A prequel of sorts of The Skylar Experiment focusing on life in Oakwood before Riley came along. It shows the twins over the years, their dynamic with Raymond and the evolution of Lauren as she started to uncover the existence of NIO before everyone else found out, as well as the events leading up to her disappearance. It's also about her life after leaving Oakwood, navigating the organization's system while the rest of her family believes she is dead. 

This prequel less formal, and it's also for me to explore different writing styles. I'll be doing flashbacks, third person POV, sometimes first person but when the characters are very young. I'll be doing my best all the time on the parts that matter, but you might see sometimes less description of a setting or time and the reader is just situated immediately instead. 

It's more like catching relevant glimpses of the past. For those who are curious, enjoy! One day I might come back on it and make it as smooth as the main story and timeline.All Rights Reserved

The Skylar Experiment : The "X" in Apex by NoppityNope666

---Book of the Month 2018 winner in the sci-fi category from awardofthemonth2018--- ---1st place winner in teen fic Writer's Circle Awards by concinnitycircle--- A/N: This book is action-packed with a sprinkle of mystery all wrapped in a science-fiction teen drama! I know. It's quite a mouthful. Cue the summary! *** Skylar is born with predetermined odds against her. She's been isolated since birth from her true nature and her peers in the name of an experiment. A change of plans cause the people in charge to order her relocation to Oakwood, a microscopic town swarming with mutants like her. They silently follow her journey as Riley is confronted to strange locals, a boy that hates her guts and nightmarish monsters lurking around her house. Throughout the series, she slowly but surely discovers truths about herself she could never fathom... and that there is a daunting trap waiting to snap. One life. One experiment. Endless lies. Some cussing and violence invovled. THIS IS THE FIRST BOOK OF A SERIES AND IT GETS PROGRESSIVELY DARKER 😈 Disclaimer : My story is inspired from Jennifer Armentrout's series Lux (basically, credits to her because this wouldn't exist otherwise). There are many differences but also several similarities. The plot isn't centered the same, either way. I just have fun writing and twisting up my favorite elements.

All Yours by Invincibec

-If my memory serves correctly, it's been 12 hours since I was kidnapped.- * * * Haley Parker had everything. The perfect family, friends, boyfriend - what more could she want? If only she had learned to be a little more cautious when turning her back to the earth's shadows. Just as things may be falling into place in her life as an adult, she suddenly finds herself across the country, away from home, from everything she's ever known, with nothing but unfamiliar places and her kidnapper not too far away. But perhaps she isn't completely ripped away from everything familiar to her. When Griffin Johnson, her previous boyfriend before he moved 3000 miles away to the west coast, finds her wasted in a bar in California, he knows something is very wrong. And when Haley can't remember a thing, they're both left in the dark as her kidnapper continues to lurk nearby ready to strike again - this time without the intention of messing up. Will they figure out who Haley's kidnapper is and capture him? Or will she return home without her memory of that night, the knowledge of who turned her life upside down, or even her one true love? * * * -An American poet by the name of Walt Whitman once said, “Keep your face towards the sunshine and shadows will fall behind you.” If only I learned not to take things so literally maybe I wouldn’t be in the mess I am right now. It didn’t even matter that I was carrying my so-called ‘trusty’ pocket knife.- Sequel to Not His. (A Shorter Story)

(REWRITING) The Skylar Experiment : Coveting by NoppityNope666

"Three weeks. That's how long I got to have drama-free. I'm not sure what is happening to me or to Oakwood. Nothing's the same since I rolled into town and it just keeps getting weirder. Suspicious agents in suits roam the streets without an explanation. They're staring straight at me. The new Chemistry teacher is NOT who he says he is. I'm doing things I never thought I could. Like, mutant-level things... Lauren, Luc's dead twin sister, hid something from everyone. Something important that may have lead to her demise and that could lead to ours. Hunters are in town. I never knew four words could contain so much dread and terror. I'd rather deal with the Wanderers. I'm on the brink of a breakdown. I need help..." BOOK #2 IN THE SERIES! Ignorance is not bliss... In the wake of ridding Oakwood of Wanderers, other dangers come creeping in and they're somehow linked to Luc's absent twin. The past returns to haunt the mutants in inconspicuous ways. Riley's life is yet again in jeopardy, but this time she's not alone. Luc and his family are all thrown into the teetering balance. More secrets are uncovered. A trap dawns on them all. Invisible threats start crawling from all directions. Who is the real enemy? TW : behaviours of depression and PTSD are displayed. I don't name them, but one of the character will be struggling a lot. It may not be suitable for everybody. Other adult matters are briefly included, but nothing explicit or intense. Rewriting specifications : the main points of the story and end of the book will remain the same, am just going to change a few ways of getting there and adding some extra spice. Feel free to pause the read until the REWRITING sign disappears.

Wrong dose by strlna

When twins Skylar and Jake were born, their scientist parents used them as an experiment. Each was injected with a dose of serum that would supposedly make them much stronger, smarter, simply better than other kids. But somebody added a chemical that changed the effects of the serum. As a result each twin got only half of the traits they were originally supposed to get. Skylar got the strength and speed while Jake got the brains. When they realized what had happened, the twins' parents immediately put them up for adoption, so neither one knew of the other. 12 years later Skylar is constantly failing all her classes, and Jake is getting bullied because he is so much weaker than other kids. But then Skylar's adoptive family decides to move across the country to find a new school for their daughter, which happens to be the school Jake goes to. They meet completely by accident. In the meantime, their parents have found a way to fix their mistake from 12 years ago -- they can make one of the twins perfect. But it requires for the other twin to give their life.

