"Unless you start talking, and and answer the question truthfully Ms. Davis, the next thing you'll see is this beautiful head of hair rolling across the forest floor between us." A gruff beast of a man pulls his sword and presses it firmly to the neck of the man captured in his iron grasp. 

Life isn't all gumdrops and candy canes, and it doesn't take long on this forsaken planet to figure that out, even for the average soul. At 24 years old I have far too much experience supporting that statement. 

Those in positions of power are subject to an excessive number of threats ready to sink them into a black licorice lake, and send them back to the start line of the board game we pretend is a life we control.

 Strength to remain a player in the game is developed through time and experiences. What doesn't kill us, can only make us stronger. Or at least that's what I'm hoping for.All Rights Reserved

Everything by affinityforbook

Something more than normal teenagers struggles. It would have been easier to have everyday problems rather than these... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ We have been running for an hour, there are many cuts all along my hand and I have broken one of my heels. I can't hear anything except my heart pounding in my ear. So I decreased my pace to calm my heart and to see if we are being followed anymore. I signaled for everyone to stop. " I don't think we are being followed anymore," I said. " I guess you are right," Jim said. There was a long cut across his chest and his shirt was soaked " Oh my God! Is that blood? Are you hurt?" I asked. "Nah, it's just a scratch, it's not even...." But his sentence was drowned by a gunshot ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What I wouldn't have given for all of this to be a terrible nightmare. but, no one can change the fact that it's my life now.

A Pureblood slave by waand3rluust

Cold and numb, that's the only thing I've felt for the past 3 months. There's around 10 other humans here excluding myself and new ones come everyday. No one knows exactly where we are, all we know is that our worst nightmares are about to come true. ** I was once a carefree and extroverted girl that would just go with the flow and live in the moment. That was until the day they came out of existence and started to up rule the world. Now they control everything, most importantly the human race. Some call them monsters, some call them the demons sending, but they are the purebloods, the first vampires to be created. They're the ones that capture us and sell us off as their slaves. They are soulless creatures that couldn't give a damn about anyone but themselves and their every need. ** This is my story about how I, Miabella Nicole Arksin, became a slave to the most powerful pureblood, Ronan Pierre. *This is the first story I've written so sorry if there's a couple mistakes here and there I'll try my best to fix them and thanks for reading :-)*

Evolution by andshesmiles

There are a lot of things you don't really think about until they happen to you. Take rape, for instance. I always thought, "That won't happen to me. I have a boyfriend. I trust him. He would never take advantage of me like that..." I couldn't have been more wrong. Love in this day and age is often confused for manipulation and abuse. The warning signs are here. The things we say will tell us everything that is wrong. You are worth more than what you think you are. It's not your fault. If they tell you otherwise, get out. Burn the bridge. Always remember someone is waiting for you to walk into their life. Someone needs you. Someone loves you. Getting away from all of the wrong people and finding the right ones could save you. I can promise you right now that it saved me. These are the journal entries and selected poems from my first experience of love that left a unpleasant taste in my mouth- quite literally. I am putting this out for the whole world to see because I hope everyone will learn from my experience. People can see. We have no excuses to continue living our lives in ignorance. ...WARNING... HARMFUL THEMES INCLUDING MENTION OF SUICIDE, SELF HARM, AND RAPE. THIS HAS EXPLICIT CONTENT. RECOVERY AND AWARENESS IS THE PURPOSE OF SHARING. DO NOT READ IF THESE THEMES ARE OFFENSIVE OR HARMFUL TO YOU.

Shimmer Island by MelinaDouglas21

Do you ever doubt yourself? Ever get the feeling you're never good enough? For me, that's my life. That's how I feel. Every. Single. Day. So let's complicate it a little more shall we? Let's toss in a kidnapping, stir in being stranded on an island with a bunch of magical creatures, and season it with an amulet that gives you a second life. A war is coming, one that has been brewing for centuries and guess who they think the main ingredient to put an end to all of it is: me, Piper Hayes. Are they out of their minds?! I guess there's only one way to find out!

