When two rebellious teens, Alex and Riley, stumble across a strange iridescent drug labeled "Eclipse" at an underground party, they think they're just chasing the next high. But one dose hurls them into an alternate version of Earth-one cloaked in shadows and ruled by cold-blooded reptilian overlords. In this hidden dimension, humans live unaware that their world is a puppet show, controlled from the shadows by an ancient species of shapeshifting reptilians.
As Alex and Riley navigate this sinister mirror world-where cities shimmer with alien tech, and reptilian enforcers stalk them at every turn-they uncover a horrifying truth: the drug wasn't an accident. It was a test. And now they're marked as threats to the overlords' dominion over both worlds.
Hunted, outnumbered, and unsure who to trust, the teens must unravel the secret behind "Eclipse," expose the truth to humanity, and ignite a rebellion-before they're silenced forever.
Think: Stranger Things meets The Matrix, with a dystopian conspiracy twist.

Ashes of the Living
**The year is 2036.** After a bioengineered parasitic fungus - *Cordy-13* - mutated and spread beyond control, the United States collapsed. Within three months, 80% of the population was dead or "reanimated." Power grids fell, cities emptied, and survivors now live in scattered settlements or wander the ruins. **Evelyn "Eve" Carter (29)** Former EMT from Denver, 5'7", athletic, green-eyed, scar on her left cheek. Compassionate but hardened, Eve carries deep survivor's guilt. When the outbreak hit Denver General, she fought to save patients until the hospital fell. Her younger brother, Miles (16), vanished that night. Haunted yet driven, Eve searches the Midwest believing he's still alive - a mission that keeps her from collapsing under the weight of her past. **Logan Brooks (35)** Ex-Army Staff Sergeant, 75th Ranger Regiment. 6'1", broad-shouldered, dark hair, beard, and old military tattoos. Stoic and tactical, Logan hides a broken heart - his daughter, Abigail (9), was lost when Atlanta burned. After refusing to follow orders to bomb infected zones, he deserted, vowing never to serve blind authority again. Now, he fights to protect those beside him, seeking redemption one battle at a time. **Marcus "Red" Hensley (23)** A wiry mechanic and survivalist from Tulsa with messy red hair, freckles, and a worn leather jacket. Before the fall, he ran a YouTube channel on survival hacks; after the collapse, he scavenged junkyards and lived off the land. Beneath his cocky humor lies loneliness and fear. When he met Eve in a crumbling Kansas City safe zone, they formed an uneasy alliance. Red wants to prove he's more than lucky - that he can make a difference in a dying world. Together, Eve, Logan, and Red navigate the ruins of a fallen America - bound by loss, survival, and the fragile hope that something human still endures. This is my first time ever writing anything so sorry if the ending is lacklusture :(Tamamlanmış Hikaye
Shattered Sky
PLEASE NOTE: my writing is a lot better now. In the not-so-distant future, the world has been ravaged by climate disasters, economic collapse, and technological overreach. The Earth's atmosphere is barely breathable in some areas, and society is divided into highly controlled, isolated Zones. These Zones are managed by an all-powerful governing body called The Ascendancy, which uses a combination of surveillance, propaganda, and strict population control to maintain order. Beneath the surface, however, a rebellion is brewing. Youth, especially those born in the years after the Ascendancy's rise to power, have begun questioning the truth about the world they live in, and their place in it. In the midst of this unrest, a group of teenagers discovers an ancient artifact, believed to be a key to unlocking the world's true history and the secrets of the Ascendancy's origins. Genre: Young Adult Dystopian
The Angriest Angel
Chase Madison had a tough childhood. Raised in a broken home and struggling with undiagnosed ADHD, he was constantly in trouble, injured, and outcast. Life didn't get much better as an adult. Jailed, abandoned by family and friends, and fired from his job, Chase walks through life looking for the next bad thing to happen. But then he meets the Caelans. They look like and act like us, but they are not from this planet. They've lived here for years, posing as people of Earth, hiding in plain sight by using a mental ability called 'psy' to influence us-purely for the purpose of maintaining their secret identity. They have always been completely and utterly peaceful. Their planet had conquered and eradicated anger long ago. Something has suddenly changed, however, within the Caelan people here on Earth. After more than 50 years of peace, anger has infected some of them-like a sickness-forcing all 939 to be quarantined here. And when they meet Chase, they discover something even more disturbing-their psy does not work on him. His immunity to their power presents a serious security risk. On the surface, there doesn't seem to be anything special about him-other than having ADHD. Could this unusual condition be responsible for such a serious breach of Caelan security? Join Chase on the adventure of his life as he makes wondrous discoveries, improbable friends, terrifying enemies, finds unexpected love, and begins to believe in himself-for the first time in his life.Tamamlanmış Hikaye

For Izzy's remaining days on Earth, her psychopharmacologist best friend, Nakomi, begs her to complete a bucket list before leaving as a means of honoring their friendship. The first bucket list item: going to one of Portland's psychedelic centers together and taking Vivectica ™, a potent psychedelic drug (synthesized by none other than Nakomi) that has become a popular form psyche-therapy. Izzy reluctantly agrees, and when she encounters a hyper-intelligent reptilian entity on her trip, she can't convince herself that he wasn't real. The days are ticking down until her trip, but Izzy, becoming obsessed with the creature, can't get over her feelings that either 1) she's given herself drug-induced psychosis right before her journey to the red planet, or 2) there's something out there, something beyond space... This novel is a wacky trip with some sprinklings of HORTON HEARS A WHO and ANT-MAN, along with lots of palatable metaphysics. ***This is my entry for the 2022 Open Novella Contest.Tamamlanmış Hikaye

There are others who covet the crown, and they aren't pleased with what we've done to the planet. Pollution and overpopulation have left our world crippled and spiraling towards utter destruction.

Chasing the Ember:Echoes of the Void
--- CHASING THE EMBER: ECHOES OF THE VOID In the end, it wasn't strength that saved them. It was the refusal to break. --- WORLDVIEW SUMMARY The Setting: A Dying Earth and the Last Ark Earth is uninhabitable. Scarred by war, disease, and climate collapse, the planet no longer supports life. The Emberwake Ark is humanity's final escape: a city-sized spacecraft holding 65,000 of Earth's last survivors, adrift in the void. No weapons. No military. Just thinkers, engineers, broken families, scavengers, and those who paid, tricked, or clawed their way aboard. Supplies are critically low. Food, oxygen, water, and mental stability are all degrading. No one's unscarred - some physically, others emotionally - except one man who's held together by a very thin, but unbroken, thread. --- The Universe: Cosmic Terror Meets Myth-Made-Flesh Space is not silent. It is alive with ancient, unknowable forces. Humanity begins to discover that myths weren't stories. They were warnings. Earth's ancient pantheons-Greek, Norse, Aztec, Egyptian, Chinese, Japanese-are distorted reflections of real cosmic beings. Entities that live between stars. These include: Jörmungandr - A space-leviathan that coils around dead stars. Apep's Spawn - Shadow-born creatures that eat dreams and time. Fenrir-class Entities - Beasts that hunt on instinct and collapse reality around them. Watchers - Beings that only observe. Their gaze erases people from memory and time. The Sun-Eater - An endless void that mimics stars and consumes anything seeking warmth. Quetzacryon - A radiant, godlike being that gives paradise... before incinerating all who submit to it. These aren't gods. They are forces. Intelligent, instinctive, and indifferent. Time loops, parallel realities, psychological traps, shifting laws of physics - the universe itself resists comprehension. ---Tamamlanmış Hikaye
