Somewhere I lost my flip-flops in the slick grass. The moonlight that shone through cast an eerie glow on the trees above. I started up the hill through the dense fog. Once I slipped my way up to the tree line, I started running again. I didn't want them finding me...

    We have been on the run for days now. The safety of my children is my priority. I was betrayed in the worst way, and I could not watch him hurt us any longer. I never saw my life going this way but here I am running for my life and my children's. This was the last bus stop, and I had a choice to make. I hope that I would not make the wrong one. He could find us at any moment and I imagine him dragging me all the way back by my hair. I didn't know who to trust but sometimes you just have to take a leap. Maybe, with a little luck, I will find the one thing I have been missing and be saved. One could dream, but for now, I'll keep running.

    The Void's Protector: Nova Fire
    I ran faster against the blinding snowy wind, down the street to my street. I wiped off some of the snow on my face but I saw the thins behind me. Their blue eyes and sharp teeth glowed in the light of each street lamp. They sprinted behind me, I kept hoping my house would pop up anytime now. I can't call for help because my phone is dead and its nighttime. I saw a familiar scorch mark on the sidewalk and slid into a turn. I reached for the door but, they blocked it. I backed away, one by one I saw blue eyes surround me and get closer. I looked at the picture of me and everyone before I took out my swords, I shoved it back in my pocket. They stalked closer, if I'm going down....I'm taking them all with me.. *****Hey guys!! If your reading this and know SpiritAdara3's account please don't say I stole it.

    "You don't like it rough?" he asks me. Oh, okay, I smirk back at him, two can play this game. "I like it... but only during sex, " I say to him watching as his smirk drops and eyes widen just for a split second. "What? Didn't expect that?" I ask putting on extra sweetness to my tone. I move closer to him, going on my tiptoes so my lips are just barely grazing his ear. "But usually I like to be the one doing the pulling, " I whisper to him and brush my fingers through the hair at the back of his head and yank, hard. He hisses and I let go laughing. ------------- Axel is a 21 years old creative arts student that struggles with love. Love is a foreign word to him. He never felt it before neither received it. With a rough childhood that still haunts him to present times and a girl that enters his life unexpectedly, things are only getting more complicated for him in relation to love.

    I have revamped the story please let me know how you like it I was sitting alone in the park, looking out over the frozen lake, watching the sun set. When I heard something behind me, *Snap* that made me jump, (it was hard not to). As the crackling sounds of leaves, and twigs under a heavy foot, it was larger than myself but also never said I was very big.

    "This is a nightmare, it's only a nightmare..." I say to myself as I try to catch my breath while leaning against a tall pine tree. Only for a moment do I stay in that position until I hear a twig snap. I quickly leap away from the tree and run as fast as I can. "Wake up (Y/N)! just wake up!!!" I think to myself. "You are awake my dear..." I hear that voice. That damn voice. "GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!" I scream. I continue to run past trees and hopping over large rocks. The mist in the air begins to get thicker as I continue this race. "Why me? out of all the people this had to happen to me!" my brain races with thoughts until my foot gets caught by a tree root sticking out of the ground. I fall hitting my head on a rock. My vision is blurry and I can feel a warm liquid begin to stream down my face. "My dear (Y/N), look what you have done to yourself. You shouldn't have tried to run away." the voice goes through my head again. I look around and see nothing but trees. "LEAVE ME ALONE!!!" My voice begins to grow sore from the constant running and yelling. The sound of leaves crunching comes from behind me and I whip my head around until my eyes are met with him. "My dear (Y/N), you've made quite the mess of yourself. You know you are not aloud to leave......now you'll have to be punished." The figure says without any facial expression or motion. The figure begins to walk forward towards me. I try to back away until my vision becomes black and all I can hear is static.

    I sloshed through the rain,cursing at the noises I was making. A purple light whizzed through the air,hitting the tree to my left. I swerved to the right and slammed headfirst into a tree. Gods I hate this forest, my "HOME". I flipped up off the floor and started running again "You know we can't just let you leave,at least not alive",she responds.

    Long Time No See [Book 2, to OEIF]
    This is the sequel to, "Our Existence is Forbidden." So I run. My magic energy is so damn low but I have to do this. "Hurry!" "I know dammit!" I groan. The sun begins to rise above the horizon. "I need more time you stupid sun!" I yell. I reach the top of the hill and begin to place them around each white gem, the sun rising and rising. "13th in the middle." "Ok ok ok ok.." I say as I place it in the middle. "Your blood needs to make a circle around it." The sun was getting higher. "The sun is rising!" Gray calls out. "I KNOW. I CAN SEE!" I yell back and take a hard bite at my thumb and begin to draw the circle. Started: 12-7-2020 Finished: 1-4-2021 *DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of the characters, just the story line*
