Genre: Empathetic Historical Fiction
Theme: World War Two / Family History
Audience: Young Adult / Adult


What makes this story special? 
The answer is plain and simple...nothing!
It is a story that is not unique to any time or place. 
It is a story that has plagued history well before these events and a sorry tale that continues to prevail as we live and breathe. 

It is a historical compilation of the oral and written entwined with the possibility of truth.
It is the story of the 'Campbell' family and their lives during World War 2. Historically it focuses on the 2/13 Battalion and 2/1 Pioneers and their journey to Tobruk and the birth of the infamous Rats of Tobruk. On an emotional level it explores how the Campbell family dealt with the loss of three sons in less than three years.

It is a common story that encapsulates the history of far too many families and in its rawness it could be your family.
Have the stories and characters of the story grown in their own legendary status? Has fact given way to fiction? 
The answer is plain and simple, "I don't know". 
Held together with possibilities, as the writer I am often unsure where black and white merge to become grey. 
'Campbell'- Scottish in its origin, the family crest bears an image of fierce, snarling bore. However, it is not this image that brings meaning to this story but rather its Latin motto 'Ne Obliviscaris '- Never Forget.

epiphany. (Bucky Barnes x Reader) by gingerthestormwitch

Part One of the "No Tricks" Trilogy. Sergeant James Buchanan "Bucky" Barnes AKA The Winter Soldier doesn't remember much of his past. You are a former SHIELD intelligence analyst with a troubled past who seeks to help him uncover it. What you don't expect is to fall in love along the way. (Bucky Barnes x Reader). Setting: After CA:TWS until/during/after CA:CW - 2014 - 2016. NOTE: As the events of this book take place over two years, there will be multiple time skips/jumps in order for the story to progress without getting boring or repetitive. Just a heads up if that's not your jam. My OC belongs to me, anything associated with Marvel doesn't; I just use them as my playthings. NOTE: This story is for people 18+. There are mature themes explored in this story including but not limited to: suicide, violence, trauma, and graphic sex. There are warnings above each chapter, but just forewarning you. If you are under 18+, I'd suggest you find something else to read: 1) I don't want to corrupt you. 2) I don't need angry parents/guardians coming for me. But ultimately I can't stop you if you do decide to read this story.

Why do we Fight? - Volume I - For Honor by ArcanePanzer

Good soldiers follow orders, but true warriors know what is right. Since the start of civilization, soldiers have been a part of every society. They are trained only for one thing: War. Though it is not necessarily a part of the human mentality, it has existed and ravaged over the millenias. Occasionally, a soldier would ask himself: "Why do they fight?" "Is it really worth the lives of our brothers and sisters?" ... "Does love bloom in the darkest of paths?" ++++++++++++++++++++ OC x Male reader insert Slow paced romance and may include in-game characters with actual personalities and interactions that I made myself, because come on. Naming NPCs without backstories? Makes the story kind of bland for me but meh, that's my opinion. Default name for the reader is 'Argen Lorderius.' Btw, I do not own any pictures and other stuff in the fanfic. Refer to the disclaimer on each chapter :/.

Soft Tenderness | Sam Wilson by PatheticFckinfool

But now, I feel lost and bewildered, as if I'm starting from scratch in a whole new world. Unlike my brother or Steve, I didn't have the luxury of time to adapt. I was fortunate in some matters, I wasn't frozen in ice like Steve, or brainwashed by HYDRA like Bucky; Though it all happened in the blink of an eye, and suddenly everything changed. Howard, who had been a constant presence in my life, was gone, and now stood in front of me was Fury, a man of enigmatic power and influence. I wanted comfort and I found it closer than I thought I would. {WARNING THIS STORY MAY CONTAIN GRAPHIC/MATURE CONTENT, IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO ANYTHING SKIP THE CHAPTERS WITH WARNINGS AND READ WITH CAUTION; MAY CONTAIN - SEXUAL/EXPLICIT CONTENT - MENTIONS/DISCUSSION OF RACE - DISCUSSION OF FEMINISM/WOMAN'S RIGHTS - TIME TRAVEL - ADJUSTMENT TO THE MODERN ERA - FAMILIAL PROBLEMS/ISSUES - GRIEF/MOURNING DEATH/DISAPPEARANCE - WW2 MENTIONS - TRAUMA/POST TRAUMATIC STRESS MENTIONS - NIGHTMARES/TERRORS - FORCED PROXCIMITY [KIND OF] - MENTIONS OF SUICIDE/SUICIDAL TENDENCIES- MURDER - DIFFERENT KINKS [POSSIBLY] - AND OTHER MATURE CONTENT OF THE SORTS.}

