The Curse of Time

Oh well, here we go...

I don't like it when I am signed up for shit.

Never

 Ever

If you asked me-" Hey, would you rather go on an adventure or stay at a boring place called home?" My answer would be-"I would like to stay at home, please."
Like 19 out of 18 times.

"But if you are destined for something, you must take responsibility for it." Okay, no matter how dramatic or cliche this line sounds- how drunk was that person who created my destiny?

There are various versions of people who create fate but let's stick to the three fates one ( I won't be actually surprised if they truly existed).To be honest I don't imagine these fates as solemn, old women with white hair who would offer you a smile if you walked past them while they are spinning their thread. Instead, I imagine them as two mischievous siblings and the third one is an innocent kid, who are given this responsibility.

So those two mischievous kids make the lives of the people miserable while the innocent one silently plans the life of a person without the notice of the other two and creates a normal life for that person. Somehow, these two come to know that their counterpart has been giving people a normal life so they would just jump in and snap the thread (the lifeline) saying - "Oops!"

I swear I usually don't make dark jokes.

Our human society is basically a storm. 15% ( The not-my-problem club)of the people who are in the eye of the storm which is calm and peaceful but they are clearly still surrounded by the high-velocity winds known as problems. The other 80%(the normal people club) are caught in the storm, the severity of the storm depending upon the location of that person. And so the problems range from a person who is undergoing a divorce to a person who is struggling to choose between writing and procrastinating on writing. Well, 15% I mentioned earlier usually live the almost normal life. Keyword- almost.

See I am optimistic when I want to be.

What about the 5% I left out?

If you are anywhere in the storm in a stabilised condition, just look up and if you find a girl with dark brown hair screaming at the top of her voice whilst being made to go from place to place by air owing to the winds- Congratulations!

You found me.

Here's a bag of gold, a whistle and a cookie.

So while you continue reading this story and come across an offer of leaving your normal life and become a hero, please read the terms and conditions before giving your initials on that paper.

Otherwise, you will be oblivious of the consequences:

1) May or may not have a happy ending.

2) Backstabbing in the worst way possible.

3)Have no idea what the hell is going on.

4) Tragic backstories.

5) Refunds will result in death.

Or you will end up like me. My motto is-

"I am usually a fan of situations when they go away."

I was supposed to be a normal teenage girl living a life which is not constantly endangered in the worst way possible. But no... I made this stupid mistake of trying to keep the spirit of love in between two lost lovers which somehow ended up in things known as coincidence. Coincidences that did not make any sense while at the same time it did. That very second I learnt that I was different and dangerous in ways I could not even imagine. All because two druggies walked into my life.

And changed my life forever. 

If you think that I ended up being an addict or something then let me tell you, nothing of those sorts happened ( don't do drugs, kids, it's not good and ruins everything)

My name is Alexia Jones by the way.

And this is my story...

*****

So yes this is like a character note of sorts and to all those amazing people who decided to give this book a chance- thank you so much.

A quick reminder- this book contains supernatural elements like powers and abilities. There will be many characters POV throughout the book. I have made my characters humane so of course, they will make mistakes and there will be character developments through the series.

This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, places, events and incidents are either the products of the author's imagination or used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.

And then again - all this work is original so I am pretty sure people won't copy it...

By any chance, if I learn that my book is copied by some person I will hunt him/her down! Want some stories ideas? Go read some books and be inspired by them- drop some references here and there but not the whole damn book! If you lack creativity and originality, it's fine not everyone is born with it anyways.

Okay, I should have probably given a heads up for that rant.

And also please don't like or hate characters only because their cast is someone you admire. And by hate I mean people stop reading the book just because the person you like became an antagonist in the book.

And lastly
