The Core: The First Guest by Perditaveritas

❖2021 Watty Awards Shortlist❖ Kevin was just a normal 10 year old kid until he saw a woman vanish right before his eyes. This made Kevin just a little bit different. He paid more attention to people now. Little did he know that this little difference would kill him the next time he encountered another alien about to return home. It would tear him apart, cell by cell, until he was unmade. His mind being transported away. --- So distantly far away there is a race that advanced to the point where they built dyson spheres to house their civilizations. In their continual expansion, they seeded galaxies with pods and connection satellites. Over time they upgraded their dyson spheres into matryoshka brain Cores. Imagine a computer powered by a star. Citizens of Cores no longer age once they upload their minds into the virtual living system of the Core. While they didn't age, most still choose to cycle through life and death though at a different scale of time compared to our lives. Citizens can visit other planets and live there as if they were on a "vacation". Mercury is Earth's hub connected to the closest Core and Earth is a remote vacation spot for wealthy citizens. When the main character was 10 he witnessed a citizen returning to the Core. The story continues 10 odd years later when he again witnesses a similar situation unfolding and manages to touch the person returning to the Core. This causes him to be swept up in the transfer as well and for his mind to join as a "Guest" user of the Core. As a Guest he has limited powers, a starting balance of zero cr or Citizen credits, and no idea how he can get home. He is the first human to ever become a Guest of a Core. Where money itself is the highest form of their science.

The experiment. by shrosz

They used my vulnerability against me. They used that weapon, to make me accept their stupid idea. And I of course, accepted it, I didn't even know what they were going to do. They tugged and poked and even shoved their disgusting finger in your wound, just to see you cry. To see you change. No pitty in their eyes. They just continue. They drag you around with metal chains, hit you and turn you into a experiment. But I had enough of the tugging, the clawing, the moaning, the crying and pleading for them to stop, but simply feeding them with our pain. They turned me into something, that neither do they know what I am. Their afraid of me, of my reflexes, my strength. I killed a lot of them. They say I have a cold heart, that I don't feel nothing. That's why they call me: Death -----------------------------------------************************************--------------------------------------------- Death.

At first I thought I'd pick something a bit out of my comfort zone (so.... NOT SciFi for once...) to expand my horizon, but when I saw a prompt about time travel I was immediately inspired. Please keep in mind, all of this is WIP! The title, cover, and some of the content might change at any time... I have an outline and I worked hard to come up with a compelling and consistent story line, but due to the nature of the story (timey whimey stuff!) I might have to revise things a few times as I write. I'm grateful for any feedback and I hope you enjoy :)

Deep Black Road: The Head of the Snake by Arther2002

It all started in 2079 with the three of them. First there was the boy, who loved robotics and chess, but was crushed by a robot run amok. Then there was the general, who wasn't about to let something as trivial as a fatal illness interfere with his plan to take over the Federation of North America. And finally, the girl: being groomed by her wealthy and influential father for business success and political power, she was cut down in a freak car accident. The general got his wish to be made robotic, and proceeded to topple the provincial government of Foredan on his way to taking on the rest of the Federation. The boy's father, clinging to his last emotional connection with his late wife, put his son's soul into a memorial robot; but the robot boy got tangled up in the general's machinations, and fell into the hands of the renegade Followers of the Anointed One. The girl, having being roboticized at her father's expense, threw her lot in with the general's scheme, intending to ride his coattails to the power she sought. None of them counted on the Prophet. Would the boy, having been granted a 'great and terrible' destiny when he hung between death and life, be able to find his way to it ... on the Deep Black Road?

The Book of All by rolanddice

"Knowledge is power," most say, but power corrupts all the same. See, knowledge exists as a pyramid. Very many things know nothing, but only one knows everything. To climb the pyramid isn't difficult, up to some point. The climb can be a taxing thing; the climb can deteriorate the mind and render knowledge worthless. Because, you see, knowledge can't replace everything. Amelia Wakefield took the climb by personal invitation. She met every obstacle the universe could come up with, but knowledge is too powerful. Curiosity is too powerful. The New York editor once abducted by aliens now finds herself at the controls. The New York editor once blind of mind now finds herself aware of the many things she can know. Curiosity drove her by the neck, and dragged her like a noose to the very near top of the pyramid. Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought her back

Akeldama | lrh by PsychxticHemmings

"With the reward he got for his wickedness, Judas bought a field; there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out. Everyone in Jerusalem heard about this, so they called that field in their language Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood." Acts 1:18-19 ••• The year is 2100. North America and Asia are at war. After an unknown source pisses off the newly acquired leaders, Asian military forces release their biggest weapons on the opposing continent with absolutely no mercy: 6 one hundred megaton nuclear bombs. 90% of the population is destroyed. The only ones to survive are those on the outskirts: the small ring-like areas blown apart but unaffected by the radiation. One of those people is Alexandra Blake. Bruised and desperate, she must fight her way through the wreckage to find her family. She meets several others along the way, including a scarred, beautiful boy named Luke and his clan of warriors. But as tensions rise, the death toll does too, and it becomes clear that her family is the least of Alex's problems. There's something bigger going on, something massive, somehow involving Luke and the soldiers he leads. Tangled up in the mess, there's nothing she can do but sit back and watch it all unfold. 2016 @ psychxtichemmings

Hellfire Jones and the Angel Invasion by JMMCNEELY

Humanity is right in the middle of an epic battle between heaven and hell. Standing on the sidelines are the laziest man on earth and the President of the United States who just might be the savior, the antichrist or both. Personally, I think we're all doomed. ------------------------------------------------------- This is my first attempt at the Open Novella Contest where you choose a prompt and write a novella. The prompt I chose: "Heaven and Hell collide once again. The War Demons march to meet the Battle Angels in a struggle for dominance over the Human Realm." I almost chose the prompt which involved taking a cow for a walk, but come on. Battle Angels! Heck yeah. Moo!

Life After Death And The Heavens Beyond Model by YousufTahirAli

My work is published under category "Physics and Astronomy" by "Lambert Academic Publishers", but its for the general population as well to read! My work is purely scientific and is based on facts. It is, in short, a sequel to the books of Stephen Hawking namely "A brief History of time" and "Black Holes And Baby Universes", and also a sequel to Albert Einstein's "theory of relativity". It offers a new understanding of time, a way never taken before. It is a piece of literature that combines various pieces of literatures on a single platform, for instance, it brings the "spiritual, islamic, physics, biology, information technology, and scientific reasoning" literatures on a single platform. This is some extraordinary work and it took me two years to complete the thinking and finally give it a written shape. Since this piece of work brings various pieces of literature on a single platform, a lot of literatures can intermingle on a single platform for the first time! See! This is a noble extraordinary work in literature. It might even win the "noble prize in literature"! I feel that this is going to have a lot of sales as well and since its extremely short (around 14,000 words and in 42 pages only) and mentions to the point theories and science, the people will eventually love it! Its written in extremely simple language so that the people may understand with ease. NOTE:- My book will be launched in 2 weeks. So I wish to send the pdf copy of my book. The book is attached with this mail. I just want a honest review, be it good or be it bad. :D
