THIS STORY IS AN UNFINISHED PROJECT. I have no plans to finish it. 

After taking more than enough time on both of their parts to comprehend what ensued on the island, Jack and Ralph mistakenly befriend one another during Eucharistic Adoration. While shielding hidden fears and hormonal, fake feelings for one another; even the concept of love itself, they unknowingly begin the tedious process of learning how to love. Their constant inner schooling section ends quickly when the realization is made that a beast still lurks in the shadows... and it's creeping up on them by the second.

This story is an introduction to my Lord of the Flies au. [canceled]
It takes place in 1952, a Catholic school in the UK, with occasional flashbacks to the island.
I didn't live in 1952, obviously, so not a lot will be accurate. I have to go off google and instinct. Historical trauma may not be accurate to real history. I'm not making the "It's my au! It can be whatever I want!" excuse, it's just in means to help me write this. It's already difficult as is. This shouldn't be perfect, either. I wrote this for fun and for coping.

i started off drafting this as a gift for my (now EX) best friend, which is also symbolic for my feelings towards him/how he helped me learn how to love.
i portray myself in jack, i portray my bsf in ralph.

the island is symbolic for a time period in which i devoted myself to someone i shouldn't have. january-april was the time frame that ensued, so i used those dates as the duration the boys spent on the island. 
this isnt based on either film, just the novel and my own added scenes.All Rights Reserved

Jack: Book One in the Trilogy, the Battle Begins by gdorion

In Book 1, Jack conspires with friend Jeremy to undermine their racist, secessionist teacher's efforts to poison his students' minds with his benefits-of-slavery lectures. Will the students buy into it? Not if Jack has any say. The book is dedicated to my brother and to my old friend, Jack, the latter who, at 19, was killed speeding in his too-fast car, alone, in 1971. We met when I was a first grader at a Groton, Massachusetts parochial school. Jack was in second grade, I was in the first grade. One day Jack began teasing on the bus ride home so we got off at his bus stop to fight. I was little - he much bigger. He pinned me to the ground, forced me to quit. That kicked off our friendship that lasted years. Jack was a pitcher on the high school baseball team. He was so fast - somewhat wild. I was afraid to bat against him. He tried out for a professional farm team but didn't make it. He worked in the local factory and had no real career designs other than in sports which were the center of his life. Not long after his failed attempt(s) at major league baseball, he smashed into a tree at high speed on a quiet road early one morning. Jack had a 'hero complex' - needing to be the center of attention. He excelled at sports but wasn't interested in academics. He bet everything on his sports abilities that wowed neighborhood friends growing up. This story also is dedicated to both Jack and my brother, Paul, a friend of Jack's. Paul passed in January, 2016. I finally started Jack's story in 2000 when I began teaching in New York City. It dawned on me one day to transport Jack as a composite character - i.e., a character who has qualities and characteristics that Jack had but who also possessed ones he didn't have - into 1860's America. In the book, Jack becomes the hero - a status that mostly evaded him in real life. I think he would have been proud of the story. Many events are entirely fictional - some are not. All characters are fictional or partially so.

Harry Potter and the Lord of the Rings by redcloakjr

This story is using characters and places from both the Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings universes. If you know either 1 or neither of these stories this will probably not make any sense to you though you might still enjoy it. Further more please bare in mind my spelling punctuation and grammar is not the best so please excuse it. Finally if you enjoy it please let me know so I know to make more. For these stories I am not including 19 years later or by extention the curse child. I also tweaked some of the lord of the rings universe to suite the story. I don't have the time to list all of them but you should probably know the significant ones: Frodo was now 13 at the beginning of the events of the lord of the rings rather than 50 and he went to the undying lands when he was 14. Hobbits can now be of magical blood. Half-Blood, Pure-Blood, Muggle-Born and Squib. Sam, Merry, Pippin and Rosie are now all the same age as Frodo. Middle Earth is east of America and South West of UK. All people's of Middle Earth of magic born are sent to Hogwarts as geograficaly it is closest. Hobbits are slightly taller than they were before as otherwise it would be a little odd. And some other things I changed from Harry Potter are: Their is a wizarding university now. Harry and Frodo's parents were friends as they also went to hogwarts. Voldemort and Bellatrix were never a thing so no Delphini. Godric Gryffindor and Rowena Ravenclaw were a thing when they were alive. (significant later in the story) I also invented new characters for this story. I really hope you enjoy and I didn't bore you with this I just thought you ought to know.

Lonely Lost & Found by januarygloom__

DISCLAIMER: In almost ALL chapters- Self Harm, suicidal thoughts, mental illness, smut...If any of this bothers you, be careful reading it please. Alex, a lonely 17 year old with a heart problem and a lot of anxiety is hated by nearly everyone in his school. It was stupid, he knew that, but his anxiety and depression told him otherwise. Told him that he deserved to be hated, truly. He still longed for a friend though. He'd heard a rumor about some stupid party that any other time, he wouldn't be interested in. However, for the sake of at least attempting to find a friend, he went, and he didn't regret going when a nice black and blonde haired boy struck up a conversation, and life was a crazy roller coaster ever since with the future completely unknown. A/N; I don't own Jack or Alex or All Time Low or anyone affiliated, I just like to write stories and use their faces and bits of their personalities in these writings. This is entirely fictional and my own writing. I also don't know exactly where I'm taking this story, but I'll be thinking of new ideas as they come to me and writing them out. PLEASE send me suggestions and feedback!

