Living in a world where the human race is dying off faster than it can reproduce, sixteen year old Maddie Ryan has started her period, an almost guaranteed sign of fertility. Knowing it's only a matter of time before the government finds out and forces her into the life of a Breeder, where her sole purpose will be to help repopulate the earth, she is faced with a harrowing decision. Does she willingly accept her fate or take matters into her own hands and run? Both options will tear her away from the life she has always known and from those she loves most, her parents and her best friend Travis, the boy who owns her heart. For nineteen year old Travis Brennan there are only three people in this world who matter... his mother, his little sister Grace, and his best friend Maddie. Maddie's sudden disappearance not only forces him to confront his feelings for her, but leads to a chain of events that will forever alter the course of their lives. As truths are revealed and lies are uncovered, Travis and Maddie will learn that there is much more at stake than they could have ever imagined.

Dragons are real. Fairy-tales, not so much. Some stories of magic are not to be told at a child's bedside. But this one, while being scary, is true, and tells the tale of six people, that, while strange, are strong in their own ways. VOTE COMMENT SHARE . EDIT 6/6/19: This story is old and does not reflect my current writing. I leave it up for nostalgic purposes and for anyone who wants to read it.

The year is 2020, the facade of how police departments conduct justice has fallen and are being reformed, but the police are not the only ones who are changing. Men and women within organized crime, who have come to love and miss the honor and respect of 1920's mafias, have recreated them fitting themselves with the high pillars of what made organized crime great. They have planted seeds of acceptance within the reforming police so they will be left alone so long as they help tone down the high violence of crime by themselves while the police get their act together. Peace is created, yet some of the middle men in certain mafias are not liking the way the leaders are running the show. They decide to take matters into their own hands and hire mercenaries to preform off the books hits and stir up tensions and create rivalry between the high mafias. One of the mafias this happens to is the Toutre family, one of the few African American run mafias who run almost an entire city. John Kanter and his mercenary brethren take on a job to take out Don Toutre, their reason? They have no clue, but the money is good.
