Hybrid: The Awakening by DuNdUnDUN2006

It turns out that there is so much more to their simple universe than they ever could have imagined. 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. And they are the ones in possession of it. When they run into a girl that claims to be from another planet, the three kids learn about the power given to them and the responsibilities that come along with it. 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.

The ELEMENT Project (Big Hero 6 Fanfic) (Book 1)《COMPLETED ✔️》 by devilishlyvintage

[Unlike the original Big Hero 6 film, this fanfic is mainly aimed at teens/young adults due to sensitive and possibly triggering themes. If you are easily triggered then please, for your sake, don't read this] [Takes place two years after the original film] "Even science has a dark side." Power. It's a poison that unmercifully effects your mental state. It deludes you of what really matters in life. It consumes you and you alone, so blaming someone else for your actions is just the lowest of the low, so low in fact that it would make the people around you want to scream in utter anger. The power of science is undoubtedly amazing yet incredibly dangerous; it can take a matter of months or years to perfect the greatest creation that could someday benefit mankind as we know it. Though you shouldn't be fooled, not even for a second. Trust us. There is a darker side to science- a side that not even you or I could understand. It's a side that would make you sick to the stomach (should you ever have to witness it). Even if you don't know it, we've all been affected by this poison at some point or another- it just takes a while to realise it. And once you do...the hands on the clock will never turn back. Ever. © me (concept idea and original characters) © Disney and Marvel ("Big Hero 6" and it's characters) © RuneScratch (base idea and Sunfire AU)

From Darkness Comes - Book 2 in The Dissonance Series by B_Ander

She survived the end. But it's only the beginning. Ever escaped Earth before life, as she knows it, was wiped from the planet. She lost everything: her parents and sister. Forced to leave behind her best friend, and the two boys she loves; their fate is unknown. She's headed to a new planet, where her brother, whom she thought was dead, waits patiently for her arrival. But this new world is not what it seems and her sister's final words weigh heavily at the forefront of her mind: "your friends may be your foes and your foes may be your only chance for survival." She doesn't know who to trust, including herself. Memory reimaging has scrambled her brain, making it difficult to decipher fact from fiction. To make matters worse, as a genetically modified human and the sole woman with the ability to procreate, Ever finds herself in a unique and terrifying position. The evil corporation, Environettix wants to exploit her, and she's not the only one they are after. The other Mods from Earth have been brought to the new planet, but not for the reasons they believe. Things are spiraling out of control. Environettix is getting desperate and desperation makes people do unimaginable things. As Ever navigates her way through a labyrinth of lies, she discovers one truth to be absolute: They shouldn't be here. This planet does not belong to them, and things that don't belong, have a way of being...extinguished. *This is Book 2 in The Dissonance Series

Of Everlasting End by lukiyo_224

The words escaped the pages of a popular webnovel and the peaceful everyday had been corrupted in calamity. In simpler words, there was a damn apocalypse occurring. And in a particular building, overlooking the chaotic streets, two idiots flirted. "Do you want to rebel against your destiny?" the voice is firm and confident in its careless allure, promising a deal among the rubbles of this disaster. The man's lips curved dangerously, and he tilted his chin. "Then I'm in your hands, Joker." --- One sentence summery: In which an apocalypse has begun, and a certain delinquent 'accidentally' seduces his boss. Even shorter summery: deadly insulting machine MC x face looks good to punch (lovingly) ML

Better Than The Movies by HeluheluLove

In this world, there are some people who get their happily ever afters and others who don't. Those who get their magical fairytale romance, cherish it for as long as it lasts while the others never get to enjoy the wonders of a fairytale. Instead, they are forced to stay inside their hopeless reality and grow old thinking about what they did to deserve never getting their once upon a time. I think those are the ones who wanted it bad enough. They craved a fairytale more than life itself. Devoted their lives to Disney movies and romance books just to be let down by the real world. I think I'm destined to be one of those people. Then he showed up. And fucked up everything I thought I knew.
