If the colonies at L5 represent the pinnacle of human existence, then L4 is the grittier reality upon which it is built.  What does it take to survive there?

In 2095 the Lagrange colony at L4 has a dark side.  Kimiko is an Operational Supervisor in the light, but in the shadow she is Sayoko, a master of the cyberscape, a fixer with an edge.  Thanks to her associate James she has tokens that create colourful costumes with great powers.  But in this twilight world can even these be enough?

This is the complete first draft.  I won't be marking it complete until I have had a chance to clean it up.

ARC10 by LLMontez

[Book 1 of the ARC10 Trilogy] **Winner of the 2017 Watty Storysmith award** The President created an underground safe-haven for the survivors of the alien invasion. He built it to save them all from total annihilation. He protects them, feeds them, keeps them under his ever-watchful gaze so they can live. All he asks is that they obey. Captain Janika Lorn doesn't want to obey. Not if it means spreading her legs and contributing to the President's precious eugenics program. As a perfect candidate for the Human Hope Project, she is obligated by law to make more citizens for the dying society. But all she wants is her freedom to fight the Invaders and protect the people who already exist. If the mandated program wasn't bad enough, the worst part is trying to fulfill it with Captain Dean Freyer, her scientifically matched partner and best friend of sixteen years. Just as Captain Lorn is about to succumb to her fate, another opportunity arises. A mysterious commanding officer asks her to lead a human refugee ship--to save humanity by evacuating the destroyed Earth and shuttling the remaining population to a new habitable exoplanet 400 light years away. The mission is perilous. Especially because now, standing between her and her freedom is the hostile alien hosts of her ship, the ARC10, a sister returned from the dead, an array of impossibly confusing alien tech, a rekindled heat between her and Dean, and a sexy militia chief she can't seem to keep her hands off of. ARC10 is a romance-heavy sci-fi with the speculative horror of Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale and the military action of Battle: Los Angeles. Cover art by @FayLane Copyright © 2016 by LL Montez
Adjustable World: Tefter by itsNisch
22 parts Ongoing Mature
In the cursed world of Eden, every individual is born with an anomaly-an uncontrollable power that can be either a fortifiable quirk or a catastrophic force. The Source, a powerful research organization, led by a prophesied Demigod girl, has long kept dangerous anomalies in check, but it easily gets overpowered when a mysterious virus emerges, transforming humans into omnipotent, soulless entities. The selfish government and powerhouses use this chance to ostracize the prophesied girl to reside far beyond the border and destroy the Source. Decades later, Zafer joins a new uprising faction, seeking nothing but recognition in the world with no restrictions. During his quest for strength, Zafer accidentally becomes a pivotal player in bringing about a new world order, one that will alter the fate of Eden forever. As Zafer rises, he finds himself allied with- and opposed to- the most formidable humans and god-like entities the world has ever seen. Through shocking revelations, clashes with power beyond imagination, and belief-challenging events, Zafer must discover his true purpose and identity in a world on the brink of transformation. Will he become a hero, a villain, or join with the prophesied girl? Yooo everyone! This novel is a story I've been structuring for over 5 years now, and after writing from scratch 4 times, I'm finally somewhat self-confident enough to publish it! THERE ARE NO FILLER CHAPTERS! Each chapter is mostly a combination of action and World Building/ Character development, and sometimes only one of the two! I pondered a lot wile constructing the story in order to avoid repetitions in the story, so each action scene and plot twist is unique in it's own way! As mentioned, the only thing that's distorting my confidence are my writing skills, so PLEASE LEAVE A FEEDBACK. This is crucial for my improvement as I would love to turn this novel into a manga. App. length 150 ch

It's been five years since the plague struck. Leah knows there are other survivors, but she's avoiding them. She is doing just fine on her own. Surviving after everyone she knew died has made her physically strong and honed her intelligence, but she is emotionally devastated. There is nothing to fear if you don't make yourself emotionally vulnerable. James has spent the last five years helping to build up a colony of survivors. He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in. Her time of solitude is up. Leah sparks something in James he's never felt before. He's not letting this one get away, certainly not twice. Warning: Contains sex, some violence, occasional foul language, and adult issues. Genre: Science Fiction, Romance, Post-apocalyptic, Dark romance Length: 84,468 words This book has been published on Amazon.