My Last Breath (Book one of The Portal Series) by Chinesechickens123

BOOK ONE: Having enough courage to run through the woods and away from the people who convinced me they were saving me was not how I believed I'd spend my day. Yet, there I went escaping from the only place I knew existed in the world. Being held captive was too much for me, especially when these people wouldn't tell me who they were or even who I was. The first moment in my life I recall very clearly. I awoke in a dark room, with recollection of everything that happened in the world except for one thing. I had no memory of myself existing, I didn't know where I was or why these men kept me from leaving. Days after I first woke I asked plenty of questions, and yet none of them were answered. The only thing I learned was that I was not allowed outside because the woods heald the most powerful magic on the planet, the most dangerous magic. It was more than just bad men and curiosity about the forest that got me to leave, it was a pull towards something; towards magic. Once I was in the forest turning back was never an option, so I put it in my head that I'd keep walking until I found a civilization or a nice paved road that would lead to safety. But that never happened because the forest has a force living through it. Believing that the forest held something strange was the easy part but experiencing it myself was something totally different. I didn't expect anything normal but I didn't expect to be completly engulfed into the forest. I was led by an unknown presence that made me truly believe it was a living being, and in fact it is. I was innocent then, but now I know that anything can be hidden under a small platform in the woods with a secret bigger than the world itself. I was given life that day, until it all ended months later; the day I took my last breath.

Not Like Us by Black_Lefah

[ Yeah, Sofia was my first love, but she broke my heart into pieces] I had this friend online called Pikfred Water. How we got to know each other was like a magic, ' boom!' we are friends now. Pikfred never wanted to tell me his name, and I didn't know why he was doing that, all these days I met him online. But I think we are friends now, so why don't you tell me your name or show me your personality Pikfred?. ' Hmmm' I try my possible best for him to talk to me, but he keeps refusing my request anytime I ask him. Pikfred and I were friends but nothing I know about him. ' Hmm', 'I can't wait to see Pikfred'...

The Last Avian Soldier (The Nine Realms Universe) by ren_writes_words

We're all pawns in this game played by those on top. From the moment we can process what they're telling us, we're led to believe that we must kneel before superiority. Bow our heads to the kings and queens, the powerful men and women who sit high on their thrones. To them, we are nothing but tools, obstacles, and threats. For this life is nothing but a constant battle between immortals. The individuals on the pedestals, and the ones in the dirt. So, how may we get out? How much blood will be spilled, tears shed, final breaths taken, before this is all over? People are lost in the game. They don't come back. Sons and daughters, parents, siblings... all slaughtered in this power play. Through all of this I have lost. I walk upon the shattered past left in my wake. I wish for death to finally arrive, but it never does. There's a crown of death atop my head and there's nothing I can do to change it. We were ready to make a difference. When death came to our doorstep we refused to let it take us, not without a fight, but it was a futile attempt. No one can stand in the way of a king starved for the power of it all. Tainted by ambition and violence. And with that, two thousand soldiers drew their swords for a war they would not win.

The place of nightmares that very few know of, the place of cruel and inhumane tests conducted on the innocent.

These storms are known to be dangerous for a plethora of reasons throughout the world. The Facility and all of it's holding cells & security stations deactivated and disabled due to the storm. Releasing everything without supervision. Hence, this phenomenon being called "Destabilization". Now, Monsters and deviants alike set free to roam. Some take matters into their own hands to escape.

Hope you enjoy reading, give me any and all feedback The story will randomly transition between reader POV and (Y/N) POV at times. It's subtle, so pay attention. [Sometimes scenes will say "We did (something) and other times [You did (something). It's all the same. Just different POVs Melee killing is violent and gory on purpose.

Creature (Minecraft YouTuber AU) by enchantedreadshere

As the trees and its land slowly burn down by he deadly purple acid, a man that was watching from afar shivered at this sight. This has been going on for ages, and the creature hasn't been stopped. If they didn't stop the thing on time, everything they knew, everything they have ever known. Every building ever created, every world that has been generated, would be gone. The man looked towards his companion, or was he, his companion? His friend has been acting a bit strange, acting anything but not himself. The man took a deep breath and sighed. He looked towards the man with a stern face, gripping onto his iron sword. "Are you sure, you aren't, It?" His friend looked back at him, and chuckled coldly in response. "You know me, buddy, I wouldn't let It get to me." On the next day, the man's friend was gone. So was the other. *Narrating will get better the more you read* *COMPLETE* (YouTubers au, based on the actual ******** world. More and more YouTubers will appear, some will get mentioned, some will appear once, and some will not, and if you're a youtuber reading this, please don't read this cause uhhh, it's not good. There will be no cursing in this! So don't expect any curses. Please do not take this seriously. Only used to entertain fans.) Story cover by my very good friend in real life @zerinieee

Static by hattielynn

{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16
