Aether Protocol

Leon_Dran
A Cyberpunk Magic Revolution In the year 2046, the world runs on Aether—programmable dark matter energy channeled through corporate-controlled smartdevices called Conduits. Magic is licensed, spells are subscription-based, and unauthorized glyph-coding is a crime punishable by neural scrubbing. Lucent Argyr, a debt-ridden underground fighter with a talent for stealing codes, stumbles upon a forbidden truth: the original Aether code was never meant to be caged. Hunted by corporate's private army, courted by the hacker collective GhostKey, and tormented by visions of a deeper conspiracy, Lucent must decide whether to: Sell his power to the highest bidder Burn the system to the ground Or unravel the darkest secret of all... With his modified Conduit overheating and his borrowed glyphs, Lucent’s final fight won’t be in the arena—but against the gods of the new world.

HP: The Midnight King

Synopsis: For Justin Russo, life on Waverly Place had always been predictable—filled with family, magic, and the occasional mischief from his sisters, Alex and Maxine. But when a dream feels too vivid to ignore, it unearths memories of a past life long forgotten. As reality begins to unravel, buried secrets rise to the surface, bringing more questions than answers. Now, Justin must navigate a world where the past and present collide. Can he hold onto the peaceful life he's built, or will the sinister forces lurking in the shadows drag him toward a fate darker than he ever imagined? Plot-Driven Fic with a Touch of Wish-Fulfillment. A crossover featuring Harry Potter, Wizards of Waverly Place, Twilight, Shadowhunters, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, and Seraph of the end. Some elements of other works might be present. Important Note: Before diving in, I highly recommend reading the Author POV chapter first. It will help you decide whether this story is for you. Also, be aware that the Gore tag is not for mere shock value—it serves a purpose in fully realizing the scope of the fic. Some descriptions may be unsettling, but if you're uncomfortable reading it, just imagine what it’s like for me writing it. This is a fanfiction, meaning all credit goes to the original authors. This work is purely fictional—any resemblance to real people, places, or events is purely coincidental. I also do not claim ownership of the cover photo. Expect some plot holes and grammatical errors—I'm not a professional writer, but I will do my best to fix any issues as I go. My ultimate goal, once I get into a steady rhythm, is to release at least three chapters per week—though no promises!
