XD
I want a puppy Flynx
Cleo coughed, looking at her older brother through tired and sleepy green eyes, disoriented after the second seizure that day. She mumbled something under her breath, the words slurred and inaudible, she felt clumsy and confused, her vocabulary nonexistent.
"Are you okay?" Flynx asked his younger sister, sitting next to the six-year-old and watching her worriedly.
"Yeano." Cleo mumbled, the inaudible words confusing to even herself.
"What did you want for your birthday, Cleo?" Flynx asked, attempting to distract her.
"Iwanapuppy," Cleo slurred, but her brother understood, his multicolored eyes softening at the hopeful tone in her voice, "I wanapuppyhelpme." She slurred, green eyes drooping slightly.
"You want a puppy?" Flynx asked her, the nine-year-old boy trying to keep his sister calm while Lixa went to find their parents. "You want a puppy to help you? What would he help you with?"
"Seizureanblindness." Cleo slurred, looking at her brother hopefully, "willyougemeapuppy?" she asked before seizing up again, making a gurgling noise. Flynx did everything he could to help his younger sister, not sure what to do while she had another seizure in the grass of the park after falling out of a tree.
"I'll get you a puppy, Cleo," He promised both of them as he heard Lixa yelling that she had found their mom and was coming with her to help Cleo.
:) :) :) :)
Cynthia paced the small hospital room, worried about her youngest daughter, not sure what Cleo had done to trigger that many seizures one after another, Miles and Lixa were sitting together on the floor, Miles sitting in his older sister's lap, now asleep after crying himself to sleep, Lixa was reading a book, frequently glancing over at her siblings. It was silent for a while, the only sounds were the hospital machines and Cynthia's pacing.
Eventually Flynx broke it, "She wants a puppy." The nine year old said quietly from his position sitting quietly in a visitors chair and bouncing his leg, "Cleo told me she wants a puppy for her birthday and I told her I would get one for her." He looked up at his parents, "She wants a puppy to help her with the seizures, can we get one mom?"
Cynthia and Leon exchanged looks before Cynthia looked back at her oldest son, "Sure, Flynx, we can get a puppy for her when she wakes up."
"I want to choose it," He said quietly, "I want to pick the puppy for her."
"Alright, we'll go look for one later today okay?"
"Okay."
:) :) :) :)
Flynx walked with his mother through the dog shelter, looking for the perfect dog for his younger sister. He had seen many dogs so far, but nothing that his sister would like as a companion. "Mom, I'm not seeing any puppies," He said quietly, his unconscious sister still on his mind.
"I know, flynx, I know," Cynthia told him, "Keep looking okay?"
"Okay." Flynx kept looking, and few minutes later he found the dog he was looking for. A muddy looking puppy was sitting next to the cage door, looking at them through round chocolate brown eyes, it seemed to be a funny breed, with the body shape and thick fur of a husky, but the fur was longer and golden, and it was looking at him like it knew he would take it home with him. "That one." Flynx said, pointing to the muddy pup who was about the size of a miniture poodle, "Cleo would like that one, he's not barking, and he's looking at me like he has to take him home."
Cynthia looked at the puppy as well and noticed was he was saying as well, "Okay Flynx, we'll take him with us," She scanned over the information pinned to the cage, the puppy was a husky lab mix named Rix was was barely six months old.
:) :) :) :) :)
Cleo opened her eyes a day later, confused and completely exhausted, but she saw the husky lab laying at her mother's feet with Miles curled up against it's fur and sleeping. "Who's that?" She asked a bit groggily, looking at the dog who was looking at her through chocolate brown eyes.
"This is Rix," Flynx smiled at his sister, watching the dog get up without waking up Miles and jumping up onto the girl's bed, curling up next to her and putting his head on her stomach. "He's your new puppy, Cleo, happy later birthday!"
Cleo's green eyes widened and she looked at the dog who's tail as gently thumping against the mattress. "Really?" She asked in disbelief, "He's mine?"
"Yup,"
"Thank you!" Cleo grinned at her brother before hugging the dog and laughing as he licked her face over and over.
:) :) :) :) :)
Miles whistled loudly, hoping that it was loud enough for Rix to hear, "Rix!" He shouted. His sister needed her dog's help, and she couldn't get him on her own. Rix came bounding over to the eight year old, stopping next to him and looking around for his handler.
"Rix," Miles crouched down next to the dog, rubbing the dog's ears, "Find her, go." Rix took off, looking for Cleo with Miles running behind him. Rix nosed his way through the school doors and went to search, sniffing each classroom for his handler. He slipped into a classroom and gently took the hood of her hoodie in his teeth, pulling her away from the desks that would hurt his seizuring handler, nudging away other objects and nuzzling her face, rubbing his muzzle along one side of her face and gently making sure that her head was turned in one direction, keeping her from choking. When she had stilled he curled his body around her head and shoulders, licking her face and making a rumbling crooning noise, comforting Cleo and trying to wake her up.
