She walked over to the mirror to tie up her hair, and her heart stopped. There was no reflection. The faded outline of a person became clearer and clearer. Yet, the girl staring back at her wasn't Sammie. This girl had thick, dark hair, coiling around her neck and shoulders like black snakes. Her eyes were a poisonous green that seemed to glow, and they were outlined in black eyeliner.  "Who are you?" Sammie whispered. The girl breathed on the mirror, turning it a foggy grey. She took her finger, and traced letters onto the glass. MARA.   Sammie was in enough trouble as it was; a dying business in a small town, little money and unpaid bills; with out the moody ghost of a deceased teenager showing up and asking for her help to figure out the unsolvable mystery of her death. Sammie is thrust into a dangerous game of detective work, with nobody but a dead girl to help her. Will she solve the mystery? And what will she discover on the way?

Daemon Stay Dead by CosDeity
7 parts Ongoing Mature
On her first day of her second year, Maya starts hearing the rumors. They're impossible to ignore, whispers in the halls, sideways glances, and soft giggles when Leo walks by. His name always seems to come up in the same breath as tragedy. It's like everyone knows the details but no one will talk about them, like there's a dark cloud hanging over him. Some say it was an accident, others think it's something worse, but either way, Leo's the one you don't want to get too close to. Maya, however, isn't the type to shy away from rumors. Especially not when they start eating at her curiosity. There's something about Leo that pulls her in, like a puzzle she can't solve. She's been struggling with a hole in her life, the loss of someone she cared about, someone who's been gone for far too long. Desperate for answers and willing to do anything, Maya ends up making a deal. It's one of those things you hear about in hushed tones, something that sounds almost too unreal to be true, but she doesn't care. All she wants is for them to come back, and the cost? Well, she figures she'll deal with that later. But just as she's about to seal the deal, Leo shows up, like some kind of reluctant hero. He tries to save her, to break the bargain before it's too late, but his intervention backfires. The deal takes its toll on her in a way she never expected, half of her soul gets torn away, scattered across town. To make things worse, part of the demon that tricked her takes root inside her, filling the void and granting her powers. But it's not all gifts. With those powers comes the threat of losing who she is, of being consumed by the very thing she tried to control. Maya is left with a terrifying choice: use the powers to reclaim her soul or risk losing herself completely.

(READ ALL BEFORE STARTING BOOK) This is unedited. After the death of a 24 year old girl she's reborn, but the world around her seems different. Not only does she have an entirely different family, she sees... dead people. (And maybe more!) Her family claimed she was crazy and a liar for saying she could see ghosts. It was a disgrace to their family and the family name. So, she was ordered to keep quiet about it. She couldn't say a word about her occurrences to anyone. Maybe she is crazy, but the events that unfold when she meets a group of "demons" help explain why she is who she is. All she had to do was find an abandoned crypt in the middle of the woods.
