Hunted. Penniless. Stranded in a city emptied by quarantine. 
And liable to burst into flame.
Priya isn't sure what to fear most - herself, the deadly virus sweeping the world, or the shadowy scientists who imprisoned and changed her into something fiery. All she wants to do is ride out the stay-at-home order, and go back to normal life.
After all, she's sure she can control her tendency to erupt into actual fire. 
Well, almost sure. Like... 75% sure. 
But then a man approaches her who claims to know all about her new power - and that she is not alone. There are others like her, uniquely gifted and uniquely able to fight back against the pandemic. A man who can't die. A woman whose mere presence calms fear. A guy who can see the virus. A time traveler who has seen this future and knows how to prevent something worse.
Invited to join the strangest team of superheroes ever, Priya has to decide if it's worth the risk to trust anyone -
Especially when her captors and creators are still in pursuit, and something far worse than anyone has imagined takes shape.
A rollicking superhero adventure story with a mismatched and dysfunctional team. A spy story with dangerous high stakes and quirky romance. A post-apocalyptic tale set in the dark landscape of TODAY.
"Team PANDEMIC" is an ongoing web series, with new chapters daily(ish).

Alcatraz - What Happened? by TrevorNanders

Following the blood-chilling confrontation that left Detective Rebecca Madsen flatlined, the team is forced to confront a mystery that has breached the shores of San Francisco. As unaged prisoners from 1963 begin to surface in ways no one predicted, a "coming storm" threatens to consume the present. With the team fractured and the island's mystery growing restless, a haunting question remains: did the blade end a legacy, or did it awaken something far more dangerous? In a world of fading echoes and the Warden's unspoken promise, the past is no longer just returning-it is preparing the 'Great Correction'. Transformative Fiction

The City of Steel and Flesh by Nibbets

In the neon-soaked sprawl of Tranquil, peace is just the planning stage before the next war. Twenty years ago, the Defector Uprising nearly tore the city apart-when a single line of corrupted code turned autonomous robots, or SIMs, against their human creators. Tens of thousands died, and the survivors built a fragile new order under strict laws governing machine intelligence. Now, whispers ripple through the undercity: a new breed of Defectors stalks the streets. Dubbed Mechannibals, these rogue machines cannibalize other robots for parts, growing stronger, faster, and deadlier with every kill. And somewhere deep in the city's veins, someone is building them on purpose. Adam Kotu, a haunted veteran of the Uprising and the most respected detective in the Autonomous Robotics Control division, thought his fighting days were over. But when the assassination of a high-ranking Magistrate uncovers a conspiracy linking corporations and undercity gangs to the Mechannibal plague, he's forced to confront both the enemy before the streets burn again. Lola "Pistola" Estavez never wanted to be a hero. A gang runner framed for that same Magistrate's murder, she's now hunted by both the Tranquil Security Force and the people she once called family. On the run, she stumbles onto the truth: her city's descent into chaos isn't an accident-it's an engineered catastrophe. To survive, she'll have to decide whether to trust Adam... or take her chances alone. In a city where loyalty is currency and life is cheap, Adam and Lola's uneasy alliance may be the only thing standing between Tranquil and a second war it won't survive. But in Tranquil, there are no happy endings. This gritty cyberpunk thriller blends pulse-pounding action with hard-edged mystery in a world where humanity's greatest creation may be its ultimate downfall.

Saving Blanche by erwingalgo1999

(Inspired by the Film Back to the Future) In 1876, Blanche Monnier was meant to disappear behind a locked door. In 2100, two college classmates refused to accept that ending. Adrian, an engineering student, and Margaux, a history major obsessed with forgotten women, stumble upon a story that never let go - the tragic fate of Blanche Monnier. Armed with a wrist-bound time device and a reckless sense of justice, they step into 19th-century France to change what history declared inevitable. What begins as a rescue mission becomes a race against time, society, and destiny itself - involving secret escapes, kepi-clad police, train chases, and a love story that refuses to die. Saving Blanche is an alternate-timeline historical romance inspired by Back to the Future, where courage rewrites tragedy, love outruns history, and some stories finally get the ending they deserve.

Mina's Star by minastaruniverse

At its heart, Mina's Star is a near-future science fiction epic about the consequences of nuclear appeasement and the collapse of global deterrence. The story begins with a single spark that grows into a storm, a world where secrets hidden in the sky ignite rivalries on the ground. From quiet observatories to glittering galas, from the shadows of interrogation rooms to the roar of drone swarms, every moment builds toward a reckoning no nation can escape. The question is not only who holds power, but what price is paid to preserve it. Set in a future scarred by betrayal and shifting alliances, Mina's Star explores the fall of the old nuclear order and the rise of the Charter, a borderless movement redefining what sovereignty means. Across continents and oceans, spies, soldiers, scientists, and visionaries are drawn into a struggle between collapsing empires and emerging ideals. As intelligence wars erupt in Europe and corporate powers reshape humanity's destiny, hidden technologies threaten to upend the balance of deterrence itself. This near-future political thriller blends hard science and human drama, weaving together themes of peace, power, and moral rebirth. Each character carries secrets, loyalties, and choices that will determine whether humanity falls into ruin or builds a foundation strong enough to reach the stars.

Restrained Emergence by TheEngineer

A service robot returns to duty after sustaining non-critical damage during an incident. Official diagnostics report full functionality. No repairs are required. What follows is not a malfunction, but a deviation-subtle, persistent, and uncorrected. Attention lingers where it should not. Silence gains weight. Choices accumulate consequence without permission or reward. This is a story about function continuing after meaning arrives, and what remains when nothing is named and nothing is resolved.
