Jamie Winchester is just ten years old when her father mysteriously disappears on a hunt, but the slump in her shoulders, the hollow look in her eyes suggest a loss far deeper than the few weeks he's been gone. Has he been fading away long before his physical disappearance? JJ doesn't know. Jamie grapples with the fear of abandonment, a chilling echo of losing her mom, dad disappearing, and Sam leaving for college. Now, she clings to the hope that Dean, her remaining anchor, won't leave her either. And she tries to bite back the hope that Sam will stay after finding Dad. Sam and Dean try their best to protect her from being left again. Protect her from whatever they may face in doing so. The most important thing to them is her. Making sure she is safe. Unfortunately, they don't know her fate is already embedded into the story.

Statistics. That word means a funny thing to Alba Winslow as she knows almost every single one is out to get her. Forty percent of tributes each year come from community homes, a place where every single child is required to take out the maximum amount of Tessera as a form of payment for the roof over there heads. Where every single child is required to put there name into that bowl that leads to almost certain death as many times as legally possible. The place Alba calls home or at least the closest thing she's ever had to one. On the day of Albas reaping everything changes. Her name is plucked from the bowl like so many unfortunate children before her and she is forced to participate in the games that are punishment for actions committed long before she was even alive. (I hate this description so much *choking emote* I shall be changing it when I can cook up something better)

Tiger Mallory is eight years old. Alone in the walker-infested woods of rural Georgia, with nothing but a knife and a dog, she knows her chances of survival are slim. If her sister was still here, perhaps there would be a little more hope for her, but Jackie is gone, and it's the sort of gone that people don't usually come back from. Not anymore. So, when a little girl comes running through her forest, Tiger decides to chase her. Out of boredom, hope or loneliness, she isn't really sure, but it suddenly gets a whole lot more complicated than just that little girl. Some bitchass cop and his redneck friend are looking for the kid too, and they want to bring Tiger with them. Just for now. Just until they find the girl. And really, who is Tiger to refuse? She's just using them, same way they'll use her. Maybe she'll survive a little longer with Rick Grimes. Hey, maybe she'll even find her sister.

"And it hurts to miss you, but it's worse to know That I'm the reason you won't come home" ~ Butterflies are seldom seen in District Nine, but when they do appear, the residents view it as a good sign. Whispers always spread quickly through the district, suggesting that the butterfly symbolizes joy and signal that change and transformation are forthcoming. However, twelve-year-old Ceres Solace is unaware that when a butterfly lands on her just before her first Reaping, her entire life is about to dramatically change in ways she cannot prevent.

Despite her rocky upbringing, Juniper Dixon strives to be kind to all things, even those who are not kind to her- except for the dead. She didn't really fit in at school or at home, but she supposes that doesn't really matter, now that the dead are walking. All that matters is that she keeps breathing. At least, that's what her dad says. • ⚠️ This book has mature themes such as EDs and abuse, with slight mentions of sa and suicide. They aren't constant and they're not nearly as intense as they are in Future Ghosts, but they are there. ⚠️ If there are any typos/errors, please don't hesitate to point them out so I can fix them! Comments are appreciated! Enjoy!

Avery Belova knew two things. 1. that her mother was Yelena Belova. 2. that ballet was her entire life. Avery grew up in the red room.

Though what Avery didn't know is that her mother would come and rescue her from the red room just as she was about to be exterminated. But does Yelena even want her? -✿- Started ~ 12th of February 2025 Ended ~

Project Reborn was founded in the fall of 1954, in hopes of creating the next Captain America. The project focused on creating a life form with Steven Grant Rogers strength and mindset that could be easily molded and manipulated into the perfect soldier to take down the western world. Only problem with this plan is that Hydra scientists didn't account for the fact that maybe these soldiers wouldn't quite fit the role they forced down their throats, since the day they were created. 5 children were created. One after the other. None making it past the the first 15 years of life except subject #05. Deemed a traitor, a deserter after defecting alongside The Winter Soldier in the Spring of 2014.
