It didn't take much for Rylan's life to be hard case.

Whether it be the sterilized corridors of the hospital hallways or the never ending torment that is his condition, it has never been easy.

But after losing his father and being forced to move onto his mother's childhood home in a world completely different to the one he grew to know, his life didn't get any less complicated. If anything, between the hospital room and his new home on the reservation, it got nothing but worse. 

Yet after discovering some new friends and having new found assimilations to his Ancestors' world, he discovered the secrets brought on by his family's homeland that rather should've remained buried. Secrets that had told him.

Life here on Black Elk Indian Reservation is never as it seems.

                                    ~·▪⚫▪·~

If there's one thing Aidan Thompson was, it was a nomad. Constantly wondering from place to place like a runaway despite his young age under the watchful eye of his new found guardian angel, in the form of a young and recently recruited Tribal Police Trainee. 

Though after befriending a unaccustomed Rylan
And forming a friendship with a similar group of outcasts, He thought life couldn't have become any better. 

But what happens when fragments of his bitter past eventually comes back to him?

Break Me & Remake Me by KaijuYardz

Aidan Crowley never planned on going back home. What for? To have his father spit in his face? To endure his sister's brooding glares? To face his ex-girlfriend and have to dig up some lame explanation for why he ran away? But when Lillian Crowley dies, Aidan finds himself drawn back in anyway. Just a simple visit to pay his respects - despite the dangerous waters and the sharks circling in the depths. And although the world he'd fled as a teen has changed in a lot of ways, much of it has stayed disappointingly the same. Enough so, it seems, as to bring out the worst in both Aidan and those he'd left behind. And then there's the matter of the seven sealed letters, and the warren of rabbit holes they open up beneath his feet. It's not long before Aidan is sinking, desperately struggling against chains of the past that he'd thought he'd cast off long ago, unable to break free until Lillian decides she's well and truly finished with him. He should have known: the heaviest steps a man can take are those that lead home. =============== SCHEDULE: New chapters every Mon/Wed/Fri until the story concludes in April. =============== Please COMMENT if you feel like it, I always love hearing what you think and what you predict might happen next. I also appreciate constructive feedback, if you have any, or you can DM that if you prefer. =============== CONTENT WARNING (mild spoilers): This story contains medium to heavy themes related to generational trauma and the kinds of things that tend to cause that. The characters are dealing with some serious issues, though none of it is presented gratuitously or explicitly. Despite the heavy themes, the general tone is positive and focuses on redemption and a brighter tomorrow. I won't leave you depressed at the end, I promise!

Chameleon ✔️ by CandaceMJ

I have three secrets. 1. I'm in the witness protection program. I witnessed my mother's murder when I was eight years old, and now the murderer is after me. 2. I can read minds. Or not "read" them... not exactly. But I can feel them. Every emotion has a color. An aura, as I call it. And I can feel those auras. I can feel the color of one's thoughts. 3. I can't feel Elijah Whitney's aura. [ COMPLETED - 1.28.16 ] [ LATEST REVISION - 8.17.19 ] [ SEQUEL COMING FALL 2019 ]

Coming of Age: The Journey of a Teenaged Drug Dealer by real_benjammin

Why do you pick fights with other boys? It's the question Ryan has been running from all his life. The answer will shock you. For as long as Ryan can remember, he's always wanted to be someone special. Now, a promising high school wrestler and a popular drug dealer, he's achieved the life he's dreamed of. He gets to go to all the fun parties, hang out with the cool kids, and be in a relationship with a beautiful girl who he loves. But Ryan's success is going to be bittersweet. A tragedy strikes someone close to him, creating a domino effect of self destruction. Ryan finds himself in a conflict where the repercussions threaten to destroy his life and potentially end it. Creeping in Ryan's thoughts is the source of his ambitions; a terrible secret he's unwilling to address. Go down the rabbit hole. Explore the fascinating chaos. You'll never forget what you read. Coming of Age is about the tragic experiences some teenagers go through and many others are aware of. The story explores themes like identity, ambition, love, trauma, forgiveness, free will, and redemption. Sensitive subject matter like drug addiction, extreme poverty, abuse, and violence are touched on, but in an honest, non-exploitative way. The story is based on my experiences as a teenager dealing mental health issues and the people I knew. Writing is my way to raise awareness of the issues I went through. I want to speak to people who can relate to my story and bring understanding to those that don't.
