Her impulsive honest answer sets in motion a chain of events that causes her and others to question the division between cilantro lovers and haters, Australia's isolation, and even the rebel groups that try ceaselessly to free the citizens of Cilantro.All Rights Reserved

A light-hearted YA dystopia parody novella in the vein of Hunger Games or Divergent. In the dystopian Elevatia you're sorted into a district based on your height.

Rebecca Split (Sparks will fly) by Spinzhira

The planet is in trouble. The Sparkies are here and they haven't come in peace. They feed on decay, and will stop at nothing to satisfy their hunger. This is the biggest challenge since the extinction of the dinosaurs and a fight that Mother Nature cannot win by herself. A new kind of hero is needed and when the call comes, it is to one who is a little younger and a little more mischievous than expected. Rebecca is like every other fourteen year old. Her hobbies are sleeping, moaning, eating and searching for answers to the imponderable question 'Why is it always me?' She does have one unique attribute though: the voices in her head are real. Not only that, but they want to come out. Her toughest fight to that point had been an ongoing crisis with uncontrollable hair, but now she must put aside her teenage troubles and travel the length and breadth of New Zealand, to vanquish the enemy before it's too late. From the wine regions of the Wairarapa, the streets of Auckland and the seal sanctuary of Cape Palister, to the tranquillity of the Pacific Islands, Rebecca must travel to wherever the danger threatens because, whether it interferes with her homework or not, the future of our planet is in her hands. Rebecca shares her mind and body with three others: Ranga, a red haired conservationist with the fashion sense of an explosion in a paint factory; Psycho, a hard hitting martial arts expert, all adrenalin but more Goth than girl; and Boff, a braniac with an IQ to embarrass a roomful of university professors. With a little help from Oldag, (the living embodiment of Mother Nature,) some magic and an awful lot of luck, they'll face this enemy, share the occasional milkshake and hopefully be back at school before any of the teachers notice. There will be split nails, dodgy outfits and more than the occasional tantrum, but Rebecca and her split personalities will stand together as one, in a showdown that will determine the fate of the world as we know it.

Selected (Book 2 of the Immune Series) by AmyJohnson895

"As far back as I can remember, I've been surrounded by water. The salt in the air even now makes it hard to breath, forcing me to squint. Sand clings to every inch of me, caking my pants and shoes. The wind from the ocean picks my hair up, sending it blowing back towards the multi-colored houses lining the shore line. *** 'Quinn, don't panic,' Lexi says through gritted teeth. She holds fistfuls of my shirt now, and I hear the rubber soles of her shoes squeaking. 'Too late,' I whine, grabbing the barbed wire in a last desperate effort to regain some balance. The razor sharp blades cut into my palms, making me jump again. Lexi sucks in air and loses her grip on me. I hold my breath and close my eyes, feeling the wind cradle me from all sides as I fall at about twenty-four miles per hour, considering the height of the wall and my weight. Now, I wish I was surrounded by water." South of Compound 4, another compound exists. Within the wall of Compound 5, children are trained and tested for perfection through the Intelligence Exam, a test that every student takes during their sixteenth year. Pass, and you stay within the compound. Fail, and you are sent to another compound. It's common knowledge that they are building a perfect population to remain when the rest of the world falls to the Virus. Yet, what happens when Quinn faces the threat of Compound 5, a short blonde girl whose name he can't pronounce, and begins to question everything he's ever been taught, pushing the limits of the system and his own comfort zone? When a student receives the compound's first ever perfect IE score, a storm makes its way in from the ocean. Can Q unravel the secrets held within the walls, or will he lead his family and friends to a war they can't win against a woman who seems to be triumphing against all odds? Selected is the sequel to Immune, found on my profile. Record Ranking: #25 in Science Fiction

Women on Top by FreeDud

In a utopian near future, women run the world, and they have finally sorted it out. Nurturing the earth back to health following centuries of male violence, and creating a pristine commercial paradise, women have separated men into those that are fertile, Studs, and those that are useless, Duds. It is one such Dud, he who is labelled Wimpole, who threatens this paradise. Mistakenly assigned as a Stud through a (male) clerical error, and assigned to impregnate the noble Commandress Roseanne, Dud Wimpole threatens the very fabric of our ideal future society.

OBLITERATE- The Ring of fire by KenR_7

It's the end. Obliteration. It came out obvious with Martians starting to act like jerks, but what Destiny did not know was that she was involved in stopping it and causing it. Talk about double acting. There were other things she did not know before she laid foot on the school with the rickety old gate. She didn't know everything about her life was a big, fat lie. She didn't know her parents were criminals. She didn't know that her planet was crawling with tomato addicts. At least one. Most of all, she didn't know that she was going to be leaving the school because of a cannibal attack. Now, she and her sister have to set off 'into the goddamned wilderness' with the most annoying, charming blond upstart, a peppermint addicted Mars Man who's absolutely legit and a red-headed girl. But things get way more worse when her sister gets kidnapped by the Martians. With dozens of people dead and her own life in danger, will she possibly choose to take a risk with a problem involving her known family and two separate planets?

Adventures of the Cosmic Woman by walter_jenkins

She decides to become a crime-fighter, at first winning the affections of the Australian and US governments (the latter under its fifth consecutive Trump presidency) but as her exploits begin to target the real criminals - the same Australian and US governments - and expose to her their corruption the xenophobic, corporatist, and bigoted cruelty, she finds that not only the politicians, but the majority of people who vote for them quickly turn against her.

Once Again by DragonSwirl

"It's human nature. It's instinct to survive, no matter the cost." The world has fallen into desolation. The apocalypse has already started and finished, leaving some of the surviving ones with strange powers and mysterious scars. The world has ended, according to some, and is now in a state of rebirth. Others say it hasn't ended yet and that it's only going to get worse. The remaining people have grouped together in packs and gangs, raiding the desolate cities and avoiding the ones called the Destroyers, who capture and torture the remaining survivors. No one is safe. One fifteen year old boy knows this better than anyone. He and his older sister lived together, sticking to the dark alleys of their abandoned city, and survived for years after the apocalypse, until the Destroyers came and took her away, reigning terror on the few who remained in the city. The boy, desperate to find someone to help him save his sister, leaves the city and finds one of the youngest cooperative packs in North America, called the Raiders, comprised of unwanted individuals with the strange powers left from the destruction of years past. Their leader, a destructive insomniac, promises to help him in return for the skills and usefulness this young boy seems to possess, but something disrupting sends waves of unease through the Raiders, something about a forgotten past and talk of a mutiny. "Maybe there's more to life than just surviving." ... Rated C for Caution. Though it's rated mature, there is no bad language or vivid descriptions of sexual contact. It does have very strong themes. Please read the two important notices in the intro. Read at your own risk. Thanks.