Rebellion by mistyskeleton

I am a Rebel, they say. They're right. It all started when I was a young girl, my parents died in a fire, started by the King of our land. I was only 6 years of age, and I was left with a burn tracing up my arm and onto my collarbone. I was taken in by a woman I called 'Stepmother'. The King's actions caused my life, he's caused so much death. At least half the village has suffered because of him. I now fight against the King, and his daughter, I'm now a leader. There are so many others whom he has wronged. We used to be small group, but now we've grown in numbers. Millicent (though we call her Maleficent on accident) the Dragon Sorceress, Peter Pan the boy who can fly, Killian Hook the Pirate, Red Riding Hood the Wolf Slayer and Animal Tamer, Hansel and Gretel the Witch Hunters, Rumplestiltskin the Wizard, Blue the Fairy, Maethranal the Elven Queen, Jack the Giant Killer, Gothel the Witch, Merida the Archer, and Banshee, are the original people in our group who aren't dead. Gothel was being hunted by Hansel and Gretel at the time I met all three of them. Merida was adopted by Maethranal and trained as an Elven archer. Blue and Banshee are related by blood. Peter and Killian were enemies, but then banded together to stop Rumpelstiltskin, who later agreed to work with me. I love them like family, especially since my seven friends were killed. I miss them so much. They were my first friends, and helped me start this... rebel group. My husband contributed just as much as they did, and had the same fate. Eight people dead in one tiny little raid. I killed my stepmother, and use her riches to buy weapons for us all. We now hide in an abandoned castle in the middle of the dark forest, called 'The Red Tower', and is shrouded in fog and mist. Nobody would dare to look for us here because of all the dark creatures that guard the areas around. Red tames them all and converts them to our cause. 'Who am I?' you ask? Well, you may know me My name is Snow White

Home (Jack Kline x Reader) [[COMPLETE]] by ToHellWithReality

I'm back at it again with another Supernatural reader insert story. I just can't stray away from some good old Supernatural imagines! And Jack is just the cutest, most wholesome character. Love him to death. That being said, this will be fluffy, a little bit of angst, MAYBE a bit lemony. I just find it hard to write full-on smut about Jack. He's just an innocent lil bean. ANYWHO, here is the description. ------------------------------------------------- You'd felt like something was missing in your whole 21 years of existence. You were just an only child, living a normal life with your single mother. Eventually, she had fallen ill. She felt it appropriate to finally tell you about your absentee father whom you'd never met, on her deathbed. All she gave you was a name. "John Winchester". And a photo. Not long after she passed, you wasted no time in trying to find any information about your biological father. After all, you had nothing to lose, and no family left. After digging and digging for any details you could find on this man on the internet, you found phone numbers. You called a few, no answer at first. On the fifth call, someone finally answered. And you wanted answers. A few days later, you found yourself in Lebanon, Kansas, standing in front of some kind of bunker, and two older men. After that, the void you'd been feeling in your life would be filled with a world you'd never expected. And one person becomes the light in the darkness that is your life.

"We were holding hands and walking along the pier. Alec loved the peir and so do i. I wish I could bring Holland She loves it here. I cringed and pushed the thought away.

"Alec, these past 4 months with you have been the best of my life. You make me unbelieveably happy. You are amazing. Thank you for giving me a chance to realize that you are one of the best damn things in my life. I am so glad God gave me you." I said. He was looking dead into my eyes. "I love you." I said. Those 3 words I finally said. He opened his mouth to say something but his phone rang." ________________________________________________________ Alec Lightwood, Junior in highschool, Football quarter back, Girlfriend.

Happily Ever After-A Childhood Fairytale (Completed) by xHappilyEverAfterx

(7 years of age) I watched him from across the room, laughing at his friends jokes and at the clown. Being 10, he was going through the phase of thinking he was older than he actually was. Despite that, he was still a sweetheart. His black hair covered his forehead, and his eyes twinkled. I knew it then. I was in love. I was in love with Victor. (13 years of age) Standing beside his locker, surrounded by all the jocks and every single cheerleader or slut this school possessed, he couldn't have been more beautiful. Just as 3 years ago, i was captivated and couldn't find it in me to turn away from this beautiful, kind example of a human being. His black hair covered his forehead, and his eyes twinkled. I knew it then. I was in love. I was in love with Victor. (15 years of ages) I watched him leave. I watched him put his suitcases in for check in and i watched him pull his hood on top of his head. He looked sad, exactly what i felt. Standing there, watching him leave i knew he would always have a special place in my heart, whether it was 5 or 50 years from now. His black hair covered his forehead, and his eyes twinkled. I knew it then. I was in love. I was in love with Victor. Forever And Always. *************************** Chelsea's been in love with Victor for as long as she remembers. What will happen to her when the boy of her dreams has to finally leave for university? Will their love survive? Will it break? Join the love birds on their up's, down's, hello's and goodbye's.
