aliens invasion virus

Isn't it strange that humans have never found any form of life outside of our planet?
There are at least two billion stars in our Milky Way, and one hundred billion galaxies exist in just the observable universe alone.
Maybe we're just not searching hard enough.
Maybe other life is out there and just isn't intelligent enough to grasp the idea of other worlds.
But what if it is?
And it's just waiting for the right time to strike.

Today, after billions of years of evolution, what has become of their civilization? Alien civilization arriving on Earth

Heaven falls by DukeFalcon

Mankind reached the stars. Colonies on distant worlds mark the dawn of a new era. The future seems bright and lucrative to those whom fuel the colonisation-business. The diaspore found the base of techs meant to the next generations and science flourish upon the rich treasures of freshly conquered worlds. But a series of bad decisions could ruin the precious new dawn and may trigger a rude awakening... Would the colonies burn like a bonfire of worlds? Could the wrong decisions be fixed to extinguish the sparks? Or hope fade away in the vast space among the stars?

Runaway World by IanReeve216

During the final decades of the twenty first century, a rogue brown dwarf star passed through the solar system and its gravity threw the Earth out of orbit around the sun. Two hundred years later, when the atmosphere has finished freezing onto the surface, explorers from the last refuge of humanity venture out to see what's become of their world. Things looks bleak. Mankind faces a future of huddling in whatever warm refuges it can make for itself until the Earth's core goes cold, but then a discovery is made. An opportunity exists for mankind to leave the planet and find its destiny among the stars, but to do so requires an all or nothing gamble and losing would mean the end of the human race. Some want to take the gamble. Others don't, and so conflict and violence breaks out as the survey teams explore a planet transformed out of all recognition...

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.

Human Exposure by darkdreamcatcherstu

This is an unusual story to tell and I will tell it. This is not an average space saga, it is not anything you've ever heard before either nor is it a story that you'e read before or anything that would sound familiar. So let me begin right at the beginning. In the beginning of the universe there was nothing. Moments after the big bang, dark matter and dark energy came to be. Stars, gases and planets and so on. Now to set the stage. Dark Matter and Dark Energy are really just forces of the universe. Dark energy pushing galaxies into the universe expanding and dark matter keeping all the galaxies tied up together. But in the story things will turn out differently. Let me not spoil the story, maybe it's not such a good idea to start at the beginning, but let's start at a place where we are all familiar with. A place called home. Located in the Milky Way galaxy we have a tiny little solar system and in this solar system we have a planet called earth. As far as you and I know we are the only intellectual, intelligent and sentient beings in this universe. So we will begin at 'a' beginning where it all started with someone else's life; John Cohan. This individual has no idea what he will be walking into, a new life new beginnings and an end to and an old life.

Jurassic Odyssey (Oc x Prehistoric Franchises Crossover Harem) by Rajaem74

The Earth was once ours, beautiful, lively and perfect for life that is until. Humanity had finally done it. World War 3, a battle between humanity marked the end of all life on planet earth. They used guns, bombs, tanks, ships, planes, nukes and even worse things but...it wasn't enough. The Presence of radioactivity on the entire surface into the seas had completely made the planet extremely inhospitable and so many went underground for safety. But our species of course is too stubborn to fix our mistakes. We simply ignored them and with the greatest advancements at our hands we looked into the stars to find a new home. A new place to be, building large spacecrafts that could support a stable population for At Least a few millions of years. That could travel for lightyears in case we did find a home, in case we found another place to be where we could possibly restart ourselves again and expand into the unknown and well eventually we did find a new home, a planet called Kepler 22b...the last hope for humanity, Kepler-22b (also known by its Kepler Object of Interest designation KOI-087.01) was an exoplanet orbiting within the habitable zone of the Sun-like star Kepler-22. It was located about 640 light-years (200 parsecs) from Earth in the constellation of Cygnus discovered by NASA's Kepler Space Telescope in December 2011 and was the first known transiting planet to orbit within the habitable zone of a Sun-like star, where liquid water could exist on the planet's surface. Kepler-22 was too dim to be seen with the naked eye but was traceable enough to be a future homebase for our species but as to be careful we didn't leave fully. Humanity sent out one of its finest ships to go out into space and scout out the planet to make sure that it was habitable and not a complete waste of time. But unfortunately, and mysteriously The Ship would never return, instead plunging into the planet mysteriously for an unknown reason.

Sentilia by ChristineParentBooks

Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351. She's always been fascinated with how humans used to live in houses, drive cars, and the fact that there used to be forests and parks everywhere. Now, after a war that nearly erased humanity, people are forced to live a strict, dull, communist lifestyle. Everyone seems okay with this way of life. Everyone except Maxine. Maxine had always been special; she was often able to predict events. How? She didn't exactly know...yet. When she starts having dreams about a tropical island where people live as they did in the 21st century, she meets the man of her dreams: literally. Her new boiling emotions bring her to wonder...what if it's a real place? When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination. Finding that island could mean finding the answers to her burning questions, and maybe even answers to questions she didn't know she had. However, not everything is what she thought it would be when she finally finds the island, and her dreams become a harsh reality. Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is. The Advisors, the ten women governing the world, want to assimilate the people of the island, not knowing that those people have an extreme advantage over them. Maxine also learns that her family has been lying to her about who she really is. Ultimately, when the Advisors come to destroy the island, she must face the fact that she is the key to the island's salvation, and embracing her rapidly developing abilities is the only way to do so.

Colony Wars 5: Tales of the Galaxy by 0____T____0

Imagine that the universe is not just a mass of swirling gases, blazing stars and giant spheres of rock. Instead, look at each Galaxy as a massive living entity, with its own consciousness, its own perception of time and its own goals. Each Galaxy has about one hundred billion stars contained within it, and of those stars, around a hundred thousand of them would have planets that could support life. Only a few hundred of those worlds will have life forms that develop higher intellect. These intelligent life forms are the Galaxies children. The Galaxy wants to be able to choose its favourite offspring and give it pride of place above all its other children. It wants to give it lordship and dominion across the Cosmos. These are the stories of one such Galaxy and how the races that came to exist in it were created, how they grew and moved on from their native home worlds, how they discovered the other races of the Galaxy, how they interact with each other and how eventually one race wins the Colony Wars.
