Of all the days to have a problem, today was the worst. Of all the problems to have on all of the days, this was the worst. 3000 years, they'd travelled the stars. 3,000 years of searching and archiving, cataloguing every single planet in the entire Universe. Their journey was now over. The day was here when they could, finally return home.

Death, War, Pestilence and Famine - the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse - have been hanging around for so long waiting to being about the end of the world, they've forgotten who they really are. War is a Top Gear groupie, Fam (the Man) cheats at Monopoly against his sidekick Pestilencio and Death sighs a lot - something that's not too great for the local pigeon population but makes Cedric, their three-headed Jack Russell, very happy. Death realises the world is going down the pan without them, and decides to make it a better place. After all, it should be THEM destroying it, not us! Unfortunately, things don't quite go according to plan...

You prepare for payback.... - With the new installment of the Purge: Election Day coming, read Mr. Composure and see it from a completely different perspective!

I'd always heard the voices. From being a young child when the doctors had long since given up trying to find a cause, the voices woke me, screaming, in the night. But then, they began to guide me. When I started to find the dead bodies - animals, children - I was called a psychic. I was used to help, but I could only find what the voices wanted to show me. But then, one day, the killer chose another victim. It chose me, and only the voices could save me. Except, they weren't just voices. They were.... - Whilst on a long (7.5) hour flight to Wattpad HQ in Toronto, I was watching the film Solace. Part way through, an idea threw itself into my mind and I had to stop the film and start writing immediately. I also had another idea later on, again which I had to write down. This is the first of those ideas and is written for the #OnceUponNow promotion. Don't worry, Red Queen is being worked on too, but sometimes you just need to purge yourself of a story to be able to continue on with another.

Escaped from a lunatic asylum and haunted by his dead sister, he must find out why, and discover who is trying to use his power to destroy everything and everyone. ***** Dead, dead, dead. Say it enough times and it becomes just another word. What would you do? Could you kill a killer? Does the death of one appease the deaths of a hundred? What about that hundred against a thousand? What if you had no choice? Meet Sin. No, not that sort of sin, but Sin, crazy as a loon (you ask Sister Moon), and proud of it. Sin locks himself away in an asylum and, every so often, badboy he's believed to be, gets violent. That's only so they'll give him those nice drugs, though. The ones that help him forget. It's a pity they don't work. Sin, you see, has a serious problem. Well, it's not so much his problem, as ours - yours, mine and everyone else's. People die around Sin.
