"It's been two years since the tragic shipwreck in 2022 that supposedly killed 200 high school freshmen and the 10 teachers on board. Friends, families, and mourners gathered at the high school to honor them." 

"But Monica, you said supposedly," Bill noticed. "Does that mean there is a chance that they're alive?"
                                                                              
Monica's face went grim and despite being on TV, she lowered her eyes. Oh, why did she sign up for this story? "Researches have looked into the ship's last known location and say there is a chance there was a mystery island nearby that could have sheltered the kids but if that is the case, it is still unlikely they survived for more than a week."                                                                            *                                                                                           "Okay." Bill said, his voice weak. He forced himself to look into the camera despite the threatening tears. He looked at the hidden TV and at his next line but he couldn't bring himself to say it. Every time he spoke, the images of his Owen flashed in his mind and he knew he'd be fired for crying on TV. It's the news not reality TV, the manager would say. But he didn't care. He ignored the line and let a single tear fall.

[WATTYS 2022 SHORTLIST] "Hello again, Pizza Boy?" I glanced up at him with a smile. The blood was rushing out my head but it didn't bother me. "Are you back to make another attempt on my life?" "Shut up," he fumbled, absolutely petrified. "I-I hate you!" I laughed as we were both red in the face; one more sticky then the other, "Aww, I hate you too." My hands held my non-beating chest. "It's mutual trust me. But I guess you really want your Xbox back huh?" -- 17 year-old Evelyn Gates has a quiet yet witty personality. She usually stays in the background and is mediocre at literally everything... just ask anyone. She enjoys the smell of pizza and watching Guy Fieri stuff his face with food in her free time. Oh, and there's one more thing... she's immortal. That's right, Evelyn can't die, and she doesn't know why. Her body just magically puts itself back together again after tragic incidents. She calls it a curse, but the one other person who knows about it calls it a miracle. It's not until her pizza order turns deadly and her mom's boyfriend changes his outlook on life, when Evelyn finds out that there might be some more people involved with her immortality; people who are puppeteering her life and will stop at nothing but to destroy her. - Featured on: @TeenFiction 'FunnyBones' reading list: October 6th, 2021 @StoriesUndiscovered 'The Power of Laughter' reading list: June 1st -30th, 2021 -- Since mock websites are becoming more common, unfortunately, I have to give the disclaimer that this story is only being published on Wattpad.
