4th Grade
“Selena Brians please come to the office.” The intercom called. I happily skipped down and collected my roses.
“And happy birthday.” The secretary smiled.
“Thank you.” I smiled back. I skipped back to glass and waited for the bell to ring. I was 10! Finally! Double digits!
After the bell rang I went and waited for my mom. “Is it your birthday?” Ms. Romero, one of the nicest teachers asked. “Yes.”
“Well happy birthday! Hey you know Kevin? Its his birthday too!” I smiled and climbed in my car. Who’s Kevin? Is he that blonde tall guy? Maybe. I let it slide.
5th Grade
It was true. We had the same birthday. He was cute so I thought ‘hey, its not that bad.’ boy was I wrong!
On our birthday the fight began in the morning. Before school. We were in the same class. I mean yes, I had a slight crush on him but it didn’t matter.
“We have the same birthday.” He said. “Yeah but I’m turning 11. And I’m more special.” I joked. “No I am cuz’ I was born first.” “No I am cuz’ I’m a girl.”
Then that’s what triggered our fights. He brought his friends into it. Always on his side. Everyone, because he was hot I mean of course you’re going to be on the same side as the hot guy. People were so easy.
6th Grade
This year was different. I was going to avoid him. After fighting for two years you hope it stops.
Scar smiled at me and asked "loud or quiet?" "loud..?" I said.
She sang me happy birthday in her beautiful voice. I awed and gave her a squealing hug.
"Its your birthday?" Jonathan -a jock- asked.

"Yeah." "Oh its Kevins too." "I know." I shifted uncomfortably.
After a while Jonathan went into the street to retrieve a dollar. "Guys I found a dollar!" He laughed.
He walked up to me and said "Here. Happy birthday." I smiled and laughed with Scar. Jonathan went to the giant group of jocks that sang to Kevin. It made me sad but I was happy with just Scar's alone.
I was planning on saying ‘Happy Birthday.’ like everybody else. But he wouldn’t- allow me to. Well not really. Well look, I went up to say it and he started laughing.
“Everyone keeps telling me ‘Happy Birthday’. I’m sure you have only a few.” He laughs.
“What no!” I yelled. His friend Jason popped up from behind.
“We got the whole class to sing it to him.”
“So…” I said and entered math. I had math with Kevin.
“Okay class before we get started we have a birthday to sing for. 1, 2, 3. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Kevin,”
“And Selena!” My best friend yelled but no one heard her.
“Birthday to you.” The teacher finished.
“Its also Selena’s!” My best friend, Scarlet, said.
“Oh! Really? Well sorry Selena!” She said and sang again but saying “Selena and Kevin” Instead. Wow what a difference he gets his twice. Ugh. Kevin laughed and I knew he was just rubbing it in. Don’t cry. Just deal. Its your birthday, you’ll be fine..
After class Scarlet hugged me and smiled. Her black skirt and shirt stretching out.
“Thanks.” I smiled.
“No problem. Hope you have a better day.” She said scuffing her combat boots and walking off. Yeah she was kinda goth but I loved her cuz’ we were total opposites. I’m trendy and she loves black. I love her no matter what. She always made me feel better.

A Broken World [Rewrite]
In a world of floating islands of stone in the sky, where rivers flow through the air and defy gravity from one island to another, and ancient ruins can be found containing wonders beyond what can be produced by the lands current inhabitants- a millenia long war rages. In the distant past, beyond recorded history, when the crown of humanity's glory, the city of Uri, had stood whole against the enroaching demon swarms- even as hope seemed lost, a band of heroes, against all odds, managed to steal powerful magical knowledge from the demons. With the demon's forbidden knowledge, in the heart of Uri a new ritual was made. Called, "The Millenial Summoning," the ritual had the power to call a being from another world that would have the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods to the world. With the blessings and power of the new priests, the unstoppable demon hordes were finally halted. A thousand years later, the ritual was used again and "The First Sorceress" was brought to the world. She brought the knowledge of advanced magics, and techniques to find and refine magical talent. With the magic power now added to the battlefield, the stalemate was broken. And for the first time, the demons were pushed back. Another thousand years later, and all of humanites hope for a final victory were dashed. Traitors slew the ritual's participants and took their places, and humanity quaked as The Demon King stepped into the world. His name, his nature, where he came from none of these are known, but what is known is his overwhelming power and his brilliant strategic leadership of the formerly formless hordes. Still, despite their position being even more dire than it has ever been since history has been recorded, humanity held on for another thousand years. Aided, thankfully, by The Demon King not taking the field after the first few years and battles. Now, the ritual is being cast again and a new hero is being summoned. In our world, after nearly three decades of study and hard work, Lucas Jaeger is making his dreams come true. With a double doctorate in both genetics and microbiology, as well as an associates degree in accounting, he has finally, after nearly driving himself mad from stress and sick from overwork, been able to put to together a presentation and ask for a business loan. His long time dream, earned by his own blood and sweat, to start his own commercial genetic company is finally coming to fruition. Lucas's car never left the banks parking lot and Lucas was never seen again in our world. This is a rewrite of "A Broken World." It is basically the same story, just a thousand times better and with decent length chapters!

In the kingdom of Zorhana, one adventuring team rises to the top as they come to terms with their pasts and uncover a plot to destroy all they hold dear. Together they'll learn to trust each other, to love each other, and grow strong enough to overcome any challenge. This is the tale of unsung heroes, filled with daring adventure and powerful bonds, vicious monsters and shining redemption. Come, sit, stay awhile and listen. This story contains violence, budding romance, friendships forged in fire, and fantastical racism. I'm writing this story using the fifth edition of Dungeons & Dragons, the legendary tabletop roleplaying game. I first began posting this story on my personal Facebook page and on Tumblr under the username "valoroflight". I only put a few chapters in before moving to Wattpad to finish posting the full story. Unfortunately, my story has begun showing up on NovelHD without my permission, so I am moving to RoyalRoad in an attempt to get away from that.
