 I felt the tears welling in my eyes as I found myself trapped in the same dream I had every night. The same vision of my parents being murdered and my brother saving my life three times before I was running through the woods. The same as every night, I watched the sky lighten from the back of the small cave in the rocks beside a waterfall. But tonight... tonight I could tell they were getting closer. That sense of fear was stronger than I remembered it being that night and before I realized it, I was screaming at the sound of someone climbing the cliff face. "Whoa! Calm down!" a voice said, catching my shoulders. I didn't recognize the voi

 "Sanji-nii?" Akira, one of my adopted brothers said quietly, his voice full of concern. I opened my eyes and leaned forward, setting down my drink. "I'm sorry, Akira. I had wanted to introduce you to Kaoru tonight, but something came up and he's resting in his room now," I said, half regretting having pushed so hard and half curious as to what happened with the friend he mentioned. "You didn't try to force yourself on him, did you?" he asked as straightforward as ever. As serious as the question was, I couldn't help but laugh at how likely that it might have been if Kaoru hadn't been so upset. He'd always been so pretty and cute, just li

 The headaches are back again. It feels like my skull is being ripped in half and nothing I do helps make it ache any less. I buried my head under my pillow, hiding from the meager light that managed to get through the dark, heavy curtains and the incessant ticking of the clock in the other room. I've suffered from these headaches my entire life. There hasn't been a doctor yet who could tell me what is wrong or what causes them or why they are so severe. It was hard on my parents. When I was eight, they divorced, leaving my mother to attempt to deal with me and my headaches alone. When I was twelve, she went to work and never came home. I g

 I stared out of my bedroom window as the rain poured down, the wind throwing it randomly into the glass and both the close and distant rolls of thunder creating the depressing symphony playing in my darkened room. Part of me longed to go out there into the rain and just simply disappear into the stormy night. Part of me didn't think that it could be much worse out there at the mercy of the elements compared to in here in the relative safety of my father's house. My eyes traveled from the window, to the piece of metal that kept glinting in the flickers of lightning. Yes, the piece of metal was a razor blade that I had taken from a disposabl

 When I woke the next morning, I couldn't move at all. My entire body ached so badly that just reaching up to shut off my alarm clock forced a groan of pain from me. I tried to force myself to get out of bed as I knew that if I didn't show up for school today Craig would all but kill me. I hurt bad enough now. I didn't want him to add more punishment on top of how much he had already done. I groaned as my movements caused me to tumble out of bed, landing on my hip which only caused the horrible ache in my ass to send pain shooting up my spine. "Kip!" Tylere exclaimed from the doorway of my room. Mentally I groaned as I had forgotten that he

 I closed my eyes and let my mind float away with the thumping sound of the club's music as my body moved to it's intoxicating beat. I had my arm high over my head, draping off the shoulder of whatever hot guy just happened to be my current dance partner. Right now, I didn't care who I danced with, as long as I could keep moving in the blissful land of forgetfulness the music created. All I wanted to do was dance and forget I had ever loved such a prick. Hours passed by in the blink of an eye and I moved from dance partner to dance partner, waiting for one who could satisfy my need. I loved to dance, but I'd rather dance alone than with a r

 "We're sending you all south so you'll be going by train," the driver said as the vans began to pull into a parking lot. "Unfortunately, we can't tell you where you're going yet to protect you all." "We understand," Dmitri said as we all turned our eyes towards the bullet train that was waiting in the station for us. Perhaps going south would give us more time between attacks by the hunters. I knew Paige was going to need more time to gather her strength since she was still unconscious after the last ordeal at St. Justin's. "Do you think the next school will be lycan heavy?" Harmony asked as we started to unload the vans. "I mean, Capita

 "Ugh! I said, no!" I shouted, trying to free myself from the man's grip on the front of my shirt. Yesterday, I wouldn't be against this. Yesterday, I needed the money I would have gotten from letting this bastard touch me and I would have let him. But that was yesterday. Today, I still had plenty of cash from yesterday and I didn't want to sell my body to get more. Today, I just wanted to be left alone. "I think the boy said no," a deep voice said. I saw the black leather clad hand that came to rest on my attacker's shoulder, followed it up the black leather clad arm to the scowling serious face. My jaw dropped at the sight. He was the typ

You left me standing here, with only a simple word of goodbye You gave me no explanation, just a desire to go and try I tried to understand, how everything came to this I tried to forget you. You didn't want to be missed. I loved you I hated you We laughed, I cried I wanted you But you wanted to fly I was never good enough, always falling just short I wanted to be the man you always wanted to court I had to leave you behind, to make a life for you I nearly died when I left, unable to say it's was all for you I loved you I hated you We laughed, you cried I wanted you But I needed to fly I tried not to miss you, I tried to for

 "Junip!" yelled a voice I was so not wanting to hear. My eyes widened and I looked up to see my ex standing at the end of the hall, seething with not so silent fury. I quickly turned back to my classmate, who was looking like he simply wanted to hide now that the captain of the wrestling team was about ready to kill the both of us. "Sorry, Sean!" I shrieked and made a mad dash in the opposite direction of the jock I had dumped earlier today. "Junip, you owe me!" Sean called and without looking back I knew he was shaking his head at me with his usual smirk. My ex was cursing and trying to make his way through the throng of students as qui

