Skye wanted to see something beautiful

Tori wanted to impress her friends

Z didn't wanna be there 

Dillion changed his mind

Shane didn't want anything to change  

The first solar storm for a thousand years arrives, only visible in Norfolk, astronema woods. 
Despite being warned by everyone not to risk it, Skye Hillard convinces her friends to dare a visit during the solar storm. 
Sitting, staring into the sun, Skye has never felt so alive, the reflection of the Suns light cascading across the woods.
But how were they to know, that night, would change everything

The gift the storm had given them 

But was it really a gift ...

The sun rises on a new dawn, yet few of us realize the debt we owe to those responsible for this, to those who dwell among us, anonymous, seemingly ordinary, who destiny brought together to repair, to heal, to save us from ourselves, and they're still out there among us, in the shadows, in the light, we pass them on the street without a glance, never suspecting, never knowing. Do they even know yet? That they are bound together by a common purpose? A glaring reality, to be extraordinary, and when destiny does anoint them, how do they hide from it? 

How long can they dwell in the shadows before fate draws them out into the light? 

 And how will they know what awaits them when it does?


Blurb for chapter 6 onwards 

"Just because you expect us to be heroes, doesn't mean we have to"

The group of friends never knew that a simple night at the woods would change there life forever

Now they know what they are, but what could they become?

With the unstable June by there side, and unknown threat with unseen objectives and secret powers, do they even stand a chance?

Will they have to step into the darkness, to save the light...

The blood had already leaked down my forehead, but I kept my eyes on Shane and tried to blink quickly to clear my vision. "Hang on, please. Please hang on." He pleaded, holding my body up to a sitting position. I couldn't even remember what had struck me and I was getting nervous by Shane's worried face. "I'm... it hurts." I mumbled. "I'm so sorry." He held me closer. This time tears started to form in his dark green eyes but I could tell Shane didn't want to cry in front of me. My head started to feel more dizzy and I had to give in and close my eyes, much to Shane's dismay and his protests. I probably should've just listened to him from the start when he said don't go outside in this weather, but me being pissy with him and wanting to prove a point- I did and now I'm laying on the wet grass with a gash on my temple and an even bigger one on my leg. "We'll get you to Harvey." Shane said. I could hear his voice break at the end. He picked me up and started walking. "Please wake up." I wanted to so badly but I was exhausted from the hike and spending the night in the cold and shivering for hours. Shane's warm hands under my back and legs already felt way better. "This is all my fault. The one good thing to happen in my life...." Shane let out a sob but never stopped walking. I just wanted to hug him and tell him everything was going to be alright. I could feel the blood still tripping down my leg and face, so I knew I couldn't make false promises but Shane needed me. He needs me. I'm his anchor, I'm the girl he leans on when he's feeling like he's losing. I have to do this. I opened my eyes again. --CW-- Swearing Abuse Drinking NSFW Blood Painful backstories Book cover was done by me but I used a reference from stardewvalleycowboy because i've never drawn Shane before ^^.

𝗜'𝗺 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲; 𝗮𝗺 𝗜? ❞ I stare out across the horizon, watching the nearly third quarter moon as its gentle light sweeps across the night sky; elegant swirls of cobalt clouds drifting amongst an endless sea of stars. My eyelids flutter shut. I breathe in deeply, bracing myself for what is to come. * ☾ * It feels like it was only yesterday that he was soaring across the rooftops of New York; his biggest secret yet - the one that seems to be at the center of all the unusual happenings shrouding this new part of his life - only distantly confusing him. But that was truly months ago. And before that fateful night was back when the youngest brother thought he knew exactly where he belonged, who (what?) he was, and who he would become. The voyagers have made it to the City of Light. But in order to stand a chance in completing the Prophecy of Kuda and defeating Jei once and for all, there is much more left to face. The journey that seems to have gone on for ages has only just begun. And he's never felt more alone. // EDITED description.

"I've been burned once, who is to say it will not happen again" I spoke quietly watching her closely. Grace confused me like no other she wormed her way into my heart with her easy-going smiles, kind nature, and gentle heart. Feeling her small hands hold my large ones I glance down into her green eyes "You need to trust that I am not Mia have I not proven to you Cassian, I am here to stay you fit with me" she said in a gentle yet firm tone. The smile she sent me held love, comfort and that was all it took after months of breaking down the walls I decided to take a leap of faith. *********************************************** Cassian Grey had been burned once and that was enough for him after sharing a business deal with his four other brothers they opened up The Grey Gull on the coast of Cornwall, England. A fresh start is what these guys needed and a fresh start is what they will get. Grace Bauer is an art historian with her own little gallery where she brings long-forgotten pieces of beauty back to life. She too had been burned so when she hears of this bar and grill opening up she knows her friends are just dying to try it out. What both of these souls don't realize is that once thrown in each other's paths they soon realize that maybe just maybe they are what the other half needs in one another. It may take a little more convincing on Cassian's part but can he take that leap of faith and trust Grace.

A world where Scott and Stiles have female versions of them selves that they don't know exist. What happens when the duos meet up? (Mature for violence, intense emotional themes, and language) ***Sneak Peak*** Winnie came back handing her friend the extra apple she always got her in exchange for the extra water. As Sky took the apple it started to sizzle. Sky dropped it startled and the girls looked at each other confused. "Okay what the fuck," Winnie asked. Sky just poked the apple again and it still heated up the fruit just not to the same extent as before. "Skyler, why is your skin burning fruit and mine isn't," Winnie asked in a hushed whisper. "How the fuck should I know," Skyler asked her friend. She was starting question if this was all just a weird dream. It had to be. Right? Winnie was now trying to poke the apple to see if it would react to her the same way before nudging it to her friend and watching it heat up a little before Skyler pulled her hand away. "Winnie," she scolded really starting to freak out. "What? It was for science purposes. Multiple trials," Winnie responded. "What the hell is happening to me," Sky asked worried. "Maybe you have super powers," Winnie proposed. "Maybe I'm dying from some weird chemical reaction," Skyler pointed out. "Always so negative. Try to look on the up side sometimes," Winnie teased. "What if I'm dying," Skyler asked worried. "It was nice knowing you," Winnie said jokingly. That wasn't what the girl needed to hear. "Look," Winnie interjected realizing she wasn't helping, "You aren't dying. We can google it and find out what's going on I'm sure there's a reason." Sky nodded quietly. She didn't know what else to do. Something was wrong with her. Something in her said it had to do with that beast they saw.

A LIGHT THAT NEVER COMES

12 parts Complete Mature

"Meeting you.. it was my destiny." ---------- (excerpt from chapter iii - diligence) "Do you know anypony that you immediately clicked with? Somepony you easily developed an unbreakable bond with," Destiny asked, trying not to sound desperate. "Just Ruby and Moony," Sparkling Swirl answered, seeming confused. "Why? Does that part matter?" "Yes, that's the most important part," Destiny retorted. "I discovered recently, based on my mother's discarded journals, that I represent the Virtue of Diligence. Upon further research, I discovered that all Seven Virtues will click instantly and form an unbreakable bond upon meeting." "I did just instantly trust you," Moonstar said, his voice now laced with a 'buggy' effect. It was as if a fly was buzzing and had a voice. Destiny wasn't disturbed. "That's my point," Destiny said, looking at Star. "I've known Star since I was a colt, and I've always trusted him no matter way." "Also could've been because I was the only pony you knew, Young Master," Star said, his horn lighting a crimson red. "Then again, you struggled to trust any other servant, so I can guess why you think I'm a Virtue." ~ This book is to remain on Wattpad, Equestria Amino, Ao3, and my YouTube.
