A story about childhood fears, societal expectations and isolation - things that could turn an ordinary young woman into a witch...
"In the autumn of 1961, Hallow's Eve held a special promise for me, because I had recently discovered that Didsbury was home to a witch. She was an absolute gem of a witch - cut-glass cheekbones, raven tresses, laced up boots and every single garment I ever saw her in was black. She wore a regular pill box hat, but I saw through this disguise: I knew she had a pointy one in her wardrobe for special occasions. I was nine years old."

The Devil's Daughter (Short Story) Editing
#45 in teenagegirl 12/30/19 #8 in teenagegirl 12/31/19 Zo Jones thought she had a normal, teenage life: she graduated high school and is now doing her 2nd year in college with her high school friends, that is until her 19th birthday. Since that day, nothing has been the same. Will November 1st ever be a normal day for her? Excerpt: When he finally came through the door, the first thing I noticed about him was his eyes. They were extremely dark contrasting with his light skin. He also had dark, raven hair that went onto his shoulders with black swirl-like tattoos peeking out from his shirt. But the thing that got me all the way creeped out was his facial expression, as if he was expecting something major to happen. "Ahhhhh shit!" Two voices said in my head. "What the hell?" I thought. 'Oh yeah, we didn't introduce ourselves. I'm Grayson, and the other annoying ass voice in your head is Dominic. We're both your guardian demons!' He exclaimed. 'Oh yeah, I forgot about them.' "Hey!" Both of their voices exclaimed. Snickering in my head, I finally ask them what's wrong since they were shocked when the doctor came in. "He's someone you don't want to be near. You thought demons were dangerous, ohh he's far worse. Us demons are just lapdogs for the devil. But him? He doesn't take orders from anyone." "Do you guys mind stepping out while I examine Zo? It'll be awhile plus I need a little...privacy." The doctor says with a smirk. My parents say sure and drag my siblings out while I plead them to stay with my eyes. "Oh what a lovely surprise I have here." Like my guardian demons both said, "ahhh shit!"

In Her Shoes
Then, something strange happened in that moment. Her face changed -- no that's not quite the word; it flickered, her blonde hair turned to blonde and matted dread locks with particles and ornaments weaved within them. Her nose nearly outgrew her own face and was covered in disgusting toad-like warts. The top of her black hood suddenly pointed even more and looked like a pointed black hat. I almost screamed. She was so ugly.... Jesse was your typical high school jock. Star quarterback, flawless record, chicks at his feet and a dad with so much money he could about buy the world. Oh yea. Jesse is a king. That is until a mysterious "witch" comes to the school and teaches him not to judge or be rude to another being again, unless He's walked a mile in her. .... shoes?مكتمِلة

Magical Love: Short story (ENGLISH)
Synopsis: Zerhica grew up in a wealthy household where comfort was never a concern, but love and recognition always were. Despite having everything she could possibly need, all she ever longed for was her parents' approval. Constantly overshadowed by her two older sisters-both admired for their beauty and talent-Zerhica was always seen as the least impressive, the last choice in a family obsessed with perfection. Desperate to be seen and valued, she spent her life trying to please everyone around her, giving endlessly until she had nothing left to give. By the time she realized her worth had been stripped away piece by piece, it was already too late. Then one day, Zerhica wakes up and finds herself back in the past-staring at her 17-year-old reflection in the mirror, in the very room she once called home. Armed with memories of the future she once lived and the tragedy that followed, Zerhica is given a second chance. But changing fate is never simple. Will she be able to rewrite her cruel destiny, or is history destined to repeat itself no matter what she does? And as she begins to alter the course of her life, a mysterious man named Miharo appears-someone she has never met before, someone who was never part of her past life. His presence becomes a turning point she never anticipated, intertwining his fate with hers in ways she cannot yet understand. Will this second chance lead Zerhica toward salvation... or a different kind of ruin? *** Language: English Inspired by the novel: Rebirth of Fa Wei Lan by HARUI30 Book cover art from: the manga 'yi chui wu yue tiao man ji'مكتمِلة
All Hallow's Eve | Aarmau AU | Halloween Special 2018
First EVER completed story! Completed: November 7, 2018 Ω Ω Ω All Hallows' Eve began a millennia ago, when the seal between the living and the dead broke. The dead began to walk among us, seeking revenge against those who wronged them or even came close. Then, in rage they lashed out at innocents - children, too. The Phoenix coven - a group of witches native to a location in Ru'an that would soon be known as Phoenix Drop - created a new seal, but this being man made it had weak spots. They focused said weakness on one day of the year, where it would thin enough for travel between. However, the coven also set a law bound by nature that said evil spirits cannot enter land claimed by the living (such as homes). This kept them away, but on ground between they can do as much damage as they could have without the seal to people and life around them. So, people began leaving sweets, food, and gifts on their doorsteps. Soul cakes were given to the homeless to keep them in high spirits and to give to demons nearby if needed. The givings sated the spirits and they left the living be. That is, most of them. Ω Ω Ω Ω Ω Ω Inspired by and based on the true origins of Halloween. Words total: 23,147.مكتمِلة
