And where will this path lead?

Where the Blossoms fall-AIB
In a world caught between life and death, some lights burn quietly - and some are snuffed out before the world ever sees their full blaze. Nisari Danma was a spark in a grey and crumbling world: bright, gentle, stubbornly kind. In the chaos of the Borderlands - a place where games determine survival and loyalty is a currency few can afford - she carved out a fragile sanctuary alongside two unlikely guardians: Takeru, the dreamer who believed in freedom, and Aguni, the soldier who fought to protect it. Together, they built something that almost felt like a family. But the Borderlands are no place for innocence to survive unscathed. And behind every act of kindness, there are shadows gathering - old wounds, broken bonds, and memories that refuse to stay buried. Nisari's story is one of hope and heartbreak, of dreams that grow even in hostile soil, and of the thorns that inevitably find their way back to every rose. It is the story of a girl who believed in light until the very end - and of those left behind, trying to remember what it felt like to be whole. Some flowers bloom. Some wither unseen. Some are remembered in the falling of cherry blossoms, and in the spaces between breaths. In the Borderlands, memory is a fragile thing. But some souls are too bright to be forgotten.Complete

♤♧♢♡ The sky, which had been bathed in a soft red, had to be an indication that this was a real world, after all there was a sun and a moon, as well as stars. Was I still on Earth then? Or were there other planets that had the same orbit? What should I do now? Should I wait for something to happen? Would that eventually wake me up? Or should I keep moving to find an answer? Questions upon questions, but no answers. A lump formed in my throat, and I had to swallow it. The sour aftertaste remained. The nausea had been with me all afternoon and didn't seem to let go of me even now, even though I had already eaten and drunk something. I turned away from the window and stared at the photo wall that Mom had put up for us on my fourteenth birthday. It was filled with memories of everything I never wanted to forget. I wanted more photos to be added, after all, my story was far from over. But would I ever go back to fulfill that wish? Now, I didn't believe such a reunion would happen. ♤♧♢♡ Based on the Alice in Borderland series by Netflix and the manga series by Haro Aso. This is a slow burn fanfiction. The story contains violence, inappropriate language and sexual themes - read at your own risk. This story is written in the first person narrative! There will be an open-ending!

Ari and Zac
Ari Callahan has no idea how to talk to boys -- or how to talk to anyone for that matter. Enter Zac, the cute new guy in town who won't stop texting her. But is his interest real, or does he have a hidden agenda? ***** Found as a young child washed up on the beach, 17-year-old Ari Callahan has never uttered a word out loud to anyone -- not even her adoptive family. Psychologists have diagnosed her with a condition called selective mutism, but Ari can't help identifying with her namesake character, Ariel, the little mermaid in the fairytale whose voice was stolen by a sea witch. Mermaid-obsession aside, Ari's silence makes socializing tough. She's never had a boyfriend or been asked out on a date. Not until Zac, the confident new arrival in town, asks for her number. But Zac has his own reasons for texting with Ari. He's part of a movement to sabotage the artificial music app called SirenSong, threatening to render human singing obsolete. Zac's collaborators have scoured the globe in search of a singing voice perfect enough to break the SirenSong spell, and their search has led them straight to Ari's beachside town. Will her relationship with Zac help Ari find her voice and unlock the secrets of her origins? Or will he use her and leave her high and dry? Title: Ari and Zac (formerly The Mermaid Hypothesis) Content Warning: This story contains references to selective mutism, suicidal thoughts, and early childhood trauma.Complete
𝐒𝐖𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍 - aib, chishiya
For 𝐘𝐔𝐙𝐔𝐊𝐈 𝐁𝐀𝐘𝐀, all worlds contain dangerous elements- though she might even be safer in the Borderlands; the laws she broke don't apply here. 𝐒𝐇𝐔𝐍𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐎̄ 𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐘𝐀 knows about her actions all too well. He's not interested in redemption, yet something about her piques his curiosity. Perhaps the fact that her illegal activities affected him on a daily basis. Once they enter the Borderlands, they pretend not to know each other. But both of them are always keeping a sharp eye out. Waiting for the other to crack. Waiting, maybe, for the moment they lose a game. 𝐒𝐖𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍 - a vision seen in sleep; a dream Chishiya x OC Alice In BorderlandComplete

↳ ❝ to my silent saviour, who made life worth living even if it wasn't supposed to be. ❞ ☆ ──꒰ 🂱 ꒱ ❞ ‧₊˚ RIORU MURAKAMI was a thief in every world she touched. It began with food, coins, and clothes-whatever it took to survive. But in the Borderlands, such things held no value. So she learned to steal what did: hearts, breaths, lives. KARUBE DAIKICHI was anything but. He valued friendship, loyalty, and honest hearts. But in the Borderlands those qualities can only get you hurt, and slowly he began to understand the girl who refused to feel any of them. daikichi karube x oc ─── season 1-2

An invisible thread, unseen and unspoken, tugged at something deep within 𝐒𝐚𝐤𝐮𝐫𝐚 𝐊𝐨𝐤𝐨𝐫𝐨. It wasn't love, not yet. It was a recognition, a profound sense of familiarity in an Alien world. 𝐒𝐡𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐫ō 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐲𝐚 for his part, felt it too. A curious pull towards the girl who fought so fiercely against the very instincts that kept them both alive. He, who felt nothing, found himself drawn to her raw, unmasked humanity, even as she tried to bury it. He, who understood logic, found himself intrigued by the illogical current that now flowed between them. [Alice in Borderland S1-2] [Shuntaro Chishiya x OC]
The Dark Ages: Convergence (Prequel to the P.O.E. Chronicles)
*This story is the prequel to the P.O.E. Chronicles and will reveal some mystery in the novel (think Star Wars). If you want to read chronologically, go ahead, otherwise, read Evolution first* Before there was peace, there was chaos. Before there were Citybases, there were Ruins. Before there was UGE, there were remnant governments, each with their own agenda. Before there were P.O.E.s, there were rogue mutants with no disciple or training. But in chaos, order will converge. And in darkness, light will emerge. All Akram ever knew was the darkened streets of the ruin that was London, all he knew was to stay hidden, scavenge things and trust no one. His grandfather loved to tell him of The Time that Had Been, where food was abundant and strangers kind to each other. When his sister was kidnapped and found, the truth behind her abduction set off a chain of events that had him running to Paris in hope of finding his estranged family with a girl and powers beyond what he could comprehend. Little did he know that it was only the beginning of his story, the story of the Originals. Cover: @Kitkattish *I have made a few changes in the published version of the Evolution, which resulted in some deviation from the first draft I posted on Wattpad.*Complete
