Elmo Bedtime

A soul-stirring story of a forbidden and abiding friendship. Once upon a time, there was a girl named Anezka Orien who had been taken far away from home shortly after her birth. Her home held magic and power, wrapped in illusions. Twelve years later, she returned to Gaelen, A kingdom she had only heard about in the bedtime stories told by her foster caregiver. People called her cold-hearted, saying she was hollow and unfeeling. They warned me to stay away from her. Despite this, there was an undeniable pull toward the Queen of the Kingdom Corbin that I could not resist—a wistful ache as if our souls had met before. Once upon a time, there lived a mysterious Queen named Azara Catori, burdened by a curse as old as time. She was one of the three Ardere, fiery souls who instilled fear in the hearts of the townspeople from other elements. The Catori name was tainted with darkness and flames. They called the uncouth an oddity–an appalling figure. They advised me to keep my distance from her. Yet, there was an unshakeable yearning for Anezka Orien that I found impossible to escape. ————————————————————— Trigger Warnings : Mention of Death, Anxiety, Depression, Self-Harm.

Kenji Takahara, a 17-year-old professional procrastinator and avid gamer, had one mission that fateful evening: finish a dungeon raid on his phone before bedtime. What he didn’t plan on was getting "critically hit" by a speeding truck. When Kenji wakes up, he finds himself in a glowing white room face-to-face with the Creator of All Things... who seems more like a forgetful office worker than an almighty deity. God: “Kenji! You’ve been selected for the ultimate adventure!” Kenji: “…Adventure? You mean, like DLC or…?” God: “No, no, no. I’m sending you to another world to save it from unspeakable evil!” Kenji: “...Do I get cheat codes?” God: “We’ll see.” With a snap of divine fingers, Kenji is yeeted into his new reality… only to materialize in the Demon Lord’s throne room. Oops. No hero welcome, no starter weapons, and definitely no tutorial. Just him, a glitchy system window, and a room full of very confused—and very angry—demons. Now Kenji must navigate a world that feels more like a broken beta test than a grand adventure. With a mix of gamer wit, dumb luck, and the occasional divine intervention (read: God's half-hearted apologies), Kenji is determined to survive, level up, and figure out what exactly he’s supposed to be saving. Step one: Not die in the first five minutes. Step two: Maybe take over the Demon Castle? Hey, a guy can dream.

UNRAVELING FATE In the bustling city of New York, destiny brings together two individuals who were fated to meet under unfathomable circumstances. He is a supernatural creature known as a Tribrid, a being from folklore and bedtime stories, cursed to live as a vampire for three thousand years until he finds the one who can break his curse. She is a descendant of the original witch who placed the curse upon him and born into a long line of witches. Their first meeting doesn't go as planned, and she is left with a bad impression of him. However, fate has a way of bringing them back together under more favorable conditions, and a deal is made for her to move in with him. But as she begins to live with the Tribrid, she realizes that there's more to him than meets the eye.

A thousand years ago, the world witnessed an unprecedented conflict that pitted humanity against the immortal undead, vampires. The war was cataclysmic, leaving both sides teetering on the brink of annihilation. Just when all hope seemed lost, a celestial being, self-proclaimed as an angel named Raziel, appeared to champion the human cause. His divine intervention forced the vampires into retreat, vanishing into the shadows, but not before they made a pact among themselves. Twelve powerful vampire lords convened, vowing to retreat and lay low for a millennium, using the time to recuperate their strength and raise a formidable army. Each lord claimed dominion over a different region, weaving a complex web of secrecy and manipulation that spanned the centuries. To protect humanity from the lurking darkness, a select group of elite vampire hunters, known as the Headsman, arose. Gifted with a drop of the angel's celestial blood, the lucky few among them transcended mere mortals, gaining superhuman abilities. Their duty was to seek out the remaining vampires and rid the world of their malevolence. As time passed, the horrors of the vampire war faded into myth and legend. The once terrifying creatures of the night became the stuff of bedtime stories, and the angel's intervention morphed into a distant fable. The Headsman's tales were now shared around campfires, woven with exaggeration and disbelief. The thousand years is nearly up. ----- The cover isn't mine, so if the owner wants me to take it down, I will do so.

