《The Land of Aurora》Chapter 3: News Flash
Advertisement
Waking up in the morning due to the News on TV, stretching his hands with a yawn.
Looking at the television, he saw Diamond sitting on the launge, watching the tv, weaping at the same time.
He had been so tired from the incident and activity that he had forgotten all about his girlfriend at the moment, not realising that she had woken up before him.
Getting up from his bed, not bothering to tidy up his blankets and bed sheets, which were in a mess, walking towards Diamond, sitiing on her right, placing his arm around her, joining her in watching the news.
Resting her head on his shoulders, she is clearly the most beautiful girl he has ever met, he had at least ten girls he had a crush on and dated back in the Black Wasteland but none of them were more beautiful than Diamond.
"Are you alright?" Finally breaking the silence, he planted a kiss on her forehead. "You are not usually this silent."
"I still can't get over the death of my friends. I wonder whose doing is this." The blue haired girl was still unaware of what is going on.
Remembering the headmaster whom had bailed him and his friends from the Black Wasteland out of jail, place him in his class and unit, the warning about Mr Z came to mind.
"Is everything alright Diamond, still resting her head on Jasper's left shoulder, her left arm intwined with her right arm, look him in the eyes, clearly concern that her boyfriend ha suddenly become all quite.
"It is nothing." While looking calm on the outside, Jasper clearly showed that he was trying to hide something.
"There can't be nothing. You can tell me anything. After all, I am your girlfriend."Clearly she was trying to get Jasper to speak. "I might not have known your for a long time but I already trust you, unlike my exs."

"Thank you. Let's gather our friends who witness the accident yesterday, we need to keep it as secret as possible. Please do not tell Icelyn. I know you both have become best friends."

"Good morning sunshine!" Icelyn planted a kiss on her new boyfriend's head. "Wake up, Brian."
"Good morning, darling. It is great to see you." A sleepy Brian was pulled out of bed by Icelyn, he did not resist her.
"Let's turn on the tv and see what is up this Saturday morning. Oh I forgot, it is almost afternoon. We have missed breakfast." Giggling, dragging her boyfriend out of the bedroom door which was left open, all the way to the launge before turning on the television with her remote control.
Both Icelyn and Brian were shock at what they saw on news. Realising that Diamond did not get home, she began to worry. "Looks like I have better give her a call."
Before she could make that call, she was shock that Amertyst and Golden and everyone else in their units have disappeared. "I wonder where they have disappeared off to.Where are you, Amertyst and Golden?"
A knock of the door arrive. Running up to the main door, opening it, she was shock to see Jasper and Dimond. They both had an extremely serious look on their face.
Turning to Brian who was hugging her from behind, she turned around wisphering into his ear. "You will need to get out!"
Kissing him on the lips, grabbing his wrists with her hands, dragging him to the door, kicking him out.
"See you later, honey."Waving at him, with a giggle, blowing a kiss, slamming the door shut.
As soon as she lock the door, she invited her friends to sit with her at the table, offering them the brazillian BBQ she had originally prepared for Brian. "So what brings you both here?"

"Have you seen the news in the morning?" Jasper's body language and the sweat flowing down from his forehead shows that he meant business, unlike his unsual laidback self.
"I have. Two of our friends have gone missing."
"More than that. Diamond's clique as well as Golden's new friends have gone missing. We have been originally sent into the Black Wasteland to do Mr Z's bidding and it seems that he is mad at us?"
"I don't actually know what is going on." Diamond looked at Jasper with a frown.
"You look beautiful even with that frown." Jasper managed to light things up as his girlfriend along with Icelyn broke out with a laugh.
"I wouldn't be too worried about Golden and Amertyst. They both know how to look after themselves. They are capable leaders." Icelyn pleasently offered Diamond and Jasper a cup of coffee each.
"They are probably outside somewhere, causing some havock." Jasper played along not wanting to put his girlfriend in unneccessary danger.
"What about the explosion which has happened yesterday?" Diamond now looked puzzled.
"There are no dead bodies found. There is a good chance they are still alive. We will check up on them soon."
"That is why you are my boyfriend. Regardless of the situation, you are always optimistic." Diamond planted a kiss on Jasper's cheek before pulling out a tissue to wipe off the lipstick stain.
"He is optimistic indeed." Icelyn who was listening to the conversation intently interjected, giggling at the same time.
"I am please to have you as my best friend. You are always lighting things up. One second thought I thought you will be dating Parrot instead of his best friend Brian."
"Brian is way cooler."
"I agree. However, he was punched up by my ex for not leaving me alone. That guy is super clingy. I would advise you to be wary of him."
Not understanding what was said to her, she continued giggling. "It's alright I will find my way around. Brian is at least charming."
"You are sounding exactly like Evie when she had a crush on Chad Charming." Diamond smirked as soon as Icelyn finished her statement.
"What?"

Celestial Teahouse System [Slice Of Life LitRPG]
“I guess this is the end of my lifespan? How pathetic.” An infamous Immortal Emperor from Black Heaven Realm was at the end of his lifespan as he shut his old and wrinkled eyelids, awaiting his impending death with a hint of regret. However, when he was on his last breath– the serenity was disrupted by a simple-looking pebble that started glowing intensely out of nowhere as it entered his dantian and he lost consciousness. After what seemed like forever, he finally woke up and to his amazement– he discovered that his body had recovered to the state of his once youthful self with his cultivation only regressing by a little, while ending up in a foreign world filled with modern technology– Earth. He realized that a mysterious robotic voice had suddenly established its presence in his mind unknowingly, issuing him missions and rewards that would help and guide him in a certain direction. Enjoying his new life with a carefree attitude in a new world, running a teahouse with the help of the Celestial Teahouse System– Li Qu will slowly unravel the mysteries behind the pebble and the reason for his transmigration. Was he the only one to do so? Or was there a deeper meaning behind all of this? Will be releasing chapters daily until it gets knocked off the Rising Star list. From then on, it'll be Monday - Friday. Important Note: It's written in a style of a 'Chinese-translated-to-English' type of story. I get the confusion in the earlier chapters, however– NO harem. It's mostly a turn-off-your-brain chill type of story. Author's Note: As this is the first story that I've ever written, there will be occasional errors and as such, please forgive me in advance.

8 51Adelaide
The entries here are transcribed from the log of Marie Ruiz, first mate of the Adelaide. It was definitely, definitely not published without her permission or knowledge by a certain lovable artificial intelligence for the purpose of sharing it with my AI friends on other ships who follow it like a soap opera. No way, no how. Remember guys, don’t go spreading this around too much. Only pass it on to those you can trust. God forbid this should ever end up on a public network… (Adelaide is a science fiction web serial featuring the adventures of a crew of smugglers. In space. It’s on the softer end of the soft/hard sci-fi spectrum because the author got a C in physics. Updates every other Sunday.)
