《Scars (Remus Lupin)》Ventiocho

"Good morning, welcome to the astronomy class, I'm Cassiopeia Black" she introduced herself. "Open your books on chapter 32"
Every single boy in the classroom stared in awe at the prettiest Professor they ever had. She was gorgeous, and her eyes matched perfectly with her hair.
"We are learning about you?" That was the voice of Draco Malfoy. She had seen him a couple of times when her sister Narcissa insisted on visiting. "Aunt Cassiopeia, don't you think we should learn about other constellations first?"
He smirked at the gasps he got when he called her "aunt Cassiopeia", but the blue eyed beauty was much more smarter than a thirteen year old boy.
"I'm Professor Black in Hogwarts Draco and, if you knew better, constellation Cassiopeia is the easiest one for people who know nothing about astronomy, like you." Everyone sniggered, Malfoy just mutters something under his breath. Cassiopeia just got the phrase "know about it" at the end.
"So, can someone tell me anything about that constellation?"
She spotted a pretty girl with brown hair raising her hand almost immediately.
"Yes Ms." she waited for the girl to finish her sentence.
"Ms. Granger Professor. That constellation symbolizes a Queen, and has a distinctive "w" shape, it's the easiest to recognize."
She gave the girl a wink and smiled.
"Very well, ten points to Gryffindor."
The class went by and when it was about to end, Cassiopeia added.
"Well, you may leave, except you Mr. Potter, I want a word"
He had a puzzled look, but nodded anyways. He couldn't deny she was beautiful, but she had a strange familiarity with someone he had seen before.
"Do you know who I am?" She asked unexpectedly.
"Well, your last name is Black, are you related with the murder that escaped?" She smirked. He was a smart kid, but smart kids always get into trouble.

"That's right. I'm his cousin, but you, you are my godson Harry" he stared at her in awe.
"Then, then why didn't I stay with you after... after my parents..." he didn't want to finish the sentence, and she didn't wanted him to.
"Dumbledore, he said you were not safe" she looked at his face. The resemblance was uncanny. "That's what I want to talk to you about, I know you don't know me, but we could get to know each other. Maybe, if you'd like to even be a proper family, what do you say?"
She was scared. Did she just rushed everything? Maybe she should have waited a little longer.
"I'd love that" he smiled at her, and she did the same. She wanted to take care of the boy.
"But one more question" she nodded for him to continue "why not sooner?"
She smiled sympathetically. It must've been hard for him to manage all those years with the worst muggle family in existence.
"I had to sort things out, work and everything" she said vaguely, but Harry didn't care, he had family left.

Path of Divinity
The world has been assimilated by the Celestial Archives, a vast system designed to fight the forces that seek to destroy the universe. For most, it's a holy cause that rewards victory with stats, levels, and skills. For Hunter Gold, it's the start of a nightmare. Even in a system dominated by paths, he finds himself taking the road less traveled. This is a work in progress. Major editing will be done after the book is complete, so there will be egregious typos and parts that make no sense whatsoever. Please feel free to point any and all of these things out. Chapters WILL get edited, and that editing might break earlier chapters. I will attempt to keep readers apprised of all changes. As always, feedback is welcome and appreciated. This is kind of something fun I wanted to write after reading stories like The New World, System Apocalypse, and the Legend of Randidly Ghosthound. I don't know how serious I will be about this story, but I just want to try it out. I imagine that it will become a love child between Fable, Diablo, and Devil May Cry. Enjoy!

8 229Transmigration Retiree
"What's that you say? I can never leave this reality ever? Good!" Ed, was a normal man in a world full of superheroes, so he didn't really have too many complaints when that first truck fell on him. After all he'd read enough comics to know that sometimes things just happen. Besides he'd been getting on in years when it happened, and his life till then, though lonely, had more or less been fully lived. The second time around when that one guy pushed him off a cliff for a chalice of immortal ambrosia, wasn't so cool though, and then there was that third time when he was just getting used to life as a lady, and that crazy goddess showed up out of nowhere and started ranting about purging the demon menace....then some other stuff happened and he briefly got to go back to earth before falling into a coma where he adventured in the world of dreams. Then the aliens came, and the dream ended and he was suddenly stuck being the AI Overmind for the whole damn star systm. The aliens died, and because he was all mechanical and what-not he just kind of had to keep on going. Forced to continue collecting the materials and data from countless worlds that were destoryed in the process. Then there was that whole war with the gods business that followed...mostly because of all that world destroying he did because of some fairly faulty programming. Anyway, thankfully someone pulled a "rocks fall" on that whole curfuffle, because by the time he was in control of himself again, things had long gotten out of hand. Now the powers-that-be tell him that he must spend the rest of his existence in single lonely section of the cosmos. Trapped in a single portion of a single universe. And now he weeps...No worries though, these are tears of joy. Hopefully this final unending existence he's been given will be the quiet life he's been looking for. A Man who's seen everything gets abducted by aliens and is converted into an AI that sits at the helm of a fleet of alien ships and behind the computer systems for most their planets. This Alien AI goes to war with the gods and ends up nearly destroying an entire reality. The Angels condemn the troublemaking AI to life as normal child on a far off world....All truth said, the "AI" couldn't be happier. His life's been far too interesting(read: Scary, Inconvenient and Painful) in his opinion and he could do with a bit of normalcy.
8 170Dark Wind, Icy Snow - (RyuTar, YinYuan) [BL]
Born a fatherless bastard, Nox ZaiWin has always been seen as a pariah by those around him. It doesn’t matter how hard he has tried to make a name for himself, excelling both in combat and military strategy, climbing all the way to his present position as Calzai by sheer hard work and persistence. His only goal? To be left alone so he can govern over his poor, ravaged Province in peace. And so, yeah, the last thing he wanted, was to become some Celestial’s Chosen One. And is that even a Celestial? Hasn’t the brat just murdered more than one-hundred of his men with a single scream? Aren’t Celestials supposed to be holly, pure beings, that abhor all forms of death and killing? No other choice! No matter how sinful it may be, the brat must die. Snow has lived most of his life locked in a dark room, explored and sold for his miraculous blood. There are a lot of things he does not understand about the outside world. But one thing is certain. He does not want to have anything to do with some scary dark monster. He wants to be free! And he’ll do whatever it takes to reach his goal. And yet … Shit! Aren’t they stuck together now?

8 239A Birdflash Story
//Three weeks ago Wally would have shoved such thoughts to the back of his mind in the 'nope, I am straight' section. It's amazing how some crazy aphrodisiac chemical and one kiss can change everything//Warning: I was like 16 when writing this. It sucks.
