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.

The Deserter
Germany, April 1945. The Red Army has reached Berlin, hellbent on burying the Third Reich once and for all. 13-year-old Werner Otto Hoelscher, a young, blindly patriotic member of HJ-Bann 37, is perhaps a bit too eager to taste front-line combat for the first time, and to uphold his reputation in his troop, and to honour the memory of his late stepbrother--but this patriotism and zeal is put to the ultimate test after he is sent by his commanding officer on a suicide mission. As the battle takes an increasingly bloody turn, divisions among his closest friends deepen, and Werner must soon make a choice between the lives of his most cherished friends and loyalty to the ideological figureheads that had once nurtured and indoctrinated him, who now demands all to shed their last drops of blood in the final chapter of the world's deadliest and most destructive conflict. This is my first major project, and my biggest so far; I spent the last five years working on this. I'm anxious to bring this to Wattpad on its trial run. I hope you appreciate it!
