A collection of science fiction short stories written for Smackdowns or inclusion in Tevun-Krus, Oorah's monthly sci-fi e-zine. I just wanted to let you guys have access to them, since most of these stories end up in some contest anthology somewhere, getting dusty. Hope you enjoy them. If you see text high-lighted, that was done deliberately for the sake of a contest.All Rights Reserved

SmackDown: Back to Our Roots by LayethTheSmackDown

Our previous two SmackDowns were both massive successes, and it's high time for another. You might remember the last one was heavy on the "game" elements, maybe even too heavy. This time we're going back to the basics and keeping it simple. It's just a motherfuckin' sci-fi SmackDown: a heated writing contest where contestants are given text-, music- and visual-based prompts, and then they need to write a short story around that, following which they're judged for their efforts and either move on to the next round or they get eliminated from the competition. But there's gotta be some kind of twist, right? For this one we're waxing nostalgic, we're looking back into our past. We're going back to our roots.

A Story By Chance by Nerak-Xeray

This is a collection of short stories based in a futuristic world, as I wanted to try out something new. It's a mix of fantasy and sci-fi and I have no clue where this is going, for I am just improvising along the way depending on the images I get.

Short stories for the SciFi Showdown

The Vengeance Trilogy. by StevenBarberWriter

A trilogy of military hard SciFi short stories, each of which stands on its own but is linked to the earlier parts. Part 1 is my attempt at writing what a battle in space might really be like. Part 2 is - well, as a student of military history, I was struck by how some things in the military life have seemed to be constant over the centuries. Part 3 is the result of trying to imagine what an infantry fire-fight might be like in the 22nd century or beyond. How does technology play into it?

Sweet Dreams by Evatastic55

A collection of short stories and mini stories including genres like sci-fi, fantasy, horror, action, and much more.

TK Special #7 - Return to the M'Verse: An Ooorah Anthology by Ooorah

Each of the stories featured herein is set within a Universe of the writer's creation, while all being a part of a larger, shared Multiverse. At the Ooorah Mothership, we call this the M'Verse. Writers have free rein to tell the story they want to tell, providing it's sci-fi in nature and no more than 5000 words in length... then it's all good! There are, however, five "rules" to which all created Universes within the shared Multiverse must adhere. Think of them as non-mandatory prompts that weave an invisible, unbreakable web throughout this anthology. But that shouldn't prove too difficult for the writers partaking... It's time to RETURN TO THE M'VERSE.

A Special Story for myself and you I guess by sweetsrsour2

I know I make a few Smite stories and never seem to finish them. But this time I want to write another one just for me and you can read it too if you want.
