I dashed passed a large tree merely avoiding crashing into it and risking getting caught. If only I had brought my motorcycle along with me, I would've been out of here as quickly as I got in. I continued running taking random turns trying my best to shake the men off my trail. I made a daring turn into a narrow path only to make an abrupt stop- It was a dead end!. 'Why does this almost always happen?' I thought, now extremely annoyed. I hurriedly began surveying my environment, desperately looking for any way to escape. I had to think of something or who knows what they'd do to me if I was caught but how in the world do you escape a dead end? Suddenly, the sound of a gunshot echoed in my ears sending a rushing gust of adrenaline through my veins and soon after came the sound created by the impact of the bullet on the wall ahead of me. 'Damn it!' I hissed, I'd been caught. I raised my hands above my head and slowly turned around to face them. I gave an awkward smile at five men who were all pointing their guns at me. The man in the middle with an expression harsh enough to give anyone the creeps spoke up "Give us the flash or die!". Everything about his voice expressed nothing but a thirst for murder and blood lust. ~~~~~~ I bet you're all wondering how I ended up in something as surreal as this, so why don't I start from the beginning. My parents were your classic run-off-the-mill romcom couples. Their love literally knew no bound. It was always something special the kind you'd rarely see in real life and probably only see in story books and fantasies. They got married and a year later had me...and my twin brother Luca. My parents were rich so, Luca and I grew up comfortable, wrapped and shielded by the warmth of our parents unbreakable love. Everything seemed perfect, but who would have known that perfection could be easily broken. All it took to destroy our perfect lives was one unfortunate,bloody night. I woke up to the sounds of gunshots, panicked I got out of bed and dashed out of my room to follow the sounds and figure out what in the world was going on. I spotted Luca coming out of his room too, no doubt it was the noise that woke him up too. I ran down the stairs of our villa and entered the living room which seemed to be the source of the noise. I stopped dead in my tracks at the most horrifying sight. That was when my world shattered. My dad laid wounded on the floor and my mom had just been shot right in front of my eyes. I collapsed on the floor and screamed. The masked assassins looked up sparing me a few quick glances before escaping through the now shattered windows. Everything else that happened was a blur. Before I knew it we were at the hospital and a few months later, our lives were back to what seemed like our new normal. Luca and I went back to school, all our damaged properties along with all our security guards had been replaced and dad went back to work. We were all devastated when we lost mom and we all tried to move on and look towards the future, well all of us... except dad. He was crushed and he threw himself deep into work. He barely ever slept, always stayed in his room and quickly lost interest in raising us-we practically didn't exist to him anymore. So Luca, being older twin raised the both of us giving me all the parental attention I needed for 4years . Luca and I graduated high school and got an amazing job offer from our uncle-Mark. All we had to do was pass a test and the job was ours but I can't tell you what the test was,that part's confidential and if I told you... I'd have to eliminate you. In Summary, Luca and I passed the test and we're now undercover SPIES! It's the real deal. ***** This story is about the adventures of Andrea and her three best friends but it focuses more on Andrea's side of the story.

The bloodline, a legacy shrouded in mystery, has been unearthed by humanity. These beings, human in every way, are nonetheless branded as monsters by the world around them. Amidst this turmoil, a young girl, blissfully unaware of her extraordinary heritage, finds herself enveloped in danger when the FBI sets their sights on her and her family. As she grapples with the stark reality of her existence, she embarks on a treacherous journey filled with peril and self-discovery. In a society that ostracizes her kind, she must learn to navigate the shadows in search of the truth about her origins. Along her path, she encounters a diverse cast of allies and adversaries—some who wish to help her, and others who aim to dismantle her efforts. As she delves deeper into this hidden world, she uncovers the existence of other mysterious species that lurk in the dark, concealed from the prying eyes of humans. With her newfound knowledge, she confronts an immense challenge: can she rise to become a beacon of hope for both her kind and humanity? Will she succeed in fostering coexistence between these worlds, or will she find her sisters and brothers seeking their own isolated sanctuary away from the watchful gaze of mankind? The fate of both species hangs in the balance, resting in her hands.

