Hey Avo, Awesome Stories! Great Job!

Postby Avo » September 11th, 2011, 9:15 am

A/N I decided, I will try to write short stories. I have tried this before, but only focused on one member and tried to have the stories connect to each other eventually. Well, that won't happen.

I will make short stories about simple Runouwian life on the forums. They won't be too long, so it would be easier to write.

I hope you can enjoy them! Happy reading!


The Fortress of Awesome

Part 1

''So, you ever heard of it?'' Said Avo as he took a drink of his coffee.

''Heard of what?'' Cali, a new member of Runouw.com, replied.

Avo straightened his posture and began to explain.

''The Fortress of Awesome. It's quite....well, awesome, so to speak. It's a sacred place that only certain members can access.''

Cali looked interested, she rested her chin of her hand.

''I've never heard of a place like that.'' She said.

''Well, I'm not surprised, you joined, what, 20 minutes, ago?'' Avo said.

''That is true, it took me 18 minutes to find this place, 20 seconds to order a drink, 10 seconds to find a seat. And then it took exactly a minute and a half for you to notice me, fix your hair and sit down in front of me.''

The two of them shared a laugh and continued to drink their coffee.

''Demonik's Tavern is a great place. It's THE hang out spot for cool people.'' Avo explained.

''Cool people, eh?'' Cali paused to think. ''Then why are you here?''

Everyone in the tavern started to laugh, it seems what Cali said echoed across the bar.

''Hey Avo, you sure caught a funny one there!'' Chau jokingly said. He picked up his cards and yelled ''STRAIGHT! EAT THAT SUCKERS!''

Four raised an eyebrow and said:

''Really? And I thought you went that way.''

The whole table started to roar with laughter as Chau put down his cards and slowly started to grin.

''Good one Four, you're on a roll today.'' Chau replied, trying to fight back the urge to punch Four straight in his face.

''You'll see that a lot around here.'' Avo said, looking back at Cali.

''I should be thankful. I already made a friend here due to my looks, I assume that's why you came over here to talk to me so quickly.''

Avo started to blush but tried to hide it, but his face was redder than the planet of Mars. He hid his face poorly behind his coffee mug.

Cali giggled a bit, and said: ''Continue your story, please. I'm quite eager to know about this so called ''Fortress of Awesome.''

''Oh yeah!'' Avo took a deep breath and begin to explain again.

''The only way to gain access to it, is to get permission from big guns upstairs, as I like to call him.''

''Big guns?''

''Suyo. You need to talk to him about it. It's the only way. There used to be other rules, but things have changed.''

Avo leaned his chair back and rested both his feet on the table, Cali looked confused and uncomfortable, she continued to drink her coffee. She looked around the bustling tavern. People were everywhere. The strong stench of beer mixed with the bathroom stench, which could be smelled from a mile away, made her a little woozy and light-headed.

Avo brought his feet to the floor and asked:

''You know, I never got your name. I'm Avo, Avolerators in full but everyone tends to call be Avo.''

''My name's Cali.'' She replied. She didn't say anything else. Like what her full name was.

The table went silent for a moment or two. Cali continued to drink her coffee while Avo was completely out.

He tried to break the chilling silence by bringing up the past subject:

''So...you still interested in the Fortress of Awesome?''

''Quite possibly.'' She replied.

''Well, I can tell you much more. And maybe take you to Suyo.''

Cali looked up at the ceiling. She turned around, facing Avo.

''Tell me everything you got, Virgin.'' She said with a big grin.

The tavern, once again, burst into laughter. Avo was confused for a second, but then quickly realized.

''Wait, how do you know about that?'' He asked.

''Things get around quickly.'' She started to laugh with the rest of the tavern.

Avo started to blush again. He tried to hide it, but didn't do a good job.

''OK ALRIGHT! Let's just hurry up go to Suyo.'' Avo said as he walked out of the laughing tavern. Cali quickly followed suit. Still laughing her ♥♥♥ off.

So that's Part 1 of this short story. Since it's a short story. I'll be able to get it done quickly. Expect it to be done this week. And other stories will be sure to come. Be sure to tell me what I can improve on. And such and such. So yeah. TANKS FER REEDIN

Part 2

*KNOCK* *KNOCK* *KNOCK*

''Enter!''

Suyo was sitting in his office chair relaxed. With hardly anything to do, he usually sleeps the whole day through.

''Ah, Avo, what can I do for you?'' He said.

''...Well, you're quite happy today aren't you?'' Avo procalimed.

If you knew Suyo, he's not usually like this. Usually he let's people ask him for help, he doesn't exactly ''sense'' it. You know what I mean? And he usually isn't this peppy. So he must be in a good mood. Strange...

''I'm always happy! What are you talking about?'' Suyo replied.

''Did you do something epic in Super Meat Boy or programmed something awesome?''

''Hmm, nope! Just feeling happy!''

