    On April 24, 2004, an impossible archway opened on the South Lawn of the White House. What followed wasn't a clean invasion or a neat first contact; it was chaos, confusion, and a brutal fight for survival as soldiers faced enemies that shouldn't exist and weapons that didn't obey familiar rules. Staff Sergeant Michael Alvarez, a D.C. National Guard MP, survives Day Zero by performing his trained duty: maintaining the line. But when the smoke clears, the gate doesn't close, and the world doesn't get answers. As the U.S. government locks down the truth and builds a permanent foothold around the anomaly, something becomes clear: the Gate is not a temporary crisis. It's a new geographic fact of reality, linking Earth to a ruined capital in another world that fears the Gate as much as humanity does. No heroes. No prophecy. No effortless victories. The White House Event is a grounded, military-focused first-contact story about uncertainty, institutional pressure, and what happens when humanity realizes that the unknown and themselves are permanent. Chapters are released weekly at 12:00 p.m. CST Occasionally, updates will be made to the previous chapters.

      Parts 8
    A nation can imprison a man, but not an idea. Set against the backdrop of a futuristic society ruled by the iron fist of an ultranationalist-fascist regime, a group of masked individuals were drawn together by circumstance and tragedy. Hidden behind their identities and haunted by their pasts, they became unwilling witnesses to a nation unraveling beneath tyranny, corruption, fear, oppression, decadence, and silence. As unrest spreads and the regime's grip begins to crack, they find themselves caught between obedience and resistance, survival and conviction. Bound by loss, disillusionment, and a shared longing for change, they must navigate a world where truth is suppressed, dissent is punished, and hope itself is treated as a threat. But beyond every mask lies a truth waiting to be uncovered, and some truths are powerful enough to awaken the people. A novel in memory of a long-forgotten revolution. DISCLAIMER: All elements in the story are fictional, and any real-life parallels are purely coincidental and unintentional. [Written in Taglish]

    After death, the greatest minds in early American history awaken in a place they cannot understand-a vast, silent observation chamber known only as The Glass Room. From here, they can see the living world. But the living world cannot see them. No voices cross the divide. No warnings can be given. No intervention is possible. They are forced into eternal observation-watching centuries unfold through one-way panes of glass, like prisoners behind a mirror in an interrogation room where history is both suspect and evidence. What they witness is not the nation they once knew-but something that grew far beyond their design. A modern world of overwhelming scale, fractured trust, accelerating information, and constant political tension. Every decision echoes outward. Every consequence compounds. Every assumption they once held is tested against outcomes they never could have foreseen. At first, they try to understand it. Then they begin to argue. Was the system flawed from the start-or corrupted over time? Is instability the price of freedom, or the sign of collapse? And if a republic survives but no longer resembles its creators' intent... does it still mean success? As the Founding Fathers fracture into competing interpretations of their own legacy, the Glass Room becomes more than an afterlife. It becomes an endless debate between philosophy and reality. Between intention and consequence. Between what a nation was built to be-and what it became without permission. A political psychological thriller about power, time, and irreversible history, The Glass Room asks one haunting question: What happens when the architects of a system can only watch it evolve... and realize they no longer agree on what they built?

    After Stamford, the world stops trusting heroes. Hundreds are dead. Children are buried. The public wants accountability, and Tony Stark agrees. Superheroes need oversight before another disaster turns a city into a graveyard. But Steve Rogers reads the fine print. The new Enhanced Accountability Act does not just regulate heroes. It creates a list of every enhanced person on Earth: mutants, vigilantes, magic users, alien refugees, powered children, and anyone the government decides is dangerous enough to control. Tony calls it responsibility. Steve calls it ownership. Spider-Man is caught between them, desperate to do the right thing before his choice destroys everyone he loves. As heroes divide, families go into hiding, and the first arrests begin, Wolverine uncovers a darker truth: Stamford may not have been an accident. Someone wanted the world afraid. Someone wanted heroes divided. And now the war has begun.

