Истории Defiance

Across the golden bridge, the kingdom glitters with warmth, prayer, and the illusion of peace. Beyond it, hidden in the mountains, stone chambers swallow the forgotten, and the air tastes of blood, ash, and silence. When Thalia escapes the prison no one was ever meant to survive, she stumbles into the ancient forest half-dead and marked by powers older than the kingdom itself. Bound to the voices of the slain, shadowed by a raven that remembers every injustice, and chosen by forces that no longer believe humanity deserves to exist, she uncovers a terrifying truth-the gods she thought had saved her are preparing to erase the world entirely. Now hunted by the false kin that raised her, haunted by the dead they left behind, and watched by a dragon that should only exist in legend, she must decide whether to become the weapon the gods intended... or the one thing powerful enough to stand against them.

At Duskmoor Academy, only the powerful survive. And the most powerful of them all is Lucien Duskmoor-vampire royalty, untouchable heir, and the most dangerous boy in the school. When Luca Thorne arrives, no one expects much. Small. Quiet. Easily ignored. But Luca is hiding a secret that could destroy everything. Because Luca is actually Seraphina Thorne-a high-born vampire who refused to be forced into an arranged marriage with Lucien himself. Disguised and determined, she's come to Duskmoor to prove she's more than a pawn in her family's plans. But Lucien doesn't ignore what doesn't make sense. And Luca doesn't behave like someone beneath him. As suspicion grows and tensions ignite, Seraphina finds herself caught in a dangerous game with the one person who could expose her-and ruin her. Because the closer Lucien gets to the truth... The harder it becomes to walk away.

"Just because we win the war doesn't mean we don't lose everything in the process." - Joey Magnom --------- Practically everyone dreams of having superpowers. Lift a building, breathe underwater, fly. But at such a cost? Morgan would very happily shove it back to wherever it came from. In a close future, certain children and teenagers suddenly begin to exhibit their own unique superpowers. In order to contain them, keep the secret, and abuse these young adults' power for their own advantage, the government hunted them down and opened camps to train and brainwash these 'supernaturals' in cruel ways. It didn't matter if the child was five or eighteen; they'd take them and give them the same horrible treatment. Morgan was hunted and taken. Rylie was not. Morgan Carter was put in the camps and wasn't able to come out the same way she came in. She became their pet telekinetic/assassin, ready to kill and torture without hesitation and knew how to. She forgot her old life, including her name. Rylie Garner paraded as Light Glider around his city-their own personal superhero-escaping being caught with the help of his friends while trying to find his little supernatural sister, who was taken. But then, their stories began to intertwine. --------- Completed/Being Rewritten

I am Aubrey Hunter and upon the shores of loneliness I had walked all my life only surrounded by friends. I needed something more than that ,eighteen years already down the road ,various transitions had occurred within me when suddenly there came the man that changed everything in my life.

My name is Cae and me and my sister Sabrina are part of the making of the new world. We,and the islanders of Handias, have been told we are the last of human kind. However in this new society women have no rights. The leaders of our island were left a book of rules instructing us on how to survive and thrive and they are always telling us that they want the best for all of human kind. I wish I still believed it,if I ever did, but I know now that it is just yet another layer to the lies they tell us slowly trapping us because here lies work better than bars. I shouldn't even be writing this. I could be killed for writing this,but I have to find a way to get it out before I do something stupid. Before they find out about the secret my sister and I have that could destroy the whole system. This is a story entirely from my own imagination. Please comment and vote it's really encouraging. ❤

A dystopian short story Being LGBT wasn't usually talked about. In fact it never was. People frowned down on it. The government hid it from everyone. Or so they thought. They didn't end up fully hiding it though.

In 'I Give Up,' shaydhd delves into the depths of disillusionment and despair, confronting the harsh realities of a world that often seems to favor luck over effort and extinguish hope in the face of adversity. Through raw and unfiltered verse, the author wrestles with feelings of inadequacy, loss, and the temptation to surrender to the flames of despair. Yet, amidst the darkness, a glimmer of resilience emerges as the poet defiantly renounces the shackles of expectation and embraces the power of self-determination. With stirring conviction, the poem becomes a rallying cry for reclaiming agency, rejecting defeat, and illuminating the world with the transformative force of love and perseverance. 'I Give Up' is a poignant reflection on the human spirit's capacity to rise above despair and shine brightly in the face of darkness.

Elliot Vale was raised inside the perfect city. Above the Sectors, life is clean, orderly, and generous. Wealth is inherited carefully, passed down like a duty. The city teaches its children that nothing is taken without reason-and that what lies below is simply how things must be. Elliot has never doubted that story. Until now. Below the upper levels, the city's perfection begins to fracture. The lower Sectors exist to sustain a comfort they will never share, and the people who live there understand the cost of silence far better than Elliot ever has. When Elliot is called to formally inherit his place in the system, refusal becomes unavoidable. But walking away from privilege is not a private act. It disrupts contracts, unsettles balances, and exposes a weakness the city has spent generations concealing. As unrest stirs below and order hardens above, Elliot learns that truth does not dismantle power cleanly. It leaks. It spreads. And sometimes, it burns.

Elhaida is to be executed for the crimes she has committed. When she is standing before the firing squad, however, the execution doesn't quite go as planned.
