Dear Earthling,

I've heard stories about your planet, Earth. Is it true that you can see greenery for miles on end? Do creatures called birds really gather together and sing to you in the morning like a choir? I've been told that if you look upwards, you can see a beaming blue ocean made out of nothing but fresh air that stretches out as far as your eyes can see. It sounds like heaven from over here.

Yours truly,
A Martian

Without warning it began! The inevitable, I think it's fair to assume this book is not in my possession. This means I'm most likely dead. Most nights I wrestle the reason I have chosen to explain what happened, the things we did to each other, things no human being should witness. I Wright this simply to enlighten your poor soul and give you more of a chance than I had. A chance to survive what is most likely the brink of human extinction. Times are harder now and as the days go by we are less of our former selves. We have become husks floating around in a lost, desolate world. I look at this place and it still seems so alien to me, as the days roll into the nights I'm still unsure of how we got to this point. If you are reading this, you too are probably North and very much aware of what has happened to our beloved city. I feel a responsibility to inform you that you will most likely share the same fate as I have. I understand you may be wondering what's worse than death, trust me in this place death seems like a paradise compared. I do not know why I still feel so obligated to write this. To be honest most nights I think its just an escape from the madness, like a natural sedative it's the only way I can fall asleep in this hell. However I do need to clear my conscious and pay dividend for my demons. I need you to know what happened to me; I need you to know what we have become and what we are capable of. I need you to know why we have chosen to kill each other, why the smell of human flesh lingers in the air like slow roast pork on a Sunday afternoon. Why bodies litter our streets. Why things that seemed to be so impossible happen in front of our very own eyes. Why conformity i this place is the unreal ideas people live their lives by and why I was included into this group of youthful abominations. All of this might be irrelevant compared to what I am about to tell you.
From His Eyes by SweaterWeather_28

Looking down at the sandy shores, I smell the fresh sea breeze. The cool wind whispers past my ears... sending shivers up my spine. My feet now feel out of my control as they pull me toward the crashing waves like a magnet. I look back to see him watching me, but I take every minute to soak in the magic of the ocean. The pure blue sky and endless clear sea... my breath seems lost in the moment. The deep shades of pink and yellow hibiscus flowers create a soft blanket over the salty waters. Closing my eyes... I hear the seagulls break the peaceful silence. His tall shadow appears next to me. "It really is breathtaking," I hear him say. "Yeah, it really is..." I whisper softly. My breath shudders at his touch. I look down and see his hand pulling mine toward the silk-like sand. I sit down next to his tall body and close my eyes. --- When Autumn's life gets an unexpected twist she finds herself changing her whole life. On this crazy journey, an unexpected guest bumps into her crazy roller coaster and finds out the truth about her. Will this ruin everything or will he tell her the truth too? Cruz has gone through a lot more than people know, and with Autumn on top of it all, can he handle it or will he tell her what happened in his past?
The Dome City by Meemee1978

It's so hot, what is going on. Is it even humanly possible to sweat this much?" Oh, but the temperature is just perfect "Who is that? Wait, you can hear my thoughts? Where am I?" As I open my eyes, I realize I'm not on my bed or even in my room where I should be after coming home late last night. "Or did I not make it home? This is definitely not earth" I said to myself as I looked around and took a 360-degree view of what I can't even describe. "Is this is supposed to be a house? Where am I?" Beautiful isn't it? This could all be yours if you want, or whatever change you want to make to it, just think about it, anything you want, anything you can think about, it's all yours. "This voice again, who are you, where are you?" I shouted out and waited for a response but to my disappointment, I heard no reply. "Beautiful?" I said to myself as I looked around, "Is this not more than beautiful? The whole building is made of glass, pure crystal-clear glass." I looked around and studied the cube like structure made entirely from glass and if my eyes were not deceiving me, was also rotating slowly. "But how is that possible, I'm standing on a fixed spot and not feeling any movement, also the darkness that totally surrounds the glass building isn't allowing me to determine if the building is really rotating or not. What kind of confusion is this?" All that surrounded the glass building was darkness, black thick darkness. What is this cube even built on? No foundation? It's just hanging in space? What is this darkness? How is this crazy heat not even destroying the glass cube? This is definitely not a building. Is this still Earth? Several questions rushed up my mind as I surveyed the area I turned away from all these questions and the surroundings of the cube as no one was going to answer my questions. The glass beneath my feet felt cold as I tried walking and that just added to the weirdness of the place.

