Once Before by festivesoul

Clementine have always felt like something was missing in her life, a feeling she couldn't quite comprehend, but she paid it no mind. All was well as she had begun to settle down back at home, to the humble little town of Ashford where she'd grown up, when a peculiar occurrence befell upon her. She had fallen into a misadventure in time - faced with the familiar façade of her hometown but through a different lens of time - and she must navigate her way through the unfamiliar era of early 19th century as she struggled with her own feelings and the truth that surrounded her.

Mortem by mfcbaldwin

[[My old description has been removed because it makes my story seem like crap. I'm having someone else write my description if I ever decide to publish this.]] Anyways if you reallly want a description here you go: Eleanor Halewood is forced to move to a new town and attend a new school after her father's death. In a small town in New Hampshire, does she realize that something is off with everyone there. First, she imagined a boy with no eyes. Then, she meets Levi Bianchi, a tall, pale, and handsome boy who seems to be flirting with her. And the worst of it all is that her mom is making her attend Mortem (which means death in Latin) High School for her sophomore year.

Until this strange woman comes banging at his door. Now he has a chance to redeem himself, even if only in his own eyes by rescuing a damsel in distress. If she will allow him. Beatrice has been living a half-life ever since her parents died. She doesn't mind being relegated to nanny, nurse and governess to her sweet nieces and nephews but now her sister-in-law is trying to marry her off. One night, mad with fever, she runs off into the forest to escape and suddenly finds herself trapped in a castle with an intriguing stranger. He never utters a word and yet she finds him intriguing. This story is a work of fiction. It is set in a fictitious version of the 19th Century. It is not historically acurate.

EXPERiMENT by PizzaNeverJudges

In the City, a large nation right smack in the middle of the United States, the citizens are safe. They live peacefully among themselves never wishing to leave, to roam out of the Boundaries. The place outside is actually scarily unknown to the people of the City. The Nation, which is the area that lies around the City is an old, yet largely inhabited amount of land that no one in the City knows about. Yet they are about to make their appearance in the world of the City people. Saidrienne Parks, the daughter of the rich Brunswick Parks, lives a simple yet complicated life. The City knows her as Brunswick's daughter, but is that how she wants to be known as in the graveyard? She hates the life her father has led for her and wants to change things when one day, things change on their own. Her father's assistant, Evadne, comes down with a rare ailment that has become increasingly popular in the past few weeks. She doesn't hear about it under her father's orders, but when it comes to the Outbreak, there are no orders. She is suddenly thrust into a world where she is constantly supervised and guarded. She cannot leave her Confinement until the moment she dies. For real. Scared, and rushed, Saidrienne encounters many small changes that ultimately result in her becoming ill. Things seem to be ending for this girl, once held so innocent from the world, and things are about to get much worse as her almost certain end nears. Fighting it doesn't help. Nothing can. 'The moment the world stops turning for me is a moment I don't want to see. Things have changed so fast for me now and my life is yet incomplete. But darkness is enveloping me. Just as it would a child of the night. Only I am not a child of the night. I am a child of the Dead.' Will she live on to be Saidrienne Parks, or will she die as Brunswick Parks' widely unknown daughter to the City?

The Painting by colleyflowers

"It took me five seconds to fall. The impact on my chest jarring my body but not my mind. I suppose this is the point where your life is supposed to flash before your eyes as time itself freezes - and it did in a way. But I didn't relive my life physically like walking through an old memory, déjà vu in each step. It was a feeling, something that started in my chest and spread to my fingertips, one so unique to me that it encapsulated each significant event into one single second." For as long as May can remember one mystery has haunted her world. A dirty window before her, the grim obstructing her vision, she has lived with a loss she can't identify - that is until one rainy night. Gradually the spots of dirt May scratched at for so long wipe away with the touch of a finger. But when she looks in will she like what she sees - or will curiosity kill the cat?
