In his twenty-nine years, Matthew Moxon had done virtually nothing with his record-breaking IQ and unparalleled problem solving abilities. Until one morning, after a dangerous fall lands him in the emergency room, he discovers that a tumor is pressing against his brain. 

Unable to afford experimental but potentially life-saving surgery, Moxon takes drastic action; he volunteers for Arena Mode: 2041's most vicious sporting event, where thirteen superhumans fight in an urban combat zone for a multi-billion dollar prize. 

Moxon is forced to battle opponents possessing ungodly speed, strength, and abilities once thought to exist only across the pages of superhero comics – and he’s armed with nothing more than his rapidly-diminishing brain cells. 

With the odds stacked impossibly against him, Moxon fights to not only survive the wrath of the other competitors, but to unlock the mysteries buried within the Arena itself.Seluruh Hak Cipta Dilindungi Undang-Undang

Clackers oleh Arundel2000

There is nothing as powerful in life as your first love. When this happens after clacking to a strange new world where people reverse age-let's say it's complicated. Demalynn is a seventeen-year-old girl from a small town who one day hears a loud 'clack' and is transported to the planet Saffire. Naked. Then things really get weird. No child has ever been born on Saffire; clackers make up the entire population. All people who clack under thirty reverse age: each year they grow younger. As an awkward teenager plagued by panic attacks who dabbles in comedy, Demalynn just wants to go home to be re-united with her family. Citizens over thirty grow old and are forced to mine the mineral that powers giant cooling stations to keep the planet habitable. Citizens solve disputes with gladiatorial combat. The prophesy of The Coming In Saffire's time of greatest need, a child will be born to a special woman, the Gravidarum. The child, who has no father of this planet, will be known as the Unum, a child to lead Saffire. The Helper will battle to keep the Gravidarum safe until the Unum is born. The people of Saffire have been waiting to see The Coming fulfilled. Demalynn assembles a group of clackers to get her home, the most important of which is a fellow clacker: eighteen-year-old Aiden. It is not long before Jago, the ruler of Saffire, learns that a woman on Saffire is pregnant and he unleashes all his power to prevent the birth. Jago will not give up power. Demalynn is surprised to find out she is the Helper, but is astounded to learn the identity of the Gravidarum. Demalynn must battle to stay alive and fumbles towards the realization that Aiden is much more than a close friend. She is certain, with the certainty that only a seventeen-year-old can possess, that Aiden is her only true love. Demalynn is desperate to find a way back home until she must make a choice: stay with Aiden on Saffire or go back home and re-unite her family. There's no place like home.

Super Blogger oleh UC-creates

Love, Crime, Action! When the world's richest blogger is secretly the world's only superhero... you'd think he couldn't have it any better. But throw an alien race of conquerors into the picture, and the 24-year-old Jason Leo McLean is on a mission to save Earth from a fullblown invasion while at the same time sorting out his love life. *** For the longest time, Jason thought he was in love with his highschool crush, Gina Orwell. Even through college, he couldn't seem to get her out of his head. That is until his path links with June Austere, a famous popstar, at a special event. Their brief shared moments make him feel like they're a match made in heaven. A feeling he doesn't have time to process as he constantly battles criminals in his alien tech armor. However, a warrior from the stars arrives on Earth with sinister plans, forcing Jason to switch into the next gear or risk losing everything he holds dear--including Gina, who pops back into his life, all grown and sassy. And then there's Alain Archer, king of New Chronos City's underground, as dangerous as he is elusive. Hence, it's a full plate; two threats and two love interests. So as the galactic warrior hunts him down, the press gets alarmingly curious about his wealth, and his friends become increasingly suspicious, Jason must wear many masks while trying to save the world and get the girl--whoever she may be. As the saying goes; 'You win some, you lose some'. But sometimes you can either win it all or lose it all. ------------------------------------------------ 🏆1st Place winner in the sci-fi category of the 2023 Datura Awards. #FEATURED by @ScienceFiction #FEATURED by @AmbassadorsNG ▪︎▪︎▪︎ *Cover by the awesome @still_just_me ▪︎▪︎▪︎

The Gunpoint Society: Colt-9 (Under Revision) oleh OmoriDreamer12

In a world where society has made guns the norm, a world driven and fueled by nothing but the thrill and adrenaline of humanity. Changing their view on guns, changing their symbolism. That is, fame, honor, skill, power, everything is told by your bullet. This is how the world works. However, one person, one teenager, changed. He was transferred to a struggling school filled with students dreaming of becoming legendary shooters while he is determined to prove himself in this unforgiving world. Not for fame. Not for respect. Not for the glory others chase. But because of his past, a war survivor who had been through hell, losing his left eye and bearing scars that left him haunted as long as he lived. Yet, in a world that glorifies the gun, he cannot pull the trigger, he cannot take a life, and he will go against this world's rule. Shoot or do not shoot. Kill or be killed. But to him- He'll protect those who cannot protect themselves, and he cares. And to do it without taking a single life. Expect a chapter in 1-2 chapters in a month (new cover Jan-11 2025)

