The Chronicles of the Milky Way Galaxy : Gaia by Tcomwg

A meteorite slams into the earth causing a global catastrophe, the particles on the atmosphere block out the sun for years, slowly cooling the planet leading to a world-wide ice age. Humans find refuge in dome cities, pre-build when the meteorite was detected, which are meant to last under the snow for thousands of years. In the process, technology brings forth the age of immortality and unprecedented automation. The result is a decaying society blind to any cause and drugged to survive the endless parade of years. An idea sparks in the mind of Alex. An idea already rooted in the minds of humans since their early appearance on Earth. Migrate. Within a few years, a team had been formed and a budget had been granted for project Gaia to initiate. The spacecraft "Hera" is built in space, ready to take a few settlers to Solis. A solar system which seems to be ideal for harboring life. Many planets within the goldilocks zone and an abundance of oxygen. Is Alex the hero who will rebuild humanity in a new world or someone who abandoned Earth when it most needed its healthiest minds?

ONE: Epilogue of Hermesh by IndianYorker

Let There Be Darkness by 8Caraphernelia8

"No. I don't want to," I answered. Our conversation didn't go well, because I wanted to be silent, and he wanted to talk. It seemed to me that it had become even lighter around, although the night was only deepening. It couldn't be dawn already, could it? I looked around and ran my eyes along the horizon. The sun was not visible, and the sky was not turning gray. "The night is so bright. ", Drake noticed too. And now I frowned. Why was it? And then there was an explosion that almost deafened me. Rocks flew in all directions. Something exploded in our house. In our dear asteroid. Drake and I jumped almost simultaneously, fell to the ground and covered our heads with our hands. Before I could understand what had happened, there was another explosion and this time screams...

Dust by angrychinchillanoise

All the earth is torn asunder. There used to be grass, and the sun used to be golden. Children played outside, climbing trees with smiles on their faces and grass stains on their knees. People worried about a million things that would soon be irrelevant, continuing without a clue of the disaster to come. Centuries later, what little is left of humanity survives in a society constructed beneath the surface of a glass dome, the world outside converted to little more than a desert wasteland. Survival is a routine rather than an effort, and all rules are surpassed by only one: if you want to survive, you never leave the dome. There's nothing alive out there. The radiation that soaks the earth makes sure of that. Until one day, someone finds a bloody, dust-covered handprint on the outside of the glass. Nothing will ever be the same again.

Akropolis by hcedwards

"Any thought you ever had; memories, desires, your fears and your dreams, are all recorded and stored safely in the Quantum Cloud for your eventual revival. Death is now merely a transitional period to the next stage of your existence. As a QUBIT (quantum processing biosynthetic), you will experience a life free of disease and suffering. Time is no longer your enemy. Regret is a thing of the past. Each new day brings the promise of endless possibilities, spent in the pursuit of your own happiness, guiltless with the knowledge that there are no longer earthly constraints to inhibit you. This is the life you have always wanted. Welcome to your new beginning..." Akropolis is a city at the end of times, a sanctuary where the brightest and best have been housed since the last Great War. A genome defect has afflicted the majority of the population and scientists are desperate to find a cure. In the meantime, man has found his own salvation in the form of the QUBIT (quantum processing bio-synthetic), an android that is capable of prolonging life almost indefinitely, and yet what makes them human in the first place has been lost in the transition. The ruling council believes that salvation is nigh, but whether that hope arrives in time is questionable. The city's future depends upon the actions of a few individuals, all of whom are struggling with their own mortality. Quentin is the boy who dreams of death. Mia is the tortured soul. Trey is the soldier that defines duty. Misao is the future of the ruling council. Claire is the girl with a secret that will rock the foundations of their entire civilization. Unbeknownst to them, the entire fate of Akropolis lies in their hands. Either humanity will find a way to survive or it will sink slowly into the sea of extinction.

Pandora's Eyes. The Alex Cave Series Book 5. by jcorkman1

The color of your eyes will determine if you live or die, in this science fiction techno-thriller. Geophysicist Alex Cave had discovered four alien artifacts that seemed designed to destroy all life on our planet. He thought they were locked up at a top-secret facility, away from unscrupulous industrialists and scientists, but two of the devices have gone missing, and one of them is in orbit over our planet. John Essex is fanatical about conquering space, and has good intentions when he builds the Space Vacuum-1, a device capable of collecting and recycling the orbiting space debris. He never imagined it would start a chain of events that will kill ninety-five percent of the human species here on Earth when it wakes the beautiful artificial intelligence named, Pandora.

Spontaneous Transhomosapientelelocation (A Murder Drones fanfiction) by megakodex

Floating amongst a far off solar system, a coreless planet lays drifting. Its surface frozen over with nothing internally to heat through its mantles, making life ordinarily impossible to survive on. The planets previous inhabitants have been left to mere bones and dust from the destruction of the planets core, with their creations left to wander the remains and pick up the pieces of the now humanless world. But one day the fabric of the universe warped and pinched, and the planet saw its only piece of organic life in years, hair unnaturally whitened and an eye blacked out, donning clothing unfit for the harsh conditions. But luck had it that this person stumbled across the robotic creations that the dead humans left behind, giving him shelter from the piercing cold of the outside. But not all was fine, food is scarce, and searching for food becomes a necessity to provide for this misfit among those who do not need sustenance. Bearing the cold will likely be inevitable, and after his necessities are met, perhaps this spontaneous visitor could assist those providing him shelter, there isn't much left to do on this planet, after all.

Utopia War by CharlesSmith9

Humanity emerges from the aftermath of the technological singularity having conquered scarcity, disease, poverty, aging, death, and, or so they thought, even war. With the aid of artificial intelligence and uplifted animals they have founded a virtual Utopia among the stars where people work only for personal development, satisfaction, or selflessly for the benefit of others. An attempt to help another space-faring species has unexpected consequences that threatens to engulf a whole region of space, and the Human Consensus is forced to intervene. When the small conflict grows into an existential threat to their entire civilization, humanity is forced for the first time to ask the question: can Utopia survive total war? I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com and this is one of many ridiculous hoops they want me to jump through.
