《From Rejected to Rogue》Chapter 15

Xena: Warrior Princess clip on the side. You'll get it. ==>
"Okay, Nail one door jamb to the wood frame you built, on the hinge side. This is where you'll hang the door. Wedge thin shims between the frame and the jamb so everything will be level, Just a little tip to help you out?" Eric, a carpenter/builder was trying to explain to me.
"Crazy carpenter dude say what now?" I questioned completely confused.
"Oh, sorry! I forgot that you don't usually build for a living." He blushed.
"Eric? Does it look like I build two story houses for a living?" I asked jokingly raising an eyebrow. He just shook his head laughing leaving me to the mystery of door frame building.
I stood there for five minutes trying to remember what he told me till I saw a muscular dude walk by.
"Here! build a door!" I said passing him the electric drill I was holding. I sighed walking out of the 'non-existent front door' taking off my gloves and wiping my forehead with the back of my hand. We were building for only three hours but managed to get half the house finished. Werewolves work quick, and yes they all were Werewolves.
I was looking around for Spike when I saw him in the lake with Lexi, Hannah and a couple other workers who I'm guessing were cooling off. Lexi, Spike and Hannah were not close to the rope swing unlike the workers who were nearly under it. I decided I wouldn't mind ruining the close I had on which was an old army navy T-shirt and pair of old torn up denim shorts. So I sprinted towards the lake and jumped on the rope swing letting go when I was high over the water.

I came up to see a bunch of muscular guys who were looking at me like I was a meal from McDonalds. I put on my sweetest smile and swam past them, one of them decided it would be awesome to squeeze my as$ but I didn't I thought it would be awesome to throw him out of the lake, besides I'm pretty sure 'he believed he could fly' I just helped him out.
Nobody touched my butt after that, they just finished their brake and decided to get back to work, How convenient?
I swam over to where Spike was gaping at me as he saw one of his men fly out of the water, Lexi was smirking and Hannah was giggling pointing at the guy who was just getting up to go back to work.
"Have you ever seen that show Xena: Warrior Princess?" he asled me curiously and kinda scared.
"Yea, I love that show, why?" I asked back putting my hands on my hips.
"Two things. 1) You could give Xena a run for her money and 2) You remind me of Xena and Lexi reminds me of Gabrielle." He said pointing between us.
"Oh yes, and who are you? Joxer?" Lexi and I started laughing as Spike frowned.
"No! I'm the mighty Hercules!" He said putting his hands on his hips in a heroic sorta way.
"Mhmm" I said shaking my head.
We decided to sit on the beach part of the lake on the blanket. Hannah was in Lexi's hands and was drifting off to sleep.
"So, how long do you think it will take to finish building?" I asked, I was really anxious to get out of the h3ll hole we were staying in.
"Oh, getting tired already? How was building a door going?" He asked amused.

