Rosetta Island, a beautiful home to a large district of people. A famous legend revolves around how the Island got its name. The Rosetta Stone wielded the power to translate written languages into a language the bearer can understand. Rosetta Island was found to have similar properties and the Island's first Chief found he could speak to the creatures living in water and on land as long as he was near the Island.
Flynn, a young Mer-Man. Flynn is a rebel and goes against his culture in many ways. From exploring caves to even going above the waves, risking being seen. Atlantis, under the sea, is home to many a Mer-folk and is kept hidden, safe from Humans who once, long ago, wanted to destroy everything they held dear. In the modern world, however, Flynn is unconvinced that the two-legged creatures roaming above still have wants to destroy everything.
Sefina's family had been there ever since the first Chief. After the passing of Chief Peyak many years ago, the people had long since forgotten about the Mer-folk and stopped searching for them. There were some who didn't give up, but over time their adventures were all in vain. Many generations later, a new chief now chosen, reassures them that Mer-folk does not exist and that their ancestors were all fools who died a watery grave for some made-up fairy tale. Sefina has faith that Mer-folk are still out there and that the reason why they've never seen them is that they're just shy.
Can Flynn convince his people that Humans don't seek the blood of Mer-People?
Can Sefina find the long-lost Atlantis and prove to her people that Mer-Folk still exist?
Will the future of Rosetta Island hold both Humans and Mer-folk living in peace and harmony.
And will Sefina and Flynn's unexpected meeting cause sparks of love and either war between Humans and Mer-folk, or a union of two worlds that were once divided.
(Inspired by the song "Faded" by Alan Walker)

Monster Beneath The Surface (Solangelo AU)
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.)Complete

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.)
