When fifteen-year-old Chloe Maxwell moves with her mother to a small suburban town, it doesn't take long before rumors of a local legend summon an urge to investigate. Unbeknownst to everyone, including those closest to her, Chloe has a secret: she can see ghosts. For decades, stories of a former classmate haunting the halls of Apple Valley High School have circulated, scaring the squeamish and enticing the brave. The dead girl's soul is said to linger, making her presence known to those nearby. Unusual cold spots, flickering lights and the unexplained scent of roses have all been blamed on the spirit of Rose Marie Foster, whose activity has increased since Chloe's arrival. But it's just an urban legend, right? When Chloe comes face to face with the desperate specter, she sets out on a quest to release the entity, hoping she'll cross over to the other side. However, freeing the trapped spirit isn't as easy as it sounds, leaving Chloe to wonder if her clairvoyance is enough to help Rose move on, or will she put herself in danger of a fate worse than death?

Although these are called fairy tales, don't let that fool you ... not all of them have happy endings. In fact, some are filled with what nightmares are made of. Did you know that fairy tales in their original form were grotesque and frightening stories? Get ready to enjoy a collection of fairy tales that children should never be told ... just make sure to read them with the lights on.

THANK YOU, Wattpad, for the HQ Love Watty Award! Concept: A mysterious young woman flees from her troubled past only to discover it is impossible to escape THE SECRET that haunts her. *PLEASE NOTE: This story was originally inspired by the movie "Sleeping With the Enemy". * * * * * "I would never, Steven," she promised, turning away from him in an attempt to protect herself. "I know you wouldn't," he screamed. Cupping her chin in his hand, he forced her to look at him. "Because I would kill you." His words hung heavy in the air. Sarah's heart sank into her stomach. No matter how many times she'd heard the menacing phrase, she could never get used to it. It had the same affect on her as the first time he'd thrown the ugly words in her face. The familiar sting of bile rose in her throat, and she knew she would deplete the contents of her stomach once she was locked in the safety of their master bath. 'If I make it through this time,' she agonized. Her biggest fear was that one day he would really lose his temper with her. Who knew what would happen then? *This story is an unedited first draft.

This is a Nalu short story, so no haters! It was a normal day at the guild of Fairy Tail. Chairs flying, Fists punching, and a very loud MAN being heard throughout the building! Yes it was quite the normal day indeed, but when Lucy and the guild gets a suprise visit from Jude Heartfilia things are about to change! Jude's men kidnapped the guilds beloved Happy! In order for Happy to return to the guild unharmed, Lucy must marry the head director of the Phantom company 'Josh'! Lucy dicides to marry Josh in order to save Happy, but who will reject to this marriage even if it means getting Happy back!

Lucy held the picture in her hands, listening to the deafening roar of her opponent. Juvia and Gray lay on the ground behind her, Gray's body thrown over the other girls as if to protect her though both were unconscious. Wendy held an unconscious Charle in her arms, one eye clenched tightly shut as Happy placed one paw on her calf, tears in his eyes. Erza punched the ground angrily as the loud roar of a dragon vibrated through their ears, causing Lucy's shoulder's to prick. "Please..." She murmured, tears falling from her eyes as the back of the dragon slayer arched, a guttural yell escaping his throat. She jerked her head up, blonde hair fluttering around her shoulder as her chin quivered. "Please! Give me back Natsu! My Natsu! I want the Natsu I know! GIVE ME BACK NATSU OF FAIRY TAIL!!!" ------ Lucy has begun to clean out the old Heartfilia estate. On break from Fairy Tail after the year gap, Lucy has decided to settle down and finally clean out her fathers legacy. Alone in the large house, Lucy is legitimately surprised when Levy and Gray show up at her door with an offer to help. Things remain normal until a frantic Mirajane bursts into the house with terrible news: All of the dragon and God slayers from Sabertooth, Fairy Tail and Lamia Scale have fallen victim to a terrible and strange illness. Racing back to Magnolia, it's soon that the wizards learn that all Slayers throughout Fiore have fallen ill and worsen by the day. All thanks to Master Pierre of the dark guild, Black Enigma and his plans to take over the world with the power of all of the dragon slayers. And...only two people can save them: Two certain celestial mages with the combined power of the Twelve Zodiac keys -- Lucy Heartfilia and Yukino Aguria.

Many apprentices of all shapes and sizes! But what will their warrior name be? You decide!

Who am I? That's a really hard question to answer. Who do I think I am? Easier. I think I'm Skyelar Slivers. And I think I'm pretty average. Other than the fact that I've got a good sense of time, am athletic, and have no friends. Okay, well that's not true. I have one friend, Blue jay. I've known Blue jay since practically forever. He's always been there for me. Everyone thinks that he's just an imaginary friend. But he's not. He's real. So am I. Who Am I? I couldn't tell you. «props to @onomattopoeiaa for the AMAZING cover!»
