The year is 2789. Humanity is now an interplanetary species, having expanded outwards from earth over six hundred years ago, when Streamline engine technology was invented. Having conquered the entirety of the Sol solar system, our species explored further into the Milky Way, with massive overpopulation depleting the essential necessities for life in the core worlds. With starvation and disease running rampant, the inner colonies launched a mass exodus into the other solar systems in a desperate bid for these vital resources. This mad dash for resources sparked the war between the Frontier Colony Coalition and the United Earth Government.
After twenty years of fighting for freedom from the slavery and murder common on UEG controlled worlds, the FCC are all but exhausted. Only a single option remains; capture the High President of the UEG and use her to force the leviathan super-government to end the war. The mission is to be completed by a single operative, hand-picked by the FCC's military leaders.
This operative is Vyctor Cirus- one of the youngest, yet most skilled covert operators the FCC has to offer.
However, despite his best efforts, Vyctor will likely fail and be killed or captured on his mission. Even knowing this, he accepts the task before him. Though he will face many setbacks, there is one setback in particular that brings his mission to a near total halt: Valrie Jazmi, a UEG intelligence recruit fresh out of the academy.
As the two are locked in a battle of morals and logic on their travels, they face deadly threats and constant danger together, both fighting a war on two fronts; one against eachother, and one for survival. Vyctor and Valrie soon find themselves facing an impossible revelation... but will they be able to accept their fate?

Wattys Shortlist 2022 - In the shadow of a ruined world, survival comes at a cost. Decades after modified radiation bombs decimated the earth, the survivors of New Australia live in fractured Zones-regions ruled by scarcity, controlled by gangs, and governed by fear. The bombs didn't just destroy cities; they unleashed two devastating plagues. D.V.B, a deadly airborne illness, wiped out millions. But M.A.D was worse-a mind- warping disease that turns victims into violent, flesh-hungry predators. In the RedZone, where hope is a luxury and danger is routine, Violet Warrendale has learned to hide in plain sight. By day, she's the reluctant daughter of a prominent gang leader. By night, she's Viper-a deadly ghost in the underworld, wanted for assassination. Vi has only one goal: escape Lake Darling and disappear. For good this time. But when the military storms the RedZone and abducts everyone under twenty-eight, her plan shatters. Imprisoned in a Reproduction Facility-where survival means obedience-Vi must conceal her identity from the enemy. Worse, her cellmate is the gangster responsible for her brother's disappearance. With enemies on every side, secrets buried deeper than the fallout, and a rebellion brewing in the blood-soaked cracks of the system, Vi has a choice: stay hidden, or burn it all down. ...

L.O.V.E.
100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)Complete

Sentilia
Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351. She's always been fascinated with how humans used to live in houses, drive cars, and the fact that there used to be forests and parks everywhere. Now, after a war that nearly erased humanity, people are forced to live a strict, dull, communist lifestyle. Everyone seems okay with this way of life. Everyone except Maxine. Maxine had always been special; she was often able to predict events. How? She didn't exactly know...yet. When she starts having dreams about a tropical island where people live as they did in the 21st century, she meets the man of her dreams: literally. Her new boiling emotions bring her to wonder...what if it's a real place? When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination. Finding that island could mean finding the answers to her burning questions, and maybe even answers to questions she didn't know she had. However, not everything is what she thought it would be when she finally finds the island, and her dreams become a harsh reality. Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is. The Advisors, the ten women governing the world, want to assimilate the people of the island, not knowing that those people have an extreme advantage over them. Maxine also learns that her family has been lying to her about who she really is. Ultimately, when the Advisors come to destroy the island, she must face the fact that she is the key to the island's salvation, and embracing her rapidly developing abilities is the only way to do so.Complete
Stellar Nexus: Chronicles Across Shattered Realities
When the multiverse cracks, only the forgotten shall remember. Across an infinite lattice of realms, where wormholes carve paths through dimensions and stars burn with coded prophecy, a cataclysm stirs, an ancient, deliberate, and far older than time itself. The Original Continuum is unraveling. Summoned by a cryptic terminal message, seven chosen souls, Sol, Xairo, Caelith, Jacob, Kyle, Aris and Ryn, unaware that they are the last safeguard between existence and absolute collapse. Each bears a dormant connection to a Spirit, a spectral echo of their will, far weaker than a Conduit, yet potent enough to shape reality through combat, memory, and resolve. But the true storm brews far beyond. The Godly Conduits, eternal forces like Absolute Anarchy, Perfect Tranquility, and 0, have begun to stir. Once symbols, now sentient. Once anchors, now fractured weapons. These beings do not serve. They decide the fabric of spacetime itself. With the emergence of the Several God tier Orb, mythical artifacts forged before the First Collapse, and the resurgence of the Veltrian Script, language of the Titans and Aetherials, the past and future bleed into now. Realms are falling into Miasmia, and the Watcher of Phantomnexis has taken the stage, a being who deceived even the Annihilator itself. This is not a battle for peace. It is a war for continuity. A rewriting of meaning. To stand against the coming void, they must transcend what they are. Not champions. Not heroes. But concepts, forged in entropy, bound in memory, and risen through will. There came a time when the prophecy fell, when truth withered into its final testament. From that end rose the arch nemesis, the substantial antimony of all order, wrapped in the shroud of the ultimate miasmia, repeated through histories of Atlantis itself and beyond.
