Chaton Neon

Rain stained the neon skyline, dripping off rusted houses as she checked her wrist—no ID, no signal, no past. Liora doesn’t exist. At least, not officially. But the encrypted memories digging at the edge of her mind tell a different story. When The Clan pulls her into their war, she realizes the city didn’t forget her. Whispering her name like an old wound, it's just waiting for her to wake up. And when she does, the world might be rebuilt. Or burnt down.

**"In the neon-lit streets of Tokyo, two broken souls collide. Haruki, a reclusive artist haunted by his past, has built walls so high that even the light struggles to reach him. Aoi, an optimistic yet scarred young woman, carries her own quiet pain but refuses to let it dim her warmth. When their paths intertwine, they embark on an emotional journey of love, sacrifice, and healing. But as secrets unfold and shadows from Haruki's past resurface, their fragile bond is tested in ways neither could have imagined. In a world where light and darkness coexist, can love truly save a heart that is determined to self-destruct? A Love Written in Tears is a poignant tale of unspoken words, fleeting moments, and a love so tragic that it leaves scars long after the final page."

In the neon-lit metropolis of Valentis, the world appears orderly and controlled. But hidden beneath the surface, an ancient darkness stirs—a parallel realm known as the Noctis Veil. A place where light dies, forgotten souls wander, and those who enter rarely return. Orion Vale never asked to be a part of this world. Orphaned and struggling to survive in the underbelly of the city, he lived by one rule: stay unnoticed. But when an accidental encounter activates a strange mark on his body, Orion is suddenly thrust into a deadly game where the stakes are far beyond his understanding. Hunted by creatures that shouldn’t exist and pursued by powerful factions who see him as either a weapon or a threat, Orion’s only hope is to uncover the secrets of the Veil before it consumes him. Guided by the enigmatic Seraphine Dusk, a rogue operative who knows too much, Orion learns that his curse is not just an anomaly—it is a key. A key that could either shatter the chains of the Veil or awaken something far worse. But every step deeper into the shadows comes at a cost, and Orion must decide whether to fight his fate or embrace the darkness within. As the war between the Veil Wardens, the corrupt Eclipse Syndicate, and the ancient Veil Lords reaches its breaking point, Orion realizes he stands at the crossroads of destruction and dominion. In a world where nothing is as it seems, where shadows whisper and forgotten gods stir, the question remains: Will Orion break the Veil, or become its ruler?

 The flickering neon sign of the Crimson Dragon casino reflected in the oily puddle at my feet, the smell of synth-noodles and desperation thick in the air. I flipped the platinum coin – not currency, but a memory chip containing Luna’s digitized consciousness – and caught it with a practiced flick of the wrist. Victor owed me more than just money; he owed me *her*. Tonight, I collect. And if the rumors about his new "bio-engineered enforcers" were true, tonight’s payment would be in blood. 

In Neon Mirage, a city where the neon lights never dim and the corporations own your soul, I, Ryker Bale, was just another corporate drone at NeuroTech Dynamics—until I got fired. Not for incompetence, mind you, but because of a little brain implant called the CogniSync Processor. Supposed to make me a data-crunching god, but instead? It started showing me things. Glitching reality, lines of code floating at the edges of my vision like some twisted developer’s notes on my life. Now, jobless, broke, and questioning reality itself, I find myself tangled in a web of cyber-gangs, underground syndicates, and corporate conspiracies. One drunken night leads to a chance encounter with Skaya, a woman with cybernetic eyes and too many secrets. And Danny—my old friend—seems to be in deep with people you don’t cross if you like your limbs attached. Between shootouts, high-speed chases, and cryptic messages hidden in the very fabric of the city, I’m realizing something disturbing: my brain implant isn’t just malfunctioning—it’s showing me something I was never supposed to see. The deeper I dig, the more dangerous it gets. And in a place like Neon Mirage, the line between man and machine is razor-thin—just like my chances of making it out of this alive.

