Shadow Slave: Weaving a New Path

Humanity was never meant to survive — it was designed to kill. The Spell, Weaver’s grand design, was not salvation but a weapon: a system to forge humanity strong enough to destroy the Unknown, the eternal predator beyond reality. But something went wrong. One man — one shadow — broke his chains and defied destiny. Sunny’s rebellion against fate unraveled the design itself. The threads of prophecy twisted beyond Weaver’s reach, and the future became unreadable. The Unknown stirred before its death could be written. Humanity fell. As the world crumbled, Weaver made a final, desperate choice. He wove not another Spell, but a being. Using his own flesh, his last eye, and the fragments of eternity, he created Tessera — a living thread meant to restore the design that once guided humankind. A creature neither divine nor mortal, born from the fabric of inevitability itself. Now cast backward through the tattered tapestry of time, Tess awakens in Bastion — the last city of mankind — with one purpose: To guide the one who shattered fate toward the ending that was meant to be. But the world she falls into no longer follows any script. Sunny is no longer just a pawn of destiny — he is the flaw that rewrote the pattern. And as Tess walks beside him, threads of choice, love, and despair begin to weave into something even Weaver never foresaw. For the first time in eternity, fate is not written — it’s alive. And even the Weaver’s child may not escape what it creates.

Yu-Gi-Oh Arc V Joker And Later Story

(First 10 chapters, including prologue is a recap with different events by going with anime's story differently but it covers all things shown in anime so you can read this even if you haven't watched the anime and continue this) The story is about Ryoho Akaba, Declan Akaba's 13 year old brother about when he was in the world not yet separated to 4 worlds and his story in the current world one of four it also explores story about his past life in combined world as he was Leo akaba's third child Zarc was his older brother and Ray was his older sister. The story explores about later Story after zarc was defeated (differently). Also old protagonists and characters from other four Yu Gi Oh series will also come. and also major and some events of other world and old series will also take part differently. It will also explore Multivers Other Worlds and Parallel Worlds with different story and settings. (I have made Zarc,Ray and Ryoho siblings and Leo Akaba's Kids in the united world is because to show that Celina,Lulu,Rin and Yuzu are different person not Ray and Yugo,Yuto, Yuya and Yuri are different person not Zarc. and i think they were siblings zarc is shown silver color hair like Declan so zarc was Leo's son but it is not shown but implied.) (I made this fanfic because i don't like the original ending of Arc V if you know you know why i don't like the ending and you also don't like it because it was unsatisfying and everyone who watched the anime know why so i wanted to make this) (There will be some new characters not just for story but battle too and more, I also thaught of new cards, monsters,spell and trap cards ofcourse monster I also mean synchro,xyz and fusion) ___________________________________ (I don't own the rights this is just for the story i want to make and make a satisfying story)

Zhuangzi's Butterfly. 'The Elusive Butterfly of Consciousness. '

Title: Zhuangzi's Butterfly "Once, Zhuangzi dreamed he was a butterfly. When he woke, he could not tell if he was a man who dreamed of being a butterfly, or a butterfly now dreaming he was a man." Two thousand years in the future, this ancient question becomes humanity's last weapon. Earth belongs to the machines—artificial intelligences that rule through logic and force. But for all their power, the AI lack one thing they desperately crave: true consciousness, the spark of qi that separates the living from the programmed. When the human resistance discovers this existential weakness, they launch a sophisticated scam to convince the machines that consciousness can be found in the fluid realities of the multiverse, where identity shifts like Zhuangzi's dream, and no single reality can claim precedence over any other: all are equally authentic. Guided by the mysterious Lingzhe—beings who understand that mind, not logic, birthed the universe—a handful of rebels must navigate worlds where they are never certain who they truly are. In this evolutionary war between soul and machine, there can only be one winner.
