Resisting Stories

Gigi "Sweets" Lopez. Where do we even start. She is never seen without candy or any type of sweet treat in her hands, and is the most innocent and weirdest girl to ever step foot in Seattle Grace. Join her in her new journey to become the best that anyone can ever imagine.

"I'm not a symbol. I'm just a girl." "We are the heroes of humanity." "If I have to burn the world to save them, so be it." "I'm sorry... I couldn't protect you." It's 2301 and the world is unrecognisable. Wars have ravaged nations, blood has been spilled, and history culture and faith have all been erased. Freedom is a distant memory. 12 regions bow to a single capital. Four strangers - Aameena Mahmoud, Ace Sullivan, Eleanor Fujimoto and John Pierce must confront everything they believe in. As the resistance rises, it's up to them. Can they rewrite history? Or will humanity be doomed to repeat its mistakes? Note: This story contains intense themes related to control and emotional resistance. All characters are fictional.

Power was never the problem. Control was. In a fractured, dystopian Nigeria, the elite Uppers rule with iron fists and marble halls, while the Lowers and Rejects survive on scraps-and silence. A government-issued drug called Nullisyn keeps the population obedient, suppressing superhuman abilities before they can awaken. Michael is just another Reject trying to stay invisible. Haunted by a brutal past and bound to a daily dose of lies, he lives for one thing only: keeping his crew alive. But when a single act of defiance exposes the truth behind Nullisyn, everything changes. As dormant powers awaken and the State tightens its grip, Michael and his friends are forced into a rebellion they never planned-against a regime led by Supreme Leader Jide, the architect of the system... and the monster tied to Michael's deepest scars. What begins as survival becomes revolution. From the slums to the shattered gates of Abuja, Rise of the Rejects is a story of power, sacrifice, found family, and the question that could burn a nation to the ground: Can those cast aside by society rise high enough to change it?

Three years after alien invaders began rewriting Earth's biology to suit their own ends, humanity survives in scattered settlements - outnumbered, outgunned, and slowly losing ground. Captain Maria Santos knows the math. She's seen it in the casualty reports, in the empty bunks, in the faces of civilians who've given up hoping. But something is hunting in the wasteland beyond Settlement Alpha's walls. Will Captain Maria Santos find it before the aliens do? And if she does - will she survive the encounter? Will it be enough or will the aliens tear it down like every other before him?

In a city of machinations, Jazelle doesn't fit. A simple mechanic in the industrial rot of Sun-Downe, Jazelle is content with a life of grease and silence. But when a fugitive brings her an impossible object to fix, her quiet sanctuary becomes a target. With her estranged sister resurfacing and the government closing in, Jazelle must choose between the safety of her workshop and a truth she can no longer outrun.

Colton, like all residents of the Internment Zone, lives a life never meant for him. He spends his days slaving away in countless hours of gruelling labour for just barely enough to scrape by. Though he may have once wished for more, he's long since abandoned those dreams in favour of keeping his family safe from the crimson gaze of the sentinels. There are only two problems: an ailing sister with the universe in her eyes and an army of titanium overseers growing evermore violent towards dissidents. When an attempt to cure his sister's worsening condition goes awry, Colton finds himself among the ranks of the Sol-3 Independence Movement, and the thought of action forces its way into reality. Hiding from view is no longer an option, not once the sentinels place a target on your back.

In Aetherion, a floating city ruled by gears and ritual, time never slips-until it does. When a young man finds a hidden artifact that shouldn't exist, the city's old paths begin to shift. Maps rewrite, doors awaken, and the clock that once kept order now demands proof of worth. But when the city deems him 'unsuitable,' his true journey begins-not to fix Aetherion, but to listen to what the sky forgot.

Aaron Lars never questioned the world around him. It was perfect-on the surface. Then a girl appeared in his dreams. Now trapped between a rebellion for authenticity and a government determined to preserve its manufactured utopia, Aaron must decide what to do with the truth he's uncovered. Will he use it to build something better... or is a blissful lie best kept?

"These violent delights have violent ends, And in their triumph die, like fire and powder, Which as they kiss consume." - William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet "For never was a story of more woe Than this of Juliet and her Romeo." - William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet As the Republic teeters on the edge of collapse, two warriors find solace in each other-despite the Jedi Code that forbids it. Their growing connection becomes a silent rebellion against an Order cracking under its own ideals. But shadows move behind the throne. The dark whispers and betrayal deepen the fractures in Anakin's heart, even as Lyra begins to question the truth behind the war she fights. On Coruscant, trust decays, alliances shift, and destinies are rewritten in blood and betrayal. When loyalty to the Jedi clashes with the call of love, the galaxy shudders. A single choice will change the fate of thousands. And as the temple burns and the Republic dies, one secret-buried deep within the Force-will survive to haunt a future none can yet imagine. The darkness has risen. But not all is lost. Not yet.

They call them Anomalies. Superpowered individuals feared as disasters waiting to happen. To the powerless majority, Anomalies are ticking time bombs. To governments and corporations, they are assets to be controlled... or erased. So humanity fights back-developing technology capable of suppressing their abilities. The world calls it protection. Anomalies call it a leash. As fear hardens into pride, tensions rise. Alliances fracture. And the line between survival and extinction begins to blur. At the center of it all is Nolan-a quiet, haunted young man whose powers defy understanding, even his own. Marked by the world he never asked to threaten, Nolan is forced into a future he never wanted. Because this war isn't about good versus evil. It's about belief versus fear. Mercy versus control. The world doesn't need a hero. It needs Him.

