ark dystopian postapocalyptic scifi society space

The year is 2049 and the Sun threatens to destroy all life on the planet. In the wake of the apocalypse, some are killing each other over the tickets to the last space ark, while others have chosen to live out their final years in quiet rural towns. Still Pond is one of those peaceful places. 

Seventeen-year-old Stella Hartman lives there with her big family and her brother, who she is secretly and madly in love with. But “mad” barely begins to describe her obsession. An ordinary, quiet girl who paints pictures and practices fencing in the daytime, Stella moonlights as a sinister and hateful being, plotting against her brother’s suitors. And now there is a new one, in the form of a redheaded and disgustingly cheerful photographer called Rhea.

And when a ticket is thrown into the equation, things get complicated...All Rights Reserved

The Planet of Chadom by angiexvi

By 2030, a series of nuclear wars caused the Earth's collapse. Hope for humanity vanishes until the discovery of a new planet. Blessed with this second chance, mankind creates a whole new society, thriving off sustainable technology and resources. Chadom 1,000 years later, Sapphire Aphelion, a reserved 16-year-old from a low income family, is born. Sapphire only wants to do the best for her family and community, but lately, she starts questioning the true history of Chadom, and its class distinctions-- the government controls where everyone lives and their classes. Her snooping puts her in conflict with Gremie Chadom, the son of a wealthy politician. He agrees to help her advance to a higher status and even a safer city. Her head tells her not to trust Gremie, but her heart's not listening. The whirlwind romance might be her only means of escape. But is it right to leave everyone else behind while she finds comfort? Answering her guilty conscience would force her to break the law and norms of Chadomian society. Or she could just take her good luck and run. Thanks to @meha-k for the cover! *plot holes, errors, will occur*

On the other side of the continent, away from the constant war, the Hayter family live a relatively normal life in a settlement known as Haven, but they have another reason to fear the Republic. The children have a secret that their parents have made clear they can not reveal to anyone else, but they are about to discover the truth about their unusual abilities after their family is ripped apart.

Kathleen had been imprisoned for years. She had no idea who they were or why she was there. Every day for years it had been the same thing. No talking or communicating with her captors after the first year she no longer tried. Getting beaten for making any noise at all. They didn't even speak within hearing distance of her. She was given a book and daily exercise but hadn't seen the sun or outside since she was put in her cell. Until that day when it all changed. Aliens existed and she was going somewhere with them, not sure as to where but at least she was out of her cell. She would not go back in one no matter how nice her new 'cage' seemed. Thinking of continuing this as another story with other humans and aliens. Like after Kathleen's abduction.
