never going to admit it. Not yet at least.“I thought you were some half-crazed bounty hunter.” He admitted, “Why is there blood all over your face?”
They always say great minds think alike. And is that Erin and Hotisi together? And does Hotisi sound concerned?
"You can be the knight in shining armor who as sword skills. Wait, last time you dropped the sword and cut open your leg. I'll be the knight."
I love Erin's quick wit and humor. Writing her POV again!!!

I was almost falling asleep during Motishu's talk about the emperor’s. Airi was asking why we were learning about them if we were always attacking and attempting to assassinate them. He got steaming mad and sent her out of the class. That was the only time I was jealous of a women.
Hotisi is jealous of a women! It may seem mean to women, but back then women weren't allowed to be ninja.
I know I wrote for over 12 days, but I didn't write everyday. I'm not allowed on electronics on Sundays (expect my camera) so that rules out a lot of writing time. And I have Trying To Trust to work on, I upload a video on my YouTube channel every week, and I have school to go to everyday.
It's hard to take time out of my day to write. And I'm probably dying of sleep loss.
The only time to write is at night, so I stay up till 12 or 1 in the morning writing.
He trembled and shook his head. Saeru pushed the hovering fist away from his face. A crow cawed beside me and a dog growled down the road. "Exactly. Now get out of here before I hurt you. I'm trained to kill and can think of 20 ways to injure you with my fist. So go away and stay away." I threatened.
This is Erin having fun with an old friend.
And now that school started again, I wake up at 5:50 AM everyday to get on the bus. So I'm going to dead tired the next day. I don't recommend staying up late to write.
“Oh. And are you two engaged or something?” I blushed and Erin’s cheeks turned red.
People think Erin and Hotisi are in love??? Could they???
"Or it finally happened." A smile broke across the men's faces. "A toast." They lifted their cups and tapped them together. "To us and the great future ahead."They took a sip as a scream rang out from inside the room.
I really like how this scene came out. I think it shows some foreshadowing, which I suck at.
"I wasn’t just going to let you die. I'll always save you if I'm given a chance." His bright his twinkled with concern.I felt my heart melt with those words.
Itsn't that so sweet???? Hotisi and Erin together.
That was the last of the snippets. You're safe and can come out of hiding now.
That was the recap of my 11 writing days.
I hope you enjoyed this post full of snippets and other things you probably don't care about.
Are you doing Camp Nano this April? Are you in a cabin? Did you enjoy these snippets and want more?
