        Dead.  The last living relative of the orphan, Gabriella Adelaide, turns up dead due to mysterious, unknown causes.  No one can seem to understand what had happened to her Aunt.

The Prophecy by lspearson
27 parts Complete
Ariella's biggest desire in life has always been such a simple one. She wants to be 'normal.' Unfortunately, that one simple wish has never been within her grasp. Coming from a long line of witches is bad enough, but she's even more different than the rest of her family. The fact that no one will give her any answers to why she's so different doesn't help matters. Her entire existence is shrouded in secrets that everyone around her refuses to reveal. After a family tragedy, she moves to a new town, and she gets her first chance to at least pretend to be 'normal.' For the first time, she's allowed to leave the house and go to an actual school. She makes friends, and she develops her first crush, that's quickly followed by her second. She's finally living the normal teenage life she'd dreamed of, but it doesn't last. Everything she believed about herself and the world around her is changed in an instant. Family secrets come to light one after another, turning her entire world upside down in the process. She quickly realizes that sometimes ignorance really is bliss, and maybe she didn't really want to know the answers to the questions she'd always asked, especially when one of these truths causes people close to her to turn their backs on her without hesitation. Before she can even recover from the shock, she's thrust into a war that she hadn't even known existed. Loyalties will be tested. She'll have to choose sides between all of the people she's come to care about. Will she stand with her family, her new friends, or the two boys who both hold a piece of her heart? One thing is for sure. She'll have to let go of her dream of 'normal.'

The Inheritance

23 parts Complete

Mike Harris thought his struggle with anxiety and sleep disturbances was behind him, but when the terrifying episodes of sleep paralysis return, they bring something darker-a presence lurking in the shadows, watching, waiting. As the haunting visions grow more vivid, Mike uncovers a horrifying truth: the curse tormenting him has haunted his family for generations. Desperate for answers, Mike embarks on a journey into his family's past, discovering cryptic journals and the mysterious disappearance of a man named Abraham Dunn. What begins as a search for the origins of his nightmares soon leads him to a decaying house on the edge of town, where shadows flicker in the corners and whispers echo in the night. With the help of his friend Sara, Mike unravels the chilling connection between his bloodline and a malevolent force sealed deep beneath the earth. But the shadows grow stronger, and the line between nightmare and reality begins to blur. To save his sanity-and his life-Mike must confront the terrifying truth about "the source" and find a way to sever the curse. But some bonds are not so easily broken, and the darkness may be closer than he thinks.
