What if there was a lie in your head? What if your entire life was never yours? And what if you could be erased in a second? 

Nineteen year old Lieutenant Warner has spent the entirety of his two-year career searching for the Core. The heart of the Titans; artificially-intelligent military robots that have ravaged the earth. 
Sol Hughes is an errand-boy at Embert Industries, the megacorporation that produces robots. One day, he overhears a conversation that changes his life, and nearly everyone else's. Forever. 

Sol makes a terrifying discovery that leads to him making a decision that could cost everything. Later, Warner's path crosses Sol's in the most unlikely of ways, and he gradually unravels the link between Sol's memories and the apocalypse. 

But is that enough to destroy the Core?

The Church of Null: A Murder Drones Sequel Fanfiction by electricalink

In the silent depths of Copper 9, six battered and malfunctioning cores, having recently attained individuality, managed to escape their confines due to large tremors and distortions of gravity. Once under the command of their powerful creator, the Absolute Solver - they were one of the first teams of Disassembly Drones that were sent to infiltrate Copper 9's Cabin Fever Labs but were unable to achieve their mission as they had been confined for years by a crazed Worker Drone that guarded its abandoned halls. Now, stripped of their sleek bipedal forms as they are unable to self-repair and left as little more than cores with spidery appendages, they were bound by a singular purpose: to locate their creator.

HalfWorlder #Wattys2017 by HerringAli

(Highest rank #12 in sci-fi). When a dangerous ancient artifact hidden by the Egyptian gods activates after millennia, the long-dormant powers of a half-alien boy come alive just in time to save the Earth. But he never imagined winning over a girl would be harder than saving the world. And he may not even do that. THE LONG VERSION: Human life was hard enough for 17-year-old Gil Scott when his father suddenly disappeared from a temple dig. But when the half-alien teen uncovers a conspiracy surrounding the artifact his human dad was hunting, Gil must use his alien powers to track it down before it destroys the planet he calls home. With the help of a beautiful Oasen-human hybrid whose drive to succeed masks her private pain, Gil borrows his mom's spaceship, following the same clues across Egypt as his father. The teens battle strange weather phenomena and rising global panic as they race through the suffocating heat of the desert, through deluged ancient temples, and hidden libraries hiding more than just books. That is until it starts snowing on the Great Sphinx and they unearth a millennial-old message from Ra himself, addressed to Gil, with a choice that will affect everyone's future. Unraveling Ra's remaining clues, they rush to locate the powerful artifact in time. But Ra and the other ancient aliens' thousands-year-old, carefully mapped plan to save the Earth from the Aten has a fatal flaw, and their gamble may cost Gil the only life that will matter to him in the end. And possibly the planet itself. (Cover image: Photo of The Pyramids of Giza from Egypt combined with a Hubble image. Original photographer: Rom Srinivasan, 2005)

One young teen made a mistake, and now he is being tortured by his own guilt, forced to watch three of his former allies suffer at the hands of his new group of companions.

Decisions will be made, for better or worse, the outcomes of which could leave the group lost in a sea of chaos. Old acquaintances pose deadly threats, and no one can anticipate the dangers lying in wait around every corner. It is a time of despair, yet a time of courage. In an era where only the strong survive, who will continue to move forward, and who will give up on the fight entirely? Written from February to October, 2017.
