One sacrifices their dream. One has a misguided dream. One believes they will never achieve their dream.

People didn't want him. Nonetheless, he persevered in pursuing his dream of becoming an astronaut. Vincent went to great lengths to achieve his dream, even sacrificing his identity in order to adopt another's, but gave everything up for the guy whose identity he had borrowed. However, was it worthwhile, and who was he now without his original identity? Will Vincent uncover his true self or sacrifice everything for others?

The "accident" claimed more than just his legs; it took away his life. Struggling to survive, Eugene yearns to try another attempt-this time succeeding at death. Yet, the unsuspected presence of his borrowed-ladder is enough to refrain from trying anything under his watchful gaze. Will Eugene succeed at his misguided dream, or will he discover a new sense of life within his existence?

They always miscalculated her. It was her unfortunate genetics. Was it not? With the dream of going into space like the rest of her co-workers, Irene gazed at the rocket launches with starry eyes as well. However, inside her faulty heart, she knew she would never be able to achieve this dream because of the organ. Will Irene run to her dream rocket launch, or will she be left behind in its dust cloud?

Imperium by EssoLloydMpetha

My whole life just changed in one day. I was kidnapped by a scientist gone rogue. Experimented on with nanotechnology that could change the world as we know it. Not everyone survived these experiments. My system rejected the nano treatment, and whenever this happened, the patient died. Somehow I survived. Now I have to find a way to save my friend and several others that were taken with me. Things change when a new organization with intentions of taking all the power arises. I find that I have to work together with someone I thought was the enemy to save everybody. I learn the hard way that you can't save them all. My name is Shaun McGee and this is my story.

Extraordinary Mistakes by natalie_s_v

Two opposite sides come face to face, forcing each other to reconsider their version of the truth. *** A minority of the world's population carries a genetic modification. They are called deviants and some develop an ability by the age of seven. In the United States of America, deviants and humans fought each other in the Great War, which ended when the deviants lost. Fifteen years later, everyone lives finally in peace. But when an assassination takes place, it sets in motion several events that put Emily Roberts, the poster child of deviant integration, face to face with Rachel Moore, the leader of the terrorist group for the liberation of deviants. What is the truth and is it worth finding it out? Warning: depiction of trauma / violence / abuse.

Paragon by flamewings

COMPLETED, IN THE PROCESS OF EDITING To our creators, it was a simple plan. They would send us in, wait for us to take out the Prime Order Director, and then make sure we were never heard from again. By killing us, they would become heroes, and the world would see what we were capable of. People would see that the future was in Paragons like us. But they didn't realize just how powerful we were. They didn't count on us turning on them. Now the Prime Order wants to hide us from the world. They want us to forget who we are and what we can do. They think they can succeed in controlling us, but they won't. Our creators will come for us, but when they do, we'll be ready. They may have their machines and their weapons, but we have each other. And we have our powers. We are Paragons. We are Skyfall. In a future where genetic modification and robotic armor suits are commonplace, Katana Wilder just wants peace for herself and her adopted family. She wants to forget her years of training as an assassin and live a normal life. But when the company that created them comes back for revenge, she must put aside her reservations and fight for her freedom.

Payne & Joie by Rose_Vincent

Joie is a failure of science. At least to her father, a once-renowned geneticist, she is. Where Joie was supposed to be tall, she is short. Where her eyes are supposed to be green, they are strange yellow-gold. Where she is supposed to be smart, she is simply... average. Joie is left trying to find meaning through her art and the consequences of being genetically altered. But when a fellow "failure" -a golden-haired boy calling himself Payne- presents evidence of others like her, Joie knows she cannot stand and wait around for her father to come back any longer. Especially when her father's actions go too far. UPDATED EVERY DAY Instagram: RoseVincentWrites

The Underbelly (First Draft) by opaqueice

He was involved in my mother's murder and every major crime in the Surface society. The catch? He is also my father. My advantage? I've been genetically engineered for this job. My disadvantage? So is my father. This should be fun.

Outbreak: The Extinction Chronicles by jhepong24

"It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change." - Charles Darwin Amidst the nuclear war, popularly known as World War III, mankind had also been struck with a weaponized viral disease, decimating what's left of the human population. With his memory lost under the perilous fallout, Gabriel was saved by two other survivors. And together, they strived in a modified nuclear shelter away from the heavily infested cities. They thought they were living a safe and well-sustained life. Until one day, they found out the most shocking discovery, the truth that pushed Gabriel in a heart-stopping journey of his life. He would travel hundreds of miles of the post-apocalyptic world lurking with unknown dangers, including the hordes of infected and bandits alike. He would then come across other survivors, struggling to preserve their lives and ideals. However, as pieces of his memory came rolling back, conflicts of priorities defied even the most basic rules of their survival. Will Gabriel, and the people he have come to cherish, outlive the apocalypse? Or will they perish, and go through... extinction?

Every prototype technology has its risks. After an accident involving a novel robotic suit, Keres cadet Sky begins to have recurring lucid nightmares where she finds herself in a prison called Tartaros.

Meanwhile, more and more mysterious accidents shake the city of Pharos to the core, threatening the safety and security of the last surviving humans on earth. Through her own accident, Sky finds herself drawn into the investigation of an enigmatic task force.

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.
