They never need to land, they never need to refuel, they grow their own food. To test the effects of living on these vessel 100 participants from throughout the Empire are sent out on a year-long voyage, with no contact with the Empire and no way to control the ship that is now their home.

But not everything goes to plan. Power struggles among the passengers lead to volatile situations; A murder on board changes everything; And several passengers make a bold plan that might ruin everything or could be their one chance of survival.

And all the while Nora just really wants to be left alone.All Rights Reserved

The Girl in the Tank: Galactic Consortium, Season 1 by RJEliason

Less than five months ago, lights appeared in the sky. Days later the ships started to arrive. They call themselves the Consortium. They are human, or at least Simian, descending from the same genetic line as humans. They terraformed this planet centuries ago, sent settlers a mere forty thousand years ago. Now they are back, ready to begin the exploration of this galaxy. For Cheyenne Walker, Chief Petty Officer aboard the Cambridge, a USS destroyer, the arrival of the Consortium is just one more obstacle to finishing her final tour of duty and getting home to her kids. The political upheaval forces the US into an uneasy alliance with the Consortium against China, and puts the Cambridge on the edge of a nuclear blast. Cheyenne wakes to find herself aboard the Corelean, a Consortium Medical Evacuation ship. Floating in a medi-tank, she wonders if they really can't repair the wreck of her body, whether these newcomers are friends or foes and most importantly, will she ever make it back to children?

She might've been tempted to ride it out, except Evan - who always manages to find his way back into her heart - is on board, and she may be the only one in any position to stop the slaughter before everyone on board dies. With her past still haunting her, it's not as simple as pulling the trigger. The one thing she can't do is admit her father was right.

Chaos Rising by HarlequinBoggle

Pirate attacks are rare. Faster-than-light pirate attacks are rarer. But that doesn't mean they don't happen. Excerpt: "We aren't turning fast enough!" the Engines ensign wailed. "Belay that! Monitor the engines, ensign," the Captain said firmly. "Inbound collision to starboard," Scans reported. "Heat emissions suggest... the frigate is readying pulse lasers!" "Divert power to starboard shields," the Captain ordered. "Inform Security. Weapons?" "The frigate is still out of our arc of fire," Weapons reported. The Captain had already known that. Belare's Gift was a passenger liner; it wasn't designed for combat. "The frigate has slowed to cruising speed. It matches no known registered vessels. Mining vessel profile. I'm reading massive energy and heat emissions to the vessel's bow." "Kerrah..." Sei'rik hissed in her native Techaran. "Pulse lasers firing! Brace for impact!" Scans screamed.