Arena of Champions (Marvel&DC Hunger Games) oleh PotMAD

When twelve heroes from across dimensions are abducted by an unknown force, they awaken in a brutal arena where survival is the only law. Stripped of their alliances, resources, and trust, each champion must rely on their wits, strength, and unyielding will to navigate the treacherous landscape of the Hunger Arena-a world where dense forests conceal deadly traps, jagged cliffs hold dark secrets, and alliances are as fragile as the air they breathe. As the clock counts down, rivalries ignite, alliances falter, and secrets are unearthed. But the greatest mystery remains: Who is the mastermind behind the arena? And is there any way to stop them before it's too late? In a battle of courage, strategy, and betrayal, only one will emerge victorious. Will it be the cunning tactician, the unyielding warrior, or the reluctant hero who rises above the chaos? **In the Arena of Champions, survival isn't just the goal-it's the only truth.**

Mild Mannered oleh WillCohenAuthor

“The beginning of the beginning. The genesis of great things. An origin story.” Paul Pritchard just graduated from college, master's degree in his hand, and ready to start his new life. The problem is...he's already struggling to find a job. With the prospects of living in a basement apartment, eating ramen for every meal, Paul finds the real world a bit intimidating. That is, until a strange man named Nathan David approaches him with a job opportunity with his company: the Wyndham-Hart Group, an organization that has spent decades shielding the world at large of the existence of “persons with powers” – the politically correct term for superheroes. While a handful of Wyndham-Hart operatives are out in the open with their own comic books and cartoon series, like the legendary gun-toting badass Stronghold, the majority of persons with powers walk among us, under the watchful eye of the company – and the conglomerate simply known as The Agency. Under the direct supervision of the beautiful (and sardonic) Quinn Feldman, Paul is thrust into “on-the-job training” as Stronghold's personal liaison. While assisting him in this case, all arrows quickly point to Chapter Zero: a mysterious and dangerous chemical compound that draws the attention of both Wyndham-Hart operatives and the shady characters they're trying to stop. Unfortunately, one such character is Thaddeus Bell, a rogue Wyndham-Hart operative who reappears after living nearly thirty years off the grid, and is now, as it seems, out for blood. With the pressure surmounting, Paul, Stronghold, and the rest of Wyndham-Hart are on a race against time before Chapter Zero is unearthed and falls into the wrong hands...and before someone realizes Paul may be under-qualified for the job.

My Deceiving Eyes oleh tinaheartz

In 2239, added as an ingredient for rat poison, a disease began to spread rapidly through the air. Decaying the bones it attaches to, inflicting paralysis and organ failure while its victims remain conscious enough to feel the pain that follow. Two years later, a vengeful ex-scientist released another sickness. Those who were infected suffered severe symptoms that would alter them into aggressive and animalistic creatures. These two illnesses quickly combined, causing a huge outbreak across the world and Wiping out almost 64% of the human's population. They called this contagious and infectious disease, "the Bliss." Eleven years later, after hundreds of failed trials, the Serpent department has created a solution: children who are immune to the disease. Raised within the boundless white laboratory walls, Adrian Bordeleau is cruelly exploited to develop a cure. As he grow up, a voice began to eat away at his soul. Gradually making him question what is keeping him from breaking out of the facility and destroy everything and everyone who dared to deceive him. Once you get a taste of power, you can't go back - My Deceiving Eyes is heavily inspired by the song Brutus by Buttress. As well as the Flare from Maze Runner, Deep Root disease from Gemini Home Entertainment, and the Grimace shake incident. [SECOND DRAFT]

The Labyrinth Keys oleh matthewp118

In the sprawling waste zones of Ashfield, a city choked by the refuse of a broken society, Jack Vesper sorts through discarded junk with no real future in sight. At 25, he's just another misfit, another person tossed aside by the world, now working a grueling job as a garbage sorter. The days are monotonous, but when he stumbles upon a strange, black metal sphere buried deep in the trash, everything changes. Curious, Jack presses a hidden button on the sphere, releasing a small black chip into his hand. It feels heavy with mystery and potential, too precise to be just another piece of discarded tech. With no one else around on a slow Saturday shift, Vesper pockets the chip and continues his work, unaware that this seemingly insignificant object is about to pull him into a new, dangerous world. Jack's curiosity gets the better of him, and he travels to a long-forgotten lab on the outskirts of the city. The lab, once a hub for cutting-edge research, is now abandoned, its halls lined with old maps, blueprints, and cryptic notes. As he begins to study the charts, he discovers a book of labyrinths spanning the globe-labyrinths not just made of stone, but of technology and power, their existence hidden from the world. Some of these labyrinths hold secrets of unimaginable value; others, unfathomable dangers. The chip seems to be a key-a gateway into these labyrinths. As Jack begins to piece together the labyrinth's secrets, he realizes that it could lead him to a power unlike anything the world has ever known. But with that power comes the threat of those who would stop at nothing to control it. The line between friend and foe blurs, and Vesper must navigate not only the physical maze but the twisted web of secrets and lies surrounding him. The adventure begins with one small chip-and the future depends on what Jack discovers within the labyrinth's depths.
