survival

It all began with one challenge. Kairo, the untouchable king of campus. A cocky, magnetic heartbreaker every girl dreams of. A walking sin with a smirk that ruins and a charm that destroys. A Casanova who collects hearts like trophies… and never keeps one for long. Then there’s Sara, the quiet nerd who loved him in silence. Not just his body, not just the fantasy every other girl wanted, she longed for all of him. His heart. His soul. His love. But when a challenge pulled them together, his goal was to win the game. Hers was to win him. And somewhere in between, everything changed. What was supposed to be fun became chaos, twisting Sara’s already fragile life into a disaster she never saw coming. Yet, when everything crumbles, she clings to the only thing that keeps her alive, her secret blessing. Her heartbeat. Her reason to keep going.

Most people dream of escaping their miserable lives. I wasn’t one of them. Sure, life on Earth had its problems like bad economy, power outages, corrupt systems, but it was still better than dying in some fictional hellhole. Unfortunately for me, I didn’t get a choice. All it took was one angry rant. One bad review. And the next thing I knew, I was dragged into the very novel I trashed, by the author themselves. Yeah… apparently, they don’t take criticism well. Now I’m stuck in a world I know is filled with death flags, monsters, and absolute nonsense, and worse, that unhinged author might still be watching me. Fine. Let them watch. Because no matter what they throw at me… I refuse to die here. Even if it means dealing with frustrating women who seem he'll bent on destroying my peace.

This was the story of the Wannabe Webnovelist Team (aka WW) who slaved over writing for five years and did not receive a single reader, only to discover that the person responsible for the final edit and publishing in the Wannabe Webnovelist writing team never actually published anything. He had only uploaded everything to the drafts. Sit back and relax (or not) as you try to figure out which character has written which paragraph or chapter. Not to mention working out how many people are actually in this team - this may fluctuate. The WW team's rules in this novel are that once a chapter has been published, no one in the team can edit it. (NB: all the characters in this work are fictional and while any resemblance to real life people are not entirely coincidental - no insults are meant. This is a completely tongue in cheek, rubbish piece of nothing. Yes, you read that right. If you find this as nonsensical as the author(s), then 'high five!' You are on the right page.) Also, has this story really been discontinued? Wait and see... because if it really has been discontinued, we hope the readers enjoy being left hanging on the cliff edge - or just hanging, cos there's nothing wrong with just hanging about. Addit Oct 2023: WW is on a long break. Who knows if they'll ever get back together or come back (in fact, I doubt they will ever return - I think they've given up). Therefore, you will receive random short stories instead. This is now truly discontinuous nonsense. Enjoy. If you don't like one story, you can now switch to a different one via the contents page. Yay.

She opens her eyes inside a glass pod, surrounded by flowers that have grown over everything, including her. No past. No memory. Not even a name, until she finds it etched into the glass she just crawled out of. Ashe. Everyone here woke up the same way, with nothing but the word people use for what they are. Emergents. Most of them have learned to live with the not-knowing, to build something small and practical out of whatever this world still offers and call it enough. Ashe finds she cannot do that. A written voice that calls itself Seven follows her across ruins and open plains, knowing things about her that she doesn't know herself. A symbol is tattooed into her that no one will explain, and above it all, a colossal vessel drifts across the sky on the same slow, unchanging arc, day after day, as though it has been waiting for something for a very long time. Ashe doesn't know what she is yet. But she goes looking. Her journey takes her through ruins older than anyone alive and settlements full of people who have made their peace with not knowing, uncovering things the world has kept buried, things that were never meant to be found and yet seem to have been waiting for her all along.

Nayza's a girl who's struggling to shake off her past. She's living alone, trying to find peace, but something's haunting her. A mysterious bouquet and card arrive, triggering memories she'd rather forget. Now she's got to face whatever's been eating away at her.

Sarah’s life shatters in a single moment. After a devastating accident, she wakes up with no memory of who she is, where she belongs, or the people she once loved. Lost and broken, she is given a new name… a new identity… Sofia. As she struggles to rebuild her life, a kind and gentle doctor, Kevin, becomes her only support. In his world, she finds warmth, care… and a little girl who unknowingly fills the emptiness in her heart. But somewhere far away, a man named Ryan is desperately searching for her—haunted by guilt, regret, and a love he realized too late. As fragments of Sarah’s past begin to return, questions arise— Who was she before the accident? Why do certain faces and moments feel so familiar… yet so distant? And when the truth finally comes out… will she choose the life she lost… or the one she is slowly building? Because sometimes… forgetting the past isn’t a curse. Sometimes… it’s a second chance.

