The second rise of the Roman empire has arrived. Emperor's reign again. The gladiator games are no doubt soon to follow. 
The cause: a tyranny driven parasitic virus moving in a slow crawl to overtake the human realm. Transmission: Sadism. The more you enjoy others' pain, the more susceptible you become. What's the prize to the torturous nine rounds of gladiator games? The cure. After all, what is more sadistic than a pipe dream?
The games have only become more meticulous.
It's no longer brute force and strategy alone that will keep you alive.
Calliope is small, weak and so sick her brain is fogged 90% of the time.
There is no way she is going to survive one round, let alone win the cure
But if that truly is the case, why can the supposedly infected emperor not take his eyes off her?

L.O.V.E. by denissebloom04
30 parts Complete
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)

Beneath the Laurel Crown by Laurie_is_the_best
14 parts Ongoing Mature
Antonia never asked to wake up in Ancient Rome with a foreign name on her tongue-or to become the Emperor's healer. One day she's a modern-day pharmacist and now she's trapped in a world where medicine is primitive, politics are deadly, and her knowledge makes her both invaluable and a threat. When the Emperor falls gravely ill, her skills may be the only thing that can save him. But palace walls are thick with secrets, and one misstep could cost her everything. Worse still, the original owner of her body wants it back-and she's growing meaner by the day. Caught between powerful enemies, a vengeful spirit, and an Emperor who seems far too curious about her past, Antonia must survive long enough to find her way home-or risk losing herself in a world that was never hers to begin with. • • • "If the gods wished to speak," he said at last, addressing the entire banquet, "they would not whisper through the hands of a servant. They would speak to me." His voice rang clear, slicing through the lingering unease like a blade. Some nobles nodded. Others shifted uncomfortably. Then, with the ghost of a smirk, the emperor lifted his goblet. "A toast," he declared, raising it high. "To Rome. And to men, not omens, shaping its future." The hall hesitated-but only for a moment. Then, as if shaking off a spell, goblets were lifted, voices murmured their agreement, and the banquet resumed. But I did not move. I could not. Because as the emperor took his first sip of wine, his gaze flickered-just for an instant-toward the door where the Augur had vanished. And though his smirk remained, there was something else in his eyes. Something that told me the omen had not been ignored. Not truly.