    We are entering Cold War II. This magical property has completely shifted the global power play. ~ Anonymous High-Ranking Official 1) This story uses the present tense for current scenes and past tense for flashbacks/memory sequences 2) Features a slow-burn pace, original characters (OCs), and a Dark AU theme that will expand significantly as the plot progresses. Enjoy the journey!👍 ================================================================================== When Ladybug handed a Miraculous to the wrong person, Monarch claimed nearly all the jewels-and with them, absolute power. Paris is now drowning in fear. But the real war has only just begun. The United Nations has called an emergency global summit, but behind the scenes, the superpowers are already fighting dirty. China and Russia demand the Miraculouses as their historical birthright. NATO wants to seize them "for world security." Spies flood the streets of Paris, Guardians are being tortured in secret facilities, and military forces from multiple nations are gathering under the UN flag. Two teenagers who once fought akumas now find themselves at the center of a terrifying new Cold War. Every country wants Ladybug and Cat Noir-either as weapons, assets... or threats that must be eliminated. One wrong move at the conference table, one leaked identity, or one desperate alliance could spark a global conflict that makes Monarch look like child's play. In this ruthless game of power, diplomacy is just another weapon. And the heroes? They just became the most dangerous pawns in the world. ================================================================================== Disclaimer: 1) This story diverges after Season 5, Episode 1 (Evolution). 2) I am a rookie writer, and English is my second language. I do my absolute best to write clearly, and I deeply appreciate your patience with any errors! 3) Cover art is sourced from the internet and edited by me in Canva. Thank you ~ Sincerely WL

    "He's teaching her how to hack his empire. She's collecting the evidence to burn it down." I was paid to translate. Not to interpret. Not to judge. Kira Khine arrives in Portugal with a passport missing an entry stamp, a revoked university admission, and €23,000 she refuses to touch. She didn't come for romance. She came to survive. But survival gets complicated when her landlord turns out to be Rodrigo Costa-a tech billionaire, single father, and the quietest, most unreadable face in northern Portugal. He offers her a deal: translate contracts in Burmese. In exchange, he'll teach her to hack. She takes it. Then she translates Clause 12.4. IMEI numbers. Geolocation data. Unrestricted real-time access-disguised as "urban planning." The kind of data you use to hunt people. The kind of people who disappear in Myanmar every day. Now, Kira has a choice: look away and cash the cheque. Or learn everything Rodrigo can teach her, and use it to destroy him. An impossible attraction. A dangerous game of secrets. He's letting his guard down around her-and she's collecting the evidence to burn his empire to the ground. Somewhere in the vineyard, a seven-year-old girl named Sofia is waiting for her friend Kiki to come to her birthday party. I trust me.She did. She does. A slow-burn geopolitical thriller about translation, cyber warfare, and ultimate betrayal.

    History remembers kings. It forgets the hands that removed their rivals. For centuries, the Arguëlles have moved through the spine of the nation- unseen, unrecorded, and untouched by regime change. Presidents rise. Dynasties flourish. Empires collapse. The Arguëlles remain. When Vincienzo Araneta enters St. Ethereal Institute, An academy built to groom heirs of power, old bloodlines begin to shift. This is not a story about heroes. It is a story about inheritance, institutions, and the quiet violence required to keep a crown.

    # INTRODUCTION: THE DEVIL'S ARGUMENT *"The most dangerous criminals don't run from the law. They hire it."* It was supposed to be a harmless road trip. Four ordinary college students. One rainy highway. One unfortunate accident. One dying stranger. And one waterproof bag that should have been left untouched. For two days, they believed they had escaped their mistake. Then the police arrived. Not with questions. With handcuffs. Suddenly, the students found themselves accused of murder, drug smuggling, and conspiracy. The media branded them criminals before the trial had even begun. Politicians demanded justice. The public demanded punishment. The case was already decided. Or so everyone believed. Because somewhere behind the headlines, behind the police reports, and behind the courtroom walls, a much larger game was being played. A game involving stolen land. Buried secrets. Disappeared witnesses. And powerful men willing to destroy anyone who stood in their way. Including four innocent students. Their only hope is a lawyer feared throughout the legal world. A man with no surname. No family. No reputation for kindness. Only a nickname. **Mr. Devil.** A lawyer so brilliant that people say he can turn lies into truth and truth into lies. The problem? He has already accepted money to lose the case. Now the students must trust the one man who may have already betrayed them. And Agastya must decide whether he wants to remain the monster he created... or become the man he once promised himself he would be. Because in this courtroom... the trial isn't just about guilt. It's about conscience. And some verdicts are delivered long before the judge speaks. --- ## 4 STUDENTS ## 1 DEAD STRANGER ## 1 CORRUPT EMPIRE ## 1 LAWYER KNOWN AS MR. DEVIL ### And a secret powerful enough to destroy them all. --- ## ⚠️ AUTHOR'S ADVISORY This is a dark legal thriller containing: ### THE CORRUPTION OF POWER Political influence, abuse of author

