《Accidentally Adopted by iBallisticSquid》Squid's House

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.

World Master
Hey! I once lived on your world back in 2056. But that was a long time ago and there’s probably no records of my existence. Or, maybe, I haven’t even been born yet… …I’m still figuring out of the timelines correspond. Anyways, I was or will be, or whatever you want to call it (maybe I am?), John Pitcher, a resident at St. Jude’s Hospital for the Mentally Ill. I was a computer programmer and my parents had me admitted there because I was convinced that I had been contacted by Set, the Egyptian god of chaos, about creating a world. Well, apparently, I’m something akin to the great times a hundred grandson of over 10 000 gods, and they didn’t want me to live an ordinary, dull life (well, except for the god of normalcy, but he doesn’t count). Set gave me three years to prepare myself. This begins right at the end of those three years. [participant in the NaNoWriMo Royal Road challenge] I originally had this as part of the prologue, then I realized that it made a better synopsis. Please note: this might seem a bit clunky because I haven't done a lot of writing, and this is supposed to be a kind of prequel to another story that I plan on doing in the future. I will not be fully explaining everything but instead will be explaining things in that other story. This is mainly to help fill in the lore of the world so that people will have at least a basic idea of how things function. Regardless of that, that story won't be written for at least another year, so deal with it. Note: I am using ideas from several different authors in order to make sure that this can be a proper story. You may or may not recognize where I got them. I am not writing a Fanfiction and do not claim these as my own. I will add to a list of titles below as I find myself using those ideas. World Keeper (obviously) The Wandering Inn The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound (not yet, but eventually) A bunch of others that I haven't thought of yet
