《Seventeen One-Shots》REWRITTEN (2)°Joshua°
Advertisement
You were dragged to a party by a friend of yours. She was worried you hadn't been your usual bubbly self since you caught your ex cheating on you. She thought this party would help you take your mind off things.
You walked in and immediately felt uncomfortable. You didn't know many people very well and felt awfully out of place. Your friend looked at you. "You don't have to talk to anybody. You can hang out with me in the kitchen." She smiled. "To talk shit?" You joked. "Yeah! You're feeling better already!" She cheered, dragging you to the kitchen. You sat on a counter top, listening to your best friend talk about all the people y'all couldn't stand. You laughed at all her clever insults and even spouted off a few of your own.
Suddenly the door opened and Joshua, the guy that was universally loved by everyone, walked in, stopping all conversations with his dazzling church boy persona. "Hey guys...I mean gals. What's happening?" He joked, getting a drink from the fridge. "Just talkin' 'bout how ugly you are." Your friend joked. You laughed and he looked at you. "(Y/N)...You're smiling again. I've missed your smile." He said sweetly. His comment made you turn red and look down. "Yah! We all have!" Your friend said pinching your cheeks.
"Have any of you seen Mingyu? He was supposed to buy me dinner and drop it off here." Josh said, opening the kitchen door and peering around the party. "He's probably upstairs, getting it in with some random girl who is drunk off her ass." Your friend said, being brutally honest with Josh. "He's not a hoe like that." "Josh. If (y/n) walked up to you and said she was drunk and horny...would you hesitate to smash that?" "Of course I would... It's nothing against you, (y/n)...I think you're lovely...but I am a child of God and do not practice such sinful acts." He got a little serious, holding his heart then he laughed lightly. "I'm kidding about the melodramatics but I really would turn her down. Drunk and meaningless sex isn't my style." "What if she wasn't drunk and promised to make it worth your while?" Your best friend lost her chill. Your faced got red and so did Josh's. He took a deep breath, looked at your best friend funny and walked out of the kitchen.

Your friend smirked at you. "Aren't you happy I brought you here?" She questioned. "You're so lucky!" A girl whined. "Yeah. Joshua totally likes you! I even heard him say it!" Another girl said. "Want me to hook yall up?" Your friend bumped her eyebrows. You shyly nodded. She smiled and walked out of the kitchen.
She walked in shortly afterwards and rejoined you on the counter top. "He had a mouth full of sushi when I found him. He said he'd talk to you after he finished eating with Mingyu."
You waited for Joshua to talk to you all night but he never did. After about an hour of waiting, you decided to leave. You went around the party telling all your friends goodbye. You didn't find Joshua though. You became a little upset as you walked out of the house where the party was held.
You began walking and didn't even make it around the block when you heard an angel call your name. You turned around to see Joshua running after you. "Let me walk you home." He huffed. "O-okay." You smiled. You looked at him and he looked really sick. "Are you alright?" You asked him. "I was in the bathroom most of the party...Gas station sushi isn't a good idea." He said holding his stomach. "I'm sorry...If you'd like I can get you some sprite and crackers when we get to my house." You smiled lightly. "That would be wonderful." He smiled sweetly at you.
You invited him into your house and guided him to the kitchen. "Here you go. Just what the doctor ordered." You joked handing him a can of sprite and a packet of crackers. "I shall enjoy this. My compliments to the chef." He laughed.

The room fell silent. "What'd you think of BTS's comeback?" he asked. "It was lit." You smiled. Both of you laughed. "We need to hang out more. I miss seeing your smile." He said, turning the charm on. "Yeah. We should." You smiled shyly,turning red. "You wanna go out sometime?" He asked abruptly. Your eyes grew wide and your breathing shallowed. You moved your lips but no words left. You began nodding like a moron. "That's whats up." He smiled,nodding his head.
So I rewrote a little bit of this because I didn't feel like I explained Josh getting sick well enough...it was almost kind of a random fact before I edited the chapter.

Among the vast expanse of the realm known as the Outer Fantasy exists a group of sorcerers by the name of Changelings. They steal the memories and the very essence of normal people in order to perform a strange ritual in which they extend their lives by hundreds or even thousands of years and change their bodies to the extreme. In this devilish process most of the people used die. But a few survive. These unlucky men and women are just a hollow shells of their former selves. They are people with shattered minds and stolen memories. The brands of the ones that brought them to this miserable state are engraved in their skin and both their bodies and minds are damaged by the sorcerers. They’re pitied by some, hated by many and ignored by most. And worst of all – they’re doomed to live their remaining years in this crippled state, isolated by the rest of the world and without a way to heal their injuries, both mental and physical. But deep inside of them lies a spark of the power that the mages used to shatter their minds… The name of these miserable beings is the Undone Ones and this is the story of one of them. His name is Ehrir and in the lowest point of his seemingly unending life as an Undone One he finds the power that can change his life for the better… or worse.

My Newest, and at the same time, Oldest novel. This is a Rewrite of my very first novel that I begun when I was just starting out. It follows the story of Mark Floyd, a broken man who once tried to do what he thought was right... only to be stabbed in the back and thrown away.Now, pulled into a conflict that spans time and space, Mark has a choice to make; Stand up once more, even if it means facing an unknowable future, or let the Embers of his heart die and sink back into darkness. ----------------------------------- “For gold is tried in the fire, and acceptable men in the furnace of adversity”. Once part of a Special Ops team in the US Army, Mark Floyd thought he had seen the worst that Humanity had to offer. That was until his final mission, one that would leave him a broken and shattered man, betrayed by the Country he served, and abandoned by society as a whole. His dreams filled with nightmares of the ones he failed to protect, mind and memories clouded by booze and more, Mark finds himself stumbling through life without purpose or desire. Life isn't done with Mark yet, however. For as long as even a single ember remains in a persons heart, here is still yet hope for the flames of Passion and Hope to be Rekindled. When the dying embers of Mark's heart catches the eyes of a Being far beyond his understanding, Mark finds himself thrown into a situation not even his years of training could prepare him for. Will this new chance be Mark's hope at both Redemption and Recompense? Or will it simply be the final nail in the coffin for a man already dead to the World? [This is a rework of my very first story. The general story will remain the same, however a few details have been tweaked, the chapters have be Edited better and some chapters have been broken down into smaller chunks for better flow and consistency. The biggest change will be to the System itself; It will be a lot less "Game-like", meaning no stats, levels or similar aspect, though skills will still be present in the form of "Programs". Instead, It'll focus more on the Sigil's nature as super-computers and how they change the world around them. This should make for a much more "natural" and less info-dumpy system.
