"Drugs.

That was how it all started.

How the anger started. How the war started. How the flames started.

Drugs, and an especially annoying sixteen-year-old child."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh look, I've has taken on yet another project. Will I live to regret this? Probably. :D

This is a collab with @Lily_IsALittleGirl and @MayaTheWatcher, although Lily and I do most of the writing with Maya as our idea and plot help person

Also Maya made the cover because she is too talented for us mortals

Basically the premise of this is the DSMPers have elemental powers and we all get to see how much worse all their wars would've been with magic.All Rights Reserved

Project Frostbite by just_anutha_gurl

"No one knows where the Potentials are taken. If the prisoners resist, they turn up dead the very next day. They call it Project Frostbite." "They?" "Are all dead." ****** For over 6 months now, bodies have been turning up on the streets of New York. No one knows the cause of death, with the bodies unharmed, barring a single needle prick in the base of the victim's neck. Old or young, big or small; it didn't matter. No evidence of the killers, nothing. Tryston Waters lived a relatively good life. Granted he had an overprotective ex-military father and a policewoman for a mother, but still, he thought he was just a normal 19yr old boy with a normal job and normal life. But one day, when he reveals a powerful secret he didn't even know he harbored, Tryston's life will turn upside down. In 48 hours, he's dodging bullets, avoiding spies, and teaming up with a snarky assassin who doesn't know how to socialize. Firestorm was enjoying her time in New York. She was making big bucks in her "cleaning" business, and was having a blast fighting off the CEO's bodyguards who thought she was just a defenseless teenager. She doesn't have time to babysit an amateur pyrotechnic who is being chased by the very people she was running from. Tryston has no idea who is after him or why, and Firestorm seems to hold the answers. But just how close is she to Project Frostbite? After all, the enemy of your enemy is your friend. All in the name of war.

The soulmate gift by constellation201

••• Oh yeah, I think I forgot to mention, some of us humans are "gifted" as we like to say, in short, we have powers, well most of us do, anyway, powers that only show themselves when we turn 18. That's why an eighteenth birthday is such a big deal. Please note, that our powers come in all shapes and sizes. From elemental magic, to mind control, mind reading, time traveling, and even shapeshifting, and many, many, more. Even though some humans don't get powers, it's still better than getting what is known as The Soulmate Gift. What is it? You may be asking yourself. Well... It's when you can see what your soulmate sees and when you can talk to them mind to mind. Why is this such a bad thing? It only appears when one of the pair is in danger or is about to marry or spend their lives with someone other than their soulmate. So yeah, heartbreak is definitely present in the equation. And yes, you've guessed it, I, Amelie Diamandis, have the Soulmate Gift. And the fire gift. Which should be impossible. Isn't that just great? Oh, and my soulmate wants nothing to do with me....I think? ••• For as long as humans could remember you either got one gift or nothing, it's impossible to have two or more. A human with more than one power has been unheard of. Until today. When two people, destined since birth, break history with powers destined for destruction and a destiny that none can fathom. ____ THIS IS A FIRST DRAFT #167 in magic out of 270K 2021-12-05 #6 in high fantasy 2021-12-06 #21 in meant to be 2020-07-10 #43 in epic fantasy 2020-07-10 #31 in gift 2020-07-10 #31 in mate bond 2020-05-06 #58 in loneliness out of 12K 2021-12-02 ____ This story contains mature subject matter such as violence, reader's discretion is advised. ___ I couldn't find the artist that made the girl on the cover, if you know who it is please send me a message so I can credit them :)

