My Father's Last Transmission Led Me to Hell

WHAT IF EVERYONE AROUND YOU COULD BE SYNTHETIC—AND YOU HAD NO WAY TO TELL? I decoded my father's final transmission. I wish I hadn't. Synthetic humans are real. An AI facility beneath Colorado is producing perfect infiltrators. They've been placed across the wasteland for years. Anyone could be one. Your commanding officer. Your best friend. The person sleeping in the bunk next to you. My father—Ranger Marcus Chen—discovered this fifteen years ago. He tried to expose it. They killed him. His final transmission was corrupted, classified, buried. The one part that mattered—how to identify synths—was destroyed. Now I'm being deployed to the same place that killed him. With no way to tell who's human. I'm Kai Chen. Here's what I have: - A gift for languages (fluent in six, learning languages in days instead of months) - Rapid learning ability (I acquire skills 5-10x faster than normal) - Trust issues (everyone is a potential threat) - My father's encrypted letters (still can't fully decode them) - A burning need for answers (and maybe revenge) Here's what I'm facing: - Brutal Ranger training designed to break me - A conspiracy that goes to the top of command - Synthetic infiltrators who might already be in the Citadel - A mission to Colorado that's obviously a trap - The frozen wasteland that took my father's life Here's what I know: - The Patriarch is inviting Rangers to Colorado for a reason - People who investigate the synth conspiracy end up dead - I'm walking the same path that killed my father - Some truths are more dangerous than the lies that cover them My father's last words: "Tell Kai I'm sorry." I'm not sorry. I'm finishing what he started. Even if it kills me too. ---

A King's Fate

Alexander Frederick was an ordinary university graduate, poised to inherit his family’s business and a quiet, predictable future. That future was erased in blood. A feared organization (The Selflaw) slaughtered his parents and murdered his closest friend. Grief collapsed into rage, and rage awakened a power so violent it shattered science, reason, and every limit Alexander believed immutable. In claiming vengeance, he destroyed more than his enemies. He destroyed himself. Death should have been final. Instead, Alexander awakens in absolute darkness—bodiless, adrift within an endless void where time fractures and existence feels uncertain. A presence speaks. He believes it to be judgment. He is wrong. What answers him is older than divinity, vast beyond comprehension, and bound by laws even the universe resists. Reborn into a world of Integrators, Alexander rises without his memories, yet burdened by fractured echoes that refuse to fade—fear, shame, grief, and a buried weakness gnawing at his subconscious. Balanced on the edge of madness and a meaningless death, he refuses to break. Not yet. Not until he understands what he has become. Not until he uncovers the truth behind his own incompleteness. The unreasonable power he once wielded has not vanished. It lingers—fractured, restrained, and tied to death itself in ways even the strongest of this world cannot perceive. In a realm far larger, crueler, and more indifferent than the one he lost, Alexander is drawn into conflicts far beyond revenge—forced to confront hidden currents that shape reality, face his fear of dissolution, and walk toward a destiny he can neither deny… …nor escape.

The Ender's Ascendance

We were deceived…. We all were. They never said that the Rapture would unleash these kind of monsters unto the earth. They never mentioned what would crawl out from the aftermath Rapture or what would be forced to crawl back in. The entirety of the earth was terraformed in an unrecognisable way, so much that it could not be called earth anymore…… Maps became things of old. Directions lost meaning. Even the sky stopped pretending to remember us. *Sigh* I did want I could to survive, but…. they died, one after another… Not all at once. That would have been mercy, mercy I would have begged for... People screamed. Some adapted. Others smiled before they broke. I kept count until the numbers started staring back at me. But things — things never go the way I plan… Or maybe they did— and that’s the part I don’t want to admit. As for me…. It turns out, I never really knew who I was. Not before the world — 'They' came for me. Not before freedom and survival demanded pain and sacrifices. I changed….. I became the very thing that I— Promised I wouldn’t. Feared I already was. *Sigh* Or hoped I was. I don’t know if someone is but— haha who am I kidding, I’m not that special I know that. *Sigh* But on off chance there is — If there’s someone out there writing my story…. Please… Drop the pen… Because I’m tired… *Sigh* so tired. _______ For images and discuss... Discord link: https://discord.gg/u2yVtVkudz _______
