《The Newborn》Chapter 40
Advertisement
I beat Edward by a long shot in our races. We ran to the Canadian boarder until the day begun again, then I decided we'd better get back. I beat him, again. When we make it back, I spot Marcus and Emma talking to a girl with long, brown hair. And hoemstly, she looks very familiar.
When my eyes meet Jasper's, I feel that mate pull again and my eyes close before I hear Emma telling the girl, Renesme, who I was. When my dimming crimson eyes open, I find the two of them, right in front of me.
"Mom, this is Renesme," Emma says. "You never got a chance to meet her."
"Of course, hi," Novalee greets.
Renesme smiles. "Hi."
"She's gifted," Alice chirps as she skips over. Lashes van touch your face and show you memories."
"Marcus is gifted, too," Novalee says and Marcus blushes, he gets embarrassed when his mom brags. "He is clairvoyant, and he can read minds."
"My type of guy," Alice teases. "As you know, I'm clairvoyant too."
"I know," Novalee says. "Caius helped him gain control of his power."
"Aro wants him on the guard, doesn't he?" Alice asks, and Nova nods. "I know that because Aro wants me, too, bevauxe I am Clairvoyent, too."
"Excuse me," Marcus says as he walks over, leaving Emma. "Did you say you were clairvoyant?"
"I did," Alice replies as Novalee goes to talk to Renesme.
"Could you teach me more about it?" Marcus pleads. "Edward's been helping me with the mind reading, but the clairvoyance..."
"The visions come at random, don't they?" Alice asks him, Marcus nods. "You can't control them, but I can help you learn more about this ability."

"And I'll get you a Cullen crest like your mother has," Carlisle says as he claps a hand against Marcus's back. "You want a ring, necklace, or bracelet?"
"Ring," Marcus replies.
Carlisle nods and he leaves Alice to helping Marcus Morningstar.

Novalee is sitting inside the house with Jasper now, he wanted to get her alone. He is still trying to deny having feelings, trying to deny that his mate is also a wolf's imprint. The only thing good going for them is the face Novalee chose him instead of suffering through the marriage.
"You know we're mates, right?" Novalee says, pointing it out.
"I try not to think about it," Jasper admits. "It hurts when you left."
"I know," Nova replies. "I try to deny it too, because I'm an imprint and he still hurt me. I'm scared you would, too."
"Novalee, I could never hurt you," Jasper days.
"You know," nova says with a smirk, "we never really broke up."
Jasper laughs, he has just realized this. "You're right, I never noticed. We didn't, did we?"
"No, we didn't," Nova says. "You're not going to, are you?
"No," Jasper replies. "Are you?"
"No," Novalee replies.
Jasper eyes her and he just rushes over, kissing her. Jasper breaths out in relief at the feeling of Novalee's kiss, and the familiar spark. Marcus and Jared in and find them, but both stay quiet. Marcus is smiling because his parents are together. He drags Jared right back outside before they hear their heartbeats.
Jasper pulls away after a minute, kisses Novalee's nose, and sits up straighter. "Now, we're on the right track."
Novalee snorts at this, smiling. "I know, right?"
Jacob goes jogging in against Marcus's protests. "Hey Guys, could you come outside for me? I'm about to..."

"We're coming," Novalee says as she jumps up and watches as Jasper gets up, and she reaches her hand over to his. "Together? Always?"
Jasper takes Novalee's hand and interlocks their fingers. "And forever."
Alice is the first to see Jasper and Novalee holding hands, and she lets out a loud squeal, making anyone with supernatural hearing cringe. Instead of acknowledging them, Novalee nods toward Jacob.
"Renesme, I knew I loved you from the momemt I imprinted," Jacob starts, looking into Nessie's eyes. "You gave me a chance to be the best boyfriend I can be and I am the happiest man in the world. But there's one thing that would make me even happier..." Jacob pulls out a jewelry box and he kneels down on one knee and opens it, revealing a gorgeous engagement band. "Renesme Carlie Cullen, will you marry me?"
Renesme's brown eyes widen as Novalee smiles. "Yes!" She exclaims. "Yes, yes, yes!"
Jacob smiles and he puts the ring on her, then he twirls her in a hug. Novalee kisses jasper, overtaken by the moment. Jasper hugs her as Marcus smiles. He runs inside and grabs his guitar before vamp speeding tothe balcony.
He begins playing Play that Song by train. Marcus smiles at his mom, this is her favorite song. Novalee flashes up and she starts singing it, smiling the entire time. As the guitar playing picks up, Marcus begins singing along with his mother.
When they finish everyone is cheering. Everyone is the coven, and Jacob. Both Morningstar's bow, laughing as they do so. Marcus drops his guitar off in the living room and Esme steals him, she's showing him to his new bedroom. Novalee has her old bedroom back.
"That was amazing," Jacob compliments as Novalee makes it downstairs. "Thanks for singing."
"Do you two want to sing at our wedding?" Renesme asks. "I'm sure Alice won't mind... She has taken over wedding plans already."
"Of course she has," Novalee laughs. "Well, you ask Alice. If she says okay, then we'll sing."
Nessie cheers and she runs off to probably find Alice.
"She's a keeper," Novalee says to Jacob. "Hurt her and I'll kill you."
"You and Edward, both," Jacob mutters before he walks away but he stops. "Have you seen Embry?"
"Once, I hugged Jenna," Novalee replies asbshe spots Marcus coming out.
"Alice just cornered me, her and Ness," Marcus says as he walks up to his mother, Jacob takes this opportunity to walk away. "Apparently we're performing at Jacob and Nessie's wedding."
"Renesme asked me, I told her to run it by Alice," Novalee says. "Wanna hunt, or do you want food?"
"Hunt," Marcus says and sees jasper. "Dad!"
"Yeah?" Jasper asks as he jogs over.
"Wanna hunt with us?" Marcus asks. "As a family?"
"I'd like that," Jasper replies and the trio take off, Emma smiles from where she is with Emmett.

