I realize I have no potential for making a full story with world building, so for the sake of keeping the creative juice going, I'll make oneshots of my characters. Here lies my characters from two books (maybe a few from my never-published ones). Never crossing worlds, but published in one book. This is for you, 老师, for suggesting me to do oneshots :) (Photo found in Pinterest) (I'm new to writing so don't be too mad at repeating words/phrases, misspellings, and mistakes in grammar) (Will occasionally have new pages if I have the motivation to finish one of my many short story parts)

"There's a sword. A powerful one. It can bend life, death, and destiny to their will," Harry informed. "So? What am I supposed to do?" I sneered. "There's a prophecy. It says two rivals have to work together to obtain it. And the information says it's you and I." Harry said. I looked at him with raised eyebrows, "I don't care. I'm not wasting any of my time with you." He looked at me, his face showed a flicker of hurt but quickly changed to anger, "I don't want to either. I just thought you deserve to know," and with that, he left. _______ Two rivals. One prophecy. A legendary sword. Forced together by fate, they must choose between pride and power. But when every step of the journey fuels their hatred, the real question isn't whether they can claim the sword. It's whether they can survive each other long enough to reach it. Harry Potter X reader
