Bad Gut Feelings
I thought this would last longer but it went by fast, keep in touch with me. I felt like I was appreciated here, just how I was at home.
~ Natalie James's POV ~
It was our last week together on the Euphoria set, I wanted to cry.
I had so much fun with these people that I forgot it was just for a limited time only, I got the guy of my dreams and I have amazing friends.
I sat down on my bed after packing everything up and took out some loose leaf papers.
I grabbed my glitter pen pack and began to write thank you letters to everyone on set, cast and crew because they helped me a lot.
My eyes began to water, I really didn't want to leave.
It was already night when I had finished writing the letters, I put them neatly in a folder that would be given the day we all leave.
I was ready to come back home and see my siblings again, it's been a while and I miss them like crazy.
After I put the folder away, I felt shiver down my spine.
I don't know why, but I just felt like something bad was going to happen but I don't know to who or when.
It was a terrible gut feeling, I brushed it off and changed into my pajamas.
I turned off my light and went to bed but I couldn't stop thinking about it, it was engraved in my brain for no reason.
I sat up in my bed and stared at my wall, I was worried about what was going to happen.
Maybe it was all made up, I hope that it's all in my head and wasn't true.
I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, I got up from bed and went outside of my trailer.

What do I do to satisfy this gut feeling?
I walked around for a bit, trying to get the last bit of energy out of my body but it was useless.
Everything I tried only made it worse, it made me feel sick.
I walked back to my trailer and turned on the TV, I watched Golden Girls reruns because it's usually what calms my nerves.
Maybe I was nervous about leaving them and that we wouldn't ever see each other again.
With all the worrying in my head, I fell asleep.
But it didn't stop my body from screwing with my mind and giving my nightmares, I woke up to the worst nightmare of all time.
I was drenched in sweat and hyperventilating, the nightmare felt so real that I was scared in real life too.
I wasn't sure what was real or fake but I didn't want to find out either, I sat up and tried to catch my breath.
Tears streamed down my face, I felt like I was being suffocated but I wasn't anymore.
It felt like Veronica trying to suffocate me with a pillow all over again, I began to cry harder.
Everything inside me began to cramp up.
I felt sick, I got up from the bed and ran straight to the bathroom.
I bent over the toilet and threw up, I laid on the floor.
My body hurt everywhere, I don't think I would be able to get up and call for help.
I lied there as my tears fall down my cheeks and down the side of my face, I closed my eyes and steadied my breath.
After a few hours, I felt the pain ease up.
I got up from the floor and went to my bed, after I brushed my teeth of course.

I closed my eyes and tried getting sleep, I relaxed my tense muscles and just tried sleeping normally.
I got the guy, I got the job, what else did I want or need?
Was there a step that I was missing, causing my gut feeling?
I'll figure this out tomorrow, I just need to focus on my breathing, heart rate and body.
This will probably blow over, I was most likely overdramatic.
Something bad is about to happen to me, I don't know but I feel it coming.

Clarent Saga: Chronicles
Based on my work on Saga of the Jewels, I've been hired by an indie game developer to write the novel for their 'novel + turn-based battles' game which is in Early Access on Steam. Of course, a 'novel + turn based battles' is a terrible idea for a game, which is why no other games like this exist, but hey, the developer is paying me. And if something's worth doing at all, it's worth doing as well as possible, so I am going to give this project my very best shot and try to make it as good as it can be. So if you read this, please give me feedback on the story to help me make it as good as it can be! Please note, for this story I have been given a pre-existent set of characters, character back-story sketches and a rough plot to work with. I also have to insert random battles into the narrative, have set characters appear in a certain order, and have the party fight fixed bosses in a certain order, all at fixed points! Please also note that this is a first draft. I will be editing and re-working this in the future and re-posting it. But I need helpful feedback, if anyone can give it. You can also find the game version of this on Steam by searching there for 'Clarent Saga: Chronicles'.
