"Liberty! Freedom! Tyranny is dead! Run hence, proclaim, cry it about the streets"- Julius Caesar, Shakespeare

Martin Christopher Desmond Blair has always been and followed the authority and has never decided to question the authority, The Republica until now...

Antoinette Blair, the sweet, quiet and submissive daughter of Martin has always been quietly critical of the Rebuplica, but perhaps never on this scale...

Peter Hamlyn, the mysterious and captivating con-man with deep digs in dirty espionage business, who has been assigned with Martin to crack down on arms company suspected of helping the rebels group "The Coup". But who knows what lies inside...?

Nobody questions the rule of The Rebuplica in the dystopian society of Europe but is not the story of a dystopian society with its anti-heroes, but the rise of the heroes over one.

Apex High : Rise of the Elites by writerofnew
5 parts Ongoing Mature
20 years ago, an alien fugitive named Vitam crash-landed on Earth. Once a ruthless war leader who betrayed the wrong intergalactic powers, he barely escaped annihilation. Seeking protection, he concocted a twisted plan: use Earth as a shield. He created the Apex Serum, a potent gene-altering compound meant to produce powerful warriors to guard him. But the adult humans he tried to mutate proved useless-the serum didn't work on them. The gas he used for mind control interfered with the process. So, Vitam pivoted. He made them breed. The children born after exposure to the gas were different. Stronger. Evolved. They began to show signs of extraordinary abilities-glowing eyes, super strength, elemental control, shapeshifting, ice manipulation. These were the Elites. Raised in secrecy, trained in combat by their own brainwashed parents, the first generation was unknowingly forged into soldiers for a war they didn't even know existed. Now in 2025, those children are 18 years old and in 12th grade-the first Apex-born class to reach full maturity. Apex High is in its fourth year of operation, with younger classes just beginning their journey. Publicly, it's a world-renowned institution built by billionaire philanthropist Vitam Chase, training future "superheroes." But behind the illusion of honor and heroism, Vitam watches... calculating. Preparing. Because the aliens he once betrayed are coming. And he's going to need every Elite soldier ready.

{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16

38 parts Complete

When the inevitable World War III broke out, no one expected it to last as long as it did. After two years, a meddling scientist decides he'd had enough of the destruction between and within countries. He sets his mind to a dark place where ruthless, indestructible soldiers are possible, and he makes his fantasy reality. For the first couple of months, it seems the experiments are acting respectively, and many of the fighting countries' disputes are solved merely because of their intimidating presence. But playing with the laws of nature is a dangerous game, and nearly always ends in defeat. When the experiments steadily grow independent and realize the power they have, controlling them is out of the question. And now they're running rampant in the streets, lurking around every corner, hiding in every shadow. Humans are untrustworthy of each other, sticking to the rule of every man for themselves, which doesn't at all help the chaotic world they now live in. Evelyn Baxter believes in having your own back; that is, until she meets one of the experiments not quite like the others. -- cover credit: me (manip credit: hazstylestrash on instagram) -- -- trailer credit: brookieismyname -- -- started: January 31, 2016 -- -- finished: May 17, 2016 -- All Rights Reserved © 1DLover121
