In a post-apocalyptic world, a weakened tribe of people called the Echelon are attacked by the Believers, a rival tribe much larger and stronger than the Echelon. Brothers Shannon and Jared lead the men into a battle of destinies, hoping to put an end to the century long feud. Wounded in battle, Shannon is put in a healing coma leaving his pregnant wife and son to cling to every last shred of hope that Shannon will fulfill his promise that he would return. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a short story that I started writing about a year ago for my school's literary festival. None of the pictures are mine but I will take credit for the half-decent photo-shop. Characters in this story are based off of the three members of 30 Seconds to Mars (Jared, Shannon and Tomo), one of the tribes off of the Mars fanbase (the Echelon) however the characters of James and Montserrat are completely original. Please comment and let me know how I can make this story better and if you think that I should make this into an actual multi-chapter story. Much love, Susie xx

You asked, I delivered. This is the official sequel to my very first story on this website, "Break the Cycle". This story begins exactly where "Break the Cycle" left off; Christmas Day. It's a day of celebration for the Cerulli family, and the new year marks a new beginning for them all. That is, of course, until things get complicated. What happens when Max's mom ends up face down on the floor with a bottle in her hand? What happens when Max gets in a CAR with a bottle in HER hand? Or when Chris gets a call that Riley's kidnapping case is being reopened on the same night Jack's family gets a call that Phoebe's murder case has been reopened? Or when Carlie and Riley start to get close again? Or when Jack, Riley, Max, and Emily all end up sitting in the lobby of an abortion clinic in Connecticut? Or when the fact that Riley is a lesbian suddenly becomes an issue for some of her family members? Or when someone almost jumps off a building? Life is complicated; of this, we are all aware. However, it seems like life so far for the Cerulli family is only just getting started because what lays ahead, none of them saw coming. Will they survive the drama? Or will they cave under the pressure of trying to keep their family together as outside threats try to force it apart? You'll have to read to find out ;)
