ASORA: From The Blood Of The Shadows by rinaXhazurina
15 parts Ongoing Mature
FORMER TITLE: Élan: A Youngblood World "Beware that you become not the very monster you ought to slay." In a world where magic holds the essence to life, there is still no telling where fate determines your place will be. When the Cardinal Empire of Nyrhaea and its time-forsaken creatures declare war on the human world, an immortal dark entity in the guise of a human, a grieving swordsman, an electric-manipulating technocrat, an unhinged fire-breathing boy, and a magic-less girl whose very existence defies the Laws of Mahika, venture to stop the prophecied, apocalyptic world war. All the while dealing with the complications of entering adulthood. With the grotesque inside him growing hungrier by the day, threatening him of the looming hour to fulfill destiny's bidding to be the key to the end of the world--where death is an impossible remedy to attain--the entity resorts to a mysterious girl who could only be his last hope to achieve freedom from the shackles of fate. An antidote given not without an undefined price. But how long can he endure to bury the roots of the calling past? And what are they willing to risk to liberate a cruel world beyond saving that hangs in the state of trust and sanity? *~* Contains Mature Contents: gore, violence, and subtle depictions of abuse, substance use, and suicide.

"His Angel" (Ghost x OC) by PhoenixTheScribe
3 parts Ongoing Mature
The fanfic takes place two years after the Modern Warfare III campaign. Follow our heroine, Sariah "Castiel" Samuels, as she struggles with feelings of self-doubt and misplacement. With all the crazy in the world, and with hope slowly dying, Castiel must rise up with her fellow task force members to defeat the world's greatest threat, Vladimir Makarov. Along the way, she befriends Gaz and Price, and slowly becomes part of the 141 family. Ghost, on the other hand, is not pleased with Castiel's arrival. No one can replace Soap, and he is almost offended that this smalltown, stubborn, southern American ex-pilot thinks she can ever try to replace him. However, the two must learn to overcome their differences and face the threat that intends to permanently destroy the world's peace. Trigger Warnings: graphic depictions of blood and violence, acts of terrorism, smoking, alcohol, self-harm and suicide, military inaccuracies, adult content, adult jokes, major character deaths, mentions of homophobia, religious themes, religious trauma, and lots of swearing. This story is thanks to my best friend who suggested we do a COD roleplay after the two of us were fed up with character chat bots being stupid. The story follows the events that took place in the roleplay with most of what you're about to read being the messages direction copied and pasted into this book (minus some format and grammatical changes, more cohesive character interaction, and additional scenes). In other words, I cannot take full credit, as the plot and the more interesting story elements were created by her :3

12 parts Ongoing

Two years after surviving the fight of her life, Medal of Honor recipient Melissa Smith comes home a decorated war hero, with commendations and medals attesting to her bravery and skill. To the higher ups, honorable discharge and full military benefits must seem like fitting repayment for the hero who repeatedly put herself in the line of fire to provide cover for her platoon, right? Wrong. Melissa doesn't know how to be a civilian, but apparently she can't be a soldier, either. A recent psych evaluation left her commanding officers no choice but to offer her an out after she froze under fire and nearly got her entire team killed. Her choice? Go home, or risk disgracing herself and the uniform. But that only left her alone with the demons in her head. Facing life outside the military is hard enough, but what will happen when a remnant of the best and worst moment of her life turns out to be more than meets the eye? Will she trust the angry yellow autobot assigned to protect her from Earth's most dangerous enemy, or will she put a bullet through his optic with all the deadly efficiency that earned her a name in Iraq? Trigger warnings: PTSD, depression, mentions of trauma, canon typical violence, adult language
