After World War III triggers a series of nuclear worldwide catastrophes, the Earth's orbit around the sun is shifted, creating scorching summers and ice-age winters that blend into each other within a matter of just a few days. The extreme climate change along with the terminal radiation levels that flood the planet kill off any living species unable to adapt within a matter of a few short months. Earth, as a result, has become a non-stop hostile environment where any remaining life form, plant and animal alike, has evolved to kill. Inevitably, mankind's only hope of survival lies uncertainly within the children, who have the most potential in adapting to survive in the new, almost inhabitable world. 
But just as the world around them is changing, the kids begin to learn more about the terrifying changes going on deep within their own bodies; evolutionary changes that in the original world would've been deemed impossible and superhuman. But they aren't alone.
A sinister entity that has been lurking in quiet existence since the dawn of time is awakening. Something is causing the changes in humanity, accelerating the evolution of the world, causing things even nuclear fallout would have a hard time explaining...
The first in a breathtaking saga of humanity's youngest battling the darkest corners of there existence, both inside and out, Gavin Zane's 'Shift: Horizons' will have you looking at the world in a whole new way.All Rights Reserved

生存进化: 启示录 by Seraphinellaria

In a world where civilization has collapsed, monsters roam the earth, and trust is a rare commodity, one survivor holds the key to evolution." When [Main Character's Name] wakes up to a world ravaged by apocalyptic forces, he discovers an unexpected advantage: the ability to level up. With every battle fought, skill acquired, and danger conquered, he grows stronger in ways no other survivor can. But as his power increases, so does the attention from hostile forces, both human and inhuman. In this brutal world, every encounter is a test, every decision a choice between life and death. To survive, he must evolve - faster and more ruthlessly than anyone else. But when alliances shift and enemies multiply, he realizes that surviving the apocalypse means more than just leveling up - it means confronting the darkness within himself. Will he be humanity's last hope or its most dangerous threat? "Upgrade or die - this is the rule of the new world."

When the Sun Begins to Die by Thatonefnaflover

Seventeen year old Cadence Buds is a normal teenager in a dying world. Well, the world isn't dying, but the sun is. It has been dying for several years now, but the effects are finally starting to come about. The sun has even been changing color. The government has been working on a plan to save a portion of the human population for quite some time. There are so many problems with the sun dying. The oceans will evaporate from the inevitable explosion, everything will be dark and nothing will be able to grow, the world will freeze over, everything will be destroyed. The sun is also giving off toxic radiation while it dies, making the world especially dangerous. The government's solution to this problem is to build a radiation proof dome over a large area. There will be synthetic heat, light, and seasons. The cost to enter such an oasis is very expensive. It is hundreds of thousands of dollars per ticket. However, there is another way to get in. Once the sun dies many will die with it. It might even vaporize part of the planet in its blast. No one knows for sure. But the world will need a larger population. You can earn your place in the dome if you agree to have a child to save the human race. This obviously only applies to women. Now remember Cadence? He is biologically female. He has been on testosterone for two years and is trying to transition in this world. Unfortunately that is horribly expensive where he lives. His family however is more focused on saving their lives from the dying sun. His parents had just enough money to afford his sister a ticket. She could not have children because she was barren. Cadence however could have children if he wished, but he didn't. Having a child meant undoing all of his hard work. He is told that in order to survive that he must have a child within the next two years. Two years is a long time, but he never wanted to have children. What will Cadence do once his two years have come to an end?

Infected Realms by JesseLeighty

**Infected Realms** *The end of the world isn't always what it seems.* A routine sleep study turns into something far more sinister when a group of participants begin experiencing unexplainable phenomena. What starts as an ordinary experiment soon spirals into chaos, as reality itself seems to shift around them. Strange events, impossible memories, and a deadly threat emerge, tearing apart the very fabric of their world. As society begins to unravel, a small group of survivors must band together to confront a terrifying new reality. The infection is spreading, but no one knows how or why. What they do know is that nothing will ever be the same again. In a race against time, they must uncover the truth before the world as they know it falls apart. But some questions might be better left unanswered...

Beyond MxB by Shifting2wolf

3518 A.D. Exactly 1500 years ago, Earth had been pushed to its limits and threatened to collaps on itself if we didn't act in time. Mankind didn't know what to do anymore and had declared our home doomed, our days numbered. That was, until the supernatural society decided to step up and take actions in their own hands. Creatures we thought never existed suddenly appeared out of their secret societies to safe Earth, to erase our mistakes and begin anew. They succeeded but parts of the world vanished for centuries due to the climate being completely out of the normal before it settled again and left the world at peace again. But not for mankind; all the other races had grown to dislike us, hate us. A witch hunt ensued and now only few of us are left. I've been running all of my life to remain free and alive, to survive and be as happy as humanly possible. My name is Thorn and I'm part of the last humans on our planet. Sadly, I'm not entirely human...

The Vordox by read_immortal

This story is an outcome of a drastically declining future. When humanity was completely lost and there was no one left on Earth taking care for it or others. Humans have become soo busy in their own lives that they have completely forgotten about others and even other lives on Earth. So many species are now extinct because of them and even though life is almost over we still not able to see the right thing. If we had seen things in the right way the right perspective we would've have alot to share and alot to give . We would've had inventions quite earlier the 22nd century but interestingly we were losing everything.....

Beneath the Shadowlanders by ManderRitzert

We knew something wasn't right from the moment we awoke. It was like something was missing - a part of our very souls - and we couldn't sense the deficiency, no matter how hard we tried. A hundred million eyes adjusted to the dark all at once, all surprised to be awakened so soon. We ran through our checklists of limbs and senses, drawing ourselves out of our dreams piece by piece. Some went back to sleep, unaware, unbothered, too tired to notice the difference. Some lay in bed, too anxious to stand until the light of dawn crept through their windows at last, and they were sure the monsters in their closets had gone back to sleep. Some leapt from their slumbers, more keenly aware than others that the missing pieces were important. But we didn't know. We couldn't have. Not until we found ourselves standing in the light and discovered: We no longer had shadows.

Snow by jule009

After an apocalyptic event that thrusts the world into a new ice age, Calestia - a 17-year-old girl with a strong will - must learn to survive on a land infested with gangs, guns, and distrust. ***** Nobody knows what day it is anymore. Nobody knows the month, the day of the week...and the only way to tell time is by the slight change in the color of the sky from grey to black every twenty-four hours. If a day even is twenty-four hours anymore. The planet is dead. The people are dead. Snow falls down upon piles of bodies like the ash of a volcanic eruption. Except, the snow doesn't stop. It never does. It continues to fall and fall until you wonder if it is even possible for another flake to come down and land silently in your hair. But it does. They do. There are few survivors of what the remaining have started to call the end of the world. The Apocalypse. Few who are still brave or scared of death enough to face the torture that is living. I am one of those survivors. Book One of the Snow Series Highest ranking: #3 in Sci-Fi Watty's Shortlisted
