During an unlucky spell he passes through a wormhole, into a reality he is no longer considered a part of. With eyes on him, he must choose a path and take control of his future. But someone else isn't playing by the rules, and Luke must bring them down if he wants to make it out alive.

The Fate of Fractured Lives by VHdez01

Sarah remembers being reborn with amazing gifts. She knows why people were gifted their fantastic powers. She knows why women with powers were fewer and why their abilities were stronger. Sarah remembers how it all started. But she doesn't know why she has other people's memories. Reality had cracked. With her found family, Sarah tried to stop an enemy unbound by time and save a girl from becoming something dark and sinister. All the while she was keeping darkness from taking over her own body. Fate was against them and failure meant the end of the world and possibly the unraveling of reality itself. Were these things destined to happen or was there a plan even their enemy could not see? Sarah didn't know if this was the end of her life or just the beginning of the next one. The Fate of Fractured Lives Book One of the Anomalies Saga Chapters will be posted every week.

DESCENDENT [2.2] by Ambire

In a city torn apart by sectarian conflict, Hidayat stands out--a living contradiction, a soul that refuses to die. With every breath, he bends the rules of reality, blurring the line between what's possible and impossible. Haunted by the idea of his own destruction, Hidayat seeks not just survival, but a way to exist without destroying the world he yearns to belong to. His rebellion catches the attention of Yocha, the mysterious god of Unreality. Ensnared in a web of manipulation, Hidayat's life becomes a cosmic liability, his death the only solution to stop the chaos he brings. As Yocha manoeuvres through the complex politics of a world teetering on the brink of war, Hidayat's destiny grows dangerously entwined with her deadly plans. In this battle for control, reality itself is fragile, and the fate of existence hangs in the balance. [ Fifth Draft ] [ Word count: 90k ]

Hybrid: The Awakening by DuNdUnDUN2006

And with strange new powers, the teenagers struggle to live in the unfamiliar world they thought they knew so well.

Flickering Creatures | ONC 2024 Longlist | ✔︎ by SmokeAndOranges

When Bryony -- herbalist extraordinaire -- goes missing, Bella knows one suspect stands above the rest. The village's aspiring second witch, Daphne, comes from a family that's tried to take Bryony down before, and Daphne seems determined to carry on that legacy. For someone who's always been terrified of Bryony, she's a little too keen on looking into the disappearance. There's just one problem. Bella's insufferable fellow familiar thinks the kid is innocent... and he's been right about worse things before. If Daphne herself is to be believed, clues on the disappearance lead a whole lot closer to home than Bella would like. As the evidence mounts, Bella must choose to either stand by her values and the woman who raised her, or seek what might be a truth she would rather not uncover. Prompt #81: The town's witch has gone missing and no one is looking for her but her two familiars - a crow and a black cat, plus the teen who has always been scared of her. ❖❖❖ Written for Wattpad's 2024 Open Novella Contest.

The Global Fellowship: Prelude to The Infinitus Saga by ChristianeJoyAllison

HE HAS NO CHOICE. SOMETIMES, DOING WHAT'S RIGHT MEANS RUNNING AWAY. Earth was once in chaos, divided between hundreds of warring nations. Now, united in peace and maintained through a worldwide computer system known as the GRID, the Global Fellowship provides all citizens free access to food, housing, education, and medical care. In return, citizens allow the GRID to use their brains as temporary servers. Those who don't contribute are the disconnected, shirkers who live destitute and on the edge of starvation in a world where GRIDcoin is beyond their reach. After his parents' sudden death, Arthur Mallorey, a severely-disabled teenager living in the largest shirker camp in Central Continent, knows he has to find a way for him and his sister to survive. Battling pain and exhaustion, he looks for salvation in the very heart of the Community he was raised to fear. Ranked as high as #4 in Genetics, #8 in Global, and #2 in #EhlersDanlosSyndrome. This piece is a prelude novelette for my upcoming 2020 SciFi (cyberpunk), Dystopian novel - Infinitus. This book will also soon be available in print and e-book. All rights reserved.