His One Powerful Mate (Rewriting) by CLDorner

Hi Readers, Before you read this book, I just wanted to say that I am currently in the process of rewriting this story. Changes, whether they are big or small will be applied and things will most likely be cut. I am looking towards making this story more consistent since its not evident in the first draft. I hope that you will continue to support this story nevertheless of the changes made. Kindest Regards, Christine *** Prologue "She's here! We've found her!" The girls parents came racing over to the river bank that separated the two werewolf packs. "She's not breathing! Why isn't she breathing?!" The man pushed the woman out of the way gently and leaned down to check the young girls breathing. He put one hand on the girl's chest and started compression. He checked the girl's breathing again and continued with compression. The girls started to cough up river water. The man pulled her swiftly to her side so that she could expel the rest of the water out through her mouth. "Oh, honey!" the woman gathered the girl up in her arms and squeezed. The girl looked around disorientated. There were strange men and men from her own pack standing around her. "What happened?" She murmured. The woman looked down at her daughter with tears flowing down her face. "You nearly died." *** *Check out the rest of the prologue for more* #1 HigherPower #1 EpicBattles 2# Flames 2# PackMates 36# Power Copyright © All Rights Reserved 2020 NeoNixButterfly21/Christine Copyright © All Rights Reserved 2021 NeoNixButterfly21/Christine Copyright © All Rights Reserved 2022 NeoNixButterfly21/Christine ~ All chapters hereafter are protected by copyright.

The ELEMENT Project (Big Hero 6 Fanfic) (Book 1)《COMPLETED ✔️》 by devilishlyvintage

[Unlike the original Big Hero 6 film, this fanfic is mainly aimed at teens/young adults due to sensitive and possibly triggering themes. If you are easily triggered then please, for your sake, don't read this] [Takes place two years after the original film] "Even science has a dark side." Power. It's a poison that unmercifully effects your mental state. It deludes you of what really matters in life. It consumes you and you alone, so blaming someone else for your actions is just the lowest of the low, so low in fact that it would make the people around you want to scream in utter anger. The power of science is undoubtedly amazing yet incredibly dangerous; it can take a matter of months or years to perfect the greatest creation that could someday benefit mankind as we know it. Though you shouldn't be fooled, not even for a second. Trust us. There is a darker side to science- a side that not even you or I could understand. It's a side that would make you sick to the stomach (should you ever have to witness it). Even if you don't know it, we've all been affected by this poison at some point or another- it just takes a while to realise it. And once you do...the hands on the clock will never turn back. Ever. © me (concept idea and original characters) © Disney and Marvel ("Big Hero 6" and it's characters) © RuneScratch (base idea and Sunfire AU)

In Your Eyes // Technoblade x Reader by bubbleblease

"I know what it's like to be used! ...and so do you. Stay with me, please." A story in which the reader becomes a Technoblade apologist. ===== Cover art credit: noelhijkm - Instagram victorempov - Twitter Highly suggest checking them out. Their fanart is amazing! Heyo! This story will somewhat follow the plotline of the DreamSMP. Not to a tea but will hit the major events. It begins during the elections and exile. However, y/n has been around since the first revolution. It'll be a little more realistic, but aspects of Minecraft are still implemented (plus one self made one ;;;). We're in for a long one. Happy reading! WARNINGS: blood, swearing, angst, and gore Status: Complete <3 NO SMUT!!! If anyone within the DSMP is uncomfortable or asks for this story to be taken down, it will.

Rachel Greene: The Girl, who had an Impact by byleriscanon4life

my first finished book. I started writing this, when I was in 8th grade, and I ended writing it at freshman year. Warning: most of the book was written, when I was at school, meaning some stuff wasn't really researched (or was it?). And it may or may not have a lot of mistakes. This fanfic is was posted earlier on ao3 (since ao3 is cheaper, you don't have to buy subscriptions + some stuff to read it). This book doesn't have graphic smut, but it does have violence! (and pure murder). Currently, I'm writing my second book, which is mainly focused on what happened when Janna was stuck on Planet Europa 5893x. It has more murder, violence, royal drama, and maybe some romantic relationships (the only non-toxic ship in the first book were two 11 year old boys). When I was writing this book, I thought: "if tweek and craig were two 10 year olds in a healthy mlm relationship, why can't I do the same thing, but with an skateboarding goth 11 year old and a broke trans 11 year old". warning: janna, nate walker, bad (horrible) parenting, crazy oc-lore, murder and violence, toxic relationships, (surprisingly) healthy relationships, mentions of multiple fandoms (as we read the book, since my oc-lore is literally a cross-over between fandoms + my own thing), 🏳️‍🌈people, swearing, mentions of drugs(idk much about them but my oc's a drug dealer-) + many other stuff I should've mentioned, but didn't mention, because I was too lazy-

