"They were supposed to be our protectors. Then everything changed"
"What were?"
"The reflections. Then they changed and turned on us"
"You're crazy."
"The reflections changed and that was where it all started"
"Where what started?"
"When people started caring a little too much and became just a little bit too self absorbed. Most people think it was just progressing technology and false advertising. But then I have the right to ask, how did those people get that idea? It was the reflections. They control us. They are us. Only we have the power to calm them. To stop their rampage that is plaguing our society. We are a sort of healer, the medication for your mind even, we are the gifted. Only we have the power to stop whats coming next."
"And what is that exactly?"
"Well I guess you'll have to find out."

The Twisted Tales
A place where true love expires, good people get fired and beings are nothing but dust. Where stalkers are heroes, society makes zeroes and madness is not in the crust. Some people are killers, and that's just the pillars of what is essentially rust. When you feel you are mad, but that isn't so bad in a world that is oh so unjust. They'll kill you by car, or from quite afar in a world where all life is fleeting. Don't try to protect, you'll just end up wrecked, for you know their hearts are not beating. They'll kill you my sweet, and not drop a beat, for my story is only just heating. Power means all, even more for the small, but power has a habit of retreating. The bodies mount up, many lives will breakup, as I'm here to just tell a story. Don't look in the hill, though it is quite a thrill, I've heard it can get quite gory. Don't play with the heart, and don't think you're too smart, or you'll die with none of the glory. All are mad from the start, but you played your part, in the world of pure purgatory. Alas look a ghost, be careful you're not toast, you must want to see what I see. Society is ruthless, protection is fruitless, for in madness is when you are free. Perfection is dead, from the wounds we all bled, a cruel fate we did not foresee. While outsiders are safer, if only by a wafer, you can still hear them utter a plea. Now my story is frightening, but oh so inviting, so come now and give it a whirl. I can promise some danger, so don't be a stranger, watch now - we will see it unfurl.Complete
Captive of the Shadows (The Fairy Code Book #1) by Kaitlyn Weiss
It started out like any other day. How was I to know it was my last day on Earth? You see, on that day, my boss sold me to Doran, the King of Shadows, ally of Chaos, and ruler of one of the three faery courts. Sounds crazy, right? After all, I'm a geneticist, not a slave. Before I knew it, I was transported to another world - a world where the very landscape killed most humans. Somehow, against the odds, I survived. But how? And why was I here? I soon found out that the faeries were barren and facing extinction. The King of Shadows set before me the daunting challenge of finding out why. The consequence for failure? Facing an unbearable fate. But someone or something was out to stop me.... My search for a solution would lead me to secrets about my own origin and to unexpected feelings for this cruel land and its harsh ruler. Oh, Chaos! What a wild ride!Complete![The Mirror Seas [UNCOMPLETED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/375487865-256-k395255.jpg)
The Mirror Seas [UNCOMPLETED]
The Mirror Seas are an otherworldly expanse that stretch far beyond the horizon, appearing at first glance like calm waters but, in truth, made of enchanted glass. Their surface shimmers and reflects the sky and everything around it with eerie clarity, as if reality itself is duplicated upon them. Beneath the glass lies the Mirror Realm, a dark and distorted version of the surface world where reflections take on lives of their own-sometimes twisted, dangerous, and independent. The seas are not static; they shift subtly, their glassy surface rippling like liquid in moments of high magic or danger. Sailing across them is perilous, as sailors often report glimpses of their reflections behaving differently from their true selves, or seeing visions of things that haven't happened yet-or perhaps, things that never will. These glimpses lure many to madness or worse. Navigating the Mirror Seas requires great skill and a strong will, as the deeper one sails, the thinner the veil between the two worlds becomes, and the more reality itself warps. Ships can get trapped in pockets where the mirrored world pulls them down beneath the glass, never to return. Only the bravest-or the most desperate-dare to cross these treacherous waters, seeking power, knowledge, or something lost. At their heart lies the mysterious source of the Mirror Seas' power-an ancient artifact tied to the lost race of **mirror-walkers**, beings who once ruled both realms. Few have ventured there and lived to tell the tale, and fewer still have returned unchanged. (This novel is heavily inspired by One Piece yk the Anime... or something like that)

This is not an Apocalypse
The world is changing, two years ago strange weather, various anomalies and strange creatures started appearing from nowhere all over the world. Some creatures were completely alien and others were familiar looking as if they'd stepped from myth and legend. What many of these creatures had in common however was their aggressive nature and predatory instinct. Things that go bump in the night, that shifting shadow in the dark alley way, the cracking branch right behind you. Nightmarish creatures now stalk the land. Monsters. That isn't the only change in a new world however, humans have also changed. Some unknown phenomenon has granted humanity access to incredible power. The very elements themselves can now be wielded by those willing to risk the dangers. Earth, wind, fire, water, suddenly magic has become possible in a modern world and there are many who are eager to develop and embrace their newfound power and help protect their fellow man from monsters. There are also many who are willing to make a profit from newfound opportunities this changing world provides. Unfortunately for our MC Jack, embracing newfound power and going out to valiantly battle monsters isn't quite as simple as most other people have it. He possesses the rare and not so sought after lightning element, considered the weakest element for certain reasons, pitied and looked down upon Jack is determined to become a successful monster hunter in a more and more dangerous world. A slow burn story with world building, dungeon delving, character progression, Litrpg elements and more. WARNING - The MC is not a Mary Sue, he is not super competent, or super powerful or super intelligent nor a paragon of virtue, just a normal guy in a not so normal situation and him growing to deal with it in his own way.
