《Finding them》Chapter 22
Advertisement
The next day the twins were still cautious around everyone and the house but were doing ok. They had sort out Addy and there older brothers and stayed close to Big Kota, Addy and Hunty who they seemed to be closer with. Jamie and Eddie didn't mind as those three had spent more time with the twins then them but now the weekend was here it was suppose to be time for the twins to bond with Eddie and Jamie as well as there grandparents and uncle who would be coming over for lunch. Daniel uninvited his parents though and his dad understood but his mother was fuming.
The twins didn't let go of each other at all after falling asleep yesterday. They also slept on top of Daniel and flinched at any loud noises. They barely ate any food in the afternoon and Darcy has several accidents in her pants which they all assumed were caused by the incident that had taken place.
Daniel had spoken to his brother the night before and explained what had happened with there mother. To say Bill was annoyed with his mother was an understatement. He was thrilled though he was still going to meet his niece and nephew for lunch and made sure it was still ok after what had happened with his mother. Bill was upset he wasn't going to get to see his father though but he would organised to see them at a later date. Bill had never been close to the woman at all, he found he overbearing and domineering, if she was a male she would be classed as abusive.
Jamie had made bacon and scrambled eggs for breakfast for everyone as he knew that the twins liked bacon, especially Dakota who had struggled the most because he had always been strong for his sister. Eddie has brought the twins downstairs which had become his every day routine and Daniel had jumped in the shower quickly as he hadn't been able to shower last night with the twins falling asleep on him.
"Morning munchkins" Jamie chirped out earning a groan from Eddie, this was an every day occurrence now but what caught everyone's attention was Dakota groaning just like Eddie had done every morning. "Did he just groan at me?" Jamie asked shocked. Eddie couldn't help but laugh nodding his head yes to his older brother. "High five dude that was awesome" Eddie say to Dakota holding up his hand waiting for Dakota to high five him. Dakota flinched back thinking Eddie was going to hit him. "Shit sorry bud, you tap my hand and it's called a high five" Eddie tried to explain. He didn't even think about what he was doing until he saw how it had affected Dakota.

Jamie and Eddie demonstrated how to do a high five for the twins and the twins copied high fiving each other other while Darcy called out "shit". She had heard her older brother say it so thought that was what you said when you high fived someone. "What did you say?" Jamie asked his baby sister not believing what had just come out of her mouth. Darcy looked at Jamie like he was crazy, not knowing what he meant. "When you high fived Dakota what did you say?" Jamie asked again. Darcy kept her mouth closed she didn't know what Jamie was talking about. All she did was high five like they had shown her how to do. Jamie let it go thinking he must of heard wrong.
Hunter and Mitchell headed into the kitchen. "Hey Darcy and Dakota show Mitty and Hunty what I taught you" Eddie told the twins proud he had taught them something. Darcy and Dakota again high fived with Darcy calling out "shit". Jamie was stunned he had heard her right the first time. Hunter tried not to laugh while Mitchell glared at Eddie. "You taught her to swear? Dad is going to kill you" Mitchell fumed. "No no no. I taught them to high five I don't know why she is saying Shit" Eddie raced out. "You better unteach her before dad hears" Jamie added.
Daniel stepped into the kitchen seeing all his children. He smiled and asked "unteach Darcy what?" Daniel asked all his children. "Wook Addy" Darcy called happy with herself. Her and Dakota again high fived with now both twins saying "shit" as there hands touched. Dakota and Darcy were smiling while Hunter was again trying not to laugh. Daniel was shocked, "did they just say what I think they said?" He asked. "Dad wait I can explain" Eddie rushed out. "You taught your little brother and sister how to swear?" Daniel asked Eddie. "No no I taught them how to high five" Eddie tried to explain. Hunter couldn't help but start laughing. "Oh my god that's the cutest swear word I have ever heard" he laughed out. "I need to get this on camera" Hunter laughed reaching for his phone. Daniel glared at Hunter who sobered up quickly smart. "I didn't teach them Eddie did" Hunter stated before grabbing his breakfast and heading to the table to eat.

