Where our nameless protagonist tries to recall events and figure out what happened to her mother, her friend and what the machine was meant to do.
Just a short story based off a dream I had a while ago, let me know if you want more of this story or have any suggestions on what I could add to it. I plan on hopefully continuing this.

A Big Book of Short Stories
A collection of my ideas. While most could have been cared for and nurtured until they grew into fully fledged books, they have only matured halfway, creating a efficient way to get stuck in your head. I'll also post short stories that I may or may not try turning into novels. From "The Kid is Hot Tonight," a story about such topics as high school parties and domestic abuse. To "Just Another Nightmare," a story about a kind of hell you might never have thought of. This collection will likely make you question if something is wrong with me. Spoiler alert; there is. It will also show you the farthest reaches of the world and the furthest horrors that I can write about. If you want an update on how the next story is coming along, you can ask me however you want. Seriously I'm so so lonely...

Em
Em is a young graduate with a troubled past and an even more troubled future. After finishing university she has just started her career at GCHQ, Britain's answer to the NSA. She soon finds herself involved with an investigation into a major threat against London and the Internet itself. Unprepared, and under huge pressure to catch unknown terrorists, Em starts to doubt whether she's cut out for secret government work. Things go from bad to worse when the terrorists realise she's close to uncovering their plans, and she's confronted with a nightmare from a past life she thought she'd forgotten. ***This is a cyber/techno mystery thriller with a touch of fanfic something else too. It covers a little about analysing data, neural networks, super computers and low-tech cyber terrorism.*** Also, it's my first attempt at writing a book. There's going to be about 30 chapters and 80k words of this, and I'll be adding new chapters to Wattpad as soon as they're "ready". By this I mean readable, but not perfect. Any comments and thoughts are welcomed. Any guesses about exactly why this is part fanfiction are welcome too!Complete![Travel To Hell [ Not Edited]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/4250889-256-k233860.jpg)
Travel To Hell [ Not Edited]
[ Note : this was my first story ever, it's really bad (you seriously don't know how bad it is, there is no grammar) and I'm still trying to edit/ re-write it, so if you want to read it then you have been warned. There is a new version, you can see it if you clicked on my profile ] Alex is a normal 18 years old girl, going to school, meeting her friends in the weekends, talking and chatting, all that is normal .. right? Meeting her friends on Saturday is also normal, but the thing that isn't normal is the things that happened. Her friends vanished just right in front of her eyes, not only them but everything was gone. Now Alex have to face a whole new world on her own to find a way to get out of this world. A world that looks like Hell but in many different ways. But the question is .... is that easy ?Complete

Empowered
As the narrator, I'm tempted to simply write "Middle Finger" because that is essentially what you'll feel like I'm giving you in telling this story. However, for the sake of not being a complete dick, I'll write a little more than just a description of a disrespectful gesture. This story can aptly be described as crude and deranged. As you may have surmised, a crazy person will be telling this story, and the characters involved are indeed also all crazy in their own special ways. So, given this exercise in mental illness, the topics touched on (in no particular order) in this tale are destruction, death, superpowered wackos, torture, pain, loneliness, chaos, the will to survive, never giving up, giving up and not giving a shit, the desire to protect, failing to protect and causing more trouble than was already present, disappointing and/or abusive parental figures, bullies, unjust punishments, just punishments, racism, violent and usually superpowered fights, sci-fi gadgets, bitterness, sarcasm, twisted and demented comedy, control or lack thereof, weird and awkward high school drama, lies and brainwashing, alien aggression, moral ambiguity, unhinged villains, fantastical weapons, a piece of shit main character, conditional friendship, a fuck load of musical references, anger, fear, depression, extra-dimensional creatures, godly powers, various esoteric connections, pop culture references, and of course, in general, superpowers.Complete
