《Disappearance》Chapter 18
Advertisement
I was so nervous right now because I'm just a hour we were going to find out if that little girl is ours or not.
"You okay". Jahreem asked brushing his teeth as he walked out of the bathroom.
"Yeah just nervous because I don't know the outcome". I said buttoning up my shirt as I sat on the bed.
"The way that little girl looked at me you can't tell me that's not my daughter". He said with a smile on his face.
"I'm surprised she actually took the bear from you that day". I said standing up grabbing my dress pants.
"Shit me too but I'm glad she did cause it had my voice recorded in it". He said wiping his face with a face towel.
"That's so sweet". I said with a smile on my face.
"Shit baby we need to hurry up". He said looking at the clock.
I look over and see we have thirty minutes to get to the courthouse.
Pulling up outside we get out and he grabs my hand as we walk in. Looking over I see Dr Louis and his wife and the lady from the hospital with the little girl.
"Let's get started who has the results". The judge asked looking between the two lawyers.
"That would be me your honor". Our lawyer said handing the envelope to the office that walked over.
He handed them to the judge and he opened the envelope reading over it.
"It looks like that little girl does indeed belong to the Mitchell's". The judge said and I passed out.
I feel something lean on me causing me to look down and see Marlowe passed out. Our lawyer handed me a paper and I started fanning her and after a good minute or so she woke up.

"She's ours that's Haisley". She asked looking at me and I nodded my head with a smile.
"Mr and Mrs Louis are set to spend 45 to life with no bail or possibility of parole and your license is also revoked". The judge said slamming the gavel.
Greta the social worker walked over and tried to hand Haisley to Marlowe but she started crying reaching for Mrs. Louis. She then tried giving her to me and she came without a problem laying her head into my neck.
"Thanks for helping us man". I said shaking hands with our lawyer.
"It's no problem really I'm just glad you guys caught on to this now and not when she was older". He said and I nodded.
"You ready to go".I ask looking over at Marlowe and she nodded grabbing my hand.
Walking out we get to the car and I go to strap Haisley in but she starts to cry.
"I'm gone sit back here with her". I said handing Marlowe the keys and getting in.
Leaning back Marlowe starts the car and pulls off.
Walking into the house I had to use the bathroom so I handed Haisley to Marlowe and she started crying but I really had to piss so I went ahead and went.
Washing my hands I walk out and Haisley was still crying.
"Can you take her I just need a minute". Marlowe said handing her to me and walking away.
Looking down she was sniffling already looking up at me.
"What's wrong mama's". I ask walking to her room and taking a seat in the rocking chair.
Leaning back she lays her head on my chest and after a while I look down and she was sleep. Standing up I place her in her crib before walking out cracking the door.

Going to our room I walk in and Marlowe was crying.
"Baby what's wrong". I ask wrapping my arm around her.
"She hates me". She said and I shook my head.
"Baby she doesn't hate you she's just not used to you yet she's used to that other lady". I said kissing the side of her forehead.
"Then how come she goes to you so easily". She asked and I shrugged my shoulders.
"I can't really tell you that but what I can tell you is that when she gets used to you she gone want you all the time". I said causing her to smile.
"Let's take a nap while she sleep and then we can go do something when she wakes up". I said laying down and she did the same laying her head on my chest.
Looking up at the ceiling I start to wonder.
Why is she so willing to come to me...

Odditorium
Creativity is power. Creation is power. Arax is empty, he has no personal attribute and his parents have left him out in the dark. By day he suffers through a mid-level university trying to convert people into Masters but it's given him no luck, nothing will stick. His only momentary joy is the games of Harshings that he plays every night with the members of the Armament Club, ten of the highest level Harshings players of all-time, Arax is the only one under three-hundred years old. Anyways, after a harsh game of Harshings (pun intended) one of the members of the club contacts him with a solution to his emptiness problem, Mimir's Well. Anyways, this story is about God's and creativity and bonkers off the wall (expletive) and rituals and God's and sex jokes. I probably got inspired by like all of the mythos stories that have been popping up on here. It's in a VERY rough form because I've just been getting back into writing. I've written like fifty thousand words already so I guess have fun.

Killstealer
Unfinished - Apologies to anyone who was reading but I have no current intentions to revisit this story Alex was stuck in a rut: He was nearing thirty, and his career seemed to be going no-where; He used to have plenty of friends at university, but had gradually lost touch with them. He had recently started using a dating site, but truthfully he never quite got over his ex. It could be worse; he didn't spend his nights wallowing in self pity. However, he had a sinking feeling that his life was going no-where fast. When Alex decided to take up an old hobby all he really was looking for was something fun to do on friday nights. Thrust into another world by a mad mage Alex must adapt quickly to survive. Unfortunately, Alex showed up late to game night and ends up stuck with a pretty mediocre character in this game like reality. Alex must learn to survive in this new world; just because it all seems like a giant game doesn't make death any less terrifying. This will be my first attempt at writing litrpg. I wanted to set myself the challenge of writing every week and I think knowing people might be reading it will motivate me. I've always worked much better with external deadlines. FAQ Why should I read this LitRPG? I am writing because I enjoy it and you should read it if you enjoy it. If I had to make an elevator pitch I would start off by saying my MC is a rogue type character, which seems a relatively uncommon character at least based on what I have read. I also strive to make the supporting cast three dimensional characters, and not just caricatures. Finally, I can't forget that this is a LitRPG so I have tried to make a RPG system with depth, and one that makes sense. How often will you release chapters? At least once a week is my goal. I am a nurse with a baby at home, so between my hospital and my baby I won't have time for more unless something dramatically changes. Will there be romance? I won't rule it out as I try to let my characters write their own stories. However, there will NEVER be a harem, it just isn't something I am interested in. Gore, Profanity, and Traumatising Content? I don't intend to have any of these present at obscene levels, but my tolerance might be different to yours. The tags are mostly there to cover me.

They all breath, grow and influence their surroundings in their own right.Join Teo, a bright young boy with a gift for Arcane Magic, through his journey to tackle the Elements, master his Craft and climb to the very peak of magic itself.Who will he meet, friends or foes? Trusted companions or bitter rivals? Will he be able to find his answer and get to the real meaning of magic, all while wrestling with the complex laws of nature and his own unripe emotions?There is only one way to find out.The story will start with a few chapters of introductions in volume 1 to establish the characteristics and the nature of the world the characters live in. After that, it will probably become a lot more fast-paced and incorporate real story progression. My goal is to fuse the common magic advancement system in a weak-to-strong fashion, together with elements of naturalism, magic combat action and little bits and pieces of science, wherever necessary, to form a bright and interesting story about a boy chasing his dreams about magic.
