It happened from one day to another. All the good people were gone.

Persephone Pettigrew lives in a world, full of people who have done terrible things. Very bad things. Like murder, violent blackmail, robberies etc. Where did the good people go?

But that's not the only thing happening. The world that the good people have left and where the bad people are trapped on, is dying. The animals are nearly extinct, and the bacteria are slowly dying. The world is a ticking time bomb. It's a race against the clock.
It's hopeless, and there is no way out. It looks like some kind of punishment for all the bad people.

She is scared and is constantly on the run. Hiding from the wicked people.
Luckily she's not alone. She's with a guy named Isaac. But she doesn't open up to him. She wants as little as possible to do with him and refuses to build a bond with him. It makes her weak and vulnerable, she thinks. And now she that can't find her family, she doesn't need another friend who she can lose. But this also makes her lonely.

There is no logical explanation for the disappearances, but will Persephone ever see her family again? Can she escape from this wicked, evil world? Or is she doomed? She is trapped, can she ever get out?
But the biggest question of all;
What did Persephone do?

prologue:

Everything around me is dying and I don't know how to stop it.I'm dying with everything around me. It's killing me that life isn't what I expected it to be; an adventure. But maybe dying is the adventure for me.

Monster Beneath The Surface (Solangelo AU) by Doctor_Orders1932
28 parts Complete
Everyone in town knows about the sea monster. Every night, he goes into town to find his prey. He lures them in with his voice, only to bring them back to the ocean, to eat them. Few survive this, and the people who do, they lose their mind, like they were cursed. You can only gather from them that he was beautiful, his voice was like an angel's, and that when he took you into the ocean, he became a monster. He only hunted young men, women, teens, and the occasional twelve-year old. It was terrifying, because the people had no way to stop him. Every night, someone would go missing, or come back insane. They knew he lived in the ocean, and when people tried to bomb the area where they thought the monster lived, they would either be cursed, or just eaten by the sea monster himself. And the people who came back insane, they would always wander over the fact that the monster had not even a scratch on him. Teens, young men and women would fear for their lives, and lock themselves in their houses at night. But only one person refused to hide, either in bravery or utter stupidity. That person was Will Solace. So basically, this story is based on the cover art of the book. I just thought it was such a great idea and wanted to put it to story. I saw another person do this and they used the same cover art, and I hope you guys like my version! I, personally very much like it and hope you guys do to! (I don't own any of the characters or art work that appears in this fanfic. All of the characters belong to Rick Riordan.)

You've just woken in the woods, away from everything you know. You're dazed and confused, unable to comprehend what's just happened. As you are coming to, images flash before your eyes of the last few days. Your parents were taken by the police, you were forced to run, to leave everything behind, to save yourself and your sister. But she isn't here. You panic and look around, you stop. You remember. She too was taken, you are alone. For now. This is what happened to Alexander, his life has just been turned upside down. The year is 2415, the world has both evolved and devolved. It isn't how people imagined. Flying cars, robots in every house, telekinetic pencils. No, they are only in comic books. Self driving cars. No robots in houses, but workhouses instead. Telekinetic pencils... that's possible, if you are gifted with the power of telekinesis. There are dark truths hidden behind closed doors, that only few know. Truths that if they got out, would bring the downfall of the government. A government that has been deceiving people for generations. But they haven't been as careful as they thought, because 100 years ago, one guy found out their secrets. 100 years ago, one guy started the rebellion that would bring about the end. From burning books, rewriting history and breaking human rights, this government will stop at nothing to make it seem that they are doing good. But people have had enough, the secret came out before. It's only a matter of time until it happens again. This time by a group of people that no one expected. Together they work to find out the truth, but things have gotten worse over the last century and this may not only bring around the downfall of the government. Armed only the powers they were born with, the group do everything they can to discover the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. But many have tried and failed, do they really stand a chance? Alexander doesn't think so, but his main concern is finding his sister, Rosia.

