For centuries, humanity battled its own demons-war, destruction, the ever-present shadow of extinction. But against all odds, it endured. Nations united, wounds healed, and a single banner rose above the entire Earth: United Earth Government and later the United Federation of Planets. By the year 2288, humanity had transformed from a fractured species into a galactic civilization. The Federation stretched across the stars, its influence reaching every corner of the Milky Way. It was an era of peace, progress, and unmatched technological triumph. And yet... they were alone. No matter how far their ships traveled or how many worlds they surveyed, there was no sign of other intelligent life. The universe vast, ancient, and beautiful remained eerily silent. Theories once whispered in academic circles, the "Great Filter," the "Rare Earth" now loomed large and terrifying. Was intelligence a cosmic accident? Was humanity the only one to make it this far? Then, everything changed. On the eve of humanity's historic voyage to Andromeda (M31). As their science vessel prepared for its journey across 2.6 million light years, something unprecedented occurred. In a flash, space itself seemed to twist and fold, as the Milky Way merged with another galaxy in instant, one far larger and older than their own. Now, in this strange, limitless frontier, humanity's greatest adventure was only just beginning. Would they adapt and survive, or uncover something beyond their wildest understanding? Only time would reveal the truth... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Heavily influenced by Nihonkoku Shoukan by Minorou, Anime GATE and various nation summoned novels here in wattpad.

Nova Jone's life changed dramatically upon discovery that she was the long-lost daughter of notorious pirate, Dahjlonica, and the former delinquent orphan became a pirate princess. She and her father made a profitable living raiding shipments between worlds, especially from the Hahn family, the most ruthless of warlords that rose after the Sol Commonwealth abandoned the Orion Outlands and consolidated within the inner worlds. Nova had a high price on her head. And as if that wasn't enough, the Commonwealth were coming back to reclaim the Outlands, and they had little regard for piracy. Elite Ranger Jake Barton led the way, with orders to eliminate Nova Jones. But as he tracked Nova, doubts grew in his mind. Who was the true villain?

When no one knows you're alive, its liberating and confining. It's one of the best things that can happen to you, especially if you're a villain! You can be someone else, live the life you never could, do the things you only dreamt of! You would think, at least. However, the best thing you can do is start over new and embrace anonymity, new horizons, more opportunity. Until, that is, the holder of the lien on your life cold calls you home -- now what? Act like you didn't get the call? Take a third shot at redemption? Or better yet -- do something bold and reclaim your life? Only if you've got the guts to own it - but you just may end up dead, for real this time. The Deets: * once weekly chapter drops * no profanity, no graphic sex/violence scenes * this a basically book one of a series I'm working on so expect more! ~~~And btw the pics shown here all came from Pinterest ~~~ * although the story is showing up here serialized - I actually didn't/am not writing it as a serialized story, in the event a chapter feels chopped off. Each named section is one whole actual chapter that's split up to show up once a week here 👌

Cort Gibson can't remember the moment everything went wrong. He only remembers walking out of the Skyfall tunnels, burned and blood-soaked, carrying a dying man, smiling like it was the best day of his life. After that: blank space. A court-martial cleared him. Rumors say he got his team killed and murdered the hostages. Cort doesn't know which is true-and that terrifies him. Because Cort isn't suffering ordinary trauma. Prometheus-an illegal quantum genetic program-started a transformation inside him called the twining, where a new strand of DNA is slowly added to the human helix. And with that change came Van Gogh: a warrior-entity from the quantum realm that speaks inside Cort's head with calm precision, describing death like art. Van Gogh is not a hallucination. It is protection. It protected Cort on Skyfall. Everyone else paid the price. Now Cort hides aboard the Zephyr, an interstellar cargo ship bound for Atlantis, trying to outrun the scientists who need him back-alive before their secret surfaces. But sabotage kills the Zephyr's warp drive, pirates close in, and hijackers strike from within. To buy time, Cort takes command of a state-of-the-art sentient gunship called Gunny and crews it with a Katurin pilot, an android engineer, and a Neo Cat who refuses to be left behind. Cort has fought wars before, but this time the battle is inside him.

