My Fanfiction Sneak Peeks!

It's been a long time coming. But I have been working pretty hard in my free time on the next chapters for both my pokemon fanfictions. The Blind Alley (TBA) has been a very sizable update with over twelve pages so far and still a moderate amount left to tell in the chapter. And Ashes too is coming along at a very modest six. I am about at the halfway point in Ashes, and on the last leg of TBA's chapter. That being said, let me offer some sneak peeks at how the chapter is progressing. 

First, I'll start with The Blind Alley: 

But wasn’t it all invented? Could nightmare attacks really do that?
So lost within, Ash didn’t notice the person before him until they had collided. Ash was thrown back. He scrambled, readying to flee until he saw who it was.
But-
But that wasn’t possible-
“Gar-”
Ash had barely managed to take a breath before Gary had Ash by the collar and slammed him hard against the opposite wall. His grip was powerful; fingers crushing into Ash’s throat. Ash was absolutely mesmerized by the look on his dead friend’s face. It was one of fury.
“You b*****d!” Gary shouted, the force of his voice only rivaled by the death grip he had about Ash’s shirt. Fingers itching, Ash was increasingly suspecting, to wrap about his throat. “You f***ing murderer!”
“Gary, I-”
“No. No, don’t to say anything to defend yourself, you f**king souless... murdering b*****d,” There were tears in his eyes now. He readjusted his grip, fastening both hands around Ash’s neck. And for some reason, Ash couldn’t resist. He gasped and pawed at the hands tightening, but he couldn’t bring himself to fight back. Not against Gary. Not when he had just found Gary alive again.

-The Blind Alley: Chapter 19

I apologize for the language. In the chapter, these words will not be censored. But for the sake of the sneak peek, I thought it was best to censor them. You know, just to be one the safe side. 

And now for our sneak peek of Ashes. 

Satoshi continued his slow progress down the wall. It wasn’t as easy as he had hoped. This wasn’t exactly something he had learned before; climbing and rappelling down walls. For what use could that be to a Crown Prince. Princes led front lines; they didn’t scramble over battlements like common soldiers. And they certainly didn’t try to escape their own castles by such means.
Satoshi knew the basic principle of the thing. He had watched the soldiers do their drills. You used your arm strength to help hold your legs in position to, essentially, walk up the wall. Satoshi assumed you would do the same to go back down, except backwards. Except…. his legs didn’t want to move. He was just stuck hanging a few heads down from the parapet, with Bulbasaur’s face still peeking down at him. He had his legs against the wall and his hands tight about the rope. But he couldn’t manage the move down. He was sure that any movement would cause his boots to lose their grip on the wall. How was he supposed to do this thing?
Perhaps if he just gave himself a little bouncing start. He had watched the soldiers do something similar, hadn’t he? It wasn’t so much a walk backwards as it was like a collection of controlled leaps. They’d push off the wall, slide down, and then push off again. Satoshi would just have to attempt the same.
So he gave a stuttering push off and loosened his grip on the rope. He slid far and fast; faster than he had intended. Satoshi tried to catch himself but he had waited too long. His boots slid off the wall like ice and the rope tore at the flesh of his hands, still he tried to stop, tightening his grip on the rope that burned like fire. The sudden motion swung him like a hangman. Gravity flung him sharply backwards sending the rope flying out of his fluttering grasp.
People had always told him that death had a way of bringing back everything. Satoshi assumed that he had relieved his whole life when he tumbled down the staircase. He had gotten a chance to know himself twice before he lost everything. And Satoshi would have supposed he’d get something now too. But everything happened too fast.

I hope you enjoyed my sneak peeks. I am hoping to get one of these chapters up in the coming week or so. Here's hoping my writing momentum stays strong and I can get these out to you guys. It only took me, what? Several years?

I'm really sorry about that btw.
