Emmett was used to being caught between college and his engineering internship, but when he gets caught between a powerful hero and an even stronger villain, he becomes collateral damage. Instead of dying, he wakes up a cyborg. Turns out his boss wasn't just an eccentric inventor, and the old man just gave him a shining opportunity to be a hero.

His roommate works for an evil corporation. And Emmett is small fry. Just a Class 1 hero.

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!

Warfare's Chimeras
The year is 2112. Yellowstone has erupted, drowning America in ash and shadow. Crops have withered, fresh water vanishes faster than it can be replenished, and the world's climate rages beyond control. Nations collapse. Wars ignite. Humanity is no longer fighting to live-but to outlast extinction. In secret labs, science has been twisted beyond morality. Soldiers, drafted to fight for mankind's survival, are subjected to experiments meant to forge the ultimate weapon. But instead of saviors, abominations are born. Decorated war hero Sergeant Clark refuses to stand by as his brothers-in-arms are turned into monsters. His search for justice leads him straight to the scientist who engineered the atrocities and sacrificed ethics for survival. But what begins as bitter enmity twists into a fragile alliance when the two discover a darker truth. When the truth about mankind's engineered downfall comes to light, survival depends on their uneasy bond. Together, they must navigate a world unraveling into chaos, where every choice is a gamble and every ally could be a traitor. If they cannot stop the hidden power that set this catastrophe in motion, the final war will not be fought between nations- It will be fought between man and monster.![Against the Tide - A New Elysium Story [Complete]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/143490393-256-k431328.jpg)
Against the Tide - A New Elysium Story [Complete]
Augments - digital implants and robotic prostheses - can enhance abilities, bestow entirely new ones, or replace parts of the body that have been broken or injured. At least they used to, before they were declared illegal during the Purge. But augments were never meant to replace parts of the human brain. So when her brain got damaged beyond organic repair, she was fixed using other parts of machines. And they ended up saving more of her than just her physical body, as one day, she found herself no longer alone inside the expanse of her own mind. Amy Larsson is many things. A covert augment. An escaped slave. An infamous space pirate. A spy for New Elysium. A terrorist. An overall badass bitch to be reckoned with - rumor has it she can hot-wire anything with just a rubber band and a bobby pin. But what not even the android crew of her ship, the Blackstar, is aware of, is the fact that Amy Larsson is even more than that: she is two people, in one body. And they are planning to commit the most audacious heist of the galaxy. _______________ Featured on Wattpad Beyond Sol's "Sunflower Space Opera" reading list First Place in the The Chaos Awards 4 (Science Fiction) [2018-07-21] Third Place in The Rebel Awards 2018 (Science Fiction) [2018-09-16] Highest Rankings: #2 in SpaceTravel [28.02.2019] #8 in SpaceOpera [28.02.2019] #9 in Cyborg [28.02.2019] #14 in Mind [28.02.2019] #15 in Space [28.02.2019] #42 in FemaleProtagonist [28.02.2019] #54 in Science Fiction [07.05.2018] Spin-off story / prequel to @Red_Leasia 's "New Elysium": https://www.wattpad.com/story/106699395-new-elysium We're co-writing the sequel "New Elysium 2 - Weapons of War" on our shared profile @New_ElysiumComplete
I didn't say I was gone
What would happen if emotions became socially unacceptable? If love made people nervous? If laughter drew too much attention? If sadness was hidden to survive? Selene spent her entire life growing up in this society, learning to look unaffected whilst everything explodes inside. Every reaction is observed, measured, and quietly judged before it becomes a problem. In this society, people are rewarded for being obedient, predictable and quiet. She is none of those things. When she begins speaking to someone she was never supposed to find, the conversations feel harmless at first. Then necessary. Then dangerous. The person she finds speaks to the parts of her that the world has taught her to silence, and once she experiences that kind of connection, she cannot stop wanting more of it. But once she tastes the possibility of genuine connection, there's no going back.
