Shadow at the Water's edge.
Lore has built up over the ages about creatures that live in the ocean, creatures of startling beauty, with the upper body of women, and the tails of fish. But what if these creatures were different from what we thought they were? What would happen when one of them needs help? Seeking out the aid of a teenage boy, who is more involved in their world than he knows. When Alex wakes up in the hospital, ranting about a girl and water, he is assured that his hallucinations were a side effect to almost drowning, and he was unconscious for nearly two days. He is released from the hospital, and life seems like it should return to normal...but he's still haunted by his "hallucinations" He still knows what he saw was real. He saw a shadow at the water's edge.Complete
Mystery At 4,000 Fathoms
I've never believed in fairytales, superstitions or fears of fantasy worlds. It's the year 1871, and yet people still believe in such idiotic stories. My job as a stoker on this ship is just so I can get some money to live on, but when the ship goes down and I'm rescued in a submarine, I'm forced to help an ambitious Jenny Playfair, a woman obsessed with finding the lost city of Atlantis. She's crazy, of course, or at least I believe she is, until she shows me evidence that such a city just might exist. As we dive farther into the deep in a desperate attempt to find something, and someone, I come to wonder: If Atlantis is real, what are we to expect? Is there more to this than we know? And if the person with me being completely true about her intentions on finding this city? It's an adventure I didn't sign up for, but quickly find myself in. But the more I find and learn about the ocean around me, the more I realize fairytales just might be true after all. Disclaimer: I do not own Zombies, Run! or any of the characters in it. This is my Stoker Five's version of Mystery at 4,000 Fathoms in the New Adventure section of the app.Complete

"You're a what.?" He asked in disbelief. "I'm a mermaid. That's why I brought you here. To the place where I became one." I explained. "Avery, I don't believe you."

Sinking Into You
She was the golden girl who disappeared. He was the boy who never stopped watching her shine. Now they're working under the same roof-and the waves are getting harder to ignore. Adrianna "Addie" Sinclair used to be unbeatable-an Olympic-bound swimmer with medals, fame, and the pressure of a nation on her shoulders. But one panic attack during a high-stakes race shattered everything. Years later, she's swapped podiums for fins, performing as a professional mermaid at Aqua Haven, where she hides behind sequins, smiles, and carefully controlled distance. Enter Leo Hayes: marine vet, soft-hearted dork, and the guy who used to watch Addie swim like she ruled the ocean. When a surprise blind date throws them together, sparks fly-but so do Addie's defenses. She doesn't do vulnerability. And she definitely doesn't do second chances. But fate's not finished. When Leo starts working at Aqua Haven, their lives collide all over again. And this time, Leo isn't content to watch from the sidelines. He wants to know the real her-the girl behind the glitter, the grief, the guarded sarcasm. And Addie? She's starting to want to be seen. As walls crack and chemistry builds, Addie has to decide: can she risk her heart again? Or will she keep swimming for safety-before love pulls her under? Started: February 9, 2024 Status: Ongoing
Hooked • Harry Hook ✔
"Well, what do we have 'ere?" A hoarse voice stated above me, making my eyes glaze upward in the direction of the culprit, only to freeze at the icy, crystallized irises of the owner. There, above me, was the man I saved, looking insanely at me with crazed eyes and a mocking tone. His hair was stuck on his forehead and the smudged eyeliner created a trace of dark lining on his face, making him look hauntingly. The man gazed at my form in amazement and wonder before they captured mine again, sending an icy cold sensation coursing through my vein, making me shiver. He was frightening and breathtaking at the same time. "A mermaid, aye?" he questioned as his gaze trailed down the length of my body. Grabbing my arms with one hand, he caressed my face gently, his thumb grazing my parted lips before they went below my hair twirling a single piece. I struggled from underneath him when he let the hair graze my breast underneath my blackened hair. Grinning at me madly, my eyes narrowed distastefully as his hand touched my crimson scales, stroking the tail almost lovingly. "Is this how you repay your saviour, pirate?"Complete
