*Post-Modern Literature
*Mature (Not Pornographic)
-------------------

Forty-two years have passed since the downfall of civilization began. Now there is nothing left in the world. Well, almost nothing.
The walkers who take care of themselves on their own, the scavengers who terrified the others, and the campers that even their names could not be mentioned...
In this world, one of the walkers has to go to a camp; what she needs is just some medicine for a sick child whose path she crosses. 

What could go wrong?

-------------------
A/N: This story contains complex ideas, sexual abuse, harsh language, violence and graphic depictions of many other unpleasant situations and events that can negatively affect the minor audience. After thinking for a long time, I decided to publish this story in the mature category. If you are under 18 or thinking such stories might break you, please do not read it.

A/N: This story is written for ONC-2021 as a novella. The genre is general/contemporary fiction and uses the 11th prompt "The child was afraid of the monster under the bed. Until the monster needed help", but since this is a post-modern story, it will probably take time for the prompt to reveal itself. So, please take your time and enjoy the story itself.

|WATTYS 2022 WINNER - HORROR| Shawn, a convicted criminal, never thought she'd see the sun again, let alone call another star system her home. When she's offered an out from her prison sentence, she embarks on a dangerous interstellar expedition along with 18 of Earth's most intelligent criminals. Their task is to set up a base on a supposedly habitable planet and prepare it for colonization. Although the planet has liquid water and a breathable atmosphere, it is believed to host only microbial life. However, upon arriving, Shawn and the rest of the colonists learn that assumption was grossly incorrect. In a brutal attack from rampaging wildlife, everyone but Shawn and four other colonists are killed. The five survivors retreat to the cavernous network beneath the ground seeking safety, but they soon come to a terrible discovery. These caves aren't ordinary caves, and they are no safer down under than they were on the surface. [][][] This was originally my entry for the 2021 Open Novella Contest, and it received an honorable mention! It has now been expanded into a full length novel. I used prompt number 53: "When wildlife starts rampaging, all the humans are forced underground. However, they come to a terrible discovery that being underground is no safer than being on the surface."

Supernatural creatures are real. They are a part of the world now, instead of hiding in the shadows. They want to belong. Will they? When Davyna's mother is killed protecting her from a vampire attack at their home, she vows never to be weak or unprepared again when it comes to ANY supernatural. But when her father is chosen to oversee the integration and safety of the human race within the new world, Davyna is forced to be in the absolute last place she ever wanted to be - and although she sees some good in these creatures, she struggles to accept being among them harmoniously, and chooses to close herself off to most. That is, until she meets a certain werewolf and vampire. As wars brew, secrets arise, and identities are discovered, will Davyna rise up and embrace her place in the supernatural world? Or will she abandon it all for a life of revenge and isolation, that's only filled with pain and intense hate? ______________________________________ [COMPLETED JANUARY 9th, 2021] [18+, some mature content/themes, sex, swearing.] [Sexual themed chapters will be labelled with a disclaimer, and have been written in a way that you can skip these scenes if you prefer.] [Kindness is greatly appreciated!

GOD WHY. FOR THE LOVE OF ALL GODS IN EVERY RELIGION PLEASE. This is a book about, Romance, Death, Gore, Anxiety And Fear. "Oliver We Have To Go Hurry Please!!" ...

SUMMARY: A witch who has been shunned by her people and the world is hunted down. Her birth was foretold "to bring blessings ... or death to us all." The risks outweighed the rewards so all witches agreed; if she were ever to appear she would be killed on sight. Her mother knew the risks but she loved her child even if she was destined to bring harm to the world. She knew her daughter would bless this world if only she could be accepted. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case so she whisked her newborn away and safely hid for 17 years. On the day of Astrid's 18th birthday, everything changed. She was betrayed and fleeing in the chaos she lost control and blacked out... "Wait where am I...?" [Hello host and welcome to the Training Island.

Special Agent Alyssa Caine has been tasked with the most important mission of her life: the assassination of the man who would bring about the end of the world. The only problem? He is already dead. A minor issue that is resolved in the year 2157 when a renegade group of scientists develops a device that allows to jump through time. They recruit the former special agent to send her back fifty years, to take just one man out of the equation, a minimal change with a predicted maximal effect on the fate of the world, and prevent a devastating war that has driven the last surviving humans to live in decrepit underground bunkers. Every action has a consequence. Alyssa is humanity's last hope, and her actions will determine the fate of the whole world. She is willing to sacrifice everything for a better future. But she soon realizes that the impact of her actions might be beyond her control, and beyond all predictions. _____ Highest Rankings: #16 in Science [06.02.2019] #36 in Dystopia [06.02.2019] #65 in FemaleProtagonist [01.02.2019] #71 in TimeTravel [06.02.2019] #1 in Paradox [28.02.2019] #1 in ONC2019 [01.02.2019] #3 in OpenNovellaContest2019 [28.02.2019] This is my entry for the ONC 2019! At first I thought I'd pick something a bit out of my comfort zone (so.... NOT SciFi for once...) to expand my horizon, but when I saw a prompt about time travel I was immediately inspired. Please keep in mind, all of this is WIP! The title, cover, and some of the content might change at any time... I have an outline and I worked hard to come up with a compelling and consistent story line, but due to the nature of the story (timey whimey stuff!) I might have to revise things a few times as I write. I'm grateful for any feedback and I hope you enjoy :)
