《Zodiac One Shots》Best Friends (Sagittarius (f) x Gemini (m))
Advertisement
(Sagittarius' POV)
He pushed me into one of the chairs and I tipped over easily. He was always doing this to me; teasing me and pushing me around all because I was younger. I was still his best friend, though. We promised that we'll always stick together, and even if he pushed me, I was still madly in love with him.
Gemini.
The only guy who could make my stomach flip. We didn't get to see each other as much as we used to, since he moved schools, but we met up at every dance and every weekend.
Tonight was one of the last dances of the year, and I had all my best friends with me. Aquarius, Libra, Leo, and Aries. We were going to get ready together and discuss our plan to get Gemini to ask me out.
But first... We had to wait for Gemini to leave. He laughed as I got up and frowned, then he patted my head with a grin.
"Alright, I should go home and get ready," He said, looking at the clock.
"Finally! I was starting to think you'd never leave me alone!" I laughed and elbowed him in the shoulder.
He bit his lip and shrugged, "I kinda don't care, but Taurus does." He grabbed his backpack and left, leaving me alone in the living room.
"SAGITTARIUS!" I knew that scream, Aries was getting impatient. I giggled and went back to my room and sat with the girls to talk about our plan.
~Later~
We all walked into the crowded gym and I quickly spotted Gemini, who was on Taurus' shoulders, screaming along to the Post Malone song blasting. I held back a laugh and went with Aries, Libra, and Aquarius while Leo strutted across the dance floor to Gemini.

She was supposed to talk to him about if he liked me or not, and to leave him hints that I liked him. It was risky, but it worked for Libra and Pisces, so why not? I tried to hide behind Aquarius, but I'm the tallest in the group, so that was hard.
The lights got darker and we watched as Leo and Gemini talked. We saw Gemini awkwardly rub the back of his neck, and Taurus hit his arm and laughed. Leo shrugged and walked over to her sister for a bit, then came back to us.
"What'd he say!" Aries jumped lightly, full of excitement.
"We talked about how this dance kinda sucked, he agreed, then said he was surprised no one has asked him to dance yet. Taurus jumped in and said that Gemini has to ask out the first girl to dance with him." She glanced back, then continued, "Gemini looked over at you for a bit, then said okay. Then, I said that there was one girl here that was into him, and that's pretty much it."
"Wait, what?! So I have to go ask him to dance before anyone else does?!" My head was spinning, and I sat down at the nearest chair and sighed.
Suddenly, Photograph came on, and Libra immediately grabbed my arm and got me up.
"You have to hurry! Girls will be lining up to ask him!" She cried and pushed me closer to the crowd.
All my friends urged me to hurry, and once my feet started working, I went. I slipped through the crowd as fast as I could without running, and before I knew it, I was in front of him...
"Sagittarius!" He smiled, and I could see Taurus grinning behind him.

"Hey Gem! I have a question..." I forced the words out.
"What's up?"
I took a deep breath... "Will you... uh... Do you want to dance with me?"
He looked at me for a while, then said, "On one condition."
"Yeah...?"
"Will you go out with me?" He grinned.
I looked back at my friends, who were all smiling and giving me thumbs up. I turned back to the love of my life and answered, "I'd love to!"
"Good! Let's dance, best friend!"
I've never had so much fun at a dance before.

Humanity's End
Given a year to prepare by the mysterious ‘system’ for contact with the wider galaxy, humanity must work to ensure the Earth’s defense is ready to meet any challenge. Sadly, most of the world seems dedicated to tearing itself apart as the year-end deadline gets closer. The west is in barely contained Chaos, while the east descends into internal conflict and war. The Pillar Forts, one of the few successful projects of the United Nations headed by the United States, stand ready to defend humanity against any invasion that may come through the strange Connection Pillars that appeared on each continent. Massive steel and stone walls that surround the Connection Pillars. They are filled with deadly men and women trained in all manner of warfare, each trained in the newly acquired System with skills and magical abilities that they put to deadly purpose. Beside these brave warriors, tanks, helicopters, artillery and more stand ready to defend humanity at each of these powerful installations. But, can they overcome the disparity in levels and experience between themselves and the forces that threaten them and the rest of humanity? Main Characters Jessica Brown- A young African American girl. Her 18th birthday in Detroit was the same day the systems message appeared. She discovered she was Level 7, much higher than most of the rest of the world. Why she is blessed, or cursed, with the power she doesn’t know. But what she does know is that she rather likes the feeling that comes with manipulating magic. The week after her birthday, government workers started testing every person in the US in a massive census effort of skills and abilities. Jessica Brown found herself conscripted into the US Magical Corp, a new branch of the US Military, and shipped off to a Pillar Fort. Somewhere hot and muggy in her ancestors’ home of Africa. As she grows stronger, she finds she has some connection to the pillars. While everyone else sees beauty or danger when they look at the pillars, after connection is made all Jessica can see is a Tree. A tree the size of the entire universe. Isaka Smith - is a third generation American and farmer who just wants to be left alone. But she is dragged into the situation by events beyond her control. When people in her small town had to deal with rioters and looters after the system announcement, she rallied them to defend themselves, earning her a trait that the government found extraordinarily useful. After a visit to a local reservation, she finds herself conscripted to lead one of the many small support towns erected around the great pillar forts. Not near her old home, but in far-flung Africa. John McIntire, the “Fighting Bull” -The commander of the African Fort, but because of circumstances beyond his ability to contend with shortly after taking command after being re-activated from retirement, he finds communication with his chain of command increasingly difficult. The US government, hell, even the United Nations, seems to have fallen into complete and utter chaos. The African Union is embroiled in a bitter civil war just outside his door, and supposedly, most of the world governments are in similar situations. Meanwhile, John must do his best to be ready to facilitate diplomacy, or to match the hostile argument of whatever force might come through the pillar of light when the year timer finishes counting down. Can our heros defend Earth from outside threats, while it tares itself apart? Or will they need to rebuild from the ground up? DEDICATION: This story is dedicated to my father who passed away recently. Jim Holloway, you’ll be missed you old silverback gorilla. Love you dad. Always have, always will.
