It was the year 3024 when the aliens came. They didn't fight us, they asked for a trade. Their knowledge of the universe for all of planet Earth except for one continent so humans could live there. Our minds, being as spongey as they are, wanted to know how the universe works, so we said deal. The aliens moved us to Australia, it being the smallest continent, so they'd have more space to do whatever they were going to do. Every month, they'd send us food and water, and supplies to build homes. But, they didn't let us build boats, because any human found anywhere else but Australia was killed instantly. People formed barriers, and thus Sectors were brought in. Meet Emily Rose, a vicious girl. She inhabits her own Sector with her two friends and brother. They plan on sailing to France, where the 'leader' of the G-Zone aliens is. They plan on killing it, and taking back the world that was once theirs. (I got the idea off of the V-Sauce video 'How Much Is The World Worth?')

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 :)
