Making First Move Novels & Stories

Adeline exchanged glances with Loud and Jinx, and they both have confident looks in their eyes. She's not scared though... She trusts Madden that much. She turned to the other side to look at Sin and Trixie, then Andrei and Kimberly. They're all gallant behind Igor, and when her eyes met with Kimberly's, she looked away immediately. Mercy started the game, moving her first stone on the board then waited for Madden to move his own. Adeline watched keenly as Madden's eyes ran through the board before settling on one stone He touched the stone with two fingers and was about to move it when Adeline noticed something under the table.

In front of him was a massive chessboard with many metallic pieces. This must be one of the mechanisms. "Wow, really? You could at least say whether winning or losing lets you pass," Alexander muttered helplessly. Seeing that the red general's position was empty, Alexander lightly tapped his foot and leaped onto the general's spot. Clack, clack! The mechanism activated, and the entire chessboard came to life. "Cannon..." Alexander was about to make his first move when the pawns on both sides charged toward him at lightning speed. Boom!

I was the victim, not her. At least she’d given me a heads-up. Marcus was coming for me. I needed to be prepared for when he did. And the best way to do this was to get ahead of him. I needed to make the first move, before he did anything drastic. I wasn’t going to sit there and allow him have the upper hand. It was like a game of chess, where everyone knew that the winning chances were higher if you were white, because you got to start first. I needed to make the first move, and strike him where it hurts. I wasn’t just going to sit here and lick my wounds. Grabbing my phone, I quickly scrolled through my phone until I landed on the person I was looking for. I muttered a silent prayer before

She furrows her brows and looks at him “I’m not sure, but it seems that Sammy always starts with the same three moves, and Fi seems to always start in a defensive position…” She tilts her head slightly “Not sure if there’s a question there... Just an observation.” Nate turns and watches more closely. A minute later he realises that Celine was right. Sammy had a predictable opening series of moves and Fi was starting with most of her weight over her back foot, as if ready to back up. He looks at Celine,

The First One sat on the beach and stared at the violent waves of the ocean as he deliberated. The killings had stopped but not for long. Officer Muhammad and Maryam must die in order to protect his real identity. The trip to Lagos had been taken for the main purpose of relaxing and approaching matters from a psychological point because where violence fails, logic is born. It had not been easy approaching the men running things at work and asking for some few days off but the greatest weapon in The First One arsenal was the power of persuasion.

Staring at the troops of ten black pawns lined up at the borderline of the enemy territory, Sir Rowan passed Zen three white chess pieces — the rook, a horse and a pawn. “The pawns can move two spaces forward each in this game. They can move diagonally when intercepting the enemy pawn. Your job is to prevent any pawns from reaching the baseline with only these three pieces. At the beginning of the game, you can place them anywhere you like in your territory. You need to last for ten moves.” A simulation event!

“ let’s see if a national level champion can beat a girl. If I win you would do I thing I ask” Aro smiled before replying “ what do I get if I win?” “the same” I replied and his smile was enough to tell me that he had agreed Soon the board was sat on table with pieces placed on their respective position. “Please ladies first” Aro said “ we are playing fair and square. Since you are white you go first” Aro looked down at the pieces and moved his first piece and after him it was my turn Even though I only had to win but that would not satisfy me

“More or less. I’ve seen you play it a lot. I ended up picking up a thing or two.” “Hoh~ then, shall we just start?” “Okay. Then I will move first.” Metil’s pieces were white, so he would make the first move. Their little game began a couple hours before the actual battle. Metil seemed to just be wasting his time until then. He didn’t know why Marlin was insisting on staying with him, but having company wasn’t so bad. This could help pass time. Otherwise, he would just be sitting around and do nothing as he waited.

“Come. We play. No mercy.” “No mercy!” Liam echoes, already cross-legged on the rug. I watch from the couch as they set up the board. My father’s fingers move with practiced ease. He doesn’t soften his tone, doesn’t simplify the rules. He treats Liam like a real opponent—and Liam loves it. “White goes first. No cheating,” my father warns. “I never cheat,” Liam replies smugly. “You just weren’t ready.” “I am always ready. You were predictable.” Liam makes his first move. My father counters without hesitation.

"Tell me, who made the first move... No, wait! Let me guess!" He puts his finger under his jaw and made a serious expression.. like he's thinking. "She did! She made the first move! Right?!" Will grunts in reply and Micah pumps his fists in the air. "Yay! I know you wouldn't be able to.... " "Micah! That's enough!" Will cuts him off.
