My first book, "Wicked Normal," kicks off my Persephone Smith series.  I have heard feedback on Wattpad that folks would like to see where the characters started... so I'm giving my Wattpad readers a taste.  Note: some don't show up until later books, but this is where it all started...

Growing up with a unique quality, one assumes that everyone else does, too. Persephone Smith, the self-confident, fifth grade, narrating protagonist of "Wicked Normal," innocently views herself as "wicked normal," believing that everyone has the natural powers to have psychic visions, precognitive dreams, see ghosts, and make actions occur by speaking them. "Wicked Normal" chronicles the year when she discovers power in her natural abilities and realizes that not everyone has run-ins with fairies or communicates with ghosts. 
 
In many ways, her life is perfectly ordinary. She is the only child of Wally and Demi Smith, who provide her with a strong moral fiber, a very clear sense of right and wrong, and safety from the world. Although she describes her life as the "happily ever after," this year is full of complicated situations and shows her happiness exists solely because her parents love her, and each other, unconditionally. 
 
Despite a strong vocabulary and advanced maturity, Persephone is not perfect, making impulsive, innocently naïve choices with consequences. Her peers include: Gabby, the whiny tattle-tale at day camp; Coral, Persephone's "best friend" who throws temper tantrums if she doesn't get her way; Charles, the quintessential sci-fi/fantasy pre-teen geek; Joey, Persephone's blue-eyed, dimpled, crush; along with Seth, Jade, and others. 
 
"Wicked Normal" is intended for ages 9 and up. The real-life Vermont setting, lovable characters, and realistic fifth grade predicaments blend with the fantasy element of extraordinary powers to create an escape from reality for any "wicked normal" readers.All Rights Reserved

Natural Masochism (Sequel) by percussionismygame

((*it has come to my attention that the first book was removed from Wattpad. I didn't delete it but it's gone. I'm so sorry!*)) Persephone is Tony and Autumn's daughter, aged 17. After Jace had to go back into the army, he died in combat, saving the lives of his troop. Ridden with grief for years, Tony and Autumn tried to move on, unsuccessful for a very long time. Once Autumn fell pregnant, they believed it was Jace giving them a blessing. Naming their child after Jace, Jocelyn Persephone, he would live on forever within her. As Persephone grows older, she has no idea about the true nature of her parents relationship, though she does know that originally Jace had been married to her mom as well as Tony, and at the same time. On the eve of her 16th birthday, Persephone gets into the dark corners of the Internet and discovers BDSM, deciding that she wants to try it out. Her boyfriend, Luke, is all too familiar with the concept, as his parents own a BDSM club in town, and take no interest in hiding their sexuality from their family. One day while receiving a punishment, Autumn walks in on Luke and Persephone, thinking she was the only one home. It's a downhill road as Autumn is quickly reminded of the husband she loved so dearly and lost all too soon. Along with this, Autumn is also concerned on how to deal with Persephone's newfound interest in sex and BDSM, and if she should tell her about her past. Come along on our journey to see Autumn's family get shredded and glued back together over and over again, with a surprise twist no one will be expecting.

New London by JadenSeptum

idk what this is but one day my friend and I randomly decided to take our OCs from different fantasy stories and put them all together in a modern/future/cyberpunk aesthetic world instead. More comedic and satire than the typical serious stuff we usually do. I just decided to put it up here in case anyone enjoyed it Some characters from my book "Ascendant" are recycled for this (Muiredach, Uriah, and Runa) my friend created and wrote for Adeline, Raegan, and Klaus All other characters were created and written by myself Rated M for mature because of language. There's not a lot of sex or anything aside from talking and joking. I think ages 15 to 25 would likely enjoy it the most. It's kind of goofy and fun. LORE AND CONTEXT: A very satire-like cyberpunk style world in 2100s. Superheroes are kind of a known thing though extremely rare and not like how Marvel has one down every street. There are ambiguous "powers and magical forces" people have spoken about more so than in our world but other than that, it's basically our world but the hypothetical and comedic future. New London is a neglected city off the coast of Canada (Canada is known as North Montana now after the US took it). It's huge and very cyberpunk in style... but it's hard to describe so find our Pinterest board about the story by following the external link in the story parts... Very Gotham City like. It was where many people from the UK migrated to after the third world war but the city's politics and system are awful and the crime rate is super high

The Special Outcast #Wattys2015 by MeltingLove

Melinda goes to a school in a far far away place, to a school of magic but everyone else there is as normal as normal. They learn what school kids do. The usual algebra and chemistry but they are trained with powers. The school do not teach them how to control their powers, they teach themselves. Like every school, there is always the popular and the unpopular. In her school, there is two really sexy prefect, 2 pop stars, 2 princesses, famous actors, cool cheerleaders, geeks, and of course, herself. Everyone in her class was special in a way, even the geeks. There was no average kids, only her. To make things worse, the smart students have been chosen. They were chosen to train and protect their world, Xigix. Xigix calls them CPs which stands for Coolest People since they all think they are so cool. She does not have any hate towards them but the chosen people from her class out of the 6 chosen CPs were the 2 popstars and the 2 princesses, not her. Melinda was upset, the only cool thing was that she dated one of the popstars but they decided to be friends after all. She did not mind that but she does realise that she is the big outcast of the class but on her 18 birthday, she realises something really special. She happens to be the Nyphm of the Ocean. She really is one of the 6 Nypmhs of Xigix together with her not-so-cool classmates, Laurel and Jessilyn, Nymph of Elements and Nymph of the Soul. The other nymphs turn out quite stunning too. Together they are a team but will Melinda's classmate ever see who she really is and will she get accepted as someone special to them? Will she still be considered an outcast to her class? Above Star class? --- Inspiration from Winx Club! The princesses and popstars part were made by @ShinyYeo , for more information on the popstars...check my other story "Braving The Past" but has nothing to do with this one. The cover is made by @qu33en_of_m3 This story is my idea and I appreciate if you do not re-post it! Thanks:)

