Death prowls the Basque town of Guernica, besieged by a civil war, and it falls on the shoulders of one cowardly but romantic soldier to save it...if he can overcome his anxiety first. 

***

Set in the Spanish Civil War, the town of Guernica has remained relatively out of harm's way of General Franco's Nationalist faction and their push to conquer all of Spain.

Alférez Sebastián "Sebas" Goicochea, an officer fighting on behalf of the Basque Republican Army, dreads the day when the town inevitably falls to the oncoming Nationalist forces, aides by the Nazi regime. But after the mysterious disappearance of several of his squad mates, and reports of disturbing sounds coming from all over the town, he realizes that the enemy does not come bearing uniforms and weapons, but crosses and priest's clothing. 

That, and the skin of his former comrades. 

Follow Sebas and his squad as they overcome their personal demons in order to battle new ones, to save the love of his life, and to stop the advance of the Nationalist/Nazi forces from destroying the only place he calls a home.

Will he have the courage to save what he holds dear the most? Or will his anxiety paralyze him when he stares at the face of death?

But when you're in a gang escaping the life of crime is easier said than done. Deciding to let go of her inhibitions to spend an unforgettable night with a stranger it all comes crashing down when she's assigned to kill the man she can't seem to forget. *** It doesn't take me long to find Judah. He looks like poison hiding behind a pretty face, seducing you to give in before he drags you to hell for sinning. I try and think of how I can lead him away without raising suspicion. But I don't end up having to do much because Judah soon blocks my way. "Why are you hiding from me little dove?" "I'm not." I whisper back. "How about we finish what we started that day?" I blush at the memories but quickly realize this is the best excuse to get him out of the spotlight. He takes my hand before we leave through the door and check a few rooms only to figure out that they're all locked. "The rooftop's door is open." As soon as he takes the first step I trip him but he finds his footing before swinging at my ribs. What I didn't expect was for him to pounce on me and pull my dagger out of my holster before stabbing my leg. Kicking his shin with my good leg I manage to flip us over. He's just about to throw me off when I land an uppercut to his jaw. I take out my gun to end this but just as I pull the trigger I'm grabbed. "No!" I struggle as I'm tied up before they check Judah. The wound clearly missed and isn't at all fatal. I watch as he sits up with a pained groan before his eyes meet mine. "I think I'm in love." He states breathlessly with a handsome grin.

Static by hattielynn

{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16

Reverence by Clumsy_escritora10

"I have no reason for staying here then. I'm not going to put myself in your so-called missions. Let me go back to my country as I have no partake in your operation" I said. Surpassing the beast, I take heavy steps towards the door when he pulls me back by my arm. I was taken aback when he pulled me, losing the balance I stumble on my tracks and with his strong pull I land on his chest. I immediately push myself back when he snakes his arm around my back making me unable to move from his grasp. We were so close now that my front was almost touching his making us look like hugging. He lowers himself and says "If you have a death wish then go ahead. The moment headquarters hear that you're no use to them, they will kill you without sparing a glance at you". Reverence This story depicts the story of two individual from different sides of the world who falls hardly for each other. If one is fire then the other one is water, making it next to impossible to meet at one point. Our male protagonist 'Aron' is smitten with our female protagonist 'June', however he doesn't show his emotions fearing that it will make him look weaker. He carries a strict and scary aura around him which makes people think that he is a ruthless person. On the contrary he is quite the opposite from inside. And our female lead carries a carefree nature who doesn't care about anything but herself. She is a savage quick witted person who can do anything for her own survival if required. When these two polar opposites crosses path with, we can expect a lot of drama and action, eventually seeing these fall for each other.

Release Me by anna_rose01

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.
