The greatest tragedy the world has ever known turned out to be the ultimate catalyst for change. In the wake of World War III, which decimated most of the world's population, the remaining survivors vowed to not continue to repeat the same mistakes of the past. Fortunately, they had something previous generations did not have - advanced technology. The year is 2117 and this once shattered civilization has become prosperous again. Innovative forms of technology have enabled them to abandon the old model and re-engineer a better way of living for all. Brain implants and genetic modifications have made an entire population educated, healthy, and kind. Despite the benefits of this technology, it has created some unforeseen side effects that threaten humankind's existence. When technology proves to be inept at solving the world's problem, a new hope emerges in the unlikeliest form - a young orphan girl. *** Cyberpunk, dystopian, technology, future, futurism, scifi, heroine, prodigy...

*WARNING: Written in 2008, some content may be offensive* Stasee is your typical shy, quiet teenage girl until the night her brother's best friend Damen Hurtz decides to finally acknowledge her existence. In a desperate attempt to gain his acceptance she allows him to take the one thing every girl values most...her virginity. After that night, Damen constantly begins accepting her while they're alone and then rejecting her in front of his peers. Stasee's frustration and confusion continues to grow, as do her feeling toward the man who continues to break her heart. He claims that he cares for her, but will his need for his peer's acceptance prevent him from ever treating Stasee the way he should? And if he finally realizes the stupidity of popularity over love, will Stasee still be waiting for him?

The prophecy : There lies two weapons in a cave, one of magic and one of strength. Created to restore the lost balance of the nations; they were made by a human, an elf, and a demon who still remembered the lost peace. Meant to be wielded by two heroes, with the same day of birth, whose fates are to be rejected by the lands they were born to save. With these weapons peace will return to the nations. This is the story of Ella and Roxas. An elf and a demon. Born on the same day and each born with the same purpose, to save Estry, thier home. Each with thier own reason they set out to defeat the demon king only to run into each other. They could be not be any more different in character but they have no choice in the matter. Each have one of the two legendary weapons and whether they like it or not thier mission is the same. Kill the Demon Lord.
