"The Fulvus Law - One is not to voice any opinion that conflicts with the Official Controllers' views. The Virens Law - One is not to question the authority the Official Controllers have over oneself. The Livens Law - One is to abide by the laws at all times and be able to distinguish between what is right and what is wrong."
Life should be simple enough, just three laws to follow. But what happens when all you long for is freedom of speech? What happens when you're tired of being controlled? What happens when breaking one of these laws could land you a death sentence?
'Time' is a short story I composed for a school English assignment. One day, I'm planning to turn the idea into a novel. :)

The Fatal Assignment
In a world where the line between right and wrong is almost impossible to see, a secret government program assigns assassins known as "the Blades." Each Blade is assigned a target, called a "Point," and they have exactly three days to eliminate them. If they fail, the consequences are brutal. Tasked with eliminating their target within a perilous three-day window, the Blades face the dire consequence of failure: either the Point is given the ultimate right to revenge, or the ruthless government steps in to execute the assassin for non-completion. With a thrill-inducing countdown ticking away, every mission becomes a high-stakes battle where only one person can survive. But not everything is as clear-cut as it seems. Some Blades start to question their orders. As the oppressive pressure mounts, ethical dilemmas and surprising connections unfold, forcing assassins to confront their own humanity. Loyalties fracture, secrets unravel. As the clock counts down, the Blades face impossible decisions. Should they blindly follow orders, or risk their own lives to do what's right? In a system designed to break them, they'll have to figure out where they stand before time runs out. In "The Fatal Assignment," A twisted game where survival is the only prize. Chosen from the forgotten corners of society - the desperate, the skilled, the expendable - they were given a target, a weapon, and a countdown clock. Failure meant death. Simple, brutal, and terrifyingly effective.
Everything Starts
Being able to kill someone at the flick of my wrist is not a power I could have chosen for myself had I had the option and a dangerous trek through a mysterious elven realm is also certainly not something I would have expected to occur during my first year at university, but here we are. Life, love, friends, family, and legacy have always been separate to me; however, those lines are now beginning to blur. I'm not sure I can handle it all, but I have no choice because I am Alora Undergrove. And it is my duty to save the realm. PSA! This is my first full story and all suggestions and criticism is welcome!Complete
Auras
"Some things are worse than death." Keep your head down. Don't cause a scene. And never make friends. These are the rules I have to live by to survive. After Vykens, mutated and soulless vampires killed my parents, I know they will come for me next. As an Aura, I can manipulate the light within me, the same ancient light Vykens feed on. It's supposed to be a sacred power, one used only for good and to help others. But if I want to survive, I'll have to defy the Auran Council and learn to use my rare ability as a weapon. Now I'm caught in something even bigger than I can understand, with a power I can't wield, and no one I can trust, except, just maybe, a mysterious stranger who's captured my heart, making him the biggest danger of all.Complete

The Progenitors
Hello Wattpad community! This is my first novel here, and I can't wait to get started! Welcome to NaNo land! The land filled with hundreds of thousands of would-be writers insane enough to write a book in a month, but capable enough to make that happen! ^^ 50,000 words, here I come! __________________________________________________ Hallen Forist lives in a world without rules.

Ideas are just like wildfire - they can be started on a whim, but once started impossible to put out. Can Hallen stop this change, or should this change be stopped? Hallen may be the progenitor of a new age - but is this an age worth living in?Complete

The book of life: Evolution of my self through incarnation 33
I am not a guy who likes to talk about his self, but the purpose of this biography is not to present my self to other people. There is a good possibility I am going to die around the age of 50 and therefor incarnate once more on the surface on Earth (living up to the age of ≈35). Thus, I am writing this primarily for my self in that person, so that person can recognize its self in this person and learn more about the past of its self. However, at least some information here might be of some value to others too.Complete
