    My grandmother's story of the day the day when terrorists caused 4 planes to crash killing over 3,000 innocent Americans. I'm just so first rated right now and I don't know how to release so I decided to vent on here. This pain in my heart hearing these stories of this horrific day is a reminder of how imperfect this world is. I just needed somewhere to vent and let my feelings rush out. Please if there are any spelling errors please don't criticize me this is one of my first stories I've ever posted.

    It's me with another 9/11 story bc I have some weird stomach bug North Tower. She's an 11-year-old Manhattan native in the sixth grade. This girl loves reading, writing, art, and spending time with the best twin sister in the world. She also captains a team in one of the most well-known junior ice hockey leagues in the country. The only odd thing about her? She is the heart and soul...of one of the most famous buildings in New York City. Even that isn't very odd, at least not until the building comes crashing down one seemingly normal Tuesday morning. South Tower. 2001 is gonna be HER YEAR! Well...of course she's sharing it with her sister. Her silver hair, piercing silver eyes, and pale silver skin make her stand out from the millions of New Yorkers around her. Unlike her sister, she shines bright between the pipes as an extremely talented young goaltender. Everything else about her is the same as her sister, so they get along very well. South Tower really loves being a twin. Especially a Twin Tower. Trevor. He is twenty-one years old and just started working as a financial advisor in the 7 World Trade Center building. Living and working in bustling, colorful Lower Manhattan was his dream throughout all of his mostly boring Oklahoma childhood, and now he finally gets to do it for real! But one hot Tuesday morning in mid-September changes his New York City life in ways he never imagined. James. He's finally turning forty years old. He's the proud father of identical twin girls and the owner of a very successful Manhattan café. September 11 is going to be a very busy birthday for James! In addition to being a busy day, it will also be an emotional day. Especially when his daughters, the World Trade Center's Twin Towers, collapse and perish before his very eyes. Chapters are kinda short sorry ~COMPLETED!~ Word count: about 18k

    A story of finding faith in the last place you'd look... Orphaned at an early age, eighteen-year-old Leighton Asbury has always known the origin of her parents’ deaths. Horrifying and corrupt, it was the same day nearly three thousand other children lost someone to call home: September 11, 2001. Leighton's dealt with the knowledge as best as any surviving child could. In her hometown of Detroit, distractions like school and work make it easier to look past; outside of there, she has the overwhelming love and support of her boyfriend, Kyle, and the empowering strength of her adoptive parents, Michael and Caroline. But when Leighton receives a letter from Julliard’s Office of Admissions requesting her immediate arrival, she embarks on a journey that will forever change the way she views the tragic event that severed many hearts. Is it possible for one person who lives for the beauty of sound to silence the cries of a broken song?

    It is the year 1996 in New York City. Phoebe arrives with her mother, both just as empty-handed and lost as for what comes next. While figuring out what to do and how to get by, some things seem to at least change for the better and get a little easier. But this easy-going goes against the nature of NYC. Thanks to her "practically a New Yorker" cousin, Phoebe lands a job in a restaurant above the clouds: Windows on the World, at the top of the North Tower of the World Trade Center. The downside: too much proximity to the "suits". Also working in the Twin Tower complex, is a legal and financial advisor whose daily outfits consist exclusively of suits. Walter Cooperman. On his first visit to the restaurant in all the years that he's worked just two floors below, he comes face to face with a snarky waitress. Despite all the obvious signs telling him to face the opposite way, his consciousness marks another rhythm and decides to lend a hand the financially struggling girl. Yet, Phoebe can't help but view his good intentions as a double sided flaunt. Because that man is the embodiment of everything that she has been taught to reject. Their story never ends even when it does. There's still Faith.

    February 26th, 1993, New York is the most bustling city in America, with hundreds of thousands visiting every day. But at 12:18 PM, a huge explosion rocked the World Trade Center. The plan was to bring the towers down, destroy lives, and leave a massive mark on New York's history. In real life, this never happened. Only 6 were dead, but the damage was bad. The city would later move on like nothing ever happened. But in this reality, the vision of 2 of two towers falling together was real here. They fell Onto Each Other. Note: I'm trying not to offend anyone. This is a school project, so I had to do something. PS: Also, did you guys know this incident happened on my birthday? I was born in 2009, and this happened in 1993... I'm starting to feel like I have a connection with the Twin Towers. PPS: Story has been rewritten to stray away from the original story I made in October.

    What happened to the Oldest of the Owens Children on the day of 9-11 from an inside experience within the South Tower of the World Trade Center. *Please note: This is not based on an actual person who survived the horrendous 9-11 attacks of the World Trade Center in 2001.
