Following a Wanderer, Jean, of a once modern land ravaged by hate, the reader will embark into a serious tale of ends and beginnings. Enclosed is slices and scenes from a time of hardship and much suffering. Though death lends to life and vice-verse. What was old was once new and what was new must be old. Here is a story of that frightful and sublime transition, with regards to humanity. Can the dusts of time bring peaceful&fruitful progress?, or will shrouds of evil hate prevail? 

I have here a Fictional Short Story of around 2k+ words. The genre is a unique blend of Speculative Fiction, and dystopia. Tied within this a wholesome synthesis of anthropology and science fiction notes. An older played genre, but nonetheless these types of stories always give a grave, what if to society. How did the state of affairs come to be?, and how are things to be dealt with? What I found most fascinating with this endeavor was the melding and integration that flows out of so little of space on the page. The story is minimal, playing on cliches within the genre, but the perspective packs an exhilarating punch..

My Bleeding Heart by w1n3ry_

Hello. This is a story much like "The Hunger Games". You'll know what I mean once you read. Anyway, this story will have various *Trigger Warnings* so *proceed with caution*. I know the cover looks a little odd but I do fully intend to change it. Just not as of now. This is very much a story you will have to read to know what it's about in detail. Keep in mind I haven't written a story or book in more than 2 years. So this is definitely a little sloppy, but I hope it's at least up to pare. I'm not exactly expecting this to get much attention, I actually don't know if I want it to get any at all. But, here we are. I hope y'all enjoy if you do decide to read. :) ‼️NOTICE‼️ This book will involve many sensitive topics and content. Proceed with caution. Things it will include, but are not limited to: SH, Slurs, Death, Murder, Abuse, Racism, Ableism, Gaslighting, Delusions, Hallucinations, Medication, Abuse Of Power, NSFW/Smut Etc.

Written in Blood by PebblesPebblesPebs

I did the one thing I promised her I would never do, no matter what, and now she hates me. She absolutely despises me and she's doing everything in her power to make my life a living hell, even if she hurts herself in the process. Even if it gets her killed. Not that my life wasn't a living hell before she started on her quest. It was. It has been ever since she left me and took my heart with her. Ever since she's turned into one of us. As per always, I will be putting trigger warnings below, and I will add to the list as new potential triggers become relevant to the story. Always feel free to let me know if I have missed any. TW: Strong language, blood and gore, murder, themes of suicide, sexual content, violence, very unhealthy copings mechanisms (e.g., alcohol and drug abuse), panic attacks.

Desert Wake ✔ by amberkbryant

***The Corner Booth Contest Runner-Up*** WARNING: contains one blue-eyed stranger, one fast-talking heroine, and a couple of scenes steamier than a mirage at noon. Throw in gigantic dust storms, lawmen out for blood, plus a wasteland to be traversed and you are in for an adventure sultrier than the desert sun! You would think May was living in paradise. After all, a gorgeous man just showed up on her porch willing to do anything she asks of him. But this is no paradise. May lives in a world settled by technology-rejecting idealists wishing to live in harmony with the land. That land, however, has not been very cooperative. The desert in the heart of the planet is spreading outward at an alarming pace, swallowing anything that gets in its way. And May? She's in its way, all right! Alone on her parents' dying farm, May has two goats, a shotgun, and a whole lot of dust. That's about all she has, until the day Ro shows up. Ro brings with him a secret most of their world isn't ready to face. The lawmen on his tail will do whatever it takes, including murder, to keep that secret buried in the desert sand. If they don't succeed in killing May and Ro, no matter: the desert might just do the job for them.

Post Plague Kidnapping - Published! by vblawnola

It's been five years since the plague struck. Leah knows there are other survivors, but she's avoiding them. She is doing just fine on her own. Surviving after everyone she knew died has made her physically strong and honed her intelligence, but she is emotionally devastated. There is nothing to fear if you don't make yourself emotionally vulnerable. James has spent the last five years helping to build up a colony of survivors. He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in. Her time of solitude is up. Leah sparks something in James he's never felt before. He's not letting this one get away, certainly not twice. Warning: Contains sex, some violence, occasional foul language, and adult issues.

L.O.V.E. by denissebloom04

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)
