During WWII, two 14 year old kids named Willa and Schaffel, attempt to escape the traumatic events they've experienced...

Willa has been locked up by the Nazis for years, after surviving a devastating bomb which roared through Warsaw in 1939, killing her mother. Ever since she was used for her unexplainable powers to win against the allies.

Schaffel, living an isolated and blissful life on Actaeon, a planet inside a hidden solar system beside Earth is unaware of any tragedy, other than being bullied for being different. Until, his planet is attacked, and Schaffel loses everything he once held dear to him. But when he suspiciously wakes up to be on Earth afterwards, the place he once treasured from his books, he learns it's very different than it seems. That is, until he meets Willa. 

Schaffel and Willa together uncover the evil forces threatening Earth and Human existence, along with ugly truths and secrets they never knew.

REDEMPTION by Nyctophile_22

2nd Place in The Dragon Fire Awards 3rd Place in Science Fiction in the Tricolour Terrenial Awards. " No one was truly your own in this world. Everyone, in the deepest parts of their hearts, cared only for themselves. And even if true love did exist, you can never truly understand someone. You can never know what is going on in the other person's head. For all you know, the person can be looking at you with loving eyes, full of bliss, but really they are battling their own, inner demons, keeping secrets buried and telling lies to cover up. That's what people do. That's what everyone does. Keep their demons buried and tell lies to keep them buried. And people love so that they can heal, so that they can find relief from continuously battling their demons. To have someone to share their burden with. And havoc occurs when the demon is stronger than your will, when love isn't enough to keep the monster at bay. " A girl, torn between her heart and mind. A boy, set out to avenge his parents. A pair of twins with only one, deadly goal in their life. A country ruled and oppressed by a power-hungry mad man. Will they ever be free?
