《The Lost Princess (Peter Pan OUAT Fanfic)》*Chapter 1- Running Away
Advertisement
My bedroom door flew open.
"Salina! What are you doing?" Mrs. Dorsey demanded.
I put my book down and sarcastically answered, "Snowboarding."
"Don't you use that tone with me! I came up here to tell you that Mr. Dorsey will be taking you to your new foster home tommorrow morning at six A.M. sharp!" She shouted.
I wasn't very shocked. I'd been through dozens of foster homes throughout my life.
"Why?" I asked
"What do you mean why?" She questioned.
"I want to know why I need a new foster home."
Her expression changed from annoyed to outraged.
"You're unwanted here! You're unwanted everywhere! You're such a little lost girl!" She screeched while storming out of the room.
I won't lie, she was telling the truth. I'm just an unwanted and unloved lost girl.
I felt a warm, wet tear slide down my cheek
"No Salina! You can't cry! That shows weakness!" I mentally scolded myself.
That's when the thought entered my mind. I could run away.
It would be easy, just wait until everyone's asleep, grab some clothes and money, hop out the window, And tadaa, I've made it!
Just thinking about it made me squirm in anticipation.

Packing List
*Clothes
*Shoes
*$210.00
*Instant Camera
"Why do you need a packing list?" A high pitched voice asked, causing me to jump.
I picked the little girl up and spun around.
"I told you to knock Martha May!" I scolded jokingly.
Her blonde pigtails bounced as she shook with laughter.
"Sorry!" She managed to say between laughs.
I put her down and she continued to beg, "Please tell me, pretty please with a cherry on top?"
I sighed and said,"You can't tell anyone, but I'm umm.." I trailed of trying to think of something, " Going to Neverland."

"With Peter Pan and the Lost Boys?" She asked with wide, wondrous eyes.
"Yes, but if you tell anyone I won't be able to go, so you have to promise not to tell anyone ok?"
"Ok!" She agreed cheerfully.
She began to walk out the door when she turned around and said, "Oh and Mommy wanted me to tell you it's time for dinner."
"I think she means eat the leftovers from the meal they already had." I thought.
I unwillingly walked down stairs and sat at the table.
"Took you long enough you brat." Mr. Dorsey mumbled.
I ignored him and looked at my "plethora" of food items, a half slice of ham, bread crumbs, and a tiny helping of green beans.
"Eat up pig!" Mrs. Dorsey shouted.
I quietly gobbled up the food and attempted to sneak back upstairs.
"Wait! Come back here" Mrs. Dorsey squawked.
I slowly shuffled back down the steps and stood in front of her. I refused to meet her gaze.
She smirked and said, "I can't leave you without a goodnight hug."
I stood stiff as a board as she wrapped her disgusting tentacles around me.
The only reason she did that was because if child protective services would get involved they would think she was a loving foster mother. Obviously she would be payed better too.
"Goodnight Salina!" She hollered as I sulked up the stairs.
The second I reached my room I shut the door and locked it. It was time to get down to business.
I stuffed my clothes in my little backpack. It was mostly flannels and elbow length button up sweaters. Then I grabbed my bright orange camera.
I held it in my hands and tried to remember the moment I got it, but I couldn't. I was too young. All I remembered was my Mother gave it to me when I was around two years old. It was the only possession I truly owned.

I placed it delicately in my bag. Now for the money. I had it stashed away in a little shoe box under my bed. Little did anyone know I had been stealing money from all of my foster families. It took me a while, but dollar by dollar, I gathered the money I needed.
Finally, my shoes. I put my Chuck Taylors and flip-flops in my bag and slipped on my Nikes.
Then I waited.
I decided to look at the little bracelets Martha May gave me. One was a braided leather bracelet that had a charm on it that said "I Believe." The other was a silver chain with a little bottle on it that had a little printed out piece of paper that said, "Second Star to the Right." both were references to Neverland.
It seemed like hours, but at 3:00 in the morning I heard no movement around the house. Finally I slid out my bedroom window with my backpack and said goodbye to Philadelphia. Except that's not what happened. Not at all.
The second I opened my window a dark, shadowy, figure grabbed me and before I knew it I was flying high in the sky.

