Waka Tifi was occupied by the British for one hundred and fifty years as a protectorate.  During WWII the British turned the island over to the United States.  Teuila Arihi is the island Chieftess who runs the independent government of the United States protectorate.  

Natural barriers have protected Waka from thermonuclear testing fallout.  Now people on Waka are getting sick.  Is it radiation sickness?  Could it be cyanide or some other poison?  Or is it some virus from outside the island?  

The newly formed CIA fears a different sickness is running it's course on Waka.  Communism.  Teuila has imposed high taxes, refuses applications of Christian missionaries to establish themselves on the island while supporting a local island cult.  Teuila has invested those high taxes into socialized healthcare, and government distribution of food, clothing, and housing.

Waka Radio and Waka Press are both run by Americans and allowed free speech.  Small businesses such as the Victory Cafe, independent fishing and farming, are all encouraged.  Large corporations outside the island are used for services, but aren't welcome on the island.

The CIA sends an 'observer' to the island.  Who is actually there to destabilize the economy and displace Teuila.  Teuila proves to be smarter than the CIA expected.  With help from a outsider of the island from the United States and a Americans already on the island the 'observer' is disposed of as well as the criminal organization he used to try and destroy the island's government and it's natives.All Rights Reserved

The Analyst's Nightmare (Mission Impossible 4) by FroggieShroom4

"This message will self destruct in 5 seconds." He turned to look at me, a quizzical expression covering his features. "No, no, no, no! Don't give me that look I know what that means!" I said, defensively. What is it that one does hours before when the Kremlin's intact but once you leave having failed your original objective, it implodes causing the entire world to heap its destruction onto your shoulders, in turn making Russian agents track you down over a series of nations, borders and buildings which simultaneously reveals your actual heritage and the whereabouts of your Mother of whom, you'd been lead to believe died a long time ago? Nope didn't think you had an answer to that. And frankly, neither do I. I manage to get myself so caught up in much of this tangible work that I don't even have a plan of action. I just go with the flow I guess. It's either that or I'm incredibly talented and charismatic. I personally, think it's the latter but I'll leave that decision up to you. The IMF will stop at nothing to get the answers even if the rest of the organisation has been disavowed, having had Ghost Protocol initiated. But that begs the question, can a certain analyst aid them in their efforts? Or is he too, hiding something which goes deeper than anyone initially thought? Join Miles and the rest (or remaining) members of the IMF as they travel the world to stop a nuclear explosion from damaging humanity...

Blown Away by Ana_s_Writings

When Summer needs a fresh start, she chooses Hawaii to get just that. Things seem to be going Summer's way: she had an amazing job, friends that are "ohana" to her and someone she loves deeply. But sometimes, even the brightest day gets a bit cloudy. That's exactly what happens to Summer. How will she clear the clouds and bring back the sun?

Starting World War 3! (A Hetalia Fanfic) by GNxDDD

Despite it being well past sunrise, the house was dark. I had woken up with a start, hearing the sound of a car below but now as I lay awake, I was in even more of a panic. "Don't make a sound." She whispered as she clasped a hand over my mouth, "The house is surrounded. They're going to kill us. They're going to kill the countries." ... It is gradually nearing to two decades since Taishya Rovanoff ran away with her twins and despite the media taking the world by storm, great tensions are underlying once-happy friendships with the nations. When a young and perhaps too-curious state comes across some files, she decides it is her own personal mission to solve the missing-twin mystery. This, however, proves more challenging than not when old scars are reopened leading to a series of events which brings the world to its knees. With forgotten prophecies and mysterious attacks threatening the lives of once-strong countries, the world is inevitably falling apart. So how is it, with all the chaos going on, a missing lady, a set of twins, a naïve child, a sickly teenager, a frightened mother, a celestial body and a queen all bring about the darkest hour the personified nations have ever faced? How is it that the threads of the earth are slowly undoing to bring about the start of the end of the world? ... DISCLAIMER: The story, all names, characters, and incidents portrayed in this production are fictitious. No identification with actual persons, places, buildings, and products is intended or should be inferred. The only things that I own are the plot, Taishya and any other OC's I might decide to include. If I did own Hetalia, I wouldn't be writing this...actually, I reckon I would be on an island, basking in the sun and drinking a pineapple cocktail whilst my servants brought slices of nectarines. Hetalia and it's characters belong to their rightful genius owner, Hidekaz Himaruya...(seriously, that man is a god!).

