Aquata Aldwyn lives with her parents and siblings in a nice house by the shore. Until the age of sixteen, there hadn't been much trouble in her life, but the week leading up to her birthday had been full of peculiar events. The hypnotic music coming from the shore drove her mad, only increasing her family's worry. Hyperion Heights welcomes a new transfer student from Europe. The boy looks like he knows Aquata, but he steers clear of her, as if she were some all powerful evil tyrant. What's up with that? After returning from a strange day at school, a screeching voice shatters Aquata's mind and she collapses. Her parents find her unconscious, muttering something about "The Land of Oceana." Clear and beautiful as it may be, danger lurks beneath the waves...

Unexpected (Editing)
-- COMPLETED AND EDITING -- Nicole Shipton c. 2013 Teenage Michaela was a simple girl with an everyday life living in sunny California, excited about her sixteenth birthday party; a chance to get away from her strict parents for just a few hours. The quick surf Michaela and her sister Jess went on before the guests were due to arrive was meant to relax her, but to say it did the opposite would be an understatement. That surf turned Michaela's life around. Within a week, she had sprouted a tail, along with her sister. Michaela's parents weren't much help, leaving her and Jess to sort through the mess alone. When their mother and father finally took them to their home in the ocean, the two girls were kidnapped. One of the last remaining sea witches, a malicious woman named Krella, brought Michaela, Jess, and two other merpeople to the small town of Rocksworth. There, they were forced to do unmentionable and traumatizing things. Michaela doesn't know if she'll ever return to the coral castle she so briefly saw her parents call home, and if she does, what kind of life might that be?
