Whatever It Takes (A Veronica Mars Fanfiction) by WritinSinsNTragedies

Veronica had seen countless victims; men, women, children. Some of them had been found in the most horrific states imaginable; some of them still haunted her dreams. But they were strangers, people she had never known - or in this case hated. But no one deserved to suffer like this. Not even Shelly Pomroy. Eight women have been raped and strangled, their bodies dumped on beaches along the California coast. Veronica is sent back to her home town of Neptune to find the person responsible. It has been nine years since she left Neptune, leaving a trail of destruction in her wake. With her return, Veronica has every intention of avoiding anyone that is connected to her old life - even her own father. But when her investigation leads her straight back to Logan Echolls she knows it won't be as easy as pretending they don't exist. ---------- As the summary states, my story follows Veronica as an agent in the FBI. Now I know there is a lot of argument about Veronica's character and how she would never really work at the FBI because she doesn't follow the rules, but in my mind, a lot can happen in nine years and for my story, she has learned some hard lessons. This is a 'LoVe' story because there is no other option for these two but each other. I will put a warning here that this story will contain graphic depictions of rape. I will leave a note at the top of chapters that contain those parts so that you do have a warning, but this is just an overall warning in case you are uncomfortable with that. But enough about that, enjoy the ride.

Ghosts in Static by avsauthor

"Everyone he cared about was gone-stolen by a city that chased the dead." Detective Jonah Cole wakes up a blank slate in the city of Veridian. His memory is wiped clean, and Nadia Vega, the partner he can't remember, is his only guide into a conspiracy that runs deeper than his own missing past. Their target: Silas Vale, the city's techno-messiah, whose company MemGen sold the world the MemChip-the power to add, delete, and rewrite a life. Vale's digital church, Omega, promises salvation by tithing memories. But the truth is a nightmare of consciousness hacks, killings, and ghostly bleed-throughs that refuse to be silenced. To reclaim his identity, Cole must break the church of memory that runs his city. But in a world built on editable lives, the thing calling itself salvation will fight like hell to keep its saints. Teaser: "They're always with you, Jonah. Just like me. None of us are ghosts. Just different forms of energy fighting to exist."

Serial Hearts by 0authorunknown0

In a world where reality is programmed and freedom is just a line of code, Nova Kade was never meant to exist. Branded with a serial number and confined to District 7, she begins to see things no one else can - flickers in the air, glitches in time, and a voice whispering that the world isn't real. When she unlocks a hidden file buried deep in the Dominion system, Nova becomes a target. Labeled an anomaly. Hunted by the same government that designed her world. But she's not alone. Jace Reign - an ex-Enforcer with a past full of shadows - has been watching her. Waiting. Protecting her from the inside. Together, they run. From the system. From their pasts. From a secret society that controls everything through a virtual illusion called V1SION. But rebellion isn't just survival. It's falling in love where love is forbidden. And it's choosing to fight when the whole world wants you erased.

The Missing Pattern by KamourWryte

FBI Special Agent Kitty Harper thought she was investigating a simple missing persons case-until the disappearances of teenage girls across California start to overlap in unsettling ways. What begins as a routine investigation quickly spirals into a chilling discovery: a hidden, deadly network trafficking vulnerable teens with ruthless precision. To stop the tide of innocent lives being stolen, Kitty must uncover the twisted pattern linking each case-before more girls vanish without a trace. Haunted by her past and driven by a thirst for justice, Kitty's pursuit of these monsters forces her into a dangerous alliance with her partner, Calvin-whose proximity stirs feelings she can't afford to indulge. As the line between justice and vengeance blurs, Kitty finds herself battling not only the criminals but the darkness threatening to consume her from within. With each step closer to the truth, the stakes grow higher. Kitty must ask herself how far she's willing to go to bring these predators to justice-knowing that the cost could be her mind, her soul, or even her life. In a world where every move could be her last, Kitty faces the ultimate question: can she stay in control long enough to save the missing, or will she too fall victim to the shadows? The clock is ticking. The darkness is closing in. And only one thing is certain: the hunt for justice will push Kitty to the very edge of sanity.

Her most lethal weapon is herself . . . • • • Agent Eleven was always a loyal Agent for the Division. Until she wasn't.

Forced to join the elite team of Operatives and their domineering leader with a knack for watching her too closely, she has to tread lightly to finish what she started. Because little do the team know, they weren't the masterminds behind her return. And she isn't leaving again until she finds out the truth about what happened a year ago, and keep her identity a secret while she's at it. With a too hot for his own good leader, his best friend who seems to see too much and two seemingly innocent operatives by her side, will Agent Eleven uncover the truth? And what will she do once she realises she's captured the attention of the very serial killer her team is assigned to hunt? This plan might just be her stupidest yet, and it might just be the one that's gets her killed. • • • I watch from the corner of my eyes as he brings the dagger up to the straps of my top, slipping it under the thin fabric. "There's just a few things in my way." He hushes, dark eyes hooded.

Ember Manchester has it all. She's beautiful, she's rolling in money, and she has a job that she loves. Ember is one of the most renowned computer hackers in the world: respected, sought out by clients across the globe, and the absolute best at what she does. But she wants more, so when she's hired by a mysterious client for a job unlike any other, she springs at the chance. She's been tasked with a near impossible job: hack into a secure government agency, take down their firewall, and steal all of their money. After a job well done, her mysterious client reveals himself as Rylan Ford: a smug, arrogant, and oh so handsome man who simultaneously draws her in and gets under her skin. He reveals that she was hired as a test of her abilities. Wanting to see if she was as good as her reputation suggests, Ember passed his test with flying colors. He then offers her a job: he needs her help running a firm of hackers that take jobs all across the world. Initially reluctant to take the job, Ember finally agrees. Everything is going well until an old associate of hers materializes out of the past, blackmailing her for money and threatening her life. Unknown to Ember, however, Rylan also harbors a dark past, and his demons are much worse than Ember's. Meanwhile, Ember finds herself falling in love with Rylan, who underneath his smug exterior is not much different than herself. When both of their dark pasts threaten to reveal themselves, will their relationship survive? And more importantly, will they?
