The mission is supposed to be easy. Mika and his gang of real-estate crooks only have to infiltrate a high-rise building and steal secret codes for a client. But the building is the ZENITH, the most fortified residential tower around, the codes are a prized secret for ending housing issues, and the client may be weaving a scheme they don't want to be in. In exchange for competitive pay, the gang has to complete the mission, keep their bonds from falling apart, and escape without strings attached, even if they have to unravel their pasts along the way.

The Beauty And The Heist by Lisa-Stone

Highest Rank #1 in Action 14/6/16 Chevron Raynes 'accidentally' hacks into her college mainframe and finds blueprints to a billion dollar satellite belonging to none other than the Mafia. As if that wasn't bad enough, when the blueprints and a certain Professor go missing, Chevron is thrown under the Mafia's radar. Soon she's running for her life with not one but three Mafias behind her, in a race to get the blueprints. Adrian DeLuca is a genius who has a talent for psychology and manipulation. He may be the youngest Mafia Boss ever, but his raw ambition and ruthlessness scares people twice as old as him. So what happens when his only chance of getting the billion dollar blueprint is a headstrong, intelligent little girl who was probably just in the wrong place at the wrong time? An adventure where the two unlikely allies travel the globe to solve cryptic clues and pull off the heist of the century without killing each other. Laced with humor and romance. *Strong Language* I wrote this when I was 16. Cut me some slack.

The God Codex by evacharya

2081. In a sinister world where human survival hinges on biotechnology, an oblivious sixteen-year-old possesses the one code to undo it all. Can she survive the devious world designed to eliminate anything - anyone - out of the ordinary before it's too late? Mia Love is nothing extraordinary. Just another teenager who wants to please her mother, make snide comments, and become an artist - if it's not too much to ask. But in her rigid, military world, she must do as everyone does; attend the stupid graduation camp that will assign her a boring job. One night, she wakes to a voice telling her to 'Get out. Run'. Moments later, in an eerie midnight camp gathering, she's trapped amid chaos -- bloodied and fighting for her life - when the harmless teens turns on one another; school against school, student against student. Mia survives with the help of her combat-trained best friend, Nate, only to be chased through the dangerous woods by the armed military. Her bio-nanotechnology chooses that moment to glitch, but Mia is determined to solve the mystery. Why on earth did the students turn on one another? Who warned her beforehand? How? If she can survive the night, she might find answers. *** WATTY 2021 SCI-FI WINNER. Featured on: - @action - Thriller [Content warning: This story contains themes of bullying and violence.]

Prototype Dorian by AziaElga

Eighteen-year-old cadet Lara Lorensky has one goal: to win the Selection, the only way people on Earth can ascend to NovaTopia, a utopia-like space shuttle orbiting the planet. Unfortunately, her longtime rival, Morgan Sánchez, also has the same goal--and their almost undefeated record in practices is Lara's biggest obstacle to victory. When an unexpected terrorist attack destroys Morgan's cyber arm, Lara's chances to win are significantly increased. But... what is the point of winning if her rival is not in their top condition? Plagued by guilt and a feeling she does not quite understand yet, Lara decides to help Morgan find their cyberlimb mechanic. As she ventures outside her sheltered bubble, Lara realizes that everything she was taught was a lie, including her identity. Perhaps the utopia she was fighting for all her life was also an illusion. Together, Lara and Morgan have a new goal: to find out the truth of Lara's identity--and the truth behind NovaTopia. {Part I COMPLETED!

Spectrum by WelchJJ

Everyone knows evil exists, but most people die before they witness it in its purest form. His home is a place of simplicity, order, a city without troubles. So, why does it have so many enemies? Nicolas was one of many who bore witness to a terrifying scene; the threat of their greatest enemy is materializing before their own eyes. Who could've guessed his life was about to get more complicated? When his government forces him into a dangerous mission, Nicolas has to taste the darkness to warn them of the poison that has already seeped behind their walls. With all the courage he can find, Nicolas slinks into the heart of his enemy, his lips weighed down by lies. The threat level grows, the clock slowly runs out, and his humanity slips through his fingers like the sand on which he rages a war no one can see, and no one can know. If his enemies find out his secret, he dies. If he doesn't pay close attention, he dies. If he doesn't succeed, everyone he loves dies. But, if it helps him save his family, perhaps evil in its purest form...isn't such a bad thing.