You're Still Here For Me, Right? {Ranboo angst AU} by BlueSuds

(This is my first story so please be nice! :]) Ranboo is only 7 when he starts getting bullied by his friends and his parents start abusing him. He doesn't think much of it he thought it was normal until he was 12. He started realizing it wasn't normal and wasn't okay. So he stopped being friends with his old friends. Ranboo had always had troubles with making friends. So he was lonely until he started streaming. After a few months of streaming this strange man named Dream decided to invite Ranboo to a Minecraft SMP. There we has surprised to see his ex-best friend, Tubbo. Tubbo seemed nice at first until he started bullying Ranboo again. Tubbo would say stuff about Ranboo's weight, facial dysmorphia, and anxiety. Tommy, Tubbo's best friend, couldn't even believe it was the same Tubbo. Tommy tried to stop Tubbo, but Tubbo kept going. Tommy got really close to Ranboo and tried so hard to help him. One day Tommy found out about what Ranboo was doing to himself, it put Tommy into a panic attack. He didn't know what to do. So he gave up until he got a note from Ranboo. Tommy ran as fast as he could and almost didn't make it...

18+ Trigger warning for talk of suicide/drugs.* A story about a young human girl who tries to steal from a fae man. She gets put in a cell under the royal palace, waiting for her 18th birthday. While in jail, she meets a young boy, they develop a friendship that turns into something more.

If you're just looking for smut ch. 14, 17, 30, 31, and 33 Preview Ivy felt like she had been lit on fire, a cold icy fire that was burning her alive. "I wish you were dead", she hissed at him as she broke the kiss. "Do it, kill me", he hissed back. She went for his throat, the lessons definitely helped but she was no match for him. "One day you'll be able to best me. Lucky for me that day isn't today." Ivy had wanted to claw his eyes out, "you're a monster." "So is everyone." "Not everyone kills seventeen guards." "You're right, only the strong kill in our world. Too bad we don't live in a fairytale." "Don't dare make me feel insane, it's insane, the world we live in! The death that surrounds SkyWood is sickening!" "It's utter insanity, love." "I hate it", "as do I." Than release me from our bargain! Let me live a life free of you!" Ivy said talking of her sworn allegiance to him for two years. "No!" He said before slamming his mouth back to hers. Their kisses were insanity. Crazy to a fault. "I love you." Ivy hated when he said it, "no you don't. One with a black heart cannot love." "I fucking love you with my whole black heart." "You don't know what love is. You love the idea of love. You love how loving me makes you feel." "And how does loving you make me feel?" "Like your heart isn't black." "Fair enough." They kissed urgently, Ivy removed her pants while he ripped her shirt from her body....

The Time Supergirl ended up in the Wrong Universe by Oddly_Serene

*I would love to have a better cover for this story, but it is what it is.* In a turn of events, Supergirl has found herself in an entirely new universe. She must find the culprit to even formulate a plan on how to get back to her universe. Luckily for her, the Friendly Neighborhood Spider Man is always up for helping anyone in need. So, this idea has been spewing in my brain for some time now. For it to be appropriate for the romance that may unfold, Supergirl is going to be seventeen and Spider Man is going to be sixteen. Essentially, the bad guy's portal has sent Supergirl into the Marvel Universe.

fatalism (allium duo) by cxtboy_

Book 1/5 --- ". . ." Time flew by faster than he had thought. "The more I trust, the less I see. The less I see, the more I trust." A quote that's been uttered in the back of Tommy's mind whilst hanging out with a certain enderman hybrid, he wondered what would go wrong. Nothing. Or at least that's what he had thought at that very moment. He'd never knew that he'd see the day where everything went downhill in a snap of his own fingers. --- DISCLAIMER : this is not meant to be skewed into any sort of shipping. this is all platonic. i will strictly not associate with any reading list that implies that this is anything but that. please do not forget where both ranboo and tommy's boundaries are placed and poppytwt please gtfo. thank you. --- this fanfic can be abbreviated to FL (for example: fl!tommy , fl!ranboo , fl!tubbo , etc.) --- tag places: #1 in angstfic - 3.5.22 #28 in alliumduo - 3.9.22 #1 in angstwithbadending - 4.25.22 #1 in dreamsmpangst - 10.29.22