A Titan's Crusade
Erik Thayne spent most of his life being brutally ridiculed and tormented for his weight and physical appearance, among other things. A social pariah and diagnosed with an eating disorder no one has an explanation or treatment for, Erik spent years trying to overcome his issues with his personal image and escape the ridicule and vicious torment of his peers. After years of dedicated effort, and a fresh start in a town away from his childhood and adolescent tormentors, he had finally begun to truly realize what he'd been striving for all along. Only, fate apparently has other plans because in the blink of an eye, Erik found himself snatched from Earth and taken to another universe, another world, where he is offered the chance to be more than he'd ever imagined. Now, he has to fight to restore the Balance between Chaos and Order on a world of swords and magic, in a universe governed by the System's laws, which resemble those of RPGs from Earth. Erik learned to embrace the things about himself that others taught him to hate, using them to reforge his physical identity into something more removed from his old self-loathing. But can he learn to embrace the darkest parts of his mind just as he did the reviled aspects of his body and become who he needs to be to succeed in the task set before him? It might just prove easier to stalk in the dark as a monster than to walk in the light as a man... *This is my first time publishing anything I've written to a public audience. Due to formatting issues, I forwent traditional stat-screens for something a little less problematic, delineating stat screens by separating them from regular text with horizontal lines in a lighter-grey coloration. Let me know if you like them or not. Criticism is entirely welcome, but please don't hate on my work after only reading 1 chapter. This is a writing project I intend to complete but I have committment problems so we'll see how long this goes on. Also, fair warning, as the description implies, the main protagonist is intended to be someone who has been treated cruelly, developed antisocial tendencies, and ultimately has to question his own humanity--or lack thereof. This story is not intended to be brutally dark but I will definitely be trying to follow a darker theme. It is intended to be violent and some scenes later in the story might be...alarming. There will likely also be some light, non-graphic (think more implied with crude jokes and conversation than actual details, there will be no full-blown sex scenes)relationship scenes planned later and if you're opposed to either a bisexual or gay main character, stay away. I haven't yet decided which way he's going to swing but the odds on him being straight are relatively miniscule, and I've always wanted to write a story about a gay man who basically looks like a lumberjack because who doesn't like giving conventional stereo-types the middle finger? This will NOT be a harem story, and I have no intention to focus on romance over action--it's a consequence of character development where I'm concerned, not the be-all-end-all of the story. The cover-art does not, in any way, belong to me. It was an image titled the Druid King (by duskanmarkovic according to the file name) which I found on Google Images. Until I can get something commissioned, this is the best stand-in image I could find.

Hero:Generation
UPDATES WEEKLY The world of Hero: Generation diverges from our own in the 1970s on a night known as “The Aurora Event”. Beautiful and luminescent weather phenomena covered the planet, for ten short minutes every corner of the Earth was underneath a cascade of lights in the sky. It was days later before reports began to filter in, more than could be suppressed by Governments and Nations. The Alphas had arrived. A small percent of the global population began to exhibit otherworldly and super natural abilities, changing the course of humanity. The Vietnam Occupation ended over night, as each ruling nation took action to respond. In the coming years Alphas would begin to change the globe. Russia eventually became an Alpha nation ruled by a mysterious figure only known as Father Winter. America, Europe, and Australia become even larger superpowers as their Alpha populations exploded, in time a United Nations force known as The Guardians was established to police and document the Alpha emergence. The worlds foremost expert in Alpha studies, Dr. Pavel Laghari invented a system known as the Laghari Scale, that scored Alphas on a scale of 1 to 10 across a wide array of parameters ranging from relative physical abilities to other parameters. Now, in most civilized countries Alphas are required to be assessed the moment their powers manifest, or be in strict violation of local and international laws. In this Age of Heroes , The Guardians have designed a new Initiative to recruit younger Alphas and set them on a path to greatness. Every year teenage Alpha’s from all over the globe flock to secure locations to take part in the Guardians crucible. Many will enter, but few will earn the right to call themselves a Guardian.
