Far-future earth is nothing but a wasteland planet, under the control of a few wealthy families. The Sanatanas are one of those families. In the coastal town of Mar Vista, Don Fausto Santana runs his resource-harvesting enterprise, and he will stop at nothing to get what he wants.

His son, Tulio Santana, hasn't been to earth in ages. He's just arrived via the Jewel-of-Mars colony from his latest tour in the Intergalactic Navy, but when he returns to his childhood home, something just seems wrong. His father is exploiting workers, there are mysterious riots happening all over the city, and there's strange magic in the air. No one seems to be giving him answers, so Tulio must go out and find those answers for himself, no matter the risk.

The Solstice Bandit is a futuristic re-imagining of The Mark of Zorro, full of adventure, magic, and vigilante justice. I wrote this as a school project, so it's a bit shorter, but I hope you enjoy!Tous Droits Réservés

The Edge Of Space , écrit par Cladshaw

The first book of many I plan to write. Join Vontaine and Merca on their journey through the stars to unlock the secrets of the self, and more importantly; the universe! On this journey, they will encounter many friends and foes. Pick up a small crew of devoted accomplices along the way, and bring down the Gladius empire, a multi-planetary crime organization that threatens millions of civilian lives, and the danger of a potential galactic war! Come along for the journey as our heroes fight for peace in their slice of the universe! ------------------------~~~~~~-------------------------- A science fiction adventure that takes place several thousand years in the future, humans have reached the stars, aliens are proven real and much more is to be discovered about life, death and the ancient gods that made us. There's way more to the universe than we ever thought possible... BTW, some of the concepts in this book, haven't been fleshed out 100% so please be patient, I'll probably be editing a lot. Thank you for your understanding. Love you! <3

Reboot, écrit par MarCafeWrites

"The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race. It would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn't compete, and would be superseded." -- Stephen Hawking * * * A collection of short stories and one-shots: some old, some new, and all (in one respect or another) science fiction. From reimagined fanfiction, to homage paid to greats like Philip K Dick, these are some pieces centering around the rise of technology, the decline of humanity, androids, A.I., and dystopian futures.

Wolf 3.0, écrit par WilderBellamy

Wolf 3.0 And His World (Version 2) More Story, More Power THE FUTURE BELONGS TO THE BOLD: The stakes: Everything familiar to us could be changed, past and future. Influences: the dystopic horror of "Wolf", the far-out technology and rampant billionaire of "Prometheus", and the visionary future of "Blade Runner 2049". In the new chapters: The Descent -- A wolf brigade returns to an Earth that has gone terrifyingly wrong. The Airlift -- Volcanos erupting around the world, one endangering a city with a unique surviving animal preserve. Flash-Bang -- In above city, to escape the volcano's ravages, a new technology for teleporting millions of people is tried out. Mage -- UFO touch-down in a town closely situated to Rio de Janeiro when their annual festival is in full swing, and the two shape-shifters escape into the chaos. The Awakening -- We listen as Gaia, a future global AI system, taps into the group consciousness of all the characters and blends them into a river of voices in a stream-of-consciousness transcript.

Code: 213, écrit par BlackAmiraWritesBack

TEASER: I sit comfortably in my makeshift shelter, planning my next voyage to the surface. Faint footsteps above ground snap me out of my thought. I silently reached to my loaded gun, an SKO Shorty, and carefully pulled back the hammer. I silently crept up the unstable metal stairs, aiming my gun at the door at the top. The heavy metal door creaked. Something was behind it. The door pushes open to reveal a man. A human. He slowly reaches into his pocket and pulls out a crinkled yellow paper. I grab the note, while lowering my gun. I look up only to find the man gone. I unfold the paper. It's hard to make out the words in red ink with the dim lighting of the sewer tunnel. Eventually, I'm able to decipher, "34.0522' N, 118.2437' W". Coordinates. At the bottom of the note, scribbled out in black in, there's one phrase. "Code: 213" *Please note this story includes graphic depictions of blood and violence. This story may not be suitable for all audiences.

