In February of 1959, nine hikers from the Ural Polytechnic Institute went out into the wilderness of the Ural Mountains. None of them would come out alive. Despite the best efforts of investigators, nobody could figure out just what happened to them: they concluded that a "compelling, natural force" had driven the hikers to their death.

Needless to say, that didn't even come close to satisfying the public.

The year is now 1964, and another mountaineer from the Ural Polytechnic Institute is turning heads. Nika Orlova is a prodigy in mountaineering, scaling mountains that most can't. Many people are fascinated by her, including investigators and family members who can't let the investigation into the Dyatlov hikers go unsolved.

After more strange things are reported around the mountain where the hikers died and a chance meeting with the close friend of the hikers, Nika has decided that the time has come for her to investigate what happened to the hikers five years previously. She and others affected by the case head out for the Siberian wilderness to find out once and for all what killed the Dyatlov hikers. 

However, from the moment they get out there, it becomes apparent that there are unnatural forces at play in the mountains. And the longer they're out there, Nika can't help but wonder: are they about to face the same fate?All Rights Reserved

In 2008, the kind, caring woman that was Adelaide Lehnsherr was dead to the world. She was dead to Charles Xavier, to the history books, to the young, new students of Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. But in the shadows, she was very much alive.

Kidnapped by Hystride

**UNDER CONSTRUCTION - This was written in 7th grade and I'm now graduated from high school with a few college credits under my belt. I'm fixing all of it.** A shiver raced down my spine and the air thickened. The other end of the alleyway wasn't far, but it didn't seem to be coming closer no matter how fast I walked. Humoring my paranoia, I glanced over my shoulder just in time to catch a fist to the face. I dropped to my hands and knees and stared at the ground in a daze. My jaw throbbed with each beat of my heart, hammering the side of my face. Strong hands gripped me and dragged me backward. We made considerable progress toward the other end of the alleyway before my dazed mind caught up with reality. I was being kidnapped.

Dusk Till Dawn (Parker X Chester) by NobodyProblematic

Ah, Mt. Washington.....the infamous mountain that surrounded Blackwood Pines. Years ago, two teenage girls went missing on that mountain, then the brother of those two followed exactly a year later...including some of his friends. Others have tried to search for them, including trained investigators, policemen, etc.... But....every time someone goes down there, they never return. Reporters haven't been able to get anything on any missing reports, escalating in giving up on the cases completely. Which means no one bothered to care about the most recent case that had been reported one year ago... The mountain went silent ever since, and no one ever dared to enter Blackwood Pines again.... well, that was how the story went until an idiot with a camera showed up out of thin air to film for his stupid spooky vlog channel.

East Bound - Russia x Germany by Arrin99423

Not a ship book (sorry) After graduating from the best Western University there is to offer, Germany, an aspiring historian with about as much decisiveness as he has money, boards a train heading east to Sakhalin Island. His compartment mate, Russia, a foreign worker fresh from the army who is frugal and possessive, who seems to not care about anything (including his life) joins him. Barely any recognition passes between them, although they are joined by Russia's old friend, Poland. It seems just like any other long-haul train ride. Until. The train they take breaks down, and the trek begins. Though ice and snow, wind and in between glaciers, hopping on and off broken down ATV's, icebreakers, and even deer. The inhospitable northeast with its cold exterior brings forth unimaginable heart and warmth in unexpected places. Life over the 72nd parallel hasn't even shown what it can do yet. At the shores of Sakhalin, down the tired slopes and where the dawn is born, not one of them knows what they had just gone through and why. The question is, can they overcome this new challenge?

Echo Thomas Olde [ENGLISH] by Callme_bishop

Nature is calling-but they shouldn't have answered. Travel journalist and mountaineer Nick Grevers awakes from a coma to find that his climbing buddy, Augustin, is missing and presumed dead. Nick's own injuries are as extensive as they are horrifying. His face wrapped in bandages and unable to speak, Nick claims amnesia-but he remembers everything. He remembers how he and Augustin were mysteriously drawn to the Maudit, a remote and scarcely documented peak in the Swiss Alps. He remembers how the slopes of Maudit were eerily quiet, and how, when they entered its valley, they got the ominous sense that they were not alone. He remembers: something was waiting for them... But it isn't just the memory of the accident that haunts Nick. Something has awakened inside of him, something that endangers the lives of everyone around him... It's one thing to lose your life. It's another to lose your soul.

White Crystal Butterflies | Wattys 2021 Shortlist | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete.

I write characters from many different backgrounds, with many different experiences. If you share those traits and find that I have misrepresented anything, please let me know!

Stationed on a mountaintop in the Fulda Gap during the Cold War, the barracks is buried beneath meters of snow every winter and the Rear Detachment cut off from all help. Every prior year has resulted in dozens of deaths and wounded via enemy action or madness induced violence. This year he's woken up, badly injured, on the floor of a barracks room, with no clue how he got there, who he had for backup, or why he's been left for dead by persons unknown. He's not completely there, his brain malfunctioning and even the lizard unable to get all his systems running. But someone has let the winter into the barracks, and Sergeant Stillwater, badly wounded and barely more than a dangerous animal himself, has to survive in Arctic conditions and see, not only who he has to defeat to survive, but who else might need his help.
