~~~~ He never expected a planet trapped by light to be so dark. ~~~~

When the Stonce system's sun evolves into a red giant, it's remaining people must flee to the oceans floor for any chance of survival. No one can enter, and no one can leave. Deaths stakes are high, but are they high enough to deter a willfully determined boy as he tries to escape his past and the scars that he gained on the very planet that holds him captive? 

Mekhi wishes to escape to the stars, but would the distance be enough to truly set him free?

The Battle Within An Angel by NBNiar
31 parts Complete
Maddox Price has been implanted with a chip, allowing an ancient deity to control every thought that crosses his mind. Be it unwillingly, he's tasked with protecting someone "special," a smart-mouthed girl deemed the "healer of humanity." Claire Adara was raised in an orphanage, left abandoned after her parents died in a fatal car accident. She'd learned to be sneaky, and that trust is a rare gift that must be earned. When she met Maddox, though, she was drawn to him. Well, not to his attitude, but rather the shimmering gold liquid that ran through his veins. As if controlled solely by a deity and absent of any individual thought, Maddox and Claire must (against their natural instincts) work together to save the world from the natural catastrophe that is the Red Giant. The sun has become 100 times bigger than it once was, and it's scorching the Earth. Claire is the only one who can reverse it. Though, the sun is only one problem on a long list of them. Anarchist group- Chaos- is after her life, simply for the omnipotent power that she possesses. As humanity stands on its last two feet- her two feet- Claire works alongside Maddox in a journey to save both humanity and themselves.

"Run!" The last thing Aldric's father ever said to him and it seems he has never stopped. Predators from a faraway world rampage across his home planet, Atarikka. People are being savaged and a traitor is to blame. Thirteen year old Aldric and his three new comrades adventure across the worlds of the Kalanian Galaxy. Their aim: to get home and stop the force of Incursio, a madman who will do anything in order to survive. Aldric never thought his life could get any more crazy until he is bestowed the title, responsibilities and power of the Crystal Guardian, the one expected to lead everyone to war. Approx. 78000 words Also available for download at Smashwords (www.smashwords.com/books/view/929789 Background: When I was 12, I started reading a book that alludes me now, but I would love to remember what it was! There was a boy, in a cave...crystals were involved...it inspired me to start writing Crystal Guardian (then called Space Pirates - changed to avoid comparison to the children's show!) I'm a slow writer...I stop and start, and reedit. This novel looks nothing like the Space Pirates it came from! I didn't finish until I was 19. Before I started university to study writing...so it is flawed, but I look back on it fondly. Probably heavily inspired by Star Wars...oops.
