TW: Thoughts of suicide
Savior is a short story that I wrote for the We Read Youth Voices 2024 writing competition. It, unfortunately, was not chosen to be included in the anthology, but I still wanted to share it!
16-year-old Olivia Wattson lives a lonely life, with classmates that make fun of her and a mother who doesn't care for her. And the voices definitely do not help. They are always there with her, teasing her, filling her head with insults and lies. They make her life even more miserable than it already is--until one day, when they offer her a way out. Olivia eventually decides that she is going to escape this world forever. However, everything changes when Vanessa, the new kid at school, gives her a compliment; a seemingly meaningless act, but something capable of completely changing Olivia's mind. This story is about how simple acts of kindness can change someone's life.

Suicidal
This is the story of an abused teenage girl, Maddie. Her need to die has become overwhelming and she is trying to find a way to help herself before she does something she may regret. The story is told from her point of view as she recalls all that has happened to her. Maybe telling her story will help her, maybe not. This isn't just any other sob story. This is more realistic. You may even find yourself comparing your life to Maddie's while reading this story. Disclosure: I wrote this as a 13-year-old and the writing is definitely not up to my current standards, but I feel as though changing what I have already written would take away from the emotion I put into this story at 13 years old. If you'd like an updated and more well-written version, please read my other story entitled "Remembering".

Living the Homestuck Life
Based off of the webcomic created by Andrew Hussie, this story takes place on an average world where four teens lived average lives. In the hot city in Texas - Houston, Texas, these four teens will find out that their average lives are no longer ordinary. The fourth wall has been wrecked and these four teens' world has collided with the world of Homestuck. Fictional characters that were created by Andrew Hussie now live in the average teenagers' world. Thinking that it was all fun and games, the teens never felt so wrong. Not believing in the consequences of colliding with a dangerous universe, these teenagers will have to fight for their lives as their world is coming to an end. It is better to try to expect the unexpected, but how unexpected is the "unexpected"? The occurring strings of fate tie these teenagers together in this long tale. These adolescents from the average world will face challenges like trying to find answers behind closed doors, trying to find their true potential, and trying to find their right places. Can Rebecca, Vanessa, Angela, and Spencer be able to beat not only the enemy, but themselves? This tale will be something that a fan will never have dreamed of! Can this all be something that a fan would expect? Can the four kids be able to live the Homestuck life? They will not be expecting a really, agonizing long day! -Reader is Advised- Warning: there will be gore, action, and some dramatic scenes that will be written in this story! Some cases may be quite disturbing in future chapters! This is a PG-13 to R-rated fanfiction! In addition, I do understand that there is grammar mistakes and other errors in the writing. All are not intentional! **Discontinued**Complete
2038: Vincent
(All text was transferred from google docs; none was stolen.) This story is inspired by the video game Detroit: Become Human. All credit goes to the producers of it, and I am not trying to steal any of their content from the game. About: Elias; a 16 year old boy is exploring an abandoned science lab with his friend when he comes across a time machine. He doesn't think it works, and steps inside. He is sucked into the future where the world has completely changed. He stepped out, revealing he was now in a new year: winter in 2038. Luckily, it was closed, and he went to find help. He came across Vincent, an android, who helps him explore the world in the future, and attempts to help Elias get back to 2022. However, there are obstacles. Some androids had developed a mind to kill each other. But Elias helps Vince survive, while Vince helps Elias travel back. Elias develops a close connection with Vince, and wants to stay with him in the future even though it is dangerous. He doesn't want to leave Vince in the world, but can't bring him back with him in the past since there are parts on Vince that aren't invented and will disintegrate. They need to figure something out, but what? Read on to find out... Notice: This story contains mentions of heavy violence, light gore, fear, suicide, and bugs. If you have trouble with these, please do not continue reading. If not, enjoy, and thank you! Notice 2: DO NOT SHIP ELIAS AND VINCENT. Vincent is technically considered an adult while Elias is still a minor. I will kick your shins if you ship them because it is extremely illegal to do so. However, you may think of them as a father and son because that's kind of how Hank and Connor are, though they are both adults. :)Complete
My classmate is a demon...
------------- "Why're you staring at me?" I ask teasingly. I hear him letting out a breath, of embarrassment or guilt I don't know. "I may have unintentionally hurt you, on several occasions. I may have done the wrong thing more than once. But despite all of that I still like you, hell if I know I might love you. I've never felt the way I feel about you for anyone else before. I can't stop thinking about you. Your laugh, your smile, your voice. How you manage to pull a joke at a time like this, to how peaceful, and beautiful you look when you're sleeping." I smile. "You okay? Did you hit your head or somethin'?" I tease. "Shut up." ------------------------- Olivia, a 16-year-old girl with a tragic past. Her sister was kidnapped and brutally killed, her father comes up with the brilliant idea of moving. As she's getting settled in school, she meets this mysterious boy, and before she knows it she is dragged into hell. Literally. Figuring out that the kidnapper is connected to the murder of her sister, might be her downfall. Especially when she finds out her big family secret, and the terrifying fact that her classmate, is in fact, a demon. How will she deal with the new turn of events and how her life has been turned completely upside down. Especially when she was convinced that she would only focus on school, something that is now so far down on her list of important things to worry about, that she barely even remembers to show up to class.

