Which is why high school sophomore Alina Davies is bent on claiming a spot with Elm Valley's most popular clique: The Royals.

Volume One of the Born For Harmony Series After moving to Arizona following her mother's death, an aloof, introverted, Jenna tries to cope up with everything that is being thrown at her. She tries to put up with the fact that she goes to high school after years of studying at home. Things were pretty... "unpredictable" as you may say. She then meets Grayson Sanders, who has been aloof and distant over everything, but who knew he was what she needed to uncover something shocking? ~~~ "Then everything blacked out until I heard this voice..." "What voice?" I ask her. "I don't know...I couldn't put my finger around it...all I know is that it said, 'You're next, Jenna Lou McCartney.'" She sighed, covering her eyes. That's...really different from the past nightmares she got. "I know I shouldn't let this get all over my head, but part of me felt like it was real..." I can't hold myself anymore. I wrap my arms around her and pull her into a hug.

This is a retelling of the hit indie game "Cuphead". It tells the story of Cuphead and Mugman, two brothers who live in the mystical Inkwell Isles. While exploring, the boys stumble upon the Devil's Casino. They have a good run of luck, but then the Devil himself shows up and strikes them a deal: if they win, they get the whole casino, but if they lose, the Devil takes their souls. Cuphead blindly accepts--and loses! The Devil takes pity on the poor mugs and gives them a task: collect the soul contracts of his debtors in two days. Will they collect all the souls in time, or will the Devil take their own?! The Delicious Last Course takes place a week after the rest of the series. The Legendary Chalice, who prefers to be called Alice Chalice, takes our cup boys to her home, the mysterious DLC Island. One of her friends, Chef Saltbaker, has come up with a recipe for a Wondertart that'll turn Alice corporeal again, and she needs their help getting the ingredients from some fearsome foes. Will they be able to get the ingredients and make the Wondertart? Sure, you might have heard this story before if you've played the game, but I'm trying to put my own spin on this, y'know, fleshing out the plot and characters more. I really enjoy writing this, and I hope you enjoy reading it. I do not own Cuphead, only this interpretation of it and the character Candy Camera. Cover art by DeviantArt user thatonegalaxygirl. I have also borrowed a few lines from Indeimaus, Slimecicle, Vine, and tamago2474, among other places.
