If you are reading this, then congratulations for making it to the team! However, to make it to graduation, you have to prove to that you are capable of following simple rules.
1. You have to attend classes every day and do as your trainer instructs you. Think of this as summer camp, only that you are assigned a handler.
2. Your current body is more durable but it's not an excuse to get into a fight! The chief role of the disciplinary committee is to solve disputes.
3. Two months to graduation, you have to submit a report about your experience here and who you wish to be in your next life...

When Andrea dies, she joins a couple hundred of other souls, the living dead, who have to earn their redemption so that they are once again sent to earth to lead a more righteous life than the previous one. The selection criteria is determined by the cause of one's death and age. Only those who are victims of accidents, acts of crime, natural disasters and sudden illnesses that last for less than a day make the cut. Also, one must be under the age of forty.
In the world of the living dead ( referred to as L.D) , there are a set of rules that one must abide by. Failure to do so, leads to detention and eventually addition of one's sentence by two years. For the next one year, Andrea must abide by these rules, known as the constitution, for the next twelve months and she will get to choose the life she desires on graduation day.
Before she met her death, during a tragic accident that claimed two lives, Andrea was a medical student and left behind Masani (a boy she was insanely in love with), kids she knew from foster care, and a couple of friends from her sorority. In L.D camp, she makes friends and meets Seepta, a boy with authority issues. The fantasy life, free from hunger, pain and bills, is not all roses. There are miserable lows and fascinating highs.

"It's beautiful" I sigh. "Yes it is" Blaze whispers next to me. I looked at him and saw he was just staring at me. "Why are you staring?" "Because it's a beautiful view" I lightly hit him and laugh. "I think I'm psychic" he blurts out. "Why?" I laugh at the randomness. "Because I can see you in my future" he laughs with me. "Is this a cheesiness competition?" I raise my eyebrow. "It wouldn't be a competition if I already won" "Cocky much?" "You love me though" "Nah" I laugh. "Let's start!" "Roses are red violets are blue, I can't rhyme but can I date you?" "No, but that was good" I admit and start thinking."Are you a magician? Because whenever I look at you everyone else disappears," I grin proudly. "Was your dad king for a day?" he starts. "No, why?" "He must have been to make a princess like you," he winks and I roll my eyes with a smile. I pretended to receive a call and he frowns at me. I put the phone down and pretend look worried. "Who was it?" he asks. "The cops, there was a theft" I say. "What? By who?" he looks really worried that I almost feel guilty. "I told them you stole my heart" I laugh and he just stares at me. "You got me but you know what? I'd never play hide and seek with you because someone like you is impossible to find" he smirks. "Fine, you won" I groan.

The Dark Witch: The Nox Haven Series
I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began. I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them. That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world. ... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all. ---------------------------------------------------------- Highest Rank: #2 in Paranormal 1st Place winner of The Night Shift's Killer Competition 4/10/16 Illustration by: Stephanie Pitino (www.ClairObscur.fr) (1st book in series)Complete
A Whole Different Life (Book I)
"What would you rather? Floating in eternal darkness or...serving me? As my champion?" "Honestly? Neither, why in the world would I choose to be a servant in my next life?!" "Hm, then I suppose-" "Wait, I wasn't finished." She let out a sigh, trepidation heavy in my mind. She's spent her entire life in a world that was 50/50 for her...school was rough but she had companions. Her home life was great but it had its ups and downs. She was beautiful! But...she didn't feel that way. Perhaps another life could give her that? A sense of renewal, a chance to be someone better and greater than the person she originally was. "But! I'll take the latter, I could use a change. A chance to be a different me is always appreciated. After all, it's not like I'm going to be a world-renowned hero right?" ___________ What happens when you die? Do you go to a religious after-life? Do you simply float in black nothingness or do you wake up in the body of another person? Well...for 17-year old Eos Theodoric, a girl who died in a tragic car accident, she knows the answer. Waking up in the body of an animal in service to an Animal Guardian who lives in a different world known as Balerion! Get ready for this one, a fantasy life isn't what it seems!

To the Ends of the Earth

Gabriel began life as an unwanted pregnancy. He wasn't given up for adoption or begrudgingly raised, he was aborted and tossed into a corner of the afterlife none of us will ever see, if we're lucky.

Fighting for the right to survive and learning how to navigate being alive aren't the biggest problems he has to face; there's also a soulmate he intends to claim, a universe he has to travel, and a life he means to take back no matter what he has to do. When is crazy a problem? For Lilly, she's always just assumed she was a bit of a functioning lunatic. What else would you call obsessive (and newly lucid) dreams about a guy you don't even know, a gaping hole in your heart for said guy, and a surety that he's meant to complete you in life? When Lilly finally decides to do something about it, a bevy of supernatural occurrences might just push her over the edge. Not that she'll let that stop her from trying bring the boy she loves home to her... even if it costs both of them their very souls. *** There is some foul language in this story as well as adult themes.
