Jordan POV-
"How are her parents doing?" Jordan asked
"Still confused, her mother still thinks her daughter kissed the devil so she needed a little time to herself" Stefan answered, taking a sip of his fourth coffee of the day
"The world is beyond disoriented, can you blame her? Though, I completely understand why Claire did all of that. Its just her caring nature for the most part, she also spent a lot of time with him, who are we to judge her concern?" He said
The world was buzzing with news 24/7, as always, the topic of discussion was Claire. Her death and near death took the world by surprise, her reactions after had made every headline.
People weren't sure if she was the victim they all thought she was. Now everyone recognized her strength and the horrible things she had done, everyone was confused on who she could be. All the killing and destruction, not to mention the complicated relationship with Dianite and Tom put most of the world on edge.
Dianite didn't just manage to scare Claire, but the whole world as well.
Not him though.
He could still see all the good in her, in his eyes she was still an angel. Though some of the world didn't believe his point of view, others couldn't be happier.
Some did see past the bad propaganda the internet was spiting out and acknowledged her kind acts and bravery. Adults were mostly sided towards Claire turning evil, everyone else, teens and kids saw it as a forbidden romancero sorts.
Though Jordan didn't like Dianite much, he was very impressed Claire could see past all the bad at times. If anyone could help him be better it would be her.
Regardless of what both sides think, there was still the matter of bringing her home. Stefan had been working slower for the past couple of days, clearly depressed over Claire.

Though Jordan still worked on his youtube video uploads, he spend more time trying to keep everyone from going insane. While Claire was bringing balance to the world of Mianite, Jordan was trying to bring balance in this world.
Keeping Claire's family in high spirits, Stefan from shutting down, and keeping the media from further training Claire's reputation.
It was hard work, but worth it. Though Tom made things difficult on the Stefan department.
"Lover boy, snap out of it. I know both of you are butt hurt that my man Dianite will win over the girl. Stefan, you take comfort in knowing you never stood a chance, she probably hates you. Jordan, you're as sweet as sugar, she probably would have liked you, but certain women like a bad boy" Tom said as he came in to the lab
"Why do you still come here anyways?" Asked Stefan, angrier this time but never looking away from his screen station
"Im essential to our success. Plus I wanted to laugh in your face, even other me is still at the top of the love charts Stefan. I mean how could she not love me right?" He said
"Tom! This isnt funny, people think she is associated with the devil!" Said Jordan
Seeing people hate a good person who was put in an impossible scenario just made his blood boil. How could they not see her kind intentions. For instance, right now she was cooking dinner for herself and Champwan, Claire knows he has a hard day ahead of him and is trying to help him out. How is that evil?
Jordan couldn't take the stress any longer and decided to go work out, he still had to go to his personal trainer everyday even though he had missed a few days as of late.

Right now it seemed like the perfect solution
"I'm leaving. Tom, don't provoke Stefan, he could kill you with his fancy machines if he wanted to" Jordan added while at the door
"That's actually true. By the way, Claire is heading out for the day if something happens I'll let you guys know. Though I have a feeling the world would tell you guys before I could" said Stefan not even bothering to turn around from his working station
It took Jordan some time to pack up some of his stuff in which Tom continued to bother Stefan.
Tom just loved looking for trouble.
"Thanks. Keep an eye on her for us, Tom you're coming with me. I have a feeling you will get yourself killed with all the energy you have today" Jordan said, pulling his best friend out of the room.
When he saw the slightest of concern in his best friend he knew the gym could wait.
"You know what, we are gonna go meet up with Tucker and Sonja today. I think we could all use each others company. The media has been drowning us more as of late, it's making us go insane" said Jordan
Without further debate, they headed over.

Cinder Roots (Undergoing a Rewrite)
This novel is currently undergoing a major rewrite, as I noticed several plot points that needed to be revamped. I'll leave the chapters I've posted here to anyone curious to see how everything started, but I'll be posting the rewritten story as a new novel in the future. The characters will be the same, but the journey will be more understandable and hopefully, a lot more fun to read. -------- First, everything was fire, it killed, it consumed, and it gave him life. He was just a tree, born in the biggest forest that remained in the world, full of dryads, naiads, elves and treants, but he was alone. He couldn’t see. He couldn’t talk. Curiosity plagued him. He dreamed of wandering the land, but could only wonder what stood outside the reach of his roots. The tree was tired of waiting. He decided to not just dream, but to act. How could he survive against a invading empire, a grand conspiracy that threatened to shake the foundations of the world, and the raw danger that lies within these woods? With pure determination. Warning - There are quite a few POV changes in the first chapters, but that'll change after the introduction is done, as I'll be focusing on the MC perspective only.
