Anodyne is a well known meddler back on Olympus.  Infamous for his yellow rain slick, his clever troublemaking along with his partner in crime, the anxious Wizard Divinocus. Traveling by Kite, who does not get along with the old Zard but puts up with him for Anodyne's sake, the trio attempt to gain entry into the Forbidden Iteration, sailing from island to island floating around in the ocean of time and space. 

But the gods have called upon him for a job. Accept it or be punished for all his 'meddling crimes'. For you see Anodyne's older brother, The Golden Boy Halcyon, had been previously tasked with tending to this Forbidden Iteration, but has since gone missing. 

Too good to be true?  After all, Rebecca, Anodyne's girlfriend, just so happens to be trapped within it's ivy covered red brick walls, the same which Anodyne and Divinocus have tried again and again to break into, and the gods are just going to let them in?

Things become even more dire, when Anodyne learns of a strange red smoke spreading throughout the island, whose walls extend without end, is threatening to change everything it touches, and he already lost Rebecca once before.

One last question: How much 'energy' would it take for humanity to invent 'real' gods? And what would those gods be like?

15 parts Ongoing
Adrian, a 21-year-old game developer, had just graduated from college with a guaranteed position at one of the country's largest game development companies, but instead of his dream coming true, it ended in a car accident after his graduation party. When he woke up, Adrian found himself in the body of a 17-year-old high school student. To his surprise, this guy wasn't graduating from an ordinary school, but from one of the gods! Having taken over the body of a young god, Adrian had thousands of ideas on how to use his divinity of creativity to get as many believers as possible. Adrian realized a great way to get thousands of believers quickly. "Can't I use my deity to make games and ask for prayers for believers to play my games? Do my believers need something to fight monsters with? I'll make a game where they can capture monsters that will fight for them and evolve! Do a red fire dragon, a blue water turtle, and a green plant frog look familiar? It's just a coincidence. Is my believer's technology too weak? What changes can an intelligent AI assistant bring to people's lives? When the God of Lightning decided to invade the realm of my believers, the creatures he encountered left him speechless. "The God of Creativity wasn't weak? Where did so many powerful monsters come from?" The God of Thunder cried out in despair. "I'm no longer the God of Creativity, I'm now the God of the Internet!" Adrian said with a smile as he ordered his followers to attack the enemy army. From the young god with the weakest and most underestimated divinity in the class, who no one believed could graduate, to the god the other gods can only look up to. This is the journey of Adrian, the God of the Internet. Join the discord at: discord.gg/NunuXD

It is his mission to wipe out what remains of humanity in a few short weeks, sparing only those with a thirst for knowledge and moral character. After becoming a journalist, Pearl was mocked online, arrested for trespassing, and challenged globally for her conspiracy theories.

She hopes that by getting closer to Dumuzi, she might be able to change his mind about humanity, as he is a councilman with power. But it isn't going to be easy. Communicating? It's difficult for her. And he is cold, wary of humans, and has weeks left to live due to an illness that plagues him.

Vacation in Damnation by gunshyboo
4 parts Ongoing Mature
A year ago, the world was destroyed by ancient gods, summoned by a cabal of wealthy elites who sought to reshape reality. Their dark ritual unleashed vengeful deities who twisted Earth into a nightmarish landscape where magic rules, technology crumbles, and humanity struggles to survive. Familiar places became deadly realms. Forests turned into dark, sentient labyrinths, lakes teemed with krakens, and the skies became the domain of dragons and harpies. Cities either crumbled or transformed into dungeon-like ruins filled with traps and monstrous inhabitants. Survivors cower, avoiding the gaze of mind flayers, beholders, and the undead, while fiendish creatures openly harvest souls for their infernal masters. In this terrifying new world, Marcus Graves, a former soldier turned necromancer, fights to relax. Armed with dark powers, he raises the dead to protect himself against the horrors that roam the earth. But Marcus isn't just trying to survive-he's determined to enjoy the vacation he and his girlfriend, Sarah, had always planned. Tragically, Sarah died on day one of the apocalypse, but Marcus wasn't ready to let their plans fall apart. he resurrected her, but she isn't quite the same. Sarah's a bit slow, her reactions sluggish, and her memories foggy, but she's still the companion Marcus needed for their planned vacation. Together, they travel the nightmare world, visiting the sights they'd always planned to see-despite their now-destroyed state. Whether it's the ruined remains of famous landmarks, crumbling cities, or the corrupted beauty of nature, Marcus and Sarah are determined to check off every destination on their list, finding dark humor in the grim reality around them. Even in a world overrun by gods and monsters, they carry out their now hellish vacation, where survival is the ultimate game, Marcus and Sarah are just trying to kick back and enjoy the ride-even if the world is falling apart around them.

*Completed* Ranked #1 in alienplanet in Jan 20 2020 Please, LISTEN TO ME!! I know you think I'm crazy and I know they told you I'm dangerous, but you have to just listen!! My people are dying! They are being killed, ruthlessly slaughtered by the millions!! I know exactly who is doing it too-but it doesn't make any sense. I don't understand why they are doing it. Please help me, help us!! To whoever gets this message, I can't do anything from here-please! I am begging you!! Please-just get me off this damn planet!! [END TRANSMISSION] ------------------- Earth is not alone in harboring life. The galaxies and universes have been opened, and all the intelligent beings residing in them have been connected and unified with each other. It has been over a million years since the Pentaverse, a cluster of five neighboring universes, was organized and unified. Now, hundreds of otherworldly species live in relative harmony with the one another. The unification was good for many species, but for some species, the change caused unexpected extinction. As a team of the Conservation of Species Committee investigates a mysterious decrease in the population of a robotic species, they stumble upon something that could potentially result in the destruction of the entire Pentaverse. This is not your average Wattpad story about how the 'bad boy meets the good girl'. This book is about a series of mysteries that begin to unfold as you read and travel through space with a group of unsuspecting aliens. This story will make you laugh, it will shock you, surprise you, and it will leave you hungry for more-all the way to the last word. Be aware, there are some adult themes in this book including drinking, swearing, love making, death, and murder. None of those topics are explored too deeply however, so I do not think it is appropriate to give this book a 'mature' rating. *********** @2020wattyawards
