In 2175, the world has been devastated by a war for resources that has left cities in ruins, skies covered in ash, and millions dead. The survivors fight for food and resources, forming militias and gangs to try and eke out an existence in the post-apocalyptic wasteland. Among them are Phantom, Noah, Maya, Karma, and Connor, with Phantom serving as the main protagonist.

Phantom is an enigmatic figure, going by his code-name and keeping his real name a secret from even his closest friends. He's highly skilled, both physically and mentally, and has a love of swords and firearms. He's also outfitted with a suit of power armor and has the ability to remain stealthy, making him a formidable opponent.

Aegis International, a former military company, has survived the war and now protects what's known as the "Last City," a bastion of civilization in an otherwise chaotic world. However, the Last City is not the only place of civilization left, and Aegis must constantly fend off attacks from raiders and other factions that want to take what they have.

Phantom and his friends don't work for Aegis but have a good relationship with the corporation. However, the wasteland is full of dangers, including natural disasters, cults, and infected sickness. The gangs and factions that roam the land are just as dangerous, engaging in gun dealing, torture, and other nefarious activities. There are also mutant, zombified, and other infected creatures roaming the land, as well as paranormal activities that keep people on edge.

As Phantom and his friends navigate the dangers of the wasteland, they'll encounter new allies and enemies, each with their own unique motivations and abilities. Meanwhile, Aegis will face its own challenges, including betrayal and internal strife, as they fight to maintain control of the Last City and keep civilization alive.

The Lost and the Dead Book 1: The Uprising by BountyHunterVick1230
29 parts Complete Mature
It has been many years since mankind has seen the horrors that was the Uprising: an unforeseen event which has caused mankind's demise, as the unknown virus spreads like a wildfire all throughout the globe while humanity turns on itself in order to survive, leaving those unlucky face-to-face with the virus to turn into ravenous, cannibalistic zombies. In the old ruins of North America, it has turned into a lawless land where the zombies prey on the weak with the thugs and criminals lurking around the corners to pick off what remains. However, through the hellfires of the apocalypse, a legend was born out from redemption, revenge and determination; a bounty hunter named Hunter Vick. Join him on his journey as he travels through the vast wastelands in order to stop a civil war between his two biggest clients, uncover the secrets of a hidden faction which threatens to destroy everything, and overcome a personal obstacle which has haunted him for years. With the weight of the world on his shoulders, Hunter is the lone ranger, the only one that could possibly save everyone from their eventual demise if nothing changes. He will have to overcome some of the greatest obstacles in his life from mutations to Hunter killers to morale questionings. Can Hunter muster the strength required to save everyone, or will he fall like the billions of other survivors before him? He doesn't have much time, his sanity is running out, and his will to live will be put to the ultimate test in what it truly means to live up to your fate and destiny. But it doesn't really matter now, because in this cruel, twisted world, there are two types of people: the ones who are lost, and the ones who are dead.
L.O.V.E. by denissebloom04
30 parts Complete
100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)
Class Freak by wxnderland_addict
12 parts Ongoing
Mutants have existed long enough to be properly integrated into society, but not long enough for everyone to have accepted them. Outside of the United States, a hub for mutant immigrants fleeing the oppressive laws of their own countries, fear of mutant syndrome bleeds through the cracks in mysterious deaths, obnoxious court rulings, and social isolation. It isn't all sunshine and rainbows in America, either ⸻ some states are more progressive than others, and it's a constant battle over who has what rights and where. But there is one class of mutants that nearly everyone can agree on avoiding: Class F. The Freaks. For awkwardly tall and perpetually oblivious homeschooler Noah Kirby, all that exists is his house and the little graveyard on his street in North Carolina. When the opportunity comes along to enroll as a first-year at F Class Academy, an up-and-coming school for the most dangerous mutants of the generation, it means opening his eyes to an entirely new world, one where mutant life isn't as easy as he thought it was. Noah has three goals to ensure his start at FCA goes smoothly: 1. Befriend his moody Ability Management partner Amaris, so that they don't both risk failing the class, 2. Get to the bottom of why he keeps waking up surrounded by dissected corpses, and 3. Make it through the year without getting killed by one of his classmates' disastrous accidents. It may sound impossible, but with a dash of optimism and the help of a lot of new friends, he's confident he can make it work. FCA is nothing like he's ever seen before, but it can't be so scary. At the end of the day, mutant highschoolers are just like any other highschoolers... right? [ This story is unabashedly inspired by franchises I liked when I was a kid. I'm mostly writing it just for fun and for my friends to read, but if you also liked stuff like the X-Men, Percy Jackson, and Ever After High, you might have a fun time too! ]

198 parts Ongoing Mature
This is a direct continuation of my first book. (Hazbin Hotel) The Radio Demon and The Doe-Eyed Killer So if you haven't read that book yet, go read it because you will be VERY confused if you don't! I know year 2020 has already come and gone for us...but not for the residents of the Hazbin Hotel! With that in mind here's a series of questions that will hopefully have some answers by the end of this book! Just who is this mysterious nephew of Draegan Dread? What are his plans? Is he a friend or foe? Will Gabriel go past the fifteen cups of coffee limit? Will he talk Michael into another long-standing debate about coffee's benefits to humanity-without giving him a direct answer as to how many cups of coffee he actually drank? Will Azrael go on strike-for real this time? Will his be questioning God and Raphael's sanity, all while his siblings are questioning his own by the end of 2020? Will Raphael's faith in humanity using their common-sense about COVID-19 be terribly misplaced? Will humanity adhere to the COVID-19 protocols he helped the governments create to fight off this pandemic? Will Michael finally lose his own sanity over his brother's antics, and from the pandemonium going on within Creation to actually visit Hell for once...just to get away from it all? Will Xander come to cause more havoc? Only to find that he's becoming unbelievably BORED with his normal routine and accidentally make some actual friends! Will Xander ever come to see Clementine as his little sister instead of just a curious form of new chaotic entertainment?

(REWRITING) The Skylar Experiment : Coveting by NoppityNope666
100 parts Complete Mature
"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.
