below deck a titanic story read aloud

In the concrete jungles of Montego Bay, Jamaica, 14-year-old Kyle Wilson doesn’t have much—just an absent father, a worn-out pair of shoes, and a rusted rim hanging behind his rundown school. But what he does have is height, heart, and hunger. When he stumbles across basketball for the first time, a fire ignites inside him. It’s not just a game. It’s escape. Identity. A way out. Above the Rim, Below the Poverty Line is a coming-of-age sports drama that follows Kyle from the raw streets of Jamaica to the polished courts of America, and eventually to the world stage. But talent alone won't be enough. Poverty, violence, betrayal, and self-doubt lurk around every corner. This is a journey about more than basketball—it’s about survival, legacy, and the cost of chasing greatness.

He wanted a girlfriend. He got an eternal nightmare. It started with a download. It ends with the collapse of reality. [Warning: This is a love story, but it is a descent into madness.] #DarkRomance #CosmicHorror #Multiverse #Depression All artwork/illustrations are made by me. This story focuses on flow and emotion rather than perfect grammar. Some parts may feel rough, but that’s part of the experience. I’m still improving my writing over time. POP (Point of Person) The AI helps me fix the grammar. Or maybe... she is the one writing this now. Sorry for my bad English. This is my first novel, but I will definitely keep writing until I reach the ending. I still can't let my first novel end like this. I'll definitely rewrite it and continue the story in my next novel, "The Deck: Normal Life."

Children of the Hush: Season 2 The hush should have died in fire and screams. But shadows know how to hide among roots and bones. Rafi and the braid girl thought they were free — scarred but alive — after crawling from the forest’s burning heart. They fled the hollow that swallowed lost children and turned secrets into nightmares. They carved warnings into trees. They tried to breathe like normal kids. But the hush remembers them. Deep beneath the forest floor, something festers: a pulsing nest of memories, dead kin, and broken promises. Whispers find new mouths — creatures twisted from root and dream stalk the tunnels. The hush tests Rafi’s resolve and poisons the braid girl’s sleep, feeding on fear and guilt they thought they’d left behind. To escape again, they must plunge deeper than ever before — through bone bridges, spore-choked caverns, and the mind of the hush itself. Betrayals bloom. Nightmares walk. Fire must meet root one last time. In the end, there will be ash on their tongues… or silence forever. Some forests should never be woken twice.

Jamie must survive this nightmare realm and uncover its sickening truths if he hopes to rescue his sister—and himself.

We choose to breathe, don't we?

I thought death was the end. Then I woke in a world where fate could be bought with blood. Here, interdimensional gates connect humanity to Grimmyth—a realm of cosmic horrors, ancient vestiges, and impossible power. Those chosen by it become Grimlocks, the Warlocks of Grimmyth, receiving the power to reshape their destiny. Grimlocks hunt Grimmons and earn a living with the power they received. Guilds raid Grimlores and rule like empires with the riches they loot. Government explores, regulates, and stands guard against Grimmyth—the unknown frontier where horrors beyond imagination await. Crayon V. Wyatt was a poor soul who was never meant to stand among them. Betrayed, indebted, and disgraced, he was beaten and left to die — until I inherited the name and everything that came with it. Grimmyth chose me. Now I wield the power of Grimmyth as its chosen Warlock. In a world both deadly and breathtaking beautiful, I don’t want to just survive. I intend to uncover its mysteries, challenge its frontiers, and experience everything it dares to offer. ... A Grim Deck building saga by IGotStones

In the holy city of Asterra, the gods are worshipped above all else. Beneath its grand cathedral, however, something far older than the gods continues to breathe. Cael Veyr, a weak corpse handler from the city's lowest district, has spent his entire life buried among the dead. Powerless, forgotten, and mocked by everyone around him, he survives by carrying bodies into the endless burial chambers beneath the cathedral. Until the night the black rain falls. On that night, Cael hears a voice calling to him from deep below the earth. An ancient heartbeat begins to echo with his own, and the sealed horrors hidden beneath the holy city slowly awaken. The world believes the gods protect humanity. They are wrong. The gods are guarding a prison. As corruption spreads and monstrous truths begin crawling into the light, Cael is dragged into a path of refinement, madness, and evolution—where every gain in power comes with a terrifying cost. Because beneath the cathedral… a buried god has finally opened its eyes.

Two sisters are born. Ursula and Morgana. One beloved (Not really). And the other ignored and not taken seriously. Living at the very bottom of the Atlantic Ocean in an empire led by their mother, they each had their role to play. You would think being the daughters of the most feared empress in all the oceans would be fun. But alas, it wasn't always like that. They are trained to hurt and kill since childhood. But for the two sisters, it's normal. Just another chore to do. They weren't really evil. Living in the Kingdom of Atlantica has its perks. For Triton, it was meeting a certain beautiful redhead. The non-perks would be getting captured and tortured by eight-armed freaks to be used as slaves, and then having their bodies dumped in front of their kingdom. (Oh, and don't forget being abandoned since birth and dealing with a snobby purple-haired mermaid.) You think you know the story? Evil witch tricks a stupid teenager into running off with a stranger and then gets shishkabobed? Then the crazy witch's sister appears after more than 15 years later to avenge and copy her sister who tried to rule all the oceans and then tricks another stupid teenager into robbing her grandpa before getting turned into an ice cube? Ha! Fool. This is the story beyond the fathoms you think you know. I don't own many of these characters, all credit goes to the people who helped put this movie together, like Pat Caroll , Samuel E. Wright, Jodi Benson, Jason Marin, Howard Ashman, John Musker, etc. I am not an expert in marine creatures, so I'm sorry if I get things wrong. (There is violence because this is the story of two of the most infamous Disney villains, so caution is advised there could be some potentially triggering content in here. And there's some cringe on the way I'm a noob)

When she opened her eyes, she had inexplicably returned to twenty years ago, the first day of the apocalypse escape. "Classmate, you're a Superpower User, right? How about considering joining our special operations squad?" Looking at the man opposite her with sparkling, charming eyes, Xie Ning heartlessly refused: "Thanks, I have a team." "Ah, what team do you have?" "No team." "Right, you're beautiful, so whatever you say is right. How about this, you join our squad, and I will accompany you through wind and rain, and go through fire and water with you to clear dungeons and kill monsters." "Every single day, year after year?" "Mhm! I will work hard to make money, and only for you. How does that sound?" Xie Ning: ... After being reborn, her small Space has turned into a large, mobile villa, and she originally just wanted to live her own quiet little life in peace. Never did she expect to attract such a clingy, devilishly charming man. Question: How does one heartlessly and coldly reject a charmer? Waiting online for an answer, it's quite urgent...
