Down memory lane, through music history. This is a special train service to: The Holy Grail. Calling at: Antique Instruments, Lost Masterpieces, Dangerous Secrets, Forbidden Arts.

"Can we stop feeling guilty, Amelia? Guilty for all the things that weren't our fault." "We can Leo. Maybe someday." "That day isn't far off Amelia. I'll make sure of it." ___________________________________ There is a lot to think about when you find out your best friend has been raped and murdered.

KILLER SYMPHONY by Captain_Fein

It's Classical Music vs. Heavy Metal! A dark sci-fi story about a killer who falls in love with the superstar violinists he's paid to silence and a heavy metal idol that gets his left arm replaced by a mechanical limb. How far would you go to protect the music you love? One lived to create killer symphonies, the other craved to reinvent heavy metal… Gabrant Evergreen, a music-obsessed, schizophrenic hitman, is hired to silence the world-famous violinists, and twin sisters, Artemis and Arjuna. As he falls in love with their looks and their music, he rebels against his employers and starts to fight the other assassins sent after them. After Rikk Raven, a sensitive guitarist, sees his girlfriend brutally murdered, he receives an invitation from an obsessive fan that turns his world upside down. If he gives up his left arm, he could get it replaced by a mechanical limb that would allow him to play the guitar like no-one in the business. He agrees to this and meets the secretive Wintervia, an inventor who promises to make him into a star. Controlling everything from his subterranean throne, Wintervia uses six elite hitmen like chess pieces in his war against classical music, while he transforms the broken Rikk into the ultimate heavy metal machine.

Deranged (Completed) by IDidntseeyou

I just wanted to go home, but at the time I guess it was right. He was standing on the track of an oncoming train, was it really that wrong to save him? Gage Grant saved a boy named Patton from killing himself, but what Patton does to thank Gage is something no one wanted. Patton followed Gage around like a puppy, a loyal puppy. A puppy no one wanted to have because of how loyal it was to it's owner. *This story will have may/will have triggering topics- LGBTQ Neglecting/Abusive Parents Mental illnesses Mentions of sexual activity More in the tags as to not spoil the story* Thank you for playing Completed: 10/07/20

Live, Die, Repeat by Loiosh

I'm 4000 or so years old. I've been reincarnated as pretty much everything under the sun at this point. Male, female, dog, cat, shark, even one memorable time as a rabbit.

Will is starting the last half of his senior year of high school at a private academy in New Hampshire, just trying to get through it so he can move on with his life. A chance encounter with sisters Ash and Anna lead to finding out about a lot of hidden drama in the little ski town. But Will is hiding something too, a big something that that would take a major leap of faith for anyone to believe, let alone accept. This isn't his first time through high school, and it isn't his first life, the gods have given him an extra chance. Well, a lot of them really. How will the latest turn out?

Choromatsu x Reader-Music to My Ears by KawaiiShou

The music business was a tough job, but you were up for the challenge. You spent your whole life playing and creating music, because it was your passion. Music was what made you, you, and you kept it close to your heart. But, when your mother gets in a severe car accident and passes away, your father decides to take a plane to Switzerland, to get away from his old life. Deciding to go with him, you attempt to follow him to his destination but end up getting on the wrong plane, and you end up stranded in Tokyo Japan, knowing absolutely no Japanese, and with no money to return to your father. The only thing you have with you is your small, portable ukulele. Stranded in Japan, you decide to try and play music on the side of the street to raise enough money to return to your father's side. But, when a certain man in a green hoodie finds you playing your music on the side of the streets, it's clear your music isn't the only thing he admires. -------------- Are ya'll ready this is gonna be some fluffy AF shit right here. Same as the first story, this is female reader x Choro, but anyone of any gender may read, I just forget to add gender neutral pronouns. I had a C in English class this year for a reason, I forget to add shit like that. ENJOY~

The world, coming down by MyEyesAreCircles

One way or another, Dec had been captivated by it all; those eyes, that smile, his somehow calm but chaotic energy. He was captivated. Enthralled. Desperate to live the life he couldn't help but fantasise about. Even if, in reality, it wouldn't be the perfect, picket fence existence he imagined. Even if the world would come falling down over and over again. Even if everything went wrong... It would all be worth it in the end. Dec/Stephen
