"So this is a question for you, Normani. How is this film different from when you started acting and what you were used to?" The interviewer asked me, causing Minho to pass the mic over to me.
"Well... when i first started out acting... i was completely unaware of how good you have to be... like acting isn't just remembering lines off of a piece of paper... it's about feeling, and having the ability to make others feel what you feel. "The Bodyguard" is a whole nother level to what I'm used to. Usually I'm casted for romantic and dramatic movies so changing to a whole unfamiliar genre for me was a little difficult but lucky I had such an amazing co-star and great staff to help me.... So yeah" I answered honestly looking at the interviewer who nodded at my response.
She turns to minho, "and this one is for you... what was it like working for Normani?" I pass the mic back to him watching as he smiles at me, causing me to smile back waiting for his response.
"Well when i first found out i had gotten the role, i was quite excited because believe it or not I've been a fan of her for a while before she even arrived in korea. But working with her... i can say there wasn't a day on set where i wasn't either smiling or laughing because of her. She just has that personality where it makes you happy for no reason...." he trails off looking over to me causing me to smile at him.
"And you, Normani?"
MInho hands me back the mic, "having a co-star whose so experienced and well known made me very nervous when we first started filming, to be honest. Like when my manager told me I was going to his co-star, I was like "boys over flowers? Hunters? Legends.... Him? You're telling me I'm going to be in a movie with thee Lee Minho.. It was like i was fangirling... but working with him couldn't have gone any better. He's such an amazing person to be around, he's crazy talented and I couldn't have asked for a better co-star" I say avoiding eye contact with him. I already knew he was looking at me, so i didn't want to make it seem like we had something going on when we didn't.
"So these questions are going to be from the fans, now. We're going to take turns" I watch as the interviewer motions someone to bring another mic out, and moments later both minho had gotten a mic.
Minho and I both nodded, understanding the interviewer. "Minho, what's your favorite scene in the movie and why?"
"I have too many favorites.. But one I would consider taking the top would be the scene when we're in Canada." MInho answers caused me to gasp, remembering Canada and how beautiful all the sites were. We filmed on Prince Edward Island Beach and the scenery was to die for.

"The beaches in Canada are amazing. If there was one beach i could only go to for the rest of my life it'd be that exact beach in canada" Minho answers causing the interviewer to laugh.
"Ok. Normani. What was the most difficult scene to film and why?"
I sigh already having an answer for this, "easy, all of the action scenes, with stunts or anything that has to do with me.... Moving ''I answer shamelessly, causing minho to laugh.
I continue, "no.. like seriously... Even though I'm a singer and I dance almost all of the time.. You think I'd be used to constantly moving and exercising.. And dieting and eating healthy to stay in shape... I'm not...i don't know if it's just me but I love to eat.... Like if i wasn't filming or rehearsing for a scene i was eating.... Which was bad because there were so many scenes where I had to do my own stunts... but before this movie i didn't know to roundhouse kick someone or fight off three bad guys with just my fist.. So i would have to train and god the training was...i.. I mean i would have to jump from a 17 story building and even though there was matting and wires it would literally take me ten takes to get it right... so it was very difficult, not only for me but the staff and the other actors as well" I explain, causing laughter in the room even those of the camera.
"But luckily it didn't take her that long to get used to thr stunts. It may have been very hard for mani, but she adapted to it quickly. So I have to get her props for that" Minho claps for me causing me to nudge him.
"I also noticed a lot of chemistry between you guys on and off screen, did either of you think that would be a problem with having a large gap for the age difference?"
Minho motions for me to speak first, "honestly, no. Even though he's 32.. I don't think of him as an old fossil because he's 9 years older than me." I answered.
"I agree. She may be 23, but she's very mature for her age. And we have the type of relationship where our ages don't matter... I consider her like a childhood friend.... A young childhood friend" he answers.
Eventually the interview came to end and i was finally allowed the rest of the day off, lord knows i deserved it.
For the 5 weeks, I've been promoting the movie, constantly in interviews, or doing photo shoots. I haven't been able to spend time with the boys because they themselves have been so busy with promoting the album.
Joon and I were together and it honestly felt better than when we first started. Him and I have grown and matured, we know what we want, we have communication and trust and that's why I feel like we were meant for each other.

