Have you ever heard of Lamarck's hypothesis of acquired traits? Trust me, it's nerdy but really cool-even if it is incorrect.
The theory is pretty simple: through the use or disuse of organs, an organism acquires or loses certain traits during its lifetime.
Don't understand?
Here's a couple of examples. If an emu tried to use its useless wings for flying, it would grow bigger wings and be able to fly.
Or if a dolphin got sick of having to come up for air, it would grow gills.

This book is about Jenny Wallace. Her day was going normal and she loved her life. She had an internship at a water filtration plant for extra credit in her engineering class and finals were over.
During that day at the plant, however, something goes horribly wrong.

The Superior Rebirth: A Hero's Awakening
He was stolen before he could be named. Experimented on before he could walk. And somewhere in the shadows - an enemy has been watching him ever since. Xavier didn't choose this life. He didn't choose the prophecy, the power, or the war closing in around him. What he did choose - what he chooses every single day - are the ideals his father gave him: that love is worth dying for, and that protecting others is reason enough to keep standing. But the force hunting Xavier's world has been preparing for decades. Patient. Methodical. Always smiling. Its ambition doesn't stop at conquest or empire - it reaches for godhood itself, for the power to rewrite reality and remake the world in the image of one man's vision. A world where only the worthy survive. Where he alone decides what worthy means. One boy carrying his father's ideals. One genius who believes his vision justifies every cost. And between them - a question that cuts deeper than any blade: Is Xavier a hero because fate decided he would be? Or because he chose to be, despite everything it costs him? The Superior Rebirth is a dark fantasy epic about heroism, love, sacrifice, and the difference between the destiny you're handed and the one you carve out yourself - set against the smoke and ambition of an industrial age where power is the only currency that matters. This is not a story about becoming powerful. It is a story about becoming worthy of the people who believed in you.
Lab Rat(18+)
. 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**Abgeschlossene Geschichte

Prophecy | George Weasley (COMPLETE)
"I like you George, but I can't" "Why not?" "Because I'm going to die" •~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~ Astrid is not your typical Ravenclaw. She doesn't study, she isn't smart and she has gotten stuck out of the Common room way too many times. George Weasley fell for the girl the moment he saw her but what if that wasn't the first time he'd seen her? Or even fallen for her? Every story has a villain. Without a Villain there's no hero/ heroine. In this story our villain isn't a person but the concept of death itself. ~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~ A/N I FOUND A LOT OF IDEAS FOR THIS BOOK ON PINTEREST AND TUMBLR. Unfortunately I couldn't list them, I'll try my best to give credit to as many as I can. So if you recognize something as headcannon or a writing prompt, it's probably from Pinterest or tumblr.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in.

Amongst the Stars
My lungs and muscles burned. Everything in my body begging me to stop but I had to keep moving. I had to get away. I rather die than go back to that lab but this building was a maze! Never ending hallways and big metal sliding doors that you see in space movies. All I could hear was the patter of my bare feet, heavy breathing, and my heart beating in my ears. "Hey!!! Stop her! Whatever you do, do NOT let her get away!!" A man yelled after me but I couldn't look back. Even as I heard the whoosh of metal doors opening and the thudding of boots chasing after me.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

[ "Defective" ] | BFB/TPOT fanfic [canceled]
Ekura no longer works on this book, nothing happened i just didn't want to add unnecessary work for him, regardless you should still follow him! :] [follow ekura on twitter @ekura123] [] Subjects were made in this facility, separated into categories and put into life threatening experiments. They know they can't do much to stop this so they simply comfort each other the best ways possible. However, recently many of the subjects seem to want to know if there is anything more out there other than this facility they call home. Now, most seeking a place where they may not even be accepted in, they encounter prototypes and upgrades to ensure they stay in one place. It's only a matter of time before someone gets reset into nothing but a soulless shell, or worse, deleted forever... [] Characters are fluffy here so if you don't like it please just leave you don't need to read this I don't want to know that you don't like them :( ‼️WARNING - This book contains a lot of gore, if you dislike that then please read something else.‼️ ❗️note that there will be no warnings unless it's: suicide, forced vomiting, self harm, and other stuff but i'll make sure to put them at the top of the page!!❗️ All characters belong to JacknJellify [This is an au] ( Some characters may be OOC )Abgeschlossene Geschichte
