Blushing Mermaid Basement

The apocalypse is here, and it’s so overdone. Monsters? Check. Burning sky? Check. Random system that gives you powers but also wants your firstborn? Double check. In the middle of this mess are two guys who couldn’t be more mismatched if they tried: The Fool: A guy who’s spent his life perfecting the art of doing nothing. His resume includes “professional procrastinator”, “class clown”, “expert nap taker”, etc... Now he’s got to survive an apocalypse that didn’t even give him a heads-up. How rude. The Regressor: A guy who’s lived through the end of the world more times than he can count. Literally. Because he forgot. Now he’s just a brooding mess with a leather jacket and zero useful advice. When the fool realizes his classmate is a regressor, he’s like, “Great. I’m stuck with the guy who’s seen it all but remembers none of it. This’ll go well.” Yet, they will still group up and face trials that test their sanity more than their skills. But as the so-called End demands more blood and the regressor’s memories start to resurface, they realize the real apocalypse might be their inability to agree on where to hide. Fool: "Let’s hide in the basement!" Regressor: "Basements are death traps. We should go to the roof." Fool: "Roofs are for dramatic exits. I’m not dying for aesthetics!" Anyway, can a lazy dreamer and an amnesiac hero save the world? Probably not. But hey, at least they’ll have a good story to tell—if they survive. ________ __ Please note that this story is a work of fiction and a product of the author's imagination.

Ugh, this girl is literally driving me crazy!

In a world where realms collide and supernatural beings vie for dominance, Alice, a bold and stubborn teenager, discovers she is far more than she ever imagined. The daughter of Kael, the dark ruler of the Land of the Immortals, and a powerful mermaid queen, Alice’s existence is intertwined with ancient prophecies, dangerous secrets, and an impending war that could reshape all realms. Alice’s journey begins in a prestigious school for the supernatural, where she forms unlikely alliances with Micheal, a dragon-vampire hybrid; Aliyah, her mermaid cousin and protector; and Demian, a brooding werewolf prince with a hidden connection to her. As Alice uncovers the truth about her origins and the enemies plotting against her, she becomes a beacon of hope for the oppressed and a target for those seeking to control her destiny. When Kael unexpectedly emerges from the Gate of Bael, Alice must reconcile with her enigmatic father, who harbors regrets and truths that shake the foundations of her beliefs. Together, they uncover shocking secrets, including the manipulation of Lucifer, the betrayal of trusted allies, and the mystery surrounding Alice’s frozen mother, who holds the key to an ancient power.

The only thing 12-year-old Asher remembers from his early childhood are snapshots, hazy images - dad's laughter, mom's smile and a garden with vegetables in the yard. Picking fresh apples from trees into a wicker basket or eating homemade apple pie. But these memories are nothing but the distant past. When Ash was 7 years old, a civil war broke out - the boy was in the basement at the time, looking for old photos of his mother from the wedding as she had requested. Except that it did not happen - the family home was bombed in a bombing raid by the government - Asher then became the only survivor of his family. Asher was forcibly recruited into the rebel army - since the boy was 8 years old, he fought in war - tears, blood, sweat and death became Asher's companions - and nightmares became a regularity. His team, which includes only adults, is joined by a 12-year-old girl - Beatrice, who, like Ash, was forcibly recruited into the army of revolutionaries. Although at first, these two hate each other, over time they become best friends. Even in such terrible places as the battlefield.
