[My NaNoWriMo entry]
In a world where clocks controlled by angels and fairies count down the moment until you meet your true love(s), one boy's has been empty from the moment he was born.
[I have not, and will not, edit anything until one of the last days of November, so this is pure and raw and I am so, so sorry.]
[Update: March and I still haven't edited it.]

H-1 UMAN-1
The year is 2096. Computers, and other recognition software with them, have grown infinitely more powerful since the 2010s. Business is thriving. People are running about, living their lives, and generally enjoying themselves with their new 'smart' devices, which, for better or for worse, are actually living up to their name. Finally. Enter outcast Vincent Schorennherr. Her parents [emphasis on her] parents wanted a boy, no luck on that account, and they let her know that every day. You think that's not so bad? Think again. "Sorry, Vincent, but you're going to school anyways, flu or no flu." Well, just before first period, a 'conveniently'-timed password-entry prompt pops on on her phone screen, right as she: 1) Presses the sensor, and 2): sneezes, spreading rhinoviruses all over herself and her phone. She wipes the phone off and goes to class,thinking nothing more of the incident until the next day, when she goes to turn it on and gets a kill screen: "Fatal Error 81-141. The flu's contagious, didn't you know that? Bye now, gone to play Caesar- Veni, vidi, vici and all that." With that, her phone blinks off, and within hours, other phones begin to follow suit. With panic on the rise, and global tensions rapidly following suit, can Vincent and her friends find the cure before it's hard shutdown? **NaNoWriMo 2017** Complete in the sense that I'll probably never write any more of this story. I might edit it someday, though. I had a decent idea when I started, but that quickly went out the window.Complete
Time's up
What if you had a stop watch counting down every moment till you meet you soul mate? What would you do? Where would u go the day it would run out? What if your soul mate wasn't who you expected? Everyone is born with a eternal stopwatch constantly ticking, counting down the exact moment when you meet your soulmate. It's a small number on your wrist like a tattoo, but you are the only one that can see it. Mine ends in a few days and I am scared out of my mind. What if he is a jerk? Or what if all he wants is sex? Or what if he rejects me? I don't know what I am going to do! I turned around and was meet with the softest lips on the planet. We kissed softly at first but it became more and more passionate. He pulled me onto his lap facing him. My legs were wrapped around his waist and he never broke the kiss. His tongue grazed mine and I gladly granted entrance. He ran his hands up and down my bare legs and stomach giving me chills. I placed my hands on his chest. We pulled away breathless but Jack trailed hot kisses down my neck. That is my absolute number one weak spot. If a guy kisses my neck I am completely screwed. I will do anything and I completely melt. "I-i... " I stuttered trying to focus and he began sucking on my sweet spot as I was fully aware of his 'little friend' who was poking my ass and wanted to join the party. "Jack, st- stop. " I stammered out. I pushed him away from me and he pulled back looking really confused.Complete
The Countdown
Ten minutes left on the clock that was attached to my wrist as a baby. We're all given them, and while I'm not entirely sure how they work, they've yet to be wrong. Some people never get to meet their soul mates, their other half dies before they get the chance. When this happens your clock stops, and while it never falls off your wrist, it never continues the countdown either. We're not allowed to date anyone who isn't our soulmate, it's a rule. And once you've touched your soulmate for the first time, a small mark that is unique to your relationship appears on your wrist, a mark that binds you to that person forever. Nine minutes left until I meet the person I'm destined to be with forever... I don't own the AcademyComplete
Marking Ceremony
The last girl was just checked in. Now the count down begins. 5.... This is how it works, us girls run into a building and go to different locations. 4....

Than they take you out of the building and show us off to everyone as theirs.1.... And that is now why, my sister, my bestfriend, and I kicked off our heels and are now running, full on sprinting into this beautiful huge building. And we are not coming out until we are claimed. Willingly or not..... This is the Marking Ceremony.Complete

The Final Countdown
Everyone is born with a countdown on their wrist. It counts down to the time you meet your soulmate. This is how I met my soulmate. ------------------------------------------------------------ "I wanna look at my countdown," I look up in shock. He has never cared about his soul mate. "You do?" I ask. "Yep." He answers. "Me too..." "I think we should." "Wanna do it together?" I ask. "1..." "2..." "3..." We rip off our covers at the same time. They were at 1... now 0. -�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�-�- I know my story is crap, don't need to tell me.Complete
Polar Opposite
He was my exact opposite but hey opposites attract right? You know how some people believe in soul mates? Well in my world everyone knows they are real. When you turn 18 you can hear your soul mate a.k.a tap into their thoughts. And even if you've known your soul mate your entire life you won't know until the first time you see them either on or after your 18th birthday and it is like love at first sight. But you will be attracted to them because they are meant for you so of course you will find them attractive. But imagine my surprise when the person made for me was my polar opposite.Complete
my second chance (Haikyuu au)
This is a haikyuu soulmate au. The way the soulmates work is they will get a colour stripe on their dominant wrist, the colour will be their soulmates favourite colour and will be scented like their soulmate. Their soulmate's initials will be engraved in with the stripe. if the initials are white then the soulmate is platonic and if the initials are black then the soulmate is romantic however this can change but that is very rare. The stripe appears at birth. It is possible for someone to not get a stripe but some people can get a delayed soulmate and develop their stripe later but not all. If the soulmate is romantic, then the soulmate will stay true to the persons sexuality. If the soulmate gets hurt the person will be able to sense where (if its physical pain). Mental pain works slightly differently so for example, their soulmate is going through grief, they can feel ever so slightly what the soulmate is feeling so sometimes people can be found suddenly tearing up, even in the happiest of moments, of sadness. If the soulmate is uncomfortable or has been harassed, the person will get visions of it almost like looking back on a memory. when soulmates kiss their stripes will glow slightly.Complete
