Diallo is poor but gifted with the ability to tell great lies. After a bad afternoon with his friend Paul in which he nearly ends up in jail, the pair rely on fate to change their lives. "Let's play it with a coin!" He says. "Flip a coin. Face: our stories are put on Wattpad; tail: you'll be in jail by the age of twenty one. At the same age, I'll most likely die of an overdose."

The Supposed Terrorist by WiredUp007

My trial in court was going on and all the evidence pointed toward my crimes. It was a really pointless proceeding. Everyone knew I had committed those sins against the nation. You know, the usual- mass killings, bombings, and all. I felt a bit sad as I heard the sentence of my death. 23 felt no age to die. "The court is adjourned-" The judge was saying when he got cut off by someone's frantic yells. The doors to the courtroom bang opened and a man entered with urgency. He had some papers in his hands and started waving them in the air. "I CAN PROVE HER INNOCENCE, I CAN. I HAVE EVIDENCE!" His voice rang in the room. I stared. ___________________________________________ Rico Wayland is someone completely abnormal for her age. After all, being convicted for terrorist activities isn't at the top of the to-do list of a 23 year old young woman. But, of course, she has landed herself in that situation. And she is completely aware that she has, in fact, committed those crimes. But what will she do when a man (who she has know clue about) claims to her innocence? How will she discover the thin fine line between reality and illusion?

With the passing of her only friend, she's given more than she bargained for when the estranged and mysterious Lee Noble enters her life.

With seven days to escape the consequences of the deity's contract, Olivia's humanity is on a perilous countdown. Otis promises her the world if she can hold out- while Lee will sacrifice anything to see her gone.
