He was there alone, crouched, hands hugging his knees while he cried his eyes off.

Ears still numb after the loud click sound that got him where he is now.

He had trouble to breath the more he inhaled the air around him, which was contaminated with violet dust.

A few seconds have passed, he began feeling some strong stomping vibrations coming all around him on the ground.

In the horizon he witnessed hundreds of horrific beasts, some had hornes, some wings, others both, but they definitely all looked eager to murder.

The little kid panicked, he got up, and peeked anxiously at ever each direction really fast hoping to find and escape, his hands were trembling, his voice shaking as he implored his creator some, and called his mother some.

The beasts now a few metters away, he crouched again put his head between his knees and covered the whole with his arms.

"I'm gonna die, i'm gonna die, i'm gonna die..." He cried repeatedly to himself as he strived to breath.

His echoing words resonated so loud in his mind, that he began imagining his nostalgic joyful days with his mother, memories of her feeding, playing, teaching and holding him, a last grasp of his beloved, away from the calamity he got involved in, while he waited for his inevitable fate. 



...




He saw a demi-man demi-demon wearing white clothes, with blue lines and a hood over his head from which a horn protruded out of his left forehead, the borderline between the demon and the human side was glitching, each side was striving to take control of the rest of the body.

The kid then looked around him, dead fiend corpses were laying on the ground, his clothes were now sullied with blood and guts from the now dead monsters.

The wight then extended his hand palm up to the kid, inviting him to grab it.

Which he hesitantly did, he then walked behind the demi-human who said: "Hush, hush boy, Ecclector is here now" in a rather assuring yet cunning modulated voice.

For Stone Rienhart it all started with some bad luck and a demon. His life was a quiet one, lived in a modest home on the coast of Florida until one rainy night when his curiosity gets him entangled with forces out of his control. He gets dragged into the afterlife and meets friends there, powerful friends that will accompany him on his journey to become a demon hunter. However, as he strengthens himself to get revenge on the beasts that tore him from his peaceful world he begins to doubt the authenticity of what he thought was a normal life. As he travels deeper down the rabbit hole that is his new life he now has to answer a question he thought he knew. Who is Stone Rienhart? *EXCERPT FROM BOOK* James grinned, "Ah, but you see we're not here for money, we're just here to give you some advice. We came to make sure you stay healthy!" "I'm sorry but I don't understand." Lincoln looked more than a little hesitant to hear this so called 'advice'. "I just wanted to let you know that there are some people in Eden that are very, very dissatisfied with your work. I would recommend leaving the city alone, or you might end up getting hurt, and we wouldn't want that, now would we?! I mean, look what happened to your slaves over there!" James laughed as he watched Lincoln realize what he was saying. Then, without warning he grabbed a metal pen and slammed it into the desk, leaving it embedded halfway in. "So if I were you I would let the people who are in here go free and leave Eden alone. Do we understand each other?" Lincoln gulped and squeaked out a, "Yes." James once again brightened up and patted the side of his face, "Yes what?" "Yes...sir." "Good boy."

"Who are you?" I demand. The boy in front of me replies, "That's not how this works, love." I freeze. That phrase. That voice. It can't be. I look up but he's just a cloaked silhouette. The rustling stops when boys surrounding us step from their hiding spots and light lanterns. Every single one of them masked and cloaked. Except the one in front of me. The lamps lit, and I see his face. "Whoa," slips from my lips as I stare at the boy in front of me. His eyes widen and his jaw almost, just almost, drops. With his guard down for that one instant I lose all fear and gain control. "You!" I yell suddenly overflowing with anger. My stomach heats with rage. I fight to stand, stronger this time with anger as fuel. He backs up, his breath increasing. Obviously, uneasy, I take it as a win and almost stand all the way. "You. What are you doing here? How did you find this place!" He switched to angry. "You! You're the reason! They put me back because of you! It was all cause of you! It was your fault! All of it!" I'm so angry I yell only what I can. My thoughts flying through my head I can only yell unexplained nonsense. I've never felt anger like this before. The red glow lightly pours off my own skin and I take notice to it. I compare it to the glow coming off of him. Suddenly, it's an instinct to allow the anger to explode and in doing so the red glow is taken from his chest as I absorb it all and throw it out in all directions. I yank down away from the boy holding me just as the red glow gets sucked from him, absorbed into my hands, and then thrown out in a sphere of red glow. All boys stumbling but not by much and the one holding me gets knocked back, I'm free. "You die now, Peter Pan!"

