Firstly, it was just the prisoners that were used. 

Then it became orphans, and even some of the elderly. 

Now it is everyone in a society where people are struggling to find work. 

Money is offered to anyone willing to volunteer themselves or their children to take part in scientific trials run by the organisation called Calox.

Except no one ever gets the money. 

No one is ever seen again once they've volunteered for the trials.

(This is the first book in the 'Children of Calox' series. 'Flames' is the sequel, and therefore the second book in the series. I plan to write between three and five books in total.)All Rights Reserved

The Altered. by _fiinch_

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.)

Project Starfall (Completed) by APurpleBird

Criminals. Nobodies. People who won't be missed. These are the candidates chosen for Project Starfall. Five years ago, Pierce was the first to survive a procedure that turned her into something not-quite-human. And for those five years her only company had been the guards that keep her detained. But now there are four others, all freaks like herself, and while she has no intention of becoming their friend, Pierce knows they will make invaluable allies. She takes them under her wing, guiding them through the deadly machine that is Starfall. Although she tries, Pierce can't help but develop a fondness toward her new charges, and they become more than just players in her game. When two mysterious figures show up at her cell vowing to help her escape, she makes a single promise: She will get each and every one of them out alive. But once they do escape, where will they go? *** I hired a professional editor for book 1, but I need to raise more money before I can hire one for book 2. I will go ahead and publish the unedited version here soon so people can enjoy it. If anyone would like to help support me by purchasing book 1 it is available on Amazon. I really appreciate any help I can get, thank you all so much and I hope you enjoy Project Starfall! I have so many ideas for where this series will go and can't wait to share it :)

(REWRITING) The Skylar Experiment : Coveting by NoppityNope666

"Three weeks. That's how long I got to have drama-free. I'm not sure what is happening to me or to Oakwood. Nothing's the same since I rolled into town and it just keeps getting weirder. Suspicious agents in suits roam the streets without an explanation. They're staring straight at me. The new Chemistry teacher is NOT who he says he is. I'm doing things I never thought I could. Like, mutant-level things... Lauren, Luc's dead twin sister, hid something from everyone. Something important that may have lead to her demise and that could lead to ours. Hunters are in town. I never knew four words could contain so much dread and terror. I'd rather deal with the Wanderers. I'm on the brink of a breakdown. I need help..." BOOK #2 IN THE SERIES! Ignorance is not bliss... In the wake of ridding Oakwood of Wanderers, other dangers come creeping in and they're somehow linked to Luc's absent twin. The past returns to haunt the mutants in inconspicuous ways. Riley's life is yet again in jeopardy, but this time she's not alone. Luc and his family are all thrown into the teetering balance. More secrets are uncovered. A trap dawns on them all. Invisible threats start crawling from all directions. Who is the real enemy? TW : behaviours of depression and PTSD are displayed. I don't name them, but one of the character will be struggling a lot. It may not be suitable for everybody. Other adult matters are briefly included, but nothing explicit or intense. Rewriting specifications : the main points of the story and end of the book will remain the same, am just going to change a few ways of getting there and adding some extra spice. Feel free to pause the read until the REWRITING sign disappears.

The Island by AmyJohnson895

"This is The Island, a prison designed for minors like me- too young to be executed, too old to be reformed, and too much of a stain on humanity to let exist. It was 'the answer' to the growing crime rate resulting from a world that was falling apart. The details evade me, but there is one thing I know. The water doesn't seem as scary as it did before." When Jordyn wakes up in the middle of a tropical forest in the mouth of a cat too big to be real, she decides this isn't how she wants to die. The Island has other plans, though. It was designed to kill her, and it will bring out every gun in the arsenal to do so. Her life becomes a game of survival from the mutant and venomous animals, severe temperature changes, and impossible weather scenarios that exist in this government manufactured prison. The twist? She has no idea who she is, where she came from, or why she committed first-degree arson. In this mixture of "The Hunger Games" and "Maze Runner", Jordyn has to unravel the truth before nature kills her- or die not knowing.

{The Firelight Chronicles} 6: SE7EN, The Sunflower Effect (girlxgirl) Lesbian by ilmioamore

Disclaimer: I wrote this novel before the movie Lucy came out it is in no way related but the premise of the brain and the powers eerily similar It is the year 2173. Human beings have evolved to use more than 10% of their brain, and as an effect, possess supernatural powers. Luna and Lara Valkyrie grew up in a foster home in the town of Westhaven, California. Both 18 and having been born on the same day, they were raised as twins, Luna adopting Lara's surname because of her own being unknown. Westhaven is a lovely town, the perfect place to live the american dream in. There is only one problem. Not only there, but in almost every place in the world, human beings are branded with a number, that being the amount of supernatural abilities they possess. By the time each child reaches the age of 18, that number becomes permanent, and everyone with a ranking above 5 is taken away. From that moment on, they belong to the government, and must train in government facilities that are a lot like prisons or army bases. Their eyes are changed by machines, and they are identified for the bright aura-like color that surrounds their pupils and contrasts against their natural eye color, "the sunflower effect". The day of the chosen has come, and Luna Valkyrie is a seven. When she is taken by government guards, she believes her life is over. That is, until she meets Alexandra Pertierra, a brazen 23 year old with a rank of eleven who turns her world upside down with a cocky smirk. *An aftermath to Wicked Intentions*

Vennfall by vennrunner

On the isolated, tidally locked planet of Venn, a fragile colony survives between fire and frost: a scorched wasteland on one side, a frozen wilderness on the other, and a narrow strip of life clinging to the middle - the Verge. Beneath the surface, the planet's power flows through massive rootlines - a semi-organic energy network left behind by something ancient and non-human. Seventeen-year-old Calidae Crey was never supposed to matter. He's a neurodivergent rootline engineer - observant, withdrawn, always chasing patterns no one else sees. But something happened to him in the labs seven years ago. Something dangerous. Something still not fully understood. Now the rootlines are surging again. Now the past is waking up. And the truth is catching up to him. Cal isn't alone. There's a restless tinkerer with grease under his nails and loyalty in his bones. A scrappy girl who won't let anyone she loves be taken without a fight. And a young survivor of a special ops mission that went horribly wrong, who carries his scars along with a deep, unspoken love for Cal's sister - who has gone missing. Together, they'll face a world shaped by extremes and forged by alien hands. A slow-burn sci-fi thriller about found family, trauma, survival, and the secrets that won't stay buried forever. The world is cracking open. And one boy is the epicenter. ◇◇◇ ⚠️ Content warning: This story contains descriptions of injury, medical trauma, and emotional distress.
