A wormhole had appeared near our solar system. From it came a signal - strong, deliberate, and unnerving. It was unlike anything humanity had encountered. Governments around the world watched in alarm. Scientists from every continent raced to decode the message, working day and night. Satellites scanned the sky. Observatories analysed every particle. Entire nations held their breath. Weeks passed in tense anticipation. Finally, the signal was broken. And what it said chilled every soul who read it: "Attack. Attack. Attack..." Panic spread like wildfire across every continent. Governments around the world tightened their armies. Citizens lived in constant fear. In the United States, the government refused to sit idle. They form an alliance with Ryze Corporation to develop a solution - a weapon unlike any before. A biotechnological weapon capable of granting humans chance to against something that they barely understood. The project was classified, secret, and urgent. Scientists worked around the clock. Failures were common, and risks were deadly. Yet, hope persisted. And thus, in the shadow of panic and fear, the TerraSync Project was born - humanity's first true line of defence against a universe that had just declared war.

Reality Check (G/t) by ResplendentxReign

(From 2014) There's a little bit of life in everything. We put our lives in everything, especially online. What if it was just as alive as we are? What if it lashed back at you?

I see you're awake finally. Let me explain, I'm the overseer, and my name is Hayley, I will guide you on your journey through this time era. Your name is Lexi, you needn't know you second name as it is useless now. That girl you are staring at is you, and you don't know anything because I made sure of that." The voice of which belongs to the person known as Hayley, booms through the room with a posh accent but audibly angry... Why was she angry with me? "As of now people are dying evidently people become depressed and aggressive to one and other. They all used to live in harmony and happiness, that was until the 'things started to raise. The 'things' are as you would call it zombies but of greater skill. They disguise themselves as humans yet they will not hesitate to kill you and eat you. If someone is a 'thing', automatically presume them dead, or at least soon to be dead. It will always take about 2 weeks to become fully changed, hopefully you can chop of that body part in time for the infection to stop. If you can't, put an end to your soon to be painful and horrible turn/death. These beings as I announced only a moment ago, look exactly like a human, two way to tell if they are one or not, their attitude and their eyes. They don't have emotions, only hunger and let me tell you, they will go out of their way to eat you, they will speak but it will sound different... Deformed almost. The eyes are usually the first to become infected, they become slightly red at first, as time progresses so does the intensity of the color red in the eye. The color in their eyes they once possessed, will seem dull, it will seem as if they are unfocused or unfamiliar with their surroundings. That is all I can tell you for the moment Lexi, but know their are people waiting for your arrival, and we are waiting for you to end this suffering race." I could tell something was off putting about her voice, as if she was lying straight through her teeth

The Core: The First Guest by Perditaveritas

❖2021 Watty Awards Shortlist❖ Kevin was just a normal 10 year old kid until he saw a woman vanish right before his eyes. This made Kevin just a little bit different. He paid more attention to people now. Little did he know that this little difference would kill him the next time he encountered another alien about to return home. It would tear him apart, cell by cell, until he was unmade. His mind being transported away. --- So distantly far away there is a race that advanced to the point where they built dyson spheres to house their civilizations. In their continual expansion, they seeded galaxies with pods and connection satellites. Over time they upgraded their dyson spheres into matryoshka brain Cores. Imagine a computer powered by a star. Citizens of Cores no longer age once they upload their minds into the virtual living system of the Core. While they didn't age, most still choose to cycle through life and death though at a different scale of time compared to our lives. Citizens can visit other planets and live there as if they were on a "vacation". Mercury is Earth's hub connected to the closest Core and Earth is a remote vacation spot for wealthy citizens. When the main character was 10 he witnessed a citizen returning to the Core. The story continues 10 odd years later when he again witnesses a similar situation unfolding and manages to touch the person returning to the Core. This causes him to be swept up in the transfer as well and for his mind to join as a "Guest" user of the Core. As a Guest he has limited powers, a starting balance of zero cr or Citizen credits, and no idea how he can get home. He is the first human to ever become a Guest of a Core. Where money itself is the highest form of their science.

Each of us took this prompt: In a futuristic setting, technology is really advanced, but it slowly starts to turn against humanity, And made it our own--twisting it to create unique, individual stories that are no two alike. We hope you enjoy our work :) Sincerely, The Seven Scribes

A reflection of our souls, the story does not end with death, but we are recreated from the bones of our soul, new, yet the same.
