《Sophie Swan: P.L》Chapter nine:
Advertisement
Today is mine and Bella's birthday. The thing is about our birthday is that Bella doesn't like it. How can someone not like their birthday? It's crazy. But she has this thing about ageing, which is stupid, especially now that she is dating a vampire.
I woke up quite early to dress myself up a little for mine and Bella's birthday.
Dad came into my room and handed me wrapped presents. Excitedly I ripped them open to find the very books I had been craving to have for ages. As well as a stunning Queen vinyl album. To die for I say.
"Thank you so much dad I love them." I gave him a phat hug and he chuckled at my response.
"My pleasure kiddo. Come on let's go give these to your sister."
"I thought she said no presents."
"Mine don't count."
"Hahaha alright come on."
I lead the way into Bella's bedroom, Bella still in bed.
"Happy birthday."
I jumped onto Bella's bed and gave her a massive hug. "Happy birthday big sister." I practically squeezed into her ear. Oh well.
"Happy birthday little sister." Bella a ruffled my hair a bit.
"Hey, not the hair." I say trying to fix it. I had it in fresh curls to give my fit a little more umph.
Bella turned to our dad who was holding her gifts. "I thought we agreed no presents."
"Well the one from me is not wrapped so it doesn't count."
Dad gives Bella a pink camera with a cute pink bow on top. "That's actually great. Thanks dad."
"Uh, it goes with this one from your mum. We coordinated. Well she coordinated me. It's to put your pictures in, from senior year. Senior year. How'd you get so old so fast?"

"I didn't. It's not that old."
"I don't know... is that a grey hair?"
"No. No way."
I shake my head at dad playing his jokes. He smiles at me and gives me a jokey wink and smiles. Bella turns from the mirror that she frantically rushed to and faced me and dad.
Dad puts up his hands. "Happy birthday." And with that he leaves.
"It's really funny." She says sarcastically at me as I'm in a fit of giggles, eventually after about a few minutes I get myself together. I up and follow him and wait downstairs for Bella to get ready.
Once sleepy beauty is ready we head for school.
We rock up to school, Angela, Eric, Mike and Jessica are standing outside their cars. I wave to them as Bella parks the truck.
"Today's the big day girls. 'R and J' essay due?"
"Oh, yeah." Bella and I say simultaneously.
"Wherefore art thou, Sophie?"
I smile at Mike. "I wanna take a picture of you guys. My mum wants me to put together, like a scrapbook full of memories." I go in and stand in between Mike and Eric, they both put their arms around me and I them.
"Oh, good. Cullen's here." Mike is always like this around Edward I honestly don't get why. Mike tried to drag me away from Bella and the approaching Edward, however I simply get out of his hold and walk up next to Bells.
"Do I look more mature Eddie boy?" I say jokingly.
He shakes his head slightly chuckling to himself. "Happy birthday."
"Thanks."
"Don't remind me."
"Bella your birthday is definitely something to celebrate." I nod in agreeing with Edward.
"But my ageing is not." Is she really going to go there right now?

"Your ageing? I think 18 is a little young to start worrying about that."
"It's one year older that you."
"No, it isn't. I'm 109." Jesus Christ he's old.
"Wow. Maybe I shouldn't be dating such an old man. It's gross. I should be thoroughly repulsed."
They start making out and I turn away. "That would make me thoroughly repulsed any day." I mumble.
"We have to go to class."
"Ok."
"Gladly away from you two." Bella and I turn to leave.
"Wait a second. Someone wants you." Bella and I turn to see that Jacob was here.
"Bella, Soph."
"Jacob."
"Hey Jakey." I give him and hug, he returns the hug and I instantly feel that he has grown some muscles.
I decided that for my birthday I wanted to skip, so Jake agreed with me and we decided to hang out together.

