After the fall of once a great country, a new country was born from the ashes of the destroyed. It was no longer the brilliant 50 stars, but a country that became one. Under a new name and new requirements all citizens are to take a legionary evaluation that will determine where they'll be placed. There are two departments: D.O.A. and D.O.S. Those with scores higher than average will be placed in either of these departments. The rest are to live their lives as if this evaluation never happened. They are injected with a serum that makes them willing to tell the agents (dressed in white) anything. When they wake up they won't remember anything. 
The nation wants its own people to defend their country and to keep Legion safe from war, spies, bombings,  killing, etc. Legion's citizens are willing to risk their lives to keep their government and country safe.

L.O.V.E. by denissebloom04
30 parts Complete
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)

Tanglawan, a new land that emerged from the ruins of what was once the Philippines, continues to flourish, as facilitated by the Exorbit, a government-owned microchip introduced to a person's body. Everyone feels safe and well taken care of, with their fates, including their love lives, already predetermined. Everything was in place, until one day, Pia, a Keeper-in-training, came across something she wasn't supposed to see, in the midst of her desperate attempt to get together with Agui, her first love. Pia is convinced that Agui is her real love and her not getting together with him was the reason why all relationships she tried entering into always end on a bad note. There's only one problem in their getting together, though-her Exorbit malfunctions when she uses it with Agui, and their compatibility and dating prompts don't show. Determined to find a solution to what she thinks is the only thing keeping her and Agui from getting together, Pia finds herself entangled in the operations of Mulat, an underground movement of great thinkers who wanted to break free from government control brought by the Exorbit. There, she meets Aki, a dreamy, idealistic guy who also makes her heart skip a beat. In this post-apocalyptic society where choices are limited, Pia found herself deciding not just for herself but also for the future of the entire Tanglawan. Will she make the right choice? --- Highest Ranking Achieved: # 2 Dystopianfuture - January 22, 2025 # 3 Surveillance - January 22, 2025
Unspoken by ChrysanthiumAEmerson

It has been almost 250 years since the nuclear World War VI that wiped out the majority of humanity ended. Since then, a government has risen, calling themselves the New Society. It's leaders have told the citizens that their only goals are to achieve absolute perfection, and to repopulate humanity. For almost two hundred years, the people have been told that life outside of the domed society is impossible, because the nuclear and atomic bombs destroyed most of the earth, and tore holes in the atmosphere during the war. The leaders say that the society is all that's left, and justice must be served. It was this that led to all descendants of WWVI leaders to be placed into institutions, where they are tortured and trained to serve their future masters. They are termed entertainers, and at the age of eighteen, they are auctioned off, left to the mercy of their owners. Entertainers are essentially concubines, but any relationship beyond slave and owner is strictly forbidden, and punishable by death. It's a risk many people are not willing to take, but there are exceptions to every rule. Nevaeh Williams has a past unlike the majority of the other entertainers. She's forbidden from sharing her past, but her experience has led her to both fear and despise the New Society. After two years in the institution, she's auctioned off to a young billionaire. Noah Ivanov is withdrawn and mysterious, hiding a secret of his own. As things heat up between them, a shaky truth comes to light that forces them together. A person from their separate yet intertwined pasts comes seems to haunt their every move, and they must secretly fight against the New Society, in order to discover their government's true plans. Can Nevaeh and Noah overcome the odds they face, and bring justice to someone they've both lost? Will they fall in love in the process? And most of all, will they be executed for learning of the New Society's true nature?

Keep in mind this was my first story. Imagine being trapped in a world that decides everything for you -- how much you eat, how much sleep you get, who you love, where you live, even when you die. So when Evelyn is chosen along with 47 other "young leaders," what will happen when she meets them? And when the impossible happens, what will happen to those young leaders? (Think Hunger Games mixed with Matched mixed with a little bit of Divergent, as those were my inspirations as I wrote)
