Ian, Niko and Raelynn sat in front of the Vice Principal of Oakhill Elementary School.

Soon after, Harrison Ford walked inside.

He had a tall and athletic stature with a strong jawline and expressive eyes. His hair had greyed, adding to his distinguished and mature look. He was dressed in simple jeans and a T-shirt which was covered with a jacket.

The look made Ian remember Harrison from his previous life.

Ian had the urge to stand up from his chair, but he sat still.

“Mr Renner, I’ve heard a lot about you from my wife itself,” he said, making a joke.

Niko chuckled along with Raelynn.

“Please, have a seat,” the vice principal gave the chair.

“So, why am I called here?” Harrison questioned.

In less than thirty minutes, Ian, Rae, Niko and Harrison were in a private room discussing Ian’s idea. Harrison’s questions were answered. Ian went ahead and talked about how he was planning to do Star Wars next. He also described the character’s features.

“You’re telling me, you really came in here to talk to me about a movie? And me to act in it?” he questioned.

Ian nodded.

“Exactly.”

“Do you think that this would really work?” Harrison questioned.

Although at first, Harrison was reluctant, Ian explained the storyline in detail. To the question, ‘Does he even want to act?’ The answer was simple. Everyone who lived around Hollywood, at least once wanted to grow up and become an actor.

It was the same with Harrison Ford.

He wanted to become an actor once, but his real goal was to teach kids. And he was aware that not everyone can achieve their American dream.

“Yes. I’m here to invite you, but only if you like the concept and can see yourself acting as Han Solo,” Ian said and sat back.

Harrison contemplated. His thoughts ran deep as he looked at Ian and the other two people from time to time.

“Look, Mr. Ford, we came here unannounced and it’s time we leave, but… You don’t have to give an answer right away-”

“Oh, is that so? I thought I might need to.”

Ian shook his head immediately.

“Not at all, take your time. Think through, if you want to go ahead, we can… I can let you read one or two episodes. But after signing an NDA,” he said out of respect and smiled.

The smile reached Harrison’s mind. He understood that it was no joke that Ian Renner was actually in front of him asking him to act.

“I’ll let you know, whom should I inform about my… reply?” he asked.

“My assistant. Here’s his email.”

Ian and his team left the premises after taking a promise from the teacher that he’d think it through thoroughly. And Ian made sure for him to understand that it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

He knew that it would make things easier for him.

“Ladies and gentlemen, please give a warm welcome to an incredibly talented author who has taken the literary world by storm. He is mostly popular for his extreme directory skills, but he also recently acted in a movie—Kiara! And, today, we have the privilege of introducing you to the one and only Ian, a master storyteller who has captured the hearts of readers with his diverse range of novels!!”

The audience applauded and cheered.

It was the live show of Ian’s interview to announce the newest upcoming book. The interview was requested by Actus Books to announce the A Game Thrones launch.

“Ian has already made a significant impact in the publishing industry with his thrilling Resident Evil franchise, immersing readers in a world of suspense, horror, and adrenaline-pumping action. His ability to bring the gripping narrative and characters to life has garnered him a loyal following of fans worldwide! The video game hit it big in no time!”

“But that's not all! Ian's creative prowess extends beyond the realm of survival horror. He has also authored the highly popular Percy Jackson book series, enthralling readers with tales of Greek mythology, epic quests, and the adventures of young demigods. Ian's imaginative storytelling and his knack for weaving together mythology and modern-day settings have made him a favourite among both young and adult readers alike. When is the next book coming?” the host questioned Ian.

“Soon,” he said and everyone applauded.

Ian’s welcome was announced likewise.

“So, ladies and gentlemen, let's give a round of applause to the extraordinary author, Ian, whose boundless imagination and remarkable storytelling abilities continue to redefine the landscape of literature.”

“Thank you so much, it feels so great to be here, with Mr. M. J. Steven, the publisher of Actus Books, who consecutively made my books bestsellers,” he said and everyone applauded again.

“It was all him,” Steven said, which was followed by another round of applause.

“So, Ian, tell me about what is next? What are you planning?” the host asked. “Honestly, if we are taking all the directors in the industry… They take a lot of time to produce… New movies, but Ian! You’re a miracle!”

The compliments made Ian smile at the cameras.

“And… I have something very special in my hand tonight!”

“Oh, I’m thrilled,” Ian replied.

The cover was about to be revealed to the public. The viewers of the live show were skyrocketing. From the corner of the eye, in the display screen which showed the viewers and if they liked or disliked the show, it was shown that the numbers continuously increased.

15k viewers

18k viewers

30k viewers

The numbers kept on going.

“Do I have your permission, author?” The host questioned.

Ian nodded and looked at the crowd. They all cheered.

“Yes, you do!”

“A GAME OF THRONES! THE BOOK WILL BE RELEASED on JANUARY 18TH 2023!”

The crowd started yelling and clapping loudly.

The views had hit 100k and Ian bowed politely.

“Thank you so much! Thank you! Thank you!”

It took some time to quiet down the cheers of the crowd. And as all of them were readers and fans of Ian, their cheers took five minutes to die down.

“Tell me about this…. This thing I have in my hand!”
