"What is your predicament?" he repeated slowly I was getting pissed. My predicament is; I led my coworker and friend to an early grave, my fiancé if I dare call her that, was gallivanting around God knows where, doing God knows what. I had never even seen or held a gun all my life but in less than 48 hours I've somehow managed to stare down the barrel of a gun. I also endangered my family and anyone foolish enough to call me a friend and not too long ago I put an innocent woman, someone's grandmother in ICU. "What's your predicament?" Short legs asked again, spacing his words slowly as if each held a double meaning. My brain clicked suddenly; "I have delayed diagnosis" He nodded briefly. "Welcome. I'm Doctor Rasheed". ::::::::::::::::::::: Rex Obasi was just an average banker struggling to deal with his fiance dissapearing after eight years. In a crazed moment of greed, he steals valuable documents worth millions but there's something else in the mix; a piece of paper containing numbers - coordinates he doesn't understand. When the coordinates lead to a deadly human trafficking ring, operating under the guise of an N.G.O, Rex realizes he has stumbled on what is no doubt the most dangerous organized crime, operating since 1989. His life of deposit slips and checkbooks are turned upside down, now it's guns and bullets, knives and assassins. It's up to Rex to put an end to it, redeem his conscience, and just maybe he could get a second shot at love. But there's every possibility that a bullet is coming next.

[COMPLETED] War. Sacrifice. Two inevitabilities of human nature come together once more as the human race encounters its latest Great Filter. The Covenant. A genocidal alien alliance hell-bent on the utter destruction of man-kind. A theocratic society convinced that humanity is the only thing standing in its way between eternal damnation, and ascension to godliness. As humanity quickly realizes they're outmanned, outmatched, and outgunned they call on the young and vibrant to defend their way of life. Joseph Gray. An ordinary young man living an ordinary life finds his society crumbling apart at the seams due to an ever-intensifying plague of insurrection that seems to spread faster than it can be quelled. After joining the Marines to make a difference, to bring stability to his society, he soon realizes that he's no more than a minuscule cog in a very large machine. Harvest. A major farming colony at the edge of UNSC-controlled space goes offline. Just as Gray thinks he'll coast out his short-term service in the Corps, tragedy strikes, and a new player enters the field. Now Gray must desperately juggle the responsibilities of maintaining his relationship with the girl of his dreams, raising a future family, surviving the Covenant onslaught, and most of all: Keeping his humanity. The Covenant doesn't play by the rules in their quest to exterminate humanity, and as the UNSC grows desperate, Gray's world will be rocked time and time again. ***Warning: Mature Content*** Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to Halo.

On the precipice of a potential World War III, humanity finds itself entangled in a web of its own making: escalating racial tensions, societal unrest, and a deep-seated fear of the "other." Into this volatile mix comes an unexpected element - the arrival of alien refugees, green-skinned humanoids fleeing their war-torn planet. This seemingly fantastical element serves as a potent allegory, forcing us to confront our own anxieties and prejudices regarding immigration, cultural differences, and the complexities of global conflict. The story follows the journey of a young Black girl, whose act of compassion towards a green child inadvertently sets in motion a chain of events that will reshape the course of humanity. Her simple act of sharing food becomes a symbol of hope, a stark contrast to the rising tide of xenophobia that sweeps across the globe. The UN's decision to grant asylum to the alien refugees, though seemingly humanitarian, ignites a firestorm of global opposition, highlighting the fragility of international cooperation and the ease with which fear can manipulate public opinion. But the arrival of the aliens isn't solely a tale of human prejudice; it is also a story of internal conflict within the alien race itself. A faction, choosing to remain on their war-ravaged homeworld, harbors a deep-seated hatred for humanity and plots a conquest of Earth. This creates a multi-layered conflict: not merely a battle between humans and aliens, but a war within a war, mirroring the internal divisions and ideological conflicts that plague humanity itself. This narrative explores the thin line between unity and division, the cost of prejudice, and the unwavering strength of empathy in a world teetering on the brink. It's a story that challenges us to examine our own biases, to confront the darkness within ourselves, and to choose compassion in the face of fear.

It begins near the end, with a man intent on destruction, who feels most of his humanity has gone. As with so many others. Set in a future where almost all sentient life on earth no longer exists. Yet something remains. People continue to live as if nothing has changed, unaware that they are no more than copied memories running in an artificial substrate. In writing The Captured I've tried going some way to explore what defines sentience. And considered the following: Would a machine entity recognize the distinction between itself and biological life - if it could replicate thought and action? And if it could recreate the exact function of a living being what difference does it make whether as flesh or machine? But also this is a human story, though sometimes viewed from an alien perspective... Blurb: [Life is going well for Torbin. A successful career, a happy marriage. Then something strange happens ... and again. So he begins to wonder: has it all been a lie? There is someone who claims to have the answers, a man returned from the past - from the dead. Only it seems someone else wants the truth to remain hidden. An alien visits Earth to study its people. Disguised as a human, her involvement goes far beyond mere observation. She becomes embroiled in a struggle to save what remains of humanity. But already a machine intelligence has transformed Earth into an unrecognisable world, and continues to spread ceaselessly across the galaxy. Yet there is one way to stop them, a weapon held by an old enemy that could itself wipe out all sentient life. There are those who believe they can survive the ultimate destruction. But at what cost?]

Life with the Haven Team was simple: fight bad guys, keep villains in check, keep your identity secret, and above all don't cause a scene. When a superpowered assassin chases a target into the Haven's fair city, she heralds the beginning of something much worse than a simple murder case. My first go at an original story. Any similarities to people real or imagined are most likely pure coincidence. None of my friends inspired characters in this book. I have no idea what you're on about.
