Earth's carrying capacity was reached in the year 2023. Starvation was rampant, diseases spread like wildfire. The world was coming to an end. A solution was made in 2027, after 4 years of death. Every year, millions would be chosen, for the benefit of the people, to die at census. They'd throw you into a Wasteland to live out the limited time of your life. It is now 3000. I am Addy Scott, a poor 17 year old. I've witnessed 17 censuses. People I knew would die every year. Especially because we were poor. The poor, the unattractive, the mentally and physically handicapped, the elderly. Those are the people you didn't want to be during the census. Those are who were picked.

City X ([BxB])
"City X: The Society Where Everything Is Just Perfect!" Yeah, right. I see that slogan everywhere, no matter where I look. It's all a lie, an illusion. Everyone believes that it's perfect, but they don't know the workings of the inside. I was told by someone I met years ago what really goes on inside the government building, and since have been moved to the poorest part of the "perfect" city. With every passing day, I feel my reality slipping away, fading into darkness and despair, no hope in me ever being normal ever again. I remember the day this all started like it was yesterday. I was a small five-year-old boy that had the intelligence of an eleventh grader when a new student joined our class, myself having to be the one who had to take him around the school... ~~~ Originally Completed On: November 19th, 2017 Published On: August 1st, 2018Complete
Escaping the Monster's Embrace (OLD BEING REWRITTEN )
(Currently being rewritten under a new name The Claimed) Everything changed when they came out of hiding, terror spread across the world as people began to question if our presidents and our global leaders lied to us and weren't from the same race. The Beasts blended in amongst us as if we were the same, except humans didn't have the same predatory instincts and we couldn't change our forms like they could. Soon after we learnt that we weren't the only species people began going missing. Some were unlucky and taken as something that the Beasts called a Mate that one word made fear spread throughout my veins, I would rather sell my soul than have one of them mutts chain me to them. Six months went by before the government, that was un-tainted by this vile race began to take action into their own hands contacting other countries and militaries causing the great war to happen, sending both my parents off to fight for our rights. Only one of them came back, two months was the longest we lasted before we were overpowered by them. Six years of living in this dysfunctional environment and my hatred had never dwindled. Some people still believed in god and had faith in him, I didn't know what I believed in but I prayed like everyone else that I would get through another day without hearing the soul crushing word 'Mate'.

The Altered.
guys please don't read this anymore lmao i write totally differently now💋 _________________ In a future where humans are genetically modified -- 'altered' -- at the age of sixteen, the world has been, until now, a safe place. Without changing a person's personality, undergoing the Alteration perfects their appearance, IQ, and even their immunity to diseases. No human passes the age of sixteen without being Altered. In the blink of an eye, things change. An ominous message is sent out to all of those below the age of sixteen, providing precise instructions that suggest they flee. Simultaneously, a deadly virus starts to spread all about the world, attacking only the Altered -- every human over the age of sixteen. The virus eats at the modified human brain, and soon the Unaltered begin to realise that the Altered are losing their minds. Home is no longer safe. Friends and family turn on one another, losing control of their own minds and bodies. The Unaltered aren't safe. Even if the virus isn't attacking them, the ones with the virus are. Set on a pristine, futuristic Earth, this is the apocalypse like you've never seen it before. (Rated mature for graphic depictions of violence and mild language.)

Lover Eyes
BBS X Fem. Reader ~~~~~~~~ There's always a certain way that society works. There always is- No Matter what, society sets what's Good or what's Bad. Well, let me tell ya a little bit about my society. I live in Los Santos, California. Everything is normal, crime is still a thing but instead of gangs running the show on the streets...Well, It's Mafia's who run these streets. Cops are bribed, territories are made, allies are strong, traitors are within- All Of It. Some Mafia's are just full on psychopaths who want to rule the whole entire city but get too reckless and end up wiping themselves out. Other Mafia's are wiped out from the inside and out. Some are untouched by anyone due to their power or how much control of territory they have. Well, My little mafia has a long way to go before we get wiped out due to our status not being so high in the ranks. I'm Y/N and My Mafia is called The Blackout Mafia and you'll find out why soon. Our world though exposes Love through Eyes. It's called, Lovers Eye or Love At First Sight. Scientist have researched for years why human eyes just form red beating hearts through their eyes but some people just say it's their "Soul Mates". Cringe... Anyways, yeah, Mafia's and a mysterious love eye thing that has been around since the making of man!.. What Could Go Wrong? ~~~~~~~ First Published: March 26, 2022 Hi（￣︶￣）↗
