Death is perfect. He speaks every language, he can do anything you can do; play an instrument, draw paint, skateboard, write ect. ten times better then you can, and looks like a god in the face of a normal human, and the only way to escape the certain fate brought on by meeting him is to be better then him in any area of your choice, and to win a competition against him,

Zaida Garnet is a child prodigy. She's been playing violin since she was a child, she spends more time practicing then she does sleeping, has been first chair at all state four years in a row, and has a most impressive track record on top of that. Her dream is to go to Julliard, and some day become a famous classical musician, a household name, like Bach, and Beethoven, however she can't do that from the grave, so her only option to make that dream come true-and to save her life- is to beat death at his own game.

COMPLETED Living a life you didn't sign up for is hard, but doing so while feeling lost is harder. Dylan Amity is a musical prodigy. He could play a range of instruments, from the electric guitar to his violin. He lived, ate, and breathed music and was on track to becoming the orchestra's lead violinist. He was ready to become one of history's best composers. But he decided to place his dreams on hold for a while when he found out that his dad, the CEO of Amity Industry, was diagnosed with stage three lung cancer. His dad's death was expected, but the way he died wasn't. After the reading of the will, Dylan is faced with the harsh reality that you don't always get what you want. Following a short period of grief, Dylan is thrust into a world of business, responsibilities, and guardianship. He never wanted to be CEO, but now he has to because it's what his dad wanted. He also never expected to be Amber's, his thirteen-year-old sister's, legal guardian. Dylan has to put his dreams aside as he learns to navigate his new life without any experience of being a CEO or a guardian. Without a guide, Dylan is bound to feel lost, but maybe Rose could help. Maybe she could teach him how to deal with it. ••• Sneak Peek: "You know what, Amber? At least I'm fucking trying!" I gritted out, meeting her eyes that practically blazed with fury. "Yeah! Trying to act like papa. But guess what, Dylan, you never cared about me or what I did!" She screamed, taking steps back towards the stairs. "You never cared when I was a baby, you didn't care when I was a toddler, and guess what! You don't care now. You're only pretending to care to make yourself feel better. But you don't! No one fucking cares."

[COMPLETED : 5|09|2016 and slowly editing ] He snapped his fingers and a red flame flourished into existence. "How did you-" "I'm a professional." He smirked, clearly enjoying this. If I got a penny for everytime I rolled my eyes at him, I would probably be a billionaire. In a limousine. With a hot wife. And a hotter girl to cheat on her with. And that too I'm straight. He flexed his palms and the flame disappeared. "With practice, even you can control your Blue Matter." I didn't say anything, just nodded. "This Blue Matter is stronger than Red Matter. It can destroy beings. Be careful with it." "Uh, so I am a DreamMaire?" "No, Sophie, you're the Dream Maker." _______________________ Sophie Hazelwood, sixteen, just makes it in the world with her confident aura and weird humour.

Finally, she and 4 others were chosen out of 15000 people to join the orchestra. Thrilled and overjoyed, she went to her first practice. The only problem is making friends. Unluckily, that hot boy Percy from percussions was stationed behind her forever. Percy always thought he belonged in the music life, unlike his parents and his other friends who were constantly playing with their phones and playing stupid computer games. When he first joined The Hallowss, he believed that he was meant to be there. It was his life. Until the cute git Twyla stomped her way into his life, his life had been flipped inside-out, and never the same since. *** Hope you will like this, even though it might not work out, and may end up like my previous works *** *** ((If you know what I'm talking about~)) ***
