Clackers
There is nothing as powerful in life as your first love. When this happens after clacking to a strange new world where people reverse age-let's say it's complicated. Demalynn is a seventeen-year-old girl from a small town who one day hears a loud 'clack' and is transported to the planet Saffire. Naked. Then things really get weird. No child has ever been born on Saffire; clackers make up the entire population. All people who clack under thirty reverse age: each year they grow younger. As an awkward teenager plagued by panic attacks who dabbles in comedy, Demalynn just wants to go home to be re-united with her family. Citizens over thirty grow old and are forced to mine the mineral that powers giant cooling stations to keep the planet habitable. Citizens solve disputes with gladiatorial combat. The prophesy of The Coming In Saffire's time of greatest need, a child will be born to a special woman, the Gravidarum. The child, who has no father of this planet, will be known as the Unum, a child to lead Saffire. The Helper will battle to keep the Gravidarum safe until the Unum is born. The people of Saffire have been waiting to see The Coming fulfilled. Demalynn assembles a group of clackers to get her home, the most important of which is a fellow clacker: eighteen-year-old Aiden. It is not long before Jago, the ruler of Saffire, learns that a woman on Saffire is pregnant and he unleashes all his power to prevent the birth. Jago will not give up power. Demalynn is surprised to find out she is the Helper, but is astounded to learn the identity of the Gravidarum. Demalynn must battle to stay alive and fumbles towards the realization that Aiden is much more than a close friend. She is certain, with the certainty that only a seventeen-year-old can possess, that Aiden is her only true love. Demalynn is desperate to find a way back home until she must make a choice: stay with Aiden on Saffire or go back home and re-unite her family. There's no place like home.Complete

Lil' Red and her Umbrella
Lil' Red and her Hellhound take an unexpected path, becoming missionaries of chaos-assassins sworn to the silent, merciless ground called Death, a name as chilling as it is apt. This unlikely crew is composed of a girl wielding a scythe as her divine weapon, another who commands a monstrous hound with terrifying ease, and a boy who bends time to his will. The boy's power is a marvel and a terror-he can hasten your clock to the moment of your demise, stretch it so far that aging becomes a forgotten concept, or reverse it entirely to rewrite moments carved in stone. As time passes, Lil' Red's arrival on the desolate ground doesn't go unnoticed. She learns to endure, to survive at all costs, with no understanding of her weapon's origin or its mysterious function. None of it mattered, though, save for the simple fact that her heart continued beating. By a twist of fate-or was it?-Red encounters Enjin. Their meeting is tumultuous; what begins as a clash of enemies morphs into something far more complicated. The truth, hidden in the shadows, reveals this meeting wasn't an accident but a deliberate crossing of paths. Over time, the tension between them shifts into a bond that feels inevitable, dangerous, and undeniable. In her journey, Red comes to a sobering conclusion: it doesn't matter where you stand-on a glowing white sphere in the sky or the infernal furnace of the ground below. War, love, life, death-these universal forces are mirrors, reflecting the duality of existence. Every place, every being, and even the inanimate-whether breathing or still, divine or damned-is equal parts good and evil, beautiful and monstrous. In this fractured yet united cosmos, Lil' Red keeps moving, a soul inextricably tied to both chaos and survival. Would she find her answer in love, or was the war within and around her the only fate awaiting her? Only time-and the boy who mastered it-could tell. (Warning hard subjects and deep descriptions reads advised.)
