《Adopted By Laurenzside》Chapter 3
Advertisement
I wake up in the morning. I grab my teddy and head downstairs going only one step at a time and holding onto the railing tightly. When I get downstairs I see mommy and daddy talking to some other people with pink and brown hair, in the living room. The pink lady points to me.
"Marlee is up." The lady says. Daddy smiles and comes and picks me up. He brings me closer to the people and introduces them.
"That is Aunt Lizzie." Daddy says and points to the girl with pastel pink hair. "And that is Uncle Joel." Daddy points to the boy with brown hair like mine but darker.
"Hello." I say and smile at them.
"Hello! Aww she is so sweet." Lizzie says petting my crazy hair down.
"She sure is." Joel says smiling at me from the couch. Daddy hands me to Lizzie. I smile and giggle as Lizzie tickles my feet.
"Haha, stop, hahaha." I giggle. She stops and I smile at her and chew on my bunny. Lizzie hands me to mommy. Mommy sits me on her lap as she sits on the couch.
"Do you want to go get dressed with Aunt Lizzie?" Mommy asks and pulls my nightgown down just a little. I giggle and nod.
"Yes! Auntie Lizzie!" I yell and clap. Everyone laughs and Aunt Lizzie helps me off mommy's lap and holds my hand as we go up stairs to my room. Lizzie picks out a dress for me and helps me put it on. I do a twirl and giggle.
"You look like a real princess!" Lizzie says and I giggle clapping my hands. She grabs my hand and leads me to the bathroom where she puts my hair in a ponytail with a black bow.

"Beautiful!" Lizzie says kissing my cheek. I turn around and giggle and hug her. Lizzie picks me up and takes me downstairs to see mommy and daddy.
When we get downstairs mommy is talking to Uncle Joel and daddy isn't there. He must be using the bathroom.
"Hey where is Bobby?" Aunt Lizzie asks as we reach the bottom of the stairs.
"He had to go get something from the store." Mommy says and walks over to Aunt Lizzie and grabs me. "Look at my little princess." Mommy smiles at me. I giggle and kick my feet. Mommy laughs and puts me down. I run over to Dexter and play with him while Mommy, Uncle Joel, and Auntie Lizzie talk on the couch.
"Dexie!" I yell and pet him. He licks my face and I giggle. "Good puppy!" I yell and hug him around the neck.
I play with Dexter until the phone rings. I hear Mommy answer it and then she starts crying.
"I'll be right over." Mommy cries out. I walk over to her as she stands up.
"Mommy? What's wrong?" I ask.
"Nothing, stay here with Auntie Lizzie and Uncle Joel." Mommy says and kisses the top if my head. Auntie Lizzie picks me up. She carries me upstairs after mommy. Mommy leaves out the door towards the car. I watch her get in and leave.
"Mommy come back?" I ask Auntie Lizzie.
"Yes Mommy will be back." She says and kisses my forehead.
Uncle Joel, Auntie Lizzie and I all have a tea party in my room. When we finish we play princess.
I start getting hungry around dark time. I get scared that mommy and daddy are still not home. Auntie Lizzie is making some dinner while Uncle Joel is playing dolls with me.

The phone starts ringing and Auntie Lizzie goes to answer it.
"Lauren! Is Bobby Okay?" Auntie Lizzie asks.
"Alright, we have to go home so I'll take Marlee with us." Auntie Lizzie says.
"Okay, I wish you both the best. Good bye." Auntie Lizzie hangs up and comes over to me.
"Mommy and daddy won't be home tonight, you will go over to my house." Auntie Lizzie says pointing to herself. I nod and Auntie Lizzie picks me up taking me to my booster seat and letting me eat my dinner.
After dinner Uncle Joel helps me get my socks, shoes and coat as Auntie Lizzie packs my bags. Uncle Joel carries me to his car. He straps me in the backseat. Auntie Lizzie and Uncle Joel get in and we start driving and I start to drift off into a worry free slumber.

The Last Marshal
Weird West Fantasy Noir Once the Republic Marshals brought order to the chaotic lands along the Frontier, facing dangers both human and supernatural with ancient wisdom and a six-gun —but that was a long time ago. Destroyed by conspiracy and betrayal, all that remains of that secretive order is one nameless man on a trek though the West seeking revenge on the woman he blames for the Marshals' fall and his disgrace. When a visitor from our world joins him on his journey, they together must confront the horrors of a strange land, the mysteries of the past and the real meaning of their quest for justice. The world of Tellus is what 19th Century Earth would have looked like if the stories of Poe, Ambrose Bierce, Lovecraft and William Hope Hodgeson were real. History in this world moves slower. The old faiths persist and civilization never conquered the dark corners of the map, at least not without being inextricably changed. Technology and culture takes a little longer to evolve in this land, as people here tend to spend more time pursuing their elaborate revenge plots or trying to avoid being the next sacrifice to the Outer Gods rather than advancing science or statecraft. Imagine Cormac McCarthy by way of Edgar Rice Burroughs, though a little less testosterone-drenched than that description would imply. Three caveats: First, there are deep mysteries here, including how such a world came to be and who controls it. Second, this world is not wholly unconnected from our own. There is a historical point of divergence, but in the distant past. To paraphrase Twain: history in this world is not a repeat of our own, but it does often rhyme. And finally, this is not a setting that lends itself to happy endings.
