During the year 2050, a thirteen year old boy named Gordon is a 8th grader at Redwood Middle School. He is a caring kid, who has a hard time keeping friends, due to the inability to differentiate between things to say to others, and what to keep to himself. He finds the world of virtual reality as an escape from life, as a way to let go of all of his fears. However his few lasting friends and parents get worried when his attitude towards the game gets dependent on the need to escape reality, rather than the game being a fun past time.

Welcome to a world where pixels are the new reality, and the metaverse is king. Meet Alex, a tech-savvy misfit with a rebellious spirit, who stumbles upon a hidden secret that could shatter the digital illusion. It all starts innocently enough with a glitch in the code, a whisper of something amiss in the flawless façade of their virtual existence.

Joined by a diverse crew of fellow hackers, gamers, and digital outlaws, they embark on an electrifying quest to pierce the veil of the virtual world. Along the way, they'll encounter enigmatic AIs, navigate treacherous dungeons, and unearth cryptic messages left by a shadowy figure known only as "The Architect." As the lines between their augmented reality and the tangible one blur, they must confront a stark reality: some secrets are better left buried in the code. The future of humanity hangs in the balance, and the clock is ticking.

Will they unveil the ultimate truth, or will the digital realm consume them before they can break free? One thing's for sure: The revolution begins here."Complete
Until Dawn
Fourteen-year-old Jacob Green isn't your average guy. Not crazy about dating, not highly into going to the gym and lifting heavy weights. He's more like that person on the sideline that never gets noticed. When his friends begin to grow distant, he must find a way to push through his shattering life, and try to focus on his grades and the other things that matter. But there's one problem. His world is slowly collapsing, as he finds he has certain powers, and has to conceal them from prying eyes. (NOTE: This story is based in the same universe as the story "Elenore", by @Pandaslayer00.

Cosmic
In an alternate timeline, the human race found a way to create superpowers. By extracting energy from stars and inserting that energy into humans, 'powers' were created. Powers allowed humans to gain unnatural abilities such as flight, invisibility, super strength or in other words, superpowers. Of course, with the introduction of something so revolutionary, people rose up in the hundreds of thousands in an event known as the Great Rebellion. The insurgents banded together under a single banner and became collectively known as the Shadow, marking the beginning of the Cosmic Wars. Out of the darkness, the Gazers were born. Using what remained of the power technology, the Gazers singlehandedly perished the evil and ended the conflict. However, there was a price to pay. Powers put a toll on the human body and had serious mental and physical repercussions. The solution was to recruit children from the age of 13 to 18 and train them so their bodies would adapt to their powers, eventually becoming immune to all negative side effects. The end of the Cosmic Wars brought forth a new age of peace and prosperity that the world had never seen before. However, the long reign of the Gazers has already begun to crumble, cracks showing up within the very thread of society. Their rule will not last for much longer. The Shadow will rise once again. Or in other words, my unintentional and accidental ripoff of My Hero Academia :/ Blurb is a work in progressComplete
