**Featured on Wattpad @ScienceFiction Ambassadors' Picks February 2025, @Ambassadors Speculative Fiction 2024, @ScienceFiction Dystopocalypse 2024, @humor Absurdist & Surreal 2024** On January 13, 2029, NASA revealed a dark dwarf planet heading for a collision with the moon. After a month, the impending collision was broadcasted live worldwide. Meanwhile, thirteen-year-old Daniel accidentally injured his pregnant mother, Ynsia, leading to the tragic loss of the baby. Consumed by guilt, he cared for his grieving mother. A year later, Earth began to crumble. The world quaked, cities floated, and the sun's radiation scorched the planet. Amidst the chaos and despair, Daniel discovered friendship and hope. Gale, Daniel's scientist father, alongside the ISS crew and NASA, realized the dire consequences of the moon's absence. They embarked on a mission to revive the moon and save Earth. With a pencil and some leaves of paper, Daniel started writing letters to the lost babe. He named her after the shattered celestial object--Luna, seeking forgiveness and hoping for a chance to reunite his broken family.

It's been seven months, seven months of no human contact, scavenging resources from nearby towns that are slowly crumbling to dust. The United Rebel Front led a planetary scale rebellion among many countries and were against the UN itself. That lead to a planetary war called the 'Insurrection War'. A biological weapon was created and was used on the front lines to turn soldiers into monsters, but they couldn't keep control of the monsters....and that led to a zombie outbreak. Now I live alone in the Forest away from the zombies and other humans. I've been turning insane or is it that's what I'm thinking that I am turning insane but anyways, I am alone...that's what I thought anyways. (Idea & Inspiration of this zombie apocalyptic story goes to @CrystalScherer) -The Virus Within [Similar Hierachy] (And the idea came partly from resident Evil) {Ranked #13 for 'Main' at 10th of July 2018}

In a world where nothing comes for free, the only thing that can't be bought is a real, human connection, and the only thing of true worth is an honest word. But when forced to make a choice between doing the wrong thing for the right reason, and doing the right thing but forsaking those you love, can there ever be a right decision? In the city of Eos, the lines between black and white, right and wrong, love and hate, all blur together like the bright neon lights that bask the dark streets in their mesmerizing glow. And where black and white meet, a world in monochrome is born. Theo has long since abandoned his career as a cybercriminal, and an important promise made in the past keeps him tied to the life of a law-abiding citizen. But when his talents catch the attention of the enigmatic hacker group 'Electric Eye' and their charismatic leader Nova, he is forced to question his own sense of right and wrong, the morality of his actions and the ties that bind him. ____ This story will tell the tale of Nova, a character from "Against the Tide": https://www.wattpad.com/myworks/143490393-against-the-tide-a-new-elysium-story (reading this first is recommended to understand the context) Both stories are spin-offs to @Red_Leasia 's "New Elysium" https://www.wattpad.com/story/106699395-new-elysium (not absolutely necessary to understand this story, but recommended)

A possible future in less than 500 words, if plastic wins. This was my entry for the WattPad/National Geographic #PlanetOrPlastic competition back in late 2018. It reached their Top 10 Submissions which, given that there appeared to be well over 5000 entries, was a very pleasant surprise! The competition itself had a limit of 500 words so, for those who keep asking if I intend continuing the story, the answer (for now!) is no - unless I can find a very good reason for adding any more. Many thanks to everyone reading and voting on this story and getting it to number 1 in the #sciencefiction category in May/June 2020! I did try to thank the voters individually on their pages but Wattpad have a daily limit on the number of times I'm allowed to do that and there are now too many of you (not that I'm complaining)! Here's the top 10 submissions page: https://www.wattpad.com/list/738243473-planetorplastic-top-10-submissions If you want to read the story in Polish please head over to https://www.wattpad.com/story/236405960-m%C4%85dro%C5%9B%C4%87-staro%C5%BCytnych-t%C5%82umaczenie-pl where @juliatlumaczy has done a fine job - thank you, Julia! @juliatlumaczy has now sent me a version of the cover she used for her Polish translation - thanks again, Julia! @alex_sokolova has also translated the story into Russian as well.

On the run from the Earth government and military forces, wanted former terrorist Maddy Hawthorn seeks a new life on Mars. When she discovers plans for another terrorist attack, her only hope to prevent a global catastrophe is to seek the help of other insurgents. But everyone wants her dead, including the people she is trying to save. With the help of a runaway Elite teenager and a band of renegade slaves, Maddy fights to save the very government system she despises. Nothing lasts forever. Although it alludes to events in the previous Maddy Hawthorn book, "Days of Iron", this is a separate story and is designed to be read and understood independently.
