Meet Kyla Morgan, an ordinary 16-year-old girl who has always loved the ocean.
"Ordinary", yeah okay! That's what she thought just 24 hours ago when everything made sense.
Her beach house had always been a place of comfort and familiarity. Now, it was full of mystery and unanswered questions.
It was always more than just a "love" for the ocean. It gave her power and strength in times of need and calmed her when she was nervous or stressed.
She's never figured out why. She's always had this feeling in her gut, like a magnetic attraction to the water. Something that she cannot control.
She's just a beautiful girl with a beautiful name and an amazingly gorgeous ability.

Yet, the ripples of a changing world beyond have begun to seep in, bleaching color and darkening minds--but not Dea Rhodoreef's mind. Who said life's easy for a teen about to graduate high school? Even more so when one is a pastel goth gamer mermaid trying to scrape by in a mobile home with a grumpy grandmother who's always complaining about the "human infestation". Maybe the troubled city-state will embrace a new dawn when merpeople and humans coexist--a future that Dea is determined to work hard for. Noble causes aside, just getting to see a notorious human is number one on her bucket list. Now, as if school, a part-time job and building a political career aren't enough, a chonky sea cow has been following her for days. It's time to return him to the wild--not like she'd swim into a human.

The dark waters| ✓
I won't survive. I'm sure of it. Strong wind ruffles through my clothes and hardly allows my eyes to remain open. I'm surprised that I'm still standing on the rock and haven't been tossed into the whirlwind. Huge waves crash down upon the rocks making deafening sounds. I open my eyes wide enough to see the next wave coming. As it comes towards the rock, it reaches the height of a three-storey building and seems to loom over me for some time, like a monster looking at its prey with hungry eyes, before finally crashing down towards me like a waterfall. While it comes down one single thought comes in my mind. This is how I die. Then the waters devour me. ___________________________________________ What's the worst crime you could ever commit?

Male 'Namielle' Reader/OC x Ruby Gillman Teenage Kraken (Renamed) [Rewritten]
Inspired by 'The Adventures of Captain Tsunami' written by @Fearmaster101 and 'Ruby Gillman x Male Reader' written by @Writer-net. The ocean is a vast, mysterious place. With only five percent of it explored, there have been many tales made up of mysterious creatures inhabiting the vast majority of the sea. You've already heard of some, like the majestic mermaids and the evil kraken that rule the sea, who are at each other's throats at the same time, eventually leading to an all-out war. But did you know that a third party is involved? That being the Namielles. After an intense war that almost destroyed their home, Y/N Elder's father sent him to the surface to hide his presence. After many years of living there, he meets a certain teenage kraken and mermaid who stick by him no matter what. Disclaimer: I do not own Ruby Gillman Teenage Kraken, the Monster Hunter franchise, or any of the elements that they have and their characters. Monster Hunter belongs to someone else.
