Something is looming over the city of Perinslaith; attacking radiowaves, attacking the very fabric of what it means to exist. 
What it means to live and to die.

In a dark and industrialized vision of the near future, the opening of a tear in the fabric of the universe threatens the survival of everyone and everything.  It will be those born on the boundaries and on the edges who will be charged with making the choices that could see the downfall or the saviour of the fragile world in which they subside.  
Yet; with minds as fragile as the bonds which keep the city from falling, remaining whole could prove just as difficult as saving their fragmenting world before it flickers out completely.All Rights Reserved

Terra's Primal War's [Arknights x OC's] by azma15842

The world of Terra has long endured its suffering-wars unending, nations fractured, and the slow, merciless advance of Oripathy. For centuries, mankind has struggled merely to survive, clutching to what little stability remained amidst calamity. Yet, in the waning years, the Ursus Empire sought to transcend limitation. A council of scientists unveiled an experimental machine-the Particle Accelerator. Its purpose was veiled in equal parts ambition and desperation: to harness a boundless new source of energy, or perhaps to forge a weapon that could alter the balance of power across Terra. But their gamble tore a wound in the very fabric of reality. Through the rift they opened, another world was revealed-strange, vast, and untamed. At first, awe overcame fear. Explorers dreamed of conquest, of knowledge, of advancement beyond measure. Then came the shadows. Not men, nor beasts familiar to our lands, but creatures innumerable. From the abyss poured teeth and talons without end, a tide of hunger and violence. The scholars of Ursus were the first to witness it, and the first to perish. Thus marks the most recent tragedy in Terra's already blood-soaked history. The portal remains a scar upon our world... and a reminder that some doors, once opened, should never be touched again.

Down The Rabbit Hole | Chishiya by curse_of_the_raven

No new chapters for the time being! ♤♧♢♡ The sky, which had been bathed in a soft red, had to be an indication that this was a real world, after all there was a sun and a moon, as well as stars. Was I still on Earth then? Or were there other planets that had the same orbit? What should I do now? Should I wait for something to happen? Would that eventually wake me up? Or should I keep moving to find an answer? Questions upon questions, but no answers. A lump formed in my throat, and I had to swallow it. The sour aftertaste remained. The nausea had been with me all afternoon and didn't seem to let go of me even now, even though I had already eaten and drunk something. I turned away from the window and stared at the photo wall that Mom had put up for us on my fourteenth birthday. It was filled with memories of everything I never wanted to forget. I wanted more photos to be added, after all, my story was far from over. But would I ever go back to fulfill that wish? Now, I didn't believe such a reunion would happen. ♤♧♢♡ Based on the Alice in Borderland series by Netflix and the manga series by Haro Aso. This is a slow burn fanfiction. The story contains violence, inappropriate language and sexual themes - read at your own risk. This story is written in the first person narrative! First publication: 30.01.2023 - 23.04.2023.

Life On This Planet: Book 1 by SeoulStorySpinner

By 2422, humankind has achieved an ecotopian climate-positive future. There's zero conflict and zero waste throughout the whole world. But, when a young girl starts having mysterious visions of a walled city, it might signal the ancient return of something threatening this ideal. Can humans escape their nature, or will they return to their old patterns and behaviours? Zee, a quiet and industrious young girl, begins to have vivid dreams and visions of a walled city and a mysterious red book when she turns fifteen. She embarks on a dangerous training programme, meeting other teenagers from around the planet, navigating deep sea trenches, black holes, and a new romance whilst trying to uncover an ancient mystery surrounding quantum entanglement. Will she solve it to save her pet squid and the planet? When millions of Earth's populations left four hundred years ago seeking a new planet to colonise, it paved the way for Earth to stabilise and thrive. But what happened to those people? Why has there been no contact? Are the visions sent from the ancient humans who left planet Earth? Zee quickly learns that her newfound independence is not without its challenges. Some of which might not be from this planet.

Shattered Reality of Two Worlds [Arknights Fanfic] by Coffee_Cat_of_IOP

"We never anticipated the worst-case scenario. No one imagined this day would come-and now, unprepared and disoriented, we find ourselves on an unfamiliar world." "Are we no longer in ours home?" Everything changed in an instant. In the blink of an eye, the world we knew was gone. Are we truly still on the same planet? All we can do now is look upward, confront the unknown, and keep moving forward-into a world that offers no clear answers, only questions. Beneath the scorching Sands of Desolate Deserts, Beyond the Depths of Frost-Laden Forests, Atop the Highest, most Unforgiving Peaks, Lurking within the Shadows of our own Fears, Beneath the Silence Wave of Deep Blue Sea, Even amidst the Fields of Silent, a Witness Flowers. Does this mark the trial of a god? A divine plan? Or is it merely an opportunity-ours to seize or squander as the sun sets on what once was? Let us hope we are prepared for the worst... When two worlds collide, what will follow? Will reason prevail? Will they seek mutual understanding, or will ambition and fear lead us to go M.A.D. (Mutually Assured Destruction) a War Without Reason? [Literally The semi Modern-Future era (Earth) x Terra (Arknights) shinanigan]

Shards of darkness (watty awards 2012) by 09seldenl

A terrible war is raging, the conclusion of which could decipher the future of the universe... Three planets. Parallel yet all intricately bound by the threads of reality. They have spun for all of time, in separate orbits in different galaxies. Un beknown to one another…. Until now. The Fabrics of the universe are fraying as the different dimensions rub together. Where they touch, catastrophes are unveiled in a series of events that change the concept of reality forever... Earth is afflicted. What’s not dead is dying.

She has a powerful gift of mind sight but will it be enough to slow the pursuit of murder, and starvation? And all the time, her mysterious past shadows her footsteps. Waiting to catch her… Meanwhile Doran, a being bound to the rotting carcase of a dead girl finds herself rescued by the very people who strove to destroy her. With them she finds sanctuary but it is only a matter of time before destiny catches up with her... And all the while he is watching he is waiting and he laughs. Laughs on. He will destroy the universe all the while believing he is its savoir. This is a war none will win but fight they must, until reality is no more… (Before long, Ana is snatched from her own planet to be plunged into a world frozen in time, where pirates steal from all the universe, prehistoric monsters dwell in freezing oceans and a powerful psychic force binds her to a cave to languish in fear. The world has become stronger, harder, callous. Misery lingers in every corner but soon it will have nowhere to hide. Every thing shall burn. And he will laugh…)

Homeless (a Hetalia Fanfic, Book Three) by BookBird1497

"Beware the world... they're out to get you... to end your life... Beware..." These were the bone-chilling words that ran through Alice's mind the last time we met her. Now, she is plagued by much worse than just creepy messages from a disembodied voice. The solution to her plight evades her around every twist and turn, try as she might to catch and hold onto the answer. Meanwhile, it does appear as though the world is out to get her. First, she dealt with countries from another dimension; then, her troubles lay in the Darkness, the embodiment of all that is evil. Finally, the nations are keeping busy with struggles that are coming from... humans? Ordinary, non-magical, everyday humans? This isn't X-Men, so what gives? Come along and search with Alice as she struggles to comprehend matters of the world as well as matters of the convoluted heart. The answers might just be right there in front of your face... Rated PG-13, though I'm willing to bet some parts will be more R-rated. I shall put warnings up just in case. Cover is taken from Pinterest and edited by Mini_Moffat. It might be changed to another cover, but until then... Warning: character death --that will make you VERY unhappy. Please do not give up hope!-- swearing, violence, espionage, awesomeness, and a multitude of references. Read at your own risk, show your support, and please appreciate all the hard work the author has put into making this book a reality.