The Flight To Death by dr4106

A plane which went missing twenty six years back has suddenly come back from nowhere. Read on to find out where it was, and what happened to the passengers in the plane. The plot focuses on a family of four who were in the plane, and the chilling experiences they have after the plane went missing, their struggles for survival in a place they don't know and lots more. Readers are the motivation for writers to give bigger and better content. I humbly request everyone who read this story to kindly share your views on the story, so that I can make the upcoming parts better. I'm sure many of you would love this, because I've put a lot of hard work into thinking various sequences in this story. Also, I'm new to writing, so suggestions about grammar are most welcome. Thank you :)

NUMBER THREE. by caribou652

I couldn't breathe. I couldn't see. An intense bubbling pressure filled my mind and a burning pain filled my body like lava. Was I moving? Fighting? I couldn't even tell. The pain is unbearable, and I have never felt so detached from my mind ever before. Is this death? All at once the fiery burning pain that filled my veins turned to ice, and a new pain formed, sending my body into a shock. I could feel my teeth chattering like a woodpecker on wood, and hear it slightly also; Why can I shiver but not scream? My thoughts didn't carry far, as I felt my body come slightly back into my control, the pain still under my skin and ears ringing. I started thrashing and yelling due to my new found control of my body. My voice sounded foreign to my ears, and came out more a gargle than a yell, something was in my mouth. I felt hands against my arms, restraining me and voices speaking quickly and hushed. A sharp pain in my neck brought me darkness and the pain finally stopped. Number Three is thrown into a confusing trial of tests regarding her new found abilities and developments, although she is left with no memory of what was before. All she knows is that her existence is for Project Interitus, or that's at least what the doctors who run the facility say. Luckily for her she isn't alone in these new found discoveries, three colleagues join her, One, Four, and Seven. All of them are wary and unsure of the facility in which they stay, nor trusting of the people who run the trials, as they continue to dismiss and silence any questions or thoughts they have regarding how they came to be or what they're there for. Memories resurface, and curiosity grows stronger as this group of test subjects become closer and more intuitive, making it more of a challenge for them to be controlled without rebellion. What is the purpose of her abilities? Will Three ever regain her memories of the past or did she never have one to begin with? Lets just hope she survives.

We're Not Related Anymore... by ElizaJGrant

In which two ex-step-siblings reconnect after just about blowing up their family the first time around... Three years ago, Maddie fell hard for Jacob Isaacs, the smartest boy in her school. The only problem was this: Her dad had quite literally gotten engaged to his mother. The two tried to dampen the flames of their burgeoning attraction for each other but not before they got caught and were the talk of the town for months. After the fall out, Maddie moved away to try and start her life over and not be known as the girl who got caught doing it with her 'brother' at prom. She hasn't seen her family in ages and intends to keep things that way. Jacob, on the other hand, has worked hard to accomplish everything he's ever dreamed of. He's stayed close to home, done exceptionally well at school, and is adored by just about everyone who meets him. There's only one problem: There's a Maddie-shaped hole where his heart used to be. But no matter how hard he tries to reach out and find her, he can't. She won't let him. He let her down and gave up on them when she needed him most. And she's not ready to forgive and forget. But then Maddie's dad passes and she's forced to come home for his funeral. It should be a quick visit. She intends to make it one. But Jacob has other plans. He let his girl slip through his fingers once and he won't let that happen again. So now he has to convince her to give him one more chance. After all, they're not related to each other anymore.

ROTWOTA: Book 3 - Resistance, Rebellion, and Revenge by BenGamer2496

I recommend reading the first two parts before this! After only two weeks into the anthro takeover, things have gone right and wrong on both sides. Emma, Cody, Eric, and many more human and engine survivors have fought to escape to a safe haven within the Biltmore estate and village in North Carolina. However, with tension between new and old faces slowly arising, everyone will inevitably have to face the war in order to survive, or at least make it out while staying themselves, physically and mentally. Meanwhile, on the opposite side, June and her friends and family just fighting to stay alive slowly begin to realize they're more important than they think. As not long after, they're forced back into battle to help continue their part in bringing about the end of the human race. However, many don't realize at first that they have more in common than they think. All they know is that many of those they've been acquainted with will likely make it out alive or as themselves. Now it's up to them to partner with their new and old friends and equate one another as allies against powerful forces in order to protect themselves, and all they ever cared about before it's too late. Inspired by the works of: TidmouthThunderbolt/_Frogz Shanks Sodor Fallout Studios Lucat_here ChloeTgTf Truck_of_Tar ThomasProductions2019 Tines Sensathe PATBP The Duffer Brothers (And many more YouTube and Wattpad creators, this list is longer than I remember and I don't want to let it take up the description, please forgive me I ran out of allowed characters) Warning: This story contains mature themes such as swearing, death, themes of war, gore depictions, highly racist actions and symbolism, and more. I recommend you be 13 years or older to read this story. ALSO, DO NOT STEAL ANY OF THE OC CHARACTERS (but I do confess that there are some characters that I don't own and I'd like to apologize to those owners that I didn't credit you all😬). Enjoy the third part of the ROTPOTA series!
