We find ourselves in the year 2075. The Atlantis Research facility is a newly funded project by both multiple Governments and private agencies alike, with its founder Dr. Richard Schollman at the head of this newly discovered branch of science - time travel.
Cut back to the year 1975. The project has only truly begun and things haven't gone well. Schollman is found dead, his office in tatters with his hand severed and missing. His ground-breaking theories, unknown to the rest of the world have been stolen - but by whom and why?
Detective Leala Donnovan is dispatched to investigate. Damaged goods; a cynic of the world and its inhabitants, she must find the killer before it is too late - but will her demons stop her from catching a dangerous killer still on the hunt for blood before it is too late?

'Once Upon A Time' is currently on hiatus as I haven't had time or energy to write recently. I'm currently jotting and writing down a couple of ideas for a zombie horror / thriller as I find these (horror, compared to sci-fi) much easier to write considering I'm at an incredibly busy and stressful period of my life. Once Upon A Time was unfortunately becoming less of a hobby and more of a chore, mostly due to a lack of energy and motivation due to a bad (clinical) depression - all my effort had to be placed into other priorities such as finances and university which hadn't and still hasn't left me with any time for the story. My apologies to anybody who enjoyed it and wanted more - but hopefully I'll be continuing to write a new project (the horror), which I've started writing the prologue but do not have a name for yet.

Shared Screams: A Tale of Four Stories
In a strange, flickering theater that exists outside of time and space, four unlikely groups of characters find themselves drawn together: Coraline Jones, Norman Babcock, DJ and Jenny, and Victor Van Dort with his corpse bride. None of them know how they got there-or why. The screen before them hums with power, and soon, it begins to play... their lives. As the characters watch their own stories unfold-every joy, every trauma, every secret-they are forced to confront the choices they've made, the fears they've faced, and the people they've lost. But something isn't right. The films begin to twist, scenes altering, new moments bleeding into the reels-scenes that never happened... or perhaps haven't happened yet. Now, bound together by curiosity and a trembling anticipation, the characters stand ready-though fearful-to face whatever the future holds. While they still have questions for the person that brought them, they instead brace themselves to uncover the truth behind this spectral cinema. What awaits them on the screen? I do not own any of the movies mentioned in this story. All ownership and copyright belong to their respective creators and rights holders. I'm a first-time writer, and interestingly enough, I got the idea for this story after watching all the movies mentioned here back-to-back during a "horror" movie marathon. After diving into the stories already out there related to these films, I was especially inspired by a story created by DarKArtStuffs-a similar concept that, unfortunately, was never completed. My goal is simply to build on that fantastic idea and see it through to the end. If DarKArtStuffs would prefer this story taken down at any point, I will absolutely respect that and remove it. Also, Cover picture isn't mine. though it does look great, if the creator would like me to remove and replace with a different one, that's also fine with me Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoy the story!![What in the Science?

Please read that one first before this one, otherwise it will not make sense. Enjoy~!Complete
(Discontinued) Murder Drones - Infatuation
It was supposed to be a quick stop. A slight fixing to the engines and he was good to go. That's how it should've been. A simple in and out. But.....things never go as planned..... (-a story inspired by Theswankyseal' Love to murder for. It follows the same premise of our MC being a space traveler, but I assure you that this won't be a copy paste-) I keep starting stories but never finishing them 😅😅😅, but don't worry, I'll focus on this and DAS. Until I finish them, don't expect another story

