Misterio
Alexis : a name normal, not too plain, but not heard too often. It described her perfectly. She had her own group of friends, and though she wasn’t popular she wasn’t really an outsider either. Everything about Alexis was like that, in the middle of two extremes. That is except for one incident in her past. When she was ten Alexis witnessed the murder of her mother, which seemed to be over something as silly as a necklace. However, it wasn’t silly at all. It takes a while for Alexis to try to erase what she saw. But once she begins to convince herself that it’s just going to go away, it does the opposite. Alexis is thrown back into her ten-year-old self, and has too many questions and not enough answers. What is the real story behind the teardrop necklace? And why does Peter Crow want it so badly? While Alexis is on the run from the evil man, she has everything to lose, and barely anything to gain.

Carmen is screwed up. She's been in and out of juvie all her life and seriously there's no place she'd rather be. Until she gets released from juvie unexpectedly, given a probation officer, and forced to live with a normal family and go to a normal school. Carmen doesn't even know the definition of normal. Much less family, or school. Separated from the only system she's known and has stayed constant all her life, she finds it hard to adjust to the world outside the concrete building. The structure and rules aren't the same. In juvie, rules were like opinions, people ignored them. But in the real world, supposedly it wasn't socially acceptable to steal cash, or graffiti the front of the school building. Enter the Harrisons, the family who's taking care of her. The matriarch of the family hates her criminal record. Sammy, the seven-year-old, is too clingy, too innocent, and too naive to understand anything. Then there's Jay, the guy she's forced to share a room with. A self-righteous son of a bitch, Jay doesn't understand Carmen and doesn't understand her self destructive way of thinking. Though he's not bothered by her, he's fascinated with her. The family represents the structure and rules that Carmen doesn't, nor wants to, understand. But as Carmin starts to push back at the structure and rules suddenly rushed into her life, it starts to change. Her whole way of living is thrown off balance, what she deems normal isn't. And through a series of events, she starts to spiral out of control, and she doesn't know if someone can pull her up from that. Carmen was given a second chance, but is it a good chance, or is it just another recipe for getting thrown right back to square one, like she always is? Because second chances don't usually get handed out. And she's about to learn what it means to get a second chance. ____
