The far future. Earth became inhospitable, with the climate ravaged and disease and famine spread worldwide. After the oceans rose, the people of Earth sent a massive ship out into the stars to find a new home. Dubbed Ark One, it is mankind's greatest accomplishment, a veritable living planet housing ten thousand people both living and cryogenically frozen.

When a single man is woken up with no memory of who he is or how he came to be on the ship, it sets off a chain of horrific events that may threaten the very future of Ark One, along with every living being unlucky enough to be a passenger.

We Are Grounders by chloepwright

Earth. It was the final destination for the citizens of the Ark, 100 years after the nuclear bombs that wiped out human civilisation and swamped the planet with radiation. But the Ark is dying. A fault in the system means that they won't last another three years without running out of oxygen. Sent to the ground, 100 expendable delinquents were to see if it was survivable. It was a suicide mission. A death sentence. But it was found that the ground wasn't consumed by radiation. Rather there was a different threat to those teenagers. A threat that was more ruthless and cunning. One that wanted war... They know that they will have to stick together. That they will be tested by the Earth and the secrets that it hides. And one girl, with secrets of her own, has enough determination to not only survive, but thrive. *** I do not own any part of The 100 tv series or book series, only my characters. This is based off of The 100 tv series and I have taken inspiration from it to create my own story.

Everything is unfamiliar to a girl who wakes up in a cryo-pod on a Starship hurtling through space - with no memory of who she is, or how she ended up there. She soon finds out that she has friends as well as enemies in this place, and has to grapple with a life history that she doesn't feel belongs to her. She doesn't know why she hated a certain man before, when she feels drawn to him in some way. Something about him makes her feel like the person she used to be might have had him all wrong. .. When Kane sees Videl come out of cryo-sleep earlier than planned, something doesn't sit right with him. She wasn't glaring at him like she could rip his throat out, and it seems like something is wrong with her. He shouldn't care. Would she have cared if something was wrong with him? She would probably be cheering for something bad to happen to him. But the lost, confused look in her eyes is so uncharacteristic, he decides that he's going to get to the bottom of it.

The Heartless Void by empiresofwater

In the distant future, Earth's resources have been plundered and deep-space oil haulers have become the backbone of the solar system's many stations. Henry Starbuck is the first mate onboard such a vessel, the Pequod. He only wants to finish the season and return home to his husband and son. But the captain of the Pequod, Ahab, is a man obsessed with hunting down the vessel which took so much from him. There are legends of his quarry, Moby-Dick: talk from spacefaring astronauts that the ship, shaped like the extinct whales of old, is no longer crewed and is run entirely off a rogue AI programme. Many lives have been lost to it. Starbuck has to confront the terror of space and the awful mania of his captain, all the while dealing with a past which will never leave him alone. He wishes desperately to do what is right. The farthest galaxies are heartless, but no more cruel than the horror that exists inside man. [a sci fi adaptation novella of Herman Melville's Moby-Dick - but no previous knowledge of the book is required] [Updates every Friday from 20/09]
