Collision of Myths
You all have probably heard this one. A hero is summoned from another world and is needed to defeat evil. That's all well and good. But this story is not about him. No, this story is about His younger brother who has been reincarnated as one of his descendants. And he's bringing with him all the myths and cultures from the other world with him. His journey will be one crazy turn after another. But it looks like he's just the person to accept the challenge. P.S. This is my first time writing stuff like this so go easy on me with the comments. I may also need some help with spelling and grammar. Image by Gerd Altmann from Pixabay

CATastrophe
After a bunch of nuclear power-plants all around the world exploded due to some dumb mistakes, radiation caused mutations in just about all the animals and some plants on planet earth. Especially cats. Now cats are the lifeform above all lifeforms, because for some strange reason, radiation had a veryyy pronounced effect on cats. Now dead-set on vengance, cats are out to get humans for making embarassing dank memes of cats and overall setting dogs as the superior species. This will be really endangering the humankind. Plus the fact that now every single animal on earth is sentient, stronger, and sometimes smarter than humans, humans are now on the bottom of the food-chain. Follow Dave the cat-hating prick, on his journey to put humanity back on top, and to pacify as many prideful cats as possible. But first he will have to deal with his girlfriend's cat Holly and her shenanigans. Authors note: Don't expect a lot for this series, this is like my first proper story.
