When Sarah Morgan's husband, Ethan, returns from a mission to explore a massive anomaly known as "The Distortion Zone," he's the only survivor from a team of scientists who ventured inside. His body is marked by strange mutations, and he can't remember what happened within the Zone. As they attempt to seek medical help, government agents stop them, citing secrecy and national security concerns. The leader of the scientific expedition, Dr. Simon Thorne, recruits Sarah to find out what happened to the team inside the Zone. Despite the danger, Sarah agrees to go in, desperate for answers and to save her husband from the horrifying effects of the anomaly.
Inside the Zone, time and reality break down, warped by a powerful, ever-growing bubble of energy. Sarah must navigate a deadly landscape full of mutated animals, lost memories, and shifting realities. As she encounters horrifying creatures like the Bone-Maw Hound, Gnarled Grizzly, and Rift-Prowlers, she begins to uncover dark secrets about the anomaly-and its connection to her past. The more Sarah learns, the more she realizes the truth might be worse than she could have imagined.
As Sarah ventures deeper into the heart of the Zone, she begins to feel its influence on her mind, questioning what is real and what is merely a product of the distortion. Every step she takes unravels a terrifying discovery about Ethan's past involvement in the experiments that created the anomaly. But the true danger is far greater than the mutated creatures stalking her-there is something inside the Zone that has been waiting for someone to find it.

The Betrayer and the Betrayed
In the not-so-distant future evolved humans emerged. Those who had powers that broke conventional laws of physics, chemistry, and biology were dubbed E.H.s (evolved humans); it was wondrous for a time. Of course if there was power to be used there would be those who misuse. To that end the evolved humans police department was formed to deal with all crime committed by or connected to E.H.s, a force entirely comprised of E.H.s trained to stop and capture any E.H. breaking the law. Adlet Blacksteel is the newest edition to the E.H.P.D., his skills and experience as a hostage extractor makes him an invaluable edition. Joined by his new partner, Jenna Jones, he pursues a secretive manhunt for the Soldiers Of The New World, an underground E.H. crime organization that has a hand in all that is illegal, and their mysterious leader: String, who, seemingly, has eyes and ears everywhere. While Adlet and Jenna intend on doing this by the books, their unsavory past with two of String's captains may muddy their judgement, or, more accurately, it already has. As String's ambitions grow beyond just controlling the city's underbelly Adlet and Jenna are forced to take action with an ally he did not desire. While prejudice against E.H.s reaches it's peak because of a horrific tragedy, the Soldiers of the New World waste no time to expand their reach and rally for their cause of taking over the city. Adlet goes to the edge of sacrificing everything and back again. On the way, betrayal awaits at every corner. Note: If you're an artist interested in working with me my email is: yousefabdelhaleem2@yahoo.com I'm willing to pay for a proper cover. I'm also interested in creating a comic out of this work or my next work but that would be a partnership model since I don't have that kind of money.Completa
Zenith: Hero's Journey
"Do you know what every hero has in common? They bleed, they suffer, they save the world-only to be broken, forgotten, left to rot. Not a single one gets peace. Not a single one gets a happy ending. But me? I will end this cycle. I will give the world a better story-one where the heroes win, and finally get the ending they deserve." In the fractured world of Zenith, where divine relics pulse beneath the earth and rifts spill nightmares into the sky, fate forges an unlikely alliance to defy annihilation. Valen, a rare Pantheon from Corinthia, is gifted with the Hero's Journey-the power to relive and wield the strength of long-dead heroes. At his side stands Ashley, a Flameborn forged in discipline and duty, a steadfast protector whose fiery will shields her allies. With them is Riley, a charismatic Verdant whose humor and warmth mask a deep empathy. But their fragile balance is threatened by Nyx, an enigmatic Azrael bound by an unsettling connection to the very rifts they fight to destroy. Together, they must uncover the truth behind the rifts and the power hidden within their souls. Yet in a world where memory is power and prophecy a weapon, every step forward draws them closer to becoming another tragedy in the endless cycle of forgotten heroes.

