Polaris is an experiment that went wrong, now he is a very lethal weapon that can destroy mankind, and now the government is in the search to kill him. Can he find the help he needs to be a regular teenage boy with the help of a social outcast? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Polaris is a sixteen-year-old adopted teenager, but his parents aren't the sweet and loving kind of parents that would bake cookies and play a game of catch. His parents are scientists who love to experiment with their son. Due to the hundreds of experiments, Polaris now has the power that can freeze anything with a touch of his finger. Not only does he have to deal with this, but he also needs to control his temper, or else he can put the whole country into an icicle. Adena has been alone for as long as she can remember due to her lack of social skills. While her classmates hang out at parties, she is working at her father's convenience store, stacking shelves with canned food. On a walk home from a day at school, she collides with a mysterious boy with striking blue eyes and a pale face.

Joleen hopes to forget everything on the fringes of space. Even if she decided to turn back home, everyone who knows her back on Earth will be dead, and that's probably for the best. There are only three others on the all-but abandoned space station, but they don't ask too many questions, so Jo settles down for a long, quiet life drifting in the stars. Until an unadvised manned mission brings back an alien in the form of an obsessive, instinct-driven demon. None of them are trained for this. Note from the Author: For those who don't know, I am not a sensitive noob when it comes to criticism. How to handle criticism and, more importantly, how to use it is something they teach you in college as well as something you figure out when you're studying writing. So, if you lot have anything to point out, such as plot holes or 'this loser's character makes no sense, destroy him,' please let me know. I appreciate your feedback. For reals. Or is it fo shizzle?

Due to technical malfunctions within a large top secret government lab in Area 51, a deadly virus has been released into the world's water supply. This virus appears to only affect the world's animals and is spread between different species via a bite from an infected animal. The virus hijacks the host's nervous system and causes them to foam at the mouth- just like Rabies. While the virus will eventually leave its host brain dead and mutated beyond recognition, said host will still be "living" as zombies- slaves to the virus' every whim and desire. The virus has been observed within every animal from the largest bear to the smallest rodent (and even a rare few cases have been observed among sea creatures such as dolphins, sharks, and orcas). Long story short, no animal is safe from this virus' deadly rampage. This is the post-apocalyptic world as viewed by a massive black canine who is often called "Black Shuck" and various other names by the Humans or "The Angel of Death" by the animals. Whatever name this genderless animal goes by according to those around it, this canine is here for one purpose and one purpose only: to terrorize the hell out of the living. Join this knowledgable, highly intelligent, foul-mouthed entity as it explores this new world (and may even make a few friends on its adventures). Started: 8/19/18 Finished: TBD Updates: Mondays

"Find the egg of the most royal hue, then wings of light shall envelop you. Gather with care the egg of gold, and wings of metal will soon unfold. Among three sisters who squawk and squabble, the largest egg is set to wobble. Within the plains with storms mighty, an egg of night could stop the fighting. Covered in leaves on the forest below, wings of forest are waiting to go. With wings of metal they shall end the fight and with wings of light, they will do what's right. Wings of forest shall help set the norm. Once tempers calmed by wings of storm, peace shall arrive on feathered wings, and with it a new queen of wind. But two will die and one must learn, if she acknowledges a being higher, she'll have the power of wings of fire. Four Dragonets called on the brightest night to end the fight. Four Dragonets to do what's right." ~~~ Halcyon has known nothing but the darkness of the cave that she was hatched in, the four other Dragonets that were her nest-mates, and the strict teachings of their overbearing guardians. She has no idea that the fate of the world outside is in the talons of herself and her nest-mates Static, Sicoria, Goshawk, and Maple... or rather- she does- but she just doesn't care.

Born into a superstitious, polytheistic herd that roams the great plains of western North America, Salem doesn't think that she is anything but an ordinary mare; but while most members of her herd have coats of brown shades, grey, white, or a mix of those colors, she is the only one with a coat blacker than a starless midnight sky. This makes her a target for not only her peers, but also the foals and the adults in her herd alike and her odd, light blue eyes doesn't make things any easier. Viewed as a bad omen since her birth and named after the deity of death as a result, she is eventually chased out of the herd by the tyrannical lead stallion after suffering months of mistreatment from previous lead stallions when members of the once large, prosperous herd start dying from starvation. Now truly labeled as a curse and forced to live a solitary life, she struggles to get by. Her luck turns around when she meets three others; a temperamental, hot-headed work horse named Valkyrie, a food-loving rouge stallion named Sandstorm, and an under-sized outcast named Blight. As Salem, Valkyrie, Sandstorm, and Blight travel together, they can't help but notice how quickly the world around them is starting to detereorate. Rainfall slowly starts to become less and less frequent and as a result, plants begin to turn brown and wither while animals and people are starting to die of starvation. Things start to take a strange turn when an emaciated woman with tanned leathery skin, thin black hair, and strange golden eyes appears before the four horses one day; claiming to be Famine and that the four horses were each destined to play a role in the end of Humanity and the restoration of the entire planet. ~~~ Disclaimer: I do not own any of the images used; they are merely for base character references.

Eighteen-year-old Kara is in her first semester of college at Syracuse University. As a film major, she has big dreams of moving to Chicago, Los Angeles, or Atlanta and making it big in the industry post-graduation; but, being kidnapped and turned into a fire-breathing Mini Dragon wasn't exactly a part of those plans for her future. Being unwillingly turned into a cat-sized dragon after a fun night out almost certainly wasn't a part of her plan, and an alien invasion out of the blue further complicates things. Will Kara- now a Dragonet without a mind voice- be able to make it in this new world? Inspired by Upon Wings of Change by Crystal Scherer.

After the disbandment of Mr. Long's "Shifter Army" in Ireland and the threat of a third World War having been averted, the world is at peace once again. Most of the countries of the world treat Shifters who are level two and above no differently than before; except Russia. In Russia, Shifters who are level two and above are feared and seen as threats to the government and are sentenced to work camps or death; though, a lucky few have managed to flee into safe neighboring countries such as Mongolia and Finland while others got lucky enough to score a plane ticket to the U.S., Canada, or one of the Western European countries. Other Shifters, however, have reverted to living how they were before the world found out about their kind in order to avoid detection, imprisonment, and death at the hands of the country's government. Alyona is an average high school Sophomore living in Moscow, Russia. She is a quiet girl who does her best to blend in, stay in the shadows, and avoid confrontation whenever she can. On a snowy night, her world is drastically transformed; for better and for worse. This is the sequel to Fire Fox, but can be read separately. Author's note: Based off of @unbrokenworld's Silent Heroes series. I do not own anything except my OCs and some extra details that I added to enhance this particular spinoff series.

The wielders are coming, and they're ready for violence. With a cub in her arms, Arietta James, a dedicated vet technician in training, flees for her life and the life of the little shifter she's ready to die to protect. Her escape lands her right in the heart of the enemy territory: the shifters. Gavriel O'Connor, steadfast leader of the shifter territory, has worked too hard on rebuilding and unifying his people to allow a human to run rampant in his domain. Fully intending to turn her away, Gavriel prepares to rid his territory of another nuisance. Until his shifter side won't let him. There are too many questions about this young woman and not enough answers. His biggest question: how did she end up with one of his own? Arietta didn't imagine she'd live this long. Between the shifters and the wielders, she's braced for her final moments. However, when the shifters begrudgingly welcome her into their territory, she must make a decision: stay loyal to those of her kind, or reveal to the shifters a problem that could wipe them out entirely. Before it's too late-for them and for her. Season 1 of The Fated Series