The unexpected marriage of a lecturer and student.How they leads their life and fall for each other.

What happens when you die? It's a question almost everyone has asked themselves at least once in their life. Do we have souls? If so, where do they go once our bodies are too tired to go on? Does being a good person really make a difference in what happens to your soul? Turns out, it really does. After sacrificing himself for a random stranger that vaguely reminds him of his sister, Zero finds out that not only are Reapers responsible for human souls once they're ready to move on, but he has officially met the requirements to become one. Immortality and a stronger than steel body sound nice, but all things come at a price. And this cost, is by no means cheap.

It all starts in the era of war and destruction. Where every race is fighting for one purpose... To Be chosen... The battle of Devils, Angels, Humans, Demons, Elves, Dragons, Mermaid, Vampires...No, "Heh, It's only a Game board prepared by Gods. We are only chess pieces." "Go do a reality check, There are no heroes, Those who claim to be heroes are making the already rotten battle worst." But amidst the losing battle of humanity, in the dirty rotten mud field of war arose a soul, so pure yet so dark...That the one who saw it...could only go deep in that abyss of a soul. Burdened with the fate of the whole world, How will the story unfold? "I know it's true, but why can we not give up? Why can we not just let it go? Because I touched something that wasn't mine, it was taken from me many times, again and again. It's not a good feeling ok? So, I have decided. I shall be Alone." How will the story of Loir Goldhide, who is tired, but is destined to be the one who will reunite the thread of peace in the World, be written? * * * * Original Story. The cover is not mine, Taken from Pinterest.

At just 15 years old, Kikomori stands at the entrance of his new high school, the weight of his past anchoring him in place. Beneath his quiet exterior lies a dark history that has haunted him since he was six, when a horrific tragedy shattered his innocence. His once joyful world, centered around his loving mother, crumbled the day his father, Hector, killed her in a fit of drunken rage. The aftermath left Kikomori trapped in silence, paralyzed by his father’s threats to burn his mother’s body if he ever spoke the truth. At school, Kikomori’s teachers notice his bruises and emotional withdrawal, but his fear of his father keeps him from confessing. One concerned teacher, sensing something is deeply wrong, tries to reach out, offering comfort and a promise of help. But the moment she calls his father to the school, Kikomori is forced to face the man who has controlled his life through violence and manipulation. Hector, appearing well-dressed and respectable, exudes a chilling charm that hides his true nature. He quickly manipulates the situation, making it seem like Kikomori's claims are mere figments of an overactive imagination. The teacher, however, senses the tension and fear in Kikomori's eyes. She confronts Hector, determined to protect the boy, but Kikomori, terrified by his father’s veiled threats, breaks down and runs to him, choosing the safety of silence over the danger of speaking out. The story unfolds as a psychological thriller, exploring Kikomori's internal struggle between fear and the desire for freedom, and the sinister hold Hector maintains over his son. It delves into the trauma of domestic abuse, the manipulation of appearances, and the battle between silence and truth. As Kikomori tries to navigate his new school and escape his father’s control, he must decide whether he has the strength to confront his past, or whether Hector's shadow will forever silence him.

Centuries ago, a mysterious energy called "Mana" revolutionized society, but it led humans to face an unprecedented crisis: the "Great Fall". After centuries of intensive use of mana, flora and fauna mutated, becoming more powerful and intelligent. Confronted with this threat, humanity takes refuge in the bastions, the 21 fortresses, to survive. Humans also begin to mutate, developing greater physical and intellectual abilities, as well as special powers called "systems" and "stigmata". However, a scientist warns of an even more devastating imminent threat: insects, organized and cruel, will mutate in turn. To counter this imminent threat, humans begin to study the beasts and learn to cultivate Mana like them. Mana exercises are created to accelerate this process and copy some of the characteristics, but changing exercises is difficult and risky. As the world struggles for survival, Rin, a semi-awakened with the power to perceive everything around him, finds himself at the heart of this turmoil, determined to find his place in a world in chaos and to protect those he loves from the surrounding dangers. ***************************************** Participate in WSA 2024

A story depicting of a certain someone, not necessarily a fact but an altered memory. Just the tales of A Shot Life.

