Hope finally has escaped Colonel Tavington and has now been reunited with Gabriel and Benjamin. She's traveling through South Carolina and beyond as the war rages on, fighting with Benjamin's men in a war that has grown bloodier, dirtier, and larger than before. As Hope settles in with the men, however, she can't dodge the discrimination against her for not only being a female, but of mixed races. But she soon proves she's better than most when it comes to combat, having traded in her dresses for riding boots and trousers. Colonel Tavington has lost Hope, the first woman to have actually made him question his actions. But as the war progresses, Tavington lives up to his name 'The Butcher' as he soon becomes a master of torture to get answers of his Ghost's whereabouts, not knowing they were one in the same when it came to where Hope was. But when Hope falls back into William's arms once again, their everlasting emotions cause them to question their participation in battle. Can Hope prove worthy alongside Benjamin and fight for the country she loves with the South Carolina Militia under Benjamin's command, or will Hope and William's one mistake cost Benjamin's the war, jeopardizing their love, and cost her her life? It's all out war in Colonial America, and there is no such thing as a secret as death comes to those they love and the losses become more than unbearable. *** Make Sure To Read Part 1! ***

If there is one thing about Halloween that boils blood, it would be the controversy surrounding certain costumes. Furthermore, if it is not already publicly known, let us say; my heritage, and religion are not you sexy costumes. It is 2017, wake up.

"Gosh, no wonder obesity is a major problem here: There's a McDonalds on every block!" "They don't care about my health. They just want my money. Why else would healthcare here be so expensive compared to Canada's?" "Do these people know anything other than violence, eating, and just lazing around?" "I wanna move to Canada. Wanna come with me?" Alfred has heard it all. And though he smiles through it, deep down... he's hurt. . Sometimes, we Americans take our liberties and rights for granted and talk lowly of the nation we live in; forgetting just how much soldiers throughout American history since the American Revolutionary War have sacrificed in the name of justice and freedom. For the U.S.A to be truly the 'Land of the free, and home of the brave.'. xXx **DISCLAIMER* Sadly, no. I am NOT Lin-Manuel Miranda, so whatever "Hamilton" lyrics you may read obviously doesn't belong to me, but to Mr. Miranda. ***DISCLAIMER** Hetalia belongs to Hidekaz Himaruya.

Warning: Occasionally, I will have mature content/themes. All chapters including anything for mature audiences (13+) will have the "⚠" emoji next to the chapter title.

Everyone's creating fan clubs these days, so I decided to create one. This is mostly about the American Revolution surrounded by Hamilton. But I'll most likely go and do events not relating to Hamilton as well. Another beautiful world to go to when the fandom goes crazy.

New York City, 1864. While America is torn apart by Civil War, the streets of New York City's Five Points neighborhood are overrun with violence and debauchery. Gangs and political corruption subjugate the impoverished populace. Owen McCoy, once an orphan taken in by the infamous Bowery Boys gang, now finds himself as an reluctant enforcer of the gang. He is young, reserved and keeps to himself; feeling a sense of loyalty to the gang that took him in when he was only a child. Abigail "Abbie" Davenport is a beautiful young debutante who is shy in her own right and spurns off the advances of the young men who wish to court her merely because her father is a powerful political figure. Owen and Abbie's lives collide when each is an unwitting participant in a political assassination plot. While forced to go on the run from gangs, bounty hunters and the political machine that yearns to silence them, their differences and distrust of each other are soon replaced by love for one another. Through a series of events that place Owen in the notorious Civil War prison, Andersonville, and Abbie in the clutches of forces that may cost her her life, can the love of the unlikely couple bring them back together?