The Infinite Labyrinth
(Story complete - Book 1 "Shanghaied", 2 "Shortcuts", 3 "Secrets" and 4 "Sanctions") It is the 19th century, and war smoulders between England and France. Any hope for a quick end to Napoleon's rampage across Europe ended when the Great Gates opened in 1800. For a fortunate few, the strange world of the Infinite Labyrinth offers opportunities, strange descriptors popping in their minds, informing them of growth, and status beyond that of a mere mortal. The materials and power crystal they bring back foster a new age, both military and civilian. Aether-powered Skyships prowl the skies, as all the great nations blessed by the Gates try to turn the blessings of the Labyrinth into immediate advantages. But for Jonas, an apprentice leatherworker, his friend Ira, and so many Londoners, the fabled ones that walk the Labyrinth are distant heroes, seen from afar. They fell short when their Potential was measured, and they fill their mundane lives with distant dreams. One man wants to break the stalemate. The Tyrant of the Dominion of France, Napoleon Bonaparte, has a plan. Eighteen years after the world changed, he will force it to change again. And when civilians are caught in the fallout, the unthinkable happens. Six people, unqualified, forbidden to ever enter the Labyrinth, find themselves stranded in a distant zone, forcefully turned into Professionals. They know little of what that means, but they have to figure out the rules that are now their lot, for they have little hope to escape their predicament otherwise. They need to understand what the descriptors in their minds mean, what each of the strange piece of gear waiting in treasure chests behind terrible guardians can bring them. They have to become Professionals on their own and rejoin the Empire. They will figure out their new lives one way or another. But will there be an Empire waiting for them when the Gates re-open? Caught in a clash of empires and high tiers, they will do what little they can. They will step up and do their best. One way or another. The Infinite Labyrinth is a slice-of-life litRPG adventure set in a real historical setting. It's a hard, crunchy litrpg. Expect blue boxes everywhere, and the system itself is very mathy. It started life as a serial. I prepared some proper worldbuilding, with enough details and background for lots of different potential story arcs, but as I wrote, I realized the main story needs to have a definitive end. So, there are four books in total, for a bit under 1500 pages, plus additional side stories, and even maybe a sequel one day. The Gore tag was added as a precaution because there are a few scenes with some light gore.
8 179Warhammer 40,000: Mind over Matter
Set in the Warhammer 40k universe, but accessible to those unfamiliar with the setting. The Imperium of Man has been fighting the Long War for ten thousand years. It is a war fought simultaneously across thousands of stars and against innumerable enemies. On smoke-filled battlefields and in the cold emptiness of the void the military might of the Imperium stands strong in the face of horrifying foes. It is not a war fought to conquer new lands, or to seize the wealth of enemy nations. It is a war fought to hold what they have, or to regain what they have already lost. The world of Nova Iberia is far from that war and supports the Imperium by sending her finest sons to foreign stars to fight and die as elite commandos in the Imperial Guard. A chance discovery on the corpse of one of these commandos has cast doubts around the world's loyalty, and has drawn the attention of the Imperial Inquisition. The seekers of the Alien, the Heretic and the Daemon have descended upon this peaceful world, and they will not leave it intact. Primaris Psyker Amelia Lafayette was a ward of the state, now bound as an acolyte to the Inquisition in recognition of her telepathic gifts. Inexperienced, and browbeaten by her training, she must adapt to her new circumstances or fall. If she can navigate the tangled webs of heresy, and survive life in the Inquisition, then she may find the opportunity to prove herself worthy of greater authority.

8 170(First Draft Old Version) Ruins Of Isulia ~ Book 1 : Awakening of the Emarine
My updated version has been released but this version is still getting views so I will leave it up for now. This is the old (First draft) version. Go check out my latest version. **************** Creatures once believed to be legend have invaded the kingdom of Vulkira. King Erik must overcome this crushing responsibility or let it consume his people. A haunting past eats away at the Queen of Xer. Cara is hellbent on protecting the ones she loves and the future of her kingdom. Balancing the greater good, she fights to keep her head above the waves of guilt. In a remote town, Henry, an energetic bookworm is thrust into the world as chaos engulfs his once seemingly peaceful world. His lord has a task for him, one in which will change his life forever. Wars brew, betrayal is at each corner, shadows step into the light, a supernatural force awaits the time to strike. Awakening an ancient civilization from their past may be their only hope now. A spiraling doom awaits the world of Isulia. **************** I put the gore and traumatizing warnings not because my book is overly gory. However, there are a few moments that may be traumatizing to some people. As for the gore, it shows up fairly often but not extensively. I've always loved violence in movies and books, (The Boys, Banshee, Kingdom of heaven, Vikings, etc.) I am descriptive of the scenes with gore. So be warned :) I have multiple MC and as a nooby writer, I've had a harder time writing from a female POV. Just a heads up. Don't kill me if I make the woman in my book seem weird.
