Aru Shah's life get's absolutely upturned when she has to move from her beloved mother's house to her aunt's orphanage. Not choice, but need. But there, she finds true companionship when she meets Mini and Brynne who are also stranded in the place. And the mysterious, closed up, Aiden Acharya: beautiful, perfect, ethereal. And silent. He won't talk to her, anyone, and no one knows anything about him. As Aru navigates the true secrets behind her sentence to the orphanage and helps Brynne understand her past, she finds herself drawn to the cold boy who keeps everyone out.

Aru Shah isn't a normal high schooler. Sure, she dreads homework. Yeah, she has a complicated love life. And yet, she doesn't fit in. There's one side of her only her closest friends know. She is a Pandava. A reincarnation of the great Arjuna! While other teenagers gossip and talk, Aru here is fighting for her life and is saving the world every few months. While her peers learn about WW1 and algebra, Aru learns about war formations and Hindu mythology. Even though half the time she feels like it's the end of the world, she and her friends fight till the end. Who is Indra? Who's Hanuman? And who the heck is Urvashi? Find out with Aru on this thrilling adventures in this book full of Aus, oneshots and ARU SHAH HEAVEN!

Warnings: Cursing, romance, violence (maybe, but at least the mention of violence), and Kara being nice (because I'm a Kara Apologist). Arundhati Krithika Shah. She's not well-known, to almost everyone. Well, except on the streets. After she lost her parents in a car accident, which killed her mother and father-Krithika and Suyodhana Shah, she ended up in the orphanage. After two years of dealing with the cruelty of the orphanage workers-she refuses to call them her "caregivers"-she ran away. She made a life on the streets, learning how to fight instead of learning math or history, eventually carving her name into the list of people to avoid on the streets. Then there's Aiden Acharya, son of Malini Acharya, famous, no, more than famous singer and dancer. He always got what he wished for as soon as he desired it. He's that popular boy at school that never meant to be popular, but he is. Probably because of his looks-literally, he does get flirted with (I'm sorry, I had to), disappointingly. Aiden learned how to dance instead of how to throw a punch. He learned math and history instead of how to survive alone. He learned manners, how to be polite, how to pretend all day, how to control his temper so that he doesn't snap at anyone. In all honestly, they never meant to bump into each other-especially not right after Aru was in a fight.

The name "Arundhati" was whispered as if it were poison. People were warned-"Don't mess with Krithika Shah, for if her daughter comes to kill you." Each baby since her rise has been told horror stories about her, warned about her. Not one person, whether adult or child, didn't fear her. Except one. And his name is Aiden Acharya, prince of the land. The prince has always wondered what she's like, ever since his childhood best friend, Brynne Rao, sent him a letter, reassuring him that she's alright, just on Arundhati's ship, living with her. What happens when Prince Aiden Acharya is kidnapped by none other than Arundhati Krithika Shah herself, and meets her all-female crew? And what if, the gods forbid, the two fall in love? (By the way, the cover doesn't belong to me! I found it on Google, and decided to use it. It's not my picture.)

Warnings: Cursing/Swearing/Cussing, romance. Be warned. PoV (Point of View): Arundhati Krithika Shah, first person. Background Information: Aiden goes to a different school than Aru, and this is a mortal AU/figure skating AU. Couples: Brynne x Hira, Arundhati x Aiden, Yamini x Rudy. Summary: Aru and Aiden are meant to compete against each other in a skating contest, but they fall in love.

I randomly thought up of this while humming "Never Acting at All" by Melina KD. Yes, I just created Song of the Sea, for those of you who are here because of one of my other fanfics, and I haven't finished any of my other Aru Shah fanfics, but I got an idea, okay? Aru Shah's an actress. No, not a famous one, but enough to make money while she works on her (not yet published) books, just enough to live in a small apartment, afford groceries, and also own a small laptop. Aiden Acharya's an actor, hard at work, working to become a photographer. He's pretty famous, mainly for his looks, but he also works on only small plays...all of which get sold out quickly once people figure out that he's acting at that play. What happens when they both try out for, "The Little Mermaid" musical, and they get cast as Eric and Ariel? They both know that a relationship is unprofessional when you're both in a play together. But what will happen? What if they fall in love? (All characters, that aren't characters I created, belong to Roshani Chokshi, I think that that's her name, I forgot, and this is a human AU! The cover isn't mine either-it's the cover for the album "Playing Adult" by Melina KD, I just added the "Never Acting at All" at the top, and the, "BY: Parker88" at the bottom.)

Hello! So, this is actually a mermaid Aru Shah AU-about Aruden, of course! (Wow, I don't give any other ship attention at all, haha.) The first chapter has the background information, and the ships!

Yamini Kapoor-or, as her classmates call her, "Topper Mini- is a huge outcast at her school. No school friends, focused on studying, and no fun outings either. Just. Studies. What happens when Mini decides to join her classmates on a trek to climb the Bhuta Parvat, and she tries to really fit in? Rudra Sarpa-nicknamed "Rudy" by the school- is the most popular guy in college. His family situation sparks him to long to explore the world, hence this trip. When he meets Mini on the train, their friendship doesn't really take off- Mini's boring. Will these 2 evolve? Dunno. Guess you gotta read to find out :)

-NOT WRITTEN IN HINDI, ANYONE CAN READ- Aru Shah doesn't expect to get cast as Juliet as soon as she tries out for the role in her College Drama class. But she's ready to give it her all...um...does that include the kiss scene, though? Aiden Acharya, photography major, needs extra credit for a project because he missed a term for his mother's arm injury. Luckily, the drama class offers extra credit- and he's signed up for the photographer. Win-win, right? Until Aiden, one day, rehearses with Aru, Aiden as Romeo. Ms. Kandal decides to cast him- replacing a jealous guy named Dhruv- and sparks a friendship between the 2 leads. But as they rehearse, they see the lines between acting and reality start to blur...
