Hey guys! Riku here. I am sort of new to fanfiction writing, but have been reading it off and on for years. Anyway, I love writing so I hope I can make my stories interesting enough to bring y'all smiles!

Note: I don't know why, but a lot of people think I'm a guy. I'm not, promise. I'm 100 % female- though I guess since I can laugh at our gender's chiche problems and weaknesses in my fanfics it can be confusing.

A bit of background information:

I am a music education major- a junior by hours, sophomore by year. This means I have a ton of homework, practice, ect. that eats away at my time. I try to upload regularly but if it takes over a month sometimes, please be patient. I am open to (AND ENCOURAGE) people to private message me! Seriously, just strike up a conversation about the differences between anime, the climate, or even gripe about your day; I welcome it. However, I've gotten...several different people just asking to be friends with out introducing themselves. While I love to start up beautiful friendships, know that making that your first line puts me off. Instead, let's just talk a bit.

Fun note: I actually met who I now consider my best friend on this site! She's spunky, hilarious, and I have never met someone so chipper yet down to earth as she is.

So, I am open to meeting new people!

Regarding reading/editing Stories: Um...I'd love too? I mean, it's fine, I've read a couple of y'all's through private messaging and I enjoy it. Just give me a heads up before you do and I will try my best to get it done. If you just want to bounce ideas off of one another, I'm open to that too; in fact, a few avid readers are familiar with me asking them for help for my stories when I completely hit walls.

Finally, if you want to talk outside of fanfiction private messages, you can ask for my gmail. I won't give it unless we've been chatting for awhile, but I'm open to it.

Thank you for reading my stories, I hope to continue to bring quality content.

TRUE STORY

A teenage girl about 17 named Diane had gone to visit some friends one evening and time passed quickly as each shared their various experiences of the past year. She ended up staying longer than planned, and had to walk home alone. She wasn't afraid because it was a small town and she lived only a few blocks away.

As she walked along under the tall elm trees, Diane asked God to keep her safe from harm and danger. When she reached the alley, which was a short cut to her house, she decided to take it. However, halfway down the alley she noticed a man standing at the end as though he were waiting for her. She became uneasy and began to pray, asking for God's protection. Instantly a comforting feeling of quietness and security wrapped round her, she felt as though someone was walking with her. When she reached the end of the alley, she walked right past the man and arrived home safely.

The following day, she read in the newspaper that a young girl had been raped in the same alley just twenty minutes after she had been there. Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy and the fact that it could have been her, she began to weep. Thanking the Lord for her safety and to help this young woman, she decided to go to the police station. She felt she could recognize the man, so she told them her story. The police asked her if she would be willing to look at a lineup to see if she could identify him. She agreed and immediately pointed out the man she had seen in the alley the night before. When the man was told he had been identified, he immediately broke down and confessed. The officer thanked Diane for her bravery and asked if there was anything they could do for her. She asked if they would ask the man one question. Diane was curious as to why he had not attacked her. When the policeman asked him, he answered, "Because she wasn't alone. She had two tall men walking on either side of her." Amazingly, whether you believe or not, you're never alone. Did you know that 98 of teenagers will not stand up for God, and 93 of the people that read this won't repost it?

Repost this if you truly believe in God.

PS: God is always there in your heart and loves you no matter what, and if you stand up for him he will stand up for you.

If you believe in Jesus Christ put this in your profile and don't just ignore this, because in the Bible it says if you deny me, I will deny you in front of my Father in the gates of Heaven

Note: I got the above part from silverwolf310. You should go read her stories, especially her One piece one, 'The Hidden Fox of the Sea'. It's sweet, and Luffy can turn into a nine-tailed fox!