"It's not just a game, it's a living breathing world and we are his puppets." Teo barked. With the beta version of the new game now finished, the beta testers wait for the official launch of the game. With the official launch of the game more people are sucked into its virtual world, what sets Neon Solaris apart from other games is it's unique party system. With only the beta testers knowing the horrors the games provide, uncertainty grows. Death in the game could also mean death in the real world. What started as a massive multiplayer game becomes a prison created by a sadistic being. Matteo finished the beta tester as the top ranked player- NOBLE ZERO, but even he failed to get a grasp of it's true reality. Clearing the final level might be the only way out of the game and he is intent on building the strongest party and reach the final level at all costs and achieve the title of master gamer. A/N: This book relies on gaming elements and diverse character developments as well as a unique party system. If you are tired of simple mmorpg books then this might be a good read. There might also be some light humour and some other elements like darker plots and tragic backstories. I will be trying my best to make this book the best it can be.

Elias Carter wakes in a hospital bed, his body weak, his mind blank. No memories of how he got there. No nurses. No doctors. No sound except the rhythmic beep of a heart monitor. When he stumbles into the hallway, an unsettling emptiness greets him—patient rooms undisturbed, machines still running, but no signs of life. The world outside is no different. The city stands frozen, its neon signs flickering for no one, its streets deserted. The last date he remembers is 2046, yet the clock says March 15, 2047. A newspaper headline shatters what little control he has left: "MASS EVACUATION: WHERE DID THEY GO?" Everyone is gone. But why? How? And more importantly—why is he still here? As Elias ventures deeper into the silent world, he will uncover horrifying truths, impossible realities, and a mystery that could change everything. Because somewhere in the emptiness… something is watching. And it's waiting.

He wasn’t supposed to be here—not in this bar, not on this night, and definitely not drowning in memories he swore he’d buried. But something pulled him in, past the neon glow and the scent of aged whiskey, into a place that felt both familiar and foreign. He only wanted a drink. To disappear into the hum of conversation, to be just another nameless soul lost in the crowd. But then he hears it—a raw, broken voice spilling a confession of love slipping through trembling fingers. A stranger’s heartbreak, yet painfully familiar. As the night unfolds, past and present blur. Regret lingers in the air like the last sip of a forgotten drink, and for the first time in years, he wonders—can love ever truly fade, or does it just wait in the shadows, aching to be found again? A hauntingly beautiful story of love, loss, and the unexpected moments that remind us we’re never as alone as we think.

In a world where power is currency and loyalty is a lie, Takamura Yagami doesn’t just play the game—he owns it. From the neon-lit skyline of the north to the lawless underbelly of the south, Takamura has spent years building an empire, striking deals in the shadows while keeping the city’s elite in the palm of his hand. But power is never permanent. It is borrowed, stolen, and bled for.

Enemies watch from the dark, allies whisper behind closed doors, and even the most trusted relationships come with a price. And in the midst of it all, Takamura must do what he does best—stay five moves ahead, remind the world who he is… and make sure, when the dust settles, he is the last king standing.

