《Sqampy's Adoption》Back at the Home

Izzy's PoV:
So it's finally the day of Stampy and Sqaishey's party and I'm so excited for it. I woke up really early, which is unusual for me, and ran into Squid and Nicole's room to get them up. They told me to go back to bed so instead I went into Tom's room and dragged him up.
"Let me get changed first and then I'll come downstairs! Go get yourself some breakfast!" He said laughing.
"Fine." I said and sprinted out of the room and down the stairs into the kitchen where I got myself a bowl of cereal.
I sat down with my cornflakes and got my phone out to text Flo.
I: So r u ready for the party yet?
F: Urmm... No it's 7am
I: Oh come on I'm already having breakfast.
F: I'm not even out of bed yet! Their party doesn't start till 3
I: Yeah but still, we will pick u up at 2:40 anyway.
F: okay c u there then!
I: C u
*Time Skip*
It was eventually time to go and collect Flo from the care home, so we all jumped in the car and started going to the home. It wasn't very far but it felt like hours as I was so nervous about going back to the home. Although I do go there every weekday after school to make sure Flo got back safely, I never actually went any further in than the edge of the driveway and being in the car with adults it just felt more official.
We drove up the driveway and my nerves started to go off. We all got out of the car and walked up to the door. Squid and Nicole were at the front with Tom behind. I saw Squid knock on the door, I started to hang back not wanting to go in. Tom turned around and saw me backing away. He walked up to and crouched down in front of me.

"Are you scared?" He said to me. I nodded.
"It's gonna be fine, Mitch isn't here anymore, we will probably just have a coffee and then leave." He said standing up and putting his arm around me. We walked back behind Squid, who gave me a worried look but Tom gave him a thumbs up and we carried on.
Adam, who let us in, led us to the kitchen and started making them coffee. Meanwhile I stayed close to Tom who didn't leave my side, I was thankful for that as I hated this place. I was in a family now and I didn't want to have to come back, even if it was just for a visit.
We spent a few minutes in there but then one of the girls, who was the kind of person who thought they were the best, most beautiful, cleverest and funniest person ever, came round the corner and into the room. She stood in the corner smirking at me, I remembered her, she was always with Mitch so I never really spoke to her. I just tried to forget she was there but, all the same, I stayed close to Tom.
"Why don't you go and find Flo, she's in her room. You'll find her." Adam said to me, smiling. Tom looked at me, worried but I just slowly walked out the room. I walked up the stairs and along the corridor, but then I heard a voice behind me.
"Hold up kid!" I turned around to see the girl from the kitchen coming towards me, she must've followed me upstairs.
"What do you want?" I said, trying to sound as tough as possible when really I was terrified. She continued walking towards me until she was definitely in my personal space, I wanted to back away but I had to look strong, I couldn't show her weakness. So I stayed put. When she stopped she put her hands on my shoulders and pushed me into the wall.

"I want you to pay for what you did to my beautiful Mitch!" She whispered in my ear. Before I could speak she put her hand over my mouth and punched the side of my face, right on my temple.
I fell to the floor instantly, I hadn't blacked out but I was on the verge, everything was unclear and I was very dizzy. I could hear footsteps coming quickly and through the floor it was agony. I tried to sit up and put my hands over my ears to stop the sounds but as soon as I did that, I collapsed. I felt someone catch me before I hit the floor. Just before I blacked out I managed to open my eyes enough to see Squid looking down at me. But then, black.
I woke up on a bed with Squid and Nicole in either side of it.
"How do you feel?" Squid asked. I ignored the question and asked one myself instead,
"What happened?"
Squid looked at Nicole and then back to me.
"That girl hit you and Flo heard, she screamed when she saw you. Which is what we heard. Flo attacked the girl so she couldn't hurt you anymore. When we got to you, Adam and Tom broke the girls apart and I managed to catch you before you hit the floor." He explained. I nodded remembering some of it.
"How do you feel then?" Nicole asked.
This time I didn't ignore it,
"I feel fine now, although my head still hurts a bit... What about the party?!" I suddenly remembered.
"We have told Stampy and Sqaishey and they said, if you were feeling up to it, that you could come later." Nicole said.
"Tom and Flo are already there." Squid finished.
"I want to go now." I said. Squid and Nicole didn't look sure but they agreed anyway. I got out of bed and fell into Squid's side, who luckily caught me.
"I'm okay, don't worry." I said, letting go of Squid.
The more I walked, the easier it got, until I reached the stairs. I was about to step down when Squid grabbed me from behind, pulling me back.
"Oh no your not!" He said, picking me up and taking me down the stairs.
Just as we were coming down the stairs, the girl who attacked me before was stood there.
"Can't even walk down the stairs by ourselves?" She sniggered.
"Well at least I have a family who likes me, all of yours have given you back." I stated. Her usual smirk turned into a face of anger.
"What did you say?" She said walking towards us. Squid put me down behind him and stood in between me and her. She charged, trying to get past Squid who grabbed her pulling her away from me. Nicole grabbed my arm pulling me out and back to the car.
We got in and we were shortly followed by Squid.
"Are you okay to go to the party now or not?" He asked turning round to face me.
I nodded, "I'm fine."
He turned back around and drove to Stampy's house.
We soon arrived and walked through the front door. Tom came to greet us and check if I was alright. I looked down the hall and I could see Flo, Stampy and Sqaishey all standing with each other talking and laughing. I smiled and looked at Tom who was looking at them as well. He smiled at me and I knew exactly what he was thinking.

