《Accidentally Adopted by iBallisticSquid》Squid's House
Advertisement
Izzy's PoV:
We walked up to the door of Squid's house, Sqaishey still had her arm around me (she hadn't let go the entire time), I would never of found this by myself. Squid's house was massive, the driveway was huge and his garage was huge too, I assumed that's where his cars were.
When we got to the door Nicole walked in front and handed Marley's lead to Sqaishey so she could unlock the door. Just as she did from behind us came a scream. We all spun around to see a two girls, they looked extremely spoilt. One of them was dressed in all pink in very expensive clothes. The other, actually didn't look that spoilt, she was in jogging trousers, like me, and a simple T-Shirt. They ran up the drive towards us. "Urmm, who are you?" Nicole asked. "Well, I wouldn't want to tell you!" She said back to Nicole. I was shocked. I walked up to the girl and said, "what's your problem with Nicole?" She looked shocked at first but she quickly regained her composure. "Well," she said, "I believe that Squid deserves better, you idiot." She said turning to Nicole. At that, Nicole ran in crying. I stepped closer to the girl so I faces where only inches apart and said quietly, "Don't you dare hate on Nicole, especially when she is here to see it!" Amy ran in after Nicole as I said this. The girl opened her mouth to talk but the other girl stepped in, pulling the girl away. "I'm really sorry about my sister." The other girl said, she didn't sound anything like as posh as her sister. "We are both massive fans of you," She said turning to Sqaishey, "and by the way I'm Chloe and this is Katie." She said pointing to her sister. Katie then turned to me, "And who are you?" I just stood there if I said who I was I would just get loads of hate. Just at the right moment Squid came out, "She's my second cousin," He said. Squid walked past me and up to the girls, "I'm really sorry about my sister and what she said to Nicole." Squid looked at Sqaishey and she nodded to say that Chloe was telling the truth and that it had only been Katie. "In that case," Squid said turning back around, "get out of my driveway," He said to Katie. "What! Can't I have a picture?!" Katie said. Squid pulled a pen out of his pocket and grabbed her jacket and signed it. "Will that do?" Squid said. I had never seen him so angry. Katie made a noise that I didn't think was possible before storming out of the drive. "Sorry, I probably shouldn't have done that." Squid said turning to Chloe who was laughing. "Don't be. She always gets what she wants so she will just get another one."

While Squid was talking to Chloe me and Sqaishey went into the house. Sqaishey led me into the kitchen where Nicole was sitting at the table crying. When I came in she turned around, looked at me, got up and hugged me. At first I was in shock but then I hugged back. "Thank you. For saying that to that girl," She said letting go. "Amy told us what you said to her." Wait, us? I looked around the room. This was a site that I had wished for all my life and now I was really seeing it. Around the room stood Sqaishey, Amy, Stampy, Netty, Tom and Ash. "Oh my God." I said. I was in shock. "So guys this is Izzy. The girl I was telling you about." Squid had come up behind me and placed his hands on my shoulders. "It's nice to meet you Izzy!" Stampy said. I only managed a small noise that sounded a bit like a hello. They all laughed. "Anyway," Sqaishey said walking over to me, "We need to sort your lip out." I hadn't realised until now that my lip was still bleeding after Craig and his gang got me. Sqaishey told me to sit down while she went to get the first aid kit. Everyone else apart from Squid went into the living room. Squid sat down next to me. "I know your in care." I was surprised but I guess it made sense, Adam would've said something to Squid while we were in hospital. I looked at the floor. "And I know you and Flo ran away and I'm pretty sure that is what you did again today." I nodded. Squid pulled me into a hug. This is what I would've wished for forever but I couldn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to. I was a care kid and there was nothing I could do about it.

There's Always A Catch
Measured, clacking sounds of high-heels can be heard walking towards an elegantly decorated hall; illuminated only by the sun’s rays streaming down from glass panels, grand frescoes decorating its concave ceiling. Two imposing guards stationed at the entrance saluted as she passed by, stopping before the foot of a raised dais. “My Lady.” She reverently said, bowing deeply to the woman sitting on the throne. Eyes lazily opened and a smirk slowly forming on her tinted lips. “So it's time.” ••••• How does one act when luck granted power unimaginable. To rule? Become rich? Murder? Decisions one makes have consequences. And there’s always a catch.

Verdant Heart Seed - A Reverend Insanity fan-fiction
Back in the Late Antiquity Era, the protagonist meets his untimely demise. But Heaven and Earth always leaves a way out, his new cultivation journey begins anew on the path of reclaiming his former strength and defying Fate.---This is a story about a native cultivator of the Gu world. He lived in the era of/before Spectral Soul Demon Venerable (two venerable eras before the main RI plot). He suffered the rise of the demon venerable, barely able to make his arrangements before his death. He manages to rebirth, but doesn't everything go as planned. The story starts off in an isolated small word (grotto heaven), until the MC can grow and reclaim his former glory, before surpassing it. (long way, he was already rank 8 before) The MC has a pragmatic worldview, aligned with what you would expect from someone living hundreds of years in that kind of hostile environment. He doesn't shy away from immoral acts if it benefits him. The MC bears close resemblance to Fang Yuan in this regard, but his goal is not eternal life.One of my aims was to showcase the later introduced cultivation rules into the mortal cultivation (dao marks, attainment etc.) and explore novel scenarios within this highly technical cultivation environment.
