The word "Lunatic" is derived from the Latin word "Luna," meaning "Moon," and the Greek word "Tic," meaning "Occurring."
The word is based on the old theory that the full moon made people turn crazy. But the full moon does a lot more than that at Seacliff Lunatic Asylum, where a mysterious creature has been preying on the patients.
*This story was originally written as an assignment for my Extension English Class. The narrative had to be based on elements of gothic literature which were portrayed in Bram Stoker's "Dracula".

Certainly they could trust that those in power ultimately had the best interests of the people in mind, right? ~~~ Luna slouched low in her seat, staring at droplets of water that ran diagonally down the window of the bus. The sky was a flat, depressing grey and the incessant, soaking rain left her constantly chilled. It was a typical "liquid sunshine" day in the Pacific Northwest. They drove past a single tall scraggly tree on top of a hill shrouded in mist. The creepy tree was full of screaming crows. How could she hear them from inside the bus when she couldn't even seem to hear the voices of the kids around her? Geez, that was an awfully freaking dark image. She shivered and looked away. What did they call a group of crows again? Right, a murder of crows. Perfect. The weather was certainly the only thing that was typical these days, although you'd never know it by looking around the bus at most of the kids as they sat joking and gossiping with each other just like they had before... before that day everything had changed. Idiots.Complete
Lupophobia (Ultima Series)
Lupophobia: (from Latin lupus, "wolf") or lycophobia (from Greek lykos, "wolf") is the fear of wolves or werewolves. ... For those fearing werewolves would tend to fear full moons (mestoselenophobia), since full moons can transform people into wolves, so those sufferers would isolate themselves from other people. My name is Aphmau Everton, and my entire life, I was taught to fear the werewolves. Let me sum up how this all started. Once upon a time, Zach was a young man with dreams to go to Yale. A week before he was to be sent on his way, his father was drafted to go capture the Ultima werewolf. He died doing so. Zach dropped his dream and began a new one: Capturing all the werewolves. He spent years creating his team and a few years later, I popped out the womb. That same day, there happened to be an Ultima sighting. No Ultima was caught, but a few werewolves were caught. Now, fast forward 24 years and here we are, celebrating my birthday on the same day as the Guardian Forces anniversary. Now, each year, I skip out on the party and go out with friends. This year was different. This year, the werewolves were out and hungry. They notice me and basically kidnap me and hold me hostage since I'm "precious cargo". This is when I come face to face with the Ultima. "Are you going to kill me?" You should hear this surprising answer for yourself.Complete

When Josephine returned to her home town after the death of her parents she was prepared to take a job at the local hospital. She wasn't prepared to run head first into her werewolf mate. She spent her entire childhood as the wolfless daughter of an Alpha who thought his own Luna was weak for not having a wolf.

Now, it's up to Josephine and her Alpha, August, to save their entire pack, but they aren't prepared for the war they just joined. "Mr. August Hayes was responsible for the cinnamon rolls and the smell of fall spices. If it wasn't his intense body language or the burning gaze staring into my soul giving it away, it would have been those electric blue eyes. The same ones that stole my sleep. I gulped. Why me? I squirmed uncomfortably in front of the panel as Dr. Grace led me to my chair. She was eyeballing me with a look that told me I had to pull it together. I sat down and quickly crossed my legs, trying to make myself smaller. Nurse Kasey was smirking at me, giving me a knowing look. Great, another one. I sighed through my mouth, careful not to inhale anymore of his scent. I had to get it together. I couldn't be the doctor from New York City who strolled into Little Compton hospital and made herself look like a complete idiot. I plastered on a smile."