once my grandfather, who always speaks the truth, told me that life is not a fantasy like the bedtime story of the little prince and that you should take it seriously. He said that if you die, you die. While I agree with the first part of his advice that life is more than a fantasy, I don’t agree with the second part. from my veiw or better to say according to my experience, death is not an end but rather a beginning full of buzzing body, headaches, sword wounds, sadness, and happiness. Sometimes you have to draw a big wrong line on all the physical laws you learned in school. For me, life and death are like sitting on a merry-go-round of fantasy. Every day is a new adventure waiting to be discovered. And even though there are times when things get tough and it feels like the world is against you, there’s always hope. Hope that tomorrow will be better than today. Hope that one day we’ll find our happily ever after. But what if our happily ever after wasn’t what we thought it was? What if it was something more? Something beyond our wildest dreams? What if our lives were just one chapter in a much larger story? A story that spanned time and space and everything in between?     ●Ava’s journey began with a dream, To be the greatest photographer it would seem. But life is not always what it seems, And Ava faced challenges beyond her wildest dreams. Strange problems came her way, Rare problems that tested her every day. But Ava was not one to give up easily, She worked hard every day to make her dreams a reality. Through the ups and downs of life, Ava learned that success was not just about strife. It took hard work and dedication too, And a willingness to see things through.   ●English, as my third language, caused me a lot of problems to write this story; please ignore the grammatical mistakes.

What will she have to do to escape this weird situation? _____ “You really want to take me for Empress?” She tried to pry his hands off her back, but her strength was no match for the young emperor. In response, he only tightened his embrace, dipping his head and burying his face into her shoulders almost possessively. “You know what they will all say. You know what they are already saying —“ He sealed her lips with a fiery kiss. Pulling away, he looked her straight in the eye. “Let’s see if they could talk without a tongue.” He smiled. “Or without a life.” For the first time in years, she dared to look at him carefully. He no longer was the child clinging onto her lap during a storm nor the little boy begging for a bedtime story. Now, he towered above her, his soft features from before sharpened by time. Sensing how close he remained to her, uncontrollably, her heart skipped a beat. “Be my Empress.” _____ NO PEDOPHILIA (this is a slow burn and romance only appears later in the story)!!!!!

I was running away from them. My baby was crying in my arms as I tried to shush him. The biting cold was harsh my already thin frame. My baby’s lips started turning white. I glanced at how my baby boy stopped crying. I continued running until the town was far behind us and all I could see in front of us were just a field of thick snow. My baby’s lips turned blue. “Oh Lord, please don’t let anything happen to him,” I prayed to God and caught sight of an old church up the hill to the left of the snow-covered path. “Hang on there, baby, we are almost there,” I whispered to him. The falling snow was heavier as the minutes ticked by. Soon we were caught in a blizzard. With much difficulty we managed to reach the old church. My heart sank as I saw that it was a dilapidated and abandoned church. It only meant one thing, no warm fire to save my baby. I went inside anyway as that was the only shelter available for miles on end. There was no fire wood by the fire place. No blankets, no rugs or anything that I could use to warm us up. All my baby had was me. I cuddled him closer. I was losing my baby. “No, God! Lord if you can hear my prayer I am at your House right now please let my baby live! You can take my live, please let my baby live!!! Please Lord I beg you,” I kept repeating my prayer believing if I prayer hard enough God will really grant my wish and let me trade my life for my baby’s life. I did not know how long I prayed. When I finally checked on my son he was cold and dead. God did not help us. My prayers went unanswered. I wished the Earth would just open up and swallow me up as I lost the will to live on. I had lost my son, what else was there for me to live for? My last thoughts before I lost consciousness was, “God failed me.” ******************************** This incarnation: Theeya is the direct descendant of one of the original Forty Thieves.
