In 2020, large advancements in technology have been made- people's lives are made easier, and it seems that nearly all the problems of the world have been solved. However, science turned to genetic engineering a while ago, taking test subjects and modifying their DNA and genes to test the limits of the human form, how much they can withstand, and most importantly- how much power they could awaken.

Suddenly, a worldwide announcement is made-- they're running out of volunteers, and requests that any high schooler who wishes to "become something more beautiful" donate their body to become a test subject. It seems nothing changes after this, and everyday life goes on as normal...

...except in Roseacre, Indiana. Oddly enough, nearly every high school is volunteering subjects to the town's local scientific facility. Roseacre Academy is the only school that refuses to send test subjects, and for some reason, they become the target of all the other rival high schools.

The story follows Gail Pennington and Lucille Hertz as they try to protect their school along with its students and faculty from "awakened" students from the other schools, ones who have already undergone testing and survived. The ugly truth behind the testing is gradually revealed as they try to defend themselves. Will they be able to protect their school, themselves, and their futures?

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)

About 20 years ago, a disease swept through decimating the majority of the worldwide population with type-O blood, both negative and positive. Very few were spared the debilitating and fast killing disease, and the ones who did survive were sought after for their unique blood and antibodies to the disease all in the name of science. Doctors around the world scrambled to figure out the disease, but one Stephen Mitchell was an intern at the local hospital at the onset of the outbreak and was a part of the discovery and eventually the cure. It seemed his life would be then filled with interviews in magazines and on tv, and great fame... but someone else collected on that. So, instead of becoming famous, Mitchell became a high school teacher and assistant department chair to Harry Kristiansen, the science department chair, at a boarding school for overly privileged kids. Jobs given to them seemingly out of nowhere. Things seem normal, the day-to-day boring with students coming in and out of the classrooms. But their blackmailer is interested in saving his lover, not normality. In order to save her, they need to find the very thing that has eluded medicine for close to 20 years, finding people with type-O blood to harvest. The very thing that should be easy, is proving difficult for Harry and Mitchell until the addition of a third partner. This partner seems to be a Godsend, able to find participants to appease their blackmailer, until he is no more. Fearful of their lives and for their families, the two men try to figure a way out. One wants to tell and be over with it, the other wants to use a different tactic. Yet telling the truth will cause more people to die. However, not telling the truth causes more people to die. Can Harry and Mitchell make it out with their sanity and their lives?
