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.

My mum always used to tell me what it's like to see your mate for the first time. She used to say that at that moment, everything around you stopped, that nothing else mattered. And nothing else would matter. If it wasn't for the little girl clinging to my leg right now. That little girl that trusts me with her life, that beautiful little girl that made me hold on and not give up on life. That little girl, whose father is standing in front of me right now. He's my mate. The edges of his lips curve and he looks up and down as if checking me out. "Long time no see." Are the words that first come out of his mouth that break the silence. ~~~~~~~~~~ Lexie is an Alpha's daughter. She faces a hard few days and thinks a night at the club will help her get through this. A few drinks won't hurt, right? At least that's what she thinks. Yet that night will change everything sooner than she would ever imagine. When the next day, her pack gets attacked, everything is chaos. Her mother and father are killed and her world shatters. She's forced to run away and leave everyone that she still has left behind. She thinks she has no one... that's until she finds out about another heartbeat in her body. Raising a baby on your own is hard enough. After a few years she finally meets her mate though and it turns out she knows him after all. How will she confess that her mate is actually her daughter's father? What will happen now? We don't live in a fairy tale where every story has a happy ending though. Real world isn't that easy...if you can call a world full of mystical creatures very real.

60 parts Complete Mature
Third book in The Risen Saga. After the death of the group's beloved friend, everyone is in a turmoil; Emma's heartbroken, Ava's rage finally lit to a bonfire, and Tyson falling into a pit of his own sorrows and self-harming ways. With Seth on the run and Abaddon breaking through the barriers in everyone's head, nobody feels safe. But how do they hide from the things outside their safe haven when they're scared of what's in their heads? They reinforce Headquarters with spells and traps but have doubt that it will be enough. Ava thought they were finally done dealing with her monster, but, clearly, she was wrong. Tyson starts blacking out and ending up in places that he has no recollection of how he got there. And Emma is ready to go on a manhunt, only, every time she even thinks of that night, she breaks down in a heap of her own blood and tears. The world is falling apart around them, quite literally. Where they thought Seth was focusing his attention on Ava and the Hidden World, they find he has bigger plans, due to his new ally. With every one of them being supernatural beings, they'd left their mundane lives behind and thought that humans were outside of their small, hidden circle and out of danger. But when mundane murders start drawing the Rebellion's attention, they suspect Seth is behind them. When Ava faces her fear against the monsters in her world, and in others, the fate of the world is settled on her shoulders. Yet again, she finds she is the only one to stand between life and death. Only, Seth isn't the only one with new allies. *ATTENTION*DO NOT SKIP* Do NOT copyright! This is my story.

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.)
