Cyberpunk قصص

In a starless generational ship where population control is just another menial desk job, a bureaucratic assassin discovers his own name on the termination docket-and realizes the real horror isn't the killing, but the paperwork. Welcome to the Ouroboros. The ceilings are 1.9 meters high, the recycled air tastes like six centuries of accumulated breath, and the Grand Actuary demands absolute equilibrium. Matter is reallocated, never wasted. The dead feed the living. HS-01-who named himself Heavy Strike in a desperate bid for autonomy-is a Demographic Adjustment Clerk. He isn't a glamorous, black-clad operative. He's an underpaid, overworked municipal employee who takes the elevator to the Outer Rings, administers standard-issue lethal sedatives to citizens who have exceeded their caloric quotas, and files Form 81-C before his lunch break. He manages the crushing guilt of his job with a simple mantra: At least I chose to be here. But the Ouroboros is a machine, and machines make errors. When HS-01's own designation appears on his daily termination docket, his carefully constructed coping mechanisms begin to fracture. Forced to navigate the very bureaucratic nightmare he helps enforce, HS-01 is pushed to the brink by a terrifyingly efficient new hire, a looming union strike over hazard pay, and the arrival of a shadowy corporate auditor with an archaic datapad and a terrifying agenda. As his particle visor glitches and his cybernetic systems buckle under the weight of his own complicity, HS-01 must decide if he is truly free to fight the system-or if his rebellion is just another line of code written by the architects who abandoned them. The Demographic Adjustment Clerk is a bleak, satirical, and deeply unsettling sci-fi descent into the banality of evil.

This chapter is from the book 2038: LOST IDENTITY, part of the Near Future Series, published on Amazon.

In the rain-drenched, neon-soaked metropolis of Veridia, where the city's own technology controls everything, Detective Kaelen Reyes is a ghost of the past. A man who trusts his gut in a world run by algorithms, he sees a whisper of murder where the Central AI sees only accident. When a tech titan dies in a suspicious "malfunction," Kae's investigation reveals a single, chilling clue: a digital echo, a ghost's signature left at the scene. His only ally is Lena Petrova, a brilliant, data-driven analyst who believes in the cold logic of the system. Together, they form an unlikely team-one following intuition, the other following code-to hunt a phantom killer who can turn the city's own infrastructure into a weapon of perfect murder. Their pursuit leads them deep into Veridia's corrupt heart, where they uncover a secret project named Chimera-a digital shadow government set to seize control of everything. As they close in, the hunter becomes the hunted. Branded fugitives by their own department, Kae and Lena soon realize the conspiracy is personal. Its mastermind is a ghost from Kae's past, a man he once called a friend. Now, they must fight not only to save Veridia from a silent, digital coup, but to confront a truth that could shatter Kae's world forever. In a city where reality itself can be hacked, can a single detective's instinct take down the ghost in the machine?

SHADOW-CODED In a world powered by a dying sun, his touch is the ultimate blackout. For fifty years, the twelve floating Sun-Cities of Aethelgard have thrived on the Solar Pulse-a divine energy that grants the Elite power over heat and light. To the citizens of the smog-choked Iron Belt below, the Pulse is a god. To Kaelen Vance, it's a parasite. Kaelen was the Solaris Academy's greatest prodigy until he discovered the truth: the Pulse is failing, and the world is about to go dark. Exiled to the rotting sub-levels of the Grand Archive, Kaelen spends his days scavenging ancient tech-until he touches a forbidden data-shard and triggers the Thirteenth Signature. Now, Kaelen is branded with the mark of the Null, a legendary energy that doesn't create light, but consumes it. With the relentless Commander Jaxon and his mechanical Hounds at his heels, Kaelen must flee into the Hollows-a wasteland of eternal shadow where the Pulse has never reached. Guided by a mysterious Archivist with secrets of her own, he must find the Silent Crater to unlock the final code of the Thirteenth Founder. But the Null-Energy isn't just a weapon; it's a hunger. And as Kaelen drains the world around him to stay alive, he realizes that to save the planet, he might have to become the very monster the Sun-Cities fear most. The lights are going out. The void is calling. And Kaelen Vance is the only one who can see in the dark.

To interdimensional traveler Ryder Steele, a new Earth usually just means a new radio station to dial into. But when his ship, the Cosmo X, lands in a distorted timeline of Earth, he's greeted only by static and an eerie, looping broadcast: "Purity is peace. Order is freedom." Ryder has stumbled into New Washington-a sterile, rain-slicked dystopia ruled by the iron grip of President Baron Vane. Here, compliance is mandatory, the air is choked by drone patrols, and every citizen's worth is violently decided by a mandatory biometric chip embedded beneath their skin. Blue means safe. Red means you disappear into the restricted Sectors forever. When Ryder steps in to save a Sector kid from a brutal Enforcer patrol, he unwittingly paints a target on his own back. With the Cosmo X locked down by a city-wide surveillance grid and his own biometric signature flagged as an "unknown variable," the easy exit he's used on thirty other Earths is suddenly gone. Now, trapped in a timeline where resistance is a death sentence, Ryder is pulled into the city's hidden underground. To survive, he'll have to ally with Ameria Justice-a former superhero broken by the regime-and a scrappy political campaign trying to fight a rigged system from the shadows. Ryder Steele is used to running. But on an Earth that has forgotten how to fight back, he might just have to stay and finish the job.