-Call Me Bre- (Calum Hood)
She was the outsider. The girl that sat at the back of the class and never raised her hand. The girl the sat alone at lunch because everyone thought she was weird for not speaking. She was the girl that had a million thoughts running through her head but had zero guts to say them. She was the girl you don't normally fall for but, then, she became the girl that captured the heart of the guy everyone loved. ---- "Shit, I'm sorry" A deep voice mumbled squatting down to help her up. A rough hand pulled her up and her blurry vision landed on dark eyes. She blinked a few times and her vision came back. Standing in front of her was a boy about her age. A very attractive boy. He was almost a foot taller than her 5'3 height. His black hair was slicked back and his tan skin radiated under the fluorescent school lights. Her mouth was slightly ajar as she stared at him. She hadn't realized how close she was to him until she felt his breath on her lips. She jerked away, grabbed her glasses on the floor and ran away in the opposite direction leaving the boy to furrow his eyebrows at her behavior. However, a small smirk played on his lips as he placed his hands in his jeans pockets and turned in the opposite direction. 'Stupid, Stupid, Stupid' She thought to herself.Complete

Maybe Too Protective
We reached the hospital and Ryder, still being gentle, jumped out of the car. Zach opened the doors for him and they rushed inside the emergency room. "We need a little help." Max asked the nurse at the table. SHe seemed a little bit annoyed. "Sir this is the trauma center. If you have an emergency that can wait...Oh my gosh." She spoke once she looked at me. "Dr!" She looked at a blonde woman walking by. "Yes?" The woman walked over with a smile on her face. The nurse pointed at me. "Over here." She lead the guys to a hospital bed that they laid me down. "If it means anything, she has panic attacks." Ryder explained. "Page Shepard." She told someone. "What's her name?" "Lucy." Ryder told them. Then, light people around me became blurs, than darkness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Maybe you had some high school bullies, but I hope they weren't like Lucy Smith's bullies.

Unconditionally
"What I was suppose to do? You left me, you went to Arizona." I shout at him as he storms away. "Wait for me." He shouts and I go mute. Did he really just say that? Had he really expected me to just sit around? "Oh yeah, just like you did for me." I finally say, finding my voice. "You moved on Elijah and it crushed me," I start as I get emotional and my voice breaks. "You think I don't know? You think that I wasn't hurt? I spent ten months holding onto you and even after that I still won't let you go, I still can't let you go." Elijah flips, shocking me. "You are everything Scarlett...and I am nothing without you." he says, eyes liquid as he stares intently at me. I notice how close we were to each other now. His hand on my waist now and I step in closer to him, heart racing like crazy. "I am nothing without you," he repeats quieter, leaning in towards me. For sixteen year old Scarlett Grey, happiness and love has never been in her favor...or life itself. But all that changes one crazy, complicated, and absolutely confusing summer...Read about Scarlett's tumultuous summer as she discovers things she never knew about life and love and the craziness of it all.Complete
