The Volition by whoaitskara

Real life, people don't just get everything and sometimes when they do get everything it's not what they needed at all. So what's better? To have it all? Or to have nothing but a dream?

Finding You by ccstoriess

Rolford Town. A place I never heard of until the day we packed up and left everything behind. They said it was for a fresh start, but I knew better. You can't outrun ghosts; they cling to you, no matter how far you go. It started off quietly, just like every other town. There was hope for a peaceful life. But it was all a delusion. A naive delusion. At first, I thought it was just the move, just the adjustment. But then things started to change. I changed. It was like this place knew my secrets, knew my fears, and it fed on them. It wasn't long before everything I held onto started slipping away again. Every fragile bits of normalcy I had managed to piece together after that happened. Everything around began to crumble, faster than I could grasp. It felt like the town was swallowing me whole, dragging me into some dark, twisted underworld where nothing made sense. The wounds I tried so hard to patch up were only ripped wider, and deeper by this disgusting place and its people. And yet, I didn't run away. I couldn't. I couldn't when I found you. The you everyone warned me about. The you who was just like me, or so they said - aggressive, intimidating. I was drawn to you, maybe because I saw my own shattered pieces reflected in your eyes. We were both drowning, but somehow, being around you felt like I was breathing again, even if it was just for a moment. But even that.. even that was twisted here. I couldn't leave. Not now. Not when there was still something, or someone, worth fighting for. My brother needed me, even if he didn't know it. And you.. there was something about you that I can't let go. Maybe together we can find a way out of this darkness, break free from whatever curse this town held.

All that is Darkness by LindsayBrambles

To her mother she has always been Chloe, but to the rest of the world she has had many names. Her life is a fiction, like the stories in a book, changing from place to place, village to village, town to town, from one end of Haven to the other. It has been that way ever since she can remember: a life of secrets, constantly on the run, fleeing the mysteries of her mother's past. But now things are changing. She is changing. The world she thought she knew is a tissue of lies. Things are happening that she cannot explain: troubling dreams and nightmares that seem no less real than life itself. And as the truth about her mother begins to unfold, Chloe finds herself caught up in a web of intrigue and deceit that reaches back to before the founding of Haven, when plans were put in motion that would determine her future and set her on a path to places beyond her imagining. Questions mount, and answers remain elusive. And when a decades old book that maintains the world is not the way it's supposed to be comes into her possession, Chloe is in for the shock of her life. The deeper she digs, the more terrifying the truth, until at last she must confront the possibility that in a world where to be human is to be one of a tiny minority, she may not even be that. She may be something else. Someone else. And the only place she may be safe is in her other life.
