Edie Hunter gets a job as a Muse, her boss is a little eccentric (ok very eccentric then) Surely helping angst ridden poets can't be that hard?
No one said anything about working for a grumpy vampire or preventing zombies from taking over the town.

When a life altering event renders Lucius struggling not to die on the streets however things turn grim very fast, and in an act of desperation Lucius casts his beliefs aside, promising his soul to be devoured by The Waste at the time of his death with the promise of power in return. It doesn't take long for Lucius to realize that even the smallest of favors promised to him come with a catch, and being forced to do the Scourge of The Waste's wicked bidding while watching loved one after loved one disappear from his life Lucius has to wonder if a lifetime of power was really worth an eternity of suffering.

The Taste of Iron
Humanity is struggling to survive in a world that's no longer theirs. Liv, a scavenger leading missions to the edges of the city for food, medicine, and iron, knows things are getting worse. Every trip feels more desperate than the last. Humanity has an expiration date-the forest, and the creatures that dwell there, just have to wait them out. When a mission turns out to be a trap and Liv wakes up on the wrong side of the tree line-alone, disoriented, and for some reason not dead-she learns the forest doesn't just kill people or take their souls. It changes them. She doesn't know what she's becoming. Only that it's something way stronger than what she was. And that killing things never felt this good. Murderbot meets The Cruel Prince-with a whole lot of psychological horror My entry for onc2025, based on prompt 125: I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain. - Frank HerbertCompleta
Haunted
The dead typically want one of two things. Ghosts crave conversation. Spirits seek pain. My name is Bria, and I've been able to interact with the dead for as long as I can remember. Communicating with the deceased might sound like a cool gift, but let me assure you, it's not. Ghosts don't shut up, and not all specters are friendly. In fact, most of them are dangerous. Pretending the paranormal doesn't exist is far easier than talking to the shadows, so I've been avoiding the dead for years. Past experiences have led me to avoid the living too. And for a long time, I've successfully kept my distance. Until a single ghost encounter in the library ruins everything. Now a couple of my classmates know my secret. But as it turns out, they have a deadly secret of their own. Time to talk to the shadows again. _______________ This story contains profanity and violence. [ONC 2021 Shortlister]Completa

STATE VS. DEVYN CROSS
Devyn Cross never wanted to be famous. He never wanted his name trending as a hashtag, his face on the news, or his secrets dissected by strangers. All he ever wanted was for someone to believe him. Now he's sixteen, on trial for murder, and the world has already made up its mind: Problem child. Troublemaker. Killer. The DA calls him a monster. The defense calls him a survivor. The media calls it the trial of the century. But behind the cameras, the handcuffs, and the lies, Devyn holds the one truth no one ever wanted to hear: He asked for help. No one listened. And now, the jury isn't just deciding his fate-they're deciding whether his voice finally matters. Because that night, Devyn wasn't just fighting for himself. He was fighting for his little sister-the only person he's ever cared about saving. ✨ If you connect with this story, don't forget to read, vote, and comment-your support means everything!
