adoption brother city death korean leafless mayor night poor scar sister steal thief tree vagrant

“A Savior will come with a tree that bears no leaves . . .”

My father used to say that to me. I never understood what he meant. Till this day, I still don’t. 

Is this why he branded me with such a mark? Scarred me for life for a purpose that I am unaware of?

He’s gone now and it seems that I will never get to find out what he meant. 

Here I kneel in front of the mayor and the boy who tried helping me. My deeds were meant to keep my brother and me alive. 

I wanted to keep Jaycee safe. I needed him more than he probably needed me. 

I wish I could do things differently, but I cannot. 

This may be the end for me. 

I’m sorry Jaycee, but it looks like your sister won’t be coming home tonight.All Rights Reserved

Runaway (StudxStud) |Completed| by GxldSoul

Tonight is the night... The night I leave and start a new life. A life that won't have me fearing every minute of the day... A life that will bring me real love... A life that I can really be happy with... Dark skies bring dark clouds that will rain until I flood in my own sorrow, tears, thoughts, emotions. No one loves me. No one will care. No one will miss me. Mom slowly killing herself of a drug addiction, her abusive boyfriend, dad committing suicide when I was 5. Family...? What family? I take care of my little brother. He's the only family I have. We're gonna start a new life...

Unmask by mona_leighsah

"You trust me, don't you?" he says with a smile, that smile. It had fooled everyone, even me at some point, and for the first time I want to scream with rage and shake the earth to the core. "Give me a hug," he says pulling me out of the chair that feels like a rock underneath me. I am as stiff as a board as his hands circle me, making me feel worse than dirt. His hands reach between my thighs and I want to plunge a knife deep through his chest. The only thing stopping me is, the knife is no where near. I pull back and I don't try to hide the anger in my eyes. I want him to see it. To know that I am coming for him. Rape is chanted repeatedly in my mind, reminding of the lies I just told and the false accusations I am throwing on innocent people. He's probably figured it out anyways, surely a Priest as high as he cannot be deceived. But none of that matters anymore because...... This is just the Beginning.

Sincerely Luna Rose by writerbug44

Dear Nobody, My name is Luna Rose Wesley and I'm just like any other girl my age. I have some secrets, I'm afraid of the future, I have some complicated relationships and some amazing friends, and I'm just trying to do anything that I can to survive. But as the days pass, it seems like surviving in my world is becoming more difficult with every minute. You see, without any money, my family is forced to live in in an apartment building that's smack dab in the center of our rundown part of the city. And my mother is just a work of art. She is now addicted to drugs, and she isn't trying very hard at all to try to get us out of our inner-city situation. Living in constant fear, not only of what's outside my window at night, but also of my violent dealing brother living in the room across the hall, I have to find a way to cope without putting a bullet in my skull like so many of my fallen brethren. And my coping mechanism is to write letters to nobody- to you- and sending it to an address that doesn't exist. I need somebody to talk to without that somebody thinking that I'm looking for pity, so I've found you. Nobody. Thanks for listening. Sincerely, Luna Rose (Rated Mature for the mentioning of sex, drug use, violence, and profane language. Does not contain actual sex scenes.)

Caught In His World by raes_world22

Madelyn Norlyse. Brown hair with matching brown eyes and a soul that's absolutely lifeless. Dull. Empty. She has been abused and used so many times that she lost count. She doesn't let anyone in easily and trusts almost nobody. She was left for dead, her soul unresponsive and almost annihilated by pain and anguish. Her only joy is her one best friend... that all changes when Dylan Romano comes along. He teaches her to live and she gives him life. -----Extract----- I start to hyperventilate waiting for him to speak. I wasn't allowed to speak without them wanting me too. "Do you know how worried your mother has been?" he asked calmly. I didn't like it when he was calm. He would become angry afterwards. "I asked you a question girl" he stated now looking at me. His eyes were bloodshot. I could tell he was drunk. He forever is. "I didn't mean to upset you or her" i responded as apologetically as i could. My voice was shakey. "where did you go?" he stood up. "Where did you go that was so important you had to break the rules of this home" he was walking closer to me. -----End Of Extract----- My book is written in parts.This is my first time writing my very own story, so if there are any mistakes I'm deeply sorry. Overall, I hope you enjoy! ⚠️Trigger Warning: assault, abuse, violence, graphic details and suicide attempts ⚠️

Trade Mistakes (adopted by Brendon Urie) •{COMPLETED}• by tabooten

Hi, I guess. I'm Cassie, I'm 14 years old and I've been going orphanage to orphanage since I was 3 years old. My parents died in a car crash me being the only survivor. It was all down hill and only bands could save me from doing something terrible. Until someone in particular walks in.... 2018 EDIT- This is horribly written, i started writing it in 2016 and published it in 2017, in my 6th grade year. Its not edited bc I'm horrible with that, and I don't want to read that cringe over again. Please note that I made this when I was 11 years old and there are probs a lot of spelling and grammatical errors in this. #1 in #adoptedbybrendonurie #356 in #panicatthedisco #426 in #brendonurie Started- April 3rd, 2017 Finished- June 16th, 2017

Found You ( Y/N x Gang-Jae) by MYNAMEIVY02

"Yoon Y/N, everything you've ever known has been a hoax; it was all a big, fucking lie, a joke, since the day you were born." "Stop telling lies, Do Gang Jae; I won't listen to you." You shouted back at him, refusing to listen to what he had to say. "Y/N, LISTEN TO ME," He finishes getting down on his knees in front of me, takes my hands, and says "God, I won't pretend I'll ever be a good man... but I'll be good to you. Y/N, I would never lie to you." He says softly ... I hope I'm not the only one who is infatuated with this man since I've watched my name a lot only to see this man smile like a maniac. The story will have many twists and turns and will follow my name's plot with my own twists.

Prison Bars by RJ2224

My dad was never really there. From the moment my mom left, he became a ghost. Little did I know that he wasn't the one doing the haunting. There were men out there. Bad men who needed to teach my dad a lesson, and they used me to do it. For nine years I was tortured. For nine years I was starved and beaten. Until one day my savior showed up in a guard uniform that would forever haunt my nightmares. Only he didn't hurt me. No, he saved me. Little did I know that that saving came with a price. And when I find out his secrets, I'm not sure I will be willing to pay it.