[COMPLETED - ONLY MINORLY EDITED] ******************************************************** Greek myths - true or false? They should be false, and to 16-year-old Sophie Claire, it's never crossed her mind that they aren't. Until one day in History class when her teacher spends a day on Greek mythology and something strange starts happening - her friends and classmates begin to tell myths about certain Greek deities with frightening precision. And for some reason, she's began to feel a certain affinity for Persephone, the Greek maiden who was kidnapped by Hades, the Lord of the Underworld, and forced into a marriage with him. This isn't some coincidence or freak dream, she later finds out from a host of strange individuals who claim they're from Olympus, the grandoise home of the gods themselves. She is actually a modern reincarnation of the goddess Persephone, and she's not the only one. A few of her classmates also happen to represent the gods and goddesses from popular Greek myths, and the fact that all of them are present means that something monumental is about to happen. Something like being the girl to change Persephone's future, to break the cycle of kidnapper and victim - all by passing a trial. It won't be simple, she knows, and she's not quite that eager to take it up, but from the moment she found out that she was Persephone, there was no way to back out. She should've known, however, that dealing with all powerful, immortal deities wasn't going to be easy. They've got a few secrets and personality flaws up their sleeves, and they could be deadly. More than deadly - murderous.

*Short Story* It is difficult to stay with the people who look down at you like you are some kind of disease. It hurts when they don't want to acknowledge you for the good things you have done. It hurts when your family rejects you only because you are quiet and weak saying you are good for nothing. Annie Ryan was nothing but a quiet, innocent teenager waiting for her mate to save her from the dark hell she was living in. She had only one dream, she wanted to feel loved, she wanted someone to tell her that they care and would love her no matter what happens. But little did she know that she was just another unfortunate soul whose mate had different plans. Caden was an young alpha. He had everything but where everyone was eager to meet their mate, he wasn't. He had already given his position of alpha female to his girlfriend. But after she left him, he turned cold and ruthless. But when he met Annie, his mate, one thing was clear. He wanted nothing to do with her. He asked her to leave but when she declined, he paid her no attention like she never existed. Annie was broken. Her dream was just a dream. Every night she closed her eyes, she realized she was going to die alone with no one to care. She wanted to end her life but not before setting everything right, not before her destined alpha mate finds his happiness. Caden didn't know what he was missing until he lost it. Maybe that's how life works. Maybe that's why it is called cruel.

"He can die 'cause we haven't had sex?" I say as the weight of what she's just told me hits me like a ton of bricks. "The longer the Alpha stays in that state the more dangerous it gets. The pressure on the body because of a conflict with his decision not to mate with you and his wolf's need to mate carries a huge risk." BLACK MOON Book One completed a stand-alone story. ***** Alpha Mikkeli Blackwood is strong, but he wasn't always strong. His past was painful and full of fear until because of his first kill he gained respect. Now 27 he rules his pack with an iron fist as an Alpha of the Blackwood Pack. Even though strict and merciless Mikkeli is a fair leader who values power a little too much. With a sudden exposure to his older brother's secrets, he is forced to give shelter and protection to relatives he has never expected to have. To make matter worse one of them is 19 years old human girl who seems to be the first one in years not to show any respect for him... Hannah has just lost her parents and is now faced with the responsibility to raise her 3 werewolf siblings being human herself along with a sudden danger lurking in the shadows. Forced to trust those she was taught to never trust, Hannah has to face a completely new life in the werewolf pack ruled by forceful Alpha Blackwood. Although werewolves shouldn't have secrets from their pack, Hannah is to find out that Blackwood Pack is full of secrets and some of them are deadly... „The book had all sorts of elements of emotions like mystery, romance, guilt, etc. I loved the plot, glad it's not a regular rejection book. Love how the story is unfolding after each chapter" Review by @simrangharge, Twirling pages (The Review book) THIS IS MY FIRST BOOK AND I HOPE YOU ALL WILL HAVE AS MUCH FUN READING IT AS I HAD WRITING IT :) THERE ARE SOME HEAVY TOPICS MENTIONED (like rape and child abuse).
