Cassie is a sixteen year old girl that is just trying to live a normal life. You might think she's just another average teenager until you find out who her great-grandfather is, and what kind of world she lives in. In the aftermath of World War Three, the entire world is in ruins. There is one underground village which houses the leader of the resistance trying to overthrow the now controlling government. The America that you know that is the land of the free and the home of the brave is no more. Now everything anyone says or does is controlled by the government and its secret council of leaders. When Cassie's world is turned upside down by the loss of her father, how far will she go to make sure it never happens again?

25 parts Ongoing
Kira's family had fallen apart when she was just a child, and she'd grown up with a deep sense of loneliness and despair. She had always felt like a mere whisper in the symphony of life. With each passing day, she could see her reflection in the mirror, the dullness in her eyes reflecting a life without much excitement or promise. The only constant in her life was her beloved cat, Elias. Elias was a black Jaguar who always seemed to understand Kira's deepest thoughts and emotions. It was a simple and mundane life, but Kira cherished it because it was all she had. She often wondered if there was more to her existence, but it seemed like wishful thinking. As she arrived to school for her last year of high school, transfered students of high class were being welcomed. Kira was assigned to guild them around and then encountered an injured man on the way back from school and decided to help him out. what happened yesterday felt like I dream to her so she put it all out of her mind. One evening, Kira's newly found friends arranged to meet up at an arcade near by when, a peculiar sensation enveloped her. The world around her began to ripple and twist, as if reality itself was coming undone. In an instant, she found herself in a place that defied all logic. Strange creatures and vivid landscapes surrounded her, and she realized that she had been transported to a different dimension. Before her stood a tall man with pink glasses which she found a little odd, this person also possessed extraordinary abilities. He explained that Kira had been chosen to receive the power of reality warping. Kira was overwhelmed by the enormity of the responsibility, but she felt a glimmer of hope that her life might finally have meaning. .. or so she thought. Until Kira, forever questioned the thin line that separated good and evil, hero and villain.

Ariella's biggest desire in life has always been such a simple one. She wants to be 'normal.' Unfortunately, that one simple wish has never been within her grasp. Coming from a long line of witches is bad enough, but she's even more different than the rest of her family. The fact that no one will give her any answers to why she's so different doesn't help matters. Her entire existence is shrouded in secrets that everyone around her refuses to reveal. After a family tragedy, she moves to a new town, and she gets her first chance to at least pretend to be 'normal.' For the first time, she's allowed to leave the house and go to an actual school. She makes friends, and she develops her first crush, that's quickly followed by her second. She's finally living the normal teenage life she'd dreamed of, but it doesn't last. Everything she believed about herself and the world around her is changed in an instant. Family secrets come to light one after another, turning her entire world upside down in the process. She quickly realizes that sometimes ignorance really is bliss, and maybe she didn't really want to know the answers to the questions she'd always asked, especially when one of these truths causes people close to her to turn their backs on her without hesitation. Before she can even recover from the shock, she's thrust into a war that she hadn't even known existed. Loyalties will be tested. She'll have to choose sides between all of the people she's come to care about. Will she stand with her family, her new friends, or the two boys who both hold a piece of her heart? One thing is for sure. She'll have to let go of her dream of 'normal.'

The Lost and the Hidden

17 parts Ongoing

A dystopian story in which people have unnatural powers Lorelai Walters can't remember much of her past. She's always lived on the streets, she never knew home. Then one day, some soldiers turn up in a shopping center where she's staying for the night. They take her to a place where more teenagers live. It's nothing like a home. There, they have to train, though nobody knows what for. When Lorelai decides not to do what she's being told and take things in her own hands, she doesn't know what awaits her. As she tries to escape the people trying to use her-and many others-for their plans, for the first time, she gets the chance to find out what happened to this destroyed and abandoned world-and maybe also about her past. English isn't my first language, so I'd be happy to receive some criticism and also tips. I'd like to know if my story is interesting, so I know if I should go on and how to improve it :) I know, my writing isn't so good in the beginning, but I think it gets better throughout the story.