The Lost Kids*CURRENTLY BERING REWRITTEN* by SVn_Wr1t3r

*CURRENTLY BEING REWRITTEN* If someone wants to use the concept then that's fine but know I am rewriting this so please bear with me here... What If: Ben had a twin sister... Mal had a brother... Hades had another daughter... Ben's sister had magic... Ben's sister and her friends acted like villains... Gaston had a son... Mal's siblings suffer from PTSD... All this and more will be answered in this story about the new generation of kids in both Auradon and The Isle Of The Lost. Skylar is the daughter of Belle and Adam Beast. She has always wanted to be a writer and protect people from harm. She and her friends came up with a plan to help the kids of The Isle Of The Lost. She suggests the kids of Maleficent, Hades, Gaston, The Evil Queen, Jafar, Dr. Facilier, Hans, Clayton, one of the sons of Hook, Mother Gothel, Shan Yu, one of the children of Drizella, and Cruella De Vil. When Mal, Evie, Hailey, Hannah, Mason, Gideon, Jay, and Carlos arrive they meet Skylar and her friends. They soon find out that Skylar and her friends are somewhat outcasts but also highly respected. Who are her friends exactly well Wyatt is Snow White's son, Jessica is Aladdin's daughter, Riley is Roger Radcliffe's daughter, Elias is Elsa's son, Olivia is Anna's daughter, Lonnie is Mulan's daughter, Chen is Mulan's son, Ana is Aurora's daughter, Stephanie is Cinderella's daughter, Phoenix is Hercules's son, Cecelia is Peter Pan's daughter, and Tyler is Tarzan's son. They all have been outcasts of Auradon as they are not like the other young royals and are feared among the people of Auradon due to the fact that Skylar has magic greater than anyone in Auradon. What will happen when the two groups meet each other. (Disclaimer I don't own Descendants just my OC's. Oh and Ps: If you don't like anything that this story offers then don't make a fuss, just go) (I'm going to be taking my time to continue this story. Sorry 😥)

But little does she know how close she was going to meet her destiny. Bentley Cole is a soon-to-be alpha of the Black Cole pack. Three years after his fifteenth birthday, he had yet to find his mate.

What happens when fate, or more specifically, Moon Goddess, pairs up these two?

The disciples woke him and said to him, "Teacher, don't you care if we drown?" - Mark 4:38 When Rose told Jack she would never let go, Abigail may have taken it to heart a little too much. Chase Jones. The name alone fills her with dread, and Abigail is pretty positive she'll hold this hatred in her heart until the moment she takes her final breath. Not only was he her personal bully for years; he was also the son of her father's military commander, making her seem like easier prey. But things take an unexpected, one-hundred-and-eighty degree turn when she stumbles upon a secret he tried so desperately to keep hidden. She begins to dream of life in foster care through the eyes of a little boy who wants nothing more than to experience unconditional love. To him, it would be like living in a fairytale. The kind of fairytale Abigail has lived in her entire life. After hearing about a family in need, Abigail finds her heart breaking for whoever they might be. Being the helper that she is, she decides to volunteer herself, but soon discovers just who she signed up to help. She knows this won't be easy. What she has yet to fully grasp is that, just as every storm has a starting point, every person has a story, and every story has at least one storm.

Four Journies by IndecisiveandJipped

CALLIE has no family left. So she's been spending her time in the woods, picking at questionable berries and developing a dark worldview. She has a dream of vengance, to kill the man who murdered her mother. And when a seemingly random trip to the circus brings her together with some strange people, Callie finds out that her dream could become reality, and she just might tip the scales of doom and salvation in the process... ALEX is a pessimist. With good reason. His whole life has consisted of grief, pain and hardship, including occasional glimmers of happiness. But when happiness comes, it quickly fades, leaving an empty void in its place. Alex knows this, and he won't be fooled into thinking otherwise. Or will he? LUNA needs a better job. Being a trapeze artist may hide her from the government, but it's not so fun when the manager is a raving lunatic and there's likely to be a crazed pervert in the crowd. So when the big top gets demolished- literally- Luna sees it as a ticket to freedom (contracts are generally void once a business has been destroyed). What she doesn't see are the doors to her past creaking open, and their contents coming to haunt her. ZACH is normal...ish. As normal as a Gifted kid can be. His brand of normalcy includes a kickass grandma, childhood trauma and your everyday run of the mill dragon, but hey, he's not as insane as the others. Really, Zach is thirsting for adventure. Something that doesn't involve babysitting siblings or feuding with his parents. He should've been careful what he wished for.