Samara is a Justicar-an ancient Asari warrior bound by a monastic Code that demands the blood of the wicked and the protection of the innocent. When a biotic anomaly rips her from the Milky Way and drops her into the vibrant, lethal wilds of Pandora, she finds herself a "Sky-Demon" in a world that speaks in songs she cannot hear. Neytiri is the fierce future Tsahìk of the Omatikaya, a daughter of the forest who has seen her home burned by those who fall from the stars. When she discovers this strange, blue-skinned warrior, her first instinct is to kill. But Samara does not fight like the RDA; she fights with a terrifying, disciplined light and a sense of honor that even the Great Mother, Eywa, seems to recognize. As the RDA escalates its war to strip Pandora of its soul, the two warriors are forced into a wary alliance. What begins as a clash of cultures-Samara's iron discipline versus Neytiri's primal passion-transforms into a slow-burn romance that defies the laws of both their worlds. From high-stakes guerrilla warfare and biotic-infused aerial dogfights to a deep, spiritual bond that bridges the stars, Samara must decide: can she uphold her ancient Vow while surrendering her heart to the Song of Pandora?

== She was never meant to be a fleet commander. == But even on Earth, Svenja Kroenke could see the patterns others missed - in robotics, in war games, in the quiet math of movement. She didn't dream of battle. But battle found her anyway. Then, without warning, she was extracted - not by a government, but by a mysterious Order older than the Jedi - and thrown into a galaxy not only far, far away... but thousands of years in the past. Now, in a time of starships and empires, Svenja must adapt. Not with weapons, but with systems. With logic. With empathy. And with a mind sharp enough to challenge the Empire's greatest tactician: *Grand Admiral Thrawn*. But there's a catch: *She cannot return home - not to her world, not to her time - until Thrawn is gone.* As the New Republic falters and old enemies rise, Svenja rises too - from student to strategist, from exile to admiral. But beneath the uniform lies a woman who still dreams of gardens, poetry, and the man she left behind. This is not just a war story. It's a story of exile, resilience, and the quiet power of coherence. And maybe - just maybe - of finding your way home. It is not written for readers seeking fast-paced action (although there is some), personal heroics, clear moral binaries, or emotionally comforting resolutions; it assumes patience, tolerance for ambiguity, and interest in ethical complexity over narrative gratification.

The war is over. The Reapers are gone. But for Commander Jane Shepard, the battle for her soul has just begun. In the final moments of the Reaper War, the legendary "Butcher of Torfan" made the ultimate choice.

But the feedback from the Destroy pulse didn't just kill the Reapers-it shattered Shepard's mind. Buried under the rubble of the Citadel, Shepard survived.

As Shepard's memories begin to return in jagged, terrifying flashes, she must reckon with her "Renegade" past through the eyes of the child she has become. Can the woman who broke the galaxy find redemption in the silence of its aftermath? Or will the "Red Death" wake up and realize that some sins can never be washed away?

Intended to break her will, the creature instead finds something it has never known: an equal. As the Venom symbiote bonds with Leia, their clash of minds for control evolves into trust, loyalty, and a dangerous, intimate connection that transforms the Rebel princess into something far more feared than the Empire anticipated. Hunted through the Death Star's cold corridors, Leia and Venom forge an unbreakable partnership, blending her unyielding hope with its ruthless power.

Set against the events of A New Hope, this crossover romance reimagines Star Wars through a darker, more intimate lens-where rebellion is fueled not only by blasters and the Force, but by an alien bond that promises both salvation and damnation.

His search for truth will lead him toward a revelation that could unmake the Federation itself. Guardian of the Wolf is a tale of duty and defiance, where humanity's greatest creation remembers what its makers have forgotten, and guards, still, the fading light of the human soul.

2559, during the Banished ambush over Zeta Halo, the battered UNSC Infinity-class supercarrier makes a desperate, malfunctioning slipspace jump to evade destruction. The experimental Forerunner-enhanced drive rips a rift through realities, hurling the ship to an alternate Earth devastated by nuclear apocalypse in 2077. Emerging in 2281 over the Mojave Wasteland, the Infinity crash-lands amid the ruins of Las Vegas, its hull scarring the desert near Hoover Dam. Aboard are ~17,000 survivors: Spartans, Marines, ODSTs, scientists, and the ship's AI Roland (damaged but operational). Simultaneously, in Goodsprings, the female Courier awakens after Benny's betrayal, embarking on her quest for the Platinum Chip-a device that could upgrade Mr. House's Securitron army and tip the balance of power at Hoover Dam. The Infinity's arrival shatters the Mojave's fragile stalemate: NCR, Caesar's Legion, House, and minor factions like the Boomers, Brotherhood of Steel, and Great Khans react to this "star-fallen fortress" and its godlike tech. The Courier, drawn by rumors of "metal gods from the sky," intersects with UNSC survivors, forging an alliance that could reshape the wasteland-or doom it if the Infinity's Forerunner artifacts awaken ancient horrors.
