An ex-soldier clutching at straws after losing everything. One amnesiac girl with far too much power at her disposal. Three teenagers with superpowers making a living as vigilantes. One doomed city to test their limits...and push past them.
I don't own the Wormverse web serial. I do own my OC family. My friend 4eHeretic has a parallel story called Walls and Bridges. His is more of an after-action report so it'll be shorter than mine and more of a summary. I do not own the setting but I do make changes to canon for the sake of my own story.
As 4eHeretic suggested, so will I. I STRONGLY recommend that you read the Wormverse first. Everything will make much more sense that way.

The New Generation
"Our entire lives led us to this moment, only for us to lose in the end. We aren't a team, a family, we never were. We are just a bunch of puzzle pieces that were forced together but don't really fit." When it was all said and done, they all agreed, they were never meant to win. They watched as the world around them burned, a world they fought so hard to protect. In the distance, a tall figure stood with pride watching his chaos morph into victory, there was nothing left for him to do but watch his enemies perish in the flames. . . ---------- It's the fight they have all waited for their entire lives. The New Generation is ready to defend their family, their friends, and their world from Itri who will all but destroy it if he gets the chance. They know their parent's stories were the start of a battle, but they are here to win the war, as one, as a team. They are meant to work together to defeat their enemy. Ten people united by the most unlikely circumstances, five daughters whose futures are predetermined, and only one chance to make things right. It won't be easy, they must make allies, face new enemies, rely on one another and try not to die in the process, but when new truths come to light, a divide is placed between them as their trust for each other falls apart. Friends become enemies, one team becomes two sides and their enemy only gets stronger in the process. Once upon a time, they thought they can do anything together, but how do you change a future that has already been seen? How can you rely on someone you no longer trust? How will you save an entire universe if you can't even save yourself? You can't hope to win if you're already destined to lose. . . but then again, you can't win at all unless hope is present and that's what matters most. ********** An Aeterian Story- Final BookComplete
The Skylar Experiment : The "X" in Apex
---Book of the Month 2018 winner in the sci-fi category from awardofthemonth2018--- ---1st place winner in teen fic Writer's Circle Awards by concinnitycircle--- A/N: This book is action-packed with a sprinkle of mystery all wrapped in a science-fiction teen drama! I know. It's quite a mouthful. Cue the summary! *** Skylar is born with predetermined odds against her. She's been isolated since birth from her true nature and her peers in the name of an experiment. A change of plans cause the people in charge to order her relocation to Oakwood, a microscopic town swarming with mutants like her. They silently follow her journey as Riley is confronted to strange locals, a boy that hates her guts and nightmarish monsters lurking around her house.

Some cussing and violence invovled. THIS IS THE FIRST BOOK OF A SERIES AND IT GETS PROGRESSIVELY DARKER π Disclaimer : My story is inspired from Jennifer Armentrout's series Lux (basically, credits to her because this wouldn't exist otherwise). There are many differences but also several similarities. The plot isn't centered the same, either way. I just have fun writing and twisting up my favorite elements.Complete
Unseen
A living weapon in a gilded cage... When the head of the Couvillion Syndicate dies unexpectedly, his ruthless and brilliant daughter Yvette should be the unquestioned choice to take his place. Or that's what Yvette thinks. But her father's people still see her as a child. They think they can take what is rightfully hers. They don't see that she's every bit as cold-blooded as her father was. She's heard of a group that trains assassins with unnatural powers. A living weapon who can turn invisible at will sounds like just the edge she needs. But this organization won't just give one of their assassins away. As always, Yvette will need to take what she wants-by any means necessary. To Delta-Nine-308, who has never left her training compound, Yvette's gilded cage is as good as freedom-and freedom is terrifying. She longs to go home to her familiar cell. But living with Yvette means soft beds and cookies and the novel concept of free time. It means late-night conversations with her desperately lonely captor, who has started confiding in her as if they're friends. She's never had a friend before. She doesn't want to give all this up. And all she has to do to keep it is kill whoever Yvette wants her to kill. Unseen is part of the Mind Games universe, a series of standalone stories about ordinary humans with superhuman abilities and the people who want to use or destroy them. This novel is 55,000 words long, or about 180 pages.Complete
Different stars, same sky
Nova was born to be a weapon. Trained as an elite soldier, Nova once led a team that never came back. After a mission gone devastatingly wrong and a rampage that made even the Guardians fear her, her memories were erased. Now, she's seventeen again-at least on paper-living with distant relatives in a city that doesn't feel like home, attending a militarized academy built on the ruins of her childhood. She remembers her name. She remembers nothing else. Rebellious, haunted, and lost in the blur of a life she doesn't recognize, Nova starts seeing things-echoes of the friends she lost, pieces of her old self. The Elite Guardians are watching her, some suspecting she's faking it. Among them is Kade-cold, unreadable, and strangely familiar. And there are others: students, soldiers, ghosts, and enemies who seem to know more about her than she does herself. As Nova begins to unlock terrifying truths about her past, her powers return-and so do the questions: Who was she before they erased her? Why did her team really die? And what is she truly capable of now? In a world where secrets kill and memories lie, Nova must choose between the girl she was, the weapon they made her, and the future she wants. A story of broken memories, forbidden power, and a love that might cost everything.Complete

(REWRITING) The Skylar Experiment : Coveting
"Three weeks. That's how long I got to have drama-free. I'm not sure what is happening to me or to Oakwood. Nothing's the same since I rolled into town and it just keeps getting weirder. Suspicious agents in suits roam the streets without an explanation. They're staring straight at me. The new Chemistry teacher is NOT who he says he is. I'm doing things I never thought I could. Like, mutant-level things... Lauren, Luc's dead twin sister, hid something from everyone. Something important that may have lead to her demise and that could lead to ours. Hunters are in town. I never knew four words could contain so much dread and terror. I'd rather deal with the Wanderers. I'm on the brink of a breakdown. I need help..." BOOK #2 IN THE SERIES! Ignorance is not bliss... In the wake of ridding Oakwood of Wanderers, other dangers come creeping in and they're somehow linked to Luc's absent twin. The past returns to haunt the mutants in inconspicuous ways. Riley's life is yet again in jeopardy, but this time she's not alone. Luc and his family are all thrown into the teetering balance. More secrets are uncovered. A trap dawns on them all. Invisible threats start crawling from all directions. Who is the real enemy? TW : behaviours of depression and PTSD are displayed. I don't name them, but one of the character will be struggling a lot. It may not be suitable for everybody. Other adult matters are briefly included, but nothing explicit or intense. Rewriting specifications : the main points of the story and end of the book will remain the same, am just going to change a few ways of getting there and adding some extra spice. Feel free to pause the read until the REWRITING sign disappears.Complete

Let's travel with these alternate worlds where they all unite together and share their experiences together in a newly built school
Hybrid: The Awakening
Nobody expects something supernatural to happen to them. Those kind of things only happened in comics. Fairy Tales. Unrealistic dreams that you'd fall asleep to, silently wishing for them to come true. At least, that was what these three teenagers thought.

After each finding a strange alien artifact, the teens are suddenly thrusted into an intergalactic war. Alien species everywhere are trying to hunt down the most powerful weapons in the galaxy.

Instantly, they are the most popular people in the galaxy. And for once, popularity couldn't feel more like a curse. Fighting grudges, fear, and distrust, the Chosen humans must travel to the one place on Earth where they might be safe. And with strange new powers, the teenagers struggle to live in the unfamiliar world they thought they knew so well.Complete
Static
{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: 3.17.16Complete