Daniel had to explained to the twins that shit wasn't a nice word ending up with Darcy crying because she thought she was bad. Eddie felt horrible but he hadn't thought when he swore in front of them. Darcy had in fact been copying more words that each of them were saying and was talking more and more. Daniel had told his older sons that swearing needed to stop in the house so the twins didn't repeat it but Eddie let one slip and now his sister was upset.
When everyone was calmed down and breakfast was finished Eddie and Jamie took Darcy and Dakota outside with the ball. They wanted to teach them how to throw and catch a ball. As they got to the grass Eddie put down a blue ball while Jamie put the red ball down. Immediately Darcy ran to the red ball, she liked anything red. She picked up the ball and cuddle it to her chest. Eddie and Dakota started to play around with the ball. Eddie was teaching Dakota to kick the ball and then they would both chase the ball around the yard. Dakota was laughing with Eddie.
Jamie coaxed Darcy eventually to put the ball on the ground, and then he kicked the ball softly across the grass. Darcy screamed and began to cry. Daniel heard and came running along with Hunter and Mitchell while Eddie looked on trying to work out what happened. Dakota ran to his sister while Jamie stood there stunned. "What happened?" Daniel rushed over to his daughter checking if she was hurt but not seeing anything. Dakota was glaring at Jamie while holding his sister to his chest. "I kicked the ball" Jamie stuttered out. "And?" Daniel asked waiting for the rest of the story. Jamie shook his head not knowing what else happened.
Darcy and Dakota were talking gibberish through her sobs while Dakota comforted his sister. Mitchell walked over to the red ball picking it up and handing it back to Darcy who pulled the ball into her chest cuddling it like it was a baby. She immediately stopped crying when she had the ball in her arms. "Umm what the ...?" Hunter asked. "Mine red" Darcy said while glaring at Jamie. "I'm sorry?" Jamie said not know what was happening. "No kick red" Dakota told Jamie who nodded his head. Everyone broke into laughs at the fact Darcy had reacted that way because of Jamie kicking a ball. "Oh god, your face was so good. You looked mortified" Mitchell laughed at Jamie who was still being glared at by Darcy.
Dakota had gone back to play ball with Eddie. "Yeh it was priceless, Darcy shouldn't Jamie say sorry to red?" Hunter asked his sister who nodded her head holding the red ball out to Jamie. "Umm sorry?" Jamie said causing Daniel, Mitchell and Hunter to laugh at him again. Darcy walked over to Jamie and pulled on his leg so he knelt down and she gave Jamie a kiss on the cheek causing Jamie to break out in a huge smile while the others looked shocked. The twins rarely showed affection to anyone but each other. Mitchell, Hunter and even Daniel were stunned and a little jealous to be honest.

Viceroy's Pride
This story could be about the Tellask Empire, ruler of a thousand suns and faced with imminent peril at the hands of the Orakh hordes. It could be about Paltai Amberell, the scion of a noble elven House, fallen upon hard times and seeking to find the key that will restore his family's name and save the Empire itself. It could be the story of his voidship, The Viceroy's Pride, powered by magic and crewed by a team of crack marines as they search for adventure and the solution to the Empire's myriad problems. Instead, this is the story of Daniel Thrush, human electrical engineer, befuddled researcher and survivor of the debacle that was first contact with a spacefaring civilization. Due to a combination of luck, magic, hard work, and more luck he is thrust into the center of events as Earth is shoved onto a much larger stage rife with semi-immortal elves and magical kingdoms that predate the Earthly invention of agriculture. Earth is outnumbered, and we have precisely one wizard. Dan. He's not very good at it, but he's going to have to learn in a hurry or watch everything he knows get torn apart by massive spacefaring empires straight from the pages of a fantasy novel. ---------- Some readers have noted that the MC tends to be weak willed and pushed around a bit. A significant portion of the story is his character growth into not being a pushover (i.e. him being passive is in the early chapters on purpose). I'm just including this caveat/warning to make sure that readers aren't surprised/upset and that they stick with it until he learns to stand up for himself. His arc begins to crystallize around chapters 25-27. If that's too long to wait, I get it, I'm just trying to do my due diligence and warn you that the character development is a bit of a slow burn. This is NOT a harem novel. Nothing against them, just not what it is. --------- Updates Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday Feel free to bother me on our discord- Discord!

Warden of Success - A LitRPG
In the future of Earth humans are no longer the dominant species. Monsters, vampires, elves and all manners of otherworldly threats now threaten the planet and its people. And for one such as Camille, there was nothing she could do. A failed martial artist, Camille swallowed her pride and dreams, all the while sinking into the world of video games. Until she died. Reawakening with newfound power in her very own bed, there's no doubting that she's an oddity. And as the only individual in the world with the body of a video game character, she's ecstatic. No longer will she just be content with playing games in her dark room, taking over fantasy worlds as a great heroine. Rather, she'll do something better. And that'll be to take over the real one instead. Whether it be mages, demons or other supernatural entities that stand in her way, it doesn't matter. Camille may be a level one at first, but dammit if she wasn't going to try to reach one hundred. This is not a crunchy LitRPG and gradually becomes more of a character driven story that just happens to have a main character with LitRPG abilities. There will be a variety of powers/abilities that are explored later in the setting involving magic systems and other technological advancements. The first 10 chapters were written with satirical undertones, but begin to develop more into its own entity after that.
