Mental Link Part 6

Kia coughs. Twice. Harder. Jakeob puts her back, and Yppah instinctively gets closer to her by pushing Jakeob to the side.
She sits up and looks straight at Jakeob and not Yppah. "Jake? Why would you..."
"Shhhhh. Cuz." Yppah turned her head to look at him. "Jakey boy is on a bit of an... emotional roller coaster right now. Look at me."
"Jakeob," she said hoarsely. "Please..."
Yppah growled a little bit. "Why the hell is it all about him?"
Kia went red and looked down sheepishly. "Yppah, please... I just want to see Jakeob..."
Yppah sat next to her. "Explain."
"Explain what, cuz?" Kia asked.
"Why do you still trust him, even after he hooked you up to a poorly built machine, made you horribly sick through said machine, and almost blew you to bits?" Yppah said, feeling tears start to well up in his eyes.
Jakeob sat on the other side of Kia, looking at his feet. Kia didn't notice this, her eyes still locked on Yppah in rage.
"Why do you still trust me after I attempted to kill your best friend by mistake?" She returned. "After I lost control of my magic and almost killed you? After every shitty thing I've ever told you?" The corner of her mouth twitched and tears started to roll down her cheeks. "Tell me why, Yppah."
"Because I love you," he sputtered. "You're my cousin, I'll always forgive you... because you matter to me."
"Well then." Kia's eyes gleamed and she raised her voice to try and drown out the sob in her voice. "I still trust Jakeob is because I love him. I love him more than I should be allowed to. We're not family and I still love him. I'll always forgive him because he matters to me."
She shook and finally let out her sobs. She cried and cried, and Yppah just sat there in shock.
"Kia..." Jakeob said softly.
She stopped crying and turned around. "H-Hey Jake..."
He looked like he was about to cry too.
"Kia." His voice shook. "I love you, too..."

Lady in the Mirror chapter 2

“Humour.” Ella tilts her head. She found and brought a chair the second time we meet, and I’m using the swivel  chair from Typical Dad Base 7. “Explain.” “It’s a concept.” I lean back and grin. “It’s like… Gods, I can’t explain it. It’s taking something and making it funny. Play on words. Those are called puns.” “Define ‘funny’.” “Humorous.” I lean forward, pushing my elbows on my knees. She gives me an innocent look that looks like 'And?’ “Humourous means ‘with humour.’.” “So its all going full circle?” “You could say that, yeah.” I shrug. She clapped her hands together. “Tell me a joke.” “Ok.” I lean back again. “Past, present and future walk into a bar. It was tense.” She blinks a few times like she did during my first joke. Then her eyes sparkle. She smiles. And laughs. I smile. I’ve always been a joker, but that was one of my lesser jokes. Ella really is special. Then it hits me. Carah. I’m still in a relationship with Carah. My face goes slack. ...

A.N. (Author's Note) n2

Ok. I know my latest one was recent, but hear me out. So first things first- I just got a laptop, so I'll definitely be more active. Personally, I think I write better curled up in bed and on a keyboard than on my desktop or my tablet. Secondly, I'm thinking of starting an RP blog. Not a great idea, but I'm working on it. Maybe it'd be just straight fantasy centred. Ok... story updates! The Mental Link Part 4 is just out ! Really excited. Now to wait 5 months before writing the next part! 😝 Interrogation See first A.N. (scroll down for the link) The First Trio See above The Lady in the Mirror Ok, so part 3 is still... in the works. I've been having big problems lately with author's block, sadly. Don't expect much. SNEAK PEEK- Stories coming out soon? The Guild Series Forget it. Inter-Dimensional Heroes I'm still trying to wrangle the co-creators. Fifteen No, not a story about teen angst. I'll see if I have the courage to post i...

The First Trio- How Marrena joined the Mythicals (Part 2)

After a long two kilometres of walking, Zinah started to complain. "Why can’t I just air- or earth-bend myself there?" "The wind would send the trail flying," Saryn said simply. "And the earth thing would mess it up too." "But how far can this thing walk while shot and after a fight?" Zinah asked again, only to be shushed by Saryn. The trail entered a cave. Firelight came out of it, casting deep, scary shadows out in the snow. "Are you sure we should go in?" Zinah asked, scared. "We’ll be fine." Saryn pulled out an arrow and nocked it into her bow. Zinah gulped but slunk forward with her bodyguard. Saryn fired the arrow. A scream filled the cavern. "That was... not that monstrous," Saryn said, tilting her head. "Maybe..." She was cut off by a tan blur jumping on her and knocking her down. Zinah let out a scream, but Saryn stayed calm, pulling out her sword and slicing her enemy. The thing slowed, ...
