The Air Out Of [Wattys2018 shortlist]
*wattys 2018 shortlist* *writer's awards sci-fi winner* It all started with an accident. Through vast consolidation begets a single empire bordering on the mere idea of war with an enemy threatening to destroy its entire existence, starting from the inside. Many call it tyranny, others, vengeful menace, but it's taking them down. One by one. A series of events follow, including a spy, a plan destined to fail and a desperate offer that puts everything on the line. She wasn't what they were hoping for. But they take what they can get. Once rejected by the place they called home, five estranged teens jump at the opportunity for an escape. Thrust into an unknown underwater society at random, it's a gamble for life and death, win or lose. Fast forward to friendship, rivalry, loyalty, borderline sorcery, and a second home that'll change their lives as they know it. But as the days grow by, and the game of cat and mouse breaks its final straw, blending in a world not meant for them is not as easy as it seems. Especially when you try to save a colony whilst saving yourself. *this story is/will be rewriting.

Princess and Trouble (girlxgirl)
Two girls, two different walks of life, one love story. Dakota Springson was a princess. Not an actual princess, but you know the type. Rich parents, good looks, got everything she wanted when she wanted it. Everything she did she was good at: sports, school work, music. There was nothing she couldn't do. Everyone wanted to be her. And she knew it. Alex Brown's middle name was trouble. Not really, but you know the type. Tragic backstory, criminal record and bad temper. It was the combination which screamed 'stay away' and everyone did. She did drugs, got into fights and never paid attention in class. The only reason her enrolment hadn't been terminated was because even the principal was afraid of her. The pair come from completely different walks of life. But what happens when Trouble meets the Princess? This is girlxgirl. If you don't like that kinda thing, then please don't read it.
