***This takes place before the west-coast Internal Wars and the Killjoys' formation. (Read "So Long and Good Night if you don't understand.)***
Located in Australia, there was an organization known as Dead Pegasus,who were fighting against Better Living Industries (BL/ind) and trying to prevent their rise to power. Demolition was one of DP's men. He always had feelings for a fellow soldier named Emily; however, in an unsuccessful mission, she was killed on the battlefront. The brokenhearted Demolition, being the only survivor of the battle, was captured by BL/ind. Another failed mission led by Demolition's sister, Helena, resulted in her becoming a captive of BL/ind. If Demolition wants his sister alive, he would have to serve under BL/ind and kill his former fellow soldiers. He, to save his sister's life, willingly complies...

"I always thought my life would be normal; I mean, normal for a girl who was bound to take on a mutli-million dollar company. But, I never would've expected to be half-demon!!!" In modern day England, C.L., or Catherine Lee, Phantomhive lived a normal life as an orphan, and sole-heir to the Funtom Corporation, while residing in the Phantomhive Manor for the past 17 years. Her only family left to care for her is her aunt, Rose Angelina Phantomhive, and her devoted butler, Sebastian Michaelis, not to mention her dysfunctional yet loyal house servants. Haunted with the past she can't remember, C.L.'s only connection to her deceased parents, Ciel and Elizabeth Phantomhive, is only through the stories she's heard about their murders and her kidnapping when she was only an infant. However, her life was far from normal. Things she belived weren't so... black and white. She, ultimately, comes to find out she's much different than everyone else around her. She's a Lost Child, half demon and half angel. Now, she, along with the help of Sebastian, must figure out how she can stay alive in her hell-bent world, control her new-found powers, and protect the ones she loves as enemies from her father's past come to torment and potentially kill C.L.. But... can't she make it out in one-piece or will this new world tear her entire life apart? _ _ _ _ _ _ Disclaimer: I 'DO NOT' own the anime nor manga "Black Butler"; the show and manga belongs to its respected owners.

Katrina Mars has always had a special connection with her older sister, Keeley, who graduated the year Katrina was in eighth grade. That connection was the same kind of love for pop punk/alternative rock music and their desire to be happy helping one another and others. The two had always been best friends as sisters, and they had always been there for each other. Keeley was even the only friend Katrina ever had, even after she went off to college. Ever since Keeley left for college (which is eight hours away from Katrina's home), Katrina has felt lost, confused, lonely, and sad, not knowing what to do at all with no one to turn to. About five months after Keeley left, at a doctor's visit, Katrina discovers that she has been diagnosed with depression. Although this disappoints her, it is not surprising... For the next couple of years, her parents have become worse and worse towards her, mentally abusing her because of the music she likes, the way she dresses, and her normal personality. This worsens her depression, and being ignored and lonely doesn't help. This is all until she meets Sam Browman, a kid in school who is a lot like her: dresses "emo," listens to "emo" bands, sings and plays a lot of instruments, and goes through troubles at home. Who knows what may happen to these kids who connect through both having troubles at home? This story is set in the year 2011, when My Chemical Romance was together (before the breakup and reunion). WARNING: This story contains mentions and depictions of self-harm, abuse, violence, and bullying. If you are sensitive to these topics, I would not recommend this story to you.

Y/n has a secret. Actually, she has a few secrets. Y/n used to be involved with the BDSM community for several years with her fiancee, until her new job at the BAU slowly forced her to become more and more separated from her double life. One fateful night, it all changes. Y/n's life is now in shambles, and she has to navigate through her feelings alone. Y/n tries to throw herself into her work, finally allowing herself to become close with her team; but there's one person she can't connect with - her unit chief, Emily Prentiss. Y/n admires her from a distance, concealing her feelings for her unit chief. It works for a few months, but secrets are bound to be exposed, especially when you work with the world's top profilers. One case that hits way too close to home for Y/n proves just that. ... My phone dings as I sit back. I grab it, seeing a text from Emily. I gape openly at her text. "Fucking hell," I breathe. "What? What is it?" Garcia questions me in concern. I swallow harshly. "Emily texted me," I say, "It's a list of rules for tonight." "What do they say?" Garcia asks excitedly. I bite my lip as I read her text out loud. I take a breath, looking at Penelope. She shrugs at you through the mirror. "How are you doing?" She checks. I shake my head. "As good as I can be, given my role-play with the Chief just began," I groan, "I am going to regret this." ... TRIGGERS angst smut BDSM swearing degradation potential lack of aftercare - death/unaliving guns and other unaliving instruments blood mentions of rape and torture (for the cases obvs) kidnapping (for the cases, again, obvs) - anxiety/panic attacks depression throwing up (mostly from being drunk fun fact, Y/n likes to party) ---- *obvs I don't own any of the CM cast. I'm not following a particular plot from the show, and I make up my own cases for the team to work on. It's more fun for me and helps the story line --- #1: jj - 9/6/24 #1: jenniferjareau - 9/6/24 #1: prentiss - 9/6/24

"Her troubled eyes held fire. The kind of fire that was capable of burning me to ash." ***** I grabbed her chin with my free hand, making her look at me. "I hate that I don't know you. I hate not being a part of your life, like I was before." I leaned a little closer, as her intoxicating scent filled my lungs. "Trust me, I can't hate you, no matter how hard I tried." "So you have... " It came out as more of a question than a statement from her as she looked at me with her big blue eyes. "What?" I frowned, dropping my hand from her chin and grabbing her hand, instead. "You have tried hating me then?" She asked, tilting her head to the side. This time it sounded more like a statement than a question. "I have." I sighed, dropping my head in shame. "And it made me lose the most important person in my life." ***** One night. What harm can one night do? It can change lives. Turn best friends into enemies. Turn someone's life upside down. Emily Waters and Ryder Green, were inseparable, joint to the hip, always had each others back and loved each other behind the best friend facade. But one night changed it all. He thinks he has changed for worse but what he doesn't know is that Emily has changed for the worst. Three years later, what if the girl is back, with baggage that she doesn't think anyone could handle? What will happen when they meet? Will the sparks ignite again?
