jack was sick.
he was also on a plane, on his way to toronto, but he didn't want to think about that right now.
he slipped his earbuds in and put on good old-fashioned lover boy by queen, the lyrics seemingly echoing in his head as he tried to focus on the plane taking off successfully, rather than the pounding headache and stuffy nose he currently had. he closed his eyes for a moment and leaned back, only a second later feeling his mom's cold hand on his forehead.
"mom!" he whisper-yelled, opening his eyes quickly and giving her a look. angela simply shook her head and smiled softly. "poor boy. you're burning up. when's the last time you took advil?"
"an hour ago?" jack guessed, turning away from his mom and turning down his music a notch as the next song started. dancing queen by ABBA. jack felt himself smiling, and returned to daydreaming, looking out the window, and drifting off to sleep.

maybe it was the advil that made him sleepy, or the lack of sleep he had gotten the night before, but jack woke up as their plane landed. he felt a weird, almost disoriented feeling as he got off the plane, his thoughts cloudy. he had boarded the plane at 6am, or at least, it was 6am in california when he boarded. he landed in toronto, (jack checked his phone,) at 12pm. that meant it was only 9am in california. he groaned slightly, already annoyed with the jet lag he would experience later that night.
angela and jack quickly got through security and collected their bags, getting into a taxi. jack realized he was sweating and tried to roll down the window, but angela stopped him.

"no, your advil must be working. you'll sweat out your fever." she said.
"mama roo," jack replied seriously, "i don't want to show up at the hotel all sweaty."
"you'll have time to shower before we go to dinner."
jack felt his face flush, and not just from the overbearing heat. "dinner?"
"we're meeting up with the rest of the IT kids," angela looked at jack, a confused look on her face. "jennifer told me that wyatt told you."
jennifer was wyatt's mom. wyatt obviously hadn't told jack, but angela couldn't know that. she would probably ask why the two hadn't discussed the plans. the 2016 jack and wyatt would've been all over dinner details, excited to meet up.
jack just rolled his window down, giving his mom a weak smile.

Infested
One billion people from one hundred thousand universes have been dropped onto a singular planet five times larger than Earth. In the corner of their eye were three numbers: 1,000,000,000. 15. 10. Nobody could figure out what it meant until fifteen years after the initial transportation, as out of the blue, a message repeated itself in their minds for twenty-four hours. “Only ten can return. The rest will die. There is no time limit,” Following the global message, genocides ran rampant, with established friendships broken, families ripped apart, blood alliances betrayed, and leaders felled in seconds. How? [The Evgnomon] The Beholden; hidden throughout the realm were artefacts: weapons, information, tools from beings and societies of a higher plane. It was up to the humans to scour the land and take them by hook or by crook if they ever wished to go back. Whisked into this world as a mere babe, I suppose it was lucky I didn’t die in the chaos. But as I stare into the rotten, tattered pages of the accursed book laid upon the pedestal in front of me; and the unnerving gaze of our professor trained onto the back of my head silently pressuring me to become the avatar of grotesques unspeakable and undecipherable to the human mind. O, how I wish I did...

To Burn a Kingdom
It has been centuries since Gods and Angels forsook the world of Ashaari, leaving its people Faithless and divided as Magic begins to fade. But some of their powers still remain, embedded deep in the earth as rare Gems and sometimes, in blood. Wars are waged and fought over these Gems, for what little Magic they provide. But now, a new prophecy has arisen. The Angels will return and with them, comes Magic and hysteria. - In the kingdom of Illya, Princess Arellia Virtris lives a life of opulence but she is miserable; a caged puppet whose strings are controlled by the members of her court.
