I had never been a situation like this.
Never.
I had watched movies and perhaps read a couple of books but never had I ever heard about natural disasters occurring in sequence.
That's irregular.
Unheard of.
And while I was running for my life, I had the sudden realization that, no, this wasn't just a tsunami and an earthquake.
This had turned into an apocalypse.

Venetia lives in a peaceful city in California, she always loved to watch the waves crash against the shores. She loved her school and she always found herself looking outside the window to see the sparkling sun shining on the soothing water. She loved the feeling of the wind against her face, and the warmth of toasty fire. But one day, something she loved so much became something she found herself constantly running from.

Caught By Flames (Kyojuro Rengoku x Reader)
Scars. Many had formed on the child's body as she listened to her family get ripped to shreds. The mountain whispered in the cold night, it told her to run and not to stop. It was the voice of her mother, even her older brother, and it echoed in her mind despite the growing pain of falling and getting thrown down multiple times. Demons. It was unbelievable. Well until she saw it with her own eyes. How? Why? Attacked. Her family was attacked by a demon. They told her to run. So she did. She ran and ran and ran. She was injured, but ran. So many questions filled her head, but she ran like her family told her too. Suddenly, a man saved her from another attack. It was fast and wielded fire with his blade. Who was he? A Demon Slayer. Why had he come? To save people from the beast, but she was the only one to save if he could save her from such injuries. She was younger than his son, but thought they'd get along well... so he killed the demon and quickly took the girl to one of his fellow peers, someone who could actually help. When she woke up... she saw a boy, a few years older than her. He seemed bright and caring, something new for the girl. What happens after that? What troubles will the girl face after that incident? Is there more to this than everyone believed? ________________________ I don't own the cover or the original story or plot. I do own my own plot and characters. Hope you enjoy!!

Waveborn
Cass has no memories of her parents, only impossible dreams of waves and orcas and, sometimes, her mother's voice. When she and her adopted aunt return to the Pacific Northwest island--where her parents died twelve years before--Cass hopes the place will trigger long-buried memories. Instead, she discovers that the impossible is real, and that history is about to repeat itself. Unless she can stop it. ***Teaser*** The water hit with such a shock of cold that Cass thought she was going to pedal up and out of it again like some cartoon character. Instead, she flailed and splashed and smashed one arm against a piling as salt water poured into her raincoat & filled her shoes. "How do you like it?" Jason yelled. She spun until she could make out his form, black against gray sky. "What?" she sputtered. She dragged one arm from the water long enough to shove wet hair from her face. Jason became clearer: black hair dark above his yellow raincoat, arms crossed over his chest. "What the hell are you talking about?" "I asked how you like it, going for a swim in this water." She was open-mouthed with disbelief. It was a bad idea; a surge lifted her and slapped salt water into her mouth. Bile burned her throat as she coughed and all the while she was still flailing at the water, fighting the drag of shoes and clothes to keep afloat. She should kick them off-that's what you were supposed to do if you fell into the ocean with your clothes on-but she was only a dozen feet from the dock. Besides, it was her only coat. Jason watched her the way she'd watch a barracuda. "I know you're following me." "Following you?" What. The. Hell. She gave a mighty kick and tossed her coat onto the dock. Jason just stood there. "I nearly drowned last week, you know that? Now you show up as if nothing happened." "Last week," Cass said slowly, "I was in Argentina." Whatever he'd seen, it wasn't her.Complete

Worlds Apart [COMPLETE]
Nothing could compare to the way her gaze made me feel. The flames licking my skin and the raging fire in my veins was way more bearable. The moment our eyes connected, it was like my body found a new kind of flame. The kind that only she was able to draw from me. I've never felt my body being set ablaze like this before. One day here in this new town and I was already losing my mind over my new neighbour. A really pretty, hot neighbour. Her long, wavy platinum blonde hair, pale skin and icy blue eyes that seemed to stare depths into my soul and keep me frozen in place. I couldn't seem to leave. Her pink lips were parted slightly as she tried to catch her breath. I swallowed. One step forward and I could hold her. One tilt of my head and I could kiss her lips. If only I could have a taste of those lips- I have to get out of here. I turned and left, my heart nearly overpowering my brain to stop and go back to her. Only one thought kept me going. Who could ever love a monster? -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ Hey guys! I'm back with a new story and I've had this idea in my head for quite some time and I'm glad to finally be posting it! Firstly, I got inspiration for this book from a Korean drama called "Goblin" and it's one of the best dramas I've come across after so long. Secondly, no reuploading or copying or plagiarising or whatever it is that is illegal because I will slice your neck and leave you hanging to die :) Jk, maybe. Not really. Thirdly, please enjoy this book and leave comments! Sincerely, Janice GoldShaken *Created, Published & Completed in Year 2017* (Editing Complete ~2018)Complete

BOI i was like twelve when i wrote this and it's so cringy looking back at it, i apologize in advANCE IF YOU ARE STARTING THIS ITS JUST SO CRINGE --------- it has been brought up to my attention about the new Wattpad guidelines. I will write it in here and the chapters that feature some obscure/unhealthy actions, as trigger warnings. I do not condone nor want to glorify any events that happen in this book or any other of my books, so please do not believe I think it's okay. It's not okay. As a person who has been through depression and so forth, I am here for those who want to talk about it. There are also multiple online references/resources, if you are uncomfortable with discussing what is wrong. It's alright and there is help you can seek in multiple forms. Please be safe and remember that nothing can destroy what you have in your heart. You are special and I love you. There are multiple trigger warnings (self-harm, depression, abuse from others) in this story. Thank you for reading this. xx Description: Two worlds colliding. Is that what this would be called, or was it fate? Whatever this was defined as, it definitely changed multitudinous lives. Tabitha Ellis, a fourteen year old girl, has moved all the way from Melbourne, Australia (or wherever you want her to live, this is a fanfiction, but that was where I felt it was right), to LA. One of her first adventures here, was to visit the beach - and, so she did! But not without having an encounter with the one and only; Trevor Moran. One fall could be the cause of a huge mess of massive proportions, positive and negative. Is always going to last forever.... or will something, perhaps someone, get in the way of that?Complete
