What if the world's deadliest spy agency had a team of trainees who were... completely unfit to work together?

Meet the Marionette team-six misfits who seem to have nothing in common except their inability to trust each other. With a dangerous AI manipulating everyone around them, these rookies have no choice but to come together to save the world-or die trying.

Their flaws? A mess.
Their strengths? They are harder to see than their flaws, but they have them.
The stakes? Higher than ever before.

In a world of secrets, betrayals, and mind games, can they find a way to beat the system, or will they become pawns in a game they didn't even know they were playing?

Get ready for a rollercoaster of twists, wild team dynamics, and unexpected bonds. It's not just about saving the world-it's about surviving each other.All Rights Reserved

Lunar Virus ✔️ ni its_really_not

Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258!

Paradox - Lost in Time ni NathanMinto

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. Desperate to stop the outbreak, a group of young scientists successfully constructs a time machine, hoping to venture into the future to retrieve a cure and bring it back to their present. 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. The mistakes of the past resurface: rivalries, betrayals, and the devastating losses that tore them apart-murder, madness, and the inescapable brutality of a world drained of hope. 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.

When Reality is "BROKEN" ni itsAlisaJane

Two sisters. One bond. A world on the brink of chaos. Emily and Serena never imagined their lives would be anything but ordinary-until the outbreak shattered everything. As the undead rise and shadows of the past resurface, the sisters must navigate a twisted game of betrayal, secrets, and danger. With an unlikely team of allies and the constant threat of enemies hiding in plain sight, the sisters hold the key to a fight far greater than they ever expected. But in a world where trust is fragile and every choice has consequences, will their bond be enough to withstand what lies ahead? The truth is closer than they think, but some mysteries are better left buried. This is the very first story of my life... :)

Escaping Elysia ni jessicarvasko

A dystopian young adult novel involving romance, secret experiments on human subjects, and a group of teenagers' will to survive. Reader Comments: "I'm gonna gush about your book real quick...all the technology has a purpose and is beautifully explained so I can picture it in my mind...the whole concept of the book is completely original...*moment of silence for your beautiful arch of character development* everything your characters do is strictly them but they develop enough to show more about themselves without you straight up telling the reader about them" -Vairl9023 "Ahh!!! This is so good!! I will be anxiously awaiting the next Chapter!!" -CrystalBagot "Brilliant...ohh, this is very catchy, good work" -IndeeMaynard "I love this so far" -BrianneMorris "You've done a great job at creating a mysterious mood" -poisonedpen *** All Evita Creedy, 17, wants is to finish her degree and be accepted for a prestigious job with the city's Department of Energy. On the way to take her placement test she sees a man take a gun out of his bag. Panicked, she reaches into her purse for her phone to call 911. Instead she takes out a gun. She doesn't know where it came from or how it got there, but when the man turns his gun on her she shoots him. It would be easy for Evita to forget about where the gun came from and let her life return to normal, but its mysterious appearance won't stop nagging at her. When Evita starts asking questions Evelyn Sheer, the head of the city's Department of Energy, takes her captive and places her in a secret, underground research facility. Evelyn Sheer and the researchers are trying to create a genetic modification that enables humans to photosynthesize. Once in the facility, Evita is tagged as a test subject and loses all say over what happens to her body. She has to escape. By the time she comes up with a plan there is only one problem. Evita isn't ready to leave.

Artificial Tears ni Ardenla

"My chest feels heavy. So heavy I can't breathe. In a panic I open my eyes and look around. Thank god... It was just a nightmare." In the year 2037, Edith, a recent university graduate, starts working at the place of her dreams. She makes new friends and learns more about the world. Both the beautiful and the not so beautiful. In this new world, she gets the feeling of someone following her. Murders that at first seemed to be just nightmares are getting closer and closer to her. Just what is her connection to the killer? And what if they aren't human? This story has horror elements (gore and stalking for example), so viewer discretion is adviced. Artificial Tears is the first book I finished writing:)

Forever Fighting | ✔️ | [previously Espionage: double-cross] ni WinterWillow901

Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing. [previously known as Espionage: double-cross] Thanks for reading :)

The Unexpected ni 1800SlapAHoe

Tyler and Mia have been best friends since elementary school. They've been through a lot together, including giving each other their first kiss and Mia losing her virginity to him. That night changes everything and Mia finds herself struggling to maintain their friendship. She tries to move on but Tyler is always there. He doesn't want to be with her but he doesn't want anyone else to be either. Throughout her struggle, Mia learns more about herself and meets many new people. But will any of that matter if she loses her best friend? "What is wrong with you?" Mia asks in disbelief. Tyler sighs, crossing his arms over his chest. "I don't do relationships. You know that," he replies, shrugging slightly. Mia contemplates what to do. She has two choices: 1.) Walk away and never look back, meaning she'd lose him. Or 2.) Forget anything ever happened and allow him to continue walking all over her, meaning she wouldn't lose him. Either way, she'd be the one getting hurt. "Then I don't 'do' this friendship anymore. Goodbye, Tyler." {The first 5 chapters are published on Wattpad as a preview. The story is 100% complete & published on another platform (more info in my bio).

Down Under ni AmyMarieZ

|WATTYS 2022 WINNER - HORROR| Shawn, a convicted criminal, never thought she'd see the sun again, let alone call another star system her home. When she's offered an out from her prison sentence, she embarks on a dangerous interstellar expedition along with 18 of Earth's most intelligent criminals. Their task is to set up a base on a supposedly habitable planet and prepare it for colonization. Although the planet has liquid water and a breathable atmosphere, it is believed to host only microbial life. However, upon arriving, Shawn and the rest of the colonists learn that assumption was grossly incorrect. In a brutal attack from rampaging wildlife, everyone but Shawn and four other colonists are killed. The five survivors retreat to the cavernous network beneath the ground seeking safety, but they soon come to a terrible discovery. These caves aren't ordinary caves, and they are no safer down under than they were on the surface. [][][] This was originally my entry for the 2021 Open Novella Contest, and it received an honorable mention! It has now been expanded into a full length novel. I used prompt number 53: "When wildlife starts rampaging, all the humans are forced underground. However, they come to a terrible discovery that being underground is no safer than being on the surface."

The Skylar Experiment : The "X" in Apex ni NoppityNope666

---Book of the Month 2018 winner in the sci-fi category from awardofthemonth2018--- ---1st place winner in teen fic Writer's Circle Awards by concinnitycircle--- A/N: This book is action-packed with a sprinkle of mystery all wrapped in a science-fiction teen drama! I know. It's quite a mouthful. Cue the summary! *** Skylar is born with predetermined odds against her. She's been isolated since birth from her true nature and her peers in the name of an experiment. A change of plans cause the people in charge to order her relocation to Oakwood, a microscopic town swarming with mutants like her. They silently follow her journey as Riley is confronted to strange locals, a boy that hates her guts and nightmarish monsters lurking around her house. Throughout the series, she slowly but surely discovers truths about herself she could never fathom... and that there is a daunting trap waiting to snap. One life. One experiment. Endless lies. Some cussing and violence invovled. THIS IS THE FIRST BOOK OF A SERIES AND IT GETS PROGRESSIVELY DARKER 😈 Disclaimer : My story is inspired from Jennifer Armentrout's series Lux (basically, credits to her because this wouldn't exist otherwise). There are many differences but also several similarities. The plot isn't centered the same, either way. I just have fun writing and twisting up my favorite elements.
