(I wrote this at 6 a.m. #NoSleepWriting. Sorry for the poor grammar)
The sun is setting and every minute that passes I grow more and more weary. The horizon painted with hues of red and orange is slowly being overtaken by the looming darkness of the night. The slow shift of the amount of light beaming from the sun into nothing, is frightening. Darkness is frightening. Surviving until dawn is a goal which resets itself nightly. The eerie presence that envelopes the world bring about things. Things that contain hearts reflecting the color of the night. Danger fills the earth as these things freely wander. But when the sunlight finally cracks the ever so solid blackness. a sigh of relief escapes my body. However the feeling of security doesn't last, for when the sun rises it must eventually set. Thus repeating the endless cycle of dark and light, of fear and relief, and of death and life.

The Taste of Blood
"I'm not afraid of you," I tell him, stepping closer into the darkness. "You should be," he tells me, sinking farther away from me. "I only cause death to those I touch." ******,****************************** For hundreds of years, they walked in the shadows. Among us, besides, they fought our battles and stood with us. Now they rise up taking over with a power no one understands. Evelyn was born into the world of darkness. There is no sunlight and is controlled by vampires.

The Shadow #1: The Shadow Has Claws ✓
REWRITING! ' Why Do You Shun Me When You Have Fallen? Why Do You Shun Me When You Have Fallen? ' _______________________________________________________________________________ An ominous presence stirred as the Sun's final rays slipped below the horizon, casting the land into darkness. Shrouded in mystery and danger, a new power emerged with the onset of twilight. A cascade of purple flames erupted, their fiery tongues reaching out hungrily to consume anything in their path. The air crackled with malice, and an aura of trepidation settled upon all who beheld this spectacle. None were spared from its wrath, for the purple flames spared no one. Amidst this chaos, a shadowy figure materialized, her countenance contorted into a sinister smirk. With teeth bared like a predator, the enigmatic being reveled in her newfound dominance. Her name was whispered in fear and awe-The Shadow. She possessed an arsenal of lethal weapons, her claws gleaming ominously in the dim light. Fear was foreign to her, for she embraced the darkness that enveloped her. Beware, for the arrival of the Night loomed ominously, signaling the demise of the radiant Sun. The world was thrust into an eternal night, where the moon's pale glow held sway. It was a time of survival, a battle for existence against the encroaching darkness. Those who dared to face the challenge were urged to be resilient and determined. The Sunre, a chosen few who dared to resist the Night's dominion, were called upon to stand firm against the relentless onslaught. But it was an arduous task, one that demanded unwavering fortitude. ____________________________________________________________________________Complete
Fear
All I've ever known is fear, and a strange dream...a reoccurring nightmare, where someone is hunting me, chasing me, never gaining or receding, in a strange place where everything is bathed in an orange hue.

I could lose what little independence I have...it's all I own, all I am. Until one day, the dream finds me... I wake from the latest nightmare, and find a note warning of danger, and that 'they' are coming. When I wake and hear someone speaking - that I can't see, but can feel...who tells me that I am not who I think I am....I have nowhere to run... Should I listen? Wait? Or submit to the Mind Doctor again? What would you do? Comments invited. This is my first Wattpad published story. Is it good? Is it bad? Could I do better? Please comment and vote if you liked it.

Are You Awake Yet?
In my nightmares I am trapped on a mental ward. I can't move my hands without feeling the restriction of the straps. My head is as clear, no trace of the "madness." I strain against the black polyester with every ounce of strength and still I can't budge. My back hurts right to the base of my spine. Saliva is pooling in the back of my mouth. The staff have gone. I am alone. My heart pounds, ready to explode; my eyes scan left and right for signs of someone coming to help. No-one. Worn green curtains hang limp on flaking chrome rings and though the gap passers by pay me no attention at all.Complete

Amber's Apocalypse - A Travelogue Companion to This Is The Fall
April 22 I've been walking for days, they're still tracking me though. i sleep high in the trees, I double back, walk in the river, cover my tracks, start false trails...it's all slowing me down but it's really the only chance I have. I'm on foot. I'm alone. The day the grid went down I was in the mountains and I stayed put for over a month, unable to contact anyone. The electricity is out, the phones don't work, no running water, no cars, no radio...nothing. It's dangerous to go into towns now, survivors are scared, starving and dying by the thousands, but their bodies seem to just disappear. Sometimes I hear screams in the night that sound like they come straight from the depths of Hell, and the scent of sulphur and rot rides on the breeze when the heaviest clouds block out the sun. I think it's the thing that got Dan...the thing that's almost gotten me. Whatever it is, it's completely unnatural and I just know I have to stay ahead of it or I'll be just as dead as Dan is.Complete
