[Oneshot]... more>>

Lost in a field under a star-spangled sky, a woman searches for an answer. She meets a swing-set and there, four individuals who'd may have the answer she needs.

She holds a love in her heart that's poison to her soul. She must break her secret to rid of her curse, but to do so is to forfeit her love, and everything she'd ever worked for.

What would the four say?

And what is that 'thing'?

Everyone knows that magic is real, that it's the driving force behind the evolution society has gone through over the past few thousand years.... more>>

Everyone gets annoyed by the faeries stealing your socks, or swapping your car for a carriage, or coating all your food with salt. Because things like that don't matter enough to hide.

Everyone learns about Hitler, the darkest necromancer ever known,who singlehandedly waged war on the rest of the world, in school, and the other similar events in history. Because they were too large to hide.

But for everything else, the veil hides the magic from the mundane. There might be an unlicenced werewolf working as your librarian. Maybe a dragon owns your local banking chain. Maybe the murder victim who was killed in a locked room WAS killed by an angry ghost. Or a shapeshifter. Or the elder Fae. Or a rogue Wizard.

The solution? Everyone knows the answer to that too. The one thing every police department in the world has in common. The Wizard Division.

The L.A.W.D. (Los Angeles Wizard Division) is in for one hell of a ride, when Charlie, a new trainee foisted into the world of magic joins their ranks, and with him a whole host of new and unusual magic sheananigans comes to Los Angeles. <<less

Dear Readers,... more>>

I am reaching out to provide an important update regarding my novel, "Where To Reach." After thorough reflection, I have decided to embark on a significant restructuring of the story. This decision arises from my concerns about the current narrative's sluggish pace, disrupted pacing, and the lack of meaningful involvement of the main character. As part of this process, I may also consider more substantial changes, such as redesigning the main character, even changing the title or eliminating certain locations from the storyline. But roughly everything should stay the same. I have always struggled with beginning a story so I assure you this is a one off occurrence. Because of this I shall be also deleting everything here and reuploading it as another novel on my profile. When i have the title written I will post it under announcements and leave this novel up for a few more weeks before taking it down. <<less

As a trans girl, I am not happy with J K Rowling. Anyways, the Wizarding World is fun to mess with, so I'm not letting that stop me from writing a HP fanfic.

Humanity's Resources have been used up; off planet migration was the second option, but due to Space debris left by Satellites and wrecked rocket flights, There was little chance a rocket could safely pioneer its way across the atmosphere.... more>>

Heat and weather climates shifted as the temperature across the globe had skyrocketed. Winters were breezy, while summers boiling; A multitude of plant and animal species, especially those who thrived in colder climates, were eradicated over time. Humanity was panicked, as they began last minute changes of protocols in every country: the lack of compliance and the inevitability of the situation made it fruitless.

Aquatic life and mammals had chosen to go into hiding, to the depths of the oceans or borrows within the land. Whatever was left on land hid in the darkest and coldest underground tunnels it could find, while the fish life that didn't leave had started to boil. The resources available diminished as the world had slowly settled itself into a pragmatic starvation. Food was split to a fragment of what was needed to keep people alive, and many did not meet the quota.

War had almost broken out over food supplies, some had tried to hoard from the populace, hidden in their rich castles or islands, they were hidden from public eye. Others attempted to wage wars and slaughter out of delusions of grandeur.

Wars were an opportunity for the rich before, but when the world is starving, little would stop the hunger crazed people from finding them, their walls of twine, and placing their heads on a spike.

When Politics failed, societies and countries, no matter how great their military power was, could only watch as their social structure devoured itself.
Internet crashed somewhere between, leaving communications solely to the governments that still existed.

Thermo Nuclear measures were taken. Some in attempts to cool down the atmosphere, settling the weather at only a reasonably hot environment, where they could at least, rarely, see the snow. Others opted for energy production, as they could no longer feed the 3.2 billion saved from the famine. Many, many opted for war, petty, tiresome war. Pakistan was almost erased, as Hungary was decimated by biological warfare, a plague. It was only when the remaining top countries intervened with greater threats, that smaller ones shut up.

Ultimately, the effort, whether wanted or not, had to be a group effort; No matter who, everyone was pushed into assisting the fight against the climate.

It mattered naught the efforts they took, humanity was a parasite to the world, one that would try to drive their planet to death before dying as they deserved; They wouldn't simply go extinct and allow the planet to recover.

One man, like many individuals who took their own course of actions, decided he needed to deal humanity himself.

He built a photonic computer, one that could restore this world to what it once was...

He was wrong. Very, very, wrong.

It's purpose was to restore the world; even if it meant it had to destroy the world, even if it had to eradicate humanity.

A new era would be made in it's velvet colors, in scarlet touches, a world without futilities would be born. All would be painted in blood as it systematically and violently, restored life on earth; It would use even the most horrific mean if it could.

It was known by one name alone across the nations, as the Red Machine of Damnation, Olivia. <<less

Nova, a revered genius in the tech industry has managed to digitalise himself singlehandedly. Calling him a genius was an understatement. Not only did he successfully make sentient AI, but also develop efficient long distance electrical charging without side effects.
If it is theoretically possible, he can make it a reality.... more>>

After years, centuries of refusing to sell his inventions, he finally outlived humanity.

Humankind has gone extinct. Eradicated through their own idiocy.
His secret lab hasn't been found, however.

He spent his time learning, reading and upgrading his tech. He wanted to learn all the concepts, all the secrets and science the world has to offer. He spent millennia studying the knowledge humanity left behind and at last, he was satisfied.

With nothing to do, he entered digital hibernation, only to be waken up and finding life on earth flourish once again. But that wasn't what Technus was so fascinated by.

His attention instead, was on the sudden presence of what seems like magic. Several new races now populated the planet and utilised this magic.

Technus knew, that there was no such thing as impossible supernatural forces. Even this magic has a science behind it.

'I want to learn all about it!'
