North Hemmingwood, born on December 25, 1999. Yes, Christmas. She was an only child in the Hemmingwood family, her father and mother named William and Rosèlita Hemmingwood. North was known violent, a reason why nobody would want to be her friend. She bit her classmate's arm until it bled, she punched a younger boy and he lost 2 teeth, and she also head butted a kid's forehead and he... uh passed out. She was homeschooled, far away from the children. Although she was born on Christmas, she was anything but gentle, her parents wanted her to follow the ways of Jesus Christ.
Upon discovering the pocket watch she had been given on her 18th birthday by her father. She made a terrible mistake to lead things into an extreme confusing mess. A massacre that was not expected at all. Losing her only parents, she met Benny. The Clockmaster's messenger, he was a charming young fellow, he will be the one to guide her for the mission she was sent to do by none other than the Clockmaster. He was the creator of the pocket watch and since she had attained it, she will be his apprentice until he dies, so then can she claim his place.
But North was just a naive girl, and she was far from ready of being the next Clockmaster. She doesn't know anything about clocks at all, but then she was the chosen one. Why would the Clockmaster choose such an unpredictable girl? What will her relationship be with Benny? And especially, how will she do her mission? What is her mission? I can't tell you that.
But one thing for sure, it's gonna be one hell of a ride. The world is one tick away.

You create fun memories, find the love of your life, get married, start a family, grow old, and eventually, you breathe your last. That's what life was supposed to be like for me. But instead, my life turned out to be the opposite of normal. And so it was for Chiara, Blake, Jake, Rowan, Nova, and Dijon. To tell our story, we need to go all the way back to the beginning. Before we were even born. It all started 30 years ago. April 5, 2003. a class got into an accident and when the survivors woke up, they realized something was wrong. they got powers , they got taken by scientist who started calling them the hollows. It took almost a month before they were rescued by Mr. Knight, they got taken to a secret place where they could live peacefully. that's a lie, one of the students wanted revenge and not stay hidden, so the group seperated. Every year another person got powers, and so, the search continued. But there was always one question on mr. Knight mind: Why 12 children the first time, and only one per year after that? And one thing was for sure: whenever someone gained powers, they had to give something up in return. It was never a choice. It was just the way it was. So, now that I've explained a bit about how this all started, let's fast forward to the present. It's now 2033. Mr. Knight has found 19 children, and Mr. Douglas, the leader of the other group, has found 10. That means... the 30th child is out there somewhere. Who will it be?

Timebomb Tattoo
Before I even give a description I need to say one thing: This story is something I wrote to give all my friends as a Christmas present, but I didn't do what most people would. What I did was I wrote each friend a different ending. There are 21 different endings to this one story. The first-I think-ten parts-the ones that are pretty much titled by seemingly random number-are the same in all of the versions of the story. After that I just have the extra endings. I know--it's confusing. Deyanira was born with a tattoo all the way up her right arm that clearly showed "140256:00:00." Little did she know that this "tattoo" was a countdown to the end of the world-the end that she would cause. The marking changed each second as the bomb that was Deyanira ticked just a second closer to destruction. On Deyanira's fifteenth birthday, she meets the ghost of Zaviera, the timebomb of planet Abiit, who has come to warn her that the bomb will go off when she turns exactly sixteen years old. Deyanira and her friends Lieta, Aubrey and Andy now have only one year to save the world.Complete
