This is the world where people have no need for any of the devices some are used to. We drop off old technology off on Mars in storage places we managed to build 100 years ago. You all may be wondering; "What year is this taking place? Who is even writing in this old journal anyway?"
My name is Dakota Caldwell. It's the year I am the former leader of this small collection of islands called Castonia. It's been 19 years since all this took place and I wrote about this stuff when it all happened. I was about 36 when it all went down so I'm currently 55 as we speak and don't know if I did good with explaining all this.
Anyways, I was about 14 years into my role here and was sorta ok with it then. I had my second in command, close soldiers that were like family, and soon a adopted child. But I'll get more into detail on all that in the chapters.
As a leader, you'll have some people against you and what all you say. I had a Rebellion on my islands so I was fully aware of them and what all was happening that they were doing. One whole attack blew my whole world into a twist of clouds around my head.
This may all sound ridiculous but if you read all that happened, you'll under stand all my troubles. I'll continue writing in this journal for my kids and soon grandkids to read. Hopefully this will teach them how to do a better job then I did and figure out what went wrong. I must go now, so I'll write back in a week or three. May you all be save in your little bubbles,
-Dakota Caldwell

Love, Taylor | TS
Dear Rory, I'm sorry about what I said. I'm leaving for LA in two days. Can we talk before then, please? We can just drive around as usual. I don't know how to do this if you're upset with me. Call me please. I'm staying at my parents' house. Love, Taylor *** Aurora Taylor has been living her best life for the past ten years or so. She works for Odyssey, a travel magazine based in New York City, New York, where she gets to go on dozens of trips a year to the most beautiful corners on earth to write articles about her journey. When she's not travelling, she also dabbles in fiction writing, a little secret passion of hers only few people know about. When the pressure of her two jobs gets a little too hard to manage, she decided to take a week off in a beautiful town at the beach in Northern Italy. A week full of unadulterated fun and relaxation, with unlimited glasses of chilled Prosecco and gelato cones. Or, so she thought. Her plans are completely ruined when she runs into someone she never thought she would ever see again. Not in person at least. A ghost from her past. Taylor Swift. Thirteen years and the universe decides to throw them together in a random town in Italy. Taylor does not believe that it is a coincidence. Aurora is a little reluctant to believe it. But thirteen years is a hard number for Taylor to ignore and she is adamant on making things right with the writer who finds it hard to forgive and forget all that was said and done thirteen years ago. *** This story is entirely my work of fiction. All characters and fictional places are from my own imagination except for real celebrities. The timeline is not necessarily a hundred percent accurate to Taylor's for the sake of the story and for it to make sense. I hope you enjoy it!Complete

"I'm such a bother to yall." I choke out. "I'm so fucking weak. I can't even defend myself." Xavier's arms unwrap from my body, and his hands hold my teary face. "I'm a worthless h-human." Xavier furrows his eyebrows in pain. A tear of his own falling down his face. "No," he says shaking his head. "No. You've never been a bother to me. You aren't weak. And you most certainly aren't worthless." I gasp to breathe, and he continues talking. "What you are is an amazing person who hasn't let all of this crazy bullshit affect her. You handled it like a champ. What you are is a strong, brave being that has stood by my side." I breathe as he leans closer. "What you are, is the love of my life...."Complete