Morose ✔️
When you experience the worst thing you could ever imagine, how do you react? - "The water looked so tempting under me as I stood there in the dark. The splashing sounds as the waves hit the stone calmed me down and I took a deep breath. Yes. This was it. I closed my eyes and took one step closer, feeling the curb under the soles of my shoes when I stopped again. Then my heart started pounding when I heard the sound of an angry engine behind me, a screech and a crash. I turned around, gasping, ready to pick my phone up from the ground to call for help- but what met me was a pair of soul-searching golden eyes. In all his twisted glory, he stood in front of me, his precious motorcycle's engine still going as it laid on the ground behind him. His hand reached out, as if asking me to wait, but neither of us said anything. We just stood there." - Olivia was a happy, cheerful girl whose life turned upside down one evening, over a phone call. Her mind turned dark, her thoughts became intrusive, and she became... morose. One night everything seemed to fall apart and she found herself at the river banks when an old friend found her and refused to let her go. That night kickstarted something in her that made her want to change... for him. Helix was a misunderstood man surrounded by dark rumors. People feared him. Everyone stayed away from him.. Except Olivia. Olivia's life is in danger; can she fight her way out of the black hole before it's too late? ⚠️ Mature audiences only TW: includes adult themes such as suicide, sexuality, alcohol and other mental health-related issues - viewer discretion is advisedCompleta
Abhuman: Revelation (The Covenant - Book 1)
If you enjoyed the story, please consider leaving an Amazon review. goo.gl/TwvHn9 ------------------------------------------------------------------ In the Covenant, an insidious theocracy, genetic mutation carries a death sentence. Conform or die. It seems to be a perfect, harmonious society-but is it? When sixteen-year-old Cheska Bellamy's mutation is exposed, she's forced to flee her starship to the partly-terraformed planet below. As she makes her way across a devastated landscape, she discovers that there had been a race of sentient creatures with a flourishing civilization. All that remain are battered ruins and a handful of Indigens who'd moved underground after Cheska's people began terraforming their planet. When she connects with the human resistance on the planet, she learns that her people on the starship have been secretly enslaved by an alien race; the most terrifying part (for her) is that she might be the key to her people's freedom. What if she doesn't want to be that key? Doesn't she get to decide her own future? Her people talk of self-determination, but Cheska learns one thing for sure: free will may be an illusion, but evil is very real.Completa
The X Society
What if one day it turned out that your whole life was a lie? Adam had always felt that there was something different about him, yet he lived like a normal teenager-until one day, his entire world was turned upside down. He discovered that he is the son of the ruler of the mythical planet Nibiru, and that his best friend was actually a bodyguard sent by his father. After learning the truth, Adam must not only come to terms with his real identity and take charge of a secret organization called the X Association, but also navigate a web of intrigue and personal conflicts that force him to make choices which could determine the fate of Earth itself. **The X Society** is the first volume in the main series *The Chronicles of Planet Nibiru*-a young adult saga blending elements of sci-fi and fantasy. The series draws inspiration from mythologies around the world, particularly Sumerian mythology, which tells of the planet Nibiru and the beings known as the Anunnaki.Completa
Tism. Just a Hypothesis. You Are the Thesis.
In a reality governed by multi-dimensional layers, a neurodivergent mind undergoes catastrophic reorganization-rewriting the very architecture of perception. Humans don't evolve through mutation, but through compression. Brains fold, optimize, and fracture under pressure. Some minds break reality. Others get broken by it. Tism follows a young woman fragmenting across three dimensions during a series of "epic leaks"-dimensional ruptures where she becomes both victim and operator in humanity's hidden networks. Minds are trafficked. Brains are harvested. Consciousness is reprogrammed. As she spirals through reality fractures triggered by unknown chemicals, the boundary between madness and evolution collapses. Books become portals. AI becomes a mirror. And when she meets the Crow Intelligence, the next stage of human evolution begins-not in biology, but in consciousness itself. A cyberpunk descent into neural chaos and post-human awakening. Book I of a high-concept trilogy about neurodivergence, perception, and control. This is not a memoir or personal account. All events and characters are fictional, and any resemblance to real life is purely coincidental. Also published on Royal Road and Wattpad under the TrinityCode.

The Captured (free version)
It begins near the end, with a man intent on destruction, who feels most of his humanity has gone. As with so many others. Set in a future where almost all sentient life on earth no longer exists. Yet something remains. People continue to live as if nothing has changed, unaware that they are no more than copied memories running in an artificial substrate. In writing The Captured I've tried going some way to explore what defines sentience. And considered the following: Would a machine entity recognize the distinction between itself and biological life - if it could replicate thought and action? And if it could recreate the exact function of a living being what difference does it make whether as flesh or machine? But also this is a human story, though sometimes viewed from an alien perspective... Blurb: [Life is going well for Torbin. A successful career, a happy marriage. Then something strange happens ... and again. So he begins to wonder: has it all been a lie? There is someone who claims to have the answers, a man returned from the past - from the dead. Only it seems someone else wants the truth to remain hidden. An alien visits Earth to study its people. Disguised as a human, her involvement goes far beyond mere observation. She becomes embroiled in a struggle to save what remains of humanity. But already a machine intelligence has transformed Earth into an unrecognisable world, and continues to spread ceaselessly across the galaxy. Yet there is one way to stop them, a weapon held by an old enemy that could itself wipe out all sentient life. There are those who believe they can survive the ultimate destruction. But at what cost?]Completa
Fortuna Verto
Third Book of the Body - Celesi Veil Trilogy A girl's luck changes when her world changes upon itself, sending her back and forth between a world she knows and another that shouldn't even exist. Working with her parallel self from that other world, the two must adjust to their alternate form when visiting the other's world, as they search for a way to escape the chains of misfortune they are bound to. **{While this story is the conclusion of the trilogy, it is also fully capable of standing alone in its own light, taking place on a completely new world far from Celese that returning readers will be otherwise incapable of recognizing. However, it is highly recommended to leave the final "Trilogy Chapter" until the entirety of the trilogy is completed.}** _____________________ Arcs (Much like the first book): * Arc - / Chapter 0: Teaser * Arc 1 / Chapter 1-10: Breaking the borders of existence * Arc 2 / Chapter 11-20: Lost between uncertainties * Arc 3 / Chapter 21-30: Learning secrets from the void * Arc 4 / Chapter 31-40: A coordinated approach to chaos * Arc 5 / Chapter 41-50: Unmaking undesirable futures * Arc 6 / Chapter 51-60: Exploring the expanse of the self * Arc 7 / Chapter 61-70: Beyond the scale of worlds * Arc 8 / Chapter 71-80: Collision of historical futures * Arc ∞ / Chapter ∞: Endlessly beyond eternity (Trilogy Chapter)Completa
