Have you ever wished that you could escape your own reality? To be able to escape to a realistic simulation, a perfect world?
Throughout her childhood, Mia Baker has often wished to be someone else. To be rich. To be beautiful. To have a mother.
One day though, her wish is granted. Her father, an eccentric computer technician, has invented a wonderful, realistic new game, Glass Game, or the "glass". Here, you can create, explore, build. You can be anyone, do anything- provided you pay.
But there's a darker side to the glass. Addiction. Her father's new toxic nature. Nothing is really anymore. It's all on the glass. The world has changed forever. Is money and success really worth it, when you're living in a game?
And of course, there are the glitches. She didn't notice them at first, but now they are everywhere. It's not just slow loading, or a pixelated nature, too- the glitches are scarily real. Shaky, scary, falls that make her feel sick. And now, glitches are occurring in her OWN REALITY. 
Which begs the question...what if she's in a simulation herself?

She dropped out of school at the age of fifteen and began studying at home or at the local library to get to University.

Akropolis by hcedwards
9 parts Complete Mature
"Any thought you ever had; memories, desires, your fears and your dreams, are all recorded and stored safely in the Quantum Cloud for your eventual revival. Death is now merely a transitional period to the next stage of your existence. As a QUBIT (quantum processing biosynthetic), you will experience a life free of disease and suffering. Time is no longer your enemy. Regret is a thing of the past. Each new day brings the promise of endless possibilities, spent in the pursuit of your own happiness, guiltless with the knowledge that there are no longer earthly constraints to inhibit you. This is the life you have always wanted. Welcome to your new beginning..." Akropolis is a city at the end of times, a sanctuary where the brightest and best have been housed since the last Great War. A genome defect has afflicted the majority of the population and scientists are desperate to find a cure. In the meantime, man has found his own salvation in the form of the QUBIT (quantum processing bio-synthetic), an android that is capable of prolonging life almost indefinitely, and yet what makes them human in the first place has been lost in the transition. The ruling council believes that salvation is nigh, but whether that hope arrives in time is questionable. The city's future depends upon the actions of a few individuals, all of whom are struggling with their own mortality. Quentin is the boy who dreams of death. Mia is the tortured soul. Trey is the soldier that defines duty. Misao is the future of the ruling council. Claire is the girl with a secret that will rock the foundations of their entire civilization. Unbeknownst to them, the entire fate of Akropolis lies in their hands. Either humanity will find a way to survive or it will sink slowly into the sea of extinction.

A life where she doesn't get taunted and hit and torn apart by everyone who she has ever seen. But she would never swap, she doesn't want anyone to endure the pain she's gone through. So instead, she tries to get rid of it... Again. But much to her disbelief, she is saved by the people she would least expect. She learns secrets about them that no one else knows. She feels included. Cared for. And dare I say it... She felt loved. For once in her life, she felt truly happy to be alive.
