The Misfortune of Distorted Truth
A twelve-year-old girl named M's life is turned upside down when a mysterious boy drags her into an underground world, where magic and treasure await. But there's something lurking in the shadows that could put M's life and everything she loves at risk. **UNEDITED** (Please excuse any grammatical or spelling errors, these are completely accidental and do not reflect my writing and English skills) If you read the story, I'll love you forever, except I won't because that would be just a little bit creepy. Please leave me a comment somewhere if you believe this story should be rated mature. I'm not entirely certain myself. The first of 'The Misfortune' trilogy.Complete

Forever. -excerpt- I was sitting quietly in the middle of Central Park when suddenly a flower appeared on my vision. I looked up and saw a redhead smiling widely at me. My hoodie obscure half of my face so I doesn't know if this strange woman saw my flat expression. "I am sorry. I've been staring at you for a while which I know was totally creepy but I swear I am not. I notice that you look lonely and sad so I picked this flower and hopes that your day will become a little bit lighter." She pushed the flower a little so I was forced to take it. "Huh you're still not happy. Wait please." The redhead run towards a bush that has a sign that clearly said "Don't pick any flowers. Fine $50." After she picked a handful. She runs back to me. "Here." she offered the newly stealed flowers to me. "oh I also have a chocolate bar. do you want one?" The only thing that's running on my mind was who's this strange woman and can I take her home? Another amazing cover from @Regina_Anais!Complete
