"They lurk in the shadows and are seen in the daylight. Nothing can stop them, and they never will stop pursuing. You cannot outrun them, and you cannot hide. They smell the fear withering inside. We raise our guns, our swords, and fists. We fight for survival, but it's an endless list. We swallow our fear residing within, and we push forward, even if we are unfit."

Iseya wakes with amnesia. Her core memories of the world were wiped out. And if that's not bad enough, an AI names ARY replays instructions of this "new world" without telling her what's wrong with the world.

She needs to train for something. Weapons are handed to her, one on one combat, and guns are pushed to her chest. But she doesn't know why and is too afraid to ask. Her fear of leaving this safe and secure place overrides telling anyone she has no memories.

Therefore, she trains under the watchful eye of her Team Leader.

Will Iseya survive her first encounter outside? Or will she die not knowing anything about her, the voices in her head, or how this world came to be?

[COMPLETED] •Being revised... AGAIN (Progress: Intro-Chap. 3)• "We're going back... Understand? There are more threats out here than we anticipated, and they're all after you-" Lukas' voice erupted into static and chunks... I glared at the man in all black as the light continued to beam and blind me. Without my glasses it was actually painful. And then there was silence. My bare feet hit the metal floor of wherever we had jumped to, and I put my hand up to shield my eyes from the vicious attack of bright light. Not again." Alexi Callidus is living in a post-apocalyptic world... In the 25th Century. The year is 2470. She's been surviving on her own for 4 years and 8 months inside the same building with her only companion without seeing the sun. 5 years after the brutal unexplained murder of her family. 7 years after the genetic disaster of "GASP". 7 years and 4 months after the War of Nations. Everything seems to be barren and empty... But if her super old sci-fi movies didn't teach her that looks deceive, nothing will. Technology, before "GASP" (Genetically Altered Soldiers Program) and the War of Nations, was insane. You could be teleported in the blink of an eye, or healed from a once fatal injury in days. With the majority of the population infected with a viral genetic plague, almost any of the survivors could access this technology... Including Alexi. When a simple quest for survival turns into a journey of a lifetime, will Alexi be able to survive the weight of the gruesome truth when she finally uncovers it? Will our heroine be able to fade into the background and live a quiet life of cunning? Or burst into flames in a sudden blaze of tragedy? -Callidus Rising- •This book's sequel is in progress (Curing Revolution) Highest Ranks: •#1 "secretsocieties" •#1 "armageddon" •#2 "famine" •#2 "plague" •#3 "explorer" •#4 "genetic-engineering" •#5 "artificial intelligence" Com

Augments - digital implants and robotic prostheses - can enhance abilities, bestow entirely new ones, or replace parts of the body that have been broken or injured. At least they used to, before they were declared illegal during the Purge. But augments were never meant to replace parts of the human brain. So when her brain got damaged beyond organic repair, she was fixed using other parts of machines. And they ended up saving more of her than just her physical body, as one day, she found herself no longer alone inside the expanse of her own mind. Amy Larsson is many things. A covert augment. An escaped slave. An infamous space pirate. A spy for New Elysium. A terrorist. An overall badass bitch to be reckoned with - rumor has it she can hot-wire anything with just a rubber band and a bobby pin. But what not even the android crew of her ship, the Blackstar, is aware of, is the fact that Amy Larsson is even more than that: she is two people, in one body. And they are planning to commit the most audacious heist of the galaxy. _______________ Featured on Wattpad Beyond Sol's "Sunflower Space Opera" reading list First Place in the The Chaos Awards 4 (Science Fiction) [2018-07-21] Third Place in The Rebel Awards 2018 (Science Fiction) [2018-09-16] Highest Rankings: #2 in SpaceTravel [28.02.2019] #8 in SpaceOpera [28.02.2019] #9 in Cyborg [28.02.2019] #14 in Mind [28.02.2019] #15 in Space [28.02.2019] #42 in FemaleProtagonist [28.02.2019] #54 in Science Fiction [07.05.2018] Spin-off story / prequel to @Red_Leasia 's "New Elysium": https://www.wattpad.com/story/106699395-new-elysium We're co-writing the sequel "New Elysium 2 - Weapons of War" on our shared profile @New_Elysium

✎ "I could've killed you that night and I didn't. I had my gun to your head ready to drain the life from you, but I didn't." His eyes averted mine, and I saw an opening in them, something I wouldn't even have considered looking for if I was still overcome by anger. "Why didn't you?" I asked, watching him as he began to play with his sleeve cuffs in a way that I knew was unique to him. "Because I know what it's like to fight for something you love. Killing you would have just made me no different than another monster who lost themselves in the fight." He continued, "And I saw something in you I haven't seen in myself in a while- fire." ✎ Two unlikely allies ─ a fiery, hot-headed spy and a slick, calculating conman ─ are forced to team up to track down a dangerous criminal and uncover why sensitive information is being leaked. But as their pursuit pulls them deeper into a web of betrayal and deception, they discover that the whistleblower is just the beginning. Hidden in the shadows lies a not-so-human world-and with it, a truth neither of them is prepared to face. Along the way, their undeniable (yet endlessly denied) attraction threatens to ignite, even as the world around them begins to unravel.
