This is the journal of Darren Stratt, an "imperfect" who is being hunted in America due to a new law which has stripped disadvantaged individuals--now called "imperfects"--of their rights. In Darren's journal, he documents the horrors of a world run by an all-powerful government that helps itself by pretending to care about the greater good.

In Part 1 (April-June, 2066), the Perfect America Bill is signed into law for the first time. The effects are instantaneous; armed men and women are breaking down doors, killing and capturing so-called imperfects, gunning down anyone who stands in their way, and (worst of all) enjoying every second of it.

Darren is currently hiding in a bunker beneath his house, but it won't stay safe for long. Soon, he'll need to start thinking of a new safe point.

When Arden stumbles across a half-conscious, bloodied girl at his local train station, he doesn't know what to think. But once she tells him what happened to her, he gains a whole new perception of his world. Arden lives in pretty much the perfect setting. His family loves him, his future job is tailored to suit his talents, and he has a promising future with his girlfriend. He never intended for things to unravel when he finds a half-conscious girl in a pool of blood stowed away on a cargo train -- he just wanted to help her. But once she wakes up, he gets a lot more than he bargained for. She tells him a story of risk-taking, of discoveries. Of adventure, hope, and sadness. She seems to have more questions than answers. Answers he can't give her. But there's one thing Arden does realize: His superiors are hiding things from him. Things that could be their downfall. nor·mal /ˈnôrməl/ adjective conforming to a standard; usual, typical, or expected. Copyright © 2020 by @mel10rism This is the sequel to "The Differents".

"There are two things that separate us, perfection and imperfection..." What if a tribe was run by perfection? Where failure is no option. That one mistake could end a life. Positions are won by strengths and there are no such things as flaws. Take every mistake, tripping, falling, failing, and erase it all. In this world, there's perfection. Nothing bad ever happens - after all, perfection means flawless. Being perfect is the only way to live and falling short of that expectation is unforgivable. That is Citrus' world. There's no betrayal, no heartache, no mistakes, no sickness, no deaths, and no unnecessary battles that force her to choose sides. All that's waiting for her is the bright sun, shining its golden beams onto her. Home to all perfect cats: the Tribe of Shining Suns. A shining, dark world where the perfect roam. But what happens to those who don't shine? As long as there is a sun, there are always shadows. Citrus has always thought of herself as a proud cat and wrinkles her nose at the sound of Imperfects; cats that suffer and starve in the shadows. Those cats stumble and fail yet try to spread their seeds in fresh soil, lingering around the world like an ongoing sickness. These disgraceful beings continue to rise no matter how much the sun burns them, stirring chaos in her perfect world. Like any infection, she knows her life will be better when the disgusting ticks are out of her fur. All she has to do is slaughter her way through in order to achieve perfection, but fighting this disease may risk her own life and worst of all - imperfection.

Memory loss, chronic pain, tremors. These three characteristics of Darren Stratt's illness raise the difficulty of Darren's exodus from the United States, a country that has decided he is "subhuman" and "imperfect", just like anyone else the government finds to be mentally or physically ill (and even illness itself is subject to the government's definition). Darren has been running for months, now, making his way to Canada, Liverpool, Germany, and now... well, he doesn't know. All he knows is that he isn't where he wants to be: Queensland, Australia, safe and sound in the arms of his beloved Sara McKenzie. Complicating matters is the mysterious, terrifying Renewer fog that has been spreading across the world, created by strange bombs the United States has deployed. Buildings turn to dust, humans turn to monsters, and the sky turns a sickening purple when the fog is present. No one understands the Renewer; its creator, Damian Crane, is nowhere to be found.

To Stand Against the Light of the Sun by yannmaw
15 parts Ongoing Mature
Luxor is the perfect utopia, except for the fact that its King is experimenting on teenage war prisoners unbeknownst to its citizens. Solana has spent her entire life in captivity. She can't remember a time when she wasn't encased within the same four strikingly white walls, or being angrily yelled at, or violently tased, or poked and prodded like an animal behind bars. She can't remember what she looks like or even the sound of her own voice. So when she is seemingly rescued from her prison by one of the overseeing scientific researchers, she can hardly hide how ecstatic she is at being able to experience the 'real' world for the first time in eighteen years. Together with the researcher who rescued her, and his royally attractive nephew who seems to be hiding his own secrets, Solana navigates Luxor's unfamiliar futuristic society. However, her euphoria is short-lived as she slowly begins to understand the larger political scheme she and the others she was held captive with are part of. Because, despite what the King might have his citizens believe, Luxor is on the verge of collapse and Solana was to be the 'cure.' But now that she has escaped, there is no length the King won't go to in order to prevent his nation from falling. Started: January 1, 2024

In 2239, added as an ingredient for rat poison, a disease began to spread rapidly through the air. Decaying the bones it attaches to, inflicting paralysis and organ failure while its victims remain conscious enough to feel the pain that follow. Two years later, a vengeful ex-scientist released another sickness. Those who were infected suffered severe symptoms that would alter them into aggressive and animalistic creatures. These two illnesses quickly combined, causing a huge outbreak across the world and Wiping out almost 64% of the human's population. They called this contagious and infectious disease, "the Bliss." Eleven years later, after hundreds of failed trials, the Serpent department has created a solution: children who are immune to the disease. Raised within the boundless white laboratory walls, Adrian Bordeleau is cruelly exploited to develop a cure. As he grow up, a voice began to eat away at his soul. Gradually making him question what is keeping him from breaking out of the facility and destroy everything and everyone who dared to deceive him. Once you get a taste of power, you can't go back - My Deceiving Eyes is heavily inspired by the song Brutus by Buttress. As well as the Flare from Maze Runner, Deep Root disease from Gemini Home Entertainment, and the Grimace shake incident. [SECOND DRAFT]
