Chapter 13, Gymnasium Search
If you love gymnastics, I'm going to find you a gymnasium, I promise.
I got home from the gym, I was laying in bed in my oversized AC/DC shirt when my landline began to ring.
I looked at the Caller ID and it was unfamiliar, I decided to take my chances and answer it.
"Arthur Residence, how may I assist you?"
I waited for the other person to say something but all I heard was silence, I was getting creeped out until something broke the silence.
"Crap, didn't know I was muted. Is this Natalie?"
I was confused, this wasn't Jayla but I wasn't about to hang up.
"This is her, whose speaking?"
I asked politely stifling my laugh, they forget to unmute themselves which had to be pretty funny.
"Javon, from the gym."
"How'd you get my number Javon, from the gym?"
He chuckled at my sentence which caused me to laugh a bit.
"Jayla, she was way too happy when I asked for it."
He answered sheepishly, I'll admit, that was so cute and nice of someone.
We continued to chat but he had hung up due to Jaden and Jayla wanting to go on a live.
I went out of my room and decided to go visit Ainsley.
"Hey, Ainsley."
I walked in and notice her doing a handstand, her room was spacious so she was able to do whatever she pleased.
She got down and hugged me tightly, I noticed she was rewatching old gymnastics videos.
"You really want to be back in the gym, don't you?"
I asked as I looked around her room, taking in all the trophies and medals she's won, she was a natural and it amazed me.
She paused her video and looked at me, she seemed to have been working out for a bit since she was sweat.

"Yeah, I miss having competitions and a coach and even a team! I mean I never spoke to them but I missed them."
Ainsley answered truthfully, I understood that, she was happy and more happier at science fairs or winning soccer games.
I looked at her and give her a soft smile, I had the perfect idea.
If you love gymnastics, I'm going to find you a gymnasium, I promise.
I kissed her forehead and left her room running into mine, turning my LEDs to blue and grabbing my laptop.
I was going to find her a gymnasium and I was going to succeed because I promised her and because I'm the best sister.
After a few hours of working on my laptops trying to find the perfect coach, team and gymnasium, my landline rung.
Seriously, I have a phone for a reason.
"Arthur Residence, Juniper's creation speaking."
I said bluntly, I wasn't trying to talk to anyone today but I couldn't sit there and let my phone ring or what if it was an emergency?
"Hey NJ."
It was Javon, his live must've ended, I took a break from my laptop and searched around to grab my glasses that I use whenever I'm going to be on my laptop for so long.
"Hey Javon, is everything alright?"
I asked patiently as I rummaged around my desk and drawers until I found them, I put them on and went back to my bed.
I continued searching and so far either one was full, shut down, sued or being arrested for a creep.
"Yeah, are you busy? I could call back later if you are."
I silently laughed, he was definitely considerate towards me.
"Nope, just searching for a gymnasium for my little sister. She's into gymnastics."

I answered as I resumed my search for a gymnasium, it was silent for a moment until Javon spoke up.
"Why don't you bring her to the gym tomorrow, I do gymnastics and my dad's my boxing coach. Maybe he can coach her?"
He asked shyly which brought a huge smile to my face, he made my job so much easier.
I obviously said yes and we began to speak about different things.
A few hours later and we had hung up due to being hungry and wanting dinner.
I walked to Ainsley's room, I knocked twice and waited for a response.
"Ainsley, get your bag ready, someone helped me find a coach for you."
I said happily to which she squealed and jumped up from her bed, she ran to me and hugged me tightly before letting go and grabbing her lavender dufflebag from Nike.
"Thank you NJ!"
She was so ecstatic that she packed in under twenty minutes, I was glad to see I brought a smile to her face.
I just hope someone else can find her a soccer team and coach, I did enough miracles for the rest of my life.

The Worldforge: Warlock Rising
Abandoned as an orphan, Mar was tested for magic by the Mages of Orelm and was found to possess immense magical potential, but when he grew old enough to start his training he found he was unable to cast so much as a single spell! Embarrassed by their mistake, the mages threw him in the library where he read books and tutored the mage students for a bit of money. All the while, he can’t help but envy the the students who are living the life he had so eagerly awaited. But when an object of great and malevolent power promises to make good on all the promises the mages broke to him Mar is thrust into the world of magic. Mar will find that fate had something more than a life confined to the library planned for him after all. Authors Notes: I consider this to be a comming-of-age Sword and Sorcery story based mostly on the style of classic western fantasies. So if that's your thing then I encourage you to take a peek. Something I want to mention though is that the main character starts of pretty wimpy, and that might not be your thing. That being said, if you stick with him he's got a long way to grow. Also, while this version of the story is meant to be fully readable, more dicerning readers may want to wait until I move out of rough draft phase. There may be some inconsistancies with character and plot while I am still in the rough draft phase. I'm sorry for this, but this is my first web novel and from what I've read the best way to get a good novel out is to write write write, and then edit ruthlessly after you're finished with the book, so that's the plan I'm going to follow. Again, this is a rough draft. Everything you are reading is subject to change, including the name, title, and cover photo. This may no longer be the case once I've decided I know where this fiction is going and I have a reasonable understanding of the characters and their behavior. You're reading what comes off my keyboard as it's made, with very limited editing. There will be mistakes in the text. I do a quick spell check to take out the worst of the errors, but there will be some I miss. You can point them out in the comments if they are particularly confusing or glaring and I will try to fix them, however I am not overly concerned about minor errors as this is not the final draft by any means.
