《JOHNNY X CEREAL (CTC FAN FIC)》Chp 19 *Bonus*
Advertisement
(Throughout this chapter instead of addressing Johnny in 3rd person I'll be refering him into 1st!)
The past few months had been tough. Once Johnny had managed to get Chris to the hospital things didn't really get any better from there.
Chris was rushed straight into the surgery room. Doctors had told Johnny that Chris went into a sever shock, but deep down Johnny knew that's not what it was.
His wish was fading.. and so was there love.
(Current)
I hadn't eaten for what felt like days, not that it mattered. I was losing weight, so much so the doctors tried to get me admitted. Twice.
I looked over at Chris's almost life-less body. They said his brain activity was strong, and his breathing was current, but the bare rising and falling of his chest barley confirmed it for me.
I wanted to feel him against me, I wanted to be able to smell his sweet aroma again, I wanted to-
My head was in the gutter- again..
My eyes stung with tears, which was nothing new. Three months- I've been waiting for three months.. But yet there wasn't a sign, besides the sudden twitch of his lips from when the cold air turned on.
I realized that through all this time I hadn't touched Chris. Just looked at him from afar. I hadn't stroked his hair, or touched his hand. I'll admit that I was afraid to do so.
"Want anything?" Julia asked. The nurse that checked on me from time to time.
"No." My words cut bitter through the air, but it wasn't hard to tell that I was bitter myself.
I stood up for what was literally the first time in two days. My legs were sore and numb- but I ignored it as I made my way over to Chris's bed. I rubbed my hand against the hard plastic which held up the hospital bed.

"Chris?.." I whispered. The words of sorrow sounded drowned out by my weary voice.
I was scared...
He twitched again, but it was just his lip.
My heart felt heavy.
"Why won't you answer me?..
There was just silence that filled the air, other than the machines that were keeping track of Chris's heart rate.
I grabbed his hand. Hastily, without thinking.
"I love you.." I cried out.
I wanted to scream, I wanted to cry, and maybe deep down I wanted to laugh, and act like this wasn't happening- like I wasn't overreacting.
For the first time I watched his fingers twitch. then his mouth. Then his eyes. And I watched it happen again, and again..
"You can hear me can't you?.." My tears streamed down my face, some leading into my mouth leaving a saltier feeling to the mood. He could hear me. I knew it. All that was left was for him to wake up.. Or at least open his eyes.
I squeezed his hand a little bit more, wanting him to respond back. I knew he was trying what he could- and I didn't blame him.
"I wish we were whole again." I smiled crookedly. Because I really did. And I really wanted it to work. I pleaded with myself in my head, but there was nothing.
"I-" A single half broken 'word left his mouth as he briefly gasses for air.
This. Was more than enough.
This is the end of the official story. BUT- there are still bonus chapters. Next to be published are the "What if chapters." That tell short story's and have smut scenes of what would have happened if everything went well. Only because I'm so nice and want to give you all a happy ending!
Also don't forget to vote and comment!! Love you all! IGNORE TYPOS.

Epic Of The Second Strongest Demonic Blade King
This book contains a lot of Violence, Blood and Gore. If that would repulse you, then this book is not for you.
8 254Killing Tree
When your day goes to hell and you find yourself kidnapped, strung up from a magical tree, and left to bleed out, what do you do next? Asking for a friend. Fortunately, Riordan Kincaid is a tough, gives-no-fucks honey badger shifter. Unfortunately, now that he's survived the first attempt, a death mage and their cult are determined to finish the job by whatever means necessary, pursuing Riordan across the wilds of rural Michigan. Ghosts and spirits are outside of his specialty, and heaven help him if he has to cast actual spells, but Riordan isn't going to make this easy on his enemies. Even if that means breaking his long exile, turning to the local shifter community for help, and dealing with a bureaucratic department of mages. And don't even get him started on getting licked by a damn spirit bear. Now he just needs to figure out what will kill him first: his enemies, his past, or his own attempts at using magic? Or will Riordan beat the odds and prove that honey badgers really are that hard to kill? If so, what will he do with a life once hung upon a tree that's more than a tree?

8 184An Unwavering Craftsman
Given the hereditary nature of classes, everyone expects Damien—the child of two high-tiered adventurers—to be granted a high-tier combat class of his own. Expectations are betrayed, however, when Damien finds himself instead saddled with a crafting class of the lowest possible tier: [Neophyte Tailor]. Left practically crippled compared to those with better classes, Damien wants to avoid becoming a pawn in the machinations of the nobility, desiring only to grind his level in peace while wondering why the usual rules of inheritance were broken. Was it his desire to excel by his own effort, rather than an unearned blessing from a god? Did the Five take offence at his opinions on the unfairness of hereditary classes? Or maybe it was something to do with the alien voice that intruded on his ceremony? A voice that offers great power, and freedom from the tyranny of the Five, but that never names its price. This story is litRPG-lite. While the class someone possesses controls most of their lives, people don't get dinged at for every level they gain, nor can they see their status without undergoing a special ritual. The MC has no romantic interest. Crafting is merely a way to game the system, and doesn't feature heavily in the story, aside from a few descriptions on how they're carrying out the system abuse. There is, on one unfortunate occasion, maths. The pace is quick. This was a participant in the Spring 2022 writathon. (i.e. it was posted as-written at high speed. I may give it another editing pass in the future.)
8 182Just Don't Shoot the Quartermaster
Aliens are real! And monsters! But that's racist, don't call them that. And there's magic too! The life of humble, hard-working Carioca*¹² Rafael Barro is thrown into disarray when the interstellar Multi-Unity Alliance comes knocking. During the negotiations to take Earth in as a Protected Member-Planet for the glory of our AI overlords, the aliens ‘accidentally’ break the Veil that keeps the mythics protected from humanity’s knowledge, revealing the creatures of legend and myth that were hiding among us for millennia — from the doorman to global leaders. After a series of mishaps in his ever chaotic Brazil, our intrepid hero decides to join the Unity's Army, where he ends up as a inglorious… quartermaster. The Unity takes all recruits to make matters worse, including the mythics! And the cherry on the damn pie is Rafael Barro’s extra assignment: writing this historical first-hand report on the wonders of Earth’s diversity, the seamless adaptation of all its members, and on his gallant units’ first stellar expedition ever to defend another precious*³ world! Are we talking about the same planet? (Reader discretion is advised; Contains Graphic Language and Potentially Excessive Swearing) *¹ Carioca = demonym of someone from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. *² humble and/or hardworking Cariocas = not necessarily mythics, ordinary ones actually exist. *³ precious = inasmuch every living planet is precious. Editor's Note: Someone disable his permission to edit the draft on UnityDocs, please! Hello, I'm McKing and I aim to write an original story with elements I've never seen put together before. Feel free to point out any mistakes you see — I'm not a native speaker, so I'm sure a few will pass me by. Sci-fi; Humor; (Brazilian) Urban Fantasy; faint shades of LitRPG. **Be warned it has a bit of an (absurd) slice-of-life beginning though the story is being subtly (I hope) worked on and eventually shifts gears (a bit). I planned to say that from the beginning, but I forgot to add it.** I hope that you enjoy it and that I can grow as a writer with your contributions. No Fixed Update Schedule. My inspiration comes in bursts and so will the Chapters. Sorry if that displeases you (I love regular updates too), but I'm afraid that's the best I can do for now. Keep in mind that it is a work in progress and things can eventually change a bit - I'll try to always note the changes. Sorry for the bad cover, it was the best my sorry skills could do! I hope you enjoy it,Mcking
