Hunted by evil for their ability to make anything they draw become a physical reality, once normal high schooler Scarlett Weaver and her witty (annoyingly good looking) captor Ian Stratton are forced into running.
However, they soon start to uncover the pieces to a deep, twisted secret hidden by a nightmarish creature of pure darkness. The world is at stake as Scarlett and Ian, the last of the Futuro's, race against time.
Many sacrifices must be taken; while hearts and trust may be broken.
~
"All Futuro have a special, powerful ability which allows them to recreate anything they can think of by drawing it. If you can think of it, you can make it a reality."
I open my mouth to tell this idiot that he sounds completely insane but Ian's icy blue eyes seem to challenge me, daring me to interrupt him. I stop myself, frozen to my seat as he continues.
"The only drawback- no pun intended- is that if Futuro don't do any drawing over a long period of time, they will eventually die. Anyway, the point at this time is that there are nasty people coming for you to use you for your powers. I've tried to keep them diverted from you for the past week, but they found your location sooner then I thought.."

After finding an underground fighting arena she gets embedded into a new and exciting world. Danger follows her like a shadow, adventure in every turn, and curiosity sits on her shoulder like the devil. Soon after her first fight things go downhill in her life, how will she move forward? First book out of ??? ( I'm planning at least 3-4) This is the 4th time I have put this story up on Wattpad, but I am going to follow through and put the whole entire story up. With a first installment of 20 chapters, then 5 chapters a week until we get through it. I need beta readers and editors desperately. While this is up on Wattpad I will be working on major revisions and edits. I would like comments on my characters, plots, settings, scenes, grammar, spelling, ect. I expect and want people to rip this apart by the seams and tell me the good, the bad, and the nasty. I will not delete or block a bad review or critique unless it is outright hate and judgmental that just does not need to be around. I really hope you like this as it took me 17 months to write it to completion, and I know it will take many more before it is ready to publish. It originally started as a NaNoWriMo novel, (It may seem like I cheated but I did write 50k in a month). It is currently at around 113,000 words. I hope you like it! Started October 22,2013 Finished March 14,2015 Also if you find anything that looks like an authors note to myself, please alert me and I will edit it out.Complete

Toys are to play
'I kept staring that photograph for a minute, maybe 10 seconds. He took something out of his jeans pocket. "I forgot to give this to you yesterday." He was holding a little ice cream cone made of plastic, small and defenseless. I stopped breathing and grabbed it carefully from his muscular hand. At once, the ice cream felt heavier than it was supposed to be, growing bigger and bigger each second until we both could admire a normal-sized cone spilling vanilla flavor. Oliver smirked, and slowly approached his beautiful face from mine; his lips touched my ear. A shock came spreading electricity and I had to hold myself from fainting. "See, Angel..? In your hands, toys are more than toys." He whispered. I melted and died 174 times that moment. And without other words, my piece of planet turned and disappeared through a big door made of sadness and glass. Oliver Snowfields was gone.' ••• Reviews!! 💬"Toys are to Play is amazing, it is descriptive and it gives you a huge wave of emotions when you read it.

Roman, I Love You
~Completed~ "Why are you being so shy?" He whispered. "I've seen, kissed, tasted every inch of your body. There is nothing to hide." I averted my eyes feeling heat in my cheeks and hoping that he could not feel it under his fingers. He made a frustrated noise then ducked down and pressed a kiss to the base of my jaw. The fingers previously on my cheek were now tilting my head back. "Scarlett Summer," he said into my ear, "sometimes you are the most infuriating person I have ever met." "I'm sorry." I whispered. "God, why are you apologizing? It is me who should be sorry for all of the unspeakable thoughts in my mind pertaining to you. You know I was not kidding when I said I was a dominating person. I know you've experienced it first-hand. I'm too rough with you I know that. You're just so, so breakable." He whispered the last part in my ear with so much behind it. "Sometimes I think I want to break you. Just shatter you into tiny pieces." His voice was shaky as he made his confession. "Do it then." I challenged with guile, devoid of self-preservation. ********************************************************************************* Scarlett has got some issues to say the least. She lives her life in her past and she is always waiting to die. There are a few things she enjoys, like her family, but even they are a compilation of bad memories and sore spots of her past.

Kidnapped
All of a sudden I saw another shadow flit across the street. I caught my breath but decided it was nothing, because I knew people would be out at 8 pm. I mean, it's not that late. Skylar grabbed my arm abruptly. "What was that?" My heart started pounding. "What?" Oreo started barking furiously. I looked around the street wildly. I couldn't see anything. Or anyone. "Aubrey," Skylar said. I glanced at her, silently communicating with her, and then we raced down the street. I heard footsteps behind us and ran even faster. We must be getting pretty close to the apartment complex by now. Suddenly someone grabbed my arm and yanked me back. I managed to scream before they covered my mouth with their hand. "Aubrey?" I heard Skylar cry in alarm. "Aubrey?!" I tried to get away from the person but he held me tighter, dragging me back down the street and towards an ominous-looking black car. I was being kidnapped. P. S. This book is totally clean because I try to keep my stories appropriate enough for everyone to read them :)Complete
Snow
After an apocalyptic event that thrusts the world into a new ice age, Calestia - a 17-year-old girl with a strong will - must learn to survive on a land infested with gangs, guns, and distrust. ***** Nobody knows what day it is anymore. Nobody knows the month, the day of the week...and the only way to tell time is by the slight change in the color of the sky from grey to black every twenty-four hours. If a day even is twenty-four hours anymore. The planet is dead. The people are dead. Snow falls down upon piles of bodies like the ash of a volcanic eruption. Except, the snow doesn't stop. It never does. It continues to fall and fall until you wonder if it is even possible for another flake to come down and land silently in your hair. But it does. They do. There are few survivors of what the remaining have started to call the end of the world. The Apocalypse. Few who are still brave or scared of death enough to face the torture that is living. I am one of those survivors. Book One of the Snow Series Highest ranking: #3 in Sci-Fi Watty's ShortlistedComplete
