As space is explored, new lifeforms were found and all joined together with new technology to create a massive space city intertwining planets in the galaxy; seems impossible, right? If you thought so then you are wrong. The city is combined using a metal that lets gravity go through it to planets to keep them in place and have suns to collect heat energy from and have a growing fuel for all machinery. Sounds amazing, right? Wrong again, unless you are one who is rich and get to live up there. I live down in the ruins of earth, where we risk death every day and are hated by the city above us. Our people must hide every time troops go down because the agreement with all the life above our heads has slavery, they take people from below to serve the rich. resistances have started, but were quickly silenced; for all these reasons, I must escape from bellow.

The Shelter
No one really knew how X's came to be. One day there weren't any, the next day half the population was wiped out. All Karma knew was that they are technological monsters, fit to be the world's biggest weapon, after the splitting particle ray which could reduce any person into air particles in a millisecond. Karma realised how simple it would be to destroy an army even with one X. They were practically indestructible, perfect killing machines, only they'd turned on the government, apparently. Or maybe those bastards had escaped perfectly unharmed, watching how the country was being destroyed. Maybe it was an excuse for overpopulation. xx-xx Karma has been trying to survive for over a year, but it's difficult when X's, mechanical killing machines, roam the streets, hungry for human flesh. Every day that passes by without finding a portal brings the morale lower. They need to escape the country before they all end up dead. It doesn't help that the X's have changed their tactics and are now manipulating people to commit suicide. The death rate keeps increasing, and Karma has to find out what family means, and to what extremes she would go to save the ones she loves.Complete
First to Rise (Excerpt)
The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through inkitt or galatea!!!) (some read events may apply) (check update chapter for more details!) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!)

Andromeda: The Last Descendants
Survival in space was our only option. The dying earth and its sickly inhabitants forced us to flee to the stars. My father, the commander of the elite group chosen to live amongst the stars, brought me along for the journey. And everything was going smoothly until I unexpectedly woke up on a new planet, one with an ethereal glow and an eerie resemblance to our old home as the commander of the military space force, my father tasked his men with exploring this new world. But what they discovered was far from welcoming. This new planet was already inhabited by terrifying creatures, and they were not happy with our presence. His men fought to survive against these beasts, I couldn't help but wonder why they were so hostile towards us. That's when one of them approached me, defying everything we had been warned about. Instead of attacking, it watched me pick flowers before later saving me from a fiery blast. Now it's my turn to save him. Please read the prologue in the beginning before going to Chapter 1. I know a lot of people skip Prologues, however, it has important information that will give you a better understanding of what's going on in other chapters. Feel free to comment and vote. Its makes my day better seeing you enjoy this book as much as I enjoy writing it. #1 Colony - 11/17 #1 Invading - 11/17 #1 Colonization- 12/29 #1 Spacestation- 4/8 #1 Spacecraft- 6/18 #1 Space travel- 1/22
Who is the Alien now?
Aliens are real. They infested Earth in hope to find their "mate". They call themself the Matters. ************************************************************************************************* "I'm sitting, just sitting. I don't breathe. How could I breathe when I know they can hear every sound I make, even the slightest one? They, I mean the Aliens, don't have a name. We didn't give them one because it would mean we care about them: the last thing we want is getting to know them. I mean who would want to? Despite our obvious resentment, they told us how they were called: the Matters." A special thanks to @Stup3f1X for the cover!!!!! #1 in AlienComplete
The Everything: Integration (Sci-Fi Alien Invasion? Story)
Earth, our home. But... something is wrong. As the nature of reality makes itself known, watch earth react, and change, with fear, hate, progress, and love. To the grand events the universe has in store for earth. As the world changes, as the universe revivals aliens exist, but not the world ending kind. As humanity realizes... perhaps the universe is too good for us. --- A story within The Everything canon, a foundation to it. This is a passion project, and I'm still developing my writing style, so feedback is welcome! If you create fan art, I'd be happy to include it (with credit). I am not willing to pay for art, or new covers at this time. The current cover may replace if I get something better. Contact Me: https://discord.gg/6nWpaDNKhY
ARCHIVE-XC9: TERRA
For centuries, humanity believed itself to be alone in the universe. The stars were distant, silent, and indifferent until the silence was broken. When a deep-space exploration vessel, UFS Pioneer, was attacked by unknown hostiles when they arrived to Alpha Centauri B. Two decades later, another deep-space exploration vessel, but this time unmanned and armed, arrived at Alpha Centauri B and makes an unprecedented discovery, an unknown civilization with human DNA identical to their own, everything humanity thought they knew about their origins is shattered. As star-faring nations scramble to unravel the mystery, tensions rise, alliances fracture, and the race to uncover the truth begins. But in the depths of the cosmos, beyond the reach of human understanding, something stirs. Ancient ruins whisper of lost empires. Unseen forces bend the very fabric of reality. And lurking in the void, an enemy waits-an anomaly so vast, so consuming, that it threatens to unravel existence itself. As humanity ventures further into the unknown, one question echoes through the corridors of power, the minds of scientists, and the whispers of those who dare to seek the truth: "If we are not alone... then what exactly are we?"
Ace in the Hole
It is the 33rd century, war still rages endlessly, and amongst the stars humanity remains fractured. The Galactic Empire, forged on the carcass of the old Republic, persists with its conquest for complete and unparalleled domination over the vast reaches of the cosmos, and to purge that which they see unfit as they spread their perversion of what the Republic once stood for. While independent rebel forces with their minuscule manpower each push back against The Emperor's cruel regime with all their might, they suffer tremendous casualties and are executed with exceptional cruelty. This new spark of a Galactic Civil War has already lit a fire too big to quell now, and will only get stronger. The Empire already has torn apart countless star systems, the inhabitants either joining the untold billions of the Empire, or being crushed under their heel. To be a man in such times is to live in fear, fear of the unchanging cruelty from the Emperor's iron fist, fear of stepping out of line. There is little hope in the midst of the scent of death and the cruel laughter of Imperial Officers, yet many hold on. Meanwhile in a distant and quiet forest of Kashyyyk, unscorched by blaster fire, a surviving Jedi and her family resides. Soon however, that will change, as the Empire has located the family. A young child known as Rosetta Carmine, child of the hunted Jedi, resides in a shack in a Wookie village unaware of how drastically this day will change the trajectory of her life, and the galaxy as a whole. Act 1 is very heavily influenced by The Force Unleashed 1 Act 2 is still in development (Descriptions will be updated as more is written, there will also be a lot of revisions bc I'm always changing shit so my apologies for that. Everything in this story is subject to change)
Build A Scientific And Technological Civilization ( Book 1 )
In a universe where every person awakens a Planet as the foundation of their power, the strength of one's civilization determines their might. From martial worlds where warriors reign, to mystic realms teeming with magic, to ethereal domains of immortal cultivators, every awakened Planet becomes a reflection of its creator's path. But Alexander Sebastian is different. Reborn with memories from a modern, Earth-like world, he forges something never seen before: a Technological Civilization. While others summon Qi, Mana, or Spiritual Power, Sebastian builds factories, launches satellites, and commands fleets of starships. With logic as his weapon and science as his foundation, Sebastian begins to shake the very foundations of this Supernatural cosmos. When a Star Destroyer punches through planets and dimensional weapons turn worlds into nothing more than paper, even the proudest civilizations must bow before the cold, unrelenting force of progress. Witness a tale where science defies fantasy, and technology becomes the ultimate path to dominance. _____ This is a translation.
