"I'm not sure! But we'll figure it out, together," Bella said.
"H-He was supposed to protect me! He's supposed to be here, helping me figure this out," Brea cried.
"Brea, He's not coming back....and I'm so sorry, you are in pain.. Especially since he thought he was protecting you. I will say this! I won't leave you, not now or ever," Bella replied.
They quickly pulled up to their house, Bella turned off the truck but sat in the same spot...turning to face her sister.
"Whatever you are..... Monster or not, I will love you," Bella smiled.
Brea wiped away her tears and looked at her sister.
"W-What if he comes back and sees that I'm some kind of monster... how will he expect me?" Brea asked.
"Brea, He loved you not because you were human, but because he saw something in you..no one else saw," Bella said.
Brea smiled...feeling a little better.
They both climbed out of the truck and walked towards the house.
"You want to have a girl's night?! We can watch whatever movie you want," Bella smiled.
"You mean that?" Brea asked,
"Of course!" Bella laughed.
"Coyote ugly!" Brea smiled.
Bella laughed... and both girls quickly rushed inside, and jumped over the couch.
Having a movie night.
********************
Brea raced through the woods, searching desperately. She turned and found Edward a few yards away, his face cold. She took a few step toward him...he bolted away, suddenly twenty yards away.
"I left and you've become this monster! I could never love you, you reek of beast," Edward growled.
"Edward? How do I reek of a beast?" Brea asked.
Edward looked turned to look and something, Brea followed his eyes and saw a huge yellow wolf emerge from behind a huge tree...it's fur was so yellow many could mistake it for gold. Brea looked closer and noticed it's eyes were a mixture of blue and gold...something you see out of a story.

"Is this the beast, you speak of?" Brea asked.
Edward nodded.
Suddenly Edward rushed towards Brea and grabbed her by the throat, growling and hissing..... but stopped pulling away, he looked into her scared eyes and frowned.
"I-I'm sorry, for everything," Edward sighed.
*******************
Brea felt her body shake and sudden tears rolled her face...she felt someone shake her, she opened her eyes and saw Bella and Charlie standing over her.
"You're alright, Brea! It was just a dream," Charlie sighed.
Charlie leaned over her and ripped off the dreamcatcher, throwing it away.
"That's not working very well," Charlie said, sitting on the edge of the bed.
"I-I haven't had a bad dream in awhile, but this wasn't much of a bad dream. It felt so real," Brea replied, looking over at Brea.
"I know what it's like, you know. When your mom left me, I had one hell of the time. Imagined doing all kinds of crazy things, just to stop the pain," Charlie mumbled.
Brea avoided eye contact with him.
"But hanging out with Jacob seemed to help get your mind off some things," Charlie smiled.
"Yeah...he's a good friend," Brea said.
"That's good! He's a great guy," Charlie replied.
Charlie stood up and walked out of the room...Bella poked her head out the door and watched Charlie walk into his room.
"Tell me what the dream was about!" Bella said.
"It was about Edward and a Wolf," Brea shrugged.
Bella gave her a confused expression.
"I think I was the wolf....but I was also standing there like you standing here, it was as clear as day," Brea sighed.

Stranger than Fiction (Draft Edition)
Rewrite -> https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/55140/stranger-than-fiction 150k words of rewritten and new content, updating 3 times a day. Faith is like ice-cream. It comes in all flavors. Greek, Norse, Sumerian, Christian— just name it and it's there. Adventures, on the other hand, are like credit cards. The first taste is free, but the price only goes up from there. Family heirlooms, now those are true evil. You get burdened with them for sentimental reasons even if they’re icky. For Lukas Aguilar, it was a pendant. A small, weird metal nib with absolutely no vampiric tendencies. All he wanted was to finish the job at hand, and get on that book he had been postponing for a while now. Instead he got served with an apocalypse for breakfast, a cave full of eldritch monsters for the company and the whims of a ruined goddess for his To-Do list. Really, a simple NO from the universe would have sufficed. Acknowledgments Editor-in-Chief: Solo Starfish Artwork: Exodus

Emmett Carter just wants one thing - to gather his family at the farm and keep them safe. Rated [M] for Mature Audiences. Contains Alcohol use, Drug use, Gore, Profanity, Smoking, Violence.Rated [D] for Drama. Contains emotional themes, interpersonal relationships, and character development. Author's note: You are reading a first draft, written mostly while drinking cheap whiskey. Expect it to read like hot garbage and I guarantee that it’ll meet your expectations. I’m a storyteller, not a writer - there’s a huge difference between the two professions. IMPORTANT! This story is told in a first-person limited, conversational style, with Emmett occasionally breaking the 4th wall and addressing the reader directly. This means that YOU and Emmett may have absolutely no idea why stuff is happening, because there will be little or no exposition or other POV's. Read the comments for spoilers, ask questions if you want to know something.This work incorporates blended aspects of Xianxia, Wuxia, Super powers, and Western Magic into a post-apocalyptic fantasy adventure. It is none of those things and all those things, mashed together. The MC is Over Powered, but so are many, many others. He just hasn't met them yet. Dear Student, What follows is an adaption of the diary of Emmett Carter before his Ascension. While the decades during and after the Aurora Apocalypse are lost to us, the Ascended himself has allowed us to publish this work so long as we warn the reader that it may not be entirely accurate or present an unbiased viewpoint of the events. One should also note that the Aurora was in flux during that time and some things that were possible in the early days are no longer possible, especially with the advent of the Akashic record. Editors have included footnotes when possible to explain pre-aurora technologies or concepts and how they relate to current magical technologies. The contents of this work may upset readers. If you’ve ever been in a natural disaster, had a house fire, witnessed a murder, lost a loved one to violence, or have a strong opinion on the sanctity of life, please do not read this. It contains dramatic scenes of a world in the throes of an apocalyptic event. There are no rainbows and unicorns, only loss, uncertainty, and death while the survivors struggle to rebuild their lives. Updates Thursdays and Sundays for now. Word count is about 2000 ~ 4000ish per chappie.
