《The Gotham Ghost King》So What?
Advertisement
"It's been five minutes and I wouldn't suggest leaving me alone for much longer!!!" I yelled at the door.
Nightwing came in, and leaned against the wall. "Sorry. I was calling someone. I've got someone coming in for you in three minutes."
"Well, I REALLY wouldn't suggest leaving me here for much longer."
"Why?"
I pointed at the corner of the metal table, where the corner of the table was now rounded with a picture of a sword forming on it in sharpie.
Nightwing looked at the picture, and then slowly looked up at me. "Do you want to come out here?"
"What do you think?"
I followed the 'superhero' out of the room and through the police station until we entered a lounge.
After we both sat down, Nightwing asked "So, do you have any medical issues?"
"I have ADHD, but just to the point where I can get antsy when I'm left alone, but that's nothing. I'm dyslexic to the point where words are almost impossible to read, and I'm colorblind."
"What kind of colorblind?"
"I'm fully colorblind."
Nightwing looked at me with a tiny bit of sympathy. "Really? No colors at all?"
"Life is just a black and white picture."
"Has your eyesight always been like that?"
"Yeah. Ever since I can remember."
After a few more minutes of absent chatting, a solid knock was heard, and Nightwing jumped up to answer it. After he opened the door to let in Commissioner Gordon, who I met earlier, and a tall man.
He looked at me and exclaimed "You're that kid that flipped me off earlier!"
I shrugged, and replied "So what? This is Gotham. I'm Nico."
"The thing that shocked me most was the backflip you did. My name is Bruce Wayne. I was contacted by Batman and Nightwing."

"For what reason?" I asked, immediately put on guard.
"I would like to see if you would like a place to stay for the foreseeable future."
I leaned back in my chair. "Okay then. First of all, how 'bout you tell me some facts about yourself."
"As I said, my name is Bruce Wayne and I am the owner and CEO of Wayne Enterprises. I live in a more secluded area of Gotham, as my house is located in a forest that I own. I am 34 years old and have two adopted boys, Richard and Jason."
"Okay. My name is Nick Dalton, you can call me Nico, and I am 17 years old. I know more about self defense then the average adult and I have a boyfriend that will also be joining me tomorrow, whether I join you or not.
Bruce asked "So you're gay?"
"Yes. Gay and asexual. Got a problem with that?" I growled defensively, my arms automatically crossing and my feet planting on the floor.
"No. None at all."
"Moving on, if I am going to be staying with you for any period of time, I expect to have my boyfriend stay with us."
"Sure. But let me make it clear that you two will not be sharing the same room," Bruce seriously replied.
"Due to personal reasons, that arrangement will be unacceptable."
"Why exactly?" Bruce questioned.
"Night terrors. I can, however, promise that we will be doing nothing inappropriate while in the same room."
"We can discuss this at a later time."
"Agreed."
"It there anything else I should know about you?"
"I have temper issues and need my personal space."
"Understandable. Anything else, or would you like to go to my house?"
"Let's go."

Kat here! I feel like the title is horrible, but I lost my voice and feel like schist. FYI, the next two chapters or so are going to be introductory chapters, so they'll be kinda slow.

School-life & Swordfights: A Clubs and Stubs Tale
Warning: Clubs and Stubs contains strong language and situations throughout that may not be suitable for younger readers. "This story takes place in a fantasy world with a modernish setting. It mainly follows four students of Hardires High School who are members of one of the greatest Team Arena Squads in the history of gladiatorial school athletics. Already two-time high-school world champions, they have entered their fourth and final year of high school in hopes of capturing a third straight world championship—something that no other school on the continent has accomplished. As they prepare for an upcoming match with a rival school, it becomes evident that keeping their two-and-a-half-year winning streak alive will be tougher than expected. As both personal and external problems abound for the student-gladiators, can they manage to keep it together under the constant pressure of being the perfect fighting unit? A blend of action, drama, adventure, and humor collide in this brand-new series!" Thanks so much for checking out my story! This is the first time that I've released any of my work to a public space so any feedback, be it positive or negative (but please be respectful if so) would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping that this story is only the beginning of a long-running series of short stories set in the Clubs and Stubs universe. Temporary Book Cover Design by David Watson The release schedule is rather tentative, but the goal is to release a chapter every 2-4 days. I want to make sure that every scene is the best it can be before it’s released, so it may take a bit longer especially if it's a longer chapter. However, no chapter should take more than a week to be released. Each scene varies in length, but are usually between 1,000 to 2,000 words.

Again
Most villains, no matter how terrifying, are defeated by a hero on the first try. The hero may be forced to flee or otherwise delay the real confrontation, but it’s still certain that he will win when it occurs. But some villains simply defeat all comers. Against an opponent like that, the only options are to give up or to try again. --- This story is a participant of the WriTEr's pledge. In short, I promise to finish it, and may I be Hall of Shamed if I don't.

A loose thread
The goddess picked him up. He tried to struggle free, but her grip only tightened. Eventually her thumb caught his head, pulling it backwards. He stared helplessly as she brought her free hand closer, revealing a small vial in her massive hand. She pressed it to his lips, and he felt the contents flow into him. He tried not to drink it, but his body would not listen. Despite his revulsion, his body ignored him by drinking deeply. "Drink and forget. I will give you everything you ever wanted. A loving family. A comfortable home. And then, " Her grip tightened, and forcing the air out his lungs. He coughed up the strange liquid and caused more to spill. “And then, you will pay for your defiance. On your twentieth birthday you will remember.” She pulled the vial away and turned him to look at her. “You will remember, just as everything you love is taken from you, right before your eyes…” Her voice trailed off and his world went dark. .... The above leads right into the story. The first chapter is a bit rough as the MC (a child at the time), hurts himself rather badly. I will try to include similar warnings on chapters as the story goes on, but I want to be up front that I may miss or forget things. Many of the tags are included so I can have flexibility writing the story. I am posting this largely to hold myself accountable to keep writing. Chapters will be short, but I am planning to post weekly. This is the first thing I have written (you've been warned). I am enjoying the story and I hope you will too. Please feel free to let me know what you think of the story as it progresses.