Saint's Supporter
Dumped into a world by myself, set up with a class that requires others to excel with just over a week to prepare for a fight with a literal god. This is just another betrayal to add to the list. I won't stop until I find the person who put me in this situation, along with my friend who I dragged into this mess. Transferring to another world and gaining special powers is a dream for some, but if they were dropped into my shoes... they'd probably give up. But I won't. This story has the following elements: Male MC Light RPG mechanics (no in-story stat tables) Non-standard class for the MC Moderate violence A mix of solo fights and group battles with a balance of tactics, skill and ability usage If you're looking for the below, you may be disappointed: Instantly overpowered MC (no prior skills in combat, every bit of growth is earned) Female MC (duh) Explicit sex (may be referenced, but no NSFW chapters) Health bars (damage taken and given reflects reality) Harem Gore and ultra-violence **This story is a First Draft, changes may take place during the process. Three chapters per week at minimum.** **So, this is set up as a GameLit transported to a new world story initially, but it focuses on how such a system would work in real life. There are levels, abilities and mana pools, but damage and health are realistic and combat is fast and frantic. I think that is an interesting mix. If you have any questions, just ask in the comments. I'm always happy to discuss anything in relation to the story.**

Having reached the end of a long journey, their last chance at survival rests in a dangerous Summoning that could leave them crippled. But they have no other option left to them. Cursed by a mysterious group of beings for reasons unknown and currently hunted by enemies far outmatching them in strength, they gamble everything on the hope that someone answers their call. *** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author: Things like NTR, rape and the like are things i hate so if people are worried about that stuff i want to let you know that those things will not be happening. EDIT(June 18): So I should warn you guys, I have been told that the chapters have too many info dumps. This is a shortcoming that i am now aware of thanks to comments and reviews mentioning that fact. Since i know many readers enjoy the character interactions much more, that is what im planning to increase with my future chapters. I would say only my more recent chapters have decent amounts of character interactions and this is what i will take a larger focus on from now on. Although there will still be information presented, I intend to not make them so long. If you can get past the info dumps, you may like the story. Who knows. EDIT(August 19): The summary above is new. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I dont usually do this... but if you like TLK, this story, then feel free to check out my other work: http://royalroadl.com/fiction/5893

The Girl with Scales and a Sword
This is the story of a girl who ends up with scales and a sword. Yup. There you have it folks. Slice of Life is the key intended genre. This is literally going to be a running commentary of a girls life, especially as it relates to adventure and action This is going to be a continuous work, as I intend it to be a side project while I work on other books more decidedly, and I intend to rework chapters often, because I want this both to be a break from other titles, and a learning experience. I'm going to be trying to get a lot of people to comment on chapters so I can grow as a writer. So if you want to read, please do! and comment if you feel generous. Just keep in mind, releases will likely be veeeeery far apart. (Note: I try to put out a chapter a month, though that doesn't always happen depending on school, work, and generally how well I'm doing, energy-wise)