Andromeda: The Last Descendants by 00BooksbyAugust00
33 parts Ongoing Mature
Survival in space was our only option. The dying earth and its sickly inhabitants forced us to flee to the stars. My father, the commander of the elite group chosen to live amongst the stars, brought me along for the journey. And everything was going smoothly until I unexpectedly woke up on a new planet, one with an ethereal glow and an eerie resemblance to our old home as the commander of the military space force, my father tasked his men with exploring this new world. But what they discovered was far from welcoming. This new planet was already inhabited by terrifying creatures, and they were not happy with our presence. His men fought to survive against these beasts, I couldn't help but wonder why they were so hostile towards us. That's when one of them approached me, defying everything we had been warned about. Instead of attacking, it watched me pick flowers before later saving me from a fiery blast. Now it's my turn to save him. Please read the prologue in the beginning before going to Chapter 1. I know a lot of people skip Prologues, however, it has important information that will give you a better understanding of what's going on in other chapters. Feel free to comment and vote. Its makes my day better seeing you enjoy this book as much as I enjoy writing it. #1 Colony - 11/17 #1 Invading - 11/17 #1 Colonization- 12/29 #1 Spacestation- 4/8 #1 Spacecraft- 6/18

Goddius I am content to see the rotation of light.... turn into darkness then back into light. Which is the same as it goes into night from light right back into night. I am delighted and pleased to see the sky and seas, the land which is firm with grass that is green and plenty of trees. I'll make sure they have lots of fruits and veggies.... that will come with its own seeds to full each of their bellies... And I'll grow it all over.... To cover their needs daily. And I must not forget to thank Mother Nature...she helped me line up the sun, stars and the moon she did it so fast, the time goes by so soon. Then I filled up the oceans with small and big fish... crabs, oysters, shrimp. Whenever they like, they can have as much as they wish. I put birds in the sky that knew how to fly, so that they'll know without my call they could only soar so high. I put some animals to be admired and some to be hugged, livestock to be eaten and some to be rubbed. Yet I saved the best for last and you will walk in my image, but respect the atmosphere because you're the ones living in it.... Now the only thing left to do, is to wish it all true, if you want to come to heaven then do as we do.... Let it be done on earth as it is done in heaven... Let it be done on earth as it is done in heaven...Let it be done on earth as it is done in heaven. Let it be done on earth as it is done in heaven! I see nothing but goodness from this. Only if he knew of all the chaos going on in heaven before he wished it upon us.
An Inch Of Infinity (Short Version) by IAmAnAuthorLETMEIN
84 parts Complete
In the near future the entire world is conquered by a group of people known as Royalties, or the Royals for short. They declared war on the planet. If you were not with them, you were against them. by the end of the 21st century the world was utter chaos and anyone who did not follow the laws to the letter were taken away by the Keepers. Part ninja, part spy, part soldier, the Keepers were brainwashed citizens raised from 8 months old to be able to apprehend anyone. Only 87% made it through training. The population was cut into 6 groups, one for each block, each the size of a continent. Every other healthy child was marked at birth to become a Keeper. Children were often sent to other blocks to keep the population exactly even, but not always. Rebellions rose but were extinguished quickly, before they even really started. Eventually the only hope was a single underground rebellion until even that began to disappear. This is the same exact story as An Inch of Infinity except it has been broken into small chapters to be more easily read on mobile devices. I own the characters, the story, the cover art. Everything. Please don't steal them.
The Everything: Integration (Sci-Fi Alien Invasion? Story) by Vexxen0
61 parts Ongoing
Earth, our home. But... something is wrong. As the nature of reality makes itself known, watch earth react, and change, with fear, hate, progress, and love. To the grand events the universe has in store for earth. As the world changes, as the universe revivals aliens exist, but not the world ending kind. As humanity realizes... perhaps the universe is too good for us. --- A story within The Everything canon, a foundation to it. This is a passion project, and I'm still developing my writing style, so feedback is welcome! If you create fan art, I'd be happy to include it (with credit). I am not willing to pay for art, or new covers at this time. The current cover may replace if I get something better. Contact Me: https://discord.gg/6nWpaDNKhY
