The Painting by colleyflowers

"It took me five seconds to fall. The impact on my chest jarring my body but not my mind. I suppose this is the point where your life is supposed to flash before your eyes as time itself freezes - and it did in a way. But I didn't relive my life physically like walking through an old memory, déjà vu in each step. It was a feeling, something that started in my chest and spread to my fingertips, one so unique to me that it encapsulated each significant event into one single second." For as long as May can remember one mystery has haunted her world. A dirty window before her, the grim obstructing her vision, she has lived with a loss she can't identify - that is until one rainy night. Gradually the spots of dirt May scratched at for so long wipe away with the touch of a finger. But when she looks in will she like what she sees - or will curiosity kill the cat?

Ashes of Memories by WildeMaeve

A man appears in the shadows-silent, patient, deliberate. He moves through Thomas' house as if he belongs there, his movements steady and familiar. He never looks at Thomas directly. He just takes things. A photograph that Thomas can't remember taking. When Thomas wakes, the items no longer have meaning to him. Any value that the items had to Thomas are lost. At first, it's easy to laugh off. A vivid dream, a restless mind, a trick of memory. The dreams return, each one more vivid than the last. The man comes closer. His presence lingers longer. With every visit, memories vanish. Thomas starts writing everything down. Details, times, what's missing, what's left. But the harder he tries to keep track, the less certain he becomes of what's true. His notes contradict themselves. Familiar faces start to feel like strangers. Whole days slip away. The man in his dreams isn't just stealing objects anymore. He's taking pieces. Small fragments of Thomas' life, his routines, his relationships, and, slowly, the edges of his sanity. Then comes the most terrifying realization: The figure is not a stranger. He looks like Thomas. Moves like Thomas. And sometimes, in the space between dreams, Thomas can feel himself inside the man's body, doing the taking, doing the hiding, doing the destroying. Haunted by what he can't explain, Thomas searches for answer, through doctors, old journals, even the walls of his own home. What he uncovers is a trail of missing time, broken memories, and a secret that binds the dream to the waking world. But the closer he gets to the truth, the less of himself remains to understand it. Ashes of Memory is a psychological thriller about identity, loss, and the quiet terror of watching your world unravel one detail at a time. It's a story of a man trapped in a reality he can no longer trust, facing an intruder who may not exist? Discovering that the darkest mysteries aren't found in nightmares, but in the spaces they leave behind.
