WHISPERS IN THE DARK
STORY REDONE- **Prologue** "Callie, no, don't!" His voice cracks with desperation as bullets scream past me, the room erupting in chaos. I catch sight of a masked figure darting toward a narrow exit, and without a second thought, I sprint after him, pushing through the acrid haze of gunpowder. The hallway stretches before me like a black void, illuminated only by sporadic flickers of malfunctioning lights. Each step I take echoes ominously, my senses on high alert. The heavy thud of my footsteps seems unnaturally loud in the oppressive silence that surrounds me. As I advance, a cold chill grips my spine, and an unsettling premonition takes hold. My instincts scream at me to stop, but the figure is just ahead, a tantalizing promise of answers within reach. I turn a corner, and everything changes in an instant. Without warning, a searing pain explodes at the base of my skull. I stagger, my vision blurring, as my legs buckle. The hallway spins, a whirl of darkness closing in around me. And then, **Darkness.** In the void, I drift, unmoored and disoriented. The silence is deafening, punctuated only by the echoes of my racing thoughts. The terror of what's to come grips me tighter than any physical pain. Each breath is labored, each heartbeat a reminder of the precarious edge I'm teetering on. A sliver of light cuts through the black, and I catch a glimpse of shadows moving just beyond my reach. The realization crashes over me: this isn't just an ambush-it's a trap, meticulously crafted and more dangerous than I ever imagined. With every moment that slips away, the stakes climb higher, and the true nature of the threat remains just out of sight, shrouded in the depths of an intricate conspiracy. The game has changed, and I'm left to navigate a labyrinth of deception and peril. What started as a chase now threatens to unravel everything I hold dear. And as the darkness closes in, one thing becomes chillingly clear: the real battle has only just begun.Complete

Blaze and the Mafia -Wattys 2016-
Highest ranking: #1 in action First in Mafia series. As I felt the chloroform pressed against my mouth I kicked back, sending the guy flying to the floor. "Michael," I yell, pulling on his arm, "you gotta get up, ok?" Reluctantly, he begins to run with me into the Forrest. I pull him quickly as he recovers from the fall, despite feeling drowsy from the chloroform. The man must have recovered by now and chances are he's gaining on us at lightning speed. I feel Michael catch himself under his feet and speed up having recovered from the fall. He looks to me, "Split up?" I nod knowing exactly what he's thinking. There's only one of him and two of us, he can't take us both out. Just as we approach the lake, we split, confusing the man. He had stopped and was watching us both run away, probably evaluating which one of us he had a better chance with. I turn back to look where I'm going when I hear a loud bang. I scream. Pain flares up in my lower leg as though something bit me. The bullet ripped through my leg but stopped as I clearly have no exit wound. Expecting the man to have almost caught up with me, I look up only to see his back as he runs after Michael. *** 18 year old Blaze is kidnapped and taken from her home town along with her best friend Michael.
