JACK is terrified. Crossing the line with the Great prevents him from once again setting foot outside his prison, that he calls home. There is a way to go on the mission he deserves, but he must risk it all to attempt his escape. 

MILES is ecstatic. Going on the mission of his dreams with the girl of his dreams is all he's ever wanted. But when he must choose between this future and Jack, he has no where to go. 

GRACE is more scared then she's ever been. She is chosen to go with Miles on her yearly mission, and for her, that is wonderful. But a strange spirit seems to be possessing her, and it goes farther than she ever expected when the spirit flies her out of the castle and into a dark cave where the spirit must lurk. 

Every year,  in the realm of the Enchanted Castle of the Protectors, there is a week. This week is dreaded by humans, yet looked forward to by the Protectors. This is the week where the heroes can prove their worth. A darkness comes, and lingers in the cities and towns and haunts the humans. Each Protector is assigned to a specific human, to protect them from the darkness. But at the end of the Dark Week, the darkness has not faded. Is this the work of the supposedly dead Dark Lord, and will Jack, Miles, and Grace stay alive long enough to stop him?All Rights Reserved

Chaos & Order by Sakkee91

In another world and another time, something unthinkable happened--an Angel who guarded the young and innocent fell in love with a king of Vampires. They had to meet in secret, as their love was forbidden by all the laws of their world. All the while, their love grew stronger and stronger... But then, one day, the Angel was found out. She was told that, if she was to stay with her love, she would have to give up her wings. And she happily did--she gave up her wings and left Heaven. It seemed that her joy with her Vampire love would only increase--shortly afterward, she found out she was with child. The two were very happy and were wed soon after. But their joy was short-lived. When the Angel went into labor, she swiftly fell very ill. In a panic, the King offered his blood. But she refused. After their baby, a daughter, was born, the Angel died. What none could have predicted, though, was that the daughter would have an incredible gift. Because Order can only last for so long. Eventually, the powers of Chaos will have their say...

Playing with Fire [COMPLETED] by RavenMoonspark

Every year, my town chooses a sacrifice for the demon that "watches over" our home. In exchange for a person from the village between the ages of 17 to 25, the demon protects our village. And because of that pact, our village is protected for the next year, under the demon's watchful eyes. No one knows what happens to those who the demon chooses, but there's a lot of theories about it. One is that the demon eats or absorbs those who are chosen - another, that it kills them. But this year, I'm the one who's chosen. I get to meet the demon I've feared since I was a child, and now that I'm 24, and am considered an adult, I could have left the village behind. But I didn't. Something inside me told me to stay. Now, I'm going to die. I just know it. I can't leave now, or run away, because the town would be unprotected for a whole year, and that's where my family lives. I don't know what to do, but I'm sure I'll think of something. Besides, how bad can this demon be if they're guarding our town?

Never Ending Circle Of Reality by LilithAnders0n

Talia had always lived in a world of fantasy, a dreamer lost in the stories her father once told her. He spun tales of enchanted kingdoms, fearless heroes, and magical lands that existed beyond the stars. To her, those stories were more than just bedtime tales-they were a part of her, a place where she belonged. But when her father mysteriously vanished, reality came crashing down. The magic faded, leaving behind only an aching emptiness. Years passed, and Talia buried herself in the last relic of her father's world-his old book, filled with the same stories he used to tell. She clung to it like a lifeline, believing it was the key to preserving his memory. But one night, something changed. The words on the pages twisted, the ink bled, and before she could react, she was no longer in her bedroom. She was inside the book. Trapped in a kingdom once vibrant but now shrouded in darkness, Talia discovers that the fairytale world her father created is no longer the one she remembers. A curse has twisted its fate, and at the heart of it all lies the shadowy ruler, Soldark-a tyrant with an eerie connection to her past. Now, Talia must navigate this world of elves, mermaids, and sinister creatures, unaware that the very book she treasures is both the key to saving the land... and the chain binding its ruler. Will she fight to preserve the story she once loved, or will she dare to destroy it to uncover the truth?