    There is a bureau that does not exist. No letterhead. No public record. No name on any government registry in any country. It operates beneath the visible architecture of the world, and the only people who know it is real are the ones who work inside it and the ones who become its subjects. Nadia Cole has spent eight years as one of its best. Senior Field Agent. Closer of cases. The woman they send when no one else can. She does not flinch. She does not falter. She does not get attached. Then they assign her Choi Minho. He is not what the file says. He is not confused or unraveling the way anomalies usually are. He has been watching the system that now watches him, and he has been watching it far longer than anyone at the bureau is willing to admit. The deeper she goes into his case, the more she finds cracks in her own record. Subjects she resolved. People who were supposed to have been stabilized and released. People who are, when she looks closely enough, simply gone. Neo Seoul stretches beneath them, all layered glass and old neon and government towers that never sleep. Somewhere inside that hum is a man who exists in multiple records simultaneously, a woman who appears in his life without ever quite being real, and an agency rewriting its own history for decades. She is going to have to choose. And you are not going to know which way she goes. © Relle H.

    They came with paper and left with everything else. The paper stayed. We have been governing ourselves with their handwriting ever since. Valdara is thirty-one years free and not free at all. The Auren Empire is gone. What remains is The Registry - their administrative backbone, buried inside the Federal Union's digital infrastructure, forgotten by everyone except the ghost of the system that built it. It gives whoever finds it something the constitution never intended any single person to have: access to everything. Every contract. Every account. Every stolen valda sitting in a ghost company's ledger while a northern village buries its children. Zara Mosa found it at 2am in a government server room, on her knees on cold concrete, following a paper trail that led from a phantom road contractor to a school convoy massacre to the quiet, catastrophic center of how Valdara actually works. She is twenty-five. She is precise, patient, and furious in the specific way of someone who has watched the same theft performed on the same people for her entire life. She is going to burn it down - not with fire, but with the Aurens' own instrument. The Registry, turned against the system it was built to protect. Rowan Vael, the man hired to stop her, calls this dangerous. He is right. Zara calls it justice. She is also right. Valdara calls it nothing yet. It doesn't know she exists. Not yet. The Registry is literary political thriller - a story about colonialism's long shadow, the mathematics of corruption, and one woman's war against a system designed to survive every attempt to fix it. For anyone who has ever watched their country perform justice without delivering it.

    🌳 ANG HULING BERDE Hindi nagsimula ang katapusan nang lumitaw ang mga halimaw. Hindi rin nang magsimulang magkaroon ng mga mutation. Nagsimula ito nang putulin nila ang mga kagubatan.

Sa isang makabagong mundo na tahanan ng iba't ibang lahi, kultura, relihiyon, at paniniwala, unti-unting bumabagsak ang balanse ng kalikasan dahil sa korupsiyon, kasakiman, krimen, digmaan, droga, online gambling, at kapangyarihan ng mga oligarko. Habang lumalala ang mga sakuna sa iba't ibang bansa, may mga kakaibang pangyayaring nagsisimulang gumulantang sa buong mundo. Mga hayop na nagbabago. Mga kagubatang hindi na dapat buhay. Mga ilog na tila may sariling kamalayan. At mga nilalang na hindi kayang ipaliwanag ng agham. Mula sa mga ordinaryong mamamayan, estudyante, doktor, mamamahayag, sundalo, siyentipiko, relihiyosong lider, pulitiko, hanggang sa mga kriminal at makapangyarihang negosyante-lahat ay magiging bahagi ng laban para sa kinabukasan ng kanilang mundo. Isang mundong puno ng pag-ibig at poot. Pananampalataya at kasinungalingan. Pag-asa at pagkawasak. Sapagkat kapag namatay ang huling berde... ano pa ang matitira sa mundo?

    ⚠️ Note: This book was previously titled "The Crimson Oath" by some misunderstanding I had earlier. Same story, just updated title for clarity. The Crimson Oath - Book One: Empire of Shadows Power in this country does not belong to institutions. It belongs to those who control them. The Rajawat dynasty has ruled the corridors of power for decades-politics, judiciary, administration, influence. At the center of this empire stands a man who rarely speaks, rarely appears, yet somehow controls more than anyone realizes. Rudra Dev Rajawat. Calm. Strategic. Invisible to the public eye but deeply woven into the system that runs the nation. But every empire eventually meets the one force it cannot predict. Anvika Sen. Strong, fearless, and unwilling to bow before power-no matter how powerful the Rajawat name may be. When their worlds collide, alliances will be tested, secrets will surface, and a dangerous oath will bind destinies that were never meant to cross. Welcome to The Crimson Oath - a story of power, strategy, loyalty, and the battles fought in the shadows. Hello dear readers! I'm a new writer and this is my first series. Your feedback and guidance will mean a lot to me during this journey.
