《Diego x Reader - Dare》20 - Saving Allison
Advertisement
Can we just stop and talk about the softest thing?
David Castañeda was asked what he would do in a real life apocalypse situation and he said he'd go and smoke a joint with his dad.
Idk he's just too adorable
Y/N's P.O.V.
I laid on Klaus' floor, sending Diego another text. I was definitely getting worried now.
"Has he answered yet?" Klaus asked, playing with his wool and knitting needles.
"Nope." I sighed, dropping my phone onto my stomach. The door burst open and Five came in.
"Get up, both of you. We're going." He announced, pulling in his blazer. I groaned, sitting up.
"Where?" I asked.
"To save the world." Five said as if it was the most simple thing.
"Oh, is that all? Great." Klaus sat up and pulled his socks on.
"What Pogo said got me thinking. I had to jump to the future to figure out when it happened, but Dad, he can't time travel. So how'd the crazy bastard actually know to kill himself a week before the end of the world?" Five questioned.
"Well..." I began.
"Don't answer. That was purely rhetorical." Five sassed.
"Truth is, our whole lives he's been telling us we'd save the world from an impending apocalypse."
"Yeah, but I always thought he just said that to scare us into doing the dishes." Klaus mumbled and I snorted.
"So did I, but what if the old man really knew it was going to happen?" Five suggested.
"Knew how?" I asked and Five sighed.
"No idea. But his plan worked. We all came home. Since we're here we might as well save the world." Klaus looked at me and I shrugged. We followed Five out of the room and Diego suddenly ran into his.

"Where the Hell Have you been? I've called you like 50 times." I glared at him.
"Jail." He said and I sighed.
"You know what? I'm not even surprised anymore." I muttered and Five snorted.
"Long story. Where's Luther?" He asked.
"Haven't seen him since breakfast. You know that meeting you missed where Y/N punched him hard enough to knock him over?" Klaus grinned.
"Really? Nice." Diego gave me a half smile. He lifted my chin and looked at my bruises.
"Who'd you fight?"
"Luther threw me across the room before running off to get high. That's nothing compared to the bruising on my ribs and leg." I said dismissively.
"He did what?!" Five and Diego yelled in unison.
"He also almost crushed Klaus' throat and drank half the liquor in this place, but that was yesterday." They both looked at Klaus and I in disbelief.
"Shit." Diego muttered, before kissing my head.
"I'll kill him later. Right now, Allison is in danger."

Five leaned on me slightly as he limped into the bar that we found Luther in. The boy seemed to barely leave my side since I told him and Diego what happened yesterday.
Diego and Klaus were only a few steps ahead of us.
"Leave me alone." Luther mumbled, drinking his beer.
"Give us a minute." Diego said, sitting down and I pulled both boys away.
"Maybe they'll brood each other to death." Klaus joked and I rolled my eyes. They talked for a few minutes and suddenly Luther jumped up.
"Jesus Christ!" He yelled as he ran out. I barely dragged Five out of his way as he ran to the door.
It wasn't long before we were all in the car driving towards Harold Jenkins' place.

Diego sat between Luther an I whilst Five drove and Klaus sat in shotgun.
"Hey. Can you go any faster?" Luther asked, leaning forward.
"Ask me again and I'll give Y/N the cigarette lighter to burn you." Five replied instantly and Diego wrapped his arm around me.
"You okay?" I asked in a murmur so only Diego could hear.
He didn't reply, he only kissed my head and the rest of the drive was in silence.
As soon as we arrived it was like a race to get inside, but none of us expected what was waiting.
"Allison! No!" Luther dropped to his knees beside her. Klaus tried to help, but collapsed against the couch. Diego took my hand and squeezed it lightly, both of us knowing there was nothing we could do. Five looked down at Allison then at me with hurt in his eyes and I put my hand on his shoulder.

Vylt: The New Dawn
Mankind finds a way to use magic, but this great power comes with a price. A transaction that can't be refunded. Nora Hayes is a simple girl whose only worry was graduating high school. That is, until she faces this new reality. How will she, her family, and her friends deal with the aftermath of such event? Currently revising all the existing chapters. New ones coming after that! _________________________________________________________________ Sneak Peek: Next to the kitchen, there was a small squared table and two wooden chairs, each made from different wood. The bookshelf behind those contained a decent amount of books. I stood up to take a closer look at them and even opened a few out of curiosity. While I could read most of them just fine, some of the oldest-looking books were written in a language I didn't recognize. "Hm? Was my hand always blue?" I didn't remember. In fact, I couldn't recall anything about myself, not even my name. Inspecting the rest of my body, I found that it was the same all over. I didn't feel sick; quite the opposite. Still, my blue skin felt out of place for some reason. Trying to find an answer to my situation, I kept investigating the odd room. _________________________________________________________________ Big thanks to Alice Griffin for helping me out with the cover.

