Set ten years after the events of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, John Connor and his mother, Sarah Connor, are off-grid and separated in 2005. While Sarah is at Norfolk, Virginia, for matters too personal to tell her own son, John is surviving on his own and living his best life... or so he thought. When a new Terminator model attempts to murder him, he must force himself to repeat the fate that he and his mother are doomed to live unless he can change it. 

It's 2022 and Reyna Dahyun is not supposed to be alive after Judgment Day, not after she committed murder. But a solution known as the Homo novae solution allows her to be better than she was before, granting her with abilities that no normal human has in return for fighting with the Resistance. So when she is assigned a mission from her general, John Connor,  to protect his past self from the latest Terminator model, she jumps at the opportunity to redeem herself if time and fate won't claim her first.

17 parts Complete
Special Agent Alyssa Caine has been tasked with the most important mission of her life: the assassination of the man who would bring about the end of the world. The only problem? He is already dead. A minor issue that is resolved in the year 2157 when a renegade group of scientists develops a device that allows to jump through time. They recruit the former special agent to send her back fifty years, to take just one man out of the equation, a minimal change with a predicted maximal effect on the fate of the world, and prevent a devastating war that has driven the last surviving humans to live in decrepit underground bunkers. Every action has a consequence. Alyssa is humanity's last hope, and her actions will determine the fate of the whole world. She is willing to sacrifice everything for a better future. But she soon realizes that the impact of her actions might be beyond her control, and beyond all predictions. _____ Highest Rankings: #16 in Science [06.02.2019] #36 in Dystopia [06.02.2019] #65 in FemaleProtagonist [01.02.2019] #71 in TimeTravel [06.02.2019] #1 in Paradox [28.02.2019] #1 in ONC2019 [01.02.2019] #3 in OpenNovellaContest2019 [28.02.2019] This is my entry for the ONC 2019! At first I thought I'd pick something a bit out of my comfort zone (so.... NOT SciFi for once...) to expand my horizon, but when I saw a prompt about time travel I was immediately inspired. Please keep in mind, all of this is WIP! The title, cover, and some of the content might change at any time... I have an outline and I worked hard to come up with a compelling and consistent story line, but due to the nature of the story (timey whimey stuff!) I might have to revise things a few times as I write. I'm grateful for any feedback and I hope you enjoy :)
L.O.V.E. by denissebloom04

100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)

"She has been through hell. So believe me when I say, fear when she looks into a fire and smiles"-E.Corona ~Excerpt~ At the institute it was 'de rigueur' to have the ability to fight off 5 fully grown people simultaneously, crazy right? No wonder so many of us children broke, I remember the broken ones would grow very sick or maybe they would start rambling nonsense or some would just fall asleep and not wake up, lucky bastards. ~Blurb~ Kingide Taylor may look normal and may act normal yet she is anything but, she's a highly trained assassin who smiles in the face of death. After escaping the institution that turned her into a weapon, she made it her goal to live a normal life. But when her and a group of misfits are rounded up by the government to save their country, she plunges into a world she tried so hard to escape. Will she find something she didn't even know needed? Or fulfil a promise she'd forgot about? An assassin, an arsonist, a thief, a mad scientist, a psychopath and a manipulator. The syndicate of tyranny, will they really be the saviours of their country or the downfall? Secrets being revealed and their devastating past being uncloaked, will it be what brings them together or causes their dissolution? Read to find out Ranked #2 for mad-scientist (Jan 6th 2021) Ranked #2 for manipulator(Jan 6th 2021) Ranked #2 for arsonist( Jan 28th 2021)
