30 parts Complete Mature
Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.

When a bombing spree rocks the heart of the city, leaving behind unimaginable horror, Alex is thrust into a relentless pursuit of a faceless enemy. But as he battles to stay grounded amidst the chaos, a faint pulse of life beneath the wreckage forces him to confront the past he's tried to bury. The echo of his own daughter's disappearance-a case that went cold with no answers, no closure-ignites a firestorm of vengeance that threatens to consume him. As the story unfolds, each chapter peels back layers of a city teetering on the edge of an abyss, where the innocent and the guilty collide in a macabre dance of survival. Twists and turns lurk at every corner, leading readers down a path where the boundaries between justice and revenge blur, and where the truth is darker than anyone could imagine. This novel promises a gripping, heart-pounding journey through the mind of a man haunted by his own demons, as he chases a shadow that may hold the key to his redemption-or his ultimate downfall. With each page, the tension escalates, drawing readers deeper into a world where nothing is as it seems, and the real terror lies not in the destruction around them, but in the ghosts that haunt their every move. Prepare for a thrilling ride filled with shocking revelations, emotional turmoil, and a thirst for justice that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page. The darkness is just beginning, and the twists that lie ahead will leave you breathless.

Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.
