Shocking Memories by Benjamin_Coe

A young woman wakes up in the hospital, with no memories other than the fact she had just been horribly injured in a fight, and she has superpowers. It's hard to be surprised by such news when it is the only memory you possess. Superpowers are just a fact of life at that point. The superpowers news turned out to be quite original for the rest of the world, which was entirely unaware someone like her existed at all. There is, however, an underground world of others like her, a criminal empire working toward something she had been trying to stop. But with no knowledge of what the villainous plan was, who these criminals were, or how to properly use her powers, things seem grim. She knows she is the only one who can stop them, and the only backup she has is a man who claims to have been her friend from before the accident. Will she be able to train her powers up, and stop the devious master plan before it's too late?

Efferent by AaPThomps

In the process of revamping this profile and this novel... thanks for your patience! (Estimated time of arrival: 12/01/19) "What are we?" I muttered in awe. "Efferent." He cocked his head slightly to the side. "Although, I do not believe that anyone is truly like you, Ardyn Danvers. You are something different altogether. You are something far more superior." ********** In a society dictated by intellectual prowess and where your status is determined by your level of brain function, Ardyn Danvers finds herself on her knees with a historically low percentage. With few choices left to make, and a dim future ahead of her, Ardyn is resigned to joining the rest of the bottom feeders in the gutter. But when an esoteric clinic of scientists develop a serum meant to increase tested brain function, they threaten to turn the nation's establishment on its head and heighten government control. Intending to level the division between the high percentages and the low, they had expected to use the serum to bridge the gap between the undesirables at the foot of the hierarchy to the elite standing at the pinnacle. What they did not expect, however, were the side effects. ********** © 2017 AaPThomps all rights reserved. COMPLETED FIRST DRAFT. Cover by @-wanderes

Lab Rat(18+) by LovedAThousandLives

. 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**

Prodigy (Complete) by EdwardMullen

The greatest tragedy the world has ever known turned out to be the ultimate catalyst for change. In the wake of World War III, which decimated most of the world's population, the remaining survivors vowed to not continue to repeat the same mistakes of the past. Fortunately, they had something previous generations did not have - advanced technology. The year is 2117 and this once shattered civilization has become prosperous again. Innovative forms of technology have enabled them to abandon the old model and re-engineer a better way of living for all. Brain implants and genetic modifications have made an entire population educated, healthy, and kind. Despite the benefits of this technology, it has created some unforeseen side effects that threaten humankind's existence. When technology proves to be inept at solving the world's problem, a new hope emerges in the unlikeliest form - a young orphan girl. *** Cyberpunk, dystopian, technology, future, futurism, scifi, heroine, prodigy...

FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH A novel of tomorrow by LeonBerger123

It's not difficult to predict the future. Just scan today's headlines and extend the trends. Climate change, virus pandemic, terrorist threat, government surveillance, genetic engineering, corporate malpractice. Yet on a personal level, there's an issue that's perhaps even more disturbing. Identity theft. In an era of security paranoia, every aspect of our lives will be registered, from DNA to IQ, from official documentation to private finance, from medical history to psychological profile. When that information is hacked and sold, it will be the innocent victim with no credentials who'll be classified as a risk to society. This is the odyssey of one such individual, of the journey she takes and the truth that she finds.

Digit (A Mina Ashido X Male Reader Fanfic) by Dhruv_M1702

Technology. A simple word, isn't it? Well... Not really. It can be anything. Your phones, your PC, or any other device you're using to read this description. BUT... It doesn't end there. Televisions, radios, refrigerators, ovens, blah blah blah, the list goes on and on. Pretty cool, huh? Well, now, let's think of technology in a fictional world. Or even better, a fictional world, where people have gone through mutations in their very genes, giving them specific "inhumane" abilities... Coined as "quirks". In the light of such mutations, people started to bring their dreams to realities, and the concept of "heroes" and "villains" came up. Such genetic mutations spread all around and now, the mutated people, or, "quirked" people, make up about 80 percent of all human life on this fricking earth! Getting back to the point, technology surely has MUCH MORE influence and practical use in this world. Now, imagine the power to control this technology. Or, having a quirk that allows you to do so. Let's join each other and follow the journey of a young man named Y/N Colomar, who has this specific quirk. Like any other kid his age, he wants to be a hero. He just wants to help others, and see people's smiles at the end of the day. The only issue is... The dude is a complete shy introvert. Best rankings: 01/08/2024: #1 in #malereaderinsert
