In a world where people are born with their names in a book for telling what they will do with their lives, the government runs a tight ship. At every birth, someone is there with a bastardized version of the Future Picture. Once a name is decided upon, the agent finds out what they will do with their lives. If the child will kill anyone, they are put down. If they will have a serious addiction, they are killed. If they betray the country, they are killed. If they become a minor criminal, they are taken from their parents and placed in a special jail that will keep them alive until they turn 21, and get a new name. A set of fraternal twins are born, one will become a doctor with healing hands, the other will have sticky ones. What happens when the twins are confused for each other, and the older ones locked away, while the younger remains with his parents? How will destiny be changed if they aren't given a chance? How will the older twin's life be altered when he is given a chance later in life to help bring the world back to a more relaxed government, instead of a tightly monitored hell? Will he, a healer, be able to destroy the government before it takes anymore lives, or is he playing into someone's hands without even knowing it?

A Beastman Story by Froggy76
2 parts Complete Mature
How would you feel if you found yourself in a different place with no memory of how you got there? Well that happened to me and this is my story. Hi, My name is Genisis and I am 23 years old, I was walking from my car into my house and..... well that is the last thing I remember before finding myself in a huge forest. Dang, I am so lost, the only things I had on me were the clothes I had on and my duffle bag with my emergency stuff, you know like extra clothes, a flashlight, some granola bars, four or five water bottles and an emergency kit with bandaids, alcohol wipes, antibacterial gel, and that antibiotic ointment. Oh yeah and my purse, that had my phone!! With no signal, and 911 not working, Just freaking GREAT! Read on to find out what happens Thanks for giving me your time and thoughts. Oh and I got inspiration from the beauty and the beasts stories but the characters and plot are my own, I love the idea of the Beastman stories and decided to do a fanfic with my own characters and plot. Any pictures are from my own collection. Thanks for reading froggy friends! Also updates will be sporadic and I apologize for that right now, thanks for reading! All pictures are from coloring apps, they were colored by me but they belong to the coloring apps they came from. Also I am editing and writing all at once but fair warning there will be mistakes and I will do my very best to correct them, Plot holes, spelling and grammar mistakes abound but it is only the third book I have ever written so please give me mercy and enjoy! This is a very fast paced romance reverse harem, I also purposely did not give character descriptions , I wanted the reader to imagine my characters however the wanted. I hope everyone enjoys my take on the beastworld.

Welcome to the future, written in the past. A mutant plague has rendered part of the population as zombie-like humanoids. They have a conscious mind though, but their craving for brains is a bit of an antisocial issue. Being mostly made up of impoverished individuals, it is not surprised that they got cured cheaply and lastly, despite being the main test subjects. Lochlyn is their representative. She just wanted an education beyond elementary school. A little luckier stricken part of the infected population evolved into reverents. Reverants have a feudal system over the zombies to "keep them in order". The luck may have had to do with them being upper-class when being treated. Basilica is their representative. At eighteen, she wanted body modifications, a job, and etc... as a rite of passage entering adulthood. At least that's what she was thinking. The more she was told no, the more she wondered what she could do. There are still uninfected humans left in the U.S.A. Most of them are middle-class. Katrina is their representative. She gained a family member, but lost two. She aches to find out why she can never return home again. The three eighteen-year-old females, along with their beaus, journey for truth, equality, justice, restoration, love, and freedom lead them to the same end: the capital.

Exile: The Book of Ever by JamesCormier
30 parts Complete
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.