Illusions and Lies (A Super Smash Brothers fan fiction), écrit par -pyrotechnicalities

NOTICE: THIS STORY IS AN OLD DRAFT. It is currently in the process of being rewritten. For your sake (and mine) please go check out "ILLUSIONS AND LIES: REWRITE" on my profile. While I'm not stopping you from reading this- especially if you're impatient and want to know how the story goes- please do keep in mind that aspects of this story are unpolished in this book. "we thought we were special. turns out, we were wrong." A group of teenagers who live in a place known only as "The Compound" are led to believe that they are the last people on the planet, aside from their ever-present caretakers. The Caretakers study them and their abilities, never once letting them know of the thriving outside world. In the outside world, everybody has abilities, known as "Gifts." The oppressive government prevents people from using these Gifts properly. A faction of rebels is on the rise, determined to retrieve the children they lost to this cruel government and create a fairer world for all. "and we don't like being wrong..." Modern futuristic AU. This story will contain mature themes and triggering topics, such as somewhat detailed descriptions of blood and violence, suicide, depression, homophobia, child abuse, and death. I do not own the characters, but I do own the plot. Please do not steal the plot or elements of this story.

We Are All Killers [Snk ~ Reiner x Bertolt], écrit par arminleftthechat

2145 Long, long ago, humanity had reached it's peak in peace and prosperity. The sad thing was that there was still war and starvation. Overpopulation took it's toll, taking away room and a surplus of food. The world continued to die until 100 years ago, when Governer Zackly's great grandfather had come up with an idea. What if we could halve the earth's population? What if, within a region, the strong will rise, one by one, to create a better, more efficient society. This was Zackley's vision. However, every vision of change comes with bloodshed. The only way for the strong to emerge is if they eliminate the weak. And that is exactly what today's society is based upon. I am Bertolt Hoover. I understand that I have to kill or be killed. On behalf of the region of Maria, I accept my challenge. ⊷⋄⋄⚄⋄⋄⊶

CANAISIS ∞ Chronicle One: The Last Living Ship ∞ 1: A New Mission, écrit par -NikaRave-

Volume 1 of CANAISIS ∞ The Last Living Ship trilogy (Chronicles of Canaisis 1) Can a ship, born to sail the ocean of stars to ensure Humankind's survival, save her Captain from the void within his own heart? ∞ ∞ ∞ Canaisis is the last of her kind, a Living Ship forged with Mankind's most advanced technology and artificial intelligence. Together with her Captain, she sails the cold, dark void between stars at multiple times the speed of light-to ensure Humanity's survival. As Canaisis agrees to carry a corporation's entire personelle to their new colony planet, Captain Gareth Levant finds his solitude interrupted by a new culture and a woman whose Gift threatens to unlock the pain caged within his heart. A pain he's carried since before the day he first launched... centuries ago. As if that is not enough, something about Earth's Citizens sanctioning the corporation's relocation rings falsely with undertones that has Captain Levant on edge. He will do anything to keep his ship and passengers safe. Captain Levant loves his ship, as any good captain does since the beginning of time-whether with wind, sail and ocean waves as in the days of old, or in the vast depths of space. But if Canaisis were able to return that love, could it burn bright enough to light the way through the void within the Captain's own heart? Or does it require the Gift of human touch? ∞ ∞ ∞ By @kemorgan65 and @RavenRock2112 ∞ ∞ ∞ A prequel to the pre-story of #ShadowOfThePastTrilogy ∞ The Displaced. ∞ ∞ ∞ SEQUELS: Canaisis ∞ A Captain's Journey Canaisis ∞ A Shard Of Code ∞ ∞ ∞ REVIEW by @Ray_Of_Sunshine9 "...loved the overall themes within the story, and what it meant for me as a person - a mission of delivering hope and finding a new home. ... Engineering, technology...some very detailed information, ...it's done in a way that makes it easy for me to digest...accessible and patient, which I appreciate."
