The Core: The First Guest by Perditaveritas
54 parts Complete
❖2021 Watty Awards Shortlist❖ Kevin was just a normal 10 year old kid until he saw a woman vanish right before his eyes. This made Kevin just a little bit different. He paid more attention to people now. Little did he know that this little difference would kill him the next time he encountered another alien about to return home. It would tear him apart, cell by cell, until he was unmade. His mind being transported away. --- So distantly far away there is a race that advanced to the point where they built dyson spheres to house their civilizations. In their continual expansion, they seeded galaxies with pods and connection satellites. Over time they upgraded their dyson spheres into matryoshka brain Cores. Imagine a computer powered by a star. Citizens of Cores no longer age once they upload their minds into the virtual living system of the Core. While they didn't age, most still choose to cycle through life and death though at a different scale of time compared to our lives. Citizens can visit other planets and live there as if they were on a "vacation". Mercury is Earth's hub connected to the closest Core and Earth is a remote vacation spot for wealthy citizens. When the main character was 10 he witnessed a citizen returning to the Core. The story continues 10 odd years later when he again witnesses a similar situation unfolding and manages to touch the person returning to the Core. This causes him to be swept up in the transfer as well and for his mind to join as a "Guest" user of the Core. As a Guest he has limited powers, a starting balance of zero cr or Citizen credits, and no idea how he can get home. He is the first human to ever become a Guest of a Core. Where money itself is the highest form of their science.
The Island by AmyJohnson895
44 parts Complete
"This is The Island, a prison designed for minors like me- too young to be executed, too old to be reformed, and too much of a stain on humanity to let exist. It was 'the answer' to the growing crime rate resulting from a world that was falling apart. The details evade me, but there is one thing I know. The water doesn't seem as scary as it did before." When Jordyn wakes up in the middle of a tropical forest in the mouth of a cat too big to be real, she decides this isn't how she wants to die. The Island has other plans, though. It was designed to kill her, and it will bring out every gun in the arsenal to do so. Her life becomes a game of survival from the mutant and venomous animals, severe temperature changes, and impossible weather scenarios that exist in this government manufactured prison. The twist? She has no idea who she is, where she came from, or why she committed first-degree arson. In this mixture of "The Hunger Games" and "Maze Runner", Jordyn has to unravel the truth before nature kills her- or die not knowing. Highest Ranking: #45 in Science Fiction **2nd Place Winner of the 2017 Rose Awards** **Featured as a Wattpad Pick on 11/8/19**
Wicked Game → Wastelands Prequel by multifandoms_
19 parts Complete Mature
❝People can only take so much until they rebel back.❞ Humanity was on the brink of extinction. First came the solar flares. Then, the fires. The fear. The famine. What came after, was almost unimaginable. A virus. A virus that attacked the brain. The Flare, they called it. And then, came WCKD. Their goal was simple; find a cure to the virus that was sweeping its way over the world, driving many to insanity. Their method to finding it, though, was different; take hundreds of immunes and those not, then throw them into harsh environments. Wipe their memories, throw them into a Maze and study their brain patterns. Thomas, Teresa and Adeline are on the other side of the observation screens. On the other side of the experiment. They weren't allowed to talk to the subjects. Weren't allowed to form any friendships with them. That was a strict rule. But, defying WICKED's rules, Adeline suddenly becomes incredibly close to one boy, who has taken an interest in her. And this closeness, blooms into feelings between them. But, WCKD had already taken so much from them, it's no surprise they would take this away from her, too. | A series of ten short stories, ranging over the six years before Wastelands began, before the events of the Maze Runner film trilogy. Loosely follows the Maze Runner Origins comic. |

"a girl playing?" i pull a disgusted look to him. "what's that supposed to mean?" - "he's forbidden to do any building work for 2 days." he sighed, exhausted. i crossed my arms in disappointment. "are you twisting my fucking neck in?" "what kind of punishment is that? compared to that, mine was like getting a pole shoved up my asshole!" -
