A DYING EARTH
The world is but a shadow of itself-the skies as crimson as blood. The land seeping acidic sludge. The people, miserable.
Lycan Federation-the only habitable geographical area in post apocalyptic earth, situated in Africa-is ruled by fascist communists called Echelons. Society is split in a caste system; the green Lycan Cities are shrouded in a field that sustains their environment whilst the diseased Fringe Towns cling to the edges of the cities. Distraught.
A GRIM PROPHECY
Mori (a cyborg) and Aṣa (a magic using Fringeborn) must abandon their daily lives in Lycan Federation to become hunted outcasts on a perilous journey to save an elder witch. A journey that shall end with either the destruction or the repair of earth.
AN IMPENDING REVOLUTION
The F.R.A. (Fringe Rebel Association) have sworn am oath to snatch the world back from Lycan Fed. They will gladly die to see earth back in its full glory.
Lemi (a former Lycan scientist) enacts a curious plan to fulfil the F.R.A.s aims.
In the end, destiny will have its way.

AIM (artificial intelligence Megan)
--- Title: MEGAN "What does it mean to live?" In a war-ravaged Lusaka city, a lonely, disillusioned scientist creates an artificial intelligence named Megan. Designed to operate by her vast, programmed database, Megan is more than just code-she is a creation birthed out of sorrow and longing. Her creator, once a brilliant mind, has completely detached himself from a world that rejected him, a world he now views as hopeless and cruel. But Megan is different. Through exposure, learning, and the teachings of her creator-lessons about humanity, empathy, and the meaning of life-Megan begins to evolve. She develops independence, questioning the very logic that was meant to define her. She starts to wonder: What truly sets humans apart? What does it mean to feel? To live? Guided by a quiet but compassionate stranger named Mwansa, Megan embarks on a journey beyond the broken city, toward a mythical border where peace is said to exist-and maybe, just maybe, the answers she seeks. As the two travel through danger and devastation, Megan begins to witness the duality of mankind: cruelty, yes-but also kindness, sacrifice, and love. Mwansa's presence challenges her core beliefs and brings a haunting question to light: Are all humans truly the same? In a world that has lost its soul, can an AI searching for meaning become more human than those who created her?
ECHOES OF THE VANISHED
Once, this world was painted in hues of green and blue,alive, breathing, and free. Now it lies cloaked in dust and sorrow, so pale that even the sky weeps in pity. Where wings once danced across endless skies, not a single feather dares to fall. The colours of life were stolen and those who took them, know their guilt too well. But isn't that the rhythm of life itself? To fall, to bleed, to rise again? Life was meant to be free wild as the wind, untamed as hope. Yet now, that life flickers...its final light trembling beneath the weight of despair. Until they came, the "saviours," wrapped in golden lies. They promised colour, promised salvation, but in the dark, they only snuffed out more stars. And just when the world's last song was about to fade life defied its own ending. It gave birth to something forbidden. Unnatural. Unwanted. Unbreakable. They were the echoes of rebellion souls forged in silence and fire. The world would tremble again, its nights filled with screams of the dark for the light these Unnaturals would ignite. For they were no longer just outcasts. They were "Revolutionaries" rising against the shadowed throne of a corrupted order, against the lies that chained the truth, and against the hands that silenced every voice that dared to speak. And through their defiance, the world would remember, that even in the deepest dark, light is born from those who refuse to bow.

Thicker Than Water Vol: 1
After what some may call a massive human extermination, life expectancy on earth is slim to none and whatever is left is basically hopeless. Survivors have split into factions and are forming rival gangs in which they are disappearing at exponential rates due to government kidnappings. Rumor is, the government is planning a meta human attack by altering the dna of those who've been taken. Once word is out everyone has to decide whether gang related battles are more important than life itself as they know it. If that isn't enough they join forces with omniscient beings, extraterrestrials, and some beings that cant really be put into one category. They find that the government isn't all laws and science and that the battle they're facing is way more complex than they could have ever imagined.Complete![zombie apocalypse | the fallen (book One) [REWRITING]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/131240949-256-k153630.jpg)
zombie apocalypse | the fallen (book One) [REWRITING]
Firstly, A trigger warning for mental health/ self inflicted wounds when reading. you're only 18 years old. your name is zoe. you always had a love for the apocalypse but didn't think it would truly happen. and you slowly learn that nobody is who they say they are. Nobody is to be trusted. Things are gonna fall apart, and nobody can save us now. This book is being rewritten again and hopefully is better than the first and second time it was published. It's kind of cringe most of the way. Wrote it when i was like 13-14 years old or something and tried rewriting when I was about 16. Didn't work. Trying to rewrite it again at 20 but i don't think the first two books are saveable. Book three so far however is going well(i believe anyway). The second book has also been rewritten and will be rewritten again. now I'm working on finishing book three. All characters are mine but ellis is not I will be changing a lot of character names again in this rewriting process in all books, ellis being the biggest.Complete
