Isla Sterling always felt like she wasn't normal. Ever since she was a kid, she'd always see things, things no one else seemed to see or bother about. She'd always blocked it off, brushed it off as a trick of the light or fatigue. She had to. Otherwise, she'd start to think she was going insane. It made her feel like she wasn't human.
But one day, in the park, when she sees a face she swears she knows from somewhere, she can't ignore it or the curiosity it brings.
Little did Isla know, chasing after familiar faces would lead her down a path she never thought possible.
Because yeah, Isla isn't normal.
And she most definitely isn't human.

Zombie girl
I'm exactly as the title says. I'm part zombie and part girl. My birth parents are humans, and Seabrook is all about cheer. My biological sister will be a Freshman just like me in high school and cheer is in her blood. Would've been in mine too had I grown up on that side. But, no even though my sister has silver hair, my parents said they'd cover hers her up, but me with my purple natural hair, not even Zombie green.... They said purple would be too hard to hide. I was only 8 years old, never craved brains, have bright blue eyes, but bright purple hair. I guess that's the part that made me a zombie. The Government people took me away by my parents orders, then brainwashed my twin sister, and the rest of my family to forget about me. Unfortunately they didn't brainwash me. Boy am I lucky?! But, it's not all bad news my zombie foster family is nice, my brother wants to go out for football, he's my best friend, and I've got an adorable little sister who is my most prized possession. Me, I wanna be in theatre. But, I know we'll never be accepted, and I'm living proof. Not my charactersComplete
