After Surviving The Apocalypse, I Built A City In Another World
[Congratulations, Terranian survivor #99598, for activating the Universe Assistance System!] Althea, along with the remaining 1% of the population of their home planet, stared at the holographic screen in front of them in confusion. Their galaxy was apparently ending, and suddenly announcements from an alien system appeared in their heads, telling them they would be permanently transfered to another world. The survivors were all very depressed. First they were forced to survive in a zombie apocalypse, and now they had to survive a new world altogether? It just so happened that Althea was one of the few people who got the Lord Token, the ticket to controlling a territory---a supposed safe haven for her people. Althea looked at her very large stomach and sighed at an unknown future. Would she be able to build a good home for her children and fellowmen? And... would she and her husband find each other again after this disaster? ___ Contracted with Webnovel.

And she was drawn to me. ---------------- Traversing through the realms of movies and books to find the Zodiac Cure, a universal generator built of impossibly hard to find objects to fix all worlds of all dimensions, the daughter of the ruler of the Interworld and the son of nobody actually existent find themselves growing closer to each other in a way never felt before as they achieve the impossible, learn that love is not just a term for simple human relationships, and meet and befriend unusual people and creatures from simple human-told stories. --------- Claire Riley is only her character name.

Sentilia
Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351. She's always been fascinated with how humans used to live in houses, drive cars, and the fact that there used to be forests and parks everywhere. Now, after a war that nearly erased humanity, people are forced to live a strict, dull, communist lifestyle. Everyone seems okay with this way of life. Everyone except Maxine. Maxine had always been special; she was often able to predict events. How? She didn't exactly know...yet. When she starts having dreams about a tropical island where people live as they did in the 21st century, she meets the man of her dreams: literally. Her new boiling emotions bring her to wonder...what if it's a real place? When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination. Finding that island could mean finding the answers to her burning questions, and maybe even answers to questions she didn't know she had. However, not everything is what she thought it would be when she finally finds the island, and her dreams become a harsh reality. Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is. The Advisors, the ten women governing the world, want to assimilate the people of the island, not knowing that those people have an extreme advantage over them. Maxine also learns that her family has been lying to her about who she really is. Ultimately, when the Advisors come to destroy the island, she must face the fact that she is the key to the island's salvation, and embracing her rapidly developing abilities is the only way to do so.Complete
MOTHERS
AMERICAN HORROR STORY meets THE HANDMAID'S TALE with a bit of WESTWORLD weaved in Four women, fresh out of a super secret governmental experiment, are dragged back into the laboratory where they lived--to save the world from the specimens they helped produce. ***** It's 2050, and the world--in particular the not-so-United States of America--has undergone a lot of changes. A dictator who refuses to relinquish his presidential power reigns over the country, and humans--especially women--see their rights diminished more and more each day. Some are forced to enter special programs to stay safe from men who seek to harm them, and others accept to be part of freaky experimental trials in back-alley labs for a bit of cash to pay the rent. Four women who participated in one such trial--one *actually* sanctioned by the US government--are coping with their new lives when a member of said lab comes to find them, to let them know that the experiment they participated in has gone awry... and they are the only ones who can help fix it all. *TRIGGER WARNING for gore, violence (especially towards women, but NOT domestic abuse), oppression (to women, mostly), explicit language, possible sexual situations inappropriate for readers under 18.

What She Left Behind ✔️
"I'm assuming that little speech was meant for me?" "It was meant for everyone." "But mostly me. Is it because I called her selfish earlier? Are you still hung up on that?" "I'm not hung up on anything, Gemma." "Then why would you go up there and say that?" I demand, my voice rising above a whisper. "Of all days, why would you choose today to publicly humiliate me?"

"When I awoke, all I could see was the white ceiling. The blinding light seared into my mind and made me squint. But I couldn't see them anymore. The thoughts that floated in my mind were not of my own. My mind was empty, like a blank slate, all things wiped clean. There was nothing there anymore. The whispers were silent, my brain functioning clear. My memories were gone." ⚙️ Pro 1 knows nothing of her past, nothing of herself. All she knows is the name she was given by those men in the white cloaks, and the fact that she has this robotic voice in her head. She also knows that she is more than half-robot now.

Word Count: 105,000 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ He turned slowly back, dreary eyes meeting mine. The towering man was nearly seven feet tall and all bulging muscles. His hair was dark and cut long skimming his smooth angled jaw. Brows watching me with the same intensity as I was watching him. Very lovely rich tan color. Shirtless and barefoot, but wearing simple leather pants, with some kind of pack hanging to his hip. Stomach raw with some deep gash and body littered with cuts. The entire picture of him was genuinely mouthwateringly handsome, but with the dagger still held in one hand entirely too deadly. "Stay right there Dothraki!" I called, my rifle finally having something in the crosshairs again. I'd never watched the popular show, but the videos I saw sure had him looking like he could play one of the built characters. The dagger dropped to the ground and he fell to a single knee after it, though he didn't bend to pick it up. He bent to ...bow? His head stayed inclined as he bent and spoke. His voice was smooth and husky, deep and baritone. Exceptionally beautiful. "Earth female safe." 1st in Aliens: 09/21Complete
Awaken Book 3: The Rise of Knonus
Preparations started surprisingly fast. It's amazing how motivating the threat of total annihilation can be. Allen smiled as he looked at everyone preparing for war and evacuating to defense shelters. Madison looked on in some bit of awe, men she would have pegged as petty crooks working side by side with cops and normal citizens. "Do you think we'll make it?" She turns to SupaSound. "We have to." He says, frowning. President Jack is on multiple phone lines calling the leaders of multiple other nations and telling them what's going on, what needs to be done, and how to go about doing it. The tension on his face easing whenever a nation pledges its support for this war. "Things might finally be looking u-" Tthey are interrupted by deranged chuckling, as it gets louder and louder, they see Timothy, smiling widely as he holds the struggling vice president and the vice president's wife by the neck in each hand. "Well isn't this cute, weak little nothings like you, gathering together to try and stop a god?" "He's not unstoppable, he was defeated before, we'll do it again, humans have caught up, I suggest you put those two down, unless you want a demonstration." Timothy smirks, "But I want a demonstration!!" He laughs and squeezes, SupaSound's suit activates, forming around him as he launches forward on sound waves before concentrating a blast at Timothy's face. Timothy disappears, dropping the VP and his wife. Madison sprung into action, barely catching them. "They're still alive!" She yells. Then, a line appears, from the sky to the White House, a line so dark it rejects reality, and is rejected in turn, time-space begins to distort around it, the world bending. SupaSound charges forward, even though he won't make it, he has to. Finally, the black portal cracks open, and the world around him explodes in blinding red light, followed by a voice."Was that humanity's best? I'd laugh if it wasn't so sad..."Complete
