Chapter 13, Gymnasium Search
If you love gymnastics, I'm going to find you a gymnasium, I promise.
I got home from the gym, I was laying in bed in my oversized AC/DC shirt when my landline began to ring.
I looked at the Caller ID and it was unfamiliar, I decided to take my chances and answer it.
"Arthur Residence, how may I assist you?"
I waited for the other person to say something but all I heard was silence, I was getting creeped out until something broke the silence.
"Crap, didn't know I was muted. Is this Natalie?"
I was confused, this wasn't Jayla but I wasn't about to hang up.
"This is her, whose speaking?"
I asked politely stifling my laugh, they forget to unmute themselves which had to be pretty funny.
"Javon, from the gym."
"How'd you get my number Javon, from the gym?"
He chuckled at my sentence which caused me to laugh a bit.
"Jayla, she was way too happy when I asked for it."
He answered sheepishly, I'll admit, that was so cute and nice of someone.
We continued to chat but he had hung up due to Jaden and Jayla wanting to go on a live.
I went out of my room and decided to go visit Ainsley.
"Hey, Ainsley."
I walked in and notice her doing a handstand, her room was spacious so she was able to do whatever she pleased.
She got down and hugged me tightly, I noticed she was rewatching old gymnastics videos.
"You really want to be back in the gym, don't you?"
I asked as I looked around her room, taking in all the trophies and medals she's won, she was a natural and it amazed me.
She paused her video and looked at me, she seemed to have been working out for a bit since she was sweat.

"Yeah, I miss having competitions and a coach and even a team! I mean I never spoke to them but I missed them."
Ainsley answered truthfully, I understood that, she was happy and more happier at science fairs or winning soccer games.
I looked at her and give her a soft smile, I had the perfect idea.
If you love gymnastics, I'm going to find you a gymnasium, I promise.
I kissed her forehead and left her room running into mine, turning my LEDs to blue and grabbing my laptop.
I was going to find her a gymnasium and I was going to succeed because I promised her and because I'm the best sister.
After a few hours of working on my laptops trying to find the perfect coach, team and gymnasium, my landline rung.
Seriously, I have a phone for a reason.
"Arthur Residence, Juniper's creation speaking."
I said bluntly, I wasn't trying to talk to anyone today but I couldn't sit there and let my phone ring or what if it was an emergency?
"Hey NJ."
It was Javon, his live must've ended, I took a break from my laptop and searched around to grab my glasses that I use whenever I'm going to be on my laptop for so long.
"Hey Javon, is everything alright?"
I asked patiently as I rummaged around my desk and drawers until I found them, I put them on and went back to my bed.
I continued searching and so far either one was full, shut down, sued or being arrested for a creep.
"Yeah, are you busy? I could call back later if you are."
I silently laughed, he was definitely considerate towards me.
"Nope, just searching for a gymnasium for my little sister. She's into gymnastics."

I answered as I resumed my search for a gymnasium, it was silent for a moment until Javon spoke up.
"Why don't you bring her to the gym tomorrow, I do gymnastics and my dad's my boxing coach. Maybe he can coach her?"
He asked shyly which brought a huge smile to my face, he made my job so much easier.
I obviously said yes and we began to speak about different things.
A few hours later and we had hung up due to being hungry and wanting dinner.
I walked to Ainsley's room, I knocked twice and waited for a response.
"Ainsley, get your bag ready, someone helped me find a coach for you."
I said happily to which she squealed and jumped up from her bed, she ran to me and hugged me tightly before letting go and grabbing her lavender dufflebag from Nike.
"Thank you NJ!"
She was so ecstatic that she packed in under twenty minutes, I was glad to see I brought a smile to her face.
I just hope someone else can find her a soccer team and coach, I did enough miracles for the rest of my life.

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero (Update 09/19/21)
(Updated 09/19/21) Hello and welcome. If you made it this far and the book title sounds interesting, I'm hoping you'll read a few chapters. Here's a sample from chapter 1 of "Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero."Slowly starting to wake up, I become aware. It's like coming out of a fog.Head hurts.Body hurts.There's a conversation in the room. This isn't my bed. Someone is touching my arm. I crack my eyes to look. She doesn't notice. Is she praying for me? Her hands do feel good…do feel... Slipping back unconscious, my eyes slowly close. I didn't notice the soft green glow under Jenn’s hands.*******************"It does look like he saved them or at least stalled them long enough for us to get there." says the man dressed more like a park ranger than an officer of the law. "I did think he was part of it at first" he continues "but the evidence shows he wasn't there and they were certainly fighting on that back road where we found them""I don't care who he is." says a woman as she enters the room. "He saved and protected my Jenn. I will make sure there's not a mark or a scar on him before he leaves". As she continues the few steps over to the men speaking, even though dressed simply in common clothes, there is no doubt the race of elves is in her heritage. The grace and lines of her form. The elegance and lightness of her step. She glances at her daughter, still watching over the young man in the bed. "Do we know who he is yet?" she asks no one in particular."Not yet dear" a man in a white coat responds. A handsome middle-aged man. Fit, but not that of a fighter or ranger. "I asked Talon to bring another identification stone with him. I was hoping ours was just broke, but it's reading the same.""What do you think is wrong?" Talon asks."I'm thinking we just have to wait until he recovers. I have heard of cases where the stone didn't work. Powerful spells can hide or wipe a person clean. I doubt he's a spy or a criminal. Spells like that are just too high level if, they're used at all. My best guess is, there is just some disconnect with him being unconscious. When he wakes, we can ask him or use the stone again then."I find myself waking up in a hospital bed. The attending Doctor finds it odd that he cannot identify my class. An Officer says I’m a Hero for saving a girl from being kidnapped, but he’s asking too many questions for my liking. I know an accusing tone when I hear it. I don’t remember any of it and I need to find my way home.Author’s notes. Original work. First draft and update of chapters 1-16. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. Almost fifty chapters are completed as I pen this introduction. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. The tentative release schedule will be once a week. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6

How to become an evil overlord!
Nicolas Aukye kinda hates life, just kinda. There are many good things about life, and he knows that. The problem is, it's a bit difficult to enjoy life when you are trapped within the white walls of a hospital. Don't get me wrong, he doesn't have cancer or some other depressing incurable illness, nor is he lonely and sad, and he is definitely not just plain cuckoo. There's nothing wrong with him, except for the fact that he has two personalities, but that's not important. It wasn't something he was born with, nor something he resents. He just changed a bit when his mother locked him in an abandoned cellar for a few years, and he had to get on with life eating rats 'n' stuff. As I said, don't sweat the small details, and he's fine, because all that stress is gone once he massacres and wrecks havoc for a bit, oh, not in real life, of course, he's not in jail. Like I explained, perfectly normal, just don't mind the small details too much. (First story, I get C in English so, not a good sign. Trying to improve writing skills.) (casual story, lacks effort. I'm as lazy as Tanaka-kun (reference to tanaka-kun is always listless) you are warned) (Inspired by some of my favourites, Everybody loves large chests, Re:Hamster, World Seed and more) (Please don't kill me for mistakes, I'm probably gonna make a sh*t ton of em) (Also, how do I upload a cover page from my Ipad?)