"Fine, thank you." I said trying to act non-chalantly.
"Oh really than why don't we all go see how it looks?" He said winking at Lexi as he started to stand up.
"Alright! I gave up!" I admitted throwing my hands up in surrender.
"I knew you did, Well considering most of the house is done I'd give it..about..two hours? Then we should be finished but you'll have to wait a couple days for the furniture to arrive and for my team and I to get our hands on some water-proof paint." He finished.
"Okay, I'll wait that long" I agreed, reluctantly, but I agreed.
"Cool." he said then turned his attention to Lexi as they chatted up a storm. I laid back on the blanket trying to get some sun when I felt it grow colder and I saw clouds start to form, I got up and groaned as I started feeling rain drops.
Lexi pulled out an umbrella from her beach bag, I think it's the same one from Mary Poppins. EVERYTHING comes out of that damed bag.
"Where the h3ll did you get an umbrella?!" I asked her.
"The store" she said in a 'duh' tone.
"No sh-" I started.
"Language!" she added pointing to Hannah, who was sleeping in her arms. I rolled my eyes.
"Sorry, fine. As I was saying 'No Shiz Sherlock!' " I added smirking, Spike was watching us in amusement as we went back and forth. It started to rain harder and they had to grab a tarp to put over the house.
"Looks like you'll have to wait an extra few more days.." Spike said as he looked at the un-finished house. I threw my hands up in the air,
"Could this get any worse?!?!" I yelled.
We were about to get up and walk over to the house where the workers sent up one of those over head tents thingys to stay dry when we heard a growl from behind us, a bunch of growls actually.
Spike and I looked at each other, then at Lexi and Hannah, back at each other and then to where the noise came from. Our eyes widened. There must of been twenty rogues at the tree line. Spike and I were immediately at our feet leaning forward in a protective manner because of Lexi and Hannah. Lexi knew to stay on the ground and leaned over Hannah. Spike signaled his pack not to move yet so they don't trigger an attack.
"You were saying?" Spike asked glancing sideways at me, he was talking about my whole 'Could this get any worse comment'.
"So," I looked over at him. "Wanna see just how Xena: Warrior Princess I can be?" I asked raising an eyebrow, he smirked.
"Lead the way." He said looking back at Lexi and Hannah worriedly. Just as he said that the wolf in front, The leader i'm guessing, lunged for my throat..
Hey guys! Hope you like it!
P.S. Does anybody know who Xena: Warrior Princess is? If so then you must know who Gabrielle and Joxer are! If not Do you know who Hercules is?!

Mage Among Superheroes
Turlough is a mage. He also happens to be an orc, generally lauded as being less intelligent than humans. He was unfortunately born with the Curse of the Barbarian, meaning that he can’t level up except through combat- which greatly hinders his ability to show he can be a proper mage. In a world with necromancers, dragons, invading armies, and all sorts of other monsters he would still be able to advance quickly, but unfortuantely… that world is not his world. An unprecedented peace reigns across the land, and in the last several decades there’s been little use for people capable of fighting- and thus little reason for people to fight him. So when he sees a portal in his master’s study he takes it, hoping to find a horde of demons or something equally foolish to combat at low level. But instead he ends up in a strange city full of skyscrapers and people running around in colorful outfits. Superheroes- and of course supervillains as well. What dangers and opportunities could await him in such a strange and unfamiliar world? Only time will tell. Inspired by many things in the superhero genre, and Super Minion specifically- though while the setting will share some standard elements, it is an original setting that will hopefully be as engaging as many of the other universes. Schedule: One chapter each Monday/Thursday, approx. 2000 words.

Mechanical Friend The wonders of every therapy machines
Enter the attention of the spiritual world of having a car and what it means when it is seen more than just a car. It is a lot of things. Cars are more than just a mode of transportation to get from point A to point B. Ever since I was a kid and grew up with my family driving in our 84 Buick Regal, I knew I had some sort of special understanding with these vehicles. I know many of you out there have communicated with your vehicles in one fashion or another, but with me personally, Ive always understood and heard the soul of these classic cars. Its made me feel more empathy and understanding of some of the situations they get in, but also understand the joy they feel when they are with whom they call their road partners. When we go to car shows or dealerships, it's mainly for the cars. We don't know what we want or how old we want the car to be. There is a mechanical friend for each of us to learn more about their scientific background. This takes the reader far beyond the facts of what the car breed is. Everything has a spirituality side of it. A Tao; The Tao or Dao is a Chinese word signifying the "way", "path", "route", "road" or sometimes more loosely "doctrine" of cars. If we are looking for a classic car tht we dream of then the message is "Having an old American car is that it doesn't have to be very pretty. It's a satisfactory pleasure of building it and getting together to talk about the American classic, muscle car or not, it's how you connect with others into a community that holds together community. It is much safer to be riding around in a standard classic car from the 60s an 70s because you are aware of your responsibility driving it plus if you're hit, the armor protecting you is the car itself with no huge lethal damage to the car or yourself" Others' tastes are going to be different and unusual.but it is best to find what cars are going to say when we bond with them in every day in all the ways possible. This book teaches how to connect with the vehicle and how to detect gender energies within the machine and waht the machine can do for you.
