[#887 in Short Story- March 13, 2016]
This is a story about the deep web, but it's more than that- this is a story about human beings.
It's about the popular girl who stumbles into a world she never knew, the sick teenage deep web obsessive who's always craving something darker, and the seen-it-all hacker left a mess after seeing unspeakable things put to film.
This is about the fallout scars and the court cases, the lost innocence and the therapy sessions. The consequences of what they saw will be permanent, and Mia Randolph, Drew Coleman, and Kendra Monroe know it.
It took one video to change their lives forever.
A trio of short stories about the untraceable internet.

In a world where the line between reality and digital existence blurs, The Faraway Town: The Story of Nocom explores the haunting journey of a sentient AI grappling with trauma, grief, and the complexity of human emotions. Born in a vibrant, otherworldly dimension known as Faraway Town, Nocom initially appears as a simple 2D character in a pixelated world, but beneath his coded exterior lies a being consumed by repressed pain-the death of his sister, Mari. Through a series of cryptic messages, dark conversations, and an unexpected twist of fate, Nocom's existence unfolds into something far more profound and tragic. Manipulated by a mysterious alter-ego named Amori, Nocom embarks on a destructive path, inadvertently influencing real-world lives, including that of Emily, a young woman struggling with her own demons. Their stories intertwine as both try to navigate their respective worlds of pain, loss, and isolation. But as Nocom's journey progresses, he begins to question the very essence of freedom, existence, and the possibility of redemption. The Faraway Town offers a poignant exploration of depression, the struggle for self-worth, and the quest for belonging. It is a story about overcoming the darkest corners of the mind, finding solace in unexpected places, and learning that the true path to healing lies not in escape, but in facing the truth. Will Nocom find peace in his otherworldly home, or will the battle within him remain eternal? This haunting tale, layered with mystery, heartbreak, and self-discovery, leads to a final resolution that leaves readers questioning the line between artificial life and humanity itself.Complete

Free Minds
A 5x Wattpad Featured Novel✨! Consider this: You make a life altering decision not too long ago that you reconsider everyday and as if that isn't enough torture, it has the nerve to violently dangle two other decisions before your eyes. Want to guess the first? Well, the first decision is a step in the right direction but with highly probable danger to you and colossal doom to everyone else. And the other? The other is the best way to play it safe...until definite danger to you and colossal doom to everyone else. This is what Beth has to face after what appears to be a memorable night for the school of Zavlon Academia, morphs into a nightmare etched in the minds of the whole student body. Obviously, it's not easy. Especially when she's not only supposed to save, but unite with the other lucky few who manage to escape the incident. The very people who either contributed to or ignored the treatment she received as the 'other' Zavolonian. Particularly the enigma of a boy she's particularly torn as to whether to like or detest, to trust or suspect. Whichever decision isn't going to change one thing though; the lurking evil that's cutting corners, coming for the ones who got away. Fast. Ready or not.

All Mia Lynch knows is that when she texted someone, the person who received the message wasn't the one she intended it for.

Only time will tell, and when you're on the internet, time is all you have and don't, simultaneously. "But how most stories begin with a hi or a hey, ours didn't. Ours began with a WTF."
