Morph [EDITING] || Wattys 2017 Winner
"They took my sister. Now I'm taking her back." Seventeen years ago, humans started developing supernatural abilities. Comic books came true as the first person flew, created fire, mind-read. The world entered a new age where people who could do special things were revered and admired. That all changed when one man lost control of his power and unleashed a huge explosion in a crowded shopping centre, killing over a thousand others. A series of fights involving superhumans broke out, resulting in the destruction of multiple cities and hundreds upon hundreds of further lives lost. The government began hunting down those extraordinary people with the assistance of a specialised unit: trained in recognising different abilities. Suddenly powers became something scary, uncontrollable and dangerous, that nobody wanted to own up to having. Seventeen years after the Explosion, Amelie Rose Carmichael is the daughter of the man who is in charge of hunting down and imprisoning these people. She enjoys a comfortable life, protected from any threats against her. But when Amelie develops an ability without warning, she must try to keep it hidden from her family, her friends, and above all her father. Can she keep a secret? Will she use her powers to help the rebel organisation that has approached her? And what secrets are the people around her hiding?

WEAPON "X" (BOOK 1 OF THE "X" TRILOGY)
After a catastrophic government project shatters half the Earth into toxic wastelands, the survivors are divided-those who live behind the towering walls of the new regime... and the mutated, hunted anomalies left to rot beyond it. Deep within a fortified lab lies Nessa Halsten, known only by the codename WEAPON X-a girl born of fire and destruction, with a power so absolute, even death refuses to claim her. For a decade, she's been imprisoned, tortured, and dissected under the cold eye of Rowan Thornhill-the Supreme Commander's heir and a brilliant, sadistic visionary obsessed with reshaping the world through her devastating gift. But when a rogue faction of surviving mutants known as the Shadow Legion storms the facility and frees her, Nessa is thrust into a war she never asked for-one where trust is fragile, and betrayal cuts deeper than any experiment. As she trains to unlock the monstrous force inside her, a new terror looms: a mysterious portal in the Outer Zone, pulsing with alien energy and threatening to consume what's left of Earth. Only Nessa can break the barrier. Only Weapon X can stand between salvation and annihilation. Yet as war breaks out, alliances splinter, and Rowan returns with an army of hybrid abominations, Nessa must choose: remain the weapon they forged... or become the reckoning they never saw coming. They called her a monster. They should have prayed she stayed buried. The real war hasn't even begun yet.

I am writing to you from the future, and I warn you, all the events in this story are true. Look around you. The people that you are sitting next to might not even be who you think they are. Supernaturals aren't a hoax. They blend in with others, act as though they are normal, but don't be fooled, because they aren't. If you don't want to be involved with this mess of a war, then I suggest you not read what I am writing. But if you do, suit yourself. Don't say I didn't warn you. They are out there. They are waiting. I am one of them. I am a supernatural. I am real. And I am part of the future of your world.Complete
