Everything collides in the end. Clear blue waters of the river trickled every so quietly as pink flowers bloomed in the lively meadow. Life itself was beautiful. People thrived and nature decorated the living soul. But not everything remained beautiful. The humans became corrupt, pollution killed much of the gorgeous nature and life slowly drained from the Earth. In an attempt to save Her creation, Mother Nature absorbed the pollution, all the bad that had begun to taint her world, only to find that it changed her. She found herself furious, angry at the humans for damaging such a beautiful creation, something she had worked so hard to make. So, instead of keeping all the absorbed Toxins within, she threw it back at the humans. She would start over. She would make something beautiful. Instead, she created something twisted. She created the Shadowfall.

Imagine, after generations of constant pollution and a nuclear holocaust, that life on Earth was slowly dying out. Life will soon cease to exist due to toxins in the air, destroying the human body from the inside out. Imagine a dystopian world where the earth is sick due to human destruction and overdevelopment. Imagine the last of us just barely breathing on.

With his young husband on his death bed, Grey struggles just to feed his daughter let alone himself. As he carries out his day to day work, the love his life remains terminally ill bed bound in the hospital. This is a short story of a dying world and a young man pushing on. -short story- All Rights Reserved to Transgender_psycho

One sun, one planet, one people. Welcome the fourth International Edition of Tevun-Krus, where you can find excellent sci-fi in all sorts of non-English languages! (Don't worry, there's some English, too!) This time around, we tackle the little-known eco-sci-fi sub-genre known as SolarPunk.

The following story grew out of a conversation that took place on a semi-sunny day in Atlanta, at Morehouse College, many years ago. We'd just gotten out of philosophy class, and were discussing the nature of reality on the quad. At some point in the discussion, a friend of mine said to me, "How do you know if we're real?" At the time, I had no answer. But the question stayed with me. Well? ARE we real? Joe Greegan, out for a walk on the beach with his dog, is about to find out...

Generations ago a fire blazed across the world, consuming almost everything it its path, leaving the world in a broken state. Leader from every country gathered for a solution and their solution was the moon. It would be a voluntary system, those who whished to stay and those who wish to leave, and soon peace was found on both worlds. But the Earth is dying, those who stayed consumed it's natural resources and are now looking for an escape. Those living on the moon refuse to allow them to come up, saying it will destroy the world they worked so hard to create, creating conflict and fire again. Elyse was born on the moon, growing up in the farmer district in peace, not knowing the heat of the fire from generations ago. She hopes to not only save her people, but those on Earth itself. But how could she succeed when she's only a farmer girl?

*The sky was pouring rain all over the city, washing the giant skyscrapers into grey rust.A sign nearby one of the skyscrapers said "Keep out!Acid rain every night. Make sure to bring your metallic umbrellas!".Inside one of the sky crapers, was a teenage boy, working with something on his laptop, totally unaware of the rain or anything that'll distract him*

Earth's Dying, 'troopers! So what better way to see in the end than alongside your favourite Tevun-Krus writers?!

"This world changed in just a few minutes. . ., but most importantly, WE changed." I just won the bingo and became the unluckiest person on earth. How? Well, that I don't know either, but what I do know is that I'll gladly return the favor when I find the one responsible for the destruction of my world. I've been chosen to Save the universe. How again? You may ask, all I need to do is to find "The Amethyst". Easy right..., and I got to say the universe made a big mistake choosing me because I'm the last person on earth who'd be able to pull this off. So, will I die in the progress? Probably. Do I really care anymore? No. Nothing is as it seems with power lurking in the dark, and secrets coming into the light.

Bronwen must choose between saving a cruel and broken world, or being happy. She is tormented by the momentous decision that has been thrust upon her. But what is really worth giving up your own happiness for?

Our world is dying. Many years ago, after the war broke out, Earth became un-inhabitable. So the only solution was to place the survivors in a dome, cut off from the rest of the world. In this dome we created a new form of civilization. Our new world was nothing but a small portion of the Earth. The rest of the world have become nothing but toxic waste. Long ago before my birth, the government grew afraid of how our species would survive. In their desperation to find a way to live outside of the dome, they decided to experiment with fetuses without the knowledge of its mother and father. In the last two decade, the scientists have conducted experiments that mutated the child's genes. This experiment was done on at least a hundred unborn baby's. When the first mutated child was born, they exposed it to the outside air. It wasn't long after that it died. Afraid that the people would find out, they decided to stop the experiment swearing by secrecy to never tell the populous. However, just as it is with everything in this world, some secrets were never meant to stay hidden. ____________________________ THIS BOOK IS MINE AND ANYONE WHO TRIES TO COPY IT OR WRITE IT IN ANY FORM THAT IS ANYWHERE THE SAME AS MINE WILL BE REPORTED!

Halcyon: "Denoting a period of time in the past that was idyllically happy & peaceful." Earth doesn't last forever, reality doesn't last forever. But technology does, the virtual life - the perfect life - lasts for all eternity. Axperian is here to help, to offer solace, a second chance to flee the crumbling reality. They offer peace, stability, longevity, happiness beyond what anyone thought they could expect to find within the virtual realm. Halcyon is there as a home, a city buzzing with life and prosperity. All Axperian asks is to forget reality, forget the period of time that wasn't idyllic, that wasn't happy. And if you say no, if you eventually come to see, if you become paranoid about the true reality - it's the void you'll meet. So, won't you come and enter the Halcyon Station, the gateway to happiness? Please, stay and live the virtual life, the perfect life. Cover photo by https://unsplash.com/@efekurnaz