:) :) :) :)
"Rix, this is Leroy," Cleo introduced her dog to her friend, "He's my friend." Rix sniffed Leroy and balanced up on his back legs, licking his face a times before dropping down as a puppy that looked just like him darted into the room, crashing into the door in the process. "And that's Rix's son, Rix junior." Cleo said with a laugh as the puppy crashed into her ankles before sitting down on her feet like his father used to when he was a little younger. "Rix is six years old, his son is six and a half months old." She said, leaning down to pet both other them, rubbing their ears in the same place.
"Are they your service dogs?" Leroy asked, leaning down and rubbing their heads as well, the two twelve-year-olds may have only met a few weeks ago but they acted like they had known each other for years. "Or are they your companions?"
"A bit of both," Cleo smiled, "technically they're registered service dogs trained for my issues specifically, but they're also my companions."
Info on Upcoming Chapters (For those who are curious)
The Things Sisters Do For Eachother
Have outline completed, four scenes written
Sneak Peek: "You have got to be kidding me." Cynthia groaned, letting her head drop down on top of her textbook, her phone clattering out of her other hand to be resting face down on the study table.
Leon looked up from his math work to look at his friend, "What's wrong?"
"Haliah and Paige have decided that they need help hiding from Brendan." Cynthia sighed, lifting her head to push her phone over to Leon and prop her head up on her arm.
Leon turned the phone over and briefly scanned through his friend's recent conversation with her sisters via text. "Oh come on!" He complained a few moments later, turning the device off and looking at her disappointedly, "you were supposed to be here with me for another few hours!"
Cynthia sighed as she closed her textbook and put together the rest of her study materials. "I know, and I was looking forward to staying over here for a few hours."
Leon pouted as he watched her stuff her books into her bag, "darn, I really wanted to watch that movie with you."
"Me too," Cynthia replied, getting to her feet and slinging her backpack over her shoulder before walking around the table and giving him a short chaste kiss.
Leon mumbled under his breath as she moved away and he got to his feet, "Come on, I'll walk you to the school," he said with a small smile, offering his arm to his friend. The whole friends with benifits thing had been easier as the days rolled by, and with a year of it tucked under their belts, it was almost natural at this point.
The Great Battle Humanized
Beginning, end, and part of the middle is written, along with the prophecy
Sneak Peek: "Always." She (Cynthia) decided, believing Leon's words and letting out a small laugh as his lopsided grin before it was cut off by Leon sealing the deal. As if on cue the lake behind them turned pink as the sun started to set, shortening their preparation time as it painted the sky a beautiful shades of pink, orange, red, and yellow; framing the two fighters in the pink light being reflected off of the lake's crystal clear water. What could've been the perfect moment was broken a moment later when Leon lost his balance and the two teenagers fell into the lake with a splash that startled them both apart.
:) :) :)
"Use your toes to balance Rose, You need to be able to fight no matter where you are. These warriors want to kill you!" Ivory advised, watching the ginger haired girl struggle to do as she asked.
"How do we kill them?" Clark asked, turning his attention on the blonde giving out advice. "They're practically untouchable!"
"They are normal people with skills in fighting, kill them like you would a normal lunatic. But remember, outside of this battle there are no killing." Ivory stated calmly, pushing away the huanting memories of Alex's screams when she killed him to gain better status in the dark forest. During her efforts of pushing it away she hadn't noticed Brad giving out more duties until he called her name. With a sense of foreboding she did as she was told, 'They're going to ask me to tell them who's been training in the dark forest aren't they? Well too bad, I'm not telling you.' She thought snipily.
"Which Thunder people are training with you in the Dark Forest?"

What Am I Suppose To Do?! He Likes Me!
Written up to where Paige and Trystan go on a date
Sneak Peek: Trystan leaned over the table and put his hand over top of Paige's, his green eyes warm and supportive. "I don't mind waiting for a while," he said softly, "I don't want to push you into anything that you aren't ready for Paige." He smiled at her reassuringly, "I know how nervous you are about this and honestly I don't mind waiting in the friend zone until I can show you that I'm not like Brendan and I only like you, your sister is your sister to me, nothing more."
Paige smiled a slightly watery smile at him, 'he's so different, but in a good way.' She thought before she responded with a good response, "maybe if we just take it slow? One step at a time?"
