Welcome to Caliatha, the only place on Earth that contains breathable air after World War 4.

In 2304, scientists found a way to inject technological DNA into your bloodstream. It  would then transfer you to Caliatha where you would become your own avatar, changing anything about your status before entering.

Finally, Joelle Adams turns 16, and is able to get tested for entry into Caliatha. You see, in order to get in, you must have amazing scores on your gaming record that was taken throughout the torturous school years. She has been dreaming of the time she would finally be able to go into the actual game world. 

What she doesn't realize, is that once you go to Caliatha, there's no going back. The saying, "all fun and games till someone gets hurt" doesn't apply to the virtual land. When you run out of lives you become invisible, non-existent, to Caliatha, to the world. No one can see, hear, or feel you. Loneliness and depression cause the "Losers" to commit suicide after Game Over. 

When Joelle enters Caliatha, all of this is revealed to her, but yet, she discovers she has a talent that no other has ever known of, in Caliatha.

"But before the six friends could ponder on it or even think what to do with the photo, everything started to move. They felt they are being pulled by an imaginary force and the strength of this pull is too much that cannot even hold onto anything. They are lifted off their feet and pulled back to somewhere they do not know. But they are trying to hold onto each other's hand." Six friends reuniting after 10 years from their high school graduation. They have not seen each other face to face and now are reuniting as they go back to their hometown after getting a bizarre form of 'Beacon' or 'Call'. As soon as they step into their hometown, they face things. From learning about the death of a family member, to strange news about family, about their childhood homes, to learning things about their past that they never knew and even finding someone to love. Strange occurrences followed them, but the six friends did not want to back down from figuring out what is true and what is not. After all their past is what shaped them to be how they are now. As the six friends continue their journey to finding truth, they are faced with some challenges. Some normal ones and some very bizarre ones. How can one day's event cause so much uproar? How can one day when the six friends remember having a detention change to them being missing as everyone in town tells them? Read to find out how the six friends-Ivory, Lauren, Zoey, Ethan, Reed and Cassandra- navigate through the strange things they find to the path of finding the truth. Who said reuniting with old friends is always nice and comforting? These six friends would differ as they reacquaint themselves with their hometown, Shadowland.

I wait for him to look at me. "The fuck you staring at me for,bitch??" He snarls. I lean in quickly,pressing my lips to his. He freezes,eyes widening. Then he suddenly shoved me away,hard.

"the attitude thing. Stop it." He looks forward again and I smile,smugly. "Why,am I intimidating?" I grin. "Intimidating?" He looks at me,thumping his cigarette. "Honey,you could never intimidate me." "Then why should I stop?" He leans in my face. "because when you get an attitude like that,it makes me want to fuck the shit out of you."

Welcome to a world where pixels are the new reality, and the metaverse is king. Meet Alex, a tech-savvy misfit with a rebellious spirit, who stumbles upon a hidden secret that could shatter the digital illusion. It all starts innocently enough with a glitch in the code, a whisper of something amiss in the flawless façade of their virtual existence. But as the anomaly beckons, curiosity turns to obsession, and Alex can't resist the urge to unravel the truth. Joined by a diverse crew of fellow hackers, gamers, and digital outlaws, they embark on an electrifying quest to pierce the veil of the virtual world. Along the way, they'll encounter enigmatic AIs, navigate treacherous dungeons, and unearth cryptic messages left by a shadowy figure known only as "The Architect." As the lines between their augmented reality and the tangible one blur, they must confront a stark reality: some secrets are better left buried in the code.

But in a world where the digital and physical collide, where virtual friends become real allies, Alex and their companions are about to discover that their rebellion against the virtual regime has far-reaching consequences they could never have imagined.