Clint Bradford died with his hand on a steering wheel and woke up with a hospital bracelet he didn't recognize. Transmigrated into the high-stakes world of The Night Agent, he finds himself bound to the "Shadow Protocol Network"—a covert intelligence system that doesn't use floating screens, but translates survival as raw instinct. While Peter Sutherland waits for a phone that never rings, Clint is already mapping "Operational Awareness" over the White House basement and wrestling with "Muscle Memory Burns" from lives he never lived. Armed with the "Archive," a perfect recall of a conspiracy that hasn't finished unfolding, Clint must navigate a landscape of moles and assassins where his greatest weapon isn't a gun—it’s the terrifying realization that he knows exactly where the bomb is hidden before the clock even starts.

The beginning of the apocalypse brought chaos and disaster to humanity. It tore away the mask of society and revealed the cruelty hiding beneath. Ivy Ravencroft experienced it all firsthand. Her family was unfair and cruel, and they abused her so badly that she went blind. Her lover died trying to protect her, and she spent the next five years struggling to survive, until she finally died in the apocalypse. But then, Ivy woke up again, reborn in the first year of the apocalypse. At first, she felt hopeless. If only she had returned to a time before the apocalypse, she could have gathered food, weapons, and supplies to survive better. Still, she was grateful for one thing: she had kept her special ability, the power to create safe zones. This time, Ivy made a promise. She would protect her lover, find her real family, and take revenge on everyone who had hurt her. .................................. "Huh? Why is there a bento box lying here?" Ivy asked, confused. "What bento? Are you trying to trick me again?" Silas asked, sadness in his eyes. "This one!" Ivy said, holding up the packaged meal and waving it at him. "What the... where did that come from?" Silas stared at it in shock. Ivy’s eyes widened. She realized something, only she could see these items, and when she picked them up, they became real. "Can… I buy it from you?" Silas asked, unsure. "Of course. But I won't give it to you for free." Ivy smiled like a fox. Silas closed his eyes; he was ready for her to demand something sky-high and said, "Okay. Tell me how many gold bars you want." Ivy smiled and teased, "I don't want gold bars; they are way too cheap. I want one kiss." Silas: Blushing hard. His subordinates: "..." This wave of dog food was too unexpected! ....................................................... With the supplies, picking a superpower and a safe zone superpower, Ivy built her own residential area. She gained Kindness Energy and multiplied supplies with the help of Temporal Storage. While other bases struggled to make a simple house, she used her golden finger to make luxurious buildings and rent them out, becoming the big shot in the apocalypse.

The last stronghold of humanity has fallen. Lucifer Obsidian dies in the apocalyptic fires of the Abyssal invasion. He snaps awake in his own bed exactly ten years in the past. It is the Day of Awakening. This is the exact moment the Soulbound Arcanum integrates with reality. The system enforces the absolute laws of magic, stats, and levels upon the world. The soul of Lucifer is too heavy. It is completely saturated with a decade of bloodshed and divine wars. The World Laws attempt to assign him a standard mortal class. His paradoxical existence violently shatters the system instead. [Error! Paradox detected. Host possesses excessive timeline energy!] [Class integration abandoned. Recalculating reality formatting…] [Divine Talent Awakened: Apex Multiplier (Passive)] [Effect: All material gains, attributes, summoning probabilities, and resources affecting the Host are multiplied 10,000 fold.] Lucifer is armed with a divine system that fundamentally overwrites reality. He refuses to play by rules of a doomed timeline. He is not going to just survive the apocalypse. He is going to completely monopolize it. A single breath of ambient mana violently skyrockets his physical attributes to superhuman levels. A cheap low-tier summoning stone tears a physical hole in the celestial veil. It pulls down Elara as a lethally beautiful Fallen Valkyrie. A basic architectural repair scroll instantly transforms his crumbling family estate into an impenetrable black-glass fortress. The Great Integration unleashes dungeons across the earth. Mutated beasts and corrupt gods flood the physical plane. The monsters were no more the apex predators. Lucifer will sever his ties to the rotting earth and forcefully raise his kingdom into the sky. The Abyssal gods are coming to end the world. The Regressor is waiting for them. He has all the absolute power this time.

Corinne was never the princess, just her stand-in, sent to marry Alpha Barrett Locke and end a war. The crown was fake, the vows were lies, but the mate bond that snapped into place the night he marked her was brutally real. He knew she wasn’t the real bride. He claimed her anyway. When the true princess returned, he locked Corinne away to bury the scandal. She escaped carrying his child. Six years later, she returns, not as a decoy, but a self-made powerhouse with an empire of her own and a five-year-old son who has Barrett's eyes. She came for revenge. He sees his mate, his heir, and the bond that never died. This time, he’ll destroy anything to keep them both. One deception started the war between them. One child will finish it.
