Cockneys vs Pirates 

The greatest prize at the London 2012 Olympics isn't gold. . . it's the Holy Grail. There's a rumour there's treasure buried beneath the 2012 Olympic site. And that a secret army is going to find it. Only nobody believes it. But when a mysterious group of pirates move to the East End, people become suspicious. And when Cockneys start disappearing, the Pearly King demands answers. But that's the least of Oscar's worries - all he wants to do is kill some cockroaches. The problem is, he's using a chemical weapon to do it. And he has to get rid of it before the police find out.

Every Day in May (grand prize winner) ✔ by amberkbryant

***WINNER of the "BREATHTAKING: A FANTASY AND SCIENCE FICTION NOVEL WRITING COMPETITION!" "You are a secret kept from the world, but not from me." So begins the peculiar message found slipped under a bedroom door on the morning of May first. Theo is the heir to a powerful dictatorship. The number of people allowed to know he exists is few. He has spent his entire life walled up in the Tower, the looming stone monolith from which his father rules over the Land. Merryn is the daughter of political prisoners. She's known who Theo is longer than he would think possible, and she is taking a great risk contacting him via handwritten notes in order to convince him he deserves more than the fate his father has designed for him. She has one month to exchange daily messages with him, to answer his questions and open his eyes to the realities of a world he has never been allowed to see. A revolution is coming to the Land at the end of the month, and if Merryn's notes fail to get their point across, Theo may never live to see the sunrise on June first. A/N: The following letters were originally published each day from May 1st-31st, 2014. As you will see,Theo is allowed to write down a question for Merryn each evening, but you, the reader, won't see these within the body of the story. It may or may not be obvious from Merryn's response what Theo is asking. Part of the fun is guessing what his questions might be, but if you really want to know what they are, a list of those questions is at the end of the story. This story is a re-imagining of Rapunzel. Now, without further ado-I believe a young heir is about to unfold a slip of paper found on the tile floor near his door... Let's see what it says!

BBC Sherlock Holmes and the Nightshot Experiment (COMPLETE) by CLIreland

"The universe is rarely lazy enough to deliver a coincidence, especially one in plain sight. When something is so eager to be spotted then it would hardly be polite to ignore it" Something ghastly is occurring in the shadows of London. Three people have died and the cause of their death is unrecognizable, the only link found is a series of threatening letters sent directly to each of the diseased. With Mycroft stumped and the British Government in peril it's up to the consulting detective and his blogger to solve the case before time runs out. With the murderers motives and methods opaque Sherlock finds himself rapped up in a mystery that is not only perplexing but emotional in a way that he could never have imagined. Will the team solve their most personal case to date? Or will they too fall victim to the illustrious Nightshot Experiment? THE GAME IS ON! (Contains mild Adlock) DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ANY CHARACTERS EXCEPT FOR MY OWN. SHERLOCK IS COPYRIGHT OF THE BBC AND ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE. I'm always looking for feedback so if you see any mistakes like typos, grammar, spelling ect then please let me know! If you have any advice for how I could improve the story or any plot holes then I would love you to tell me :) Thank you :)

Pen Pals [Cedric Diggory] by notoriousnika

After five years of Hogwarts, Cedric thought he had the school year routine in his control, but then two stupid decisions make his sixth year a lot more interesting and harder to get through. Forget about the Tournament (which he actually entered because of a dare), more importantly, he found himself a pen pal through an assignment and he doesn't even know who he's writing to. To win a bet, Cedric has to find this mystery girl before she finds him and he has to do it without being too blatantly obvious. ----------------- [Cedric Diggory] year of 1994

"if you've got something to ask me, george, just get on with it." he stares at her blankly. "you know it's me. you can actually tell me and freddie apart." "of course i can." elizabeth's eyes fixate on her fingers, fiddling with each other in front of her. "i mean, you look very similar, but there's some clear differences."

Games We Play by Radhavi

Victore Academy boarding school is a lot of things. To the outside world, it's the heaven of schools. For some students, it's an experience they'll never forget. For others, it's the place to start their careers. And maybe for a few, it's the peak of their lives and really as good as it's going to get for them. And for me... well, I'll need a bit more than this to talk about that. But before you step in, here's a few things that everyone makes note of: 1. The students have secrets. And money. It's hard to tell what more of, honestly. 2. Don't get a room on the West Side of the girl's dorms. The birds around that private property lake house downside from campus don't stop chirping at 5AM. It's unpleasant, to say the least. 3. Avoid Mr. Labadee's classroom at all costs outside of lessons, especially past fifth period. It's better off if you're left in the dark with this one. 4. That asshole from Spain that terrorizes all the young freshmen is not hot. However, girls do make note of the fact that he works out post seventh period and right before first, near the track field. 5. The Victor's Tournament happens every year for all the senior year students. It's a pretty big deal. 6. And I think Armin Rivers is probably going to kill someone before he wins it (and it's probably gonna be that Spanish asshole). cover by soundthealarm
