NOTE: This is a story I wrote in 8th grade during our Holocaust unit, when we read "The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak. In the book, a character named Max writes something for Liesel using the pages of an old book, altering the story. Out assignment was to create our own altered book with a Holocaust themed story. This was one of my favorite projects that year and I still have the actual book that I put together. I found this story recently and it was so cool to look back on it and also see how much my writing has evolved.
SECOND NOTE: The historical accuracy in this story is 99.9% likely to be not perfect. I wanted to point this out so that if somebody notices an error (whether it be big or small) they know that I am not TRYING to offend anyone. If anyone does end up getting upset, I'm terribly sorry (and that is a genuine apology).

I turned around to see Makayla right behind me. "Hi, Little Brother." She said viciously ~~~ "You didn't do that stuff to Makayla, did you?" He quietly asked. "No, I didn't." I shook my head and paused. "She did it to herself." He was quiet for a moment. "Why would she blame you for all that stuff?" I lightly shrugged. "They'll believe her, though." I said quietly "Everyone always believes her and now that you're here it's going to get a lot worse." ~~~ Twins that were given up for adoption together. For a reason they do not know yet.

Suicidal Sky
This story is actually from a song which is about one girl trying to convince herself that people have it worse than her and that she didn't need to commit suicide. All the girls represented one of her problems. There was one girl with braids, one that was short, one with a yellow cardigan and then the others that she didn't explain. But at the end, it explained her as short with braids and a yellow cardigan. So, the girl had her boyfriend break up with her, people steal from her and bully her and her family was abusing her at home. Also, with the last girl, it said what did I just say before she said don't do it please. Proving that she did the things that the girl with the yellow cardigan said. Sadly, in the song, she gave up on trying to convince herself and she committed suicide. Luckily this time, this girl has seven guardians, a big brother figure, a better father-figure who is their teacher to be the new Mafia Don to the Vongola. How will they handle trying to keep her from killing herself? Or will a new boyfriend keep that from happening ever again? Will she stop? Or will her boyfriend take things into his own hands really?Complete

Helios's retelling
I'm not gonna change the cover yet lol Warning, this may contain vivid and graphic descriptions of blood, injuries, gore, torture, kidnapping, CA, child trafficking, racist characters, death, potential mentions of SA/CSA, and generally may be an extremely triggering thing to read, if you do choose to read my dumb stories. This is a heavier read, and if you need to stop or take a break after anything written, go ahead, and take care of your mental health :3 ~ Helios was a talented young man, strong, agile, and always helped around the village. Everything from herding José's sheep, or helping him with the harvest, to helping build new housing, or hunting with his dad. He's always been beloved around the village. It was a poor community, but everyone knew everyone, and they were happy. But one morning, while Helios was about to go explore the savannah with his friend, a truck pulled up to the village, a semi painted all black, and one man stepped out from the passenger side door... and in only a few hours, Helios's life changed from a helpful village boy, to a kidnapped child. This is his story, told by his own tongue.

But when she unwittingly promises to hide two Jews in a home she does not have, Celina must journey across Europe with these strangers in search of lady who might be able to rescue them. They are filthy, they are broken, and Celina cannot seem to control the hatred burning inside her. Together they travel town to town, witnessing each cities own branch of horrors, even hiding in basements of strangers. In ways painfully unimaginable to Celina, these two Jews affect her life in the deepest of ways. As they dodge bullets, stumble upon an injured enemy pilot, and attempt to escape the hands of the Germans naming them fugitives, Celina must learn to face what she has been too terrified of her entire life. ***Edited by the lovely @jgfairytalesComplete

The Footballer's Sister (Mario Götze)
*Just a disclaimer, I wrote this when I was very young and had absolutely no writing skills at all so read at your own discretion. My newer works are more developed and have maturer writing. Lia Reus is the little sister to the famous footballer Marco Reus. But she isn't famous for her brother's success in football. She is a part of the German National Ballet. Her whole life revolves around ballet and supporting her brother in his football games. Mario Götze is the German player that guaranteed Germany's World Cup win. His skills on the pitch are what made him who he is today. His life his football. He has everything he ever wanted, to play football, he has a beautiful girlfriend and he played for his country. Lia and Mario used to be best friend. When Mario played with Dortmund, Lia was just as close to Mario as Marco was. It wasn't as public but they were best friend. Until Mario moved to Bayern. Lia couldn't believe him and vowed to hate him for what he did. Even if her brother did forgive him, Lia thought it was unforgivable for him to leave her brother like that after years of friendship, to one of their rivals. But there is no such thing of hating someone after having been friends with them for so long. And Lia is going to have to accept that.Complete
