Maria is a prisoner on a ship when the Black Storm hits! Those Black Pirates have the worst reputation. Captain Stone valiantly fights off the pirates, but for how long? And what will he do when he's faced with the Black Storm's Captain? ***This story will have short chapters (under 600 words probably). All chapters will be Fruit Pickings - written to respect a certain prompt received from the Fruit Pickings competition. I'll try to have this story make sense, but it is an experiment and an exercise. Have fun! I know I'll enjoy the challenge of writing a story with each chapter having to respect a certain prompt or challenge!*** SLOW UPDATES - I need a prompt to continue the story, otherwise no new chapter.

In the gritty city of Dusk, seventeen-year-old Irina makes her living as the street magician Bantheir’s assistant. The job isn’t glamorous, but she loves the crowds, the shows, and most of all, the illusion of magic. But Irina’s world is shattered the night she is arrested and charged as Bantheir’s accomplice to murder—murder by magic. Real magic, the kind that’s been forbidden since the old wars. Irina finds the idea of flashy showman Bantheir using actual magic to kill someone laughable, but she’s the only one who sees how ridiculous the claim is. But how can she convince everyone Bantheir is innocent when they’ve already made up their minds? Desperate, Irina must decide who she can trust to help her win her freedom. Is the surly, handsome Captain Leonid telling the truth when he says he believes Irina is innocent, or is he just using her to get to Bantheir? What about Aden, the sweet soldier and longtime fan of Irina’s who claims he’s on her side? Irina said she wanted to know the truth, but when she stumbles across a dark secret that changes everything, will she be strong enough to survive?

When a field injury kickstarts his senior year, heʼs turning his free time and attention to Wren. And maybe she might not want to be invisible after all. ***** [Watty's Collector's Edition Winner] [TFA Runaway Prize Winner] [[word count: 150,000-200,000 words]] Cover designed by Ashley Santoro

She didn't exactly know him, but that doesn't stop her from feeling like there was something she could have done to help him.
