Those who expect an escape from reality, here my warning-
Do not accept the letter, whatever you do, DO NOT COME. My dear guests, my time on this ship is running out. She is coming. They are coming. If you find this I am most likely dead. I'm hoping to send this to you befo-
The rest of the letter seems to be ripped, the ink running ever so slightly. The only piece of writing intact is...
Captain Nessa should not be trusted.

The Sirens Calling
I'm writing a book about sirens and merpeople (yes, different things) and want opinions as I go along with the story and some support so I can continue writing! Sophia is part of the crew on the Major after hearing rumours the captain decided she has to die But as she was drowning she found a new power within her an turns into a siren Follow Sophia and her, later found, best friend Lucy on their adventures while discovering more and more of Sophia's powers. And I smell a romance between the friends blossoming And I have already written their get together scene so that is a promise I intend to keep ;) It's gonna be rated Mature when I post that scene, but until then it's off And that scene doesn't really hold any plot so you can skip it (I'll put a warning before and tell you when it's over though)

The Dark Witch: The Nox Haven Series
I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began. I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them. That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world. ... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all. ---------------------------------------------------------- Highest Rank: #2 in Paranormal 1st Place winner of The Night Shift's Killer Competition 4/10/16 Illustration by: Stephanie Pitino (www.ClairObscur.fr) (1st book in series)Complete

Send all the fighters, witches and rulers you want, we'll kill them all just like we killed Myra. I'm only leaving you alive because you're Knight in shining armor will kill us all if you go missing.", she said in a serious and monotone voice as she walked back into the ocean, turning her back to me, while the sirens began to swim away. As she walked away, thoughts flooded my mind. I couldn't leave her unscratched, she couldn't walk away from me, The Queen of Vampires with no bruises or cuts on her. I had one chance to do this.Complete
Escape the Night
Hey Julia, I'm sorry you have to find out this way, I have found out what happened to Angel, and it's pretty hard to explain. She died in the events of her experience in the castle she went to, along with seven others who got sucked into the horrors of that place. She died to save others from a similar fate and helped destroy the evil lurking in that castle. Luckily, I managed to find a new letter, telling me to board a ship that only exists in post World War II. It appears to have a logo similar to the one on the letter Angel received. So this may cost my life, but I'm going to board that ship, wearing an aviator outfit from that time frame, you may never see me again. Your bestie, Rose. IT'S FINISHED!Complete
