"The world is predictable," my father once said. "And the beasts that live among it make it so." But were they the beasts, or was it us this entire time?

Crees isn't like the other Tendrils of his society. And that is because of one simple fact: he is still alive. After years of enduring anguish from all sides of every story, he still manages to step out into the ever-hidden sunlight and make relative peace with the world.

Every year for the past seven that he has spent in a canyon so deep the surface is practically a myth, he has found himself facing death but never leaving with Him. And so that cursed tradition continues.

But things are changing. The war high above between their two captivators is intensifying, and the Tendrils know they have little time left. Crees wants nothing more than to enjoy it with those rare few who call him family, call him friend, but his curse is making that difficult. Especially when, this time around, it leaves him under the microscope of the two warring alien tribes.All Rights Reserved

Fake Tales by NotOriginal1997

"I don't know what kind of girl you think I am Greg" I mumbled. I was not the kind of girl who slept with guys on a whim. I wanted him, but not enough to abandon all reason. He took a step toward me, ignored my narrowed eyes and wrapped his arms around me. I wriggled and tried to pull away, but he only held me tighter. His face was impossibly close to me, expression serene to my fury. I could feel him already, pressing into my stomach. Fear shot through me, but the anticipation was equal. "I know exactly what kind of girl you are Maddy... that's the problem" He said simply. His lips crashed into mine, tasting every inch of me. I wanted more than anything to pull away, leave and never mention this again.... but I couldn't do it. The feel of him naked, warm and muscular against me rendered me speechless. I couldn't explain it, but our bodies seemed to fit together somehow and the anger I'd felt just a minute ago. That firey anger at him invading my privacy was gradually merging with the previous lust from last night. Now all I felt was an all consuming need for him to touch me. ....................................................................... Maddy Reynolds' life is a mess. Her best friend's brother Greg has just died and her two best friends Mel and Dom aren't speaking to each other. She has no one to talk to about her confusing feelings towards Greg or why Mel is so distant. Then at the funeral, she becomes friends with Tom Winter by pure chance and he seems to be the only one who understands her. And yet.... even he is keeping secrets from her. The sort of secrets that have the power to change everything. Maddy now has to decide to trust him or find out the truth on her own. Things would have been a whole lot simpler if she'd chosen the latter.

The Story of Midnight by Silverwynd

"Who's out there?" One of the men yelled. Of course only silence met them. I remained quiet and waited for the group to start moving again. "Maybe it was just an animal." Someone whispered. The person, who I assumed was the captain of the small squad, signaled for them to walk again. They clearly showed fear as they kept going; brandishing their weapons to guard themselves with. "Two are holding lanterns. I'll tell you when you're too close to them." I heard my friend whisper in my ear. I followed the men as I picked up another branch and waited for the right time to break it. They continued to walk through the forest, turning their heads in every direction as if an animal might lunge at them and rip their throats out. I guess in a way I was going to do that. "Go back a few feet." My friend whispered. I carefully distanced myself from the group and waited. "Where is she?" I quickly snapped the stick as soon as he finished asking the question. They stopped and two soldiers raised their lanterns to shine its light in the darkness. I quickly hid behind a tree before both of them turned where I was. A low frustrated growl came from one of the men, "The girl's playing with us. She's out here following our every move." How paranoia can cloud the mind. At nine years old, Silver decided to leave her village for the forest. Since then, she's been hunted; everyday is a fight for her life, every breath she takes could be her last, but she's determined to stay alive. Her life isn't the kind anyone would want to live but she's managed to survive this long so, what's a few more years?

The Unordinary by elephant576

Six high school students looks like anyone else acts like anyone else but are capable of things no one else is. They learnt from a young age no one that means NO ONE can know about their powers even their parents and other siblings. It brings out the true friends and those who just want to use you. In the end, what do you do when your closest friend betrays you? This is the story as they try to keep their biggest darkest secret of what they are capable of and as they discover they're not the only ones like them... I am not very good at trigger warnings before individual chapters but there is mention of blood, cold abuse and parents divorcing. (But read at your own risk in case I mention something else. I am working on rewriting this story and when I do there will be the trigger warnings in the correct places.) (small teaser.) No one sees me. I am a ghost. I brush against the wooden fence. No one will believe it was me who disappeared into a fence and appeared on the other side of school. I stare at my brother. He made eye contact with me, confirming my suspicions. We both saw it. Whoever that was is like us. "Did you just see that?" I ask "You're that person my brother and I saw," He says. Oh no... Why then? "Wait! You're-" Completed just editing. (Don't be too harsh please)

Terra Preta by ramose_xiv

It's part of a massive experiment by an alien race called the Korathians, who've been running this test for millennia, just to see how far life can evolve. And now, Earth is their latest lab. As the virus transforms creatures into monsters, humanity struggles to survive. People aren't just battling these new beasts-they're also fighting to keep hold of what makes them human. The lines between who's human and who's not blur, and everyone is caught in a game they never asked to play.

