aliens computers conspiracy gamer gaming hacker hacking longboard teenager

Jacquline (Jack) Dreyer, is a painfully shy hacker. She lives for her computer, and her online persona is as real to her as the small town where she lives.

For months, Jack has been working on deciphering an 'alien' language from a sophisticated game, without success. She begins to wonder if it is a game at all, and not just a front for a Government Agency, using hackers to test their encryption algorithms.

She is ready to give up, when a chance remark leads to a breakthrough and to her astonishment, she cracks the code. 

There is no time to celebrate though, or announce her discovery: she has to get to school.

But when men in a dark SUV start following her, Jack's virtual world and real-life begin to blur.

Their appearance in her small town heralds the start of sudden disappearances, mysterious lights in the sky, and a sinister Blue Water, which does not appear to obey the laws of physics.

Jack believes she may have stumbled on a Government conspiracy, but is the truth even stranger and more deadly?All Rights Reserved

Document9 by xSuspicious

Onila is working the graveyard shift at France's Petrol Station when her life changes forever. Suddenly everything she knows is being questioned. Her love, her friendships, her career. But most of all her privacy. On the deep web anything goes, and Onila is too late to find out. She has to dig deep into the darkest depths of the shadow web, but can she dig deep enough? I got the inspiration to write this story as I was reading creepy "true" stories on the Let's Not Meet subreddit. Through that I learned about the deep web. A place on the Internet that is not indexed by standard search engines. My fascination for this side of the web led me to some pretty gruesome places. I heard a few horror stories, but my morbid curiosity only grew. Imagine the ocean. The human race has only explored about five percent. The rest is unknown, horrifying. It's the same with the Internet. The surface web is only a portion of what we can truly find on the Internet. This story takes a lot of dark turns. It's not for the faint of heart. If you know you can't handle this kind of thing: STAY CLEAR OF IT. Now that I'm done with the warnings... Enjoy...

Hacking the Sun [Old Version] by NineLight

[Highest Ranking #49 in Science Fiction] Jessica Leibniz tried being a normal teenager, but unlike most teenagers, she can tell time without a clock. She still wears a watch, but it comes with incriminating A.I. software. It's part of her fashion sense-if you call a mix of 80's nostalgia, geekism, and jagged hair a fashion sense. Otherwise, you have a normal, nineteen-year-old girl who delivers pizza and tacos by day and hacks cybersecurity networks by night. All the while, she turns heads, probably because she performs her job on a gravity board, which is relatively unorthodox in a future where aliens rule the planet. The alien takeover could have ended more violently, but there's irony in how efficient and peaceful Earth has become a hundred years later. Corporations still reign supreme, but aliens lie at the top of the social ladder. Azareans they call them, overlords who've constructed a new kind of city for the modern world. The Eden: a modern megapolis. Accustomed to life in the modern city, Jessica has learned to embrace challenge when it comes her way. Without a cause, she confides in her three friends or smacks into boredom. And when she seamlessly cracks an uncrackable corporate security algorithm, nothing makes sense. Faced with world-turning revelations, the life she's led seems trivial next to a hundred-year lie and tragedy.

The Hidden Game by bjcoupland

Amelia Swanson's parents were murdered when she was four. The killer was never found. Twelve years later, she cracks a cipher that her mother left behind-and it leads to one of the most powerful men in the country. But asking questions about the past is dangerous when you live in a surveillance state. AI assistants monitor every word. City walls separate the worthy from the "uncounted." And the conspiracy that killed her parents is very much alive. Now Amelia and her best friend Marv are being hunted. By a system that erases inconvenient truths. By enemies who've killed to keep secrets buried. And by something that stalks her dreams-something that knows her name. The deeper she digs, the more she realizes: her parents weren't just victims. They were players in a hidden game. A game where the stakes are power, control, and the truth itself. And Amelia just stepped onto the board. ---- What to expect: - Conspiracy thriller with psychological horror elements - Found family & loyal friendships - Surveillance capitalism critique - Mystery that compounds (every answer raises new questions) - Slow-burn investigation with escalating danger - NO romantic subplot (friendship-focused) Content warnings: Parental death (past), trauma/PTSD, child in peril (flashbacks), violence, paranoia/surveillance themes ---- - New Transmissions: every 7-10 days - Current Phase: Book 1, Season 1. In progress - updating regularly. - Future Plans: Book 1 has 80 Transmissions. 3-book trilogy. 9 seasons in total. (over 750,000 words)

