Humanity has failed. The Earth is littered with trash; masses of plastic and cardboard pile the ground, waste floats in the oceans, and the air is thick with toxic chemicals. Humans have now retreated into submarines, floating with the current, collecting valuables in trash patches whenever they can.
A camera catches one of these scavenger's interest, offering new light on what the world once was and what the world could be.

When I Hear The Calling
What would the human race do if the earth could no longer carry us in her arms? A story set in a futuristic timezone where life on earth has reached its breaking point due to overpopulation, overconsumption, and rising sea levels. But luckily, Astro-scientists have discovered an Earth-like planet that can sustain our people. We began an expedition. * * * Our eyes, Foro and his sister Lorra, who is one of these researchers, are the lucky few to venture through the cosmos and land on this mysterious planet. Little did they know, they wouldn't be so lucky as they thought.Concluida
The Day We Left Earth
If we stayed there any longer, we would have died. Earth was no longer our home, but instead a barren waste land from which we had to escape. Its calm blue oceans were replaced by big empty pits, and the green grass which used to cover our planet has now died, leaving all ground we tread on brown. The sun was getting too close to earth. It was going to explode soon, meaning we would have to leave. Either that, or die on what we called home. Not everyone left, not everyone was saved, but most of us are here in our new home. It's a huge space station called 'Earth Resides'. All of us who made it here, though, refer to it as our last resort. My names Mia. I've been here nine years. And I know the truth. ------------ Project ConstellationsConcluida
Akropolis
"Any thought you ever had; memories, desires, your fears and your dreams, are all recorded and stored safely in the Quantum Cloud for your eventual revival. Death is now merely a transitional period to the next stage of your existence. As a QUBIT (quantum processing biosynthetic), you will experience a life free of disease and suffering. Time is no longer your enemy. Regret is a thing of the past. Each new day brings the promise of endless possibilities, spent in the pursuit of your own happiness, guiltless with the knowledge that there are no longer earthly constraints to inhibit you. This is the life you have always wanted. Welcome to your new beginning..." Akropolis is a city at the end of times, a sanctuary where the brightest and best have been housed since the last Great War. A genome defect has afflicted the majority of the population and scientists are desperate to find a cure. In the meantime, man has found his own salvation in the form of the QUBIT (quantum processing bio-synthetic), an android that is capable of prolonging life almost indefinitely, and yet what makes them human in the first place has been lost in the transition. The ruling council believes that salvation is nigh, but whether that hope arrives in time is questionable. The city's future depends upon the actions of a few individuals, all of whom are struggling with their own mortality. Quentin is the boy who dreams of death. Mia is the tortured soul. Trey is the soldier that defines duty. Misao is the future of the ruling council. Claire is the girl with a secret that will rock the foundations of their entire civilization. Unbeknownst to them, the entire fate of Akropolis lies in their hands. Either humanity will find a way to survive or it will sink slowly into the sea of extinction.Concluida
Scrapper
Set in a future where the world is underwater and humanity is forced to salvage materials from under the ocean. To facilitate this endeavor Submersible Salvage Retrieval Vehicles (S.S.R.V.) are developed to brave the hazards of the ocean. These S.S.R.V. are also used in competition for sport. Natnet is a small diving company that wants to win the annual S.S.R.V. international games and they seek the help of a legendary S.S.R.V. called Scrapper to give them the chance.Concluida
Runaway World
During the final decades of the twenty first century, a rogue brown dwarf star passed through the solar system and its gravity threw the Earth out of orbit around the sun. Two hundred years later, when the atmosphere has finished freezing onto the surface, explorers from the last refuge of humanity venture out to see what's become of their world. Things looks bleak. Mankind faces a future of huddling in whatever warm refuges it can make for itself until the Earth's core goes cold, but then a discovery is made. An opportunity exists for mankind to leave the planet and find its destiny among the stars, but to do so requires an all or nothing gamble and losing would mean the end of the human race. Some want to take the gamble. Others don't, and so conflict and violence breaks out as the survey teams explore a planet transformed out of all recognition...Concluida
Book of the apocalypse
"Every book is written by someone. They write it with their love, their hate, their life, their passion, their dreams. Never take another person's work too light." What would you do if you were the last human being on an earth filled with flesh eating monsters and happened to stumble upon a strange book that seems to draw you in? Would you read it? Or would you leave it? A youth who calls themself Don, has found themselve in this situation. After finding a strange book and meeting someone calling himself Don's 'imaginary friend', our protagonist's life of constant survival has been turned upside down. Content warning: This story contains body horror, psychological horror, depressing theme's and gore. Also spiders play a part in this story. Reader discretion is advised.Concluida
Under the surface
The earth is just a dry leftover from what it was earlier. No wonder, people escape on other planets, with a surface just made out of water. Cretecae. Ivy is hoping of a new life on the whale capturing ship, the Pequod. It's a safe and comfortable place, like a new home for her. But after a few months, things started to change... A Story (based on the Roman of Morton Rhue) with funny, but also serious and romantical scenes. Have fun reading! PibsConcluida
ESCAPE FROM THE FUTURE
Less than forty years into the future, most of mankind has elected to upload themselves to digital nirvana, where they can live as many lives as they care to in parallel, in as many different fantasy worlds as they desire. A small percentage of humans, however, are loath to give up the mortal coil. These last holdouts are the escapees from the future. The question is, for how long? Will Mother, the sentient internet, be content with gentle prodding to upgrade and uplift? Or will she resort to more coercive means? Has she already, unbeknownst to the final holdouts?Concluida
.Not Just An Android.
It's strange to think there was once a past where humans didn't have androids, they are everywhere now. Humanity is far more advanced than what you and I think: androids have human faces but aren't alive they are simple machines. Right? (For reference, yes this idea for the book came to me from the Detroit:Become Human game so there will be some similar stuff for those who played it) (This is an old story, don't expect too see my current writing skills in them lol) -------------------------------------- I HAVE NO MONEY!!! Stop offering me to draw me comics of my stuff, I cannot pay you... Tell me if it is free fanart because you want to draw my stuff and be included, if not that and money mentioned, I WILL mute you bc I ain't paying.Concluida
