Nepenthe (n.) is a fictional medicine for sorrow, literally an anti-depressant - a "drug of forgetfulness" mentioned in ancient Greek literature and Greek mythology, depicted as originating in Egypt.

Trinity King has been locked away in a school for the "gifted" ever since she predicted the exact number of people murdered in the London terror attack of 2018.
  
With every day a chore, trying to not be consumed by her thoughts and endearing stomach cramps, Trinity feels the world around her stir. And when Nathan Langston turns up, proclaiming to be able to hear the thoughts of others - and the dead - she knows she is not alone.
  
When people start disappearing at Rosewood Asylum and School For The Gifted, Trinity can't tear away her keen eye. As more and more children vanish under the veil of the night, the numbers add up, and Trinity realizes a horrifying truth.
  
Because whenever she blinks, the numbers 2, 4 and 9 are imprinted on her eyelids. And she's about to find out the reason why.

The Hunt by PandaGoddess1213
4 parts Ongoing
Trapped in a mysterious school with no clear way out, students must navigate a web of danger, betrayal, and hidden secrets. Is escape even possible? The rules are simple: break them, and you disappear. But within these walls, students can turn against each other in the battle for survival. Every day is a hunt, a deadly game that begins the moment the bell rings. Classroom C-3041 students share a single desperate goal: escape. But when a brutal Hunt wipes out a significant portion of the school's population, their mission shifts-now, they must find new students to fill the empty seats, or face punishment. The problem? Students are hardly trustworthy. In a school where sanity is a luxury and loyalty is fleeting, who can they count on? Terrance, the reluctant leader of C-3041, must keep his class alive while facing threats from within and outside the classroom. The rumors of a hidden school map, that supposedly reveals the location of the exit, might offer a chance at freedom. But when they risk everything to search for answers in the forbidden library, they uncover a map- that doesn't lead to an exit but to untouched, mysterious corners of the school. It promises a clue, but what if it's not just the school they need to escape from-but their own forgotten past? As they delve deeper into the school's darkest secrets, Terrance and his classmates must confront their shattered memories, surviving not only the dangers lurking in every corner but the ghosts of betrayal that threaten to tear them apart. In this school, it's not just about escaping-it's about staying sane long enough to uncover the truth.

"You should have known me better than this, little sparrow," He chuckled deeply, his gaze fixed on me. "Lucas please!" I cried, now stopped by the wall as my heart beats faintly. "Don't worry it's just a little game, you and I will play, you'll love it, little sparrow," He smirked. I knew this was a trick, Ben lied when he said he wouldn't hurt me and I stupidly fell into the trap. Now, I was alone with him and in his room. I think this is the time for me to announce my funeral... "Strip!" His cold voice snapped me out,as he stared at me with a deadpan expression while I gazed at him in ultra shock. *********************************** Camilla Evans is a gentle nerd in her finals at Watermark Highschool.

The Dark Witch: The Nox Haven Series

36 parts Complete

I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began. I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them. That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world. ... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all. ---------------------------------------------------------- Highest Rank: #2 in Paranormal 1st Place winner of The Night Shift's Killer Competition 4/10/16 Illustration by: Stephanie Pitino (www.ClairObscur.fr) (1st book in series)