Murdersphere Mosaic [ManXMan] [BoyXBoy]
A nobody finds himself an unwilling participant in a sprawling entertainment enterprise where fantasy, science-fiction, romance, sex, and death are served up, remixed and re-served all in the name of keeping the mysterious alien Audience satisfied. 9/17/2014 _Murdersphere Mosaic_ has finished. Thank you all current and future readers for taking a look at my first Wattpad publication. Now, for a secret. _Murdersphere Mosaic_ is the rough-draft sequel to _Blue Collar Immortal_. It did not start that way, but once I got going, a lot of thing fell into place, namely that despite starting with the intention to do fanfiction, I did not commit to actually "living" in the milieus of the Marvel or even DC Universe. They became set pieces, prop-culture references and points of familiarity for the protagonist. I am turning _Murdersphere Mosaic_ into a first draft and I plan to re-develop set life on IC-CG1. I'm stripping out the Marvel and DC references, but it will definitely be recognizable as a super-science, comic book influenced environment. The idea is quite exciting. Because this turned into a sequel, I want all of you to have the whole story. So, I am going to serialize _Blue Collar Immortal_ on Wattpad, one chapter a week, starting Friday, September 19, 2014. If you do not want to wait, or you want a different format, I have dropped the price of _Blue Collar Immortal_ to $0.99 in the Kindle store. Also, because they peripherally touch on _Blue Collar Immortal_ and _Murdersphere Mosaic_, I have reduced the prices of _Theocrat_ and _Geistwolf_ to $0.99 as well. After serializing _Blue Collar Immortal_, barring a change in circumstance, the plan is to start serializing _Geistwolf_ on a chapter a week cycle and after that, _Theocrat_. Things may change. I promise to let you know if that happens. http://www.amazon.com/Hank-Cannon/e/B00APRPIOG Thank you all for reading.Complete
Rachel Greene: The Girl, who had an Impact
my first finished book. I started writing this, when I was in 8th grade, and I ended writing it at freshman year. Warning: most of the book was written, when I was at school, meaning some stuff wasn't really researched (or was it?). And it may or may not have a lot of mistakes. This fanfic is was posted earlier on ao3 (since ao3 is cheaper, you don't have to buy subscriptions + some stuff to read it). This book doesn't have graphic smut, but it does have violence! (and pure murder). Currently, I'm writing my second book, which is mainly focused on what happened when Janna was stuck on Planet Europa 5893x. It has more murder, violence, royal drama, and maybe some romantic relationships (the only non-toxic ship in the first book were two 11 year old boys). When I was writing this book, I thought: "if tweek and craig were two 10 year olds in a healthy mlm relationship, why can't I do the same thing, but with an skateboarding goth 11 year old and a broke trans 11 year old". warning: janna, nate walker, bad (horrible) parenting, crazy oc-lore, murder and violence, toxic relationships, (surprisingly) healthy relationships, mentions of multiple fandoms (as we read the book, since my oc-lore is literally a cross-over between fandoms + my own thing), 🏳️🌈people, swearing, mentions of drugs(idk much about them but my oc's a drug dealer-) + many other stuff I should've mentioned, but didn't mention, because I was too lazy-Complete
What Lasts in Us
**COMPLETED** Several years after the world succumbed to a deadly strain of measles that turned those infected into crazed, mindless cannibals, Charlotte wanders the backroads alone, content with surviving day-to-day. That is until she crosses paths with Nate and his daughter, Emmi. Emmi is not and cannot be vaccinated against the disease, so the only way to protect her and give her some kind of life is to reunite her with her estranged mother in a quarantine zone on the other side of the country. Charlotte wants nothing to do with Nate or the girl who looks like her dead sister. She does not want to go through the grief of losing people again if something bad was to happen. And something bad does happen when Emmi is kidnapped, and it is no one's fault but Charlotte's. Through this obligation alone, Charlotte feels like it is her responsibility to get Emmi back, to right her wrong. In helping Nate pursue his kidnapped daughter, Charlotte inadvertently allows herself to feel again, to care for those other than herself. But with the clock ticking, Charlotte's new found family may just end up like her own, dead and destroyed, if Emmi is exposed to the disease that her father tried so hard to protect her from.Complete
Copper 9: A Warm Welcome
"'It's all nonsense', they said. 'The Workers will never rebel!', they said. 'It's useless to build a spaceship in your garage to escape for if they rise!' , they said. And then they all died. Now I have multiple crazy girlfriends." --Y/n L/n, 9th September 3071. The cover art is by me. Feel free to use it, but please give credit if you do use it. TRIGGER WARNINGS: yanderes. Like, groups of them. And they try to kill each other, so possible major character death. Also cringey OCs (may be added in the future). DISCLAIMER: By reading this book you agree to the following terms: I do not claim to own Murder Drones. All characters except for Y/n and my own additional characters belong to Glitch Productions. I also do not own JcJenson. REFERENCE: Y/n == Your first name L/n == Your last name E/c == Your eye color [square brackets] == author's note, translation from Spanish, or just about anything else I guess. Y/n L/n is probably autistic. He is an expert programmer and inventor who speaks a bit of Spanish (but not a lot, and translations are available). TW: yanderes A sequel is now being written, 'Copper 9: New Eyes'. [the name might give away a bit of its ending]Complete