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

He smiled. The devil himself couldn't have crafted a more wicked grin. "What do you say we play a game, little Reaper?" I narrowed my eyes, trying to decipher his intentions. "What kind of game?" His grin widened, showing the tips of his fangs. I watched the prince curiously as he strode over to his bag. With a swift motion, he withdrew a bow and a quiver of arrows, flinging them at my feet without so much as a second glance. I furrowed my eyebrows, casting him a look of uncertainty. That sinister grin stayed plastered upon his lips as he said, "Run." *** I, Skyla Ashforth, am what some might call a "sociopath." It was a title that fit. Why shouldn't I embrace it? I am a vampire slayer, a Reaper of bloodsuckers, and an exceptionally good one, if I do say so myself. Yes, being a sociopath has its perks; I could manipulate and deceive with the best of them. So, when captured by the notorious Red Prince, I embraced the challenge of manipulating my freedom. Pierce Darcee, was a sadistic vampire with a God complex. The fool actually believed he could break me. Little did he know, I was the kind of Reaper who would dance through a battlefield, whistling a merry tune as I twirled my braids. I relished the challenge of manipulating his oversized ego, planning to stab that rotting, blackened heart of his with a venom-laced dagger. I crafted a scheme so delightful, so intricate, that I couldn't help but salivate at the prospect of victory. It was foolproof, or so my mind believed. But then... then there was that pull. That unexpected, unwelcome spark that ignited something within me. Feelings, of all things! Now, that was a complication. Disgusting, messy feelings that could very well lead to my destruction. Or his. It was a dangerous game we played, but then again, the most thrilling ones usually are. *Rated M for Murder, Mayhem, and some profanity. Sorry but no smutty interludes. You've stumbled into a blood bath, not a bodice ripper.*

"Let me leave" I growl trying again but he does it again, I quickly step the other side successfully getting round him. But just as I reach the door, his hand slams it shut I look at the door trying to control my anger. "Never, I'd never let you go" he says, voice slightly deeper and just above a whisper. I growled angrily at him and turn to face him, once again his eyes flash with emotions i dont understand. "What's the point in this Oscar, you clearly don't want me here, don't want me-" I started but completely gob smacked when he suddenly says. "Shut up!" My eyes widen as his did for a second before his eyes flick down for a second and I heard him mumble "that came out harsher then intended" My anger flares as I push his chest, it did nothing and he didnt move. "All I'll ever be to you is some broken, disgusting monster kid that doesn't do anything for you, so just let me leave Oscar. Let's say enough to this now" I snaps turning to try open the door. I was then suddenly grabbed and turned instantly, he pressing me hard against the door. "I dont find you broken nor disgusting" he growls, eyes flashing again before something seemed to flash in his eyes, a darker Oscar arrived and I was completely down for. "does this-" He suddenly grabs my hips and pulls them flash against his, pushing his front forward slightly. Something hard poked me, causing my face to redden. I gasp instantly when i feel him throb slightly, twitching as if he knew I was there. I felt him lean closer, his hot deep breaths in my ear causing me to close my eyes "does it feel like you do nothing for me?" He growls. His voice and actions cause a throbbing of my own to occur. He pulls back so we were looking into each other eyes "your far from a child iris and there's not a single day I've looked at you that way" his voice only seems to deepen. I felt a wetness build in my panties causing me to blush harder, his hands suddenly comes up and cups my face and I knew I was screwed.

[MHA x F!Reader] [6k - 20k worded chapters] "Don't move!" You shouted as loud as your voice could reach, your hand coming up and cupping your neck as you fought back a violent cough, blood rising in your damaged cords. Your opponent did as commanded, but the effect only lasted for a second at most, making you go on the defense once more as you mustered up enough strength in your voice again. You had only a few more simple commands left in you, if you dared try anything other than a simple 'don't move' or 'move away', you'd leave your throat beyond repair. However, you didn't want to let up anymore than you already have, dodging another blow from the beast that was attacking you. You had run out of throat medicine a long time ago, and your weapon was beyond repair, you had almost no hope. Leaning backwards, you narrowly dodged a blow, a large gash forming on your cheek that bled wildly, you holding in a hiss. Skidding to a stop, the villain in front of you wasted no time throwing themselves back at you, your brows furrowed as you spat out the remaining blood in your mouth. The villains grin widened as they raised their weapon hire, preparing a fatal blow for you. Opening up your mouth, you prepared yourself for the inevitable, this was it, your final, fatal strike. At the cost of your vocal cords, you screamed as loud as you could, as loud as you could muster. "Plummet!" The villain was taken aback as they were sent back down into the ground, a scream rupturing from them as they were dug into the ground. And you? On your knees, coughing up gallons and gallons of blood, your vision, hazy.

She went to her room and locked herself inside the room. She slowly sat down and started crying, ''why does this always happen to me?" she said while putting her fingers in hairs. "I hate myself," she said, crying. Just then she got up and grabbed her sharp nail trimmer "I will end this" she said and almost cut off her vein, when she heard a very strange whisper. "Hey don't young Lady killing yourself is a sin" she turned and the nail trimmer fell off her hand. "Who is it?" she said but the voice did not come back, she looked inside the mirror she brought from her deceased relative. She watched her eyes, it was like her own reflection was looking at her, just than she felt her green eyes turning to electric blue, she got startled, then she turned and walked towards her bed, "It's like I am having hallucinations, can't die properly even " she said to herself and went to her bed. ****** She got up late in the morning; she didn't want to go to school. She turned to the other side of her bed. Still eyes closed she looked for a pillow but instead her hand touched something very hard, it was like a human arm, the manly odor was surrounding, first she thought she was dreaming, She hold him softly and hugged him. He was snoring faintly. She opened her eyes instantly, it was some unknown man on her bed and he was sleeping peacefully beside her, she narrowed her eyes to confirm it was indeed what she was seeing, she got up a bit while putting pressure over her arm. His light brown hair were fallen over his forehead, His broad chest was moving up and down as he breaths, when she realized that it was not dream, she got up and screamed. "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh". An ordinary love story? Think again.
