《The Olympians' Secret》Hades

Muttering darkly, Hades began. "You don't know how I feel Zeus,"
Zeus snorted. "You just want to take control and rule over don't you?"
"Tartarus no!" laughed Hades, "Everyone else is allowed on Olympus full-time, except me. The oldest son of Kronos and Rhea isn't allowed with all the other siblings!"
Poseidon glared along with Hera, at Zeus. Even Hestia glared at Zeus. Zeus shrunk into his throne, wishing for once to NOT be the center of attention.
"I always feel so left out, always alone! At least Poseidon actually visited me," Hades said. His tone was dark and mysterious, yet there was a hint of anger amidst it all.
Zeus fumed angrily, until he couldn't hold it in. "POSEIDON! HOW DARE YOU! I specifically banned you from VISITING HADES-"
Poseidon interrupted by blasting seawater into Zeus's face. "I'm very sorry," Poseidon said, not a hint of sorry in his features, "but, I'm really not." He finished, grinning. Everyone stifled laughs, and Hermes promised himself not too laugh, but one look at Zeus, and he exploded. Hermes guffawed, catching Apollo's eye who in turn also started laughing hysterically. Athena stayed strong, but Zeus being doused in water was too much even for her. Hera turned around, concealing a small smile, and Artemis stared on, shocked. Artemis suddenly laughed at Zeus as he struggled to find words- Artemis's serious facade fading away.
Zeus's face turned red, his pin-striped suit dripping water, but before a single word could be said, shadows wrapped around his mouth. "My turn remember?" sighed Hades exasperatedly. Hermes laughed even harder.
"I've never been allowed, always the outcast. My children are also treated like outcasts, because of you Zeus." Hades sneered, an evil and leering expression fixated on his face. "And don't you dare say my domain is different because Poseidon is allowed!"

Hades huffed, his pale complexion starting to have a little color from his rage. "If I could, I would demand for a revolt and for a different king; Poseidon would be better, anyone but you, dramatic little pest."
Zeus growled, and snatched his Master Bolt. The shadows slipped off his mouth, and he roared, "Think again!"
Before he could fire, Apollo's hand drew back an arrow. "Think again father," said he, his tone steely.
Hades shot a grateful glance, and continued. "Yes Zeus, put down your firecracker and LISTEN!"
Then Hades grinned, a weird expression on the Underworld god. "On the other hand, it's Poseidon's turn!" Hades added, "And I look forward to this."
Athena snorted. "Like Poseidon could even have a intellectual conversation."
"You'll see," smirked Poseidon, his smile unnerving.

Tidal Lock
Humanity has finally taken the next step into space. Governments run research stations throughout the solar system while private enterprises mine asteroids for rare metals and exotic minerals. However, space remains beyond the reach of the everyday person. In contrast, virtual reality technology has led to an explosion of full immersion entertainment for the average consumer, and many people turned to VR for the thrill of spaceflight.One game, Parallax Gate, lets its players experience living in an interstellar civilization. For maximum realism, its developers created a world solely defined by the players' personal skills and ability.Mark Asami, a student of aerospace engineering at MIT, dreams of bringing spaceflight to the masses. To his disappointment, his first year courses barely relate to his interests, so he passes time as Aero Rayne in Parallax Gate with his roommate and their organization, the Temple Wraiths. Before they realized, a chain of in-game events drew them deeper into the game's world and politics than they ever intended to go.
8 131Evolution (Rewrite)
In a single instant, we lost everything. All the technology and progress made by the humankind stopped working. However, that was just the beginning of a new age of evolution — an era marked by battles and fighting for survival to make humanity reach the next level. To me, the end of our civilization made me realize many things. It made me realize how I was short-sighted and weak. Many people died in just a few days. And that made me understand how humankind was soft. But in the end, all my struggles were for naught. In the end, everything made me understand what I truly was. I was just a...
