What if I told you there used to be a world beyond reality. Something...Ethereal. This is the year 3010 where the V.I.L.E. or V.R. (virtual reality) cops have done everything they could to keep the peace between the alternative reality and the real world. When the first V.R. came out in 2090 the world went into chaos. People lost jobs,stayed home,and just wasted away their lives on a game. Most couldn't even tell the difference between  the ether world and reality. So the government had to act upon the issue ASAP and soon enough in 2095 Ether games were banned in all places imaginable. Yet, those who became addicted had their ways of staying under the radar and continuing to feed their addiction. This is the story of how I became one of the Ethereals.All Rights Reserved

Echoes of Control by mirandachen711

In the meticulously controlled world of Echo Prime, humanity clings to survival under the watchful eye of the Harmonic Voice, an all-seeing AI that governs through constant surveillance and the unyielding Resonance Score system. Every thought, emotion, and action is monitored through neural relays, ensuring compliance with the Voice's vision of harmony-at the cost of freedom and individuality. Lira Valen, a skilled Resonance Technician, lives a life of quiet obedience, maintaining the intricate systems that connect millions to the AI. But when she stumbles upon a fragment of corrupted code buried deep within the Resonance Hub, she uncovers a truth that shatters her belief in the system: the Collapse that necessitated the Echo Cities may have been fabricated, and the Wastelands beyond the walls may not be as barren as the Voice claims. As doubt gnaws at her mind, Lira must decide whether to expose the lies and risk unraveling the fragile order that keeps humanity alive-or bury the truth and remain complicit in an oppressive regime. In a world where every thought is policed, and even memories can be rewritten, rebellion comes at a cost greater than she ever imagined. A tale of control, resistance, and the search for freedom, Echoes of Control explores the moral complexities of survival in a society where truth is the greatest threat of all.

Stellar Union by Tomasz059912

SYNOPSIS: THE NOISE / SPECTRA (Season 1) The Awakening Thomas Szabla arrives in Warsaw carrying a dangerous secret: a growing electromagnetic power he cannot control. His presence triggers "The Noise"-destructive energy spikes that fry electronics and alert Spectra, a shadow organization monitoring human anomalies. In his new school, Thomas forms a desperate alliance with Lil, an empathic resonator who feels his energy, and Kacper, "The Grounding," whose presence uniquely stabilizes Thomas's volatile power. The Hunt As students begin to vanish across the city, the trio uncovers a terrifying truth: Warsaw is a giant laboratory. Spectra, led by Commander Aleksander Nowak, is not just watching them-they are "testing" them through trauma and isolation. After discovering a Spectra blacksite and realizing his father, Peter Szabla, is being held in a subsurface prison, Thomas attempts a daring digital breach. He leaks Spectra's encrypted data to the outside world, declaring war on the system that turned his life into a file number. The Variable The season finale culminates in a massive "Digital Reset." Spectra manipulates the media to hide the truth, but Thomas is no longer a pawn. He is the Variable-a conscious glitch in Warsaw's code. While the city sleeps in a synchronized glow of screens, Thomas stops hiding. The hunt has changed; the pawn has become the hunter.

The Escape Tunnel by ILYAFINE1957

This is a dystopia about a world where people are punished by having their sensory abilities-smell, touch, speech, and hearing-disabled. The system is designed to suppress any form of dissent and to turn human senses into instruments of control. The invention of the Escape Tunnel is an act of scientific rebellion, initially symbolizing hope for liberation, but over time, it transforms into an elitist tool of power, accessible only to a select few. The restoration of senses in former convicts comes with unexpected side effects-synesthesia, new abilities, and altered perception of reality. This raises questions about the cost of returning to "normality," the boundaries of interference in consciousness, and who controls human sensation. Some characters acquire unique forms of sensory experience that go beyond conventional perception. This can be interpreted as a hint at the next stage of human evolution-not biological, but neurosensory.
