TRIGGER WARNING!!! 
[This story will contain graphic content and descriptions of gore, so major trigger warning for blood and guts]

Mars is your typical alternative kid.  A little reserved, introverted, but he has a heart of gold once you get to know him. He doesn't have much in common with his classmates, however, just like them, he is just trying to get by. Like most kids his age, his is trying his best to balance out his home life, albeit less than ideal, along with his schoolwork and social life. As if he needed more on his plate, he starts having strange dreams. Not strange as in a fever dream, but strange in their realism. His dreams grow more and more intense and realistic, graphic images of absolute chaos and mayhem as far as the eye can see, the sounds of bloodcurdling screams fill his ears. This continues for weeks. Night after night, he awakes in a cold sweat, heart racing, breath quick. Until one day, it starts happening while he's awake. 

This story follows Mars. Our reclusive yet observant main character, as he attempts to make sense of his bizarre visions. He knows that they are no ordinary day dreams, they are no coincidence. They have to mean something. This is his story as he battles his own mind, fighting to hold onto his sanity as everyone around him begins to question it. He is certain that his visions are a warning, a prophecy of some kind. He is determined to understand exactly why he is seeing them, and how to prevent them from manifesting into reality. Little does he know, the fate of the entire world depends on it. The real question is: will he be able to stop it in time?

{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16
Wasteland Conqueror by PowerArmorGuy
63 parts Ongoing Mature
| Description | Dom, a man in his mid-twenties, suddenly gets reincarnated into the harsh post-apocalyptic world of his favorite game series, Wastelander. With his previous life ended and his new one just beginning he needed a new goal to strive for, and so with an ambitious heart, he decided to pursue the monstrous goal of conquering the wasteland in its entirety that has been left scarred by atomic fire for some two centuries. On his journey through this new world, he'll come face to face with all sorts of dangers ranging anywhere from mutants wanting to tear any human they come across to shreds for a quick meal to bandit clans that love to rape, pillage, and sell their victims into slavery. Despite those prevalent threats seeming dangerous enough to deter most from even attempting to set foot outside the confines of whatever safe haven they have, they're not even the worst of what he'll come across in the pursuit of his goals. Dom's quest will have him go toe to toe with the many powers that exist across the wasteland and their armies in his quest to one day conquer it. Will Dom achieve his dreams in this life or will he succumb to the many dangers that exist within the wasteland and beyond? | Other information | Other Tags: Relatively Ruthless MC, Faction Building, War, Aliens, Space Travel, Mutants, Robots, Exploration, Cannibals, Sex, Drugs, Slavery, Galactic Conquest, Cultivation, MC POV Only | Links | Discord Link: https://discord.gg/NP8e6CymdY Patreon Link: https://www.patreon.com/PowerArmorGuy
Glory in War: GAME ON (Part 1) by Hirokatsu800
17 parts Complete Mature
Wars are not something out of the ordinary, are they? We hear about them every day. But for the people that live them, it is more than a punishment from the gods. It is a never-ending agony which the victims have to fight in order to survive. They fight to honour the fallen ones, to protect what they cherish the most, to make their stories heard. They fight for their glory which was lost alongside the people they once knew. They fight for a better future, one without conflicts, one with the freedom they wish to have. But even so, they try to live simple lives in the end, no matter what happens in the meantime. "But can you truly call it living if you cannot sense your freedom, if you cannot wander the streets of your own city without the fear of one day being discovered and killed because of the way you are born? Because of your gift from the gods? Maybe... But it is for us to see what future planned for its people." The first part of the story "Glory in War" focuses on getting to know the world of a corrupted society, in which one race is put to hide in the shadows in order to survive from those that want them dead. We are introduced to a former student of an underground school, N04H, who decides to enter the military forces that protect the convicted race's freedom as a sign of gratitude for their guardians. By doing so, even if the story does not focus on him in particularly, he takes part into making their fate come true, opening the path of a new beginning. As for what there is to come, let's say the gods have already written their story.

The third part of the story "Glory in War" focuses on finding out the reality behind the secrets and lies that we've heard of even from the beginning of this tale. Not before a faded, yet familiar face, leaves a letter to those after Him, the beings have decided to decipher this strange last will in order to find His final message to His successors and maybe get an answer on this unknown world to them. But when the journey for the truth begins, it won't take long before even more questions make their way into the lives of our heroes.

Hey, you! Yeah, you. Listen up, dude, because I don't have much time. Actually, I have a ton of time, I just don't feel like repeating myself. South Park is infested with zombies. Yeah, you heard me right. Shuffling around, undead, want to eat you zombies. I'm stuck as some kind of leader of a tiny crew of kids. I don't know what the hell I'm doing, but everyone else seems to think I do, so I guess we're going with that. In a few days the whole town went from being kinda nuts to completely chaotic. Why do people think I'm a good leader? Why'd all the adults leave? Where's literally half of my grade, they can't all be dead, can they? Why are we not allowed to leave South Park? Do they want us die? How long can we keep on living like this? Most importantly, why couldn't I have just gone with Tweek to the stupid bathroom? Now he's M.I.A. and it's my fault. Anyway, I hope maybe you can find some pleasure in reading this. I mean, I would probably get bored, but whatever floats your boat, dude. Gotta run. Clyde's throwing another fit because someone ate his Hot Pocket (Spoiler Alert, it was me). See ya later, stranger. -Craig **NOTE: the story is not written as journal entries by Craig, I just thought it would be a fun little bit to put as the hook. Apologies if it is misleading.** **ALSO NOTE: the mature content warning is for language, and language only. Well, and I suppose gore and violence, but that depends on what you define as gore and violence**
