《Disappearance》Chapter 16
Advertisement
Right now we are sitting in the courthouse with our lawyer trying to see if there is anything we could do to get a DNA test done on the little girl.
"Your honor we are here today to request that the police be sent to Dr. Louis's home immediately and the child be taken into custody until we get the test done and the results back". Our lawyer Grant said and I didn't even know they could do that so I was shocked but I didn't protest.
"And what information do you have that leads me to believe that this child could possibly be theirs, what you just want me to send officers to a well respected Drs home and arrest him". The judge said and I tilted my head to the side.
"That's exactly what he's saying". I said mugging him and Jahreem squeezes my hand softly causing me to look over at him and he shook his head no.
"Speak out of term again and I will dismiss the whole case". He said and I opened my mouth to say something else but then I thought about Haisley so I just sat back.
"So are you going to grant us that". Grant asked and the judge looked at him.
"I'll grant the DNA test but the child will stay with its parents and the test will be scheduled for tomorrow ". He said before getting his papers and standing up walking away.
"Fucking dickhead". I said as I stood up causing Grant and Jahreem to laugh.
"I'm going to keep trying to get him to agree with getting the child taken until we figure out this whole ordeal". Grant said picking up all the papers and putting them in his briefcase.
"Okay thank you and please update us if anything changes". I said shaking his hand and he nods.

Looking over at Jahreem I noticed that he hasn't said a word now that I think about it he hasn't really said much since we had the meeting with our PI.
"You ready to go". He asked and I nod following behind him.
Getting in the car I start it up and pull off.
"Why you been so quiet". I ask looking over at him then back at the road.
"I can't decide if I want to kill him and go to jail for life or let the police handle it and be with my daughter for the rest of her life". He said staring at the road.
"I think option two sounds a lot better". I said nodding.
"Yeah but the devil is dancing on option one and he looking real tempting". He said with a straight face.
"At least we get to do the test as soon as possible". I said trying to lighten the mood.
"She not gone want to be with us cause she don't know us". He said with a sigh dropping his head.
"I don't know how true this is but kids have connections with their parents". I said grabbing his hand with my free hand.
"I haven't really had time to process all this information and shit just hitting me left and right like if she is ours and we do get her I expect her to automatically come to me but I know that shit not gone happen". He said shaking his head.
"I mean you never know it could". I said parking the car and getting out.
Walking into the apartment building I unlock the door and walk in first.
"How about I make your favorite". I ask with a smile causing him to smile a little.
"I would really appreciate it baby". He said walking to the living room.

Going into the kitchen I get all the things I need to make his food and get started.
Picking up the plates I carry them to the living room and hand him his before sitting mines on the table and going to get us something to drink.
Taking a seat beside him we start eating while watching tv.
After we got done I took the plates to the kitchen placing them in the dishwasher before walking back to the living room.
When I got back Jahreem wasn't in there.
"BABY". I call out walking to the back.
"I'm in here". He said as I passed Haisley's room.
"When did you get that". I ask as he sat in the rocking chair holding a teddy bear.
"I bought it the other day you know if she's ours then she can play with it". He said looking down at it.
Walking over I take a seat by his legs and lay my head on his lap.
"She's going to love it". I said closing my eyes as he started running his fingers through my hair.
"I hope so". He mumbled but I still heard him.
She'll love him...

(Un)Paralleled
Based on the novel by MGHT, Unparalleled. Things are not as they were. In this alternate story, follow our Hero(?) as he traverses the world. But, is this world really the one we know? I will be using MGHT's original story as a guideline, and applying my own touch to it. Due to there being a lack of information on the wider scope of things, I'll be throwing in things that may not adhere to the original author's plans. Then again, what fun is there in reading something that has already been done? Tags and genres stated are subject to change without notice, be it the addition or removal of tags. Cover art is a fanart I found online a long time ago. Character is Gyuki from Nurarihyon No Mago.

Of Souls and Rogues
When thieves Von and Lloyd are murdered, they wake up to find themselves not in the afterlife, but in the realm of the demigods. These demigods rule territories and hold sway over various domains, such as professions, elements, and more. The demigods vie for power, be it through military, economic, or diplomatic means. The roguish and jovial demigod of thieves, tricksters, and deception, Cadius, has taken a keen interest in the duo, and ropes them into his escapades, plots, and schemes. Just what kind of person is Cadius, and what grand designs does he have in store? From pickpocketing to infiltrating the personal quarters of the demigods themselves, Von and Lloyd have their work cut out for them. They'll need to support and encourage eachother if they want to survive. Check out the Discord! Note: This is my first work of fiction, and as such, there will almost certainly be issues with pacing, grammar, the writing as a whole, and the story as a whole. If I reach a suitable point to pause the story, I will most likely do a complete rewrite as a separate RR posting. If you have any suggestions, feel free to post them here or in the discord. Thank you for reading!

Unfortunately for Ash, worst courier in the helix, that's his day-to-day. When he gets offered an opportunity to get back into this boss's good graces (and finally get something decent to eat), Ash jumps at the chance, even if that means getting tangled back up with figures he'd rather leave in the past. This is a solo play log of Shawn Tomkin's ttrpg Starforged, as such, even I don't know what's going to happen next! Enjoy the ride!
