Summary
Percy Jackson won the war, but the gods never let their heroes rest. Forced into a new, solitary service, he is the only male permitted to walk alongside the Hunters of Artemis in the choking darkness of the Appalachian Trail.
He is not alone.
A predator has found him-a terrifying, flesh-wearing entity that should not exist. And Percy is its target.
As the creature begins its slow, psychological dismantling, the lines between sanity and madness blur. He can not sleep, he can not eat, and his legendary powers turn brittle as the entity feasts on his mind.
To Artemis and her Hunters, this is not a monster attack; this is a warrior turning weak, a male proving their absolute skepticism right. Even Thalia, his closest friend, sees only lies.
He is breaking, and they are watching him do it.
By the time the Hunters realize the horrifying truth-that their newest Guardian - has been silently, ruthlessly targeted-it may be too late.
Can they save the broken hero from a monster only he can see, or will the darkness in the woods consume the last piece of Percy Jackson before his allies even believe it exists?

Erich never asked to be the quiet guy hiding in Japan, minding his own introvert business, until a simple lunch break cracks open the universe.

Summary
The air felt stifling in seconds, the atmosphere freezing instead of a chill like before. The creature turned its attention to you, the voices and sounds going silent for the briefest second...
All too quickly, It let out a loud shriek, the sound echoing uncomfortably along the decaying walls. Its mouth was hanging open as it rushed forward with razor sharp teeth. Letting out a terrified shout, you pressed as tightly back against the painting behind yourself, hands coming up to cover your face..
It was too loud. Too much. Too cold- your head felt like it was splitting open at the seams. It was overwhelming. All you wanted was to break down and cry like some scared child in its presence.
For a split second all you saw was the creature, its eyes wide, an unnatural blue as it let out one last, terrifying scream.

Summary
Danny and his friends think they have a good grasp on things. Ghosts were real and needed to be fought, simple enough. Until a new ghost appears in town and it isn't. And then there were Aliens. And some foreign exchange students, but that's not important.
Things are about to get weird. Like, really weird.

Summary
In August 1882, bounty hunters Jess and Jhett McFarlane, and sheriff and deputy Thomas Walker and Joe Greenman begin to encounter some strange things. The weather is weird, the animals ain't acting right, and the dead have risen. Is this the end of the world?
The answer isn't so simple. When an out of control fire ravages Thomas and Joe's town, they uproot their lives and head for New Mexico to meet with a former friend who will take them in. Along the way, strange, seemingly unkillable creatures emerge from the earth. What are they, and where did they come from? No one knows for sure. But one thing is certain: they are out for blood.
Meanwhile, an entire state away, Jess McFarlane is thrust into an almost lethal encounter with one of the creatures. Injured and fighting an infection from its deadly bite, she realises that, though she managed to escape death, she hadn't been completely freed from its clutches. Unwilling to sit around waiting for the infection to take hold, she sets off on one last adventure before she meets her doom. Unfortunately, fate has other plans for her.

Summary
When Tommy speaks again, his voice is hoarse from the smoke curling in his mouth, "D'you do this with all the pretty girls you take on weird cryptid roadtrips?"
Spencer huffs a quiet laugh. "Fuck you," he says. It's quiet at this end of town. They can't see the stars, but it's still good. Spencer tips to the side, resting his head on Tommy's shoulder.
(or: spencer and tommy go on a roadtrip together to visit various cryptid hotspots. maybe the real roadtrip was the horrors we ran into along the way.)

Summary
Number one rule for working the night shifts at the sketchy gas station in the middle of butt-fuck nowhere was to not look at them, and they would leave you alone. They weren’t even supposed to see you if you didn’t look at them - just flicker the lights, rattle some shelves, and inflict the fear of death into your bone marrow.
Then, one night, one of them with stupid eyebrows and a serious attitude problem chose to come in only to start yelling at Zoro, who had done literally nothing to deserve it.
**
OR: Zoro works at a gas station that gets creepy visitors at night. One of them is more annoying than the others. -

What's worse than a dead-end job? Being a librarian in a town where nobody reads.
But it all begins to turn around when an oddly intriguing researcher appears to check out books. Could it be years of mind-numbing work that makes you so interested in this nerd, or is there something more?

Summary
Monoma was desperate.
The toll of All For One in his body, in his system, in his veins, proved to be far too much for him and his Quirk, as opposed to Shigaraki’s hulking, god-like form and gallery of stolen Quirks to keep him alive.
Surprisingly, it wasn’t All For One that directly led to this, but the mere existence of it now being in his body, in his head, that led him to take his life.
It wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment attempt to escape reality- It was to end it.
For better or for worse, Monoma couldn’t even succeed.
OR:
AU Ending to “Keep your brain spinning.” where Monoma survives. Original story by shalbef, who gave me permission.
