Summary:
In the year 2317, Radius Inc. was conducting research on the possibility of mutating the human DNA to enable mankind to prolong life for an extra hundred years. After injecting the serum into the first Test Subject, a young child with green eyes and dark hair, all seemed fine. Until the serum was mistakingly distributed to the world. The serum did not have the same effect on others that it did on the young girl for reasons still unknown, instead, within two years the country's population was wiped out. The same effect slowly started to affect the rest of the world, it took three more years for the rest of humanity to be extinguished from the world.
Now nine years later, the young girl is 19 and seemingly alone in the world, with no memory of before she was 10 years old, she doesn't even know her own name. And on top of that, she has a special kind of telekinetic power. With these powers, she can see and feel the emotions from objects that people have left behind. Now she is starting to question a fact that has always seemed certain for the last 9 years. Are there others still out there?

Trigger warning - Severely sensitive topics. Around 25 years ago, an unknown virus plagued the Earth- targeting none other than the cells responsible for constructing one's genetic code. Humans, animals, plants- any living matter that comes in contact with it quickly faces its immense mutational power, sparking nothing but unruly destruction. This living nightmare demanded more than a simple adaptation, it forced a complete overhaul on daily life. Yet, despite humanity's best efforts to adapt to this new system- cities plummeted to the ground, nations were obliterated in chaotic arrays of fire, countries infected by the scourge of madness brought about by meaningless war. Humanity was driven to the brink of extinction. In a desperate attempt to survive these conditions, humanity came up with something to protect them. Colonies. A radius considered a "Safe Zone", as it incapacitates any infected attempting to breach its perimeter. Its the perfect environment to rebuild what's left of society. On the flip-side, the infected create nests of their own, producing genetic amalgams beyond human comprehension, and attracting many others of their kind. It is assumed that their sole objective is to propagate. Consume. These are called "Contamination Zones", and their increased numbers have caused dozens of Colonies, and outposts alike, to suffer breaches and irreversible changes all over the continent. The infected are ruthlessly growing stronger. Rhys, the Warden of Zamaton Colony, has taken measures to prevent the catastrophic events from ever reaching their quiet life, where Kayden Moss, the survivalist in question, has lived for the past 3 years. If all goes well, they'll avoid these breaches, Or so it seems...
Nine Lives
The world of Nine Lives is much like our own, in every way except one; there are a select few people in the population of every country with a special ability. This may be moving things with your mind, to indestructible skin, to returning from the dead or manipulating electricity. Think you've heard this story before? Think again. For every power an OWPI may have - they have a disability to match it. Whilst a group of adopted teenage otherworldly powered individuals escape the hold of an abusive mother; a Russian assassin, hell bent on killing every OWPI she can find, follows the otherworldly powered young American vigilante, Hero Allman, to London. But when the MI6 start their attempts to stop her, a mad scramble over the children's lives begins. Otherworldly Powered Individual (OWPI): a person with extraterrestrial abilities given to them through an unnaturally evolved genome created by the exposure to an unlisted form of cosmic radiation. The decedents of those exposed to the genome in the use of the 'Cure for Madness' in the 1860s and 70s still have the side effects of it today, and for every power they have - a disability comes with it.Complete
Differential
Different- 1) Not the same as another, or each other; Unlike in nature, form or quality. I thought being different was a good thing. You know, the whole 'Im not conforming to you' deal. I thought I was unique, my own person. Apparently not everyone thinks being different is a good thing. They're afraid of my difference. Maybe it's my long white hair? Or my glowing silver eyes? Or it could just be because.... I'm not fully human. I tried to keep it a secret. Really I did. I knew the consequence of something like this getting out. So my secret stayed a secret. All until the day the little girl walked out in front of the truck.Complete

Fast forward a year and we defeat if again. The mind flay, to be exact. I have powers that no one knows about, well someone does. The person I trust most. Will. The only reason I didn't help defeat it was cause my powers would have killed someone. So I didn't use them. Plus chose to do it herself. We got a new member of the group. Max. She's from California. She use to hate us- now we couldn't be closer. Fast forward five months, and me and Will confessed our feelings for each other. Mike and El did, too. But it was kinda obvious that they liked each other. El told me about a girl that is strong but I don't know if she's talking about me. Now we are all just happy and all together. Like a family. I don't know when I'm going to tell them though. (I will list the powers in the story and what they are and stuff. Also everything else.)Complete

Maze Madness
Three years have passed and it seems that everything has gone back to normal, well almost. We had only got the cure last year. For a full year we had been searching for some kind of science lab, but we weren't able to find anything. We went west about god knows how many miles and were able to find someplace called Diversified Service. I've never heard of the name before, but I knew that it was a scientific field. When we all gave the cure to the frightened man that tried to kill us, he made sure there was plenty of it. After giving it to hundreds of people, there was no way we were going back to our original towns. We were living in an abandoned mansion that was just about 3 blocks down the road and into a hidden path beside the woods. When we were there there was a small girl, her name was Ellenor Tucker she told us that she was eight years old and lived with her much older brother, Zach.Complete

Alexia Lambre, Teenage Telekinetic: The School
Alexia Lambre had never been a truly 'normal' girl, because she had always had the added 'bonus' of telekinesis. At least, some might call it a bonus. Alexia would call it a curse, because throughout her entire life she worried about someone finding out about it and taking her away. Someone did find out about it, but not the government like she assumed would happen. She was soon offered a place at what was called 'The School,' a place for people like her to learn about their powers. When she arrived though, she learned otherwise. She makes friends with the other kids, and they all join up against the scientists at the school, those that like to do tests and even experiments on them. Will the group ever escape the school? Or will the appearance of a new teen and 'experiment C' do them in?Complete
Oblivion
Vitium Cavum. Or, the better known 'Hollow Disease'. Five years ago, in an alternate universe, scientists were on the verge of creating the immortality drug. Only, somehow, it escaped in the early stages of development, when everyone was working to rid of all the negative side effects. Those 'side effects' practically rip a person's soul away from them. Hence the name 'Hollow' Disease, because this virus makes whoever is affected an empty shell with no soul. Now, only a handful of people around the world are currently unaffected by this disease. Some of them had their families torn apart, some lost their friends, and some lost the person they were in love with. And that's where our story begins; in the year 2019, five years after Hollow Disease nearly destroyed the entire world. [Warnings: death, blood, violence, attempted suicide, suicidal thoughts, mentions of stillbirth, and other mature themes]Complete
The Experiments
We were just kids. Not experiments. Hundreds of kids were kidnapped at a young age and taken to a place called the Compound. Here they are put through ruthless tests in order to get one thing; mutants. When that breakthrough is finally achieved on A-36971 and a group of unknown people show up the next day, she takes the chance at asking for help using her new 'powers.' But getting this help came at a great cost. Once they're out and free, they realize the head scientist isn't letting them get away that easily. And he doesn't want his lifelong work to be out in the world just yet. So he'll just have to kill his experiments.Complete
