Once in a Blue Moon (boyxboy) by Cheshiregirl13

CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION I am currently rewriting the story to match my style a little more and to mature it to something I'm really proud of. There will be some new plot lines and a couple other new things but I think you all will like it. 15-year-old Michael Varsy is a normal guy. He's a new kid at a new school, just trying to be invisible and get through the next two and a half years of high school. But there's something about him. He's gay. A closeted gay at that. But when he meets Sam Stallion, something changes. Will he stay in the closet, or will he open himself up to the dangerous world that Sam brings with him?

Humanity's Hope: Book 1 in the Saving Humanity Series by PembrokeSinclair

What happens when humanity's hope rests on the shoulder of a teenager? Caleb didn't come out of the zombie uprising unscathed. He's been scarred-both mentally and physically. The rest of humanity is trying to rebuild, to make the world normal again. Caleb is trying to return to a normal life also, but after all he's seen, after the loss of his family and friends, the transition is difficult. The darkness that led him down a path of self-doubt and self-harm has never left his mind. Things only become worse when he discovers he's immune to whatever makes a zombie a zombie. Fighting zombies was predictable. He knew what to expect. Fighting humans is volatile. They are malicious and treacherous. They won't stop to get what they want, and Caleb has to figure out exactly what that is. *Trigger warning: Attempted suicide

Mean Boys-A Sander Sides Mean Girls AU by Little_Miss_Lee

COMPLETED Virgil thought high school would be easy. At least, easier than this. He didn't expect to get caught up in a civil war between two halves of the school, or that trying to fit in and lie low could be so hard. He definitely didn't expect to be the main pawn in a very intense game of high school chess. UPDATE: HOLY SHIT THIS THING HAS OVER 1K READS????? DAMN, THANKS, THOUGH I DON'T DESERVE IT

My Side by nicolereads2007

This is a story from a villains perspective. I'm Kit. Just Kit. My parents were expecting a boy when I was born. I was meant to be the greatest villain of all time. They thought a boy would be better for the job, but they got me. I was raised as they would've raised a son. I trained hard. I never went to school. Until now. I am fifteen years old and my mission is to take the best Hero's son. People don't get what made me this way, ruthless, emotionless, deadly... I am here to tell you why I am the way I am. I am Kit and this is MY SIDE.

Stitches by wannabe224

Based off of the short story I wrote called Bloody Sympathy. Holds similarities but a lot of it is changed or made more subtle since that was old writing and I find the intense sudden angst very cringe worthy but people wanted a full story and I like the original path the story was taking so i'm trying it out. Taekwoon lost his Mother at 15. His Father became distant and he took to school. He put all of his pain into studying and getting the grades he knew his Mother would have wanted him to have. Fighting his way to the top of the class Taekwoon graduated High School with a full paid scholarship to multiple universities. Taekwoon knew he wanted to be a doctor and saves lives. The issue was, he was terrified of needles. What is to come when he is the only one who can save a woman's life but has to face his fear to do so?

THE COLD WAR by mideh_light

Wasteland Conqueror by PowerArmorGuy

Dom, a man in his mid-twenties, suddenly gets reincarnated into the harsh post-apocalyptic world of his favorite game series, Wastelander. With his previous life ended and his new one just beginning he needed a new goal to strive for, and so with an ambitious heart, he decided to pursue the monstrous goal of conquering the wasteland in its entirety that has been left scarred by atomic fire for some two centuries. On his journey through this new world, he'll come face to face with all sorts of dangers ranging anywhere from mutants wanting to tear any human they come across to shreds for a quick meal to bandit clans that love to rape, pillage, and sell their victims into slavery. Despite those prevalent threats seeming dangerous enough to deter most from even attempting to set foot outside the confines of whatever safe haven they have, they're not even the worst of what he'll come across in the pursuit of his goals. Dom's quest will have him go toe to toe with the many powers that exist across the wasteland and their armies in his quest to one day conquer it. Will Dom achieve his dreams in this life or will he succumb to the many dangers that exist within the wasteland and beyond? | Other information | This work is only available on Webnovel, Royal Road, Scribble Hub, Wattpad, and Fenrir Realm.

The Trickster's Test {Prinxiety} by ShawnyVFX

A game. That's what it was, or what it was supposed to be. It's become bigger than that, and they all know it. The royals all participate in the game, unknowingly or not, and they are all strictly aware that one wrong move will lead to their demise. The figurative name of the game is lying and deception. Cheating is practically a requirement; those who play fair never win. Virgil Lancaster remained blissfully unaware of this game's existence until the night of the Sunstrix Gala. Will he become yet another victim of the Trickster's Test, or will his new knight keep him from losing himself? **I do not own the characters of Sanders Sides nor the art used for the cover** **TW (individual triggers provided in chapters except swearing): Lil bit of violence, lil bit of alcohol (no bad actions associated with it just general drinking, not main characters), mentions of death/grieving, some toxic family stuff (also not main characters)

Highschool DxD: Dragon's Ascent by BronzDeck

It's not often you get a second chance. Even less often that your second chance involves you being sent into a world where mythology is real and devils roam the world. Even less is that world being an anime you have watched before. That's right, I have been transmigrated into Highschool DxD. So, how does one survive in the world of Dragons, Gods and Boobs? Trough breaking the system of course! Because when life gives you a chess board you flip it over. Note: I do not own the cover nor do I have any claim over it
