Cardinal

Cassandra Ito-Ivanov lived with her single mother. And then she died. Cassandra Ito-Ivanov had never met her father. And now, with no one else to watch her, she must go all the way to the other side of the country and live with him. She ends up in Cardinal. A tiny, middle-of-nowhere town that has no such thing as Burger King. Her father is missing ninety percent of the time (big shocker), his so-called housekeeper won't stop breathing down her neck, and again, there is no such thing as Burger King. It could be worse, she could be in foster care. Cass is odd, but Cardinal is odder. People go missing on a daily basis, the forest is forever, and there is no such thing as Burger King. They fear the night, for it holds secrets.

Note: This story contains themes of death and trauma. Some parts get a little gorey, and I will make sure to acknowledge that at the the start of chapters.

2nd note: While it deals with some strong topics, this story is also VERY UNSERIOUS. Think of it as a horror-comedy. If you're into that, then read it! If not, then don't.
