Terror by Booping123

(Book 3 of Vanished) Ten months have passed since the adults vanished. Darkness still hangs over Simcoe, and those who remain live in fear of what Ashley is planning. Having developed all the mutant powers, Ashley has only one goal: to kill everyone, especially the mutant child. Everyone knows it. But one person is determined to stop her. They've survived skin-burning storms and a deadly illness that wiped half their population, but this is danger worse than anything before. As Ashley's and Divina's endgames draw closer, stopping what's coming won't just leave scars, but it will demand sacrifices, and death may come from the most unexpected places.

Hybrid: The Awakening by DuNdUnDUN2006

Nobody expects something supernatural to happen to them. Those kind of things only happened in comics. Fairy Tales. Unrealistic dreams that you'd fall asleep to, silently wishing for them to come true. At least, that was what these three teenagers thought. It turns out that there is so much more to their simple universe than they ever could have imagined. After each finding a strange alien artifact, the teens are suddenly thrusted into an intergalactic war. Alien species everywhere are trying to hunt down the most powerful weapons in the galaxy. And they are the ones in possession of it. When they run into a girl that claims to be from another planet, the three kids learn about the power given to them and the responsibilities that come along with it. Instantly, they are the most popular people in the galaxy. And for once, popularity couldn't feel more like a curse. Fighting grudges, fear, and distrust, the Chosen humans must travel to the one place on Earth where they might be safe. And with strange new powers, the teenagers struggle to live in the unfamiliar world they thought they knew so well.

(Highest Ranking: 14 in Science Fiction) 1 year ago, all of humanity was changed in an instant by an event known as the Singularity, a massive shockwave of energy that encompassed the entire planet. Anyone who was exposed to it was altered on a genetic level. Some were given extraordinary abilities and powers unlike anything ever seen before. Others were mutated into terrifying creatures that now roam the Earth as monsters. Civilization has now collapsed, and humans have become an endangered species. Wren Sawyer and his younger sister Ivy are two of those endangered beings, and struggle to survive in the remains of what was once their lives, but also manage to uncover a strange mystery that will unravel the terrible truth behind the Singularity...

Vanished by Booping123

(Book 1) Everyone over the age fifteen in the small town of Simcoe has vanished. No warning. No explanation. No trace. Cellphones won't turn on. Websites won't load. The news has gone silent. Every adult is simply gone. Cut off from the outside world and possibly the last survivors on earth, the remaining children are left to fend for themselves. Some act out recklessly. Others try to control. New bullies and victims rise, and secrets once buried begin to resurface. But the disappearance isn't the only threat. Stranges powers are awakening in some of them. Something toxic flows through that's unnatural, dangerous, and spreading. As chaos tightens its grip on Simcoe, hope of rescue begins to fade. For those fourteen and under, normal life us over.

Danger by Booping123

(Book 2 of Vanished) Four months has passed since everyone over the age of fifteen vanished. As canned food runs out, hunger drives survivors to desperate measures. Then a new threat arrives. A brutal snowstorm unlike anything from the old world. The snow on contact and wind that carries a deadly virus. With the power grid completely down, injuries and illness spread fast, and death begins to claim more lives than ever. Just as hope seems loss, unexpected dangers and choices emerge that could change everything.

The Golden One by clayarobey

Please feel free to contact me with any discretions in grammar. This was my first book ever written, so I expect there to be flaws and would love input. The earth is under attack by an unknown force, and humanity is losing the battle. John might just have a secret that could help turn the tide of this apocalypse. How can four unlikely heroes not only survive in this chaos, but save humanity as well?

REBIRTH [COMPLETE] by nialler9298

BOOK 2 After chaos destroyed, America fell into pandemonium and there was no communication with the U.S. After a pandemic crisis on the East coast, most civilization was abandoned near the Atlantic Ocean. After that, the world slowly began to fall to pieces and almost every country made a scramble to figure a way to make space travel easier so they could colonize a planet. But a new leader came out of the ashes and proclaimed they would consider the apocalypse a "rebirth" and proceeded (with his advanced engineering) to clear radioactivity from America and make it livable again. With the help of his crew, he builds a high security city and begins to build out past the east coast. Shortly after he rebuilds NY, he disappears and his advisor rises to power. He is a fair but cruel master (calling himself a Lord) and some people refuse to work for him. These people manage to escape the oppression of the Lord and live out on the wasteland that was once a great country. Some band together to make right communities and others rough it out by themselves, scavenging for a living.

The Freaks by DanielEvans01

After a disaster strikes the earth, teenagers are all that survive. But they develop strange and dangerous abilities that brand them as monsters. They're nicknamed the Freaks. Luca's a Freak like no other. When he turns eighteen, he's sentenced to death by a government sent from space, known as the Soldiers, to wipe the earth of the teens and start new, but the Freaks don't allow that. Luca is saved from execution by Freaks who bring him to safety, and there he finds not only food and shelter, but more like him surviving, when he thought they had all died. He's immediately given a task by the mysterious leader of the Freaks, and he's faced with two options: should he sit back and watch as his own are captured and killed by the enemy he's dealt with before, or should he risk everything - even his own life - to save them all?
