16 years ago
7 year old Derek sat outside of the hospital. He knew he would be in trouble when his mom found out where he went, but he couldn't help it. A smell had filled his nose leading him to this place.
Derek quickly walked in and looked around, the smell was coming from the Baby room. Now Derek being him, had to find the smell. Slowly he walked over and into the Baby room. The smell was stronger now, he followed it to a baby boy.
The baby opened his eyes and big brown ones looked back at him. This was him. Derek found the person. That's when the nurse came in.
Derek quickly ran out and back home. He couldn't keep the baby boy out of his head. Those big brown eyes stared back at him every time he closed his.
8 years later (Derek is 15)
The smell grew stronger with each year. Derek wanted to be by the child now. It was like a drug that you couldn't stop from using. Then he met Paige.
He felt a pull to her, he wanted to be with her forever, and finally he felt like he could forget about the boy from the hospital. That is until he lost her.
He felt like he was going to die, wanted to kill himself too...but then the smell came again to him. It was mixed with pain, sadness, and fear.
Derek followed the smell yet again to see the Sheriff, his son standing next to him. The smell came from the little boy. They were both wearing suites.
They stood next to an open grave...the mother was no where in sight. Derek realized what had happened. The boy had lost his mother. He could still smell her, but only a little, her smell was over the boy.

Pain filled Derek's heart, the boy was hurt and sad and Derek couldn't do anything about it. If he went to the boy it would be weird. So he watched from afar.
2 year later (Derek is 17)
Derek sat with Laura in the hospital. Tears did not fall, but pain filled his heart, walls built themselves up as his uncle was wheeled into a room. Derek could still hear the screams from his family as they burned alive.
Laura let go of his hand heading to the bathroom, When the smell hit Derek again. He looked up to see the boy again smiling with another boy.
A nurse came by them and said, "Scott, I have a new inhaler for you. Come with me." The other boy smiled and followed the nurse, leaving the boy that had the smell alone.
The boy looked up and right at Derek. He smiled and walked over to him. "Hi!" This boy was hipper, "My name's Stiles, what's yours?" Derek looked at him then said, "I'm Derek." Stiles jumped up and sat next to Derek.
"Why are you sad?" He asked. "My family died...in a fire..." Derek said looking away from Stiles. The smell was stronger next to him. Stiles looked down.
"I lost my mom too.." Derek looked at Stiles but said nothing. That's when the other boy, Scott, came back.
He smiled at Stiles as he got up walking over to Scott and the nurse. Just before they where about to leave Stiles stopped and looked back at Derek. "Spider Man lost both of his parents too."
With that they left, leaving Derek alone. Thinking about what Stiles had said. That was the last time Derek ever saw the boy with the pulling smell.

The Legend of Ghost
This is a quick novella origin story to one of fan-favorite characters in the ZERO universe, Sam Dobbs, a.k.a. Slade Gardner, a.k.a. the Ghost. I wrote it for current ZERO series fans, after many insistent, fervent, teary-eyed demands. Still, I think it pretty much works as a stand-alone, so I'll post it here. (He gets the name Ghost later, not as part of this story...this is just the why he decided to do what he did, being slightly insane and all.) Lots of easter eggs for current fans. 15k words total, chapters will be approx. 2.5k each. Oh, and if you get turned off by crazy, hyperintelligent antisocials being crazy, hyperintelligent antisocials, this isn't the story for you. ;)

The Time Tower (the first visit)
****** There are certain universal desires, and chief among them is the desire to possess a button that will allow you to turn back time. The answer to all your problems. They thought that they had discovered the means to achieve the secret desire of their hearts. They thought they’d discovered magic. But we know that magic does not exist. Not in the way that most people wish it would. It was only an illusion. You cannot turn back time. You can only move forward. ****** Only two truths are certain. The Tower must come down. That is their only goal. Pima isn't certain that it's even possible, but when the task falls to her, she must try to set aside all her past fears and failures to reach into the past and change the future of the world. That's the first thing truth: The Tower must come down. The second is...It knows you're here, and it doesn't like being disturbed. ****** Note on the subtitle: Think of The Time Tower as a television mini-series. There are multiple parts, and sometimes you have to wait for the next one. Apart, they are somewhat short. Together, they are longer than a regular movie. This is part one - the first visit to The Time Tower.

The Book of Hickory
Now why did Hickory go and punch that Angel? Sure it spooked him, popping up right there at lunch, and yet, it wasn't fear that balled his hand into a fist - Cause wouldn't you? Wouldn't anyone - with a sick Ma at home, Da long dead, buried, all them prayers piling up on bruised knees, unanswered? Hickory was angry, all right. He was fierce, now - cause that Angel didn't show up to give no help, that Angel came by asking for it - with all that power just plain to see, the power to fix the world and all that ails it! And now look what poor Hickory has to do - to save the world? Now how is he supposed to do that when its taking near everything he's got - just to keep them chickens safe, Ma fed, and himself out of trouble - All he wanted was maybe just a dance with May, maybe a bit more, to hold her close? That she's sweet, now, a voice like an angel, but now she's over there lookin at him like he's more than a man. And that's not to say Hickory is bad, not all the time, not ever on purpose - just there are things a man has to - That drinking and fighting ain't wrong just as long as the chores are done proper first, that those parts of life that make it worth living ain't no sin, that loving a lady is proper and Hickory just has so much love to give! And May is special, right, sweet and soft, now she's sophisticated. That she wears her passion like a pearl necklace? That certainly Hickory would notice, naturally - that she's already spoken for, perhaps taken? That ever since Hickory came back, that all she can think about is swallowing - those strange feelings, because it wouldn't do, would it? For a Lady? But certainly she can worship him and still be seen with Weston Covanger? Because Weston needs May, that what happens in the Study is only half the battle, the Men's Business, and he's far too proud to settle for half of anything. That if he wants to move up the ranks of his family, to be more than a Covanger, to become the Covanger? He's going to need a woman in the Kitchen as well - he's going to need May. And if that seems a bit old fashioned? A bit too much like the Wild West? Well the West is starting to get wild again now that everyone starts to Drink. A different take on LitRPG where answers aren't given - they must be earned, discovered and fought for, one at a time. An orator style, a long read, filled with magic buildings, crafting, alchemy, but most of all - This is a story about the human spirit. About understanding what defines a person, their morals, their beliefs, and also faith when everything they understand becomes challenged - changed. So do they. People can change. They will. Just not always for the better, not always - sometimes. Sometimes that's enough. Sometimes that's even everything.
