The biting wind carried a stinging dust that attacked the child. His mother tucked him in as closely as she could to keep him from making a sound.
	Their survival depended on it.
Unfortunately, her ragged, gossamer shawl did not nothing against the raging wind and dust. The baby cried out.
"Over here!" the man said with a plasma pistol and a squad of men following behind him.
	The mother couldn't run any faster her baby was not a burden to her but the weather was. Her tears and breath would dissipate in furious air and her thoughts wouldn't be able to catch up with her if they did catch her.
        One of the men flanked her and ended up in front of her and grabbed her by the arm. She shrugged her shawl off her shoulder, covering his face. Then, she rammed her knee into his stomach, doubling him over and making him lose her grip on her. He reached blindly for her again and by luck, grabbed hold of her arm. She shrugged him off and judo kicked his covered face into the wall. He crumpled into the sand.All Rights Reserved

Deep in the Depths by Silverdawn_

The years came and went. Earth is no longer the only planet out there, and adventures are only just beginning for Aurora's crew. Bessie Marvin didn't think she would be selected to join the Aurora. After all, as a freshly graduated agriculture bioengineer, she lacks the experience most of those in her position hold. So, why would a government send someone like her out to the great unknown? The answer comes sooner then she thinks when their ship crash lands at their destination, a water exoplanet with little land in sight. Orion has always wondered if there was more beyond the glowing lights of his world. This idea pulls him away from his tiny reef and the ocean's comfortable currents, creating a fissure between him and his family. When a strange creature crash lands onto his tiny island, Orion knows this is his chance to finally tame this growing curiosity once and for all. However, meeting Bessie Marvin and falling in love was far from his plans. With the world between the two of them collided, there's no way to go back how things once were. Now, they will have to navigate cultural differences from both space and ocean if they wish to stay together throughout the growing tension between the two sides. With time running out, Bessie and Orion will have to decided if they're willing to stand their ground or give in to the pressures of the ocean's depths. Future cover to be made by @-DeeIsDead-

The Deep Cold by ArtFlorian

"You could have been alive if you just didn't rebel against everyone. You just had to be different than your colleagues. Why did you fight them alone? You deserve this." Her face that was previously full of contempt for herself shifted to a grin. "I fought for the good of others, so I'll live happy. I feel so...so warm now." A sudden gust of wind made the snow almost completely cover the woman's body. Stephanie Jefferson's life had seemingly taken shape. She had a career she loved as a high school English teacher, was living on her own in a new apartment, and was starting to look for love. Despite her good fortune, one morning changed everything. What she thought was a cold turned out to be a terminal illness. Dealing with the cards life had dealt her, she struggled to accept what she could not change. As her body withered away, she found one last hope for a future - to have her body cryogenized. After fifty years, cryogenics had lost popularity as a viable option to overcome death. Those who could no longer afford to keep their bodies cryogenized were secretly subject to experimentation. The acts of one company in particular became highly suspicious. A team of detectives were hired to find out what exactly the Advance Human Cyro-Institute was hiding. Were they telling the truth about being able to awaken those who were cryogenized? At what cost? Most importantly, where did Stephanie Jefferson fit into all of this?

The Patriot I: The Awoken by BerryButterfly11

A retired pilot had thought she'd seen it all, until she's asked to become part of the first crew for a spaceship destined to land on a new planet. ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ Genevieve Autumn considered herself retired. She had served her time in the Air Force as a pilot, and in the Army as an officer. At least, she considered herself retired until she found herself on board the Patriot I, one of the first two spaceships to ever leave Earth. The Patriot I is a smaller, weaponized ship with a tough crew to escort the Pioneer, a ship full of humans meant to colonize the far-away planet Z-031. The main issue is that Z-031 is thousands of years away. Even with Earth's advanced technology, it will take three hundred years to arrive. The Pioneer is a Generational Ship, meant to survive in flight for so long. The Patriot is not. The crew will have to be cryogenically-frozen within the ship, asleep in flight for three centuries. As soon as Genevieve opens her eyes after centuries of being asleep, everything goes wrong. The crew remains asleep. The ship doesn't have enough power to sustain them. Her mind is turning against her with the side-effects of the cryogenic-freezing sleep. Lastly, there are enemies lurking just outside the hull of her ship. Genevieve is losing track of what is happening, but what she knows for sure is that none of it is what she signed up for. Author's note: I can't believe I need to specify this, but this story has no affiliation with politics. --Currently undergoing editing! It needs major work, so you've been warned.--

Sidereal by clary__frost

{COMPLETED} Samantha hasn't touched Earth in 16 years. She has always dreamt of finding her biological family on Earth and meeting them for the first time again. But she can't. Samantha can't dream anymore, she is apart of the cause to save the human race. The year is B35 and the Earth is becoming overpopulated every day. The governments have combined forces to try to find a solution before Earth is too crowded. They have tried sending spaceships into space and leave some of the population up there, but the space crafts required to have humans live there forever is not possible. They have tried making underwater pockets so people can live under the sea, but the underwater pockets are too fragile to maintain and easily every citizen can drown. Hope was almost given up. Until scientists found a planet only couple light years away that is a sister planet to Earth. No one has ever been on this planet before and is unsure what will people find there. So on the year B18, all children born within that year were taken from their families and sent into a spaceship to be trained and prepared for the landing of this new planet. Samantha and her squad are flying through space and preparing themselves both mentally and physically for the adventures of this new planet. No one knows what is going to happen when the spaceship lands on this foreign land.

Elena of the Elanoir (Discontinued) by Elitze_Playz

"It was almost impressive, how he managed to swipe everything away from me and so many others," I sigh as I sent a glance to the grass waving. "Like stealing candy from a baby they'd say, yes?" He asked, curiosity in his young voice, "why didn't you try to stop him? Why didn't you try to stop any of them?" "Well simply, I couldn't. I know you know what he's like, even dare step into his domain and you could say goodbye to everything you've known," I answered him, now staring at him with an awkward smile. Even though I had the one thing the tyrant must have been furious about losing sitting there in my lap, none of us could simply walk up to him, defeat him, and call it a day. No, it would take so much more than that, and I wasn't sure if I wanted to go through hell yet again. Even the slightest thought of losing even one of them was enough to send me into a fit. Yet if we did try, we'd have to pray to our lucky stars weeks before trying, and even then, it would be no use. "you're telling me, but you know what," he began as he stood up, "it doesn't mean we're hopeless. We're all so different, yet we all have one wish, one desire, one goal if you thought of it." "As you always say; do it or die trying." __________________________________________________________________________________ IMPORTANT: This story is written with a first-person POV, HOWEVER, since it has more than one main character it can/will change character POV. To (hopefully) make this easier (This will get added onto once more characters are introduced): ^~[^*^]~^ = Elena ~{~*~}~ = Hannah -~[/v\]~- = Ryan [The lore changed; this is no longer accurate to the current lore. Enjoy the start of my journey! I'll be creating a new story sometime soon-ish. Ty for being with me on this journey! <3]
