*This manuscript was recently found in a locked vault likely in the Carson City area, and purports to be a second collaboration between Mark Twain and Bret Harte. There are a number of ways it might be used... likely as a mystery research item, or having your students brainstorm an ending or next passage of the story. It is written in the style of Mark Twain, and is a substantive taste of life during the "California Gold Rush" period. [*Slightly embellished.] "Aids Orphans Remembered"

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book.

Rise of the ancient god: Reborn of chaos.
The God of Chaos was feared and worshiped in equal measure-a being of boundless destruction who stood alone against the apocalyptic invaders from another universe. But even gods fall. Betrayed and torn apart, he met his end in a war he could not win. Yet death was not the end. Reincarnated as Carson, a powerless boy in a world where humanity evolves beyond its limits, he is nothing but a fragile existence, mocked and discarded. No strength, no abilities-just a weak body destined to be crushed under the weight of a merciless world. Then came the spider. Venom burned through his veins, dragging him toward oblivion. As the last flicker of life began to fade, a voice-cold and divine-whispered into the void: [Ding!] [Congratulations. You have been chosen as the inheritor of the previous master's legacy.] [Will you accept? (Yes/No)] With that choice, the abyss awakened within him. The power of an ancient god stirs once more, but it is twisted, corrupted hungering for vengeance. The world that cast him aside will soon remember the name they tried to erase. And this time, chaos will reign. ----- (A/N: If you notice any errors, broken contents while reading please let me know, I'll go back and make the necessary corrections.)

The Prides of Evergreen: The Moose of Iceback Ridge
a transcription of a story i wrote in 5th grade, from an old notebook thats falling apart. the shower thought turned ambitious murder mystery xenofiction that spawned my current story, The Wolves of Evergreen just so you know, it is fairly directionless and will end in the middle of a sentence, but i still think its really cool and genuinely love the worldbuilding. i will likely incorporate some aspects of this such as the underground tunnels into TWoE Vocabulary: Hoopine - Deputy (like warrior cats) Nata - Healer Penglai - Guard. there are two per Pride Tabul - Apprentice (warrior cats) Neful - i think this is basically younger than tabul-age? Cetere - adult member of a Pride Naffe - sunbaked meat patty Kantash Strand - a grass strand in a woven bracelet, awarded for certain accomplishments. the more strands one has, the higher their rank Scataray - pickaxe Timays - idk i think its like dumplings or something i dont rememberComplete
