Becoming a Founding "Father"- Historical Hamilton
Time traveling to the 1760s is as fun as you would've thought it to be. Too bad that I didn't think about it, and now I'm stuck in a foreign time with some orphan child from the Caribbean and no knowledge on how anything works. ---- The fifth of July. Such an average day, compared to the Fourth of July. To her, neither of those dates were supposed to matter, being European and all that. But when she is plunged into a different time, and is made to fight for a country that's not hers, she's wouldn't be surprised if that date will be engraved in her grave. And it is, which is strange, considering she's not dead. She's just... lost. ---- This is historically accurate-ish. I swear I'll fix the mistakes one day, but NOT TODAY BABYY In other words, I didn't find any historical Hamilton time travel fanfiction, so I wrote some myself. (FIRST DRAFT) CONTENT WARNING: This story contains some racist, sexist and homophobic language that reflects the historical time period when it's set.

The Musketeers: Fight For Friendship (English Version) COMPLETED
This story is about five girls who come from different regions, but they all have only one dream and that is to become a musketeer. You probably think why didn't they do that before, well because girls were never allowed to become muskets but now they are!! The girls go through many obstacles: tests to be admitted, family problems, boys!! Problems from their past, but especially discovering themselves and so much more. This story takes place in the past, let me say in the time of the musketeers, but there are also many modern things in it, so it is more or less a mix. So read this exciting and romantic story full of friendship!! Enjoy reading!! Don't forget to press the star after reading each chapter, Thanks in advance!! Keep in mind that english is not my first language, so there may be mistakes in it... Sorry for the inconvenience. XX MinieComplete
