I said i wasn't going to come back for a while, but i tried writing and i have too many stresses at the back of my mind that makes writing very tedious for me. Thankfully i know one thing know, my writing skills have grown (i feel so anyway). So there is that.
But about the story i am doing, i will give out the story in the vague manner.
The protagonist is a normal human in a future where humanity has evolved into cyborgs, they hate pure-humans (later revealed its due to a conspiracy) and its similar to the apartheid in africa. The protagonist is about to lose his place of residence due to not paying his rent, and has to turn to a crimelord in order to earn money. He gets his money after completing a job, as well as a cybernetic implant which increases his reflexes (this is his "specialness" that most protagonists have), after awakening from a six month recovery in stasis, he awakens to find the whole city is deserted and alien beasts roam, harvesting humans for at this time unknown purposes. The protagonist escapes the city with the crimelord and his uncle (both survived the initial onslaught...i am kinda tired as i type this out) and his uncle is killed by the crimelord due to the crimelord seeing him as a burden. The protagonist fights back, and is incapacitated by the crimelord's henchemen. Left for dead, he is later found by survivors and then at this point sets out on a journey across the land, to kill the crimelord and later encounters the creature behind the invasion.
This is rather vague, clearly not really as detailed as i usually am (i am tired right now). But this initial premise, is this rather original for an alien invasion story? I don't know of any that have a personal story intertwined with a story about alien creatures invading. Also it is set in the future with cyberpunk elements.
It is adventure and action orientated, with action scenes kept brief and certain sections have more action than others. It starts off tricking you into thinking it's yet another futuristic sci-fi about a crappy society, then it turns into an alien invasion story with an adventure storyline thats similar to a character's journey in a fantasy novel.
