All of these people!
They had families.
They had futures.
Who knows!
What if they or any of their other fallen brothers and sisters could have cured cancer!
Cured HIV, or AIDS.
Who knows!
I sure as he'll don't.
I'm terrified for my future.
I'm teriffied of going out into he world as me.
As a transgender, gay teenager.
Because I don't want to die!
I don't want to be another statistic.
I don't want to be a number.
I am so afraid for the future.
People like me, fight so hard to stop the future from destroying them.
I don't want a future where I won't be able to be me.
I don't want a future where I am ridiculed, tormented.
Like I am now.
My boyfriend broke up with me because I'm transgender.
He told me he would stay in the relationship,
And the instant I told him, he broke up with me.
It hurts.
It hurts so much.
I'm tired of being me.
I'm tired of hiding who I truly am.
I'm tired!
I think I have some sort of complex.
I'm so sure that I can change the world,
That it effects me mentally and physically.
Transgender people are still people.
Transgender people are 3 times more as likely to be murder.
To be raped.
To be attacked.
Stop this.
Stop this!
I need your help.
Help me save the world.
Help me change everything.
Help me, help the future.
We can do this together.
Stop the statistics.
Stop the attacks.

8 9325The Waterborne - Blasphemous Series
Gamelit / LITRPG Elements are common in this novel. Some say a single action can't change anything. But what if you add another action? And another one? At one point, you would have to agree that a single action can change a person's life. When a young woman is plagued by a mental illness, only a benevolent god can give her a deal worth taking. Living again in another world where underwater monsters, rebellious factions and ancient artefacts are common place, we will have to see, just how much a single action can change things. Updated M - W - S (During the editing / rewriting process, updates are postponed.) This novel is a part of the Blasphemous Series, which can be read in any order, I recommend new readers start with this novel.

8 174MMORPG: THE FALLEN
12th March 6023 AD Mars Military Academy Class D-3 "...got it? Tomorrow you will be going through the integration, remember the main points stats, level, and equipment are not important, what's important are the titles. The integration world is made so that you could settle into the multiverse and gain some headstart over the already established world..." ... Death. The fear of not existing, of being faded and forgotten in the annals of history drove humanity to escape the shackles of mortality. While gene manipulation and strengthening were always supposed to be the answer, an intriguing but surprising development changed the course of humanity. Virtual reality, an unassuming technology that was used for entertainment became the escape pad as the company 'Note' cracked the ability to store the human mind and its consciousness in virtual reality. Some disastrous experiments later and decades of research gave birth to the second home of humanity, also called the 'Multiverse'. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

However, the thing that may hold him back is his power because at best, it's mediocre, but in truth is nothing more than a party trick. What is his power? Well... If I told you everything now, it wouldn't be a story, is it? I'll try to post weekly.

Authors Comment: Hello guys, I am bilingual, sorry if there is bad grammar or it just doesn't make sense or something along the lines. If there are any mistakes (which I know there will be) please tell me even if it's just a minor one. Thank you. Jake was just a normal high school student who plays games and reads manga/novels, he doesn't like to go outside that much and he's a little socially awkward. On one day Jake was just reading a novel and he mumbled ''Status''.
