The second birth of Humanity
Lockdown. Quarantine. Pandemic. Precautions. Going insane. That's our lives in 2020. Because of the virus. But how would it be if we never find the vaccine? How woud we adapt to that? How would we live? As I already said on my other stories, English isn't my native language so I apologize for the mistakes you'll probably find. Hope you'll enjoy it! :) •Officially published and finished on April 17th, 2020• All rights reserved, no copyright will be tolerated.Compleet
"Like In Fairytales"
[Completed✔] "Like in Fairytales this story has princesses and prince with their endearing passion and eternal love and compassion. People who aren't selfish but kind and think of others. People who are perfect." Well I could say this but then I would be lying. This is not a story about perfectionism but the opposite. Where the characters realize that their is as much horror in the light as there is beauty in the dark. Where they learn the only way you can describe life is that it goes on. That love is not finding a soulmate who tames your wildness but someone who runs wild with you. That the only way out of this labyrinth of life is through it. That it takes more than a pulse, a working pair of lungs and a pumping heart to call a homo sapien a human. It's a journey of people, being pretentious and perfect, to being a hot mess. Life may be safer at the sidelines but the real game is in the playground. .... STARTED ON 18TH JANUARY 2020. ENDED ON 19TH NOVEMBER 2020 ..... It's a new project I shall be working on. The updates may be slow. Sorry. It is kind of a spin off on my 'Cole' Series. That book was supposed to highlight the misadventures but it turned into a Fairytale. Let's find out what it is 'like in Fairytales'.Compleet
The Altered.
guys please don't read this anymore lmao i write totally differently now💋 _________________ In a future where humans are genetically modified -- 'altered' -- at the age of sixteen, the world has been, until now, a safe place. Without changing a person's personality, undergoing the Alteration perfects their appearance, IQ, and even their immunity to diseases. No human passes the age of sixteen without being Altered. In the blink of an eye, things change. An ominous message is sent out to all of those below the age of sixteen, providing precise instructions that suggest they flee. Simultaneously, a deadly virus starts to spread all about the world, attacking only the Altered -- every human over the age of sixteen. The virus eats at the modified human brain, and soon the Unaltered begin to realise that the Altered are losing their minds. Home is no longer safe. Friends and family turn on one another, losing control of their own minds and bodies. The Unaltered aren't safe. Even if the virus isn't attacking them, the ones with the virus are. Set on a pristine, futuristic Earth, this is the apocalypse like you've never seen it before. (Rated mature for graphic depictions of violence and mild language.)