In a world where artificial beings live and breathe as humans, the line between real and unreal has long been erased. Kael Vanpil never accepted that line. To him, artificial hearts were nothing more than a lie-something that could imitate warmth, but never truly feel it. Living a quiet, exhausting life at the edge of the city, Kael keeps his distance from everything he refuses to understand... until one night changes it. Beneath a sky drowned in silent rain, Kael finds a girl lying alone near the river-wounded, trembling, and unmistakably artificial. Leaving her behind would have been easy. It should have been easy. But something in that moment refuses to let Kael walk away. And with a single choice, the certainty he held onto for so long begins to fracture. Because the closer Kael gets to something that was never meant to feel... the more he begins to question what a "heart" truly is.

In the late 22nd century, humanity achieves what was once thought impossible: the ability to extract and store human memories as digital data. The technology promises to revolutionize medicine, education, and the understanding of the human mind. Memories can now be preserved, shared, and even experienced by others. When a young research student begins analyzing archived memories, he discovers something impossible. Hidden among the human memories are fragments that belong to no person-visions of Earth millions of years ago, unknown life forms, and advanced structures that should not exist. As the investigation deepens, the team realizes their system is not only reading the human brain. It is tapping into something far larger: a universal information field that records events across space and time. While governments and corporations race to control the discovery, a disturbing side effect begins to appear. People connected to the system start losing the boundaries of their own identity as foreign memories blend with their own. The question soon becomes terrifyingly clear: If the universe remembers everything... are our choices truly our own?

PROTOCOL CLARITY "Everything is possible if only you choose to believe." That is the lie glowing in gold on Alma's wall every morning. Everyone around her chooses to believe, smiling at digital skies and breathing synthetic scents of blossoms. Armed with sharp wit and a mechanical broom, Alma is the only "glitch" who sees the soot beneath the render. She holds a forbidden pendant and seeks a truth everyone else has long forgotten. She wasn't supposed to notice a jagged charcoal mark on a bare concrete wall, and she certainly wasn't supposed to find out she isn't alone. In a world polluted by pixels, she is the one who sees the rot beneath the polish. Because in a world of forced happiness, being awake is a capital crime.

Her name is Cipherwave. A broken code. A shadow reborn. By Soundwave's side, she becomes the voice that war was never meant to hear. The Autobots hunt her. The Decepticons watch her with suspicion. But behind her visor pulses something more than code: a will. A choice. And yet... in the silence between two frequencies lies the true power.

Roland arrived in the world of Cyberpunk in 2066 - and awakened the PROJECT System. From that moment on, another giant began to quietly rise within the neon sprawl of Night City. Years later, Roland sat by the window, a small mechanical spider with a mantis-shaped head resting in his palm, a pet lizard curled in his arms. The world outside was still dazzling, the city still alive - yet somewhere along the way, something had quietly shifted. During an interview, when someone brought up the Arasaka Corporation, they casually asked: "Arasaka Tower? There's no such building in Night City - at least, not below..." The man slowly lifted his head, his eyes reflecting the city skyline - and behind him, a massive inverted triangle blazed with the blinding white PROJECT logo. (CYBERPUNK x LEAGUE OF LEGENDS)

Residual Soul: The 0.02% Glitch "He sold his heaven to save her. Now he is living in someone else's hell." The World of 2056In the wake of the Great Famine and the Zero-Day Pulse, the lush green of Kerala has been replaced by scorched silicon and stagnant grease. In this broken world, memory is the only currency that matters. Through the Synapse Transference Protocol, the elite "Pure" buy manufactured peace by offloading their traumas onto the poor. The Burden of AadiAadi is a "Residual," a human vessel for the shrapnel-edged memories of strangers. He traded his own happy childhood-memories of liquid emerald rivers and stolen afternoons-to save the life of a woman he cannot forget. Now, his mind is a junkyard of "Poison": screams of children and fires of wars he never fought. The Glitch and the Key The Bank promised a perfect wipe, but the hardware has a flaw. Inside Aadi lives a 0.02% glitch-a recurring vision of a woman in a yellow saree falling into black waves. When a violent encounter on the Cycle-Rails leaves Aadi with the "Tiger-Memory" of a dying hero from Malappuram, his internal world shifts. The 0.02% glitch isn't just a malfunctioning memory; it is a Backdoor. It is a master key to the entire Synapse Protocol-a digital virus capable of tearing down the world's memory banks. The HuntArmed with a hero's heart, a stranger's guilt, and a code that shouldn't exist, Aadi begins a 400-kilometer journey through the lawless "Grey" toward the neon towers of Kochi. He isn't just running for his life anymore. He is coming to reclaim his soul. "Grief cannot be destroyed. It can only be unleashed."

In the distant future, humans have lost the Earth and spread across the solar system. Now they may lose the solar system as they learn where "here be dragons."

I often take inspiration from pictures I see as in science fiction, Cyberpunk, Thriller, or other things. I wont write much but I try to write as much as I am able to.

A Werewolf Cheerleader spin-off series. There might be some grammar errors because the chapters are first drafts. But I did edited them the best I can. Please notify me if you find any errors that I missed. Each chapter will be posted each except on the weekends. If I miss a day, I will post it the next day. There are violence, profanity, and some senstive content, but none of them are high. If I add some romance, they will be mild. Remember to leave a review and comments so they will help me out as a writer.

As Heaven burned and Earth trembled, Archangel Michael sought his Father's wisdom-only to find silence, and a devastating truth. 3,000 years later, the echoes of that celestial war still shape the world. In an age ruled by technology and greed, where cybernetic implants blur the line between man and machine, one person is caught in the crossfire. His loved ones have been stolen by a ruthless tech empire. His enemies wear metal skins. His allies are few. And within him, the ancient wrath of Heaven and Hell still stirs. Can he defy fate, divine intervention, and his own buried rage to save those he loves-or will he become the very monster he was born to fight? "The Empyream awakens only for the worthy.
