Pirate's Life For Me.... by jplupine
37 parts Complete Mature
[18+; Use an age indicator in YOUR BIO to confirm you're 18+ if you want to follow/comment or you'll be blocked for safety purposes] Deana Blake, a child raised without the affections of her father and the knowledge that her mother ran away with a pirate only to be hung like one soon after. Fighting to stay alive as her father sailed on a merchant ship, Deana learned many skills to get food or money even if it was pick-pocketing. She kept an old rum bottle to store what she could save and vowed to become the best sailor in the ocean to prove to her father and everyone else that her gender wasn't what was holding her back. Deana Blake, a woman serving as a cook aboard the ship Petrel, is not really getting anywhere closer to her dreams of being a well-known captain. Her skills in the kitchen are extraordinary, but her skills with a knife were just as known to anyone who dared enter her galley. She bribed her way onto the boat while manipulating the Captain to keep her aboard. Deana wouldn't do anything she didn't have to, and she wanted to earn the right to be a captain rather than take it, so that was how she spent years cooking for an ever-changing crew on the Petrel until the ship was attacked and sent to her watery grave. Deana Blake, a woman to be feared. Date Published: Nov 28, 2017 ✨~Ranks~✨ #1 BlackSails- 11/20/2021 #1 CharlesVane- 8/5/2023 #1 Piracy- 3/4/2024 #12 CanonxOC- 11/22/2021 #148 Pirates- 11/20/2021

#FightFor #AllHaveWeakness #ProjectBadBoy In a world where everything is constantly dying, a girl must find herself. The time is in the near future; People changed along with the world as we know it. People became greedy, they wanted things that they shouldn't be allowed to have. Everything began to change, stores began to get robbed, money wasn't a concern anymore with the people from the rapid increase in crime. These intense conditions caused a huge decline in population and resources. In an attempt to change how things were progressing-The TTC or the Time Travel Corporation destroyed the last remaining hope the world once had. Because of the lost hope, people began fighting in pointless wars, causing pollution in the air from overuse of bombs and radiation. Aya was still a very small child during this time, she was far too young to remember the wars that were held at her doorstep. Her father was a well-respected doctor, in an attempt to protect his daughter, he went crazy with his plans to create a special medicine that could protect one's body from toxins. He completed his experiment when she was only five years old, but it didn't go as planned. The medicine rejected her body and in turn, created a deadly poison that coated her skin. She never got sick, her injuries would heal rapidly, but most of all; every blessing comes with a curse. Her curse? She'd melt anything she came into contact with.

Super Sekken Story 1: The Ki to the Headmaster

32 parts Complete Mature

Hope. Courage. Self-value. Friends. These all were traits that former junior high soccer champion and first year Miyuki Sekken had none of until she first walked into the doors of her local High School. Despite being a sports athlete phenomenon in her school district, Miyuki dreaded its attention, and even quit her career in pursuit of living a simplistic daily routine. This daily routine would be inevitably interrupted when she chooses to 'branch out' by talking to people. Whether it be a chance of bad luck, fate, or karma, Sekken ends up speaking to someone who was unknowingly suffering from a curse: a curse that causes anyone who tries to get close to them to disappear. Miyuki Sekken would be the next victim, finding herself face-to-face against a once-thought mythical mafia. This gang is not just any gang either, but one who is run solely by the school students of Maguro High, who hold secrets to powers unheard of by the world. How this first year survive? Will she conquer her anxiety and thwart the gang's vicious rule? Or will she end up losing more than she could have imagined? P.S. I do NOT own any picrews used for character designs. I am not a good drawer so I resort to editing and other methods to portray designs. This story will soon also be added to the Royal Road Platform!
