New Job & Orientations Are Boring

 Ok, orientation was incredibly boring but than again if you worked in retail before you know that all of the training videos and programs are the same. Although the coordnator gave me the wrong times for the orientation it was suppose to be 4pm-7pm but it ran until 8pm, don't get me wrong it was a paid orientation and my first official day of work but I missed my ride and then had to wait around till 10pm to catch another. A whole two hours stuck doing nothing but wandering through the store getting myself acquainted with it. And then they didn't even give us our training schedules, they are suppose to call us with them because the woman who did them took them home with her and won't be back till Saturday.

New Job!

Zero&Yuki from Vampire Knight
I got two jobs offers today but one is two far to commute to so I will have to take the other one with a lesser pay rate but it doesn't matter, I needed this especially with all of the new books coming out that I want to get. I start tomorrow with paid-orientations and start real work by next week. I have to go out and buy some white button down shirts now for work but other than that I won't really have a uniform. 

Elmo's been bad!! Very bad!!

having an epiphany here
 Ok my neighbor's kids are insane and brutal.

 I think that they are twins or only a year or two apart can't really tell but anyway what they did yesterday afternoon was just weird. When I got home last night from going on with my friend Ang, I decided to come through our back door instead of the front because I remembered that my mom had just finished vaccuming the day before and  I didn't want to drag dirt in (rambling, sorry!) but anyway as I walked along the side of the house I looked over into the neighbor's yard and so the two kids taking down their volleyball net but leaving the stands up and then they proceed to tie their talking Elmo to the post with their jump ropes. So it looked like he was being cruzified or hung, they then started dancing around it and screaming that they killed Elmo. Until one of them spotted me and must of see my confused/freaked out expression and put on this serious face (like Lilo, from the Lilo&Sticih Movie) and said that Elmo had been bad and needed to be punished. I stared had him for about minute and then busted out laughing before heading inside and calling my friends. 

New Job! Maybe

 Interviews went pretty good yesterday, the first one was suppose to be only 15 mins but ended up being over half-hour because I got all 3 basic interviews out of the way and was told I would recieve an offer right after my background check cleared. So fingers crossed I will begin basic training by next week. 

Interviews

Hi, I am looking for a bit of help.

Hi


I am looking for a beta-reader to help me to edit my story, the Adventures of Valeria Richards, Disciple of Wiccan. I would really appericate the help and in return I would write you into the storyline as one of  Val's friends and who will make appearances every now and then. Just leave a response here and I will contact you with my e-mail.

here's the background on the story;

 Background: Valeria Richards is 15 going on 16 and is the bane of 25 yr. old Wiccan’s existent, as the result of the mutant Blindfold foreseeing the need of Val having a powerful/good guy/non-crazy teacher or she was going to enviably be heading for the dark side because of the awesome amount of power she unknowingly wields. Along with the fact that Billy needs as Doctor Strange repeatedly told him a magical assistance to help him with all of his magical endeavors and to train the next generation. Just think of her as just his disciple in all his endeavors, so in other words they are stuck together for better or worse.
 
Valeria just wants to be a regular teenager and enjoy her youth and party and stress about school with her friends, she doesn’t want to go into the family business of being a superhero like her parents and older brother. Val’s demands of normalcy lead Billy and her to butt heads constantly, she feels he needs to chill out enjoy the reminder of his youth and be lay back like his twin, while Billy feels she needs to accept some responsibility and learn patience and control before she takes out Manhattan or all of New York.

thank you

Rating: PG, it will go up later
Summary: Advice, Little Sisters cause too much drama




Adventures of Valeria Richards, Disciple of Wiccan


Disclaimer: I don’t own any of the characters, Marvel does, but if I did then Valeria, Franklin and Luna would be actually aging and be teenagers already and having their own adventures/drama.

The Young Avengers are going to be playing the most significant roles here along with the Runaways and the New X-Men/Young X-Men as supporting cast. Valeria Richards is the protagonist of sorts as (well her name is in the title) she is the next generation of magic after Wiccan, Nico, and Pixie, but she wouldn’t be every chapter/drabble.