Guardians: My Best Friend (Book 1) by Azazazz099

I sat down next to her and cried on her. "Don't leave," was all I managed when I noticed she wasn't breathing. I didn't want to believe she just died. But she wasn't making any sounds.

The Winchesters by comicmoon19

"Let's just get out of here and we'll figure something out" as soon as Sam said that we were transferred to the throne room where Crowley was. "Leaving so soon?" He asked. Rowena was standing beside him and a bunch of demons on each side of the room. "Well this is a nice change of scenery" i said. "It's hell" said Sam. "I was being sarcastic" I whispered to him. "You think you have a choice,and that's sweet and all,but it's time you take the knife and do what you were destined to do" said Crowley and offered me the knife that was on his hand. I started walking towards him when someone grabbed my arm. I turned and saw Dean with pleading eyes and said "Please,you don't have to do this". "As a matter of fact she does" said Crowley. I pulled my arm from Dean's grip and walked towards Crowley taking the knife on my hand. Rowena handed me a large rusty bowl and i placed it on the floor. "I'm way too sober for this" I mumbled to myself. "Why are you glaring at me?" asked Crowley and i turned to see who he was referring to. "I'm hoping you'll spontaneously combust" answered Sam. "I'm going to need chicken blood, salt, five candles and a bottle of vodka" said Crowley to a random demon. "Vodka? For the spell?" asked Rowena confused. "No,that's for me. It's just to make me feel better about ripping a whole in the universe" i answered ironically looking at her. Credits for the cover pic of my book go to @gomezmanip on instagram. Please follow her.

Born In Hell (Book II) by AnotherBurntFlame

Kids are such a joy aren't they. You know 2 grandkids of Lucifer with 2 more on the way, 2 hardheaded smartasses that came from king dumbass himself, 1 of death, 2 of war and 2 of the enemy. Joyous right? Yeah, so let's have a little reunion. It's been years since they've all been in one place. Might as well get the band back together. I know you'll miss me narrating the whole shindig, but I have to give the kids a chance, because shit is about to hit the fan. I'm not talking about the soft shit, I'm talking the messy kind, that is out of control. The kind that leaves you with love, hate and confusion. That's all I can say, you'll have to find out for yourself to see what happens. Oh did I forget to mention they have no idea of the power they hold? -------------------------- "You told her?!" I flinched at mom's tone. "Kali- wow," Belle breathed when she turned to see her sister gone. "Kali told her, not me." Ma's hands were shaking at her sides. I've never actually seen her get mad to that point before. Now she looked like she wanted to fight, but she always tells me not to. I really want to see how this plays out since she's war and all. "Should I tell Uri, or Nasima, or should I feed the twins to fire and let the rest find them?" Belle's eyes literally turned a shade darker in green. "You wouldn't like it, so why didn't you stop Kali?"

The Darkness in the Light by djscloud

For over a hundred years, humanity has lived in fear of the monsters that roam the streets, lurking in the drains below. Women and their daughters hide, protected in their homes, while men take their sons through the world, teaching them the responsibilities of having a family to feed and dangers to avoid. No one leaves the home unless it's essential, and most of the world prefers it that way. Until one girl spends her days perched on her window seat, looking down at the world below and dreaming of a different life. Her eyes are always drawn to the dark, ominous drains in the street, the ones that often blink open to swallow and person whole. One day, that person is her little brother, snatched right in front of her from their arms of their father and gone forever. When a person is snatched, they never return, and life goes on without them. But she can't accept that. Breaking all the rules, all the things she's ever known, she braves the world outside her little townhouse and goes on a mission into the darkness to find her brother. Only, it's soon her that becomes the one lost to the drains. To survive she must rediscover her world, and in the process, rediscover herself. She will be reunited with old friends, gain new ones, find out deeper secrets about her past than she ever could have imagined, and learn that the world is even more corrupt than she always thought. *** This story contains sexist ideology, mention of cheating, some gruesome scenes, and a whole lot of monsters and darkness. It isn't overly mature... there isn't much explicit language or sexual scenes, but there is a bit of violence, so just keep that in mind... and despite all that negativity, ENJOY!
