Forever his cold hand would slap me, and I realized with a chill that forever, I would run. 

"-And after the destruction of our world, our home- we stand together. We unite in the sorrows of our lost world and we find comfort in our new one."
I know I will never be picked to be tested. I cannot be picked. I will return home. 
 "Go, Gale, It'll be fine." My legs began to move without my permission, leading me away from my friends and up the stairs of the platform, to stand next to my father. To stand where Orsella had just died. The crowd applauded wearily as they did every year, but today I did not clap with them."
But now I am here. And there is no going back. This test is not what I thought it was. 
 "You will be taking a test today," he informed us. I furrowed my eyebrows, waiting for him to explain. "It will not be on paper." My heart seemed to plummet in my chest as an eerie feeling pumped through my veins. "There are 24 of you here today." He smiled, looking straight into my wide eyes.
	"By the time we're done, there will only be one."

Six months went by before the government, that was un-tainted by this vile race began to take action into their own hands contacting other countries and militaries causing the great war to happen, sending both my parents off to fight for our rights. Only one of them came back, two months was the longest we lasted before we were overpowered by them. Six years of living in this dysfunctional environment and my hatred had never dwindled. Some people still believed in god and had faith in him, I didn't know what I believed in but I prayed like everyone else that I would get through another day without hearing the soul crushing word 'Mate'.

"I gave you a chance to leave and never come back, why didn't you take it?" I looked into those deep grey eyes that I fell for. "Because I wouldn't have my wife sitting right next to me on that train ride." I answered truthfully. ☔︎☔︎☔︎ He has never met someone as mean as her. The glare on her face almost seemed permanent. The only words that fall out of her mouth are ones that will leave you tarnished and torn, making you second guess where you went wrong. Even worse, she never spoke, more like she grunted responses. When he first laid eyes on her, he fell in love with her tattoos, her attitude, her charm. He didn't understand why he kept coming back? He was intrigued with her. No matter what she said or did to him, he kept coming back. He was impatient but would wait for her. . . . She never understood how someone could keep a smile on their face everyday. The way he always kept a positive look on life. He never frowned. He was the flavour bubblegum that everyone wanted. The go-to ice cream flavour that you always get on a sunny day. That one summer vacation that you'll never forget. She hated his smile, his laugh, his eyes. She hated that she wanted to see that smile everyday. She hated that she couldn't stay away from him. She would happily set the world on fire but never let a flame touch him. ☔︎☔︎☔︎ All Rights Reserved 2022Ⓒsyriacax

NEW UPDATED EDITTED VERSION ON MY PROFILE!!!! THIS IS A FIRST DRAFT, OFFICIAL EDITTED VERSION IS BEING PUBLISHED UNDER THE OTHER HER ONLY CHANCE!!!!!! Where trust is the thing you cannot rely on, who can you trust? ____________________________________________________ What I went through . . . I couldn't wish that upon anyone. It wasn't just horrific, it was everything. I walked through death, walked through heartbreak, I walked through betrayal, I walked through a city of ruins, I walked through unimaginable tests. I survived against things you wouldn't even want to know. Things you couldn't even conjure up with your imagination. But I still did. But you want to know the worst of it all? I only had one chance. ____________________________________________________ Where nations are now out of control with the sudden rise of population and the demand of essential items and access to shelter, the government needed to take back control of society. So all the major powers of the world joined together and after a long ten decades of suffering, came to a conclusion; Resdue. Which was basically an acronym of saying 'death test'. Two students from each individual high school in either grade eleven or twelve would be chosen by the principle and teaching committee to be sent to the Resdue Test. You were supposed to rely on your partner and was forced to as if one partner were to die, you would join them in death. But when Bryce Henson is chosen from her school, she can only hope she can survive the first test.
Finding Yasmine by thatyorubagyal

Yasmine is a star girl, with plans for the future, good grades and a boyfriend to top it up but how can she survive when her enemies are her family, a menacing father willing to give her out without a second thought, a step mother cruel enough to be Shaytan himself and a step sister who's jealousy burns from within, a drive that's enough to kill a person. As her world comes crumbling down, will she crumble with it or stand in the midst of the rumble. _________ I'm not going to cry I'm not going to cry I'm not going to cry He chuckled wickedly as Hauwa stoked his hand tenderly. 'At first it was about your virginity but you were stubborn so I took it slow, till I got what I wanted' he said, his eyes void of emotion. 'Turns out you're easy and a slut at that' he completed as Hauwa laughed heartily. Tears fell from my eyes freely, like a waterfall, like dew on the desert. I swallowed to ease my parched throat as I bit my lips trying not to scream. My breath was becoming uneven as I strode to where he stood and slapped him across the face with all the anger, the sorrows and frustration that were bottled up on me. 'You disgust me' I managed to say as tears started to blur my vision and for a second I saw hurt in his eyes or maybe I assumed it. I ran, bumping into tables, chairs and people, I didn't care. Ammi always told me there was a thin line between love and hate and I had crossed that line today with Sadiq', the one that wiped away my tears and told me it was going to be fine, my calm after the storm was actually my enemy in disguise. Shit!!! When it rains it fucking pours. ____________ Will she loose herself or find love in the most unexpected place?

Third, after my first impression of you, I don't like you... Now if you'd excuse me, my friend is about to put on a show, and I want to be there when it starts. I'll see you outside Zac." I say and smile really sweetly at him as I walk out. He stood there in shock. His expression was priceless. I mean, someone needed to do it.
