Earth, the year 3100.
Humanity is gone from this dust-coated rock, all that remains are the cockroaches and the mutated scavengers who could never be recognized as human. And the machines. Mechanical war engines still stalk the decimated planet, tearing eachother apart in grand displays of swords and hellfire. Impact craters dot the Earth's surface, entire seas have evaporated. The Earth is dry, dead, and uninhabitable. But there is one hope: Mars. The red planet, which sits so far off the horizon. It seems impossible, even though it's already been done. To those who could never make it there, they wait for their impending doom each passing day, choking on smog and dust.
Mars, year 4300.
Lunae Planum.
Fafnir Village.
A peaceful life is lived here, in a village of seventy-eight people. tradition is held high among these people, and they wish to stay living the way their people had lived for over 800 years. At the age of 15, people chosen as Champions, Trackers, Spellcasters, or Pillars, are bonded with a dragon, each to their own. These people are meant to be the the village's defense, should anything come their way, such as a Landship, a massive, metal ship running on tracks, built to conquer.
This is about one boy, his dragon, and a few unlikely friends, all of whom simply wish to survive in the harsh world that is modern Mars.

Pokémon Mars
Humans and Pokémon are colonising Mars, but good people aren't the only ones with their eyes on this new world. The first spaceflight of the Ares program launched 49 years ago. So far, the red planet hasn't been kind. Without spacesuits, few Pokémon can survive outside the bubble that protects the first town, Ironville. Humans certainly can't. Most of its 350,000 residents say they love it there, but jokes about the 'Mars madness' hide a sinister reality for those who disagree. Despite that, more people and Pokémon keep coming. Amongst the huge crew of Ares 24 are four scientists convinced they'll be the ones to terraform the planet and see Pokémon thriving in the wild: Callerya Mesquite Magnolia, Thalassa Hawthorn Harmonia, Joshua Pickett and Jin Oak. Nyx Harmonia is their security guard. Mercury Harmonia is their photographer. The latter two, however, have something else in mind: finding Nyx's great-grandfather Volo and Mercury's father Horace, who disappeared through an Ultra Wormhole 30 years ago. If Volo and Horace are on Mars, that means the people who kidnapped them also are. They may well have found fellow villains Team Genesis, who also disappeared in search of Mars many years ago... and then there are the members of the criminal syndicates Cipher and Team Plasma who somehow made it onto the ship. Survival, let alone victory, is unlikely this time around. -------------------------------------- ⚠️ Rated mature for language, violence and death. 🕑 Timeline: 266 years after Legends: Arceus, 105 years after Red/Blue, 100 years after Black/White, 92 years after Sword/Shield, 30 years after Out of the Woods (my last story) This is a sequel to Pokémon: Out of the Woods.

Creature (Minecraft YouTuber AU)
As the trees and its land slowly burn down by he deadly purple acid, a man that was watching from afar shivered at this sight. This has been going on for ages, and the creature hasn't been stopped. If they didn't stop the thing on time, everything they knew, everything they have ever known. Every building ever created, every world that has been generated, would be gone. The man looked towards his companion, or was he, his companion? His friend has been acting a bit strange, acting anything but not himself. The man took a deep breath and sighed. He looked towards the man with a stern face, gripping onto his iron sword. "Are you sure, you aren't, It?" His friend looked back at him, and chuckled coldly in response. "You know me, buddy, I wouldn't let It get to me." On the next day, the man's friend was gone. So was the other. *Narrating will get better the more you read* *COMPLETE* (YouTubers au, based on the actual ******** world.

Enslaved
Decades ago, humans found the peaceful land of Vaerali where all dragon-human hybrid races had coexisted in peace and prosperity for many millennia. The humans saw the lush green plains and golden fields of wheat and sent their people in force across the seas to burn and conquer it in the name of their Emperor. Without any other motive than desire for what they don't have, they declared war on Vaerali and chaos erupted across the tranquil lands. Screaming sounded day and night as hybrids all across Vaerali were slaughtered; whole races going extinct in one night as the humans spread their ruin across the land, claiming it one town at a time. This dark time in Vaerali is known all across the world as the Dragon Slaughter; the night the dragon hybrid race was conquered. Years pass and a tentative peace finally settles over the scarred lands of Vaerali as the humans shove the hybrids far into the shadow of their reign. They force any who resist their rule into enslavement or, if that doesn't prove to be enough to crush their spirit, they kill them and hang their wings as trophies - and a warning to all the others who disobey the reign. To this day, the humans still hold all of the power over Vaerali and, in turn, all of the dragon hybrids. But there are storm clouds on the horizon. And from the rubble of a decimated civilization, a rebellion is growing.Complete

The Story follows a once human girl named Aira with almost no recollection of the memories of her old life.

"All my life i hated humans. They disgust me. They are the reason for our planets extinction with their stupid wars and foolish actions. Aiming to create a world of wealth and happiness by destroying it in the process... the irony. I can't stand being one of them any longer so i'll become their greatest nightmare and I know just the way to bring them the despair and horror they deserve. I'm no longer Aira. From now on I shall be called Zyra and you have the honor to adress me as your Queen." Follow Zyra in her new life as the Queen of her very own swarm.

The Devourer (A Highschool DxD Fanfic)
With the impossible size of the universe, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that there is life beyond just humans out there. Countless things have lived and died yet one stands above the rest due to the sheer amount of time it has lived. Almost since the beginning of the universe itself has it existed; a biological monster that would destroy and consume anything in its path. Planets, asteroids, entire stars even; whatever got in this things way wouldn't stay in the way for very long. It was a repetitive existence until one day the abomination met its match in the form of an absolutely enormous star. It ended with a draw that sent the abomination rocketing off in a random direction away from the place it had been consuming for so long. It traveled for millions upon millions of years before finally coming to a stop just outside of some odd new planet brimming with life. Along the way through space, it gained awareness of its surroundings so it was now able to choose what to do with this odd planet. Consume or Explore . . . What a future this will be -------------- (Don't expect realism lol, this is an anime fanfic) {Chapters lengths are gonna be all over the place so Idk lets say at least 2k words min} {Lemons, Descriptive Gore}- {Watch out for warnings if you don't want to see that kinda stuff}Complete