Down Under by AmyMarieZ

|WATTYS 2022 WINNER - HORROR| Shawn, a convicted criminal, never thought she'd see the sun again, let alone call another star system her home. When she's offered an out from her prison sentence, she embarks on a dangerous interstellar expedition along with 18 of Earth's most intelligent criminals. Their task is to set up a base on a supposedly habitable planet and prepare it for colonization. Although the planet has liquid water and a breathable atmosphere, it is believed to host only microbial life. However, upon arriving, Shawn and the rest of the colonists learn that assumption was grossly incorrect. In a brutal attack from rampaging wildlife, everyone but Shawn and four other colonists are killed. The five survivors retreat to the cavernous network beneath the ground seeking safety, but they soon come to a terrible discovery. These caves aren't ordinary caves, and they are no safer down under than they were on the surface. [][][] This was originally my entry for the 2021 Open Novella Contest, and it received an honorable mention! It has now been expanded into a full length novel. I used prompt number 53: "When wildlife starts rampaging, all the humans are forced underground. However, they come to a terrible discovery that being underground is no safer than being on the surface."

Anomaly by Emily_the_wroter

(CURRENTLY BEING EDITED FIRST 14 CHAPTERS ARE DONE!) First book in the subject 001 series Subject 001 was never meant to exist. Born from E.D.E.N.'s most ambitious experiment and abandoned just as quickly, Ellie is the girl whispered about in locked rooms and classified files-the mistake too powerful to control, the anomaly that terrifies even the people who created her. After a lifetime of confinement, Ellie escapes into a world she was taught to fear, only to discover it's nothing like the sterile halls she grew up in. With Ava, Mia, Noah, and Liam-kids just as broken, brilliant, and dangerous as she is-Ellie begins to unravel the truth behind the experiments that stole their childhoods. But E.D.E.N. isn't done with them. Hunted by the Governor and the adults who shaped them, manipulated by shadows wearing familiar faces, and haunted by the dark promise Henry whispers about destroying E.D.E.N. together, Ellie is forced into a deadly game of survival where trust is a luxury and power is a curse. As her abilities grow-and her memories return-Ellie must face the truth buried in her bloodline: She wasn't created to save the world. She was created to end it. And in the fight between what she was made to be and who she chooses to become... only one version of her can survive. ----------------------------------- W A R N I N G T H I S S T O R Y C O N T A I N S : → Mild Violence →explicit language → Mild Child neglect ------------------- H I G H E S T R A N K I N G S : 546 #dystopian 25 #Anomaly (most impressive ranking) 2 #powerfulgirl 6 #undergroundworld 2 #geneticengineering ---------------- S T A R T E D →18/8/25 C O M P L E T E → 10/9/25 WORD COUNT : 22.8k