Nathan Jamison 『 The Stargazing Hero 』 Human 『 At First Glance』 Nathan stands at an easy five foot ten at sixteen, leaving the impression that once he's fully grown he will be well over six foot like his brothers. Born from black and Latino parents, he has  cinnamon coloured skin and cappuccino brown eyes. Like his older brothers, he keeps his hair in dreadlocks, though his only reaches just passed his shoulders for now. He prefers his jeans baggy, but not so loose that a belt can't keep them on his hips. He's almost always found wearing a tank top underneath an open button down shirt. 『 Intelligent, A

 Journals are retarded. At least that's what I think, but my therapist says that I should try writing in one. Just let my thoughts and feelings flow out through my fingers. She seems to think that this will help me get over the things that have happened, since I won't talk to her about any of it. But it's not like I won't talk to her about it. It's more like, I don't understand why I need to talk about it. She already knows everything that has ever happened to me, it's all in my medical charts. My body being the roadmap for the abuse and pain that I suffered through all these years under my mother's care. To be perfectly honest, I don't rea

 The night after our first concert with The Kings of Lost Souls Ren found the bruising on my arm and nearly lost it when I finally told him where it had come from. The relief had only been minor that it had bridged the gap between Vincent and I and the entire band was a little pissed at me for hiding it. Bailey had managed to calm them all down when they called him, but Ren just wouldn't let me go afterwards. After that though, the security around us was increased again. On a plus side, after the concert the popularity of the song Vincent and I had done was so high that we were all but forced to record it. The Kings allowed it to be added a

 "Hey, Bailey! Let's spin!" I blinked a bit as the chlorinated water stung my eyes as Alyssa suddenly popped up in front of me. I laughed a bit, thinking nothing of it and nodded as she grabbed one of my arms and then reached under the water to grip my ankle tightly. I guess it helped that I was still so much smaller than everyong else, being a mere five foot and ninety pounds soaking wet. Around and around in circles Alyssa spun, and while she seemed to be getting dizzy, I was fine. But I could feel panic beginning to well up in my chest as I noticed that she was gradually getting closer and closer to the side wall in her dizzy state. A sc

 I glanced up from my textbook to the teacher as a strange thought crossed my mind. It was strangely quiet in the classroom and I don't mean just because everyone was reading their textbooks like we were supposed to be doing. It was just that all the muffled noises from the classrooms above us and beside us weren't there. Granted people could simply just not be moving around, but the possibility was far too unlikely that out of sixty some students in the three classrooms above and beside mine, that no one would be moving around at all. Even the days of standardized testing weren't this quiet. Slowly, my eyes began to travel around the class

 I rubbed my eyes, trying to get the last of the extra moisture from them before I ran into anyone. Talking to Kaoru always left me in a mess of tears and it was so out of character for me to show any emotion other than anger. It'd been the better part of a year already since my twin brother's heart had ceased to beat and we'd buried him. So much had happened since then and all relationships seemed quite strained these days. Kaoru wouldn't be happy with how everyone was currently. He'd have shown one of his very few bursts of anger and called them all a bunch of idiots for withdrawing from each other just because he'd died. I'd moved out of

 I moved through the water and the waves with such ease that even I was proud of myself, but the only thoughts on my mind were swirling around the man who was apparently my aunt's neighbor. He seemed nice enough, was very polite and definitely good looking, but there was something about him that bothered me. When I'd first heard him speak to me without looking up from his book, he'd seemed like someone who kept to himself a lot. It was only after he'd looked up and looked me over did he seem to take interest in what the hell I was doing. Even still, as much as his sudden concern creeped me out and annoyed me, I'd still pretty much asked him t

 Sommer stepped out of the little cafe and turned to head towards her apartment when a sound in the alley caught her attention. Without thinking she stepped into the alleyway, bumping into Jason. He turned and looked at her and all the colour drained from his face, his eyes widening with horror. Confused, she opened her mouth to question why he was there and why he looked so horrified to see her. "Sommer, you should go," he said abruptly, trying to push her back. A howl came from behind him and he really began to panic. "Now, Sommer!" It was too late though, because over his should she saw something straight out of a horror movie. U

 I woke up slowly, the sound of knocking on a door dragging me fully into consciousness. I tried to roll to drag myself out of bed, but was stopped by a strong pair of arms wrapped around my body and the ache that radiated up my back from my ass. My groan must have woken the owner of the arms around me as they tightened and the hands began to rub my back soothingly. I blinked away the sleep to look up at the face of Alex, his face relaxed and his eyes still closed, but a satisfied smile still lingering on his lips. I stared at him for a long moment, the memories of the night before flooding quickly back into my mind. "A-a-alex..." I murmure

 When Jack had informed me that Camryn's psychologist had suggested that I stop visiting him in the hospital, I had been angry. It wasn't until he said that Camryn had agreed that I felt my world beginning to crumble around me. Camryn had never pushed me away before and I feared what it might actually mean. Lydia managed to assuage a good bit of my worry when she relayed that he was apparently having trouble coming to grips with his emotions. I could understand that. He'd always hidden how he felt and I had witnessed the results of his emotions, but he never really talked about them. It wasn't until Camryn came home four days later in a whe
