On March 6th, 1836, The Alamo was taken by Antonio López de Santa Anna and his 1,800 soldiers. No one other than women, children, and William B. Travis's slave were left alive. This was one major step in Texas and American history to what we (Americans) have today.
~~~
This is a short story recalling bits and pieces of the historic event, with a little bit of my own twist. The characters will be reimagined into a Wings of Fire setting, so don't be confused when you start reading it. Just read the title. ^
Note~ Some quotes and scenes are used/heavily based off of the movie "The Alamo".

Perennials 2 - A Fighting Chance
"I want you, and only you. And if that makes me a cheater, a coward, or plain crazy, then so be it!" he said, with the same hint of something in his voice as his eyes gave away. She knew it now. It was revolt. "Oh, darling... " She took his face into her palms, meeting his gaze with compassion. "Then I guess we'll just be crazy together." ************************************************ 2022. As they are on the brink of experiencing a terrible car crash, LA surgeon Diego Perez and his wife Louise get sent back in time to the 19th century. It turns out that Diego has the ability to time-travel, and though he can not fully control it, this is not his first time doing it. But this is all new to Louise. The two get sent to the timeline of Diego's youth, three months after his mysterious disappearance when he was twenty years old. Now, at a much more mature age, but with a still youthful appearance thanks to a genetic anomaly, he is forced to take things up where he left them, with an upcoming wedding to his pregnant fiancée and much unresolved business as the town masked protector. But he has his modern-day wife with him, who has her own connections to this place and time, and things get more complicated by the day. Will he be able to figure out how to get his wife back home? Will their love endure the test of the time travel? Will they manage to navigate the rough waters of their existence in the 19th century? Word Count approx. 86000.

FIGHT OR FLIGHT - B. Bradshaw
C H A N C E: do (something) despite its being dangerous or of uncertain outcome "You walked out on me! No text, call, or letter! Nothing! I just woke up one day and you were gone!" Rooster yelled at her. She stood there in pain from just seeing him, Rosemary couldn't look at him without seeing her mistakes. "I didn't mean to hurt you... I-I just couldn't say goodbye because if I did I never would have left. I have 3 children now because of my sister's death. I wasn't going to drag you along with that. You were already set back so much from Maverick and the hatred you had towards him, was something I didn't want. If I held you back then you would have hated me too," a few tears rolled down her face as she looked at his shoes. She couldn't bare to look up at him. He shook his head as he exhaled out trying to calm down. "But I would have never hated you. I can't hate you. It bothers me that I haven't been able to hate you for walking out on me... and then you have to hide with all the pain... I just wished you told me," he told her and took a step closer. She had looked up at him and her heart shattered even more. The whole group was there watching there fight but didn't even have words for any of it. Phoenix was the only one who knew about everything. The kids, her sister, her parents, all of it. Pheonix had watched her break down over and over and over, but she didn't realize how much it might have hurt her to see the one person she had loved her whole life. "I'm sorry, Bradley but I have to go," she turned around and passed the whole group. She didn't bare to change in the lockers but headed straight to her car.

Ascension
There is no such thing as a good side and bad side in a war. We are both the good and bad side. It just depends on your perspective. At the end of the day when the sun goes down we are still the murderers who took the lives of hundreds and sometimes thousands. We are still the ones who have orphaned children. And you call us saints but no, soldiers are murderers who hide behind patriotism and lies. -Lorelei Jameson WARNING THIS IS A SEQUEL. Go read Journey before you read Ascension.

"Death, I think I could handle. It's the waiting that kills me." Humanity is no more. Struggling out of the rubble are the Lumière and the Fos, two races whose only edible source of food is the hearts of one another, and no matter how much they eat they're eternally hungry. Perhaps they were once the same-- brothers in humanity-- but now they're brothers in cannibalism. Though these monsters may look human, it's important to remember they are anything but. They are not alive, and they are definitely not human. Kai Chrysostom's brother, Ash, just died. He was the family's Sawney, the hunter of Fos: the one who went into the white plains just beyond the city walls to hunt Fos for food so his family could live. Most days, he would arrive home, place heart after heart on the dinner table and smile at his brother, whose constant twitching and childhood disease meant he could never kill a Fos himself. Now, the task falls to Kai. Considered by most to be disabled, Kai has no hunt training, a fear of death, and worse-- a fear of the past. A death. A journey. Eternal hunger. A hunt he never wanted to join. And love. A girl Fos who spares everyone except him, and takes pity on the poor fool as he literally faints at the sight of blood in front of her. A prison. A savior. A loss. More death. And the past that demands to be remembered. And, it's great-- you've sympathized with your only source of food-- but you're hungry. And, deep down, you know you must eat. ~~~ 45,205 words! Finished! Finally~!!Concluída

𝗜'𝗺 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲; 𝗮𝗺 𝗜? ❞ I stare out across the horizon, watching the nearly third quarter moon as its gentle light sweeps across the night sky; elegant swirls of cobalt clouds drifting amongst an endless sea of stars. My eyelids flutter shut. I breathe in deeply, bracing myself for what is to come. * ☾ * It feels like it was only yesterday that he was soaring across the rooftops of New York; his biggest secret yet - the one that seems to be at the center of all the unusual happenings shrouding this new part of his life - only distantly confusing him. But that was truly months ago. And before that fateful night was back when the youngest brother thought he knew exactly where he belonged, who (what?) he was, and who he would become. The voyagers have made it to the City of Light. But in order to stand a chance in completing the Prophecy of Kuda and defeating Jei once and for all, there is much more left to face. The journey that seems to have gone on for ages has only just begun. And he's never felt more alone. // EDITED description. May not fully align with current plot. \\ * ☾ * 🌑 🅣🅗🅔 🅦🅘🅝🅖🅔🅓 🅦🅐🅡🅡🅘🅞🅡 🅢🅐🅖🅐 🌑 ✸ Book 1: Autumn Wings (completed) ☾ Book 2: Winter Raven (completed) A/N (8/11/24): Hope/plan to someday rewrite these! These are the most original TMNT fics I ever wrote. For the several years since these were published, I've been world-building and developing this saga through art, soundtracks, and dozens of google docs. Once I get better - health-wise, writing-wise - I look forward to embarking on a new version of this journey with you all :)Concluída
