Barbeques littered the dingy streets, gatherings of people, so many people, huddled together around fire pits, sitting on cheap plastic chairs and turning their backs to the sagging buildings, using their laughter as blinders to Registration Day.
We used to go a lot, but after my brother, we couldn't find a reason anymore. Barbeques are for happy, whole families.
For the rest of us, the families who got the wrong flip of the coin, they're just a reminder of the life we don't have.

Escaping the Monster's Embrace (OLD BEING REWRITTEN )
(Currently being rewritten under a new name The Claimed) Everything changed when they came out of hiding, terror spread across the world as people began to question if our presidents and our global leaders lied to us and weren't from the same race. The Beasts blended in amongst us as if we were the same, except humans didn't have the same predatory instincts and we couldn't change our forms like they could. Soon after we learnt that we weren't the only species people began going missing. Some were unlucky and taken as something that the Beasts called a Mate that one word made fear spread throughout my veins, I would rather sell my soul than have one of them mutts chain me to them. Six months went by before the government, that was un-tainted by this vile race began to take action into their own hands contacting other countries and militaries causing the great war to happen, sending both my parents off to fight for our rights. Only one of them came back, two months was the longest we lasted before we were overpowered by them. Six years of living in this dysfunctional environment and my hatred had never dwindled. Some people still believed in god and had faith in him, I didn't know what I believed in but I prayed like everyone else that I would get through another day without hearing the soul crushing word 'Mate'.

Being the difference I want to see in the world.
As sad as it may be, we live in a world where the rich are getting richer, and the poor live in worse conditions every day. A world where people have to live behind masks and hide who they truly are, just to be accepted into this corrupted society. A world where everyone primarily thinks of himself and not about what he could to help his brother in need? Dive into my vision, be bold enough to read these chapters, and accept that you may have also been committing these mistakes that corrupt our society and together, let us grow into better versions of ourselves and begin to wonder; what if this had happened to me? How would I have reacted? What can I do to change my community? What if I decide to manifest my dreams every day instead of wishing they would happen? Every single part of this will be entirely unique but all interconnected by one subject, "the human nature". Only together can we change the world, don't be so lazy to think that it is the government's job to do so; take your responsibilities and act to see a change.Complete

utter chaos
We were outcasts. Loved by parents, until they died, left or used us as trophies for attention from different social groups. Living from paycheck to paycheck is stressful, but living with family makes it worth it. I thought we all lived a normal life until the secrets of our pasts started to disintegrate and unravel, causing utter chaos.
"Future Family" - Sanders Sides AU | DISCONTINUED
**DISCONTINUED** •Unwanted pregnancy and finding true emotion •Forbidden love and change of mind •Self-reflection and acceptance •Heartbreak and dwelling on the past •Un-loyalty and forgiveness •Loss of control and learning true love •Grief, regret and the importance of family Sure, this family is crazy, emotional, and sometimes overwhelming, but we all have to love each other no matter what happens. Even when our family is mixed up with dark powers and full of soap opera-esk drama, ...but no family is perfect. *slow updates • started: September 2018 ended: July 2019Complete
Brotherhood.
Their father was an abusive man who went out each night to get drunk, and their mother was an angel sent directly from Heaven to protect them. It all changed the moment their youngest brother was brought into the world, removing their mother completely from it. You would think, life couldn't get any worse.. I mean, you already have five younger brothers who most of the time don't get along with each other, and a father who will beat you just for breathing. Well... we thought it couldn't get much worse, until our youngest pulled a knife on our father to protect one of us.. We're six brothers, who never get along, but will protect each other no matter the consequences. Even when our old man shows up at the front door after being released from prison.Complete
