It was dark and dry. At the bottom of a pit, you would expect it to be damp, but this place was anything but. This place was where the books went. All the books. When the Surface was done with them, they threw everything down here and charged us with keeping them. This is the Cave of the Forgotten Books and we are their Keepers.
Yeah, right. As if. We might as well be called the Graveyard of Books. We have no cool name. I wish we did. On the Surface we get sorted, blah, blah, blah. The ones who don't fit up there get sent down here. Everyone knows we're here. From time to time, people will come down, asking for a book as if we know where it is. This place is a junkyard of books. They pile up all around us. Lining the walls and creating labyrinths. Pull one book out the wrong way and you'll find yourself in an avalanche of dusty books.

So first things first I love being vague so if you don't understand what I'm talking about or something it will probably be explained later so stay with me. Secondly first chapter is complete shite, I would change it but I'm lazy and it sets up my characters so I'm not just gonna delete it. So read the first chapter for the plot and please continue to the second if you still don't like my writing then you can leave, that's all I'm asking. So that's all I got to say so I'm gonna get on with it. Also I swear a fuck ton so if you don't like swearing get out.Complete
Lagoon - Book 1 of Peter Pan x OC
Pan let the silence hang in the tent between them, you could have cut the tension with a butter knife. "You think I've enchanted you into falling for me? Oh Pan, if you're attracted to me, you've done that all by yourself.". Those were the only words Pan needed to send him crashing over the edge of sanity. He grabbed her hand to steady it on his chest. He was holding her so tightly that Peter was sure Aurora could feel his erratic heart beat. Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes wide with wonder. "Aurora?" He murmured onto her reddened cheek. "Yes?" "Call me Peter." [Just some explaining to do, this is an OUAT Fic of sorts, as it uses its characters, but it doesn't use any of its plot. I own Aurora's story line, and the characters of some lost boys, mermaids and pirates. During this time, Killian was working for Pan, but betrayed him to try and leave Neverland. After doing so, without his permission, he has come back to retrieve something. Pan is angry he has returned and wants revenge.] Disclaimer! I do not own any of the Once Upon A Time's characters or original stories, only the plot of this fanfic. Aurora's character, along with some of the lost boys, mermaids and pirate's characters belong to me. Warnings: Sexual content included Cursing Violence ( quite mild ) Happy reading! :)Complete

The Captive (First Book in the Neverland Bound Series)
"Davis, take her to the cage." Pan then turns and strides away. "Yes, sir," Davis replies while smirking at me. Despite my protests, he roughly grabs my arm and hauls me away from the group of boys and into the surrounding forest. I wait until I'm sure we are out of earshot before I make my move. I stamp on his foot hard. He winces and loosens his grip just enough for me to break free. I then kick him in his midsection causing him to lose his balance and snatch his spear away. I use the blade to slice the ropes binding my wrists and before Davis has time to call for help, I knock him out with one swing of the weapon. His unconscious form slumps to the ground and lays motionless at my feet. I grimace. He's going to have a huge lump on his head when he comes around. "Sorry Davis," I whisper and I take off into the woods. Peter Pan brought me to Neverland for a reason, but he's forgotten one very important detail. I've been here before.Complete
