When the United States Government became aware of the hatred directed towards their country, they knew a war was coming. A war they wouldn't be able to keep across seas. The rumor had been spreading across the country for decades; a massive construction project meant to protect selected cities and the people that could fit inside. The government knew it wasn't a rumor, and development began when they took the best engineers and set them with one of the heaviest tasks; save the United States. The Iron Dome Program began, with its limitations. But it was after the war, that the government realized nuclear bombs weren't their biggest threat. It was the people they left behind.

The Last Line
The world has changed. Entire nations have collapsed, and the few who remain struggle to survive in the shadows of what once was. Communication is lost, allies are scattered, and something far worse than war now stalks the Earth. For Anthony Maxwell, Nova Parker, and Leo Alexander-once elite operators in the world's strongest military forces-everything they once knew is gone. Now part of Task Force 12, a unit forged from the remnants of the past, their mission is simple: survive, resist, and fight back against an enemy no one fully understands. But when a recon mission leads them to a forgotten military bunker, they uncover something that shatters everything they believed. The creatures aren't weapons. They weren't created. They were summoned. And the ones who brought them here? They have a plan. With time running out and humanity on the brink, Task Force 12 must strike at the heart of the enemy before the world falls completely into darkness. But in a war where the rules no longer apply, victory is not guaranteed. Some battles can't be won. Some horrors can't be stopped. And some doors should have never been opened.

Behind every mean girl...there's a tragedy
The average human being spends every second of his day fighting against the force of nature to see another day. But I'm different. I'm not afraid of outside forces to take my life away - only myself.

As a way to release my frustration, I give hell to my body and everyone I come in contact with - especially my parents. No one knows about what happened except the ones who did it...and Him. But he didn't stay. Now, he's back and he's not talking either. I want to stop hurting, I need to stop. Make me stop.Complete
Static
{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16Complete
Underneath the clouds
[This is my very first book, so it may be a little crappy.] (Being HEAVILY edited) In 2162, the US government has built sites all over the country, hiding them from the public eye in hopes to preserve their opinion and faith. Despite their believable facade, Jolin Martin has a hunch on their dishonesty and rather stringent behavior. In her generation, America is at war with the east, focusing most of their energy in the war, sending back livestreams of the war and chaos. The imagery has been sealed into her generation's mind; some move on and live in fear; others- like her- watch a scene of spectacular storytelling, with their origins being their own imagination, unfold in front of them. Like many others, Jolin's mind is filled with charging into battle, guns blazing, and coming out on top with strategic maneuvers. The time for foolishly imagining herself bigger is over. She's just turned fifteen, and facing the real world and all its stained glory is what she must learn to do instead. Still, she daydreams, bringing the concept of war and her naive view back to the forefront of her mind. In her blissful ignorance, obstacles pop up, threatening to damage her forever.Complete