The Passion of London [Highlander's Love #1] by kitsumiekat

HIGHEST RANKING #6 in HISTORICAL FICTION! --- For all her life, Lady Evie Verrick had been regaled of tales of the Highlands from her Highland born and bred mother. She had grown up dreaming of chivalrous knights, sword-fighting, horse back riding. Tales of kin and family, loyalty and the warmth of a home. But being brought up in a traditional English household with a traditional father, her mother was the closest thing to the Highlands she could get. And when her mother died of pneumonia before her coming out, left to her father's care, Evie wants now, more then ever, to see the promised lands that she grew up with. --- Connor Gilroy had served as the first in command to the MacKenzie clan for as long as he could remember. He owed his loyalty to his best friend and brother in arms, Hammond MacKenzie, who had saved him from being skinned alive by English soldiers years ago, before the truce was signed between the two lands. Having no love lost for the country, Hammond would be the only person who could ever convince Connor to step foot back into English lands. His chief had recently received news on the death of the aunt he has never met, but Hammond was a man of his word, and he had promised his father he would care for all kin, regardless of who they were. But Connor never would've imagined that the cousin of his best friend would be a spirit of the flames. The way Evie took on life and all of its problems with a passion that ignited a hearth, would perhaps be the first time someone ever ignited more then just passion and desire within him.

Spiderman's Sister by immichelleracine

Victoria Parker is the twelve years older sister of none other than Peter Parker aka Spiderman. After their parents died, they both went to an orphanage and as soon as Victoria came of age she took over the guardianship of her little brother. Together they moved to the New York suburbs where Peter goes to school and Victoria works as a journalist for a newspaper. After the death of their parents, the two inherited a lot of money, which Victoria keeps secret from Peter so that he doesn't become a rich spoiled rascal. By chance she found out one day that Peter is Spiderman. As long as he doesn't neglect school, she has no problem with it. But as life sometimes plays out, at some point everything turns out differently than planned. Promises are broken, decisions are made but not always accepted. Will the siblings' close bond hold up when another man begins to play an emotional role in Victoria's life? This story is a Marvel fan fiction. Among other things, it will contain scenes that describe violence and sexual acts. It will also contain scenes from the existing Marvel Fils and TV Shows, not necessarily in the correct order and every now and then the outcomes of the scenes have been changed a bit ;) I hope you like it :) 09.09.2022 for almost 4 Weeks & again 19.10.2022- Nr. 1 #buckybarnespov 28.01.2023 - Nr. 1 #sebastianstan 28.01. & 06.02. & 15.02.2023 - Nr. 1 #buckybarnesxsteverogers 23.03.2023 - Nr. 1 #buckybarnes 03.04.2023 - Nr. 1 #captainamericathewintersoldier 21.05.2023 - Nr. 1 #avengerspov 01.01.2024 - Nr. 1 #marvelfanfiction 28.04.2024 - Nr. 1 #barnes

Paws Of Stars book #1: Rising Tides by Ilovewarriorcats1101

I AM NOT SUNNYFALL OR ERIN HUNTER NOR DO I CLAIM TO BE. I GIVE THEM FULL CREDITS TO ALL THE ART AND WRITING. I AM POSTING THIS HERE FOR FUN, I DO NOT OWN THIS MASTERPIECE. Link; https://archiveofourown.org/works/25556701/chapters/103613655#workskin The Warrior Cats series Power of Three and Omen of the Stars are often thought of as the weakest in the series. The plot stretched over two arcs, leaving the former on a cliffhanger, the characterization was often sloppy, and although the story had a lot of ideas and ambition, it didn't succeed in much of the execution. I seek to rewrite these into one 7 book series without making drastic changes to the characters or plots involved in the story, though changes do get more noticable the further in the series you go. This first book covers the story of Hollypaw, Lionpaw, and Jaypaw in their early childhoods and apprenticeships, starting friendships, learning the ropes of living in the clan, and making some missteps along the way, as anyone would expect them to. It roughly covers the plots of The Sight and Dark River from the Power of Three series and will end with a warrior ceremony for our main characters, and them learning a significant detail about their lives that will guide the rest of the series.

