STUDENT DORM, HONG KONG POLYTECHNIC UNIVERSITY
*Alarm rings*
*Jackie tries to mute alarm*
Good morning.
I am Jackie Man, a university student in Hong Kong.
Many of you might wonder why I ended up sleepwalking at a place 11670 kilometers away, let me tell you: I have no idea...might be temporary.
For some reason, I got "teleported" to Los Angeles last night, when I was asleep.
My Mom was a paramedic of the Hong Kong Fire Services. Seeing her saving lives at Major Incidents did make a 5-year-old feel proud, and I used to tell people that "I am going to be a Paramedic when I grow up."
I forgot why I gave up, but now I am working on being a radiologist, with some (leftover) interest in paramedics.
After seeing videos of people talking about 9-1-1 Season 1, I started watching the series, sometimes even re-watching it.
The conclusion now might be "I learned how to be a paramedic just by watching 3 seasons of 9-1-1", let me tell you: I learned these skills the hard way.
In 2019, a Pro-democratic movement broke out in Hong Kong, and my First-Aid Class Teachers and classmates at St John's Ambulance, including me, became "Combat Medics" in between the Frontlines of Riot Police and Civilians in Yellow Helmets.
Oh yes. Lessons going to begin at 9:30. Gotta go now.

LAFD STATION 118, LOS ANGELES
"Hey, Jacky it's time for dinner!"
"Jacky?" that was Buck.
"Yes...I'm coming"
Gosh, did I fell asleep again... *sigh*
"Hey, great job by the way," Chimney said.
"What?" I have no idea what happened.
"Erm... Actually, that can't be you, right? I mean...from the inside..." Buck asked, and probably that's what happened.
Identity Swap.
Yes.
Identity Swap
A somehow experienced medic went into me. That probably explains what happened.
?
Hello? I'm Jackie Man 17:35
Are you Jacky Man? I was told to message you by this number... 17:35
Jacky
Yes 17:35
Its Jacky Man, LAFD Paramedic 17:35
I think...we actually got swapped 17:36
I think so...17:36
Hmm... exactly what I am thinking.
"Buck? You're right, that was really not me..."

Outer Sect Disciple
Gongsun Xianyuan, eleven years old, was a genius... or he should have been. Unfortunately when the Cultivator of the Wudang sect came to the village he found out that he had a rare condition that prevented him to cultivate in the arts of the sect. He didn't give up right away but in the end he had to resign himself to the truth. At first he despaired but he soon choose to let his dreams go and begin a new life. This is the tale of an untalented cultivator who had given up in his dreams of glory to live a normal life. How will his future unfold? ------------------------- My native language is neither English nor Chinese, I am writing a Xianxia novel because I like the genre. I have tried to maintain the chinese names and the form of address but I used the measurements of the international system(meters, grams, etc..) and the hour time(no incense stick, or others). It may spoil it for some but I think it would be easier both for me and the readers. Before you read keep in mind that this is a novel with a slow progress. I don't want to give any spoiler but at least a few chapters will be dedicated to his life in the village.

Transmigration Retiree
"What's that you say? I can never leave this reality ever? Good!" Ed, was a normal man in a world full of superheroes, so he didn't really have too many complaints when that first truck fell on him. After all he'd read enough comics to know that sometimes things just happen. Besides he'd been getting on in years when it happened, and his life till then, though lonely, had more or less been fully lived. The second time around when that one guy pushed him off a cliff for a chalice of immortal ambrosia, wasn't so cool though, and then there was that third time when he was just getting used to life as a lady, and that crazy goddess showed up out of nowhere and started ranting about purging the demon menace....then some other stuff happened and he briefly got to go back to earth before falling into a coma where he adventured in the world of dreams. Then the aliens came, and the dream ended and he was suddenly stuck being the AI Overmind for the whole damn star systm. The aliens died, and because he was all mechanical and what-not he just kind of had to keep on going. Forced to continue collecting the materials and data from countless worlds that were destoryed in the process. Then there was that whole war with the gods business that followed...mostly because of all that world destroying he did because of some fairly faulty programming. Anyway, thankfully someone pulled a "rocks fall" on that whole curfuffle, because by the time he was in control of himself again, things had long gotten out of hand. Now the powers-that-be tell him that he must spend the rest of his existence in single lonely section of the cosmos. Trapped in a single portion of a single universe. And now he weeps...No worries though, these are tears of joy. Hopefully this final unending existence he's been given will be the quiet life he's been looking for. A Man who's seen everything gets abducted by aliens and is converted into an AI that sits at the helm of a fleet of alien ships and behind the computer systems for most their planets. This Alien AI goes to war with the gods and ends up nearly destroying an entire reality. The Angels condemn the troublemaking AI to life as normal child on a far off world....All truth said, the "AI" couldn't be happier. His life's been far too interesting(read: Scary, Inconvenient and Painful) in his opinion and he could do with a bit of normalcy.

Grim Beginnings
For most, ghosts and monsters were fantasy. For Tessa Byrne-Reyes, they were a constant in her daily life as a reaper. The legendary gods and creatures of mythology were, to her, historical figures. From a young age, she carried the weight of the world on her shoulders, possessing what she saw as a curse but what her family considered a gift. It was her birthright, to use her abilities to guide the deceased to the afterlife of an eternity in peace or in torment. Her classmates viewed her as "the fainting girl" who would pass out in the middle of a lesson with inexplicable injuries. She experienced each death in the town of Belmont Falls, from the mundane to the gruesome. A gunshot wound in the gut, broken ribs, her heart ceasing to beat for several minutes. No one understood what caused these incidents but over the years, she gained a reputation for being abnormal. While Tessa is the freak of Belmont Falls, Fin Belmont, the charming rebel and son of the richest man in town, is her polar opposite. Knowing each other for years but never saying more than a dozen words between them, one night changes everything, thrusting them into each other's unfamiliar and daunting worlds. Together, with the help of her best friend/his ex-girlfriend Elena, they begin to unravel secrets about their town and their pasts, learning that some secrets are better left buried and grudges can be held for centuries.