The vast scale of our universe has lead us to believe that we must be alone. However, this isn't the case. Fane, a member of a highly advanced spacefaring civilization, is suddenly summoned to a medieval world, reminiscent of Old Earth's Dark Ages. On the surface, kingdoms wage endless wars, while beneath, a mysterious dungeon sprawls, its labyrinthine corridors constantly shifting like the gears of a clock. Yet, this world is not the only one drawn into the chaos. Two others have also been pulled into the fray, bringing with them powerful crystalline mages and ancient gods long thought forgotten. Now, Fane must fight to survive alongside native warriors and foreign entities alike, all while unraveling the cryptic mysteries of this strange and dangerous realm. Survival is only the beginning - deciphering the truth could change everything. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Hello! Thanks for checking out my work! I'm not the greatest author, but I plan to consistently update this project, even if I have to write significantly slower than what you typically find on this platform. (My apologies!) Below, you will find some key notes that might be nice to see before becoming invested. PACE: 1 ch/week For now, I plan to write roughly 1 chapter / week. However, this might change in the future as I acclimate to writing more frequently. (Or if this story randomly becomes very successful.) MONEY: At least first 50 ch FREE I know I just mentioned this story becoming "successful", which typically entails paying the author and bla bla bla. BUT! I like the idea of this just being my story with no hooks or lines for a while. I plan to make the greater first chunk of the story free. TRENDS: ~~Overpowered~~ Honestly, I hate the concept of things being "overpowered". It reminds me of the first time I hacked my favorite childhood videogame. (It sucked the fun out of it completely.) That being said, I want this story to involve genuine challenges that take effort or risk to overcome. GENRE: Action, Mystery I would like this story to focus primarily around Action and Mystery. There might be some mild things tossed into the fray like comedy and romance, but don't expect anything too raunchy. DISCORD: -not yet implemented- I may eventually start a discord for this story. It could make a good library for supporting lore or artwork, as well as a place for people to discuss their theories or leave feedback. For now, this discord doesn't yet exist, but I will update you here when/if that changes. OTHER STORIES: Paused A few of you may have known me from my previous stories. I know, you may be pretty bummed that I haven't updated either in a really long time. There were some pretty hefty flaws in those stories that I kind of beat myself up over. (I actually formed this story while trying to restructure the surface world for 'Reincarnated as a Haunted Machine'.) For now, this will be my only work, as the world I live in has become rather complicated in recent years. Perhaps at some point, I will return to my other works, but for the foreseeable future, this story will be my one true love.

I've lived for 40 years, I spent 17 years working as a sales associate in a grocery mart, even though I graduated from Seoul National University. When will my life actually start *Ding *Ding *Ding?

After a harrowing past as a vagabond and a reluctant soldier in a war he never chose, a teen returns to normalcy by attending high school. His reluctance towards such endeavours were not misplaced, however, as he soon discovers that the world of privileged and elite students is a different challenge than a simple battlefield. Amidst the hostility and the intrigue, can he find his place and reclaim his lost youth?

it is a realistic story that has real crime, real laws, and real romance. The first two chapters are just mere introductions on what could happen next, so keep reading to get to the exciting part. All characters are over 18. This story is also on Wattpad and it has the same exact name.

This is a story about memory, time, chaos, and healing. For you see, time tends to take it's toll on everyone and everything; but something can only wither so much before it's destroyed, replaced, reworked, or desecrated; things change. The world's a big place, but not big enough. Everything's always moving, changing, and aging. And as this happens, history piles up onto itself, reworking the world into countless configurations, all based upon the foundations of its unique and ever expanding past. But unlike time, configurations of reality are not technically infinite, at least to a noticeable extent. As time continues, history piles up, and the world changes, everything will eventually have happened. Time loses meaning because nothing is new; and things get boring.
