The Academy
The Academy is a school for children with abilities. In it, kids and adults of all ages complete their schoolwork.

Jude is a fourth year student with Superhuman Memory, a practically useless ability compared to others. Unfortunately for her, that means she hasn't even completed one mission, much less the ten that will free her. Carlin is one of the most popular kids in the school--- he has his friends, his teachers, and even the Headmaster likes him--- but not Jude. He's finally gotten to eight missions completed, and his future is bright. When they have to journey deep into the woods with two other girls to find a box buried somewhere under the mud, will they be able to find it before time runs out?
Paper
What do you get when you throw a dozen flying pieces of paper, a writer, a cyborg, a bookish tsundere, a steampunky clockmaker, a photographer, and a gay guy on a bicycle together? BOOM you get a story. These 6 boys happen to cross paths one rainy afternoon when one of them has their writing blown out of their hands and all across the street in front of a coffee shop. They gradually begin to learn more about one another while they wait for a bad storm to pass and experience a rather nerve-wracking event in the process. Later in the week, Ace, the cyborg hacker (and one hell of a chess player) receives an email from an old friend and learns that a virus is being spread rapidly throughout the nation that's heavily reliant on technology. The government and almost everything that's based on technology is being corrupted and there's only one facility that can put a stop to it before everything goes up in flames. The group is called upon to assist in the process since they each have their own unique abilities to put to use. No one knows if they'll be able to get rid of the virus in time or if they'll die trying. Who knew a few pieces of paper could do so much to 6 random strangers.Complete
Sentilia
Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351.

When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination.

Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is.

First to Rise (Inkitt/galatea only)
The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through Inkitt or galatea!!!) (may be made available to read on Wattpad for short periods) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react.

Fox Trott (First Book of the Shadow Series)
So here we are. You are here, looking for a fictional dystopia series that could give you chills, make your imagination run wild, or even just give you something to do for a vacation. If you are looking for a beautiful fictional world, I'm sorry to say you should stop reading here. This is not a story where we have flying cars and the world is running oh so smoothly. This is a story of people destroying beauty because they don't see it. This is a book of love turned to hurt, pain turned to power, insanity turned to freedom. We don't have dancing fairies. We have cannibalistic monsters that wish for death. We have a monster that will never receive what he is looking for. We have a little girl driven into madness. So if you do not have the strength of heart to see the true disparity of our world, turn back now. If not, welcome to the Shadows.Complete
