In search of a cure for a spate of overpowering nightmares, Dan embarks on a manic life-changing adventure that takes him along a path determined by a mixture of incompetence and good fortune. His journey begins with a visit to a sleep clinic where the sharp tongue of a resident nurse does more to raise his low self esteem than it does for his insomnia. Subsequently his life is turned on its head by the appearance of a mysterious old man who is able to transcend both the real world and his dreams. The man informs him that he has a gift—the ability to travel to his alternate selves in parallel universes, all made possible via subconscious connections in his mind. Suddenly his dreams open gateways to new worlds—worlds in which a war has been raging for many years and in which he, the fabled Nexus, was foretold to be a leading player. Sucked into the battle, he embarks on a quest through a daunting world in the hope of preserving his sanity, his identity and ultimately his life…All Rights Reserved

Conquer the Wasteland by IfritEnterprise

*Prologue* To be entirely honest with you, I never really considered my future. It's not like I needed to...right? Why would you care about jobs and your educational success when you could be scavenging for food, perhaps? I mean what use is your academic future in the apocalypse? Dramatic right? As I sit here, writing this down, I feel a little pathetic. Although the chance that someone would read my story is incredibly low, I can't help but feel a small glimmer of hope that someone will find it. It would become an instant best-seller! Who wouldn't read the first-hand account of a zombie apocalypse survivor? Even if that day were to arrive, I can guarantee that I won't be alive to see it. The world is a complete and total mess and we are the only ones to blame. Why do you ask? Well, why don't we take a trip down memory lane? First, people alone destroyed the earth with pollution, making it the ultimate playground for the undead. Second, we created the virus that single-handedly destroyed 97% of the human population. Wonderful, is it not?

The Bucket List by kfabes

This isn't another one of those sob stories you hear about when your mom sends you a screenshot of an article she found on the New York Times website. It's also not one of those clichés you read about the desirable boy and the perfect girl who fall in love and live happily ever after. Well, I guess half of that is true, because it's kind of a sob story and it's also just a little bit cliché. I'm Morgan DeAngelis, a freak with a terminal lung disease and a seventeen year lifespan. I never said I was perfect. Sure, being told you have one year to live is hard. It's what you decide to do in that year that's even harder. Some people travel the world, some people blow all their cash do whatever the hell they want, some people mope about it the whole time, and some people probably end it early, and take their lives before their time is up. As sad as it may seem, that's what I wanted to do, but I didn't, and I can say that my life changed drastically, for the better... I think... Anyway, here's my story, read it if you want, or don't. I really don't care. But, fair warning, if you do decide to dalve into the rollercoaster of emotions I call a story, you should know that it's a very long journey. To be precise, a journey that lasts a lifetime.

Temporal Tantrums by AnanthVanDerLekh

Who says that our personal perspective of reality is the only one... ... or the real one? What if travelling in time was possible for you? When would you go and would you be able to get back? If you met yourself would it really be you... ...or another person very like you? Book 1 of the epic series Tales of Strangeness and Charm.

You can't help but let a tear to slip down your flush cheek, allowing it to leave a warm traitorous trail down your face that cools and dries upon contact with the air around you.
