After World War III, the war between almost every country, Earth came to a screeching halt. New cities and governments were formed but in exactly 100 years time, they fell. Eventually, humanity gave up. Only a small few still believe that mankind has a chance and even they are small in numbers and practically known by none. Just a fairy tale even to them. So they travel to the planes, beautiful and seemingly limitless realms, the core of it only to be breached by a certain few called The Others. They try to reach and communicate with the spirits that reside there with no luck. Until they meet 20 year-old Sam Archer, the last Other needed to talk to the spirits and bring the world back to it's senses.

32 parts Complete
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.
First to Rise (Excerpt) by Bioshockgrl
7 parts Complete Mature
The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through inkitt or galatea!!!) (some read events may apply) (check update chapter for more details!) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!) (NOTE: THIS IS ITS OWN STORY NOT A CONTINUATION. SAME CHARACTERS BUT DIFFERENT PLOT.)(Last to fall au/spin-off)
Ultraya: Origins by UltrayaSystem
41 parts Complete Mature
It is 3988 AD. In a distant solar system known as Ultraya, there is a peaceful society where cybernetic beings known as 'Wyperians' reside. One of the reasons why peace has been upheld for centuries is the existence of Angels. Anyone at all can become an Angel, all they have to do is be a genuine, kind, and loving person. Angels earn the ability to fly on their own pair of majestic feathered wings, and gain magical powers that develop from how they earned said powers. Were you a fireman that put in countless hours rescuing fellow creatures from the dangers of flames? You may become an Angel of Water, with the ability to generate the aquatic element from your bare hands. However, one day something changed, shattering this innocent society. The requirements for obtaining the coveted Angel-Rank became corrupted. In the unprecedented event now known as 'The Ruling Change', Angel powers now were earned through destruction, killing, and negative acts. Are you a terrorist that used explosives to blow up city buildings in order to kill as many civilians as possible with little effort? Unlock the abilities of an Angel of Fire and devastate the land in a field of flames! But what if two Angels cross paths? The heroic fireman, the Angel of Water, vs the evil terrorist, the Angel of Fire? Will the fireman extinguish the terrorist's flames in the name of justice or does he just want the kill to further develop his own Angelic powers? War broke out but one day, a corrupt Angel had an idea. The ability to become an Angel was exclusive to the residents of Ultraya but what about other solar systems? What about Sol, the home to a weak race known as Humans? As Humanity was getting ready to celebrate its journey into the forty-first century, they were invaded by Wyperians; the good Angels followed surely after and the war continued, this time with Humans caught in the middle.
Akropolis by hcedwards
9 parts Complete Mature
"Any thought you ever had; memories, desires, your fears and your dreams, are all recorded and stored safely in the Quantum Cloud for your eventual revival. Death is now merely a transitional period to the next stage of your existence. As a QUBIT (quantum processing biosynthetic), you will experience a life free of disease and suffering. Time is no longer your enemy. Regret is a thing of the past. Each new day brings the promise of endless possibilities, spent in the pursuit of your own happiness, guiltless with the knowledge that there are no longer earthly constraints to inhibit you. This is the life you have always wanted. Welcome to your new beginning..." Akropolis is a city at the end of times, a sanctuary where the brightest and best have been housed since the last Great War. A genome defect has afflicted the majority of the population and scientists are desperate to find a cure. In the meantime, man has found his own salvation in the form of the QUBIT (quantum processing bio-synthetic), an android that is capable of prolonging life almost indefinitely, and yet what makes them human in the first place has been lost in the transition. The ruling council believes that salvation is nigh, but whether that hope arrives in time is questionable. The city's future depends upon the actions of a few individuals, all of whom are struggling with their own mortality. Quentin is the boy who dreams of death. Mia is the tortured soul. Trey is the soldier that defines duty. Misao is the future of the ruling council. Claire is the girl with a secret that will rock the foundations of their entire civilization. Unbeknownst to them, the entire fate of Akropolis lies in their hands. Either humanity will find a way to survive or it will sink slowly into the sea of extinction.
