Zemblanity: "The antonym of serendipity... making unhappy, unlucky and expected discoveries by intent rather than by chance."
It's a wonderful world we live in. Nobody has to care about government, laws, taxes, school, war, none of that. It's an urban world taken over by nature and scavengers. The people here are called Dwellers, and they live through trading, exploring, building a small yet strong community, or living off the mutated land alone. Life is good. Life has always been this way.
Except it hasn't. Juvie and their group of friends find this out when they explore PreDweller buildings and find old pictures and documents telling the tale of an older world. A world filled to the brim with people and advanced technology. What happened to that world?
Suddenly, our main characters find themselves pursuing the answer to that question. Instead of living in a peaceful nature based world full of ignorance and safety, they go out of their way to discover the cold, gray, and frightening skeletons of what used to be major cities of what used to be a major country. They've gotten themselves into this mess, and now they can't go back. Not without knowing the history of the world they live in.

Broken
Broken. I'd say that's a good way to describe me. Even as the world fell to pieces, I still desperately tried to collect mine, hoping that maybe I could put myself back together. But when the world turned evil and dark, and insanity fell upon the innocent, I had no choice but to build a new Beth. A new girl. That way, no matter how many people I was forced to kill, I wouldn't shatter. Excerpt: The mistakes of your past will affect your future. I've figured that out over the years of mistakes I've seen bleed from my parents. I don't really know how to describe the consequences of those mistakes, because you can see them all over my body. You can see the bruises from the beatings and the pain flashing in my eyes. The moment you realize I won't smile at you because you're a man who could potentially overpower me and harm me... it's heartbreaking for some people. I've gotten used to the belt lashes and the screaming and the crying and the rejection. So much so that when it was taken away, that scared little girl inside of me tore through my walls, and I broke. Yet, after all the crap I saw and the suffering I endured without the help of my parents, I realized I could handle it. I could shove away the terrified me and fight. I could fight for my friends, and for my sister. Maybe I'll die, maybe I won't. But either way, I'm going to fight to survive until I draw my final breath.Complete
POKEMON: Flames Of Devotion
(18+ Mature Content) (I figured I would start over with something basic; I will probably save the harem fanfics for later, once I am settled, but for now, I just thought of starting my new account with something straightforward to accomplish. Before Wattpad deleted my original account, this was one of the draft tales I intended to upload. This also serves as the beginning of a short Pokémon series I am creating.) After Dr. Athelstan Byschoppeson developed the Anthro-Ball, Pokemon from all over the world developed sentience and were located in the brand-new dimension of the T.L.C. multidimensional cosmos. Y/N was not really into Pokemon, so he was astonished when Dr. Byschoppeson approached him and offered to give him a free Anthro-Ball with a free Pokemon inside. Although Y/N was not very interested in it, he took it nevertheless because it was essentially free and he preferred getting things for free than paying for them. When he realizes what he brought home, though, Y/N's lack of interest in Pokemon might change. #1 on furrylove - 3/28/2022 #1 furrygirl - 3/28/2022Complete

(Currently completed as of October 2023, and finished editing as of March 2024) *****Excerpt***** Excerpt: Instead of seeing myself standing in front of me, there is somebody else and it's not my brother or anyone I know. A boy no older than me is just standing there, he is wearing a gray shirt with a hole in the shoulder and it has a handful of stains and dirt spots on it. I immediately know he is not from Treegrass.

The Fangs didn't care for humanity and would kill any human they came across and, in some cases capture and experiment on them.

Static
{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16Complete