Background: Valeria Richards is 15 going on 16 and is the bane of 25 yr. old Wiccan’s existent, as the result of the mutant Blindfold foreseeing the need of Val having a powerful/good guy/non-crazy teacher or she was going to enviably be heading for the dark side because of the awesome amount of power she unknowingly wields. Along with the fact that Billy needs as Doctor Strange repeatedly told him a magical assistance to help him with all of his magical endeavors and to train the next generation. Just think of her as just his disciple in all his endeavors, so in other words they are stuck together for better or worse.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Well you could always see if Doctor Strange is available but I doubt that Wong and he would be as fun as Billy.” Franklin stated not even looking up at her as he continued to realign the circuit breakers on his new invention the…the name escapes Val at the moment, she wasn’t really listening to him this morning at breakfast, as she was trying to finish up her English paper last minute and H.E.R.B.I.E was scolding her for putting it off until the last minute…stupid nanny bots, she thought frowning at the memory.

“Billy is not fun and he is a horrible teacher, he’s boring and so over conscious about researching before we even attempt anything. He is just as bad as H.E.R.B.I.E except there is no off switch on him. Why can’t I learn from Pixie or Nico, they would be more fun and they wouldn’t get on my case about whether or not I have done my reading or research before I practiced. I mean isn’t experience the best teacher after all.” She leaned back with her arms crossed and superior satisfied grin on her face.

Franklin look up from the switch board and blink up at her from behind his ridiculous goggles. Val raised an eyebrow at him. He sighed and put his tools down and removed the goggles, he ran a hand through his hair and blew out a breath of air rolling his eyes up to the ceiling like to ask the question, “Why god did I want a little sister again and why did I bend reality to bring her into existence again when instead I should have asked for a dog or something?” Valeria frowned at him when his gaze returned to her.

“Sure Val, you just tell yourself that and when you end up stuck in some magical dimension unable to get back because perhaps you don’t know any return teleportation spells or don’t what you did to get there in the first place in order to undo it, you just remember when you are looking for someone to blame, that to conjure up a mirror and look into and go ‘Oh Yeah that’s who I’m suppose to blame.” he commented dryly.

Valeria glared at her brother with intensity and was about to toss a rude suggestion back at him, when she realize he might be kinda right, superheroes did have a track record of ending up in alternate dimensions and without the proper magical education she could be up the proverbial creek without a paddle. “I hate you Frankie” she complained as she threw her head down on the work table with a thud.

“Hey it was nothing that what big brothers are for, we must dash our little sisters ridiculous and life threatening fantasies at least a few times, so that way later when mom asks if I had anything to do with it I can say no but also that till at least try and warn you of the possible outcomes.” He commented with a wide smile on his face and his eyes sparkling with laughter like their Uncle Johnny.

Valeria rolled her eyes and got up from the her stool ready to leave her brother’s “Fortress of Solitude”, when he called out to her.

“Oh and to be fair Sis, Nico would have killed to have a teacher to explain everything as she was going along, the Staff of One is no cheerleader’s baton, that thing is loaded with some dark magic that eats at its owner’s soul unless their will is strong enough to get it to bend to their will. And as for Megan well I got three words for you Soul Dagger and Illyana.”

Valeria stared into her brother’s eyes that now reminded her of their father, serious and calculating every possibility but also the depth of caring for his family and loved ones and the need and want to make sure they were always safe by giving them all the ‘data’ even if it seemed unnecessary. She smirked and turned around and called out “Thanks, Dad”

Franklin blinked and then snorted, muttering under his breath about teen superheroes and how he definitely should call Lou and tell her that she was lucky being an only child.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Val road the lift back up to Fantastic Four’s apartment, musing whether or not she should call Billy to see if he had forgiven her yet for the plague of locust or just magically pop over there and surprise him. Val smirked at the idea. The lift popped open few minutes later in the foyer of the apartment but no one stepped off.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please R&R, all criticism is welcomed and requests for the appearance of any characters you would like to see in future chapters. This can also be found on fanfiction.net in the Young Avengers archive, the next chapter should be up soon and will focus on Billy and Luna discussing the problem that is Val.

I am currently working on some fanfiction that I have had on my laptop for a few months now, just some ideas and story lines that have been sitting on the back burner. One of them I already posted on fanfiction.net, my username is Solunita over there and the story can be found in Comics:Young Avengers. It is set in the future of the Young Avengers and will focus on Wiccan, Speed, their cousin Luna, Franklin and Valeria Richards and other supporting casts from throughout the Marvel verse. The other I hope to be posting soon will be in the X-Men Evolution verse centering around Rogue and a gap year adventure to London, where she will deal with Hellfire Club, Growing Powers, Starting and managing her own squad of mutants that she finds in London.  I hope to post both here soon.
