Hi, my name is Faust and I am half human half gargoyle. I think I am almost 300 years old, and this is the story of how I was bitten by a vampire and warewolf, almost cursed by a witch, attacked by an angel and demon, played cards with a cheating socerer and his snake-of-a-servant, and tracked down by a hunter, all in the very same night, and gets stuck with them as friends.
This is my first story (I have to start somewhere), please tell me if I make a mistake, or you dont like it, or its to close to another story. I make 2 stories, but right now I'm just going to start on this one and see where this leads me. Reccomendations are great! Also another note, I was just looking for a place to have the story, so no I have never been to Astoria, Oregon but I imagine it being quite chilly in Autumn up in the north. I might add some unexspected characters, such as Mermaids, and more shape shifters! I truly am making this up as I go so I dont even know what is going to happen. Enough of my babbling, read on to see descriptions of the main characters! ( I don't plan on a whole bunch of people to read this, but thank you so much if you do, hope you enjoy!)
Ella is falling apart trying to live a "perfect" high school life. Then she meets Ren, who can see past her scars. Suddenly perfection isn't her only option.
*****
Ella Volkov is a gifted music student, but she's depressed and starting to crack under the pressure of high school. Her overbearing father won't even let her choose what instrument she plays. Then she finds herself alone at a party with Ren, her best friend's crush. She'd always thought he was rude, but after that night he's all Ella can think about. Now she's trapped. If Ella dates Ren, it will ruin her friendship with Jenny. But if she stays true to Jenny, she's losing the one person who can see past her scars. It's up to Ella to decide if she will forge her own path, or stay in the "perfect" box designed for her...