Ch.I.P. 1: Reactivation {EDITING} by SydCarv

?Highest #12 in '#technology' (17 June 2018)? ⚛ Highest #228 in Science Fiction (30 May 2018) ⚛ "It's alright." I waved my hand dismissively. "I'm allergic to bullshit." ♧♣♧♣♧♣♧♣♧♣♧ Maya Scoren is unique. But she's not the only one, there are nine others supposed to be besides her; two of which never made it past their mother's womb and one who's incompatible. What makes them special, is also what makes them dangerous. Ripped from their normal, day-to-day,school life, family and friends with no warning, they find out who they are. And why they're alive. But fitting back into that normal life they missed so much is proving to be hard. Especially for Maya, who has a tendency to get herself in trouble and extraordinary situations ENTIRELY her fault. (She'd rather die than admit that of course) Old life brings the problem of boys, unwanted advances, homework, teachers and of course, a boyfriend with she had a rather uncharacteristic meet-up. Scott, Sed, Andy are her childhood friends all the way with her in this. Almost all the way. They didn't expect her to change or to come back at all and they are having a HARD time adjusting to the new Maya. She's dangerous, she's hot and she knows it. She has done a lot in the past two years that will catch up to her and stuff after that which refuses to stay hidden. Controlling CEOs, sensitive boyfriend, an obssessed boss is just the tip of the iceberg. And I'm not even touching the problems at her school. Will all this unwanted attention put her in trouble? Author's note: this was my first story ever. It has no proper plot or story but it's fun to read! Also, lots of typos. And grammar mistakes. Tons of them. Tons. You have been warned. (Actually not that many but you've still been warned)

He thinks he is doomed, until a strange creature that resembles him, but ugly, finds him and surprisingly, helps him and works alongside him to get him back into space, but what if things take a turn and end up basically kidnapping that clumsy female human while trying to get home? And what's worse, her presence is doing things to him he refused to feel again, and yet there he was, craving another human and at the same time, wanting her far, far away from him. Until the attraction gets harder and harder to deny and his primal instincts insist on claiming her as his mate, but, would she be willing to leave behind her home to move to another planet, far away from everything she knows?

Undercover by MartaCo06

*THIS IS A CRIME FICTION BUT THERE ISN'T AN OPTION FOR THAT* ____________________________ There's no way to know how a case is going to go... You may think that you are all ready to go, but nothing will prepare you for entering court and see the faces of people that trusted you, and you broke that trust. Nobody will EVER understand that pain until they experience it first hand. This is one of the narrow list of Madison's undercover cases... Maybe one of the hardest ones. ____________________________ EXCERPT "Why is this beeping?"- The boss asks while watching the screen. "Beeping?"- Garrett freaks out. "YES!" We share a look before somewhat running over to see. "A virus?"- I question not moving my eyes from the screen. The last person I hacked was his computer which can mean 2 things: It spread from my desk They installed it on my computer. Either way, somebody touched that one before I came here. ________________ **Credits to @lollyti for the cover** Also, yes, I know it's Kim Burgess in the cover

Mako by therealraymundtamayo

In the rain-slicked, neon-drenched labyrinth of the Subic Bay Freeport Zone, some ghosts don't rattle chains-they haunt the wires. They call him Mako. To the city's criminal underworld, he is a digital phantom, a legendary hacker capable of crashing cranes and emptying bank accounts with a keystroke. The truth is far more strange, and far more dangerous. Mako is a man who died and was reborn as something new: a technopath. His consciousness is a living network protocol, his senses a symphony of data streams and electrical currents. He is a ghost in the machine, a predator who can control any technology he can touch, a power he uses for a single, obsessive purpose: to dismantle the empire of the corrupt official who created him and left him for dead. But Mako's quiet, methodical war for revenge is thrown into chaos when he discovers he is not the only phantom in the region. He witnesses the brutal efficiency of a mysterious old watchmaker and the raw, elemental power of a warrior king from the mountains. He realizes his personal vendetta is just one small piece of a much larger, secret war. When his hunt leads him to a horrifying truth about human trafficking and a new generation of stolen weaponry, Mako is forced to make a choice: remain a ghost in the wires, a cold, logical predator seeking vengeance, or embrace the last vestiges of his stolen humanity to become a protector. To save the innocent, the machine must decide if he is still a man, and the ghost must finally choose a side in a war that will define the soul of the city. [Biyayaverse Book 3]

Lunar Virus ✔️ by its_really_not

Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258! HR: 203 in science fiction (5/8/18) Completed on August 15th, 2018 (Indian independence day!) *******This is not a zombie novel
