In a world where science bends the very fabric of time, Dr. Elara Voss stands at the edge of discovery-and disaster. Deep within a secret facility, a shimmering anomaly defies all logic, echoing with the pulse of futures unseen. As reality fractures and the lines between observer and observed blur, Elara and her team must confront forces far beyond human comprehension. But when time begins to awaken, and a figure known only as "The Pilgrim" emerges from its depths, Elara faces the ultimate question: Will she control the future-or become it?

Experiment X by bjorghalla
13 parts Ongoing Mature
In a future where science has unlocked secrets once thought impossible, Earth's most ambitious project is an experiment shrouded in mystery-and ethical gray areas. Dr. Aria Voss, a brilliant geneticist with a mind like no other, is brought in to study an extraordinary alien specimen. She's a woman of science, grounded in logic and precision, yet challenged by the world's view of her autism, which has isolated her from colleagues and any real connections. But her work offers her purpose and control in a life that often feels anything but. Her newest subject, known only as "Specimen X," is like nothing Aria has ever encountered. With a striking humanoid form marked by bioluminescent skin, intricate markings, and eyes that seem to hold a universe of secrets, he is a being from a world humanity can barely imagine. But as she delves deeper into her study, Aria begins to suspect that he is far more than just a research subject. Underneath the cold detachment of the laboratory, there's a fierce intelligence-and a sorrow that resonates with her own. As Aria uncovers the dark truths hidden within her organization, she finds herself torn between her loyalty to science and her growing empathy for the alien who has become her closest ally. When she learns of a sinister agenda threatening not only his survival but also her own, Aria must choose: stay silent and remain complicit, or risk everything to set them both free. Experiment X is a tale of love, sacrifice, and the courage to break free of society's bounds, even if it means defying the very foundations of science and humanity.
Sorumeito's Veil by 3trnalPsn
10 parts Ongoing Mature
In a future where technology and mysticism intertwine, humanity has unlocked a gateway to the spirit realm. In a bustling cyberpunk metropolis governed by Sorumeito, a secretive organization promises a utopia where souls are carefully selected for reincarnation to achieve global harmony. Dr. Alma, a pioneering scientist, unveils a startling truth: Sorumeito has been manipulating the reincarnation process, unwittingly funneling purgatory spirits back into the mortal coil. Crime surges as these troubled souls wreak havoc across the cityscape. When Dr. Alma mysteriously disappears, her daughter, Emilia, driven by a quest for truth and justice, delves deep into the neon-lit underbelly of the city. Armed with forbidden knowledge and aided by unlikely allies-a rogue technomancer and a streetwise informant-she unravels a conspiracy that threatens not only the fabric of their society but the balance between the worlds of the living and the dead. As Emilia navigates the shadowy realms of both flesh and spirit, she must confront Sorumeito's enigmatic enforcers, unearth long-buried family secrets, and ultimately confront the true architects of a world where the line between salvation and damnation blurs. In a high-stakes tale of redemption and revolution, "Sorumeito's Veil" is a gripping fusion of cyberpunk grit and supernatural intrigue, where the fate of humanity hinges on the unraveling of mysteries that transcend the boundaries of life and death.

The echoes of tomorrow by The1mperfectDiary
32 parts Ongoing Mature
In a world where the future isn't written but echoed, 17-year-old Lila hears the whispers of events yet to happen - but they're not hers. The echo she's been hearing for months is someone else's life, someone's fate, and that someone is in danger. As she tries to uncover the identity of the person behind the mysterious echoes, Lila finds herself caught in a web of secrets, shadowy figures, and a powerful organization that will do anything to keep their plans hidden. Can she stop what's coming before it's too late, or will the echoes become her own fate? First Chapter (Excerpt): I've always heard things. It started when I was younger - whispers of something I couldn't see, couldn't understand. At first, it was just faint sounds, like voices drifting from another world. But by the time I was sixteen, those whispers turned into something more - echoes. Clear, distinct, and impossible to ignore. It's strange. Most people think the future is something that hasn't happened yet. But for me, it's not that simple. I hear the future. The thing is, the future I hear isn't mine. I've been hearing her - a girl I don't know, yet know everything about. Her life, her fears, her pain. I can't explain how, but I hear her voice every night, calling out for help. I don't know her name. I don't know her face. All I know is that something horrible is coming for her. And if I can't stop it... then her fate might echo into mine. Tonight, I hear her again. The echo sharpens, clearer than ever before. "Help me, Lila. It's happening. They're coming." The echo fades. And just like that, I'm left with a choice - follow the voice, or ignore it and risk the consequences. I don't know why it's me she's calling to, but I can't just do nothing. I owe it to her. And to myself.

Life On This Planet: Book 1

20 parts Complete

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.