A Pirate's Life for Mei
In the future, prisoners are no longer kept in traditional prisons. They're put into comas and permanently dwell within realistic, full-dive virtual worlds. Mei is a journalist and activist falsely convicted of political crimes after accusing an official of sexual harassment. She finds herself in chains aboard a ship in the Caribbean, a prison realm set in 1675, in the age of sail. Oversight is corrupt and the guards are violent. While most prisoners sullenly endure their hardship, Mei knows that this world has a loophole: prisoners can buy their freedom — if they can get the gold. And this also happens to be the golden age of piracy. Yo ho, yo ho. It's a pirate's life for Mei. Book 1 Mei arrives in the Caribbean and battles for her freedom against the devilish English navy, is kidnapped by Caribs, and comes face-to-face with a jaguar. She recruits fellow prisoners in an attempt to steal a boat and flee the prison colony. Book 2 Mei and her crew arrive in Sint Maartin and learn that the French and the Dutch are at war! As Lance, Juan, and Cheeto face their pasts, the crew becomes privateers. Their first prize: a ship full of rum and a week of drunken debauchery in Curacao. This puts them on the trail of Aztec gold buried deep in jungle ruins. An adventure filled with doublecrosses and stealing their first true ship! This is the All Ages version. Mature content is available on Patreon.

Mistakes Lead To Success
Mistakes were made and it led to the death of Natalie Freemen. Her soul was captured and cared for by an young god but such protection come with a cost. Instead of taking the original offer she decided to make a deal. She would rome the multiverse and steal the essence that thrives them. In return she could become a demigod. Updates at random Romance is not the focus but a major plot point. I will take suggestions and corrective criticism. *Important Note* This makes for sense as you read along. This story is created by the viewer but there is a twist. Some chapters are static, meaning that it is to propel the plot. Others have polls that will affect other chapters but without a question. This means you don't know what it effects or in which chapter. I wanted to added this effect to create a suspense, something I didn't feel as much in other reader interactive stories. Your vote could create fortune or misfortune for the main character. I know what it will effect because have a chart that tells me the possible routes. You just have to wait and see what your choice have done. I'll even write which poll effects the chapter in the authors note. Characters could die in the story and they won't be leads anymore. In comments you can ask for a detail chart for each poll but it will only be for one answer per poll. I will chose the most requested answer. I do not own the photo.

The Princess And Her Warmonger
"Let me tell you a true story about a mouse and a Warmonger, and the unlikely relationship that sprouted between them in the time of endless war." Nostalisk is a world in endless constant war. The Factions of this world endlessly fight for power, this fighting called the Great Wars, a war that has been alive for over four million years. Currently, one of the largest Factions has withdrawn from the endless fighting. This Faction, known as the Kingdom, hopes to forget their past of endless bloodshed and how they were almost destroyed because of it. In the Kingdom, Princess Isalene, the only princess of the Kingdom, is stuck choosing a new personal guard after her previous one died. Despite her father, King Robert, helping her choose a new guard, Isalene decides to head to the arena to see how the knights on the list her father gave her act outside of the eyes of royals. When she arrives at the arena, she sees a knight fighting that is not on the list her father gave her. Named Cruel Knight, this knight is a vicious knight with confusing morals. Despite hating violence, Princess Isalene can't help but be drawn to the knight and their graceful yet cruel fighting style and strange weapons. Princess Isalene continues to watch them and soon learns that Cruel Knight is a Warmonger named Sharia, and is female at that, meaning she is a prisoner. She isn't in there for something simple as disobeying a direct order or killing a noble, but for prolonging a war. Despite knowing this, Princess Isalene can't stop thinking about the Warmonger and suddenly gets a "smart" idea. She'll make Sharia her new personal guard to find out more about her! What could go wrong? And so begins the odd relationship between Sharia The Warmonger and Princess Isalene. One is a peace-loving sheltered naive princess who hates violence and the other is a vicious, cold, twisted, and cruel Warmonger who hates the kind of peace Isalene and the current Kingdom loves. Polar opposites. Yet, even the Warmonger can't help but grow a strange liking to her new "annoyance". But, can the two really get along? After all, Sharia's whole mindset sees Isalene as a waste, and it seems that everyone Isalene talks to tells her to fire Sharia before something terrible happens. But, then again, during this time of budding danger, this odd couple may be what the Kingdom needs. After all, when a large faction such as the Kingdom starts growing soft and weak, they become a rather irresistible target. [After thinking on it, I decided to start a re-write of The Princess And Her Warmonger, adding more details, fixing the switching POVs somewhat, and fixing some of the issues with the story. Don't worry, all of the chapters are still here, I am just making new ones and replacing the old chapters one at a time] (This story can also be found on Scribble Hub and Webnovel) [Cover art is not mine]
