Advancements in cybernetics have left the lines between man and technology a blur. Enhanced machines were expected to serve the people, until those machines usurped the people.

When the streets surrounding her home erupt into a battlefield between the insurgent cyborgs and the government that wishes to control them, Ellery Kent hadn't thought that she would be considered the enemy. 

But with the one defining feature separating her from the rest- a single, luminescent, blue eye- she finds herself isolated from everything she has ever known, and dependent on a people she once considered far beneath her.

Cyberblade City: Resurrection Protocol by Bonecrusher213

In the ashes of a global zombie apocalypse, one man rose from the wreckage-not as a savior, but as something... else. Former military officer Xavier Williams was mortally wounded in the final days of the old world. Revived through experimental cybernetic technology, he became the first of his kind: a fusion of man and machine with a mind forged in war and a body built for a new era. Reborn as an immortal cyborg, Xavier rebuilt the ruins of Miami into Cyberblade City-a neon-lit metropolis of steel, surveillance, and synthetic life. But as civilization claws its way back under his iron rule, Xavier begins to confront the one enemy he never trained to face: his own fading humanity. Haunted by memories of who he once was and tempted by the cold logic of the machine he's become, Xavier must navigate conspiracies, rising rebellion, and the lingering undead. Because something in the shadows is stirring-something that threatens not just the city he built, but the fragile soul he's trying to reclaim.

Prodigy (Complete) by EdwardMullen

The greatest tragedy the world has ever known turned out to be the ultimate catalyst for change. In the wake of World War III, which decimated most of the world's population, the remaining survivors vowed to not continue to repeat the same mistakes of the past. Fortunately, they had something previous generations did not have - advanced technology. The year is 2117 and this once shattered civilization has become prosperous again. Innovative forms of technology have enabled them to abandon the old model and re-engineer a better way of living for all. Brain implants and genetic modifications have made an entire population educated, healthy, and kind. Despite the benefits of this technology, it has created some unforeseen side effects that threaten humankind's existence. When technology proves to be inept at solving the world's problem, a new hope emerges in the unlikeliest form - a young orphan girl. *** Cyberpunk, dystopian, technology, future, futurism, scifi, heroine, prodigy...

Turing Test by chicavara

In the year 2150, emotions are a forgotten language. Feelings, outlawed. Humanity, reduced to an unfeeling, cold existence under the iron rule of The Regimen. But deep in the monochrome labyrinth of this dystopian world, a glitch emerges in the matrix of perfection. Cora, a brilliant government engineer responsible for maintaining the emotion-suppressing technology, experiences an unexpected malfunction. Suddenly, she is overwhelmed by a wave of foreign sensations - emotions. An all-consuming vortex of joy, fear, anger, and a deep-seated love for her fellow engineer, Eli. In a world stripped of color, Eli is an enigma. A member of a burgeoning underground rebellion, he hides a powerful secret - a genetic mutation that makes him immune to emotion suppressants. Eli has known the pain and pleasure of feelings all his life. Now, he becomes Cora's compass in her chaotic new reality, guiding her through the wild storm of emotions and introducing her to a hidden world fighting for emotional freedom. Cora and Eli are drawn together by a bond neither can explain, a shared emotional journey that stands in quiet defiance against The Regimen's frigid rule. As Cora navigates the thrilling highs and devastating lows of human emotion, a choice looms - return to a life devoid of feelings, or risk everything for the rebellion and the tantalizing promise of emotional freedom. --------------- A 10 part series

In Case of Rejection by xusnaillig

After the world collapsed, with half the country ravaged by wild fires and the rest divided up into classist sectors made up of whoever is left, Matthew Spender wants nothing more than to go about his life as normally as possible. His father is a prestigious engineer, working for the higher ups, and his mother, a clothes maker, and Matthew is usually shunned at school and by society for the former. Matthew's barely normal existence is shattered when the world around him starts changing with the implementation of new, brutal technologies: converting the living into robot-like machines, and the responsibility falls on his unassuming shoulders to right the wrongs. With his close-knit circle of friends and his iron will, Matthew faces the ultimate test that adolescence presents: how much damage can one teenager really do? // BOOK ONE //

Alienus by KrazyObsession

No one expected that it would happen until it did. Earth was dying. We, the few who survived the disease, were all contained in cells with artificial light and oxygen and food in the form of pills. So when help came in the form of C'Riel, an alien race that lived in a planet called Xe'Krein, many people found hope. But I was wary. Why would the C'Riel help us? How did we benefit them? What I didn't expect to happen was meeting him. The fire-eyed alien. My alien. And then I found out, that sometimes answers to the questions we want to know are sick and leave you wondering if everything was a lie.

"Sparks & Steel: Jinx in Detroit" A Robocop x Arcane Crossover Story by Chris9417

After a catastrophic misfire in Piltover, Jinx finds herself ripped from Zaun and thrown into a dystopian Detroit-a city on the brink of collapse, ruled by crime and corporate greed. Here, Omni Consumer Products privatizes the police force, and a cyborg law enforcer named RoboCop walks the streets, a machine of justice in a world teetering on chaos. Thrown together by circumstance, Jinx and RoboCop form an unlikely partnership: chaos and steel, sparks and precision. As they battle rogue operatives, criminal networks, and lingering shadows from both her past and his corporate overlords, the duo fights not just to survive, but to restore hope to a city that has forgotten it. From explosive street battles to quiet moments of reflection, Detroit becomes a new home for a girl who once thrived in chaos-and for a lawman learning what it means to protect with more than just cold metal. Will Sparks and Steel be enough to save the city, or will its shadows finally consume them both?
