Ever wanted to remember your name? Tried with every fiber of your being to search for that person you grew up as? The typical person would be able to find something. Some small thread of memory. SOMETHING to spark a feeling. Me? All I know is my name.

Phoenix Archer. The girl who was forced to be born from Embers. 

Many of you know how I came to be. Who I was before. But this is me after my shift. My first shift. And now, continuing with my new life. 

Let's see where it takes me.

"What do you mean, she doesn't remember anything?" My ears twitched at the rough sound of a male voice, quickly becoming agitated from the throbbing pain in my skull.

"Lucas, she has been shifting back in forth. We have no way of telling how she is going to cope with the constant change in instinct." The noises were extremely unpleasant, to the point of me wanting to cry.

"I JUST GOT HER BACK! I DID EVERYTHING THAT I COULD HAVE DONE!" There goes that voice again. I don't like it when he sounds so mad though. I'm just glad that I'm not on the receiving end of that, let me tell ya.

His tone switched in a split second, making me want to whimper at the pain I heard. "I wanted to do everything for her. Be exactly who she wanted me to be. I loved her, little did she know. I just want her to be okay.." 

That memory is the only one that I have. I don't remember when that happened, nor am I completely sure that I want too. Right now, I think I'll hide in that little black pit in the back of my sleepless mind.

Welcome to the life of.. well, I don't really know who I am anymore.

51 parts Complete

A genetically unique but emotionally lost teenager must figure out who she is within her mixed-up, warring world of Shifters and Wolfstalkers. ***** It wasn't Maddie's choice to be born a half-breed, half Shifter, half Wolfstalker -- a hunter of Shifters -- and it wasn't her choice to keep her identity a secret. But after trying to attend high school like any normal sixteen-year-old, things quickly spiral south when her Stalker uncle finds out about her and catapults her out of anonymity and into the awareness--or possibly the crosshairs--of The Order of the Wolfstalker. Maddie must think fast and figure out a way to keep herself and her family safe, or risk losing everything. Including her life. [[word count: 70,000-80,000 words]]
