"Talk to you about it?" I asked with a dark laugh. "it's not as easy as you make it sound," "Yes, Garret! Talking! You know what that is right? It's very easy! You just open your mouth and let the words that are in your head, come out of your mouth." "It's not that simple," I fought down emotions that were building up. "Yes, it is! See, i'm doing it right now!" "No-it's not!" "Yes!" "No!" "Yes! just talk, dang it!-" "You just expect it to be easy to talk about my dead parents?! About how guilty I feel for not visiting their grave for the past 11 years?! I didn't even realize how long it's been, I had pretty much forgotten about them for 11 years! Do you know what kind of guilt is eating at me right now!" I shouted in angst, my hands grabbing at the clothes on top of my head and pushing it into myself, wanting to just be shielded away from everything I was feeling, guilt, sadness, from thinking about more people I've lost in my life. Before I could even react, Keeley's tiny arms wrapped themselves around my torso. ~

When Sammy's parents got divorced, she didn't mind at all, because she knew that they weren't meant to be together, and if they weren't happy with each other, then they don't have to stay together for her sake. She lived with her mom, and her dad visited regularly, when he could get away from his work; running a top class private boarding school. Her mom turns on her when her favourite person leaves town, and her life slowly starts losing meaning, and she can't think of anything that makes her happy, except being with her best friend. Then, she goes too... With nothing making her happy in her small town, she makes a life-changing decision, that she thinks will benifit her, and make her life all that she wanted. Or, it could go very wrong and be worse than staying where she is. "Dad, I want to live with you" I told him over the phone, in tears. Nothing new there. "Samantha, you know I'd love you too, but there isn't any school around this area, remember? My school is in the countryside, with nothing within a short driving dinstance" he all but rejected me. "Then can I move schools? Attend your boarding school?" He was silent, then let out a long sigh of defeat. "I'll enroll you now. Pack your things, I'll send a car in the morning for you." That was all I needed to hear, and I was thrilled. Without making noise, I danced around my room and repeatedly thanked him. Later that night, after the usual abuse, I silently packed my things when she was passed out. I hurried in doing it, and stored them at the back of my closet so she couldn't see them when she checked up on me. You're doing it, Sammy. You're finally getting out of here; away from all the bitchy girls, your mom, and old memories with Fletcher. I'm proud of you, girl...

It has begun. The internet went down. Cell phone towers ceased to function. Electromagnetic pulses caused automobiles with computers to lose power instantly. Martial law was declared. FEMA Camps were powered up. Resistance we were told was futile. That's the problem with us Americans though. We fight amongst ourselves but when you try to go from President to Dictator, and think to take away our freedom and the lives of those that disagree....you not only woke up the "Sleeping Giant" as the surrendering Japanese once stated. You done unleashed hell. And hell is coming. Tick tock. --------------/ON HOLD/-------------- <Updates come faster with votes and comments> WINK-WINK. All rights reserved.

---------------------------------- The Streetfighter and the Gang Lord. One would expect the guy was the gang lord while the girl was the feisty streetfighter right? Oh how are you so wrong. .............................. Xavier Collins was the streetfighter known as 'The Crusher' at night and the 'bad boy' at school. He was known for being arrogant, reckless, and has a pride of a boxer. But don't get me wrong, he doesn't sleep around like those players. No, he would rather spin his motor than sucking a girl's face. Now, Meet Annalissa Winters. The 16 year old loner at school but the leader of the most feared yet respected gang in the town. Black Blood. Like her last name, her demeanor was of an ice princess in the cold winter, but that's what makes it more scarier. Both of them are different yet in similar situation. Read the first page to read to summary further... Date of Project: 01-10-2014 End of Project: 05-10-2015 Its really cringy so read at your own risk :)

Asha Black isn't your typical 15 year old girl. She street fights for money to pay for all of her mothers debts and everyone knows not to mess with her. She goes by The Black Dragon when she street fights or she knows she'll be thrown to a pit of snakes if the testosterone fuelled males found out they were getting beat up by a girl. She's not some emotional, prissy girly girl which is one reason as to why she's so different. She can beat up anyone and has never lost a fight so what happens when her mum wants to move to Australia, Sydney to be exact? She gets pissed that's what. Sydney is so different from all her previous homes, not just because of the scenery but also because of the people. While staying in oh,so lovely Sydney she bumps into an old, lets call it, enemy and that doesn't go so great when their gang is after her and to top it all off she just has to meet Kolton, the egotistical prick who can't keep his annoying mouth shut. Asha is in the ride for her life so buckle up and keep your hands and feet inside the roller coaster at all times because She so happens to be Asha black; the girl you don't ever want to mess with.