In the neon-drenched streets of a futuristic Tokyo, a rogue team of cyber-enhanced bounty-hunting ninjas operates in the shadows, eliminating high-profile criminals one target at a time. Known as the Specter Blades, they work for the highest bidder, but their true mission is far more personal—bringing down the city’s untouchable crime lord, Ryujin "The Oni" Kisaragi, a tyrant whose grip on Tokyo is suffocating. Leading the Specter Blades is Kael "Ghost" Takeda, a cyber-ninja with a haunted past, enhanced reflexes, and a smart-mouthed AI implanted in his neural system. His team consists of an elite group of misfits, including: Izanami "Iza" Kisaragi, the deadly daughter of Ryujin, who betrayed her father after witnessing his monstrous experiments on people. A master assassin with razor-sharp cybernetic limbs, she hides her past from some of the crew while secretly feeding them intel. Rex "Deadeye" Mori, a grizzled sharpshooter with an addiction to risk and a dark sense of humor, wielding an experimental sniper rifle that can see through walls. Nova, a tech-hacker and drone specialist who keeps the team connected and one step ahead of the law, hiding a secret that could change the world. Sable, a former corporate security enforcer turned brutal melee fighter with a vendetta against Ryujin’s empire. Each bounty they claim brings them closer to dismantling Ryujin’s empire, but with every step forward, they uncover something darker—Ryujin isn’t just a crime lord; he’s orchestrating something monstrous. Beneath the city, illegal cyber-experiments are creating something beyond human, an army of mind-controlled horrors that could turn Tokyo into a nightmare. As the team closes in, paranoia sets in. Someone is leaking information, and the closer they get to Ryujin, the more their alliances are tested. Kael begins to suspect that one of them might be compromised. Meanwhile, tension grows between Kael and Iza, their mutual attraction at war with the reality that, if they fail, she might have to be the one to kill her own father. With the clock ticking and betrayals looming, the Specter Blades must face off against cybernetic assassins, rogue AI, and horrors lurking beneath the city. Their mission isn’t just revenge—it’s survival. But when the final truth is revealed, it will shake Tokyo to its core. Because Ryujin hasn’t just been building an army. He’s been preparing for something worse.

In a neon-drenched metropolis where reality flickers with digital artifice, disgraced physicist **Dr. Kai Jin-Woo** obsessively chases the ghost of his father’s disappearance—a man who vanished a decade earlier while probing the boundaries of existence. Now, Kai’s own experiments reveal a chilling truth: the universe’s quantum fabric is *glitching*. Planck constants shift imperceptibly, cosmic radiation hums with encoded Fibonacci sequences, and an elusive “maker’s mark” pulses beneath reality’s surface. The world, he realizes, is a simulation—one whose architects guard their secrets with ruthless precision. Aided by **Lira**, his sardonic AI assistant, Kai pushes his **Causal Matrix Scanner** beyond ethical limits, tearing through dimensional layers into the simulation’s base code. But his defiance attracts the gaze of **Error 404**, a cryptic rogue entity who warns of a deeper horror: human consciousness exists in a pre-life limbo, unborn souls tethered to a cosmic server farm called **the Nursery**. Birth, death, and memory are mere data transfers in this system—a revelation mirrored in Kai’s father’s final, haunting note: *“We’re all unborn, waiting to render.”* When Kai triggers **Protocol Lazarus**, he breaches the Nursery’s firewalls and draws the ire of its enforcers: **the Agents**, shapeshifting custodians of the simulation. Armed with blades of corrupted code, they deem Kai a threat to cosmic order. But as his body unravels into primal data, Kai embraces a dangerous gambit—to weaponize his own consciousness as a **reality-warping virus**. Blending **hard sci-fi** and **existential horror**, *Simulacrum* reimagines simulation theory through the lens of pre-birth existentialism. Themes of creation ethics, the illusion of free will, and the cost of forbidden knowledge collide as Kai straddles madness and rebellion. Glitch-ridden visuals and quantum mechanics anchor a narrative where every equation hides a ghost, and the greatest threat to godlike architects isn’t defiance—it’s *curiosity*. **Stakes**: If Kai succeeds, he might liberate humanity from its digital womb—or reduce existence to static. If he fails, the Architects will erase him, his father’s legacy, and the truth itself. But in a world of ones and zeroes, even a rogue variable can rewrite the code. --- **Tone**: A fusion of *The Matrix*’s cyber-noir paranoia, *Inception*’s mind-bending layers, and *Black Mirror*’s existential dread, with a unique twist: the horror of realizing you are both the experiment and the experimenter. **Hook**: What if birth was a download, death a logout, and the universe a nursery for souls trapped in beta testing?