Chronicles of Xod (returning from hiatus)
After a long recovery over a chronic motion sickness issue, I feel I'm ready to return to writing this book. It might be slow at first, but I'm hoping to pick up where I left off. I apologize again for the long hiatus. The pages following are a true account. An account of how I, Josh--a teenage nerd from modern suburbia--ended up in a strange world filled with fantastic magic, bizarre creatures, and terrifying dungeons. Despite the troped-up fantasy feel of the world, this is hardly an ordinary tale. For one, don’t expect a happy ending. With the trials I’ve been through, the horrors I’ve seen and the atrocities I’ve committed, believe me when I tell you, this is not a happy tale filled with friendly rainbow bears or teenage flying unicorns. It’s more likely you’ll finish this book mentally scarred as I will not spare the details of my unfortunate adventures. With the help of my trusted companion Gui, I gain an insight that no one else in the world has. This knowledge allows me to exploit and, for lack of a better term, metagame the system which gave me a clear advantage over its residents. “With great power...,” someone might begin to quote to me. In my defense, I think maybe even you, reader, might have acted similarly with how this reality changed my view of good and evil. This story will be updated regularly on Wednesdays around 6 PM. There will only be about 1000 words per update. The focus is to finish the story before doing any major changes or editing. Please read as if this is a work in progress, not a finished product. Feel free to let me know if you see any error, whether glaring or minor. If you help me out, I'll be sure to add you to a thank you list at the front of the book when it is published. Chronicles of Xod is a first-person fantasy novel that follows the adventures of a young man from Earth. Through unknown circumstances, he finds himself in a fantasy world where life is not all wonders and happy endings. The story takes common fantasy concepts from my favorite video games, books and movies and gives them an adult edge. It also introduces some taboo concepts often glossed over by stories written for broad audiences. The style is meant to be immersive and heavily detailed. The short novel will be written in a way that attempts to bring a sense of realism to an unrealistic genre. Where there are realistic consequences and dangers in a world populated with violent monsters, cruel demons, bloodthirsty undead, and immoral bandits. In this fantasy world, the inhabitants are essentially gender blind as far as sexuality is concerned. There is also more variation amongst male and female physiology. This isn't meant to be any kind of promotion or demotion of social behavior in reality. Just a concept I thought would be an interesting idea to have in a fantasy setting. I highly discourage anyone from reading this material if you are personally concerned with being offended or traumatized. Both violent and sexual content will be graphically detailed. All characters involved in sexual scenes are mature and of the age of consent(18+).

At The Lions Gate
In the 20th century America reinvented itself. Devastated by depression, scarred by war, rocked by a revolution, Americans banded together to preserve their country and their freedom. They had faith in themselves, faith in one another, and for those who believed…faith in God. This novel tells the story of one American who lived through those turbulent years….years that would test his character and the character of a nation. For Josh Sanders it begins in 1935. A star athlete in school, pro football is a ticket out of poverty during the Great Depression; but when his father, a WWI veteran, is killed during a robbery, Josh’s spirit is broken, and with it his boyhood dream. To honor his father Josh joins the war effort in 1942, distinguishing himself as a fighter pilot, until a fateful decision near the end of the war changes the course of his life once again. But many years later, after a stint as a boxer and a failed marriage, Josh finds his calling…at a time when the country is at war with itself. The year is 1968. King and Kennedy have been killed, race riots are breaking out, and Vietnam has become an albatross, causing massive protests across the country. In the streets of San Francisco Josh watches a crowd of students march for peace. As a veteran he’s conflicted, toward the war and those who oppose it. But when he encounters Rosy Goldin, a spirited young protester in need of help, a voice from the past calls him to action. His good intentions are soon tested when Rosy falls in love with the fugitive anti-war activist Erick White, a young man determined to oppose the war at all costs, against the wishes of his own father. Fearful of what happens to Rosy, Josh confronts Erick, unwilling to be part of his plan to escape…until he meets the boy’s father. A high-powered criminal attorney, Karl White is also a flag-waving patriot demanding that his son follow the law. But as White makes his case Josh is jolted by a painful war-time memory, a crisis of conscience that will soon determine the fate of Rosy Goldin and Erick White.
