One girl. 
Two cities. 
Three social classes.
And a chance to rise up to the government that knocked them down. 
 
* * *


217 years after the Third World War, society is now divided into two social classes: the ARLITES, people of the Upper City, and the HUMANES, people of the Lower City. A state's military and government is depended upon its wealthier population, while the lesser privileged are stripped of their rights, forced to survive on their own. 

Just months before the new Californian General will be elected, its current leader, Aaron Lane, bids his last farewell to the Humanes. A notorious group, the Arlites Assassins Society, attempts to put a bullet right through his head. Their plan backfired on them, when a seventeen-year-old Humane girl, Kalista Young, puts herself between the General and the bullet. 

Truths and conspiracies are unraveled one by one. Kalista discovers her true identity and power, a power that was thought to have died with its instigators, the ELEGIANS. She discovers what truly happened during the Third World War. She also discovers the reason behind the creation of the two cities, and why it was so important.

As each second passes by, her efforts to find the perpetrators of the assassination is slowly becoming a wild goose chase. Alongside the General's two sons, she continues to gather information about their state's history, about the Elegians, about the Assassins, and everyone involved with them.

With the knowledge in hand, Kalista is starting to think that she can never truly trust anyone but herself.

"I'm not sure, maybe." I said smiling, revealing my upper teeth, pretending I was enjoying the company, meanwhile waiting to get the hell out of here. "We have," I heard him say. "At the club, Antonio's." Antonio's rang a bell, I had a short flashback and tried to remember when I'd met number 23, sorry, I meant Aaron or whatsoever dad had called his name. "Your body is like that of a Greek god." He said chuckling, tilted his head and raised an eyebrow looking at me like I was supposed to understand whatsoever the fuck he was saying. "Your body is like a what?" I repeated, and that was when it came to me in a flash, "oh my God."

Forever Fighting | ✔️ | [previously Espionage: double-cross] by WinterWillow901

Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing. [previously known as Espionage: double-cross] Thanks for reading :)

Powerful Boy. (English) by MonoTieso

The past is a cruel dictator of our future and pain is just one more emotion that hurts us all. Aaron opens his swollen eyes once again after the tenth night in which he has not stopped crying and suffering, something so common among us that I even feel sorry for him. Yet that creeping pain and confusion is just the tip of the iceberg that is about to sink your life even further, if that's possible. The real reason for his cruel present is hidden in the blurry memories of his past, which he must uncover without the help of anyone. After the last stab in his back decided not to heal, he realized only one thing. You can not trust anyone. Not even in yourself, for a traitor can come from anywhere. It will be difficult for him to achieve the peace and normal life that he longs for so much, but one thing is certain, he will not rest until he frees his wrists from the chains that bind him ... or from whoever ties him cruelly ... When he believed that he had finally managed to clear up the doubts of his past and that his life could finally take a correct path, as if the writer of his life was playing selflessly with words, the greatest of his secrets came to light. Will he be able to meet his own expectations, or will he only destroy himself by trying? "Power or Will, you decide" He ... He chose both. - #21 in Science, 20/08/2021 - #01 in NewHistory, 20/08/2021 - #65 in Can, 03/09/2021 - #49 in Lifetime, 03/09/2021
