In an overcrowded future, crime and war has become overwhelming. The government plans to bomb almost all of the population on Earth and start with a new, perfect genetic race. Hundreds of years later, the next generation of humans are completely flawless, including appearance and behavior. A healthy and perfect race of humans has evolved out of the ashes.

 But Kat sees thing differently from the others, but she's not sure why exactly. There's a flaw in her code, and as she begins to rebel against the government, she finds that they aren't the only ones on Earth. Curiosity takes over as she sneaks beyond the walls, finding a not-so-perfect race in the process.

TRI - T like treachery PART 1 by _snak__

In a world where the sky fell apart, shattering reality, and an enigmatic flora transforms humanity into lost souls, there's a new normal. Humans with supernatural powers are a dime a dozen, but for Kat, it's just background noise. She couldn't care less about the extraordinary, her focus solely on freedom and the last remaining bonds to humanity. Honesty was never her concern, and in a realm of treachery, Kat forges her way, unburdened by the world's intricacies, driven only by the unyielding pursuit of what truly matters to her. Follow Kat on a path where reality fractures, powers abound, yet amidst it all, her defiance echoes louder than the cosmic chaos that surrounds her.

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!

A Kat's Tail by candycornjax

Kat was an experiment that no scientist had ever seen before...half-cat person. Since the scientists were so fascinated by her, they decided to give a tour of the lab to all the humans. While they were giving a tour, two parents were interested in adopting Kat. The parents agreed to take care of Kat as their only child. Kat always studied hard in school because her parents had very high expectations and didn't want anything to distract her from her education. Kat didn't have a lot of time to socialize with other kids because her parents said that friends would just be a distraction from work. Either way, she didn't have a choice because her parents always convinced her, and they were manipulative about it.

At first I thought I'd pick something a bit out of my comfort zone (so.... NOT SciFi for once...) to expand my horizon, but when I saw a prompt about time travel I was immediately inspired. Please keep in mind, all of this is WIP! The title, cover, and some of the content might change at any time... I have an outline and I worked hard to come up with a compelling and consistent story line, but due to the nature of the story (timey whimey stuff!) I might have to revise things a few times as I write. I'm grateful for any feedback and I hope you enjoy :)
