2020 - the very near future. The world economy is still in shambles, and there is one company whose name seems to be found on an alarming number of products and services. Countries all meld together. Cultures are dying. Creativity is dying. Individuality and originality are cause for jailing. Refusal to do as told results in termination.
Laura Cooper is a senior in high school, and in just a short period of time, the world as she knows it, and as we all know it, will come to a grinding halt.

Plucky Thoughtfullness
In the world we live in, thoughts get lost. Not because they want to disappear, but because we're too afraid to think them. Some are naughty, some forbidden, some simply unwanted. We don't want to think them. We can't. We don't have the time to. We're not brave enough. So we push them away, shift them to places where they're harder to find-far beyond what is allowed, desired, or considered good. But sometimes the mind takes a journey to visit them again. It vanishes for a while. But every traveler returns-often carrying even more baggage than they initially took with them. Dive into the hidden corners of the mind, where forbidden thoughts roam, fears linger, and unexpected freedom awaits. And dare to feel your thoughts with me. I promise to hold your hand.
Paradox - Lost in Time
In a world on the brink of collapse, a deadly mutation of the Zika virus, labelled H1T1, begins to claim lives with a speed not seen since the Black Death swept through Europe.

Fully aware of the risks, they push the machine beyond its limits and find themselves partially stranded in a dystopian future. In this grim reality, the virus has wiped out three-quarters of the global population, dismantling society as we know it. The remnants of humanity now inhabit fractured cities, controlled by brutal armed factions and authoritarian regimes. Trapped in this hostile world, the group must navigate a landscape of violence and despair while confronting their own futures and counterparts from this timeline.

In their fight to survive and find the cure, they face not only the dangers of this future but also the haunting reality of what they might become.Complete
Eagles and Snakes
In a society engineered to perfection, children are not born from mothers but in test tubes. They grow up in loveless nurseries, competing relentlessly to rise and catch the eye of the nine families who uphold the world's order. Each Father selects its future disciples, and depending on the lineage assigned, bodies are genetically modified to embody their spirit animal, amplifying their abilities until they become flawless cogs in the social machine. But when a structure is built on segregation and fear, balance is destined to collapse. From one of these cold nurseries, an unexpected rebellion emerges-a movement that uncovers an unsettling truth: no species deserves to rule over the others. Ambition, like a virus, infects every animal. And sooner or later, the virus must be eradicated.