I also finally moved into my own apartment, so no more hotels and that whole dorm situation.
Tonight, I invited the members to have dinner with me, realizing we haven't seen each other in a while, having dinner game night would be the best for all of us.
They also never went to my house, so showing them around would be amazing.
The doorbell rang pulling me out of my thoughts causing me to smile and approach the door, I looked at the alarm system turning to see who was at the door.
It was joon. I unlocked and opened the door letting him in, and he smiled looking at me.
"Hey," I say, inviting him.
He enters smiling ear to ear before leaning down and kissing me, I break the kiss pulling away before shutting the door. I looked down noticing he was holding two bags, I helped him by grabbing one.
"Yoongi and Hobi are like 15 minutes away" he tells me.
"Jimin, Jin, Tae and Kook are riding together, don't know how far they are but they should be here before 8"
He nods understanding, "come let me show you around" I tell him more excited then anything.
I turn around walking him towards the kitchen as soon as we enter he shows his reaction.
"wow" I hear him say as he placed the bag down. I smile at his response, "this is the kitchen" I tell him smiling.
He walks around the kitchen before turning to see the large family dining room. He looks around before turning back to me, "where's the fridge?" He asks in confusion.
This has to be my favorite part about the kitchen, "follow me" I tell him smiling ear to ear before walking towards the two large cabinet, I opened the door and be hold there was a built in fridge and freezer.
"I'm most definitely sleeping over here more often" he jokes causing me to smile.
I ended up showing him more than expected, I was like a child showing him my toys. I showed him the living room, my large backyard, the guest room and here was my favorite part though the whole house.
I opened the double doors to my room, "and this is where the magic happens" I tell him causing him to eyes me.
"Where the magic will happen" I corrected myself earning a smile at him. He turns to me pulling my waist closer towards his, "speaking of magic....." he trails off as his hands start to roam my body.
I wrapped my arms around his neck smirking at how eager he was, "didn't you just say they were fifteen minutes away?" I ask him.
"That's all the time I need" he smiles before leaning in to kiss me when the door bell stops him. He groans, causing me to smile at him.
"Later"
I walk towards the door with Joon following behind me, I open the door to see Jimin, Tae, Jin, JungKook, somehow Yoongi and Hobi were also with them.
"Took you guys look enough" Joon shouts from behind me.
"We're sorry! We just thought you two would've wanted some alone time before we got here" Jimin jokes causing me to roll my eyes.
After dinner we decided to have a game night playing uno. That was there mistake right there knowing I was the queen at this shit.
"Joon, draw 4... the color is blue" Hoseok says, I eyed the members and how many cards that had left.
"Stop looking at my cards!" JungKook shouted to Yoongi who held a evil grin on his face.
"Mani... your go" Jimin told me. I inhaled and exhaled softly, "I'm sorry I have to do this to you boys.... it's not personal, it's business" I let him know before quickly putting down my entire deck.
"Skip you, Skip you, Skip you, Skip you, Skip you, Skip you, Skip you, change the color to red, since I have two ones in red.. uno, uno out" I smiled widely watching all of them look at me.
"What!?!" Jin shouted at me.
"You cheated!" Tae raises his voice at me.
"You can't cheat in uno" I stuck my tongue out at him before laughing.
"This game was boring anyway" Yoongi states before tossing down his cards.
"Oh come on you guys.... admit I won fair and square" I say.
"I call a rematch!" Jimin shouts.
"Yeah yeah.. snack break. Any of you want anything?" Jin asks getting up from the table.
"I do.!!" JungKook says joining him. I couldn't help but notice a pair of eyes staring me down causing me to turn to Joon who was fixated on me.
"What?" I whisper trying not to grab attention from the other members who sat around us.
He leans in and whispers, "as soon as they live.... that ass is mine" he lets me know causing me to turn and look at him in shock.
"Can you guys get a room" Yoongi says before tossing a card at Joon.
"I think it's good that you guys finally made up... I was tired of you guys breaking up and getting back together... it's annoying" Taehyung confess.
"It's called Love. Something you wouldn't know about" Jimin defends both Joon and I.
I was about to say something when the door bell rings, "you expecting someone else?" Joon asks me.
I arch my brows in confusion, I shook my head as Jin and JungKook came back to the table with drinks and snacks.
"Was that the door?"
"Yeah. I'll be back. You guys better not start without me" I tell them seriously. I walk to the door unaware of the situation that about to arrive, just when I thought everything was perfect.
I unlocked the door without looking at the screen to see who it was, which was stupid.
"Bam?"
"hi.....Can we walk?"

Elder Cultivator
Anton is a great-grandfather. He is living quite a happy life, despite his advanced age and declining health… until a group of cultivator bandits moves into the area. The nearby guardians of the area, the Order of Ninety-Nine Stars, are unable to track them down as they continue to ravage nearby towns. During one desperate winter Anton is out on a hunt when his family- his entire village- is killed or taken as slaves by the bandits. He lacks the strength to fight them, and he wasn’t even present for their arrival to die with his loved ones. At the pit of his despair, he wonders if he ever had any chance to change things. What could he even do? He cannot even pull his best bow, and his eyesight is failing. If he had been a cultivator… perhaps there might have been a chance, but he was decades- perhaps even most of his life- too late. Notes on cultivation levels: There are five general stages of cultivation, though the fifth is extremely rare. Each cultivation style might have their own name for the stages. 1. Body Tempering 2. Spirit Building/ occasionally System Creation (Ninety-Nine Stars) 3. Constellation Formation (Ninety-Nine Stars) 4. Life Transformation/Galaxy Construction (Ninety-Nine Stars) 5.

Dying from the hands of the Faerie Queen, Herebia was expected to remain as a 'Halazar', a soul whose destiny was to eternally wander 'Sabbath' as fury and rage will be the only thing they will ever know. What surprised her though was that, the True God of Light sent a Celestial Dragon to personally fetch her. She was directly sent to 'Divas', which was the God's abode. She finds out that in order to pay for her sins, she must sleep for an entire millenia (1000 years) and must do a task that the True God of Light would give to her after she wakes up. Herebia slept for a thousand years as the world she once walked experienced drastic changes. The Faerie Kingdom was no more, the Drazian Kingdom was no more, and the Four Bloodlines was apparently greatly weakened... As her awakening came near, the Realm of Exaltia which has experienced a long time of peace due to the Four Great Syllabus Kingdoms, would be shaken up and experience many wars and bloodshed.... Why? For the empress shall awaken again... ----- Will be posting 1 chapter a week at Sat. Expect it to be 2000-3000 words. [ It seems that my account has some issues and can't reply and comment. Have to fix this first before I could reply towards other's comments. Will be using author's notes for this purpose as a remedy though.]
