2150. Earth's resources can no longer sustain more than one generation at a time. The government has enforced a single rule: one generation alive, the other asleep. Babies grow up inside underground capsules while their parents prepare the world for them. When one generation dies, the next awakens. Officially, to preserve the planet's reserves... But Aren isn't like the others. His dreams show him a mother he was never supposed to know. And in a system where everything is controlled, his memories might be the spark that changes everything.
The Law and the Codas
The government every year tasks its elite soldiers to participate in a nation-wide Cull. Hundreds of children are taken from homes and put into one of four Facilities. While most of them will be offered comfortable lives in the forms of low-ranking militia commandos and government jobs, a few will be groomed to be the successors for the highest office the government has to offer: The Law. To ensure that they would be able to keep ruling the world, The Law started implanting chips into all its citizens. These chips called DEC, as Contained electrical current, it's an electronic chip that looks like a silver dot, these chips allowing The Law and any actual law enforcement to be able to track everyone. And it would help to keep everyone in line and stomp out any pesky notions before they manifested into something bigger, something dangerous. Shirley is known in the Facility as Ten, alongside six others, they have spent years enduring confinement and rigorous testing in order to secure a future as head of the Law. When a group calls themselves the codas breaks into the Facility and kidnaps Ten and the others, she's forced to re-examine her future plans. In the year 2050, post-apocalyptic world, a lone girl must choose between becoming the next-in-line to head a corrupt government or siding with those who wish to see the world a better place. Order and lies, or truth and freedom? Whatever she chooses, one thing is clear: both sides bleed.

Will Shirley choose the future that's been decided for her, or will she make out one all her own, even if that path leads to her destruction?Complete

Planet Omega
We all began on another planet, one that should have taken us all down with it when it burned up in a fiery rage. We had no business living longer than that. We certainly had no business colonizing elsewhere, murdering, ravaging, taking. It wasn't ours. Yet, we'd felt entitled, simply because it was there. Humans had always done that well, all throughout history - taking things that didn't belong to them. No matter the cost. "Run." Violence is in our blood, every single one of us descended from the millions of humans who'd dared survive after Earth could take no more of them. "Run now, and don't look back."Complete
