《Magical Popcorn》The First Day: Good Morning
Advertisement
Brown eyes shot open abruptly as Lin found herself laying in bed. The sound of singing birds filled the air of her room, complimented by the the warmth of the sun peeking through the curtains of her window.
"Geez…“ she groaned, sitting up as she recalled the nightmare from the night before. "That was too messed up."
Flinging her feet to the side she forcibly kicked herself out of bed and groggily made her way to the bathroom down the hall. From the bathroom mirror stared back the reflection of a 15-year old girl with tired hazelnut eyes, her ratty brown hair falling down just past her shoulders. She had not slept well and it definitely showed.
Fifteen minutes later she had somewhat freshened up, having showered and her teeth brushed. Now wearing her favourite purple hoodie and blue jeans, she was ready to take on whatever the day had to bring.
"Mom?” She called out, expecting a reply from the kitchen downstairs. When there was no response she looked at the clock, 7 a.m. Of course there would be no response. After all it wasn’t too long ago when her mother had started to leave early for work at five in the morning.
Soft footsteps echoed through and off the walls as the teen walked into the eerily empty kitchen. On the table sat a note next to a plate of scrambled eggs and toast, the burnt smell and dark colouring around their edges suggesting a rushed job.
“Won’t be back till later than the usual.
-Love Mom <3”
With a sigh Lin tossed the note to the side and began to rummage the cupboards for some salt and pepper to help with the eggs. Her mom being out late would mean that she would have to make her own dinner again, and a quick look through the fridge suggested that it would probably be another night of Kraft dinner.

Breakfast now done it was then time for school. On her bike she pedalled casually down the streets, her attention dangerously fixed on the skies above instead of the road ahead of her. While it may have been another droll and boring day, at least the sky was nice enough to enjoy its blue surreal tranquility.
This tranquility was however unfortunately short-lived. With only a couple blocks left until she would have reached the school yard, a shout from outside the nearby convenience store caught her ear.
At the corner of the store away from prying eyes was a group of stereotypically dressed delinquents, counting their heads she surmised there to be no more than eight of them. In the middle of their crude circle was a middle-school girl with stunning blonde hair and piercing blue eyes.
"You can’t be serious…“ Slowing her bike till it came to a stop, Lin stared with troubled eyes at the situation unfolding before her. While it may have been the smart thing to simply continue pedalling and pretend like she had seen nothing at all, Lin Ambros was not the type of girl to simply leave those in trouble alone. And while she may not have had any merit or strength to back up her gusto, she at least had the mind to try.
With a harsh creak her feet pushed readily against the plastic of her pedals, her hands wrapped firmly around the cool of her handlebars. And with a deep breath in, she was off like a bullet.
But even with her incredibly quickening speed, the crowd in front of her was already making its move, closing in quickly on the convenience store girl.
Was she going to make it in time?!
Her legs pedalled harder then they had ever pedalled before to the point that her muscles were screaming at her to stop. Wind whistled past her ears at her speed and in seconds she was soon only inches away from the back of the nearest gang member. In the next instant she would collide… into nothing.

Her brakes screeched violently as she sharply turned to a stop in front of the store. Where the gang of delinquents once stood was now nothing but empty space, the only other person left being the blonde girl that was at the centre.
"Damn…” Lin cursed, painfully clutching her break as she knew that she was too late.
She was too late to save the delinquents from their grave error.
She was too late to save them from the blonde witch.

Bastard's Wrath
The Wyvern reared its humongous head, serpent neck coiling back, onyx scales of opulence shimmering in the dimness of the cloud smothered sky. It spoke, eye's ashen, like the surface of a star, "What is it you desire, boy?" The word's rolled from it's pointed maw, tongue flicking, it's deep and ferocious voice sending the ground below rumbling. Damien looked up, hair sodden with rain, his face battered beyond recognition, his lips curled into a snarl. He had gone past the point of being frightened; he was tired of his weakness. He spoke, voice wavering, mist floating from his mouth in the coldness: "I want them dead. I want everyone who stabbed me in the back; dead." The Wyvern smiled, rows of teeth exposed, "Then sacrifice it. Sacrifice your humanity." - The story of a bastard within a crippled family,who beyond all odds becomes known as the Greatest Swordsman to live: the one that, even the Gods, would someday fear.

Sage ▸ Stiles Stilinski [Book One]
"You do realize that I'm supposed to tell you when you're throwing yourself into a dangerous situation and that doing this will probably get you killed, right?" "I don't need you to take care of me, Sage." "Says the werewolf that fell into the floor." Sage Connelly was notoriously known for the fire that killed her entire family when she was only ten years old. Granted, that name held importance for an entire year before people eventually forgot about the Connelly's and the other family involved in the fire, the Hale's. Nearly six years later, when the little girl is not so little anymore, Sage comes back with more than just a leather jacket hanging on her shoulders. She comes back with a personality distinctly different from what her old friends remembered, not only stunning Jackson Whittemore into silence but efficiently taking away Scott McCall and Stiles Stilinski's ability to talk about the dead body found in the woods the night before. Even more, the bite on Scott's body that held an importance only two people in town could help him with: Sage, to her dismay, was one of them.When Derek Hale calls upon her help, giving her the title of Scott McCall's personal babysitter, she's inevitably forced to tag along with the boy's trusty side-kick. The introverted and overly, well, intimidating qualities that the blonde had lead Stiles Stilinski into an unfathomable struggle of convincing himself that Sage Connelly was just a crush, and that Lydia Martin would forever be the one holding his heart. That lasted as long as the one-way conversation the boy had with the strawberry blonde in the middle of a hospital. His downward spiral leads him directly into the arms of a stubborn, damn blonde that was confident she didn't need a boy in her life that was still tripping over an elementary school crush.
