Now a Wattpad Exclusive Paid Story
There's one rule shared between the island's tribes: don't touch the water. When Cressa-la breaks this law, her world, and body, changes. Sure, change is normal... but when has growing scales been normal? Every human baby is killed beneath the waves--with one exception: the one hundred thousandth is spared. Among the spared, there are those chosen by the moon or sea, an ancient magic sweeping over them. They are called the One-Hundreds. When one of these gifted children rises, the darkness chases after her and hunts her down, wanting her for his own selfish desires while another light who's given up on love is drawn to her because of his past. Unless Cressa-la can bring the darkness to his knees and fight the war raging inside of her, the world is doomed. |

One choice could change everything.
Cressa-la went into the water of her own volition to save the dolphin... but what if she stayed ashore? A small change in a series of big events may seem insignificant, but it's the tiny differences that could change the outcome of specific things, such as, say, the end of the world. Can Cressa-la save it this time, not knowing about what lies beneath the water's surface, not knowing of the evil force on her tail, or will the earth crumble at the hands of darkness, everything saturated in green illumination? Perhaps. |

When Tamir's best friend steals his girl and drops him into the sharp, rocky death waiting below, Tamir's sure this is where his story ends--or has it just begun?

Dametria had to choose between Tamir and Damian. So she did.
A One-Hundred Short Story |
Sometimes the villain of the story isn't really evil - his motives are just wrong.
Damian isn't in the right... state of mind to seek revenge on a certain One with powers stronger than him. But, perhaps, if he had help from, let's say, a certain girlfriend, maybe he could return to his former self. Or maybe he'll just dig himself a grave. Dametria and Jackie have wandered off, not sure of what exactly went down between Damian and Cressa-la. And when Damian wordlessly begins to lead them to what he wants, the girls uncover more about themselves than Damian's ever seen. Of course, this doesn't phase who he is and what he wants, but, perhaps... perhaps some day it might. Or so Dametria hopes. |

All Ones are evil.
Cressa-la thought she was an exception, but as a mysterious fog settles onto the island, taking everyone’s powers but hers, she realizes the darkness that hunted her four years ago has rooted itself deep inside her. Until she can learn to control it or get rid of it, she isn’t allowed to set foot back onto the island. With her body breaking down at a molecular level and a new enemy on the horizon, can she make it back to her island to save it—before she drops dead? |
Sometimes betting your life is worth it. And for her, it will always be worth it.
(A One-Hundred Novella) |
|
Cressa-la, now separated from her missing body, can feel the darkness penetrating deeper into her subconscious as exhaustion weights her down. If she falls asleep, she'll succumb to death, but if she continues to fight against evil, fatigue will crush her into powder.
Just like the moon, Cressa-la has a dark side too--a side she's going to have to face if she wants to protect everyone she loves. Is she strong enough to take on the fight behind the veil with her own two hands, or will her light forever disappear from the face of the earth |