The Multiples
At lightning speed I threw open the covers of the bed , checking for any trace of missing clothing ; Every ounce of my fiber, of my being was yelling at me to get out of here ,to run as fast as I could and never look back. I guess in a way , it serves me right for being here again. I was weak. I was too weak to even stand. Watching all the eyes in the room fall on me and my shaking hand , I almost hesitated. But I didn't think. And that's the problem. **** Olivia Davis was no ordinary preppy teenage girl living off of her father's fame and fortune. Living from one shopping spree to the next , riding the best and newest car. Infact , she was the exact opposite of who her father wanted as the princess of his multi billionaire company. She was loud . Cold. And had an attitude that would put her grandmother to shame . She was nothing anyone expected from someone who graduated high school with honours . So what if her graduation gift was the news that she has a fiancé ? Not one . But TWO ! None of which she had a say in what so ever . But they say that two is better than one right? *started 18 June 2019* *finished 26 March 2020* *edited 9 April 2020*Compleet![To See You Again [UWMA AU]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/242003113-256-k829280.jpg)
To See You Again [UWMA AU]
« Alright, guys ? What do you think about past life and reincarnations ? » Dean was taken aback by Win's word toward his two friends. Who would ask such questions in the middle of the day. But honestly ? He was interested in their thoughts and chose to remain silent. Both Tom and Yong Gi were rendered speechless and didn't utter a word for some time. Yong Gi was knitting his brows wondering when the topic had changed. « Are you talking about the things that you see in the movie ? I mean like ... Avatar : the Air bender or something like that ? » « Without the power of air but you're getting close yeah. » ----- This is the real first fiction I have ever tried to write. As it is taking quite some time to be finished, I didn't publish it yet but would like to receive some positive advice and opinion on it too. Be aware that I am going to touch on some difficult subjects such as psychological and physical violence, even if not too deeply. My purpose is not to hurt anyone and so hope you won't see it as a personal attaque but rather a simple reference to possible events in life. ----- Began : 05/2020 Published : 09/2020 Finished : 22/12/2020 ---- This is a work of fiction and has nothing to do with any real event or person. It all started from a question and has the only aim to answer it. It is very loosely based on fictions and drama's characters or public personality's personality. I merely used fictional and real characters' names for identification purposes. I do not own any of them, credits go to their respective original owners. Credit to the rightful owner for the characters pictures, it has been taken on Ohm, Prem, Boun and co's social media ^^.Compleet
The Eternal Glass Ceiling :: The Neo-Reconquista
Transcending the boundaries of the past, present and future. Maturing from a credulous scholar to a proficient professor. Evolving from a mere human to a benevolent deity. Behold the story of the young Moor who was immaculately conceived to be the ambassador of the Gods, the diplomat of the Divine Council, and the restorer of the balance. The year is 2050. Due to the devastating effects of the Great Global Cataclysm and the airborne plague pandemic. The entire world has descended into a post-apocalyptic state of desolate underdeveloped wastelands, unable to preserve human, plant or animal life. What is left of the human population is coerced into a highly advanced dome-shaped society to "ensure a more suitable living condition and the safety of all humankind". Unfortunately, the remaining members of humanity would soon realize that they had been lured into an autocratic totalitarian hellscape in which they cannot easily escape.Compleet

COMPLETED ✔️✔️ "I don't want to argue with you, Z." Karim gritted out. "Stop calling me that, Karim." Zaira growled. "Do not refer to me by my name. You'll refer to me with my title. We aren't even friends to begin with." Zaira glared and Karim glared back with the same intensity. "Give him to me willingly and I won't send this any further, Z. I'll even give you the chance to see him. I'm being generous even for you. So just take my offer." Karim said calmly. "You've got to be crazy. Why on Earth would I give him to you? What do you even want him for?" Zaira said angrily. Karim exhaled. "I see. My lawyers will be in touch with you soon. They'll try to settle this privately with you. But if you still decide to be stubborn then we will meet in court in the coming weeks. I won't be so generous then." Karim turned away without waiting for her to speak and walked out of the house. He shuffled through the snow which got into his shoes. He hated snow. The car door to the back was already opened for him to enter. "Let's go. And get my chief attorney on the line." Karim told Ali. "Yes Sir." He closed his eyes and inhaled deeply before exhaling. And with the escape of breath from his lungs came a lone tear from his eye. For the first time in a while, he allowed the tear to drop. ** They knew they were paired from the very beginning but destiny didn't side with them. Pain was etched into their daily lives. Yet none would back down from what they thought was necessary. Pain was a small price to pay. Lies and secrets. Pain and sorrow. Love and Passion.

But will they take the leap? ___ Prompt 14: "My muse, believe me, waiting for you has been a form of freedom." ___ Excerpt: "Don't look back." Ian stares at me through the screen with his dark, intense gaze. "Don't long for all the things that might have been. Don't chastise yourself for the decisions you've made." For a moment, his words render me silent. "Appreciate all those little indentations that make you who you are," he says with a tender expression. "And remember your superpower." "What superpower?" "Let yourself dream again." A tender smile crosses his features. "Focus that intense drive of yours on the future like you used to do." He's right. For so long, I've been living in survival mode. One foot in front of the other. Stuck in this nightmare, I haven't been able to see any other way forward. Until now.
