"Now my children, I know I told you all you can go anywhere the current goes, but I felt it was important to let you know. You must never go to the surface of the ocean, you must never go near human made objects, and if a human were to see you, run, hide, for if they catch you, they will kill you."
Okeanos has always lived by this rule, and in her world humans were something to fear, and the ocean is the only safe place.
But as a game with her siblings goes wrong, and she becomes entangled in a hidden war, she must decide if she should run away, following the rules she has obeyed her whole life. Or should she stay, fighting with her newly discovered friends, who aren't the types humans she's been taught to fear, or not even humans at all.

This is a teenage mutant ninja turtle fan-fiction. It includes canon shipping, possible violence, swearing, and of course, the main theme and inspiration for this story, mer-people! The mer-people design are inspired from the television series, 'Siren'.
Please be aware that this is my first story, in like, years, so I would really appreciate if you all would criticise my work, and don't feel bad to point out my mistakes, it will help me improve in the future!
With that out of the way, I hope you enjoy my story!

The Sunken City
A merman living in a half-sunken Venice must decide between revealing himself to the oppressive humans to pursue the man he wants or repressing his desires to save everyone that matters to him, except himself, in The Sunken City. There isn't even a word for what Caydo is. At seventeen, he only knows that he is different. If Caydo manages to restore the magic that allowed his kind to breathe underwater, they could live free of the humans, but he would be trapped with the merpeople, who will never accept his sexuality. Attracted to a devious human from the surface, Caydo must navigate a new world of card games and vices, which could bring more trouble, instead of the romance and the refuge he craves. At fifteen, Caydo's younger sister, Sarzana, must choose either to stay a mermaid or to become a human, as it is illegal to bend after she turns sixteen. Unbeknownst to her family and friends, she has already chosen a human life designing buildings, which goes against the merpeople's goddess. The surface might not be welcoming to a mermaid, but the humans have the answer to what happened to her father in the attacks ten years ago. Told from multiple perspectives, the world of the merpeople and the ruins of Venice come to life in this engaging story of fearlessness and hope in the face of adversity.

The Silence -Percy Jackson Fanfiction-
Shall be moved, and then deleted. More about dat stuff in the last chapter and at the end of my bio. :D The Silence -Percy Jackson Fanfiction- The Seas were supposed to be place of tranquility and peace. With the currents and the motions, it was hard for someone to feel otherwise. The people of the sea, more commonly known as Mer-People, were a peaceful clan. King Poseidon was a kind man, ruling over all with his heir and son, Perseus. He kept order. He kept peace. That was until a single Mer-Person went astray. She dreamed too big. She was too ambitious. She had no mercy. She created a new kind of Mer-People. A new race. A contorted, twisted species. An experimental horror. A mistake. This species should have never been created. They were death, destruction and remorse. They were The Silence. It was up to Prince Perseus to destroy them. Word count: 14,218 (Cover made by Percy_BlackAdder, thanks biatch! Fruv ya! Really, though, I love the cover.) (There will be many mentions of different types of sea creatures, and I want you to know these are all real. Feel free to look them up. Though I will be altering their names slightly in some cases, but I will give you the actual title of the fish at the ending of the paragraph. You are ready, my children.) (THIS IS NOT A ROMANCE. I KNOW ALMOST NO ONE WILL LIKE WHAT I'M DOING BUT JUST SHUSH. NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN. MY SHIPPER HEART BETRAYED ME. I NEEDED TO FILL A BIT OF SPACE, AS WELL. CHILL. CALM THE FUCK DOWN.)