*this story is under MAJOR revisions, as of 7.18.23 some parts of this story will be changing, I don't want to take this story down completely so I won't be. There might be a couple discrepancies in the plot once I start, not many and the story will still make sense. Just simple things like switching between first and third point of view. THE STORY WILL STILL MAKE SENSE! It is still good, I just want to make it better, simple as that. I don't know when I will finish, but it can only go up from here.* My name is Tessa Stilinski. I am the older sister of the hyperactive spaz known as Stiles. On the night Scott got bit, I did too. I didn't get claws or fangs, I got glowing purple eyes and a strange presence inside my mind. I start to dream of blue fire, and when I'm awake i see glimpses of what I believe to be the future. When I get angry I feel this power build up inside me, and when I release it, whoever or whatever i'm mad at gets thrown across the room, usually into the wall. Sounds fun right?

Pandora's Vault / Box / Jar (A Dream SMP and Reader Fan-Fiction) by AnExistingExistence

(A/N: This is a story with reader input in the form of the character (Y/N), who will be given the pronouns they/them so nobody feels left out, the dream SMP is real (not just a Minecraft server) and this story involves: Greek mythology, violence, romance, breaking of the fourth wall. If you're not comfortable with any of this, I recommend you do not read this. You can still do so, but then please don't be mad at me, since you just now have been warned.) -------------------- Months? Years? They truly couldn't tell anymore. The four walls of their cell looked all the same, and sometimes those walls would be the ceiling or the floor, and not even that could surprise (Y/N) anymore. This prison was quite lonely as well, and that wasn't even the worst part about it. The worst part was the cold reality of everything (Y/N) had done to get here. The bottom of the barrel - the worst scum one could become, that's what they were, and they knew it. But they would endure it until they died. They would sit here until their unavoidable demise, and they would do it for him. Just to see their best friend's face again. Maybe not in this life, but hopefully in another. And maybe then, they would finally be able to tell Wilbur how they felt. -------------------- Started on: May 20th, 2021 Finished writing on: September 8th, 2021 Finished editing and (poorly done) proof reading: September 23rd, 2021 Word count: 33.757

Please Don't Go (Dream x Reader) by Athrii_

I drew this! ^ with one of those crappy 6 in 1 multicolor pens. Dream x reader (SHE/HER PRONOUNS!!) Y/n finds herself in a interesting situation. She is falling for one of her best friends, Clay. An accident occurs, and she wakes up in a new surrounding. What happens if Y/n ends up falling for the same man twice? Aight. This is my first book, so I'd rather not be heavily criticized, but light criticism is appreciated. If there are any typos PLEASE point them out! :P This is a Dream x Reader book. There are mentions of blood, self harm, anxiety and panic attacks. This book also contains descriptive violence and use of weaponry. And perhaps death. If you are uncomfortable with these please DON'T read this! Consider yourself warned alright?! So this book does not follow the DreamSMP storyline at like... all, maybe a few parts, but most of this is my own imagination. HOW? FEB - 13 - 22 #3 on dreamxreader BRUH, THE STORIES ABOVE MINE HAVE LIKE A MIL + READS AN I HAVE 750. THAT DONT ADD UP WATTPAD. im in shambles JUN - 5 - 22 #1 on dreamwastakenxreader ahhh how??? That's gotta be lie. I refuse to believe it. Now...quote? - "You can't be on Nicks side!" I exclaim. "Now I'm stuck with George!" George makes an exaggerated gasp, "What's wrong with me? I literally have pretty privilege." (HA) The three of us say in sync, "You're colourblind." We burst into laughter once again. George rolls his eyes in disappointment, but is still smiling, "You guys are such idiots" -
