Tempest was a happy, healthy teenage girl until a tragic accident unleashes her worst nightmare from the depths of her own mind. 

She is cursed with depression, a disease that fills her with utter hopelessness that spills over, locking her in an invisible box of despair. 

She is terrified by the horrific thoughts that bubble to the surface without mercy of death and darkness. 

She escapes to a remote cabin nestled between the bluffs along the ocean shore as she battles for her life from one thing she never thought she would fight: herself.

Please be advised: This story talks about extensively about depression and may contain triggering content. Please proceed with caution and message me if you have any questions.

The Night We Came to Be

15 parts Complete

Your mind can adapt to such bizarre circumstances. It is a tool capable of extraordinary things, and in turn, it is an inevitable vulnerability in every person's system that can easily be provoked. A mind that can easily be conquered, the truest victim of pain. Despite this, it will continue to provide. It will sustain and ease. Always. For Darryl, it had been a struggle, separating the cruelty of life from his temple, his haven, his sanity. The burdens kept piling on and on, it felt as if there's no one else to turn to. An oblivious teen, an oblivious mind. He is, without a doubt, as desperate for change as they come. Though the road towards wisdom seems treacherous, his heart and mind shall unite, and together they shall guide Darryl to a pleasurable, if not enlightening, path. And once they do, not only will Darryl feel the significant change in his nightly life, he won't even know whether or not it had already started. *A Wattys Shorts entry*
