The world has been broken by war. Large swathes of the earth have become uninhabitable after countries blasted each other with bombs and nuclear radiation. But out of the destruction rose what all governments deem as a threat. Children and teenagers begin to warp. Abilities appear. Some small, some big, some harmless, some dangerous, but one thing in common is that no one understands how they happened...
What we don't understand, we fear,
What we fear, we judge as evil,
What we judge something as evil, we attempt to control,
And what we can't control,
We attack...

Hey y'all,
My second book and definitely better than my first. At least in the beginning. I got the idea of this story from a dream I had and hopefully the story goes somewhere. Hope all of you enjoy.

Becoming Her Dark Side
They lied to me. My own family. My so-called friends. All of them hiding the truth, that we're tied to the criminal underworld, a forte where my family, the Storms, are the undisputed kings. Then everything falls apart. My dad gets framed. My cousin ends up dead. And the boy I've had a childhood crush on-Nathaniel-turns out to be the one who could destroy me. At least Luke, the one person I shouldn't want, fights to keep me from breaking... but even he has secrets. But it's gets even worse, because now an organization is rising from the shadows, an organization that opposes everything my family stands for. And in a family of warmongers and sociopaths, I stood out as a glaring weakness. The most normal, the most vulnerable, and the most efficient way to end a dynasty that has ruled for centuries. Because what is a throne without an heir, and a crown without its king. So here I am, stuck in a game of blood and betrayal where the only way to survive is to stop being the fragile girl they thought I was. If I have to burn bridges, spill blood, and embrace the monster inside me, then so be it. Because this time, I'm not running from my darkness. I'm becoming it.
It's Time to Choose, Soldier (BxB)
The world is now in ruins. Most of the world gave up on trying to keep the peace between countries leaving everything to fall apart. Now the world was just completely chaotic. But as we began to destroy ourselves we found the answer to end our war once and for all. Kids. Those who have the most energy, the most resistance, and the most impulsive would be the ones to save us all for the world's permanent end. How? Simple, they needed to learn to fight, think, and act like soldiers. But in a world, this catastrophic, is there even any room for to have a personal life? Room for love? (P.S. This book is under constant editing. There are some major changes that may appear throughout your reading experience. I'm not saying you have to but if you want, be on the lookout for any updates or changes to already published chapters. Aside from that, happy reading!) (P.P.S. This is my first original story that I've published so depending on how this one does, I'll gauge my audience and see what people want in the future from me and my writing)Complete
The New Adults( DISCONTINUED TILL 2026 )
They were told to be heroes. But at the end of the day-they're still just kids. When kids all over the world suddenly developed powers, the government saw only profit-and fear. Families were forced to give up their children to brutal testing labs, or face execution for "fostering a threat." Some ran. Now hiding in the wreckage of what was once their home, a group of escaped kids has built their own society: The New House. No adults. No rules-except survive. They train. They fight. They bleed. Because every day, someone breaks the rules. One sneaks off to hear her mother's voice. Another plots betrayal from within. Friendships turn to rivalries. Love turns to loss. Powers spiral out of control. And when they fight-they don't hold back. But underneath the fighting, the power, the chaos... they're just scared kids trying to protect each other from a world that wants them gone. They're building a future without the adults they previously relied on and are instead forced to come together, but some of them would give anything just to go home.Complete
The Girl with No Emotions
I was just thinking. I swear. But maybe my mind over thought. It's weird that everything can seem so simple, straight forward. Black and white. Two colors. So obvious. So there. Him and Her. Two people. So obvious. So there. But once you add gray, things get kind of complicated. Then you add color. And it's a wonderfully complicated bright world. She's two in one. The storm and the shade. No one ever stops to thank the storm for shading them from what's above it. What if the sun was too strong, too powerful that day and the storm came along just to protect us all from it? It was this epic battle between the two and the storm was hurting and it cased all this damage to the earth. No one thanks the storm for its sacrifice when it finally loses the battle and the sun shows its smug face. We all hate the storm for the disaster it created and praise the sun, when the storm just wanted to protect us. The storm and the shade. She's the storm and the shade. She's the chaos and the calm. Only I can't see the chaos. Not fully. She's keeping it all inside. All I see is the calm. I can tell though. I can tell there's chaos. I just can't see it. It's not so black and white. It's not a simple boy likes girl. Girl likes boy. It never was. But I like her. I do. The storm and the shade.Complete![Revolution- Runaways 3 [EDITING]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/291558876-256-k521724.jpg)
Revolution- Runaways 3 [EDITING]
The whole camp was filling with smoke. I coughed, praying that my lungs would keep working for just a few more minutes. "Eli, which way is west?" Adam's breathing was just as labored from physical exertion, smoke, and panic as mine was. I didn't even process the question. I didn't know. We couldn't see anything through the smoke because the fire was spreading so quickly, and I just realized I'd forgotten my walkie-talkie. "Don't know!" I answered. Adrenaline was the only thing that kept my feet going. I knew we'd come in the East Gate, and if the cells were in the center, then if we kept going straight, we were going to find the gate any second. "Keep straight!" I instructed. I saw his head bob slightly, acknowledging my delayed direction. Then Adam cried out beside me, and I stopped short. I reached for his body involuntarily as he pitched forward, nearly causing him to take me down with him. My left hand was soaking wet from where it had landed on his shoulder. I winced as I tried to steady him, not daring to look at what I knew would be a pool of blood in my hand. ☁ Now that they have a new ally on their side, they're looking to change the United States for good. At some point, they want every camp freed and every teenager home safe. But each new camp brings an endless supply of new challenges. Things are beginning to spin out of control. Follow each of them as they discover who they are, who they love, and more of their country's secrets than they could ever dream of in a thrilling trilogy told from all five points of view.Complete

No Superheroes Allowed
Long ago a group of superheroes and villains worked together to prevent an invasion. But they managed to kill more people than they saved.

"Hey, who are you?" I could tell he wasn't trying to scare him off while still trying to establish the fact that we could hurt him if we wanted to. "I was gonna ask you the same question," he replied. "But since to beat me to it, I'm Eli. I'm just a seventeen-year-old kid out here alone. Y'all seem to be in the same situation." His southern accent was thick but definitely not South Carolinian. It sounded more like he was from Alabama or Mississippi. "True. For how long?" "Four weeks. I ran away because of...circumstances," he said, trailing off on the last word. "Prove to us you're not dangerous," Marcus threatened. "Prove to me you're not dangerous," Eli countered. "I don't even know your names." "Fine. I'm Marcus, that's Peyton, Luke, and Aaliyah," he answered, gesturing toward each of us as he spoke. I could tell he didn't trust the guy, but he seemed good enough. He hadn't said anything to make us distrust him, but he also hadn't said anything to make us trust him. "Look, dude, I'm not trying to hurt you. I'm looking for something a friend told me about a few weeks ago. She said there was a whole network of teens out here, but there's a camp somewhere in Florida that gives them a place to stay. Secret, of course, and run by teens, but anyway, it seems safer than being out here and living off the land." "Wait, you mean there are more of us?" I asked. ☁ Three teenagers find themselves rejected by their families after they're all unexpectedly outed on the same night. With the help of their friend, they head to the streets in search of freedom and acceptance. Along the way they meet another boy, and there's more to him then they could have ever guessed. Follow each of them as they discover who they are, who they love, and more of their country's secrets than they could ever dream of in a thrilling trilogy told from all five points of view.Complete
