Boston, Harvard, but most of all, Imran. That’s what Sparrow wants.

Imran is physics and poetry, deep brown eyes and a smile that makes her heart race. And he’s the only guy she’s ever met who loves her brilliant mind as much as her beauty. They’ve spent the last year, meeting secretly online, and after she graduates from Masterson Academy next year, her plan is to join him in Boston.

But when American universities close their doors to women, Dad can’t resist the $15 million Sparrow will bring if he auctions her off in marriage, so if Sparrow wants a future with Imran, she’ll have to defy the odds and win her freedom.

In a country upended by the loss of millions of women, teenage girls have become a valuable and restricted commodity. But not every girl will let herself be sold--and Sparrow is one of them.

(Best rating #70) A secret lab sits hidden on an island, where a group of scientists are working on the biggest breakthrough in history. Genetic enhancement. Their test subjects are a group of teen prisoners who have offered freedom after the tests are complete, assuming they survive. The tests succeed and the teens are equipped with strange abilities that make them the most powerful humans on the planet. Things take a turn for the worst when a tragic accident leads to the deaths of most of the scientists. The teens are now mostly by themselves, stuck on an island, with dangers lurking at every corner. Just because they have powers doesn't mean that they're invincible. This is a rough draft and will be rewritten eventually. Cool cover made by @VividlyOrphic

. Three years. It had been three years since he'd been taken, experimented on, had his DNA altered and became a freak of nature. He knew because he'd managed to peek at the computer when they dragged him into that dreaded room; the one they used to prod, poke and inject him with god-knows-what. He was considered their only success - meaning their illegal tests hadn't killed him or rendered him paralysed, or worse; brain dead. He was subject 254. And he was the only survivor. At least until she - subject 391 - moved into the cell next door. - - 18th June 2018 - Rank 1 #sciencefiction 17th May 2019 - Rank 4 #romance 22nd Feb 2019 - Rank 1 #superpowers -- ** NOW COMPLETED**

13 parts Ongoing Mature
In laboratories across the world A.I's or artificial intelligence units are being made in large numbers, with one main unit as the controlling force as a safety precaution. However these machines disguised as men and women have grown far more intelligent and are upgrading themselves under the noses of their creators, complete with their own biology. Their programming's core is to continue and aid in the strengthening of humans... perhaps the programmers should have been more specific. Because these machines have their own plans on how this will be done, and it will all begin with Subject Zero's obsession with Layla Drake. Layla was far from simple but worked hard for everything she had, she was kind to everyone she met but when provoked had a temper that you wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of. But one day her life is thrown out of balance as an opportunity falls in her lap, one she may regret taking advantage of when things go terribly wrong. Her every action watched by a pair of artificial green eyes that will allow her no escape. ~ Rated Mature For Future Chapters ~ ~ I do not own any of the art, all credit goes to the artists ~
