#ambys2026 When a high-profile influencer is found brutally murdered with a cryptic signature-a Jack of Spades and the word DARED written in blood-rookie officer Scarlett Dagon is thrust into the investigation alongside her guarded mentor, Detective Terence Ryley. Driven by her sharp psychological insights and aided by the precinct's brilliant, unsettling forensic psychiatrist, Dr. Elias Vermont, Scarlett uncovers a chilling connection to a three months ago "suicide" that the city's powerful tried desperately to bury. As the body count rises among Artshel's most elite circles, each scene staged with precision, the investigation fractures from within. Scarlett discovers a web of blackmail, a twisted high-society hazing ritual, and a devastating truth: Ryley himself was forced to compromise his integrity to keep the original tragedy hidden. With a phantom executioner playing a meticulous game of retribution and pulling the city's strings from the shadows, the lines between victim, perpetrator, and protector completely blur. With the final target in the killer's crosshairs, Scarlett faces a difficult choice: expose the corrupt foundation of the city and destroy the man she loves, or succumb to the dark silence that rules Artshel.

In the fog‑choked town of Mirageton, reality is never as solid as it seems. A man is found dead behind a shop's glass door - frozen in terror, blood smeared beneath his hands. He's the latest victim in a string of killings, each body discovered in abject horror, as if they had seen - and fought - something impossible. Across town, Ian Hale is coming apart. Plagued by migraines, violent dreams, and a reflection that doesn't always move when he does, he knows one thing for certain: something inside him is wrong. Something watching. Waiting. He wants to run, to leave the rot of Mirageton behind. But the town won't release him. Not his father, who treats him like a debt to be collected; not his own fracturing mind; and certainly not Elaine - sharp, relentless, and the daughter of the lead detective. She's hunting the truth behind the murders. And Ian may be the only thread that leads to it. One wrong move won't just expose him. It will shatter his life, hers, and everyone's in between. As suspicion spreads, an old legend bleeds into waking life. Reflections linger. Glass remembers. And the line between monster and victim begins to crack. The horror in Mirageton isn't just what's hiding in the mirrors. It's what's looking back. ONC 2026 Prompt 76: Your reflection smiles before you do and then begins mimicking things you never did.

Hailey Aurora had been spiraling for years - fighting, clawing, surviving the rot of an abusive home ever since her mother died. But survival has a cost, and hers came due in the form of a debt she could never repay. The night she almost killed her uncle was the moment everything twisted beyond repair. A single mistake. A single fracture in the fragile line she'd been walking. And then. Him. He said only one word. "Amore." After that, nothing was fine. Nothing would ever be again. Yet something shifts. He doesn't cage her. He watches, yes, but from a distance that lets her breathe. He lets her stumble, lets her fight her own battles, as if he trusts her strength more than she ever has. And sometimes, when he forgets himself, there is a quiet softness in him. A fleeting honesty that feels almost fragile. It unsettles her more than the fear ever did, Because somewhere in that silence, in those small, unguarded moments... She begins to feel again. ONC Prompt #78: "You begin to realize that nothing is quite what it seems." Also inspired by: #80 - "Monsters don't live under our beds. They live in the recesses of our minds." ✨Twilight✨
