**This book features short, fun, snappy chapters** **Perfectly fine as a standalone** [Caution: may pack a couple of gutpunches.] "First things first: this is the story of how I die. Over and over again." __________________________________ Marra is NOT a vampire. He is a normal human, just like you. At least, that's what he tells himself. Life pits him against odds so bleak, that he'd rather die than face them. That's precisely the problem though. He just doesn't seem to . . . die. And now he's headed towards his worst nightmare, accompanied by a grumpy one-armed adult, a quippy spirit, a copperhead nerd, a sassy actor, a beagle, and a corpse. Welcome to his wacky world. Herein lies a hilarious, heartfelt, and first-hand account from Marra himself, ridden with characters to tickle your funnybone, witchraft to bewitch you, and loads of weird but laugh-out-loud stuff. Like, loads. Enjoy. ______________________________________ { Awesome cover by @jaszthewayyoulikeit } #completed ***All rights reserved: Do not recreate or plagiarise. This is an original work.***

**I will be posting this story to RoyalRoad** First came the stars. Then came the dreams. Dreams that warn of the coming of celestial beings. The year is 2036 and humanity faces one of its greatest challenges yet. A technological war between the sky and the Earth manifests after aliens and cosmic beings seek revenge for a fallen brother, stolen and experimented on by the U.S. government. Celestial entities from another dimension invade Earth, infiltrating the atmosphere through a hole torn in the sky. Humanity has to fight for survival and protect those they hold dear, while three teenagers must rise together to alleviate the battle before it spins further out of control. Phoenix Newman, Alex Ramiro, and Andy Caulfield are three victims of a fallen economy, polluted to no end. Together, they derive plans to take down the enemies and save the good. The issue is . . . they don't know which is which. Amongst the Sky is a book about the value of friendship, the fault in our stars, and the fears of mankind. It is a story about bravery and heroism, love and determination - how easily mankind falls under the heels of pressure. --- They swaggered from the vehicle and stopped halfway across the junction with a disturbing aura of ambiguity, as if their bodies were robotic and all the components that made them human were stripped from their fibres; as if they might've been only so-so from shoulder to shoulder but dangerous from the waist down. Andy knew they were up to something - the way they instinctively glared at him was all the more reason to believe so. It appeared as though the apparel wasn't intimidating enough; they needed to foster nightmarish insanity - a demeanour he wouldn't want to spend the night alone with.

The world is a dark and scary place, full of psychopaths that feel compulsion to commit heinous acts and feel no guilt afterwards. But what if there was a way to feed these compulsions without having anyone die? Meet Dr. Clowd, a renowned Memory Therapist. She has made it her purpose to prevent such travesties from ever occurring by treating those classified as "pre-criminals", specifically deterring predicted murderers. The concept is simple: provide a memory of a killing for the urge to be sated. It will save lives. But the reality is not so simple. Dr. Clowd is thrown into an investigation, after sharing the memory of a young girl's murder with multiple pre-criminals, making the investigation that much harder for the lead detective. The only catch, it's her own memory she's sharing. Can Dr. Clowd help solve the investigation while keeping her dark side a secret?

"He lived like a dead tree in a graveyard." "A Storm On The Mountain" is nominally about Aanav, a young boy who flees the portrait of a family and finds refuge on a hill where he befriends a shepherd who wears goat-skin-trousers. Still, his chaotic childhood becomes a haunting figure that reflects the silence of his present. Profoundly delicate with arresting imagery, the story narrates a broken heart, who brings these shattered pieces onto a hill and tries to make a very unperfect mended heart. WARNING: LGBTQ (Only in Part II)

[THIS IS AN OLD DRAFT. Please read the rewrite that is currently up on my profile] ............ "Look, man, I'm sorry, okay? I didn't mean to rob the bank but I'm broke and I need the money." "If you need money, go get a job!" "I have a job!" "A real job, not blowing up the city -" "This is a real job, Stormy. It keeps you employed. I don't have to pay TAXES." ~ Super Storm is your typical superhero with stunning blonde hair and high morale. Gravel is your typical supervillain with a slight obsession over a certain someone's beautiful blonde hair and a mission he doesn't want to complete. Now let's say Gravel meets someone who uses the same shampoo as Super Storm. Let's say they bond over tennis. Let's say Gravel's sidekick isn't particularly fond of what's unfolding. Let's say this three-playered tennis match has more balls in the court than expected. Who'll win? Who'll lose? ~~ a story as told by a Supervillain (boyxboy) ••• 🏆 featured by SuperHero - the official Supers' account 🏆 featured by the official Action account 🏆 featured by Wattpad India 🏆 featured by Stories Undiscovered #1 in superhero #1 in supervillain #1 in FreeTheLGBT #1 in lgbtqIN #1 in OpenNovellaContest2019 #3 in bxb #4 in teenfiction
