Virtual Reality is Out of Control...'Let me remember the dream again for a moment. Let me hold it in my mind. For with everything it has become - a shadowy reflection, a hollow advertisement - it is getting easier and easier to forget. And lately, many of its shadows have been haunting me. The shadows of paths never taken in the woods. I do not know the precise point that the dream of the Spiral began to diverge from what it once was...'

...Welcome to a free, short Virtual Web sci-fi story that explores ideas about a futuristic, immersive Gameworld influencing all levels of society...with emergent defects...

NOTE: This is a fairly challenging, 'background' story with an emphasis on ideas. It will relate to some more accessible stories to follow... including, hopefully, a novel. If you're interested in writing about 'The Spiral' then search 'Fountellion' for the Medium publication.

Fans of TRON, 'Nineteen Eighty-Four' by George Orwell, and 'Brave New World' by Aldous Huxley, may appreciate similar themes.

Please comment with your impressions or feedback on the themes and content of the story...

Best wishes, and 'Progression'!

The 10th Circle - Abyss [Complete] de taivaan_sininen

Every prototype technology has its risks. After an accident involving a novel robotic suit, Keres cadet Sky begins to have recurring lucid nightmares where she finds herself in a prison called Tartaros. Soon, one thing becomes clear: Tartaros is more than just a dream, and as the lines between reality and her subconscious begin to blur, Sky is forced to question her own perception of the world. Meanwhile, more and more mysterious accidents shake the city of Pharos to the core, threatening the safety and security of the last surviving humans on earth. Through her own accident, Sky finds herself drawn into the investigation of an enigmatic task force. The prototype technology, her dreams, a dubious doctor, a missing part of her medical files and a dark secret from her past all seem to be connected, but how? Form here on out, there's only one direction left to go: Down. _______________ Featured on Wattpad's UndiscoveredBooks profile on their "Need to Read" reading list Highest Rankings: #1 in Philosophy [17.01.2019] #8 in Mind [17.01.2019] #8 in Science [13.03.2019] #10 in Psychology [28.02.2019] #24 in Science-Fantasy [17.01.2019] #39 in Dreams [17.01.2019] The 10th Circle centers around questions about the human mind: what is it, what happens with it when we sleep and dream, what happens with it when we die, and what does it mean to be human and to have a mind in the first place.

My Alpha? (SAMPLE) de ElleJSmith

"Why are you following me?" She eyes me suspiciously, like she doesn't trust someone wanting to say hello. "I want to know your name. Mate." There, I said it, maybe that'll ease her mind. "What? No, not possible." What. The. Hell. ********************************************************* Her father dead, abandoned by her mother and forgotten by her pack, Aurelia just wanted to work her way into a better life.

Fountellion: Mira in the Green Game de Ademc77

In a world saturated by technology and virtual experiences, Mira, a disconnected and emotionally distant teenager, finds herself lost in the digital haze of modern life. She's grown numb to the world around her, her relationships, and even her own sense of self. But when she stumbles upon 'Fountellion', an immersive virtual game designed to reconnect players with nature, she embarks on a journey that will change her life forever. In Fountellion, players explore a vast island with an evolving ecosystem, where every action has consequences. The island is divided into **seven colored regions**, each representing a different aspect of the human spirit. To progress, players must unlock Insights, which are tied to their understanding of nature, survival, and themselves. The game is more than just a quest for survival; it's a journey of self-discovery, spiritual growth, and, unexpectedly for Mira, a path to love. Ready, players green...?

The Loser's Daughter de ValyriaRizing

Desperate for a fresh start following a heartbreaking ordeal, Venus Denbrough, the beautiful daughter of the stuttering "Loser" Bill, has decided to relocate to the sleepy little town of Derry, Maine where her Father lives. Little does she know, an ancient evil has recently awoken and with her in the picture, "it" knows exactly how to hit Bill where it hurts. Note: This is a slow-burn with lots of teasing and "almosts" that slowly build toward full blown intimacy and once it starts, it's very spicy and very often. The point is to be aching with desire before that first sex scene. I want my reader as desperate for it as the main character because I believe that "first time" feeling is damn near magical and I love dragging that shit out. If you want quick smut, this isn't for you. I'm sorry! 🥰 Trigger Warning: There will be content involving violence, extreme gore, rape, sex scenes, female x male, male x male intimacy, and other mature situations. If you think any of these things will bother you, I'd suggest you maybe try another story. 02/37/23 - No.1 - #stephenking (HELL FUCKING YES!) 03/01/22 - No. 1 - #clown (sweet!) 02/07/22 - No. 3 - #Pennywise (WOO!) 10/24/21 - No. 1 - #stephenking (I'm crying!!!) 10/18/21 - No. 3 - #Pennywise (wow!!!) 10/02/21 - No. 5 - #Pennywise 09/30/21 - No. 8 - #Pennywise 09/13/21 - No. 2 - #billskarsgard (Yay!) 09/12/21 - No. 11 - #Pennywise 09/11/21 - No. 12 - #Pennywise 9/01/21 - No. 14 - #Pennywise

Counterfeit de Hakuna

WINNER OF THE @WATTPADSERIES 'SERIES-OSLY GOOD READ' COMPETITION!!! - NO HUMAN CONTACT. EVER. In order to survive , this was the rule Pip had to follow. Why? Because human contact was a death sentence. Completely fatal. So why did the distant, impassive new guard tell her to break it? And more importantly... Why did she do it? - COMPLETED. Dystopian trilogy. Story began on June 10th, 2017. Story finished on June 5th 2018. Highest ranking : #67 in Science-Fiction - Reviews - ❝Maze Runner vibes. I love this. ❞ - @HonestlyJess ❝THIS IS OFFICIALLY MY NEW FAVOURITE BOOK. ❞ - @-BellsBlake ❝This is a really good story that makes you want to read more and more. I don't think I could have come up with an idea like this, characters like this, names like this.❞ - @Zero_Days - FEATURING A DIVERSE CASTING - In loving memory of Zamora, who inspired me beyond comprehension. Your short life was a story of faith and a testimony to the power of love, and I hope I can be as brave as you one day. You taught me what death feels like, but you taught me how to live in spite of it. This is for you.

THE HUNTED ONE (A Story of Telekinesis) [ Completed ] de WPutman68

Have you ever had anything strange happen to you that you couldn't explain? One moment you're normal, the next... Well, it happened to me. On my sixteenth birthday, my life changed forever. I learned that day I was different. I have a gift... And I've been hunted by men intending to capture or kill me just because of what I can do. I'm Telekinetic, a mover they call me. I can move objects with just my thoughts. I can do things that most other people only dream about. Except sometimes a dream can start out exciting, and quickly become a nightmare. My name is Kyle... and this is my story. "The Hunted One " is part one of the series. Part two is called "Caitlin's Way". And part three, " Destiny " is also completed. I've also finished writing "The Presence." It's a ghost story with my kind of twist and takes place at the same time as my first two stories and If you're a Hunted One reader, you may find the ending interesting... I also have a story called "Return of the Black Eyed Children " It's based on the legend. (Look it up on Google) My latest is called "Vengeful Spirits." I'm sure the tittle describes what it's about... Please consider all my stories as a first draft. I'll be editing/polishing as time allows. Highest ranking for "The Hunted One" #45 in Paranormal on 09/29/17 And as always silent readers are always welcome. Votes and Comments are always much appreciated! Follow @WPutman68 to keep up on my latest posts. Thanks to everyone for their support and taking some time out of your busy day to spend it in my world... Favorite Quote: "You are the person you are supposed to be, nothing more, nothing less." Thanks again... Wayne...