Avo raised an eyebrow in confusion. Cali was standing right behind him listening in on the weird conversation.

She stepped in and got to the point.

''Mister Suyo, I assume?''

''Hmm, you must be the newbie. The one that doesn't have Mario or random numbers in her name. What can I do for you?'' Suyo answered.

Cali quickly explained about wanting in on the FoA, she finished in two or minutes.

Suyo sat back and thought to himself. Letting a new member in the FoA? One that hasn't been around for even a day? Blasphemy! MADNESS!

''HEY NARRATORHOLE! NO 300 REFERENCES!'' Avo yelled.

Oh sorry. But yeah, back to the story.

''Well, that's something I'll have to think about for a long period of time.'' Suyo said, spinning around in his blue office chair.

Avo lifted a finger.

''You're not gonna spend two hours playin' BIT.TRIP or something and spend 2 minutes thinking about it, then tell us you spent 2 hours thinking it through, will you?''

Suyo hesitated and stuttered: ''N-nooooo...''

Suyo looked back at the window, giggling like a little school girl.

''Boy, I don't know what magical pixie crawled up your ♥♥♥ but you should probably ♥♥♥♥ it out soon, you're starting to creep me the hell out.'' Avo said.

''Heh, I'll get back to you two as soon as you can.'' Suyo uttered.

Cali smiled and walked out the room, Avo stood there with a confused look glued on his face.

''Wait, what the hell is this doing glued on my face, dammit! NARRATOR! QUIT EXPLAINING THINGS IN WEIRD DETAIL!'' Avo yelled in anger.

Oops, once again, sorry.

Well anyway! BACK TO THE STORY! But before we do, Suyo has something to say.

''Hey Avo, before you leave, you wanna know why I'm so happy?''

''YES TELL ME DAMMIT!'' Avo said in even more anger.

Suyo spun around a couple times more in his office chair. He stood up, took a deep breath, and belched. Like, seriously. He belched. The nerve of that guy! But it was loud, too! It lasted for about 10 seconds, and all of Runouw City heard it, hell, I think it woke up people in France.

''...Um...'' Avo could smell the wretched stench of the burp as it floated through the room. He felt like he was about to faint.

''Impressive, eh? I have been holding that in all day long!'' Suyo said with pride.

"...Was that it? That's why you're happy?"

''Oh, no. I left a note on your front door, have fun, kthxbai and thanks for coming out of the clos--I MEAN, have a nice day.''

Avo cursed under his breath as he left the room, the stench was still floating around the room and managed to get into the hallway. He met with Cali at the front door of the building.

''What took you so long?'' Cali asked.

''Well, I had to listen to Suyo burp for 10 seconds straight. That made my freakin' afternoon.''

Cali quickly realized and remembered the loud noise coming from the top of the building. She tried to contain herself from laughing, but failed in doing so.

''Gee, I'm glad you're happy!'' Avo exclaimed. ''He also said that he left a note on my front door.''

''I guess we have to wait then. Let's go back to the tavern, maybe play a card game or something.''

Avo let out a big sigh.

''Yeah fine, I guess just to waste time.''

And the two of them walked over to the bustling tavern, full of drinks, card games and people just waiting to release their virgin jokes.

''SHUT UP, DON'T JINX IT!'' Avo shouted.

Oh, sorry.

PART TWO PEEPS! Sorry if it seemed a bit forced on the humour. I hope you still enjoy it!

That's funny. XD

I loved it. One error in grammar which I'm too lazy to copypasta. I'm that lazy right now.

I really liked the personification, but I really would've liked a bit more description and not just dialogue. But the dialogue was amazing.

9.25/10

More xD you got pwned like three times by your own story characters.
The risk you run when putting yourself into a story as a character.
I see no grammar error :/
It is hilarious though. "STRAIGHT! EAT THAT, SUCKAHS" would work pretty well also. (Comma and the fact that he's not saying every word perfectly.)
I actually have my characters butcher some words on purpose (for teens probably becomes pro'lly, that sort of thing. just something that adds some individuality to characters.)
(As a side not, can you read mine? took me like two hours to copy from my text drafts into the post box on my internet browser on my phone. I consider it good because it's really serious, but it's got an epic story (the most epic part hasn't started yet though)

Just drop by the chat sometime RokStar, there's always people there to talk with. And a lot more people will get to know you, too. :D

But, while I'm here, why not drop a review?

Just so you know, Avo, I think this is one of my favorite pieces from you. It's snappy, witty, and overall heartwarming. I have to agree with SMIC on this one, though. While the dialogue was great, the description was... lacking. Still, I'd love to see a next part, to see where you end up with this. Also, way to take one for the team, several times. I laughed, mostly at how you made yourself the butt of all the jokes. :p Keep it up, Avo. 8.5/10, just because of the scarcity of the scene.

I may read this later. But just browsing through... I find it hilarious that you have to create a girlfriend for yourself here. 60 year old virgin, indeed. :troll:
