Retelling Stories

A retelling/reimagining of Poppy Playtime based on the events of Poppy Playtime Chapters 1 through 5. The story follows a young adult man in his mid-to-late 20's by the name of Cameron Wallace, who interned at the Playtime Co. toy factory over a decade ago as a teenager due to his father, Patrick Wallace, working there as well. After the mysterious disappearance of the staff just days after he and his father left, Cameron receives a lead over a decade later that his former co-workers may still be alive but trapped within the factory. Following the clues left to him, Cameron returns to the abandoned Playtime Co. factory once more to see if he can solve the mystery of what happened on August 8th, 1995, as well as what was going on within the factory that led to his father's suicide years after their departure from Playtime. (This story, like the original game, may describe unsettling topics. Take caution while reading.)

Daria D'Artagnan was just a farm girl. The Three musketeers Athos, Porthos and Aramis were just soldiers. But all four found they were more than just titles given to them. Love, Revenge and Swords make for a good time. But when it comes to being a woman in the 17th century she must decide what's worth fighting for...

"Ye shaadi humare liye sirf ek sauda hai aur kuch nahi." In the golden sands of Jaisalmer, Abhay Pratap Singh is the Reaper-a king who rules with an iron fist. He took a throne through bloodshed and forced a woman into a marriage of revenge, only to exile himself to the shadows of London. Two years later, the Prince of Ice has returned, but he finds Kashi waiting with a sword to his throat and a fire he can no longer control. But the Sheesh Mahal holds more than one ghost. Samar Pratap Singh, the younger prince, returns from a decade in exile to a debt of honor he never signed for. Bound by a father's vow to a woman who has every reason to loathe his name, Samar is forced into an engagement with Gauri-his childhood sweetheart turned stranger. The Storm is fighting to keep his heart from melting; the Sea is trying to bridge a trench of ten years of silence and lies. Two brothers. Two destinies. One palace of mirrors where every secret is a heartbeat and every kiss is a battlefield. In the Sheesh Mahal, trust is the most expensive commodity... and the price of love is paid in blood. A Little Rambling... "This story is a heartfelt tribute to the legends that shaped my imagination; certain characters and arcs are lovingly inspired by my favorite works. I carry their essence forward in this new journey of my own. If you recognize the ghosts in these mirrors, know that they are here as guests of my heart." (An Alternate Universe retelling written to explore these characters and their dynamics through a healthier, different lens.)

** Behind the Sea of Mists of Avalon, more than just one destiny changes in a single night... ** Once, Uther and Igraine Pendragon ruled over Albion-a realm united by love, magic, and the ancient faith. But in a single night of blood and betrayal, the Golden Age falls. Only two children are said to have escaped the bloody assassination: Arthur and Arianna Pendragon. But their trail was lost in the mists of Avalon-and with it, the legacy of the dragon. The dragon is dead. Long live the king. Years later, Albion is a land of shadows. The Crusades have left behind blood and famine; magic is forbidden, and the old religion is persecuted with fire and sword. *** After Robin has exposed her in the most shameful way, Marian seeks a new path outside the walls of Huntingdon and far from Robin of Locksley: under the name Ahren, as a squire in the service of the legendary Silver Knight, Sir Lancelot, she hopes to finally find the long-awaited freedom in Bamburgh. Simon, another squire, soon suspects, however, that there is more to the clumsy newcomer than meets the eye. When Ahren is finally abducted to Avalon under cover of night, the first events begin to unfold that will ultimately change not only the fate of Simon and Ahren, but also that of all of Albion forever. For the land needs more than heroes: it needs hope. And sometimes, hope begins with a whisper... ***** Volume 2 of the A BALLAD OF HEROES SERIES

When Will Vandom arrives in Heatherfield, she expects the usual turbulence of teenage life. Instead, she's chosen by the Heart of Kandrakar-an ancient, sentient artifact that binds her to four girls she barely knows. Irma, Taranee, Cornelia, and Hay Lin each manifest powers shaped by their magical destinies. Together, they become guardians of the fragile barrier between worlds. But Meridian's tyrant Phobos is growing stronger, the rebellions leader Caleb is on the run and creatures slip through the cracks into Heatherfield. As danger escalates, the girls must navigate magic that amplifies their vulnerabilities and threatens their relationships. Leadership becomes a burden Will never asked for, and friendship becomes both their greatest weapon and their most fragile fault line. This reimagining blends grounded emotional realism with fast‑paced magical tension, expanding the worldbuilding and deepening the character arcs to deliver a story that appeals to both fans of the original series and readers seeking fresh, character‑driven fantasy. It's a novel about five girls discovering that power is never simple-and friendship is the greatest magic. Disclaimer: I DO NOT own W.I.T.C.H

They say the King of the Dead stole the spring. They're wrong. I walked into the dark on my own two feet. For a hundred years my mother kept me in a garden that couldn't die - safe, beloved, and buried alive. Then the earth opened, and he was standing in it: still, and vast, and the first creature in all my life to look at me like I was real. He didn't ask me to stay small. So let the poets carve their lie into the temple walls. Let them call it a kidnapping. I know what it was. It was the first time I was ever allowed to fall. She went down as Kore, the maiden. She is going to come back up as something the world should fear.