Trystan smiled, dark brown hair drifting in front of his face near his eyebrows, "Whatever you want Paige, I'm good with any way you want to do it."
Paige's heart melted and she smiled wider, "Thank you Trystan."
The Contest Results, Leon Wins!
Everything but the final scene is written
Sneak Peek: "Hi," Bree mumbled sleepily when Jay entered the room, still groggy from the anesthesia used on her for the C-section, looking at him tiredly.
"Hey," Jay replied, using one hand to guide him toward where she was, their newborn daughter nestled in his other arm, the baby girl's weight was strange and it made him that he was going to drop her. "How're you feeling?" He asked, his voice still as curt and grumpy as usual.
"Like I got hit by a truck," Bree replied with amusement before struggling into a sitting up position, her amber eyes lighting up at the sight of their dozing daughter. "Ooh! Let me see her!"
"Calm down, you're supposed to be resting." Jay grunted, gently pushing her back down into the half sitting up position she had been in before. "You don't want to hurt yourself."
"Jay, let me see her!" Bree whined, not putting up a fight when he pushed her down, "please!"
"Okay," Jay carefully found Bree's arms and carefully placed their daughter in her arms, silently disappointed that he couldn't see either of them.
Bree seemed to sense hs dreariness and she spoke, describing the baby girl to her blind father. "She has a little but of fuzzy dark brown hair, a small nose, chubby hands, and freckles along her cheeks." Bree described her before letting out a small gasp when the baby opened her eyes and looked at her mother. Bree's amber eyes softened with love as she held the baby's gaze, "her eyes are an icy blue, lighter than yours."
"Caylee Caprice Bramble." Jay decided and Bree smiled, pulling him down to be sitting next to her.
THEY LEFT US IN THE FOREST! AU
kidnapping scenes, when they wake up, Cynthia cursing their bad luck, Leon and Cynthia's conversation, and Isa's argument with Cynthia that ends in a fight, are all written.
Sneak Peek: Cynthia shrugged casually, blue eyes gleaming with mischeif and cheekiness, "I don't think he'll care when he breathes my name in my ear in the middle of the night."
Isa's blue eyes flash, "Cynthia!" She growled, pushing up her sleeves, a signal for a fight.
Cynthia reacted to her agression, smirking slightly and hunkering down into a fighting stance, "Isa," she mock growled, her sapphire blue eyes gleamed in the afternoon sunlight. This fight had been just waiting to happen since this morning when Cynthia and Leon had been splashing eachother in the river when they were supposed to be getting water for Holly to use.
Boring Office Work, Welcome To The City Leon
(This has been the hardest one to write for sure! XD) Leon moving to new york with his sister, his and Cynthia's first confrontation, him finding out that Cynthia is his sister's bestfriend since they were kids, him meeting Flynx, his and Cynthia's first kiss where Cynthia runs off afterward, the crash, he offends Cynthia when he finds out that Flynx is her son(not his btw), she tells him the story, Holly is shocked when he tells her Cynthia is trusting him with Flynx, the birthday party, Cynthia introduces him to the chemical lab, the walk back to Cynthia's flat (apartment), Flynx calls Leon daddy, and the werehouse incident are all written, just missing connector scenes and a few more deer in the headlights scenes with Cynthia (maybe)
Sneak Peek: "Maybe I'll show it to you one day, then you'll see why it cost so much." She said casually her voice holding a small playful tone, writing a few things down as she scanned through her file, looking at Leon out of the corner of her eye while she wrestled with her learned defensive attitude towards men, after a moment she succeeded and shoved it away, having resolved to deal with it later.
Holly was inwardly dumbfounded, her friend was casually talking to a guy? Maybe even flirting with him? Both were something that Holly hadn't seen more than a handful of times, and not in at least five years.
Leon on the other hand was also stunned and didn't know what to do, he wasn't sure if she was flirting with him or was just stating a fact so he decided to play it a little risky. "Sounds fun," he said with a small smile, "where did you learn the chemistry? I'd love to learn it too."
Holly's eyebrows actually raised slightly when her coworker didn't brush off the comment, instead, the blue-eyed woman actually smiled, her blue eyes lighting up with amusement.
"Maybe someday," Cynthia replied vaguely, looking at Leon, "who knows," she pretended to scrutinize him with raised eyebrows, "chemistry might be a hidden skill of yours."
It fell silent after Cynthia's comment, Leon feeling a little warm a fuzzy, but he didn't want to push her any farther, from what he had seen over the past month, one wrong word and she would probably brush him off. Cynthia was quite confused on what had just happened and was seriously conflicted about it, unsure what was happening to her and dreading any more conversation, While Holly was silently wondering how bold and straightforward her brother was going to be.