Humanity of the Broken [ Band of Brothers ] 2 by Silmarilz1701

Selected for the Wattpad Historical Fiction profile's top 25 shortlist in the Historical Awards 2023 #1 in Feminist, #1 in Easy Company, #1 Band of Brothers Book 2 - * - * - * - "No war can be won without young men dying. Those things which are precious are saved only by sacrifice." - Stephen E. Ambrose, Band of Brothers - * - * - * - War never changes, but who you fight alongside does. In 1942, Alice Klein left the French Maquis to assist the American's paratrooper corps. She lost everything to the Nazis when she left: her family, her country, and her friends. But she gained Easy Company. Alice and the rest of Easy Company have been through six long months of combat already. They've seen friends die. But they're about to enter the toughest months yet. December in Bastogne brings trench foot, artillery barrages, and snipers. It brings frostbite and stupid mistakes. And above all, D-Day + 193 brings death. As the war drags on, Alice must face hard truths about what it means to be a German Jew. Events from 1942 come to light which force her to rethink everything she knew about her family's fate. As it turned out, Germans were the first victims of the Nazi party. Thankfully, Alice doesn't have to face it alone. While some faces disappear forever, others become closer than she could have ever imagined. Because though war never changes, who you fight it with does. - * - * - * - Pairing: Lewis Nixon/OC BOOK TWO in [ A Tale of Two Heritages ] Start Date: March 24, 2020 End Date: May 11, 2020 Word Count: 139,901 Cross-posted to FFN and Ao3. and to julianneday1701 on Tumblr - * - * - * - THIS CONTAINS realistic depictions of world war ii, realistic depictions of the holocaust, strong language, major character death, cigarette abuse, alcohol abuse SMOKING is bad for your health, kids.

Aramais - An Armenian Rhapsody by whittakerd

A Canterbury Tales for the dawn of the Iron Age, this story follows an upstart Middle-East monarchy through its march to self-identity in the shadow of its menacing neighbor, Assyria. It starts out hopeful enough--an annual jubilee of unity happens to coincide with a long heralded deliverance of Mosaic proportions. It being 847BC, though, pride, child abuse, adultery, cannibalism, greed, murder, euthanasia, arms dealers, bitter clans clinging to existence, and jealous nobles seem only to challenge the mercy of the attendant deities, placing the protagonist (an atheistic thug) face-to-face with his past, present, and a card-carrying member of antiquity's pantheon of self-righteous despots. The arc of this epic will be familiar to many westerners. In stratum homonymic, the title and story, while not a mirror reflection, parallel the 'good book' many of us grew up with; from the beginning to the end. I'd be lying if I told you this was coincidental. In this regard, many of you will identify with the mannerisms, moods, and motives of the main characters, from the food addicted Urartian king to the neighborly heroine simultaneously seeking home and revenge, and from a superstitious, pagan priest who breaks everything he touches, to our mother-loathing antagonist, Shalmaneser, looking for wisdom in all the wrong places.

ROTWOTA: Book 3 - Resistance, Rebellion, and Revenge by BenGamer2496

I recommend reading the first two parts before this! After only two weeks into the anthro takeover, things have gone right and wrong on both sides. Emma, Cody, Eric, and many more human and engine survivors have fought to escape to a safe haven within the Biltmore estate and village in North Carolina. However, with tension between new and old faces slowly arising, everyone will inevitably have to face the war in order to survive, or at least make it out while staying themselves, physically and mentally. Meanwhile, on the opposite side, June and her friends and family just fighting to stay alive slowly begin to realize they're more important than they think. As not long after, they're forced back into battle to help continue their part in bringing about the end of the human race. However, many don't realize at first that they have more in common than they think. All they know is that many of those they've been acquainted with will likely make it out alive or as themselves. Now it's up to them to partner with their new and old friends and equate one another as allies against powerful forces in order to protect themselves, and all they ever cared about before it's too late. Inspired by the works of: TidmouthThunderbolt/_Frogz Shanks Sodor Fallout Studios Lucat_here ChloeTgTf Truck_of_Tar ThomasProductions2019 Tines Sensathe PATBP The Duffer Brothers (And many more YouTube and Wattpad creators, this list is longer than I remember and I don't want to let it take up the description, please forgive me I ran out of allowed characters) Warning: This story contains mature themes such as swearing, death, themes of war, gore depictions, highly racist actions and symbolism, and more. I recommend you be 13 years or older to read this story. ALSO, DO NOT STEAL ANY OF THE OC CHARACTERS (but I do confess that there are some characters that I don't own and I'd like to apologize to those owners that I didn't credit you all😬). Enjoy the third part of the ROTPOTA series!
