Never Look Back: A New Dawn by itschristinaaa
13 parts Complete Mature
If you could stop the world from being blown to oblivion, would you? Ryan McCoy is a killer; a killer who can look into the eyes of his victims and not feel the slightest bit of remorse. Taking lives is something he's spent years committing himself to, but not the lives of innocents. He's what his kind call a tracker, where hardened criminals who roam free are the kinds of people you bury in exchange for money. However, after tragedy strikes, he's forced into fatherhood while being pursued by his old team of trackers. It's considered a sin to abandon your group, once you join, there's no escape. But Ryan does escape, and he does so in the most brutal of ways. Five years later, all of the trackers he once knew and worked with have gone corrupt. They became the criminals they were once so eager to find. After Ryan is introduced to a mysterious new face, his past catches up to him and his family. Secrets and deceit begin to follow him, and the only way he can rid himself of it is if he reunites with the trackers and goes along with one of the most inhumane acts of all time. Who is the one orchestrating all of it? The psychotic, cold, empty sociopath he's forced to call his brother. A brother whose life mission is to take everything Ryan's ever worked for and destroy it. ***WARNING*** This is a fictional story comprised of fictional characters.

42 parts Ongoing Mature
Why do you pick fights with other boys? It's the question Ryan has been running from all his life. The answer will shock you. For as long as Ryan can remember, he's always wanted to be someone special. Now, a promising high school wrestler and a popular drug dealer, he's achieved the life he's dreamed of. He gets to go to all the fun parties, hang out with the cool kids, and be in a relationship with a beautiful girl who he loves. But Ryan's success is going to be bittersweet. A tragedy strikes someone close to him, creating a domino effect of self destruction. Ryan finds himself in a conflict where the repercussions threaten to destroy his life and potentially end it. Creeping in Ryan's thoughts is the source of his ambitions; a terrible secret he's unwilling to address. Go down the rabbit hole. Explore the fascinating chaos. You'll never forget what you read. Coming of Age is about the tragic experiences some teenagers go through and many others are aware of. The story explores themes like identity, ambition, love, trauma, forgiveness, free will, and redemption. Sensitive subject matter like drug addiction, extreme poverty, abuse, and violence are touched on, but in an honest, non-exploitative way. The story is based on my experiences as a teenager dealing mental health issues and the people I knew. Writing is my way to raise awareness of the issues I went through. I want to speak to people who can relate to my story and bring understanding to those that don't.

Five years have passed since the series of shocking and brutal murders known as 'the Tarot Killings' swept across Daleclay. Yet now, in the "present" of the early 1950s, amidst the scenery of two similarly typical American towns - Regal Falls, and the neighboring Pierton - a potentially deadlier menace has begun to simmer... Several school-age boys - each with an organ connected to one of the vital senses, removed from the body - have been murdered; a local history professor, along with his cerebral assistant, deduce that waxen symbols purposely discarded at the scenes point towards the practices of an ancient, Mithraic cult. Simultaneously summoned to offer the Regal Falls police a more unorthodox kind of aid, is the renegade detective known as Troy Porter - himself still struggling against a near-breakdown from the events five years prior. Along with Troy likewise arrives a promising adept of journalism - his junior by several years, albeit perchance kindred in spirit - whom the detective befriends during a night-train to their shared destination. The un-folding murders seem to actually have their origin in the disappearance of two companions from the local elementary school, fifteen years beforehand: Edward Lansing, whose parents afterwards create the eponymous Mary and John Lansing Foundation - an extended 'Protect-the-Children' project - and Gilbert Maxwell, whose own surviving family have avoided the public, ever since. Soon, the crime scene in Regal Falls spills over into a multitude of increasingly savage, albeit seemingly random, killings which follow the boundaries of neither age nor sex. Three additional 'top-tier' detectives are recruited, as vial options dissipate; and Bethany Chaiken - the precocious, thirteen-year-old cousin of the professor's assistant - now unyieldingly joins Troy in efforts that grow less sanctioned, and more forlorn, by the hour. How to rencounter a vier, who has attained near-omnipotence over the human condition itself?