The Terminus-Under the sea by hansisherly29

It was 2050, the year of the misery.The world War 3 happened, a nuclear war which ended up making the earth inhabited. But luckily there were survivors. There was an organization called 'Octagon Veranda' situated on a lonely Island which was covered by a special Nano cover which was supposed to last 300 years and it's a shield against radiation, bioweapons and chemical attacks. This organization of scientists was created to survive the World War, which could've wiped out humans from Earth. The communication system within the island was advanced and had no connection with outside to prevent AI attacks. It was protected in each possible way which is why humanity still lasts. It is 2201 now. Our little island is the only place humanity can survive on the earth but sadly it's a small island. The population is rising. So now we have a lot more problems to survive than radiation. There are two parts of the island. Inside and outside. Simply heaven and hell on the same island. If you can get inside you are more than lucky. If you get to live outside, you better pray for death. Inside the island is the place where the Octagon Veranda, the main buildings and the city are situated. Octagon Veranda, we work on eight sectors that help humanity to survive. Each sector has a chancellor, and together that's the Octagon council. Edward Sallow - Nano technology sector Kane Johnson - Chemical sector Kirstein Evens - Mechanicals and communication sector. Jessy Terco - Environmental science, Biology and human studies sector Elsa Blake -Medical sector. Bell Bostic - Security, exploration and social work sector Penny Browns - Hydrology and Farming Sector Jupiter Terco -Astro sector

Touch Me - Radio Fucked The Video Star by GhostsIntheshadows

Be advised; This is gonna be a lot. You're walking into a dark and sexy place. It's gonna be fascinating... but legit, fucked up. This isn't just an Alastorxvox smutty fanfic. I'm taking Alastor to MANY different places, with many people. Alastor was back. Again. You thought this was the first time he had disappeared? No, no... this isn't the first time. And Vox? No, he's not okay either. Not only did he have to watch the most brutal violations of a person live streamed on tv and over the radio. Every soul in Hell saw our heard what Alastor did to Lucifer. They were confused, scared, pissed, and/or doing things to make the situation significantly worse. But Alastor... Alastor was different this time. He was close to figuring something out. Something important, and however unpleasant what he had in mind was, he knew he'd have to cross some serious lines. And while he was gone, he had upped his extremely charming game. He knew he would break his own values and codes. Along with constantly trying to hide who and what he was. But that was then, while he was gone. Down here, though... There were no laws to break. There were no limits, no repercussions... What, would be end up in Hell? Yeah... already there. And while the hotel was standing, more or less, far more sinister things were happening there behind, mostly closed doors. Nothing was off limits this time. He'd use that sexy charm, he'd have Vox back to begging him on hands and knees like a dog in heat crying out for a fuck. A different monster walked alongside friends and enemies, and another darkness had been awoken in Alastor. No one saw it coming until it was impossible to unsee. And by then, it was way too late. * *You've been warned that if you have any kinda issuess around noncon sex, mature themes, mental health issues pertaining to certain types of BDSM or, well pretty much anything you can think of... find a different story. Abandon all hope, ye who enter here...

Gate: The Advance of the Ten Powers [ Finished ] by MNL_AAF

Discord: https://discord.gg/3N584EEFXx The Year is 2043, and the World has been the most peaceful, ever since the United States left NATO. They left after the new president in 2021 announced that NATO is out living its real purpose and that it is hindering the United States from its true ability, while also leaving due to something costly that some nations of Western Europe have committed to the country. Soon after, the United States faced a level of Economic and Technological Growth that would be perceive Unobtainable, even in the US's grasp. But, after 2032 the US President decides to form an Alliance with the World Powers, such as China, Russia, Brazil, and India. They gained 4 new members, Australia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and South Africa, and, in 2035, officially formed the New World Superpower Defense and Prosperity Treaty Organization. They have remained the most unchallenged, and the most powerful alliance since the creation of NATO. And this new alliance created a Era of Peace therefore unimaginable by Human Comprehension. But that Era of Peace will be challenged, as 2 Gates that lead to another world, open and create a war of Dimensional Proportions. Will the Order restore peace and bring Democracy to the new world? Or shall Earth fall to Chaos once more? Cover has been made by: @Javlarvafan Thank you, for the cover This book has been discontinued, I am putting it back up for the people who wanted it

Project Terminar by bri72182bri

(Book Two of Experiment Number 7218. Do not read this summary or book if you have not read Book One) I listen closely through the static on the radio, trying to hear the emergency broadcasting message. An electronic voice repeated over and over, "This message is transmitted to you through the North Carolina Police Department. It is advised to stay indoors and to remain inside if at all possible. Have enough food for one to two weeks. Do not come in contact with anyone outside of your household. This message is transmitted to you through the North Carolina Police Department." I scoff to myself. I know this will not be over in a mere two weeks. - - - - - Terminar; The Latin word for Terminate. Definition: To bring to an end. Brittany Slater was free. She had finally escaped the island that she now calls Hell. But there were so many loose ends. Why had her father destroyed all of his research? His factory? His life's work? Why had he given her a chance to live? Well, she got her answer. Upon arriving to North Carolina, she was thrown right back into Hell on Earth. Grounders, Savages, what were once innocent people, they now all roam free. Her father told her the Experiment was over, and he was right. It was time for the Project to begin. To take effect. And no one could stop him. He'd turned the world into a pyramid, and he put himself and his own government on top. He'd activated Project Terminar.
