On the flip of a coin, people die around Sin. Escaped from a lunatic asylum and haunted by his dead sister, he must find out why, and discover who is trying to use his power to destroy everything and everyone. ***** Dead, dead, dead. Say it enough times and it becomes just another word. What would you do? Could you kill a killer? Does the death of one appease the deaths of a hundred? What about that hundred against a thousand? What if you had no choice? Meet Sin. No, not that sort of sin, but Sin, crazy as a loon (you ask Sister Moon), and proud of it. Sin locks himself away in an asylum and, every so often, badboy he's believed to be, gets violent. That's only so they'll give him those nice drugs, though. The ones that help him forget. It's a pity they don't work. Sin, you see, has a serious problem. Well, it's not so much his problem, as ours - yours, mine and everyone else's. People die around Sin.

"Everyone wasn't how they were in reality, they had a different mask, a different personality." ______________________________ What harm could an account in Stelp.com, an online free study course, possibly do? But when its discussion forum is more like a social networking site in itself. What else can you expect more from the site? Allison Drake was intruigued by the idea of having a social media account for the very first time. How could she possibly leave such an offer? Hence, she went on with her boring account to make it as attractive as she could. From putting an appealing tumblr girl picture as her profile picture to changing the 'space for name of school' to 'status'. But never in her wildest dream had she thought she'd meet her dream guy. Like literally, dream guy. The one she dreamt about , the one with the mesmerising eyes, the soft lips and the cutest smile with that dimple on his right cheek. But existence of such a species was an abstract idea to her. That dream was granted to her in form of Austin Salford. But there's one problem. Austin Salford, her perfect guy, was immensely popular on Stelp. To reach his popularity and get his attention she has to be the queen bee of Stelp. This is a new social media and she is hell bent over being the queen bee. ● ● ● ACHIEVEMENTS □ □ □ ☆Awards☆ WINNER of 2nd place in short story on Rarity Awards.
