LOT'S MOUNTAIN
Magic, monsters, mayhem ... and high school. What could go wrong? Everything! I'm a freak, but I've got the God-given sense to know to keep it a secret that I can use magic to lose some things and to find other things. As magic goes, it totally sucks, especially since I can't control it. I couldn't use it to find my brother and save him from a serial killer. So what good is it that I can lose a shoe and find a hubcap? Some people do think I'm extra special, though. I don't know how they found out about me, but the Stone Men and their Black Dogs are after me every chance they get. It's their job to keep magic a secret and make you think the world is normal. The Glass Man's out to get me, too. He's just out to make everybody his psycho slave. There's a war coming between Stone and Glass, and I'm right in the middle. But this war isn't just about hidden magic and humans. When you're a little kid, your parents tell you that there isn't any such thing as monsters. Well, they're lying. Some monsters want to offer you a deal, and some, well, some just might end up your best friend. Others, they just want to eat you. Right now, I'm dodging homework and things trying to turn me into lunch. I'm gonna find a way out of this war and save my friends... or die trying--Complete

Home Sweet Home
Gretel never had much of an interest in magic, not really. The inn she runs just happens to be made out of candy. But that design choice was made by the home's previous occupant, the witch Agatha, who had tried to steal the youthful bodies of Gretel and her brother Hansel. The witch had misused her magic though, and as punishment the house took away her human form and trapped her inside of a gingerbread one. Gretel has big dreams though. She wants to expand their little cottage into the finest set of lodgings in all of Germany. Money is an issue. As are the tricks Agatha plays against on the customers, always trying to worm her way back into a human form. The money problem could be solved by a wealthy investor, such as her neighbor Thomas, but that man only has one thing on this mind. And then the war came. Across the border the French have overthrown their King and established something called a Republic. German troops march west to avenge the death of their Emperor's brother-in-law and Hansel has marched with them. What's more the magic in the house is fading. The witch Agatha says it needs a new Master to make new rules and new spells, or else it will melt away into nothing. But is Gretel up to the task?Complete

The Last Unicorn: The Bull's Vengeance
This is my [fan-made] take on what happens after the events of the movie/film (Not intended to be official sequel). In this story, as the unicorns return to their homes, and the last unicorn (The Lady Amalthea) returns to her lilac woods, danger lurks on the other end of the Earth. For the Red Bull has freed himself from the sea that was holding him captive after the unicorn defeated him. Now, without a master to give him directions, he did not have his eyes set on all unicorns. Instead, he was dead set on finding one, who was the unicorn who conquered him, and drove him into the sea that once held the other unicorns. Knowing of the danger as well, Schmendrick the magician and Molly Grue hurried to find the unicorn in her forest, and take her on yet another journey, in hopes of finding her safety. The road will not be that easy for the unicorn, however, as she will face great challenges along the road to freedom/safety. As she travels the path to the supposedly safe kingdom, the unicorn spends every waking minute afraid, her mind racing, as she knows the Bull is hot on her heels. [ETA: This [fanmade] story is not yet finished. I hope you enjoy my twist on what could have happened after the book! This is my first story in quite a while, so I look forward to adding to it over time as well. Thanks for looking!]Complete

Shrek: Once Upon A True Love's Kiss [Book 1]
We all have those weird dreams where we fight dragons, dream of a 'happily ever after'...or in my cousin Alice's case; make friends with a unicorn that literally poops edible rainbow candy. Alice and I, along with our friend Zero, help my aunt and uncle clear out their basement during spring break while they went away for their wedding anniversary. It all started when I ever so gracefully (but accidentally) tripped over a cupboard box (which in my defence, I never knew was there) with the words: 'Fragile - DO NOT TOUCH', written in black marker all over the box. While Alice and I were arguing, Zero tried to grab our attention. When he finally did, we were surprised to see him being sucked into a freakin' green swirling portal! Turns out, inside the box I tripped over had a crystal ball rolled out of it, and glowed a bright green. That was when we realised that that crystal ball, was the reason why a portal appeared and was trying to pull us in. And of course...I got separated from them, didn't I? Would you believe me if I told you we entered the world of our favourite movie when we were kids? You know...the Dreamworks movie, Shrek? The one with the fairy tale and Disney characters in? Yep, that's the one! Oh, sorry! I almost forgot to introduce myself: My name's Willow, and this is the story of our journey in the world of Shrek - creating bonds with Shrek himself, Fiona, Donkey and the gang...heck, even Dragon, too!

The High Queen of Narnia
Do you ever feel like you were born into the wrong world? Because that is exactly how Elodie Penvensie felt. Her twin brother Peter, and the rest of her younger siblings never understood her. In fact, they used to distance themselves from her quite a bit, seeing as Elodie's nose was always in a book, dreaming about the fantastical worlds she wished she was born into. And sometimes, wishes come true. Elodie's did when her youngest sister, Lucy, found herself walking through the wardrobe and into a land covered in snow. And for a moment, her life was perfect. It was everything she could've ever wanted. But all good moments must come to an end as they accidentally left the magical kingdom of Narnia. But when they're finally summoned back to face an army by the likes of which they'd never seen before, Aslan's words ring true. Nothing happens the same way twice. Because this time, they're given aid by Prince Caspian, the Tenth. And Elodie has never met someone so similar to her and yet so different in her entire lifetime, both in and outside of Narnia. So join Elodie on the adventure of a lifetime. Join her in Narnia, because Narnia has missed their High Queen. #1 in chroniclesofnarnia #3 in reepicheep #9 in eustace #9 in whitewitch #10 in thelionthewitchandthewardrobe #12 in princecaspian #22 in lucypenvensie #30 in peterpenvensie #36 in edmundpenvensie #42 in narnia (Prince Caspian - Voyage of the Dawn Treader) (Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters or plotlines.

Greyskin
Imilaris in a largely unknown world with a small pantheon of young gods. Hoping to create their Utopia, they took humans and made them more than what they were previously. Magic, power, beauty, all the things people covet were granted to them from their gods. But there would always be someone wishing to have more. In their pursuit of greed, people built gates, some of which lead to laces that should not be visited. The Utopia build by gods gets invaded by demons and gods struggle to overcome their invasion. Their success is limited, confining the demons to the eastern part of their world. Twenty odd years ago, a Demon Lord rose up and once again upset the balance of the world. With another invasion, he conquered the world and eradicated the most magnificent race in the world and robbing their goddess of her people. Soon after, the Demon Lord is betrayed, his empire crumbling. The goddess is on the brink of death, the last princess of her people enslaved and abused and with no way to help her. Now, the princess gives birth to something new, a union of light of the gods and demonic scourge. A demon, strong and powerful, cruel and awesome. A greyskin.Complete
