La guerra di trincea logora l'esercito anglo-francese, che combatte quello tedesco ormai da alcuni mesi, ma la sera della Vigilia di Natale nessuno esploderà un colpo. Tratto da uno dei capitoli più bui dell'umanità, una piccola luce, nel bel mezzo dell'orrore, sarà un urlo di libertà e sgomento alla guerra.
"Cercare e saper riconoscere chi e cosa, in mezzo all'inferno, non è inferno, e farlo durare, e dargli spazio."

The Two Roses - Book 1
England, 1450. King Henry VI has been on the throne for almost thirty years, and has failed to live up to the legacy of his father, Henry V, the victor of Agincourt. His early reign was dominated by two uncles, the Duke of Gloucester and Bishop of Winchester, who were constantly working to overrule each other. Against Gloucester's wishes, a peace was brokered with France in 1445, and King Henry was wedded to the French King's niece, Margaret. Gloucester and Winchester are now dead, replaced as chief minister by the allied Dukes of Suffolk and Somerset. The English province of Normandy has fallen to the French and Suffolk, has taken the blame. With the threat of unrest in the kingdom, Suffolk is sent into exile on the continent. But the common people are determined not to be cheated out of justice... Updates will come, but may be slow going. This book is the first in a planned three-part series about the Wars of the Roses, what I'm provisionally calling 'York and Lancaster'. To be perfectly honest, I wrote this mainly for myself, so if you do end up reading and enjoying it, let me know. I have tried to keep the narrative as neutral as possible. If multiple characters have the same name, then the one who appeared second is likely the son of the former (e.g. after Thomas Courtenay, 5th Earl of Devon, died in 1458, his son, also called Thomas, became 6th Earl of Devon). Characters with titles will be referred to by their title (e.g. 'Henry Holland, Duke of Exeter' will be referred to as 'Exeter'.

Fated To Be
If God is not going to punish the sinner then I WILL. People sometimes say to you, "Don't bother with them, their karma will come back to them someday". That is why sometimes people break themself in order to wait for that moment. But sometimes that moment never comes and you yourself are the one rotting away in this miserable life, so why wait when you could put your hands in it? "You are wrong. Whether I am here or not, your punishment will always come to you, I just.. make it much sooner for you. As I didn't have time to wait any longer", he said with a dark gloomy eyes that had lost their lights. When Shen Wei ran away at the age of 15 years old, he never thought that he would come back again, trying to untie the knot that had been lingering in his heart for years, he came back once again trying to understand some events, but to be honest, for him, it is just an excuse, he just wants to see the lights once again, to be able to proudly says "Mom, I have made it, the sinner have already been punished and you have nothing to worry about anymore". Even if it means to drag others down to hell with him. Shen Wei, "Because since the beginning, we have not been given a choice, we have been entangled in this trap, if we don't struggle to get away, you and I will surely lose. And I.. am not the type of person who will easily let other people bully me" Notes: First time making my own character, I think it will be hard for me to clearly describe how the character would be, but I will try my best. I must say first that the timeline is around the early 20th century.. probably, it is fictional, so there must be things that are different compared to the history. Thank you for understanding and reading my work.
We Are North America (The Great North American War)
Confedrancy won, America's dead. The United States of America is now the United Confederate States of America. The whole world wants the good ole U.S.A back. France, Spain, and England miss their son, their other former colonies miss their brother. South America want their cousin back. America's old friends want their friend back. So many countries regret not helping America out. The states, provinces, territories, and cities of North America miss their brother. But what about Canada, Maria, and, Diego? Oh them? Yeah they miss their brother, they cried for days, they barely talk to the rest of the world minus their cousins now, they all looked sadder now. But you know what? North America was supposed to be the four of them. Not the three of them and Confedrancy. They were gonna get their brother back, they were gonna do it. Even if it led them to war. Disclaimer: I don't own Hetalia or it's cannon characters.Complete

GATE: Thus the United States of Canada Fought There!
(A/N: Everyone thank Wattpad Sokal7 for helping me bring back this story. It took a very long time, but I've managed to bring it back. I made some changes but almost all of it is the same.) ========== Summary: What if during the 'War for Independence', instead of just 13 colonies choosing to secede from the British Empire, it was ALL the colonies of British North America that chose to fight for their independence. After winning their independence, the colonies would band together and unite to form the United States of Canada. Throughout its history, the USC has fought for its own existence in multiple wars and their actions have changed the course of human history. Despite all the faults and setbacks, the nation was forced to endure, the USC stands as one of the major superpowers in the world. However, everything changes when a GATE like structure appears and out came a roman like army. After eliminating the invaders and going to a world of fantasy, the USC soon encounter another GATE structure and are shocked to learn that it leads to a Parallel Earth, one with a radically different history. After encountering the JSDF, the people of the parallel Earth are soon in for a shock when they meet their alternate counterparts, especially the Parallel Americans. The course of human history for both the Alternate and Parallel Earth's will change forever, one that could either lead to peace... or total war. ========== Pairing: OC x Harem
