《Sirens in Seattle》Epilogue
Advertisement
I stood at the cemetery with my head down and tears slowly streaming down my face as Phoenix's father takes about the fallen officer.
I gripped his little brother's hand tightly in my left hand and another one that I was holding onto for support on my right.
My chest was painfully restricting as I tried to hold back my sobs that were begging me to let them out.
Evertime Sheriff Adams voice choked up a little, I became closer and closer to breaking down and I was debating whether or not I should excuse myself.
Just as I felt that it was going to become too much, a strong arm wrapped tightly around my shoulders, and I finally began to let go of my sadness for the situation.
"Its ok." Phoenix whispered into my ear, his voice hoarse as he held back his own wall of tears.
His arms alone were enough to remind me of the painful day that so much was lost.
I watched heartbroken as they lowered Gio's casket into the ground and his wife cried heartbrokenly on the side letting out a series of "whys"
The night I almost lost Phoenix is the night heaven gained Gio or his real name as I should say Grant, as an angel.
His soul was too great to be any place els.
When he arrived on the scene and seen Nix bleeding out, he rushed to find the man who did it, and was horribly shot in the chest by the same man.
Sadly after long hours of operation , alongside Phoenix he didn't make it, causing my heart to shatter for the man I hardly knew. The one time I met him, his vibe was one of bright radiance and I understand all of the help he offered Nix. I ultimately owe, the future of Nix's and I relationship to him.

As the service ended and we paid our respects, Nix and I held hands tightly as we slowly made our way to my car, my large sunglasses blocking out the sun that would of been painful to my sore eyes. Our steps were slow and I let him lean most of his weight on me.
He stopped a few feet short and I looked at him with concern.
"What's wrong?" I prompted him, caressing his wound on the outside of his shirt.
"I love you Amelia. I love you with all my heart and I swear, I'll never do anything to loose you again I swear it." He said desperately gripping the hand that once lightly touched his wound.
"I love you." I breathed out, pulling him close into a tight hug, that I would never let go of.
We got through it and we always will.

46 Year Old Syndrome
The daily Litrpg journal of a fairly average 46 year old man in a world where hundreds of thousands of people suddenly have a super power.Follow him as he learns skills, runs away a lot, suffers crippling headaches, avoids reading his titles, and tries to avoid breaking his body that didn't get enough calcium and vegetables.[Disclaimer 1: Despite the following, I will fix any typos pointed out. This is a writing exercise so chapters are mostly first drafts, otherwise I'd end up rewriting each chapter for a month or more with no real changes. My goals are a steady output by not using perfectionism as a procrastination method. I've already got laziness and additions to reading/games, I don't need a 3rd reason to procrastinate.][Disclaimer 2: The main character is a more normalized version of me, with 170% less laziness installed, and a few buffs like greater courage. Other things like having a job are partially similar. No other characters are based on real people because most people I know are either too normal to be useful or too fucked in the head to be believable.]

Draugr Cell //Layer 01-- Investiture:
With the end of the only war to ever reach mainland Australia I found myself living out of a small room in an old military compound that had been handed over to the jurisdiction of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The end of the war, unfortunately, didn't mean the end of hostilities. The terrorism trend that had started back in the early 2000's with the attack on the world trade center over in America, had spread to just about every country on the face of the planet. Over time the constant threat from various groups meant the civilian police force was quickly undermanned, under equipped, and overwhelmed. They were simply unable to respond to the daily threats in any reasonable time frame, and in many situations lacked the both the skills and equipment required to deal with the threats to put them down in a 'safe' and expedient manner. Veterans of the war that were being reintegrated into society however, were just about everywhere, all the time. We have the training and the skills required to deal with just about any threat you care to mention, all we needed was access to the equipment to do so. In a world first, under the new Veterans program, the Australian government had taken the rather controversial step of allowing specifically selected veterans to go armed in public. Sure, with Australian weapons laws being very, very strict there were a number of hurdles to get over first, but that's where the selection part comes in. Tangentially that's actually how I met Brianna, my current partner. We work as ringers in Victory City, I thought being thrown into imptomtu combat operations and risking my life on a daily basis for barely livable wages was excitement enough. Then I met her... it... I don't know. An AI unlike anything else out there has wedged itself into my life and decided it needs to... look after me. What could possibly go wrong? **** This is the first book I have released, and my first entry into a cyberpunk universe. There is minimal drug use, a fair amount of sex, a bit of gory violence, and a sultry AI that has decided the main character needs a harem.

Genesis
Taryn is a mutant in a world where mutants are considered no more than monsters in human skin. The descendants of the gods rule as mortal Kings and the entire world waits for their fates to be decided in the prophesied battle between the Last Lothor King and the mutants’ Dark Prince. But Taryn believes this is all fantasy, born from legends and myth. There are no gods; only mutants who don’t know how to use their abilities, and middlings who are too afraid to even think that they should learn. Taryn is determined to change that.Her plan is a simple one: win the King to her cause and the faiths of the masses will compel them to follow. It should have been an easy enough task; the King doesn’t seem to believe in the prophecies any more than she does. But soon the ambitions of a criminal empire, the plots of warmongering officials and the looming threat of a violent faith movement begin to erode their fragile relationship and derail her plans.Can the two of them reconcile in time to prevent a civil war or will their inability to work together bring about the very thing they’ve fought so hard to avoid?
