Run. Run and don't stop. Don't look back, not even for a second. That was all she knew. Not why, or where she had to go-just that she had to escape. And so, that's exactly what she did.
Maisie Crawford doesn't know where she's going, or why. Just that she must run. Her mind is a blank canvas after suffering a blow to the head, leaving all the traces of her past gone.
The world is a dangerous place to wonder around alone in, in the year 2025, and a young, vulnerable girl may not be any match for what she could discover in these treacherous times, or the people she may meet along the way

What They Didn't Bury ✔️
"You know it's against the law to lie to a police officer, right, Miss Mills?" Silence hung like a thick smoke as Lane's tongue stuck to the roof of her mouth. Officer Casey's tone hadn't changed, but something in his gaze had. "I don't know what you want me to say, I'm sorry." Lane's voice was close to a whisper. They passed a gas station she didn't recognize. The inside was dark, like it had been closed for a long time. Lane's chest tightened. Something felt very wrong. "Where are we going?" She asked finally, voice tighter than she meant it to be. That earned her a sharp and fleeting glance, the corner of his mouth turning up like he was in on a joke she wasn't. "Don't worry. I'll get you where you need to go." Lane didn't answer. Because she no longer believed him. ~ All Lane is trying to do is survive in a world that's already failed her. After a childhood spent bouncing between homes, a steady job, a place to lay her head, and a beater to take her from Point A to Point B were the small things she'd fought for. Lane was trying -- she really was. Her life was finally hers, and she intended to keep it that way. But of course, as the saying goes, "Men plan, God laughs." All it took was a glance. Lane froze. And then she ran. It wasn't supposed to be her problem. But the moment those eyes caught hers, she was thrust into a world she'd always tried to avoid. And she'll have to do more than stay quiet to make it out alive. ________________________________________ Completed ✔️ _________________________________________ PREVIOUSLY 'THE PRICE OF SILENCE' Title changed 06/09/2026 Highest Rankings: #1 - Resilience {08/06/2026} #1 - Witness {08/22/2026}Complete

The passenger window rolls down, and I spot the most unexpected person seated behind the wheel. "Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?"

The Painting
"It took me five seconds to fall. The impact on my chest jarring my body but not my mind. I suppose this is the point where your life is supposed to flash before your eyes as time itself freezes - and it did in a way.

It was a feeling, something that started in my chest and spread to my fingertips, one so unique to me that it encapsulated each significant event into one single second." For as long as May can remember one mystery has haunted her world. A dirty window before her, the grim obstructing her vision, she has lived with a loss she can't identify - that is until one rainy night. Gradually the spots of dirt May scratched at for so long wipe away with the touch of a finger. But when she looks in will she like what she sees - or will curiosity kill the cat?Complete
