Three friends travel to a temple to ask Buddha for more wealth, love and good fortune. Featured humor story, and 2016 winner of a Watty.

In Karoi, a small but picturesque town at the foothills of the Himalayas, there lives a girl named Chitralekha. Losing her parents in a tragic car accident was a huge turning point for her, but amiable friends and an understanding uncle makes her life somewhat a little less gloomy. She even goes as far as to hope for the warm, fuzzy feeling with the arrival of the fun-loving Aditya in town. Her fairytale is indeed too good to be true and things soon start to reveal a sinister side. Aditya seems to be hiding a little too many secrets and eventually Chitra finds herself being dragged into a very dark vortex, not because she's someone exceptional, but simply because she was there at the wrong time, at the wrong place. Hell! She had been living in the wrong place for years without any knowledge about the dangers literally lurking in the shadows. With only her instincts and a secretive boy to rely upon, Chitra must tread very carefully. She might either make it out alive but heartbroken, or end up cold and dead. Surprisingly, she hopes for the latter. --- #15 in Paranormal (31st May 2016)

Holly Holloway (in her ironic name glory) was timid and soft-spoken. A quiet honors student who read more than she socialized. But her best friend, Layla Matthews, (the outgoing one) would always push her into doing things out of her comfort zone. After Layla moved to Canada (freaking Canada!), Holly realized just how much she relied on Layla for that extra push. She became even more introverted after her best friend left. But her life completely changes when she sees a terrible crime that sends her, the class clown, and the cute football captain into the Witness Protection Program. But now because of that fateful encounter she is living with two boys and a CIA agent who swears to protect the them. And Holly's name is changed for her protection, fatefully to Layla Hale. With her new name reminding her of her outgoing best friend, Holly creates a whole new identity for herself- one where she's confident and daring and attention-grabbing. She may even catch the eye of that cute football captain along the way. Cover by: sabrina-spellman

❝ Growing old is mandatory, but growing up is optional.❞ -Walt Disney ☃ ♪☃ ♪☃ It's Ellie McGillicuddy's Junior Year in high school. She's especially excited because she's joined theatre club and third year is known for having presented the best plays ever. She's convinced her best friend Celia to join with her, and everything seems to be going according to plan. But she suddenly feels like the whole world is conspiring against her when she very unfortunately has to work with a less than tolerable human being, who's been cast along with her, and whose interest in the school play and Disney in general are slim to none -actually none more than slim. So this is where Ellie McGillicuddy's difficult quest begins, and the results will determine whether she can pull off her current dream of starring in the school musical, or succumbing to her partner's negative attitude and giving up completely. ☢WARNING☢: Stories range from crazy mouse chasing, random sing-alongs with hot crustacean bands, being swift as a coursing river to become a man to defeat the Huns, being hypnotized by a mass of red hair, to people turning into llamas.
