Inspired by Ray Bradbury's book, Fahrenheit 451. This book tells the story of a girl who views the world differently from the many people in her society. Her thoughts, opinions, and actions could someday get her into serious trouble but for now she needs to focus on surviving. This book tells the life of this girl. There are two alternate endings for this girl. You can decide the one you may think that suits her the most.
I was doing an assignment as I was reading Fahrenheit 451. The idea of this story came into my head and hadn't left me alone. So I decided to make this story. This is the first story I've ever posted here on Wattpad! The cover does not belong to me but the original owner. I hope you all enjoy.

The Island
"This is The Island, a prison designed for minors like me- too young to be executed, too old to be reformed, and too much of a stain on humanity to let exist. It was 'the answer' to the growing crime rate resulting from a world that was falling apart. The details evade me, but there is one thing I know. The water doesn't seem as scary as it did before." When Jordyn wakes up in the middle of a tropical forest in the mouth of a cat too big to be real, she decides this isn't how she wants to die. The Island has other plans, though. It was designed to kill her, and it will bring out every gun in the arsenal to do so. Her life becomes a game of survival from the mutant and venomous animals, severe temperature changes, and impossible weather scenarios that exist in this government manufactured prison. The twist? She has no idea who she is, where she came from, or why she committed first-degree arson. In this mixture of "The Hunger Games" and "Maze Runner", Jordyn has to unravel the truth before nature kills her- or die not knowing.

Forever Knight
This short story is the product of a lost bet. A friend challenged me to write it and we both enjoyed it enough that I wanted to share it with all of you on WattPad. It's fun and frivolous and my first attempt at writing futuristic dystopian. The United States and its Government have fallen apart and it's up to the country's citizens to find a way to carry on. In a small, central Pennyslvania, river town a group of people have carved out a stable existence under the leadership of their Governor and his volunteer militia - the Royal Order of Knights. The only problem? Governor Kramm's daughter. Charli grew up watching (and falling in love with) her best friend as he trained to become an honored Knight and her dream has always been to be one of them. However, her father's current laws won't allow women to serve. When their community falls under attack and she risks her own life to save her father's, will it be her final sacrifice or her proving grounds?Complete
The Rain (Part III of the Runner Series)
The conclusion of The Runner series. ================================== Half a year has passed since the fall of Babel. In that time, tales of the Runner have drifted from truth into legend. There are stories of a thief who toppled an empire, whispers about a hero who sacrificed everything to free us from the iron grip of a madwoman. They say that the Runner is broken. They say that she is fearless. They say that no enemy stands a chance against her unstoppable army of warriors. They say that she fights because her veins run red with rebellion, but I know better. She fights because she has nothing left to lose.Complete

BOI i was like twelve when i wrote this and it's so cringy looking back at it, i apologize in advANCE IF YOU ARE STARTING THIS ITS JUST SO CRINGE --------- it has been brought up to my attention about the new Wattpad guidelines. I will write it in here and the chapters that feature some obscure/unhealthy actions, as trigger warnings. I do not condone nor want to glorify any events that happen in this book or any other of my books, so please do not believe I think it's okay. It's not okay. As a person who has been through depression and so forth, I am here for those who want to talk about it. There are also multiple online references/resources, if you are uncomfortable with discussing what is wrong. It's alright and there is help you can seek in multiple forms. Please be safe and remember that nothing can destroy what you have in your heart. You are special and I love you. There are multiple trigger warnings (self-harm, depression, abuse from others) in this story. Thank you for reading this. xx Description: Two worlds colliding. Is that what this would be called, or was it fate? Whatever this was defined as, it definitely changed multitudinous lives. Tabitha Ellis, a fourteen year old girl, has moved all the way from Melbourne, Australia (or wherever you want her to live, this is a fanfiction, but that was where I felt it was right), to LA. One of her first adventures here, was to visit the beach - and, so she did! But not without having an encounter with the one and only; Trevor Moran. One fall could be the cause of a huge mess of massive proportions, positive and negative. Is always going to last forever.... or will something, perhaps someone, get in the way of that?Complete
Live Wired (on indefinite hold)

On the outside, only death awaits thanks to heat so scorching it burns you alive, and cold so chilling, it freezes your retinas in under half a minute. Erin Watts is a 15-year-old human living in the slums of Designated Area No.6. He attends the prestigious Arlington School of Servitude and wants nothing more than having a bright future. Unfortunately, things aren't going his way as of late. His mother, a syred human, is sick and about to die. When she bites the dust, her protection from being syred to an Eldritch master will die with her, leaving Erin unprotected. His school is also starting to suspect he might not come from a wealthy background. And, to top it all off, his Eldritch neighbor wants to rape him and torture him to death. Could it get any worse for him? What can Erin do? How far will he go before he breaks down? Can he beat the system? Find out in this story about oppression, desperation, violence, and a pair of crazy girls. Disclaimer: The girls in this story are not the cliche mindless and submissive Daisies you find around Wattpad. If you are into that, then don't let the door hit you and leave. It also won't have your cliche yanderes.Complete

Snow
After an apocalyptic event that thrusts the world into a new ice age, Calestia - a 17-year-old girl with a strong will - must learn to survive on a land infested with gangs, guns, and distrust. ***** Nobody knows what day it is anymore. Nobody knows the month, the day of the week...and the only way to tell time is by the slight change in the color of the sky from grey to black every twenty-four hours. If a day even is twenty-four hours anymore. The planet is dead. The people are dead. Snow falls down upon piles of bodies like the ash of a volcanic eruption. Except, the snow doesn't stop. It never does. It continues to fall and fall until you wonder if it is even possible for another flake to come down and land silently in your hair. But it does. They do. There are few survivors of what the remaining have started to call the end of the world. The Apocalypse. Few who are still brave or scared of death enough to face the torture that is living. I am one of those survivors. Book One of the Snow Series Highest ranking: #3 in Sci-Fi Watty's ShortlistedComplete
The Boy in the Gray Hoodie
I was never meant to leave that room. I had spent my whole life in there, imagining what it was like on the outside. I looked forward to the day when I would finally be allowed to leave. But that day was never supposed to come. Until James decided to keep his promise. He had always been there, on the other side of the glass. Waiting. The experiment wasn't over. He was still waiting for me to change. But I didn't change. Not until that night. It was dark, and there was rain. The sound of the car engine was loud, but the crash was louder. In the crash, I became something different. I changed. But not for James. This new part of me emerged for one reason; to save her. This story is a first draft and will contain typos and grammatical errors. I apologize for these in advance, and hope you can see beyond them to the story beneath. Happy reading!Complete
Storm Of Pain
Have you ever seen your life flash before your eyes?

I risk my life on a daily bases saving others, strangers, kids, families, anyone my team and I can help ranging from terrorist attacks to bombs to pretty much anything. The training that I received a few years ago allows me to do that, it allows me to be the best person that I can be, if I could go back to the day I joined the military I wouldn't change a single thing; the only thing I would've changed in my journey is to have looked after her better. To have kept her safe. But life had other plans with both of us... ***** All ideas in this book are thought of by me. Nothing has been based of another book.
