Purgatory is a strange place. With the apocalypse about to hit Earth, people are dying everywhere, and it's only about to get worse. But oddly enough, no one in Purgatory really seems to leave. Life (or rather, death) there has become a routine, which much of it resembling life on Earth. Of course, conductors on trains giving judgement to the recently deceased isn't exactly normal, and neither is the circus that appeared almost out of nowhere. And with the dread of the end of the world looming over everyone, truth and morals will blur into an unclear mess that could destory purgatory itself. Stolen souls, the residents of purgatory, and all other mysterious entities residing there are in the middle of a constant battle between life and the afterlife. But they're all about to find out that they may be pawns in a game that is much bigger than their existence, and if they lose, the consequences could be grimmer than anyone could have imagined.

What would you do if tomorrow morning, everybody in the entire world vanished? If you're anything like my brother and I you'd probably jump for joy. We certainly did, all you can eat pizza for the very reasonable price £0. In the first moment it is heaven, but then you realise the true cost. Your friends; gone! Your family; gone! And all that is left is the pain. Rocky and Chase explore their empty world determined to make it back home as they search for their lost mother and 12 year old sister Kayleigh. With an empty world this might seem a hopeless task but try telling that to two orphan brothers. When you wait that long for a mum you don't let little things like 'disappearing' stop you from getting her back. Unfortunately for the maladjusted boys some of the people who disappeared have come back, and they have, let's say 'changed.' That's ok though, these boys have never shied away from a fight in their life! But when the last girl on earth actually might actually be your soul mate it's a new kind of pain for Rocky to watch her fall for his brother. His fists have gotten him through life up to now, so it's hard to accept that the key to finding his Mum and solving this mystery might mean facing his feelings. It's one thing to fight the actual monsters around you but beating the ones on the inside is the true battle. A battle both Rocky and Chase must conquer if they are ever to see their Mum or sister again, a battle they must win if they are ever truly to have a family. Sometimes saving other people starts with saving yourself, will Rocky's journey be similar to your own? Let's find out...

Humanity have always questioned their mortality. The world; riddled with disease and crime, each day gifted with a sense of dread. "I'm getting older." Humans have evolved, fought wars, overcome the impossible and survived as a species, until now. Now that they question death and what comes after. Among the humans are a group of people, hiding in plain sight. Those that inexplicably are able to connect with their souls on an entirely different level to most. They have no name, hidden purely by disbelief, in a society that doubts those that are different. How do you name something that you refuse to acknowledge exists? The Misvan Gatu is an underground government controlled by an unknown force. It is their mission to find a cure for the death of a soul, not caring who they may destroy in the process. Misguided and twisted by an evil unknown they are driven by the need to know more about the afterlife. Breaking down barriers and finding answers to questions best left unasked. If the soul could be transferred then that human life could continue, couldn't it? And if there was a way of stopping death and harnessing the power of the human soul what else could we accomplish? This is where faith and science began to work together. Already you must understand that the two are not compatible? Book one in a trilogy of short novellas.

The Fallen Angel by ShaniquaHill09
18 parts Ongoing Mature
The world is full of corruption, tragedy, and disaster. Rape, murder, embezzlement, human trafficking. You name it. There is nothing humans won't do for money, power or self-gratification. More than that it always seems that the downtrodden and the good-natured always suffer the most. The cherry on top? All this suffering is supposed to be rewarded in heaven when you die...if you make it there that is. Sounds ridiculous, right? Don't worry you aren't alone. My name is Jasmine Peters and I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired as the world around me crumbles while Sky Daddy watches from his ivory tower. I was cursed with the ability to read minds and now I'm owning this curse on my own terms and saving whoever I can with it. If God won't help us... I will. Gabriel: I'll never understand The Almighty's infatuation with these creatures. Humans demand so much, but yet they give so little and whatever they are given they destroy. The audacity of this human especially leaves me particularly annoyed. She dares to defy divinity and scoffs in the face of The Almighty when it was divinity that has gifted her with the ability to do so in the first place. Only a creature as lost as a human would be given a gift and label it a curse. Nonetheless, as the hand of The Almighty, I will do as I am asked by tending the flock and heard this lost sheep back to pasture. As troublesome as she may be, I fear there is something much more sinister at play and she appears to be at the epicenter of this chaos.

"Everyone owns a dark side, hidden from the world" Moon Goddess Moon Goddess is known as the kindest deity and the protector of wolves. She imbued wolves with her soul and power. She adores all wolves, regardless of their rank. She gave every wolf in the world a mate. Mates are a wolf's destiny. The Moon Goddess blessed each wolf with a mate because a mate held a piece of their soul. A mate keeps a wolf calm and composed. Only a mate can control the beast of a werewolf. Without a mate, a wolf can lose his sanity and transform into the human form of a werewolf. But what if a wolf decides to oppose her? He rejects his mate and falls in love with a forbidden clan woman, with whom he mates. This is an insult to her. However, she did not punish them because she knew fate would punish them severely. True to her words, the wolf's chosen mate dies while giving birth to two stunning twin sisters. One of them was taken by the woman's clan. However, the wolf is successful in saving the elder one, "Olivia Hart". Instead of punishing the wolf and his mate, Moon Goddess chose to punish their innocent daughters. She decided to punish them in the most interesting way. She sees opportunity in them. An opportunity to fulfill an old promise while also granting her wishes. It is like killing three birds with one stone. Nonetheless, her selfish actions ruined some lives... ..................
