"It all started when I turned twelve. Up until then, I was near enough a normal kid. Despite my unusual name, Eli, I fit in pretty well in normal life in London..."
Until they came.
Without warning, I'm taken from my home and my family on my birthday, to a place that's 'safe' for kids like me. Kids with special abilities. I am one of the six in the ever changing group of kids that posses the powers over the elements... and I'm destined to die when I reach eighteen. With a traitor in our midst, life at the secluded castle that's our home becomes even harder. Can me and some of my newly found friends find a cure for our affliction, and the traitor, or will it be too late for one of us?
When the life you know ends in six years, you begin to appreciate every second.

The Unordinary

They learnt from a young age no one that means NO ONE can know about their powers even their parents and other siblings. It brings out the true friends and those who just want to use you. In the end, what do you do when your closest friend betrays you? This is the story as they try to keep their biggest darkest secret of what they are capable of and as they discover they're not the only ones like them... I am not very good at trigger warnings before individual chapters but there is mention of blood, cold abuse and parents divorcing. (But read at your own risk in case I mention something else. I am working on rewriting this story and when I do there will be the trigger warnings in the correct places.) (small teaser.) No one sees me. I am a ghost. I brush against the wooden fence. No one will believe it was me who disappeared into a fence and appeared on the other side of school. I stare at my brother. He made eye contact with me, confirming my suspicions. We both saw it. Whoever that was is like us. "Did you just see that?" I ask "You're that person my brother and I saw," He says. Oh no... Why then? "Wait! You're-" Completed just editing.

zombie apocalypse | the fallen (book One) [REWRITING]
Firstly, A trigger warning for mental health/ self inflicted wounds when reading. you're only 18 years old. your name is zoe. you always had a love for the apocalypse but didn't think it would truly happen. and you slowly learn that nobody is who they say they are. Nobody is to be trusted. Things are gonna fall apart, and nobody can save us now. This book is being rewritten again and hopefully is better than the first and second time it was published. It's kind of cringe most of the way. Wrote it when i was like 13-14 years old or something and tried rewriting when I was about 16. Didn't work. Trying to rewrite it again at 20 but i don't think the first two books are saveable. Book three so far however is going well(i believe anyway). The second book has also been rewritten and will be rewritten again. now I'm working on finishing book three. All characters are mine but ellis is not I will be changing a lot of character names again in this rewriting process in all books, ellis being the biggest.Complete

"Let's go for a party." They said. "It'll be fun." They said. Well my best friends were so wrong. So very very wrong... My world literally turned upside down after that one night.

And there's this evil demon lady called Lilith who my mom and dad locked up in the depths of hell that is hell bent on killing me for some reason (pun intended) and I have seven days to find a way to stop her.

Up until then, I was a near enough normal kid..."Complete
Nayantara
I'm Tara, and this is my story. I'm a Fire-Demon. I possess the rarest power in our demon world. Yes it's fire. I know you humans think that demons use fire for everything. Even for bathing. But it's just misinformation. Having fire power as a demon is like having green eyes as a human. And I'm also the princess of the ninth demon world. It's the smallest one. Smaller than India. And it's not a globe like your earth. It's a slightly curved triangle. A flat, black, curvy, triangle. But the throne isn't mine. Because I have an older sister, Emily. It's fine. I don't deserve to be a queen anyway. Too much work. You can't even kick dogs. You just have to act boring all the time. They use a different word, 'Mature'. I used to thrive on laziness. And crimes. Illegal meant pleasure. What could be more fun than rolling around burning grass, trees and villages? Annoying my favorite trader by misusing his potions? (His potions never work properly anyway.) Or hiding babies under their beds just to see how the mother reacts? Well, I found the answer one night. When I met him in his dream. It's teasing, hugging, throwing, threatening, abusing this weak and adorable human. His name is Nayan, my perfect toy and more.
