《Adopted By Thomas Sanders and The Sanders Sides (UNDER EDITING!)》The Accident.

*The night before*
"Sean!" Aricka protests, as Jack mercilessly tickles her. "No fair!" she was gasping for air as he let her go. Checking her phone, she stood up. "Dad's waiting outside for me." they walk out, and before she climbs into the passenger seat, Jack claimed a kiss. "I love you," she murmurs.
"I love you too," he answers, and shuts the door, watching them pull away. "More than you'll ever know."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nothing prepared the Sanders household for what would happen that morning.
Aricka woke up, and checked her phone as normal:
Text from: Mama Mcloughlin:
Aricka, Sean was in an accident last night-he didn't make it. Will you come to the visitation this afternoon?
A haunted scream tore its way through Aricka's throat and out of her mouth, "SEAN!" she cries, sending Roman and Virgil running. She'd dropped her phone, and fell to the ground crying. "No, no, no!" she whispered over and over. Virgil runs to Aricka, and hugs her, while Roman looks at her phone. "OH NO SEAN!" she suddenly screams. "No!" that brought the other four in.
"What-?" Patton asks. Roman pushes them out and shows them the text, making Patton and Damien cry, and Thomas and Logan gasp. They look in and see Aricka crying and Virgil holding her, tears falling down his own face.
"No, not Sean. Not Sean." they could hear her whisper. "Please, not my Sean." Virgil rocked her gently, trying to calm her down. He gives Roman a helpless look.
What were they going to do?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aricka was numb. Mama Mcloughlin held her for a few minutes, then led her over to the coffin where Jack was. A strangled cry left her, and she grabbed Jack's hands. "Jack, open your eyes," she whispers. "Jack, c'mon, baby. Don't do this. Jack!" His hand was cold and lifeless. "Sean, baby. C'mon. Don't-I need you!"

*time skip*
"Aricka, Sean's girlfriend, graciously agreed to sing a song for this tragic occasion."
Aricka walks up to the podium. "I'll-uh-be singing mine and Jack's song." the music starts:
"Your eyes, your smile, I can't read, what they're telling me
One time, is all that I need (yeah, yeah)
Don't hide behind, those looks, that you're giving me
Who knows where this might lead?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
So come a little bit, come a little bit closer
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Cause' I just want to get to know you
I wanna get to know you better
You can tell me all your secrets
Don't hide them from me
Yeah, yeah
I wanna get to know you better
I'm there for you whenever
You wanna get to know me?..." then she started to cry again. She couldn't finish-could she?
Suddenly someone takes her hand and starts singing with her. It was-Virgil?
"Cause' I'm cool with that
Who makes first move?
Half way, is where I'll meet you
Your right, is where I wanna be
Yeah
I get, that your scared
Don't be, 'cause girl your beautiful
I wanna know your whole story, yeah oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
So come a little bit, come a little bit closer
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Cause' I just want to get to know you
I wanna get to know you better
You can tell me all your secrets
Don't hide them from me
Yeah..."

The Unstoppable Ascension of Zu Mari, Time-Looper
Zu Mari will never be stopped! Zu Mari will ascend to the heavens! Zu Mari is a downtrodden cultivator without any hope of becoming powerful. OR SO HE THINKS! One day fate intervenes on his behalf to give him everything he'd ever dreamed of, ALL THE POWER HE SO RIGHTLY DESERVES! And then, finally, everything starts going his way. (Well... kind of.) [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] wooooo!! Let's do this! Just to clear up some misconceptions, this is not a parody and it is not a satire. Zu Mari does include over the top humor and exaggerations intended to amuse, but satire is a very specific thing which this is not. I certainly haven't read enough xianxia to properly satirize or parody them. It's just a silly project I'm writing for fun, with a meta story that makes me laugh. Expecting anything else will only end in disappointment.

It's Hard to be a Hero in a Parallel World
A hero is transported from the real world into a parallel world similar to the video game he's been obsessed with for the past few weeks. The problem is, this game is way too difficult, especially for a nerdy gamer boy to survive. He decides to leave the hero-duty to someone who is actually competent while he looks for a way home. He hopes his knowledge of the game will help him stay out of trouble. Unfortunately, as one would imagine, the normal events of a game would change drastically when the main character is nowhere to be found. Read as the unlikely hero gets into trouble with his new companions, while trying to survive life in this parallel world. This is an original story that takes inspiration from and pokes fun at many novels, video games, anime, and the stereotypes and tropes that appear in those media.