Camera Flashes (1) - Taylor Swift
"You talk like you ate a thesaurus for breakfast. You should try a normal person word instead of lineage, like family." "Would that not involve being remotely fond of them?" Being famous is like someone slowly suffocating you. Even if you chose it, you don't realize until it's already too late and the air is gone. Some people make it out, some crave the attention, while others merely let it suffocate them past the point of no return. Grace didn't choose to be famous, but Taylor did. The camera flashes are bright, they are blinding, and life is a total nightmare. It's about to get a whole lot worse. - An alternate universe to my story 'Stay' and the subsequent one shots, same characters, completely different life. As with all my stories, this book contains mature themes and sensitive subject matter and is intended for a mature audience. Reader discretion is advised. - This is a work of fiction and I only own original characters and not Taylor Swift, her works or any other living and mentioned people. Persons and or opinions are fictional and not meant to cause harm to anyone living or dead. Do not reproduce or adapt.Complete
Angel rain
This is a Riddick fanfic: You can't know what's out there until you're forced to leave your bubble. That was true in and of its self, but Alice was more than forced to leave a bubble, she was forced to leave her planet. A drawing of terrible luck on top of terrible timing, it was something she was kinda used to, but this was a whole new level of fucked. Truth be told, Alice was a sweet girl, a kind girl. She would help anyone and tried to never judge anyone too hard, even if her gut told her otherwise. She often paid for her kindness with being used, but still it didn't change her, not until someone took more than she could handle, not until she met him and he lit a fire in her. Ending up in the last place she ever thought she would, she learns she is more than just a girl, she is a woman... HIS woman. --------------------- I will say this here and now, this story is not for children. While I do not tend for the story to sole be on smut, it will happen. It had dark themes and some things maybe be triggering. So, this is your warning. As I say, you can't have darkness without light and no light without darkness. Started in 2015 Heavy edit in 2025* I don't own Riddick or the characters from it. I own Alice, my own ideas and characters I create.
Crushed Underneath the Surface
For years, I've been writing in silence, creating worlds, characters, and stories that lived only in the margins of my notebooks and tucked-away folders on my computer. Writing has always been my escape, something I've done for myself-a way to step out of reality for a moment and breathe through the lives of the people I've imagined. I've written and rewritten countless stories, always hesitant to share them, never quite confident enough to let anyone else peek into the depths of my mind. It's always felt like just a hobby, something personal, something safe. But deep down, I've carried a quiet dream of becoming a writer, even though it felt a little foolish to hope for something so big. Now, after pouring myself into this story for what feels like a lifetime, I've finally done it-I've uploaded all my chapters to Wattpad, sharing this piece of me with the world. I know I still have so much to learn, and I'm always striving to get better, but I would truly appreciate any feedback-good, constructive criticism that can help me grow. This is just the beginning, but it feels like a huge step forward. Thank you for taking a chance on this book. Whatever brought you here, whether it was curiosity, a recommendation, or just a moment of wandering, I am truly grateful.Complete
Illusions and Lies (A Super Smash Brothers fan fiction)
NOTICE: THIS STORY IS AN OLD DRAFT. It is currently in the process of being rewritten. For your sake (and mine) please go check out "ILLUSIONS AND LIES: REWRITE" on my profile. While I'm not stopping you from reading this- especially if you're impatient and want to know how the story goes- please do keep in mind that aspects of this story are unpolished in this book. "we thought we were special. turns out, we were wrong." A group of teenagers who live in a place known only as "The Compound" are led to believe that they are the last people on the planet, aside from their ever-present caretakers. The Caretakers study them and their abilities, never once letting them know of the thriving outside world. In the outside world, everybody has abilities, known as "Gifts." The oppressive government prevents people from using these Gifts properly. A faction of rebels is on the rise, determined to retrieve the children they lost to this cruel government and create a fairer world for all. "and we don't like being wrong..." Modern futuristic AU. This story will contain mature themes and triggering topics, such as somewhat detailed descriptions of blood and violence, suicide, depression, homophobia, child abuse, and death. I do not own the characters, but I do own the plot. Please do not steal the plot or elements of this story.Complete
Monotone | ✔️
"If we were so riveted in the spectrum of nature, why did we stand, petrified, as we became corrupted by idle technology, stupefied by glowing screens, stolen from life as we know it from enemies right under our noses? Why did we relent to this obvious threat when we did have the capability to change, and prevent our peaceful hierarchy from being razed? It was the consequence of this stupidity that condemned us all to slaves, servants of a towering race of robots and data." The year 2096. Robots rule the world. Their grip seemed impenetrable, the extent of their control unknown by the humans. Society is blinded by the splendour and wealth of all the technology. "We live in mere fear, unable to access any computerised knowledge for fear of being discovered. We're convicted to the old ways of living, our specialists abilities unable to be used. It puts a very ironic twist on the definition of being free." COMPLETED --Complete