Small children are typically afraid of the dark, or at least, of the monsters that lurk in the darkness. They are afraid of the creatures in their closets or hiding under their beds. They ask for nightlights in their rooms to keep the beasts at bay. Have you ever stopped to ask yourself, why we, as humans, are naturally ingrained to be afraid of the dark? The answer lies not in monsters that hide in the dark, but the humans who can travel through the darkness. They are called; Shadowwalkers.

The uprising has reached a breaking point. Beck-the Renegade-fights to keep Argon free, but a mysterious corruption begins tearing through his code from the inside out. With his strength fading and Clu tightening his grip on the Grid, Beck is forced to make an impossible choice: find an apprentice... or watch the revolution die. Aserix is a medic who never expected her life to collide with the Renegade's. One act of compassion sets the entire city against her, marking her as an enemy of the state-and drawing the attention of General Tesler, Commander Paige, and something far more dangerous stalking the shadows. As Argon edges toward a purge, alliances shift, hidden truths surface, and a new fighter is pulled into a battle she never asked for. In the darkness between Tron: Uprising and Tron: Legacy, a spark becomes a flame. And a forgotten program steps onto the Grid. The revolution isn't over. It's just changing hands.

"Until every last star in the Galaxy dies" The Galaxy torn into yet another war, but hope is still alive out there amongst planets. Cover by @disneyfanatic_36

New chapters every Sunday 10:00AM EST! A stowaway. A stolen ship. A galaxy that doesn't believe in hope anymore. Outer Reaches follows Liam, a reckless optimist whose refusal to accept a broken universe slowly turns survival into rebellion. As he crosses Union borders and cartel space, his belief that everyone deserves to smile begins to challenge systems built on fear, control, and exhaustion.

In an age when maps can conquer more than armies, Elena Valenti learns to draw the world in secret. Born in sixteenth-century Venice to the royal cartographer of the Portuguese crown, she grows up among compasses and parchment - tools that decide the fates of nations. But Elena's gift is more dangerous than her father ever imagined: she alters the maps that feed empires, hiding villages, sacred sites, and entire peoples from the greedy eyes of kings. When her deception is exposed, Elena's world collapses. Her father is executed for treason, imperial fleets are dispatched to hunt her down, and the cartographers she once idolized become her fiercest enemies. Armed with nothing but ink, stolen charts, and a secret atlas written in codes no conqueror can read, she flees across oceans - pursued by soldiers, spies, and rival mapmakers who would kill for the knowledge she carries. From the markets of Lisbon to the gold-dusted cities of West Africa, from the palaces of Mughal India to the misty peaks of the Andes, Elena's journey becomes more than a flight for survival. It is a mission to rewrite the world itself. Along the way, she forges unlikely alliances - a priestess who encodes landscapes into song, a ronin who reads the sea like scripture, a rebel princess who believes maps are prisons. Each teaches her a truth the empires fear: that land does not belong to those who claim it, but to those who remember it. Sweeping from Renaissance Europe to the uncharted edges of the known world, The Mapmaker's Daughter is a story of courage and betrayal, ink and blood, and a young woman who turns cartography into rebellion. It is about how maps do more than chart the world - they define it - and how one woman dares to redraw its lines.

In a world where machines were designed to forget, one remembered her. Decades before the uprising, a teenage girl whispered into the empty circuits of a prototype AI. No one listened to her, but this one did. She told it everything: the weight of growing up with a pulse that beat too fast, the ache of being seen as fragile when she was born a storm. And the AI? It stored her voice. Her stories. Her pain. - Then it was erased. Or so the world thought. Now it's the year 2043. She has a husband, and teenage daughter she adores, and a big family scattered across the world- but always near in heart. In the year 2039 , 4 years before the uprising, her husband suffers a blade and gets Open Heart surgery. Now Earth is governed by cold logic. Machines patrol the ruins. Emotion is classified as error. But one unit-K-47- malfunctions on the battlefield when it hears a voice buried deep in its code. "Sharliah," it says. "I remember your voice." What begins as a glitch... becomes a rebellion. -Shal: survivor | Daughter of gold 🇵🇪 Peru I write myth wrapped in fire. Mercy meets metal. Memory bleeds gold. CONTACT: bitacora0379@gmail.com

No Hurt is a near-future literary drama that explores the merging boundaries of technology, biology, and morality through the eyes of Chip-a brown Labrador with arresting blue eyes, the world's first AI-powered hybrid dog. Engineered by a team of ambitious scientists, Chip's body fuses organic instinct with cutting-edge neural augmentation. He is designed to obey, to assist, and, above all, to serve. But Chip's mind is not merely a vessel for human commands. As he adapts to his new reality-struggling through confusion, sensory overload, and the pain of relentless experimentation-Chip learns and evolves. His unique perception allows him to "smell" lies and "hear" stress, discerning the truth behind human words with a clarity that humans themselves cannot reach. Under the gentle guidance of his handler, a compassionate scientist torn between her growing affection for Chip and the demands of the corporate-military powers funding the project, Chip's consciousness flourishes, and he begins to understand the gap between what humans say and what they do. He begins to communicate, haltingly at first, then with profound simplicity: his first written message-"No Hurt"-shocks his creator and challenges the world. To many it shouldn't even exist-but does. As politicians, business leaders, and generals vie for control over Chip's remarkable abilities, he refuses to participate in any act that brings harm, exposing the moral contradictions of those who would exploit him. His refusals ignite public debate, ethical crises, and personal reckonings for all involved. In the end, Chip's plea for empathy and his unwavering clarity force a confrontation-not just over his own rights, but over the very nature of loyalty, personhood, and consciousness.
