《His Possession》TWENTY-TWO
Advertisement
There was guns laying across the floor with men shot dead. I would say it would be a good count of 50 men dead. Blood splattered all over the walls, the floor, and across dead faces. I stood there shocked. Jaxon and Landon walked ahead and checked the bodies to see who killed these men. My mouth hung open while I just took in the image of these men looking up or to the side with nothing but dim eyes. These men died instantly. You can tell because by the bullet holes in their head, they can't survive that.
"Well shît. I didn't think they would even come." Landon said while kicking at one of the dead body.
"Yeah. No shît." Jaxon said while running his hand through his hair.
"W-what- H-how?" I said while I lifted up my dress so it won't soak in blood. I made my way to the front of the bodies and to the hallway that leads out of this room.
"Well we called for back up like an hour ago before we got caught but we thought they weren't going to show up but I guess not." Landon said.
"I-I. Let's just go please I need to leave this." I said while holding myself and looking around like if one of those men would wake up and take me to a room.
They nodded and I lead the way. Jaxon made calls and telling us to hurry because someone was coming for us.
"This seems way to easy getting out don't ya think." Landon said while he open one of the door. It lead us to a bar that was close so we walked out of the bar and there was a car waiting for us.
Jaxon looks around but just shakes his head and make his way out to the car. He holds the door open for me and I climb in. I lean my body on the door and my head on the window.

I stare out and watch the blue sky turns to a darker shade then soon turn to black.
Memories flash through my head of what happen all those weeks and all the torture that happen to me.
I jump when I felt a hand on my thigh. I turn and see Jaxon looking at me with a sad face. I turn my head back to the window but I felt his hand move my dress up. My breathing hitches but he stops. He hand tighten around the dress and I look down and see the pinkish red mark with a scab that is turning to a scar that it's trying to heal where I was stabbed on my thigh. I quickly try to pry off his hand so I can cover the wound but he pulls me towards him and makes me sit on his lap.
I slowly let go of my breath but he puts his head in my neck.
"I'm sorry." He murmured.
"W-what?"
"I'm sorry I wasn't there to stop all the things they did to you."
"Jax-"
"I was trying. I was trying to find where they took you, but I was to dumb to not find you fast enough."
"Jaxon-"
"I'm sorry they touched you in places that you did not like. I'm sorry for not stopping him. It's my fault he took you. It's my fault that he came after you. It's my fa-" I moved away and gripped his face.
"Quit saying you're sorry if anything it was my fault I left. You told me they were after me but yet I still took off. It was my fault that I didn't try hard enough to fight."
He scowled at me and shook his head. "No don't blame yourself it was my fault. I should have never brought you into my life-"

"No. I brought this to myself. You told me to stay away yet I still showed up. It's my fault. I put this all on myself."
He looked at me and sigh because he knows that this argument would go back and forth. He leaned his head on the car head rest and closed his eyes while his hands creased my thighs. I sighed and leaned against his chest.
I know I'm not supposed to like him, but being in his arms and away from Sañtiago just makes me feel safe with him or Landon.
I closed my eyes and soon off I was drifting off to sleep.
***
The morning sun rays hit my eyes and I groaned in response. I shifted till the light didn't hit me and I snuggled up with the warm chest.
My eyes shot open. Jaxon was sleeping with no shirt or pants on just him in his boxers and his lips partly part with a arm snaked around my waist.
When did I get here?
I look down and see I was in one of his shirt.
Just his shirt.
I rolled my eyes and buried my face deeper in the pillow. I closed my eyes and was about to go back asleep but when he shifted and I felt him tighten his hold on me.
"Please don't let this be a dream." He said whispering more to himself. I look up and see him slowly opening his eyes.
I gave him a small smile and he blinks his eye twice then his hand tighten on my hip.
"Jordan?"
"Mhmm." He sighed and closed his eyes while he brought me closer to his chest. He played with my hair while I drew patterns on his back.
"I can't lose you again. Please don't leave me. You keep me sane." He said tightening his hold.
I didn't know what to say so I stayed quiet.
I slowly started to move away but he didn't let me go.
"Jaxon."
"Mhmm."
"I need to go pee and you're holding me back."
"Ugh!" He then let me go and I let a small smile go on my face and I went and did my business and walked out. He was barely getting out of bed and I couldn't help but stare at his tattoos.
"I'm going to the kitchen." I stared and walked out.
I felt him behind me and I went to the fridge and took out eggs.
"C-can you tell me what they did."
My body froze and I dropped the eggs.
Memories flashed through my mind of him and Louis.
"I-I-I...."

Core Defect
In the 264 years since the Great Singularity Wars, the world has been irrevocably changed. Technologies like nanobots and rogue artificial intelligences have caused the planet's wildlife to evolve in dangerous and powerful ways, pushing humanity to the verge of extinction. However, the remaining survivors are not without ways to fight back. Nanotech can enhance humans just as well as beasts, but perhaps most surprisingly, humanity has found an unexpected ally: a group of human-neutral AIs called Daemons. Val is a 22-year old woman striving to become a User: a nano-empowered human paired with a Daemon that serves as society's final and most powerful line of defense. When a critical issue in her nanosystem's core seemingly leaves her unable to serve as a User, she's given a difficult choice: give up on her dreams or accept a potentially unstable AI, Noir, as her Daemon partner. Val and Noir are stronger together than they are apart, but can they survive long enough to unlock their potential? Can they find a place among the other pairings like them, shunned by society but essential to civilization's survival? If Users are humanity's last line of defense, welcome to the sacrificial first line: the Defects. Updates are currently once a week, aiming for the weekend. Chapters usually 2k-3k in length.

Journey West 5000
With her parents murdered and her brother abducted, a trainee Monk of the Gun pursues the one responsible, the Bull Demon King, undefeated Warlord of the Crimson Army.Struggling to track down her enemy while braving the dangers of the wilds, she enlists the help of Sun Wukong, but 500 years under a mountain have taken its toll. Unstable and weakened, will he be more hindrance than help? Can he become the warrior he once was?A Monk and a Monkey journey across a world...... where the remnants of technology are seen as magic, while pockets of humanity strive to drag themselves out of ignorance.... where the descendants of animal-human hybrids, once created as instruments of war, now seek to dominate the world as demons.... where beings who call themselves Immortals and Gods preoccupy themselves with selfish pastimes, ignoring everything else. Among other things, a story about growth, grit, and being better than the person you were yesterday. Here's my rambling on why I'm writing Journey West 5000. Journey West 5000 is my crazy ambitious writing project to adapt a classic epic called "Journey to the West" for a global, modern audience. It's a sci-fi story disguised as fantasy, and has some road trip + monster of the week elements (as does the original Journey to the West). No system, definitely no harem, gradual power progression. Hmm, what else can I put here so potential readers know what to expect? My writing style for now is mostly "show don't tell", because I believe that readers don't need to have everything pointed out to them, and that they should be allowed to make up their own minds about characters based on the actions of those characters. I'm also trying to be less long-winded (a weakness pointed out by some friends) in order to write according to something Neil Gaiman said, which is to write as though I'm the one who has to pay for every word, not the reader. This will bring down my chapter word counts, and might drive away potential readers, but I believe there's value in learning to compress and be concise. All chapters posted here will have been edited. Constructive criticism, comments, and feedback would be very much welcome and appreciated. Please, please help point out any typos or grammatical mistakes, I'm striving to minimize those as much as possible. Above all, I hope you enjoy my story.
