It is rumored that in the waning days of summer in 1993, famed Oceanic explorer Pierre Lamont visited the California side of the Sierra Mountains for the purpose of assisting the United States Geographical Administration in their quest to finally map the bottom of Lake Tahoe.
During Lamont's first and only dive, attempting 1,000 feet beneath the surface in his famed submersible "Midas", all communications were lost for approximately 30 minutes.
When a visibly shaken Lamont surfaced, he greeted his support staff with silence, immediately canceled all further dives and retreated to his hotel room alone.
When asked repeatedly about what happened to him below the freezing blue of Tahoe he finally stated simply; "The world isn't ready for what's at the bottom of that lake."
No video or data from his lone dive was ever released.All Rights Reserved

Hell's Earth Part 1: Hell Come by ZomRotic

The bones in her body were breaking and bending joint by joint. Her muscles were tensing, bending and twisting. As she continued to convulse on the cold metal slab, the restraints around her wrists, ankles and even the retainer in her mouth caused her ever increasing pain as they began to cut into her inch by inch with every seizure like convulsion that tore through her. Tears streamed down her face as her just audible groans squeaked from her throat. She could only make out the dark ominous figure as it continued to inject the serum into her heart. Her breathing became so erratic that it caused her to lose conscience but only for seconds at a time. She could feel new appendages growing from her head and back. Even her tail bone was bending and snaking its way from her body and protruding from her posterior. Her teeth began to change shape and length as her jaw reshaped its self to form around the new arrivals. Unfortunately, this was only the beginning... Trina was a devout Christian and history buff. She had gained fame and a small fortune from her discoveries. However, she wanted nothing more than to prove that Heaven and Hell did exist and was willing to get the evidence anyway she could. She had no idea what she was about to release upon herself or the world... Vincent was a brilliant detective in solving histories greatest mysteries from the empty honey comb tombs of Bohol to the recently discovered city of Atlantis.

The Lovely Paradox by dearchay

❝If you knew that your soulmate were standing right in front of you, and that no one would make your heart beat the same way, you would understand why I'm fighting as hard as I am to keep you.❞ *********** All Amara Valencia wanted was to build her life on her own terms, not the preplanned version her family had for her. At the tender age of 18, despite the vice grip her older sister held, she broke free to build a means for herself. Determined, and strong-willed, she felt that with this newfound freedom the world was her oyster. All expectations came crashing down when a brief encounter with an alluring stranger created a whirlwind. Although she's unable to deny the seemingly magnetic connection, something screams inside her to run. Suddenly, her life became tangled into a world that she never knew existed, and finds herself with more than she bargained for. ©DEARCHAY #51 | #FantasyCreatures | 10/18/2024 #65 | #DarkFantasy | 12/8/2024 #10 | #Filipino | 6/2/2022 #8 | #Asian | 9/8/2024

My Deceiving Eyes by tinaheartz

In 2239, added as an ingredient for rat poison, a disease began to spread rapidly through the air. Decaying the bones it attaches to, inflicting paralysis and organ failure while its victims remain conscious enough to feel the pain that follow. Two years later, a vengeful ex-scientist released another sickness. Those who were infected suffered severe symptoms that would alter them into aggressive and animalistic creatures. These two illnesses quickly combined, causing a huge outbreak across the world and Wiping out almost 64% of the human's population. They called this contagious and infectious disease, "the Bliss." Eleven years later, after hundreds of failed trials, the Serpent department has created a solution: children who are immune to the disease. Raised within the boundless white laboratory walls, Adrian Bordeleau is cruelly exploited to develop a cure. As he grow up, a voice began to eat away at his soul. Gradually making him question what is keeping him from breaking out of the facility and destroy everything and everyone who dared to deceive him. Once you get a taste of power, you can't go back - My Deceiving Eyes is heavily inspired by the song Brutus by Buttress. As well as the Flare from Maze Runner, Deep Root disease from Gemini Home Entertainment, and the Grimace shake incident. [SECOND DRAFT]

Species Unknown [Book 2: Pisces) by fantasynote

*MERMAN ROMANCE* Moving from the warm beaches of Oahu to the rocky shores of Monterey, California was supposed to be a fresh start for college graduate Leilani Ono. However, as she starts working for the esteemed genetics laboratory hidden along the chilly California coast, she realizes that her attempt at escaping her past has actually thrown her deep into a web of convoluted lies, mad scientists, and the horrors of human experimentation. ~*~ Gripped with panic, I turned away only to come face to face with the very thing I tried to run from. I gasped, stumbling back. Its face was shadowed, but I could still see the outline of its features. Illuminated by the reflection of the stars, I could see the sharp jawline and steely eyes that regarded me. A face that, even in the dark of night, was distinctly masculine. "Why are you here." A chilling voice seethed from the shadows. It was as cold as the night around us, with a slight hiss that was threatening enough to send my heart racing even faster. ~*~ #1 in EXPERIMENT #1 in MERPEOPLE #1 in BEAUTY AND THE BEAST #1 in OCEAN The second book in the Species Unknown series. Can easily be read as a stand-alone novel but I recommend reading Book 1: Aves first for more context. *COMPLETED*

COUNTDOWN: Enchanted to meet you by Blurose_24

What would you do if you had just 24 hours left to live? Julie had a Checklist. A checklist for all the things she wanted to do before she finally passed away and she had just one day to check everything on that list. Not too hard if you asked me, unless Jason Tyler was in the equation and she had to spend the rest of the day with him instead. *** "Good, first question, what's with the check list and countdown? Are you going somewhere?" "You opened the book!!?" I exclaimed anger surging through every part of me. Is he that unmannered not to know that you are not suppose to read other people's private stuff. "No? I just happen to notice when you opened it." "That's bullshit!!" At this I tried to grab the book from his hand as fast as I could. I was really close, my hand touched it but before I could pull it, he dodged causing me to slip over and land right into the fountain. The water was really cold and I could feel it through my jeans and jacket because they were now soaking wet. And so was the white T- shirt I was wearing. I think I've found my bad luck charm, it's white shirts. I was dumb folded for a while as I looked down at myself and noticed how much my wet clothes were sticking to my skin and how clear my pink bra was through the wet shirt. I can't believe my luck today. What sin did I ever commit to the universe? "Holy shit" I heard Jason utter and that's when I remembered his presence and the reason why I was in this situation now. "I hate you so much Jason Tyler" FULL BOOK COMING ON 1ST JULY Copyright © 2022
