Everybody dreams of time travel. The possibilities would be endless: from going to the future to see what things are going to be like, over going to the past to see what things were like, all the way to telling yourself not to eat the last cookie in the cookie jar, because you will crave for it later. But what if you couldn't choose where you go? Or rather, when you go? And what would be the consequences for people around you, who are trying to get their hands on a precious artefact? Isaac, Keymard and Pierce will know all about it...even though they can only dream of never knowing.Creative Commons (CC) Attribution

HalfWorlder #Wattys2017 by HerringAli

(Highest rank #12 in sci-fi). When a dangerous ancient artifact hidden by the Egyptian gods activates after millennia, the long-dormant powers of a half-alien boy come alive just in time to save the Earth. But he never imagined winning over a girl would be harder than saving the world. And he may not even do that. THE LONG VERSION: Human life was hard enough for 17-year-old Gil Scott when his father suddenly disappeared from a temple dig. But when the half-alien teen uncovers a conspiracy surrounding the artifact his human dad was hunting, Gil must use his alien powers to track it down before it destroys the planet he calls home. With the help of a beautiful Oasen-human hybrid whose drive to succeed masks her private pain, Gil borrows his mom's spaceship, following the same clues across Egypt as his father. The teens battle strange weather phenomena and rising global panic as they race through the suffocating heat of the desert, through deluged ancient temples, and hidden libraries hiding more than just books. That is until it starts snowing on the Great Sphinx and they unearth a millennial-old message from Ra himself, addressed to Gil, with a choice that will affect everyone's future. Unraveling Ra's remaining clues, they rush to locate the powerful artifact in time. But Ra and the other ancient aliens' thousands-year-old, carefully mapped plan to save the Earth from the Aten has a fatal flaw, and their gamble may cost Gil the only life that will matter to him in the end. And possibly the planet itself. (Cover image: Photo of The Pyramids of Giza from Egypt combined with a Hubble image. Original photographer: Rom Srinivasan, 2005)

Days of Darkness: Awakening by TheDarkKnight_84

What happens when parallel universes collide? When a portal opens up in the middle of the city, it unleashes a reign of terror unlike anything that anyone has ever known. With the world's military forces unable to contain the problem, the world is plunged into darkness with Chicago as ground zero. Over the course of two years, the human race has been driven underground and lives in constant fear. Resources are scarce and time is running out for the planet. Among those people, is Damien, who, because of the invasion, was orphaned at eighteen years old and forced to learn to fight to survive. Together, with his friend, Christian, he stumbles upon a group of people who have dedicated their lives to fighting the invading forces. After a close encounter with the Nightstalkers, a race of reptilian-like creatures, Damien's world is, once again, turned upside-down as strange things start to happen to him. Soon, he comes to realize that he is more connected to this threat than he could have ever imagined. And when the true threat reveals himself and his power, it becomes clear that the fate of the entire planet could be decided in an instant. Can he be stopped in time or will the world remain in eternal darkness???

Wicked Prompts by night-writer2073

This is a collection of short-stories and flash-fiction. Each narrative is complete and independent, and can be read in any order. Although varying in length, they are all relatively short, to present a quick and fun read, while you're on the go. Each one presents a view, theme, or idea to entertain as well as provoke your imagination and critical thinking. The characters are varied and as confused about the ever evolving modern world as the rest of us. They include tales of cyborgs, alien worlds, alternate futures, supernatural transformations, and the spiritual crises and transitions new technologies will demand of our soul. The characters include space nomads, time-traveling detectives, artificial consciousness, and ordinary people grappling with rapid and uncontrollable change. Hope you enjoy!

Mirror Sky. Part 1 - Blissful Nemesis by pwkos171

The future is predetermined. It can't be changed. But who casts the future in stone? It's you, me, and every one of us. The iron grip of our fate doesn't come from gods or physics but from us. You are oppressed by your future self to walk the one and only road. Knowing the future changes nothing - this knowledge has already been written into your fate. Time travel is meaningless for the same reason - all your meddlings had also become a part of your fate before you even embarked on your journey through time. Could this strange duality of free will and fate be challenged? If so, what would it take? How far are you willing to go to change your dark fate? Is the risk of erasing the universe from existence worth your brighter future?

When four adopted brothers reunite after years apart to mourn the passing of a beloved family member, they expect a tense but bittersweet gathering. However, what begins as a solemn occasion quickly takes a surreal turn. Each brother, now an adult with his own life, has unknowingly been woven into a destiny far beyond anything they could have imagined. The unexpected inheritance they receive is not of wealth, but of power-and responsibility. Bound by a force that predates time itself, they are tasked with protecting the fragile fabric of reality from a hidden and ancient threat. Together, they must confront not only supernatural dangers but also the ghosts of their own past, rivalries, and unresolved wounds. As they navigate a world of secret realms and cosmic dangers, the brothers realize that only by uniting their unique gifts and rekindling their family bond can they hope to succeed in their mission. But will they be able to overcome their differences in time? Or will their fractured brotherhood be the very thing that unravels reality as they know it?

Her memory was taken. Her skills were not. Her very presence is a threat to everything he has ever cared for. They might make a powerful team... if they don't kill each other first. Once upon a time... In a land where the most powerful can be killed by water, the elite are protected by shape-shifting dragons, and the world is divided into two continents of chaos and false order, a strange girl wakes with broken ribs, three bullet holes in her chest, and a wiped memory, on the front lawn of a manor belonging to an Emperor whose reign is nearing its end. With no knowledge of who she is, the girl is determined to find answers. But everyone is either tightlipped or seemingly afraid of her very existence. When an unknown traitor attempts to assassinate the Emperor right under everyone's noses, the girl finds herself thrown into a world of monsters, magic, peril, and responsibility. But one mistake with the Emperor's formidable Guardian could destroy everything. [Completed] Highest Ranking: #1 in teenfiction #2 in science-fantasy

The Pickpocket by pleasantly_wholocked

My name is Jamie Hattchet. I'm fourteen years old and a trained actor/pickpocket. My life was pretty normal until I found the pocket watch. After that everything sort of spiralled out of control and my dad and I were flung through the pages of history (and the future), meeting all sorts of people; friends, foes, celebrities and things. All we wanted to do was to get back to our normal lives, to perhaps start afresh. I could do school and Dad could get a proper job, stop killing people for once. No such luck. Time is a harsh mistress. My name is Jamie Hatchett and this is my story.

When her friends arrive, she shares the story with them, and they end up going on the adventure of a lifetime. So join Clara, Amy, Philip, Jamie and Sara as they travel back in time, to the 1800s.
