In this dystopian, post-apocalyptic world everything is controlled by the Government: what you eat, how much you sleep and where you walk. At birth everyone is given a timer counting down to a major life event, but no one is told what it will be. Ruby's time has almost come.

Knowing the truth turned out to be more dangerous than she could ever imagine. She also never realized she was dangerous, too.

This is the story of a girl who started the revolution. In the war against everything, she has to balance justice, save as many as possible and hopefully, save herself.

*Written during NaNoWriMo 2015 and later edited*

(This is book 3 of the P.O.E. Chronicles, Read book 1 Evolution and book 2 Selection if you haven't already) I never wanted a war. All I wanted to do was to get things back to the way they were and to keep those I love safe. But it turns out that everything was just an illusion, that the reality I lived in was all but a lie. That world was no place to live, and in order to make a better future, a future that so many have sacrificed so much to try and archive before me, I had to fight. And to do that I needed to find out the truth, no matter what horrors lie beneath it. The web of lies, of secrecy, of betrayal, is spun so far, so fine, so wide that I had been seeing only a corner of it. I didn't know if I have the strength to go on, but I know that if I don't step up, the world as we have known it will end. If you asked her four years ago what she imagined herself doing in the future, Abigail Beckett could safely tell you that it doesn't involve political meetings, living in an ancient castle and seeking advice from a three hundred years old Original. Having discovered her roots, she had inherited the responsibility to make sure the world doesn't end by the terrorist group Apocalypse and make peace among POE and Legres. With the fate of many of her friends still uncertain, she must race against time to uncover the Apocalypse's plan, pacify the government, and tried not to get killed by her grandmother.

It's been five years since the plague struck. Leah knows there are other survivors, but she's avoiding them. She is doing just fine on her own. Surviving after everyone she knew died has made her physically strong and honed her intelligence, but she is emotionally devastated. There is nothing to fear if you don't make yourself emotionally vulnerable. James has spent the last five years helping to build up a colony of survivors. He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in.

Sapphire always felt like she was missing a big part of her life not knowing anything about her birth father. Tragedy strikes and her whole world comes crashing down around her. What she thought she knew is turned upside down, shattering her into a million pieces. Can she rebuild her life now that the truth has been revealed? Sapphire's 18th birthday is approaching fast, and she can't wait to meet her wolf for the first time and hopefully meet her mate. But nobody could foresee the events that transpire when she finally does. I have put trigger warnings at the beginning of the chapter, that have violence and smut. You can skip those chapters and carry on to the next one. Shattered Pieces will be updated once a week. This story is nearly complete on my computer. ############################################################################### This is the first story that I have ever written. I look forward to your comments, but please be kind. It is not perfect. All negative comments will be deleted. The idea of this story came to me when New Zealand went into Lockdown due to Cover 19. While the rest of the country had to stay at home, the few of us who were classified as essential workers kept the country running. This story helped me cope with the added stress of all the restrictions in place. Enjoy, and please don't forget to vote and leave comments. This story is completely my idea, so NO copying it onto any other platform. A big shout out to my friend, who has been with me the whole way and has encouraged me to carry on with the story when I nearly gave up on it. @DrWhoEmily No 1 # Worrior

{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16

~PARAGON CINEMATIC UNIVERSE: PHASE 2, BOOK 1~ *This novel serves as the 1st novel of Phase 2 and a sequel to "Powerhouse" and "The Paragons". The events of this novel and the next one, "Mastermind", take place at the same time.* "The Iron Kingpin and his forces seek to bring us to heel. To subjugate us by fear and intimidation. The flame of the resistance flickers, and it's up to us to reignite it. We must stir the noble hearts of the Citadel's people. We must show them that this world has not forsaken them." -Moody Half a year after the official formation of The Paragons and Malcorchus's defeat, The Viper, Duncan Drevis, and The Crawler continue to diligently protect Mercury Heights from criminal activity. However, The Viper soon confesses to Duncan that she has grown weary of protecting the same city for four years, and wishes to have a change of scenery, even for a little while. Soon, the three of them receive a distress call from Duncan's old friend "Moody", the leader of a resistance group in a hidden city in Asia known as the Rusted Citadel, which is currently under the merciless, oppressive rule of the evil Iron Kingpin. When "Moody" calls upon The Viper, Duncan Drevis, and The Crawler to come to the city and assist the rebellion in liberating it from the Kingpin's grasp, the trio ally with Duncan's sister Monica Drevis, a.k.a. Shocker, and embark on another adventure together to save the people of the Rusted Citadel, whose tyrannical monarch has much darker plans for it.....and the world as a whole. • Cover designed by @Castiment

Genesis... ...well Genesis is a spy. She has always been a spy. In occupied France, 1944, the Nazis are so close to finding her. She's so close to being burned, but she manages. She manages to just keep their suspicions off of her. But she needn't for long, as the date of her extraction is drawing near. And as she waits, she wonders "who will I have to be next?" This is the story of Genesis, from her very beginning to her very end. _ "And when the shouting started she would not hesitate, for she was a soldier now and to hesitate meant to die." - There is an eventual canon character x OC, but I shan't tell you who because I'm mean. Just some stuff I need to point out, which I will re-iterate in the first part (the welcome and disclaimer) incase you haven't read this far: There is a lot of SWEARING- like a lot, my OC is a potty mouth. Smoking and alcohol feature fairly heavily - SMOKING is not good for your health, but if you do/are going to smoke, please do so responsibly and safely - ALCOHOL is fine as long as it is consumed responsibly, please don't binge drink as it will seriously damage your body. This story contains GRAPHIC VIOLENCE and MAJOR CHARACTER DEATH because, as you know, Band of Brothers is during WORLD WAR 2 and so there was an awful lot of that. PLEASE READ ANY AND ALL TRIGGER WARNINGS BEFORE READING THE CHAPTER, THEY ARE IMPORTANT.
