"I never shoulda told anyone about that light; about those weird buildings I saw, floatin' in the clouds. And most of all, I never should have told no one about that girl who showed up one day... in that old-timey blue dress..." - Morris Lauderman, November the 3rd, 1958

The year is 1958, and the underwater city of Rapture hovers on the brink of civil unrest. On one side is Andrew Ryan, the founder of Rapture, one who believes that the modern world is created by great men who strive to make their own way. On the other is Frank Fontaine: smuggler, black market operative, and one of the most powerful men in the city. Theirs is a clash of ideology and morality that will end in blood. 
When Elizabeth arrives in the city on an errand of retribution, she is swept up in Rapture's genetic arms race, a war of supermen and splicers. Probing the apogees of Rapture's social elite and the shadows of the city's unspoken horrors, Elizabeth must track down the final iteration of her father while navigating the labyrinthian deceptions of Ryan and Fontaine, and unraveling a conspiracy that will bring the city to its knees.

Awakening - The Last Science #1 by Etzoli

No one ever knows the whole story... Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person. For Alden Bensen, a directionless high school graduate, this discovery could mean an escape from his empty existence. To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself. In the face of an unsuspecting world, their decisions shape the growth of a budding society discovering untold power. This potent force offers anyone the power to change humanity forever - or send it cascading into swift and total annihilation. ----- The Last Science is an ongoing science-fiction / low-fantasy web novel series.

Kissing the Devil Goodbye by Bellisima1009

Do paranormal things, witches and magic exist? There are gifts that are waiting to be discovered. The mythical power is just waiting beyond the deepest darkest tunnel of the unknown. Only the brave learns to test the waters amidst the labyrinth of its knotted mystery. PLEASE, NO PLAGIARISM. (~Created July 6, 2018:Finished August 5, 2018~) Being engrossed in studying his current case detained him from leaving at once until he forgot the time. He never mentioned to Hera that he's going home after two decades. Only his youngest child knows of his trip back home. Whether he believes in curse or not. It's his 45th birthday tomorrow and he must be home to keep his promise to his mother. His family had never forsaken him, he did. He'd been ignoring their summons since he turned his back from them. Perhaps it's time to grant their plea. He closes his office and walks to the elevator. "Good evening, Artemis." The man in a black jacket greets him. Artemis smiles at the stranger. "Do I know you?" The stranger puts his arm around the stunned lawyer. Behind the unknown man's dark glasses are bloodshot eyes ready to scare the wits out of his prey. "Your mother does. She's expecting me to greet you happy birthday." Removing his dark glasses, he stares at his victim to corrupt his eyes. Insurmountable fear assaults Artemis as excruciating pain drills on his eyeballs. A horrible scream slits through the silence of the night when the clock strikes twelve. As the elevator opens, the stranger loosens his grip and the victim falls on the floor. Covering his bleeding eyes, Artemis winces from severe pain. The man whistles away as he walks past the dead body of the security guard in the lobby to the snowy road outside the building. His victim crawls out of the closing elevator. The curse is true. He must get into his car before his sight totally leaves him. He must warn his family. " I must save Athena!"

Dragonfire: A Gulliver Swift Adventure by lhowardalexander

Gulliver Swift is-was-an archeologist-adventurer who traveled the world in search of lost tombs, temples, and treasure. But his last expedition was attacked by a tribe of feathered fire-breathing monsters out of the Cretaceous. His financial backer was killed. The legendary artifact they'd come to find was left behind along with the evidence of its discovery. His story debunked, Swift became a pariah reduced to teaching Archeology 101 to freshmen. It is now 22 years later. And the serial killer suddenly terrorizing New York City may be one of those monsters. The Police Commissioner wants Gulliver's help. And he wants no part of it. What he saw on the island was the figment of a fevered imagination cracking under pressure-but does a figment leave a trail of charred bodies torn apart by what could only be non-human hands? It is only when the beast strikes too close to home that Swift is forced to wonder whether he could have been right in the first place. If he was-is-how did it get here? Or, rather, who could have brought it?

Little One (Bioshock) by fleshblush

❝ Watching her with the Big Daddy, it was suddenly so clear. It wouldn't stop, it would never leave her. It would never hurt her or shout at her or get drunk and hit her or say it was too busy to spend time with her. And it would die to protect her. Of all the powerful men in Rapture over the years, this thing, this freak of science, was the only thing that measured up in an insane world, it was the sanest choice. ❞

Fast Future Furious Past by LShaney

Nearly twenty-two years ago Skylar's mom left the smoggy skies of LA to start a new life. Now after her mother's death, twenty-year-old Skylar returns to the very city that her mother left. Finding protection from a father that never knew she existed. Excerpt- "Sky sweetheart your mother admitted she was wrong keeping this from you for so long. But she did try to make things right." Skylar nodded her head and finally looked up from the photo. "He's coming isn't he?" she asked her voice sounding strained even to her own ears. Alicia nodded, "He said that even though they had not spoken in years that he had spoken to your grandparents and they insisted he come even though they weren't." "You think they told him?" Skylar asked her eyes widening. "That could be a possibility but I can't say for sure." "Oh god," Skylar said burying her face in her hands, "This is going to be weird; I mean how many people can say they met their dad for the first time at their mom's funeral?" **Takes place between Fast Five and Fast and Furious 6**

Steady Ground | ✔ by ToriHope-

[ 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐲𝐬 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟐 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 ] He's damaged. He's lost. And worse of all, his memories have come to life. If he wants to find peace, he'll need to redefine what it really means to move on. -- For the first time in years, Atlas feels like he's separated himself from the misfortune in his life. He's healed, he's rented a decent apartment, he's settled into a solid-enough-for-him job working as a grunt for some scientists. Now he's (reluctantly) traveling to the spring snows of Alaska, where they plan to test the first run of their earthquake-harnessing technology. But something goes wrong. They don't harness the energy of an earthquake. No. Instead, the ground rips apart. A massive crevice forms, leading deep into the Earth. The chasm lulls him forward like a Siren, telling him tales of his mother, of her laughter, of her scent of strong sandalwood, and of his life before her death. Waking up in what he can only describe as Hell, he's confronted with every misfortune in his life. Forced to befriend mirages made from his most painful childhood memories or pay severe consequences, he travels the twisted realm in search of answers.
