People always say that if you stare into the void, the void will stare back. But what if that was the truth? What if the Void knew that you were staring? What happens to the people who do see it staring back at them? The answer is simpler than you might think. They go Mad. But Madness is a general state of normal in the New World. And insanity comes with new abilities, like some have never seen before.
But what if you look into the Void, and you never see anything? What happens to the unfortunate few that stare for years, and never feel a response? This is what happens to Franklin.
And it's enough to make him go insane.

The Gift
I ducked my head, thinking about the risk I was about to take. I was breathing quickly. I looked around, making sure people weren't around--and jumped and ran. I refused to use my powers, because I knew it would end in disaster... The bullets flew around me, so close to me I knew it was just a matter of time before it hit me.

Alexia Lambre, Teenage Telekinetic: The School
Alexia Lambre had never been a truly 'normal' girl, because she had always had the added 'bonus' of telekinesis. At least, some might call it a bonus. Alexia would call it a curse, because throughout her entire life she worried about someone finding out about it and taking her away. Someone did find out about it, but not the government like she assumed would happen. She was soon offered a place at what was called 'The School,' a place for people like her to learn about their powers. When she arrived though, she learned otherwise. She makes friends with the other kids, and they all join up against the scientists at the school, those that like to do tests and even experiments on them. Will the group ever escape the school? Or will the appearance of a new teen and 'experiment C' do them in?Complete

I am working on rewriting this story and when I do there will be the trigger warnings in the correct places.) (small teaser.) No one sees me. I am a ghost. I brush against the wooden fence. No one will believe it was me who disappeared into a fence and appeared on the other side of school. I stare at my brother. He made eye contact with me, confirming my suspicions. We both saw it.

𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐃𝐄𝐀𝐃 𝐎𝐑 𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐕𝐄 ➢ ᴇᴅᴅɪᴇ ᴍᴜɴꜱᴏɴ
** COMPLETED FOR NOW ** The existence of another dimension filled with monsters underneath the small town of Hawkins, Indiana, never came close to crossing the mind of Jeanette Bingham. And Jeanette was big fan of anything fantasy related and just anything that seemed out of the this world, but that was one of the last things she'd ever think of. That was until the summer of 1985 when she thought she was just having fun at her summer job scooping ice cream with a couple new friends of hers before discovering that Russian scientists are trying to reopen a door to another dimension called "The Upside Down". Not to mention finding out about a girl with super powers. Now it's the start of spring break of 1986 and Jeanette stuck by the friends she made during the horrors of Starcourt Mall. People are still mentally recovering from the losses, while others are mentally fighting. The group being the only people who knows the truth of what happened, are doing their best to move on and have normal lives. Maybe what Jeanette needs is to fall in love with a DnD playing, rock obsessed, drug dealer named Eddie Munson... But maybe that's the last thing she needs. °•°•°•°•°•° 𝘿𝙄𝙎𝘾𝙇𝘼𝙄𝙈𝙀𝙍: 𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘰𝘸𝘯 Stranger Things 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘐 𝘥𝘰 𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬, 𝘮𝘺 𝘖𝘊, 𝘮𝘺 𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘴𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴 (𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬).
