[ 1 ] In the future the world has expanded to other planets but the main hub is still on Earth; however, prisons are not. No matter the crime you are convicted of or how old you are, you get sent to an outpost far in the galaxy. This planet is still in the process of being "cultivated" and slave labor is always fun, especially outside of the jurisdiction of the newly combined world government.

[ 2 ] Vampires are creatures of habit, and ages old tradition. It's what got them this far and most of them think that their antiquated rules and ceremonies will continue to suffice. However, when the leader of the North American (can change) coven (or house, depending on your fiction) is killed with no heir apparent, it's plunged into chaos as his most powerful advisers vie for his empty seat. While that was going on, a sect of younger vampires, intent on shaking up the dusty system, rebels. More chaos to add to the mix. Intent to stop it before all hell really breaks loose, a vampire/vampiress finds that their leader does, in fact, have a living blood relative--living being the operative word. A great, great, great, great grandson/daughter is living not terribly far from the main house--fate? Will the vampire hunt this relative down and convince them to take over? Will vampires follow a human, or even such a new vampire?

[ 3 ] In a state much like Africa, but in 2035, the world has reverted. There is not much technology, and women do not have many rights at all, and are considered wastes of life. Life is not harsh but very criticizing in many ways. If you fall out of an order you are dealt with by the law personally. A prodigy in science, Dr. ___ works constantly on making the world a better place. If something can be done, he is the man to go to. Well one night he went out walking, and when he got back, there was a child ( teen maybe) looking in his workshop window. He went to see whom it was but made a sudden noise, and when the child turned around it happened to be a girl who ran quickly as possible. After a week or so of this happening the doctor finally caught the girl, and after a long talk, she told him how she admired his work and how she truly liked science. The man had an idea pop into his head, he would make this child his apprentice. So he started to teach her basics and what not, and started getting attention from the law. What would happen to their lives? Would there be consequences? Would women get freedom?

When you turned eighteen, the circus was still on your mind, and it was getting close to when the orphanage would give you up, and you'd live on the streets.

[ 9 ] A flash from a small screen appears when you turn on the TV. You are a regular American for doing so. As you go to change the channel from the news, something catches your eye: an article on Sliver of Sanity, one of the newest bands that has sold so successfully over this week alone. Your eyes stay glued to the screen as the announcer goes into picture and starts talking;
"The amazing band that has the world on their door step, is having an enormous get together at Central Park for their first stop in their world tour three nights from tonight. There is an expected half a million people to come. The tickets will be sold for five dollars, thanks to the band members themselves. This concert is a tester to see how well they can truly handle a crowd, or so they say.
Though there is one really amazing thing, the band and their manager are having a drawing. This prize pack is for three lucky winners that will be able to spend a day, which will be the day of the concert. The tickets are still up for grabs, and they are five dollars each. If you wish to buy some over the phone, have your credit card ready and call this number, 1-800-973-4245." The first reporter said speaking like a robot into the TV camera as he stood where the band would play soon.
"Isn't it just amazing how these newbie's made a jump from being new singers, to professionals in just a month? Even my kids love them, and their music, simply captivating. Let's see other opinions on Sliver of Sanity." The second reporter said as he rushed to people who were willing on the streets. Not one bad remark was made, from child to elderly.
You look at the TV as the news goes to another article, hitting the button off; you grab your credit card, and dial the number.

[ 10 ] The street of America was never safe. With technology it became worse. Nothing was holding back the gangs or the mafias, nor was anyone willing to stop them. People of the underworld grew with power, though many households fought to be on top. After a war named Wars of the Hells, for the immense blood shed and slaughter done, two predominate households gained the most power and more people to join them. They were known as the Banishers and the Ancients. Both were two very different underworld divisions.
The Banishers, view people as weapons for their brute force. Wanting only to kill, and most of the time have no strategy to go along with their fighting. They train hard, using every tactic available to make one withstand pain and in a sense no be affected by it. Their training is tough, but when you pass it, it proves that you are dedicated; since most people die. Men tend to rule more in this mafia.
The Ancients, view people as weapons for their intelligence. They prefer power of intimidation, reverse psychology, and strategies. They are required to be street, book, and overall smart, but they must be talented in the art of war as well. They train people to use their brain power, and never to second guess themselves. Less people die through training, but more die from not following rules. Women tend to rule more in this mafia.
What both of these underworld powers have in common is that all will follow the rules of the leader. No one dares to talk back, for severe punishments are given if so. Both is feared by the public and is the cause for stricter curfews. How will this war end, in a peace treaty or in a murderous downfall?

[ 11 ] It was believed that some people from around the area of Egypt were nomads, and they traveled up to China (and it was believed that they crossed the land bridge, into North America; that is why all pyramids have similarities.) So how about a group goes from Egypt (area) to China (area) but doesn't like it, and heads back, but for some reason (maybe a path block) they cannot get back, and settle upon a river and make their own home. The culture of both areas will be mixed, for instance they believe in the afterlife, but the ancestors have the ability to come back and watch over them, or continue on their journey. They are really into festivals (where they can do offerings and more), and they have something similar to a monarchy (Egyptians had pharaohs and Japanese had a Dynasty ruler- where a family had power.)

[ 12 ] One day a man/woman went up to a really famous writer telling him/her that his/her story was nothing more than copied ideas from other writers and fluff. The author showed no signs of emotions, apparently how he/she always was, which angered the man/woman even more. That night/the next morning the man/woman went to the library to see the book that the author had written, he/she picked it up and was going to rip it up, but instead there was a light coming from it. He/she was not longer it in library, but _____ (Terrain we choose).
