THIS CAN'T END WELL FOR OUR HERO.
Eanruig "Ernie" Hawker, Jr. has a secret. A skeleton in the closet to end all skeletons. It catches up with him and throws him a curve ball the size of a rogue planet. He ejects from his crippled ship and lands only to be thrown into the deepest darkest pit in all the universe for deserters and idealistic heroes.
Charged with desertion, his mind will be scrambled like the rest. But the process goes awry when something long since forgotten is awakened. A simple tool created a millennium ago by his ancestors that linked all, but time, ego and fear has crippled it. Ernie's skeleton has re-activated it and in doing so has found the way to escape his prison.
He gathers up the forgotten heroes and creates an escape plan for himself and the rag tag group of warriors, magi, weaver, priestesses, gun heads and even a banished empress.
They're going to carry out the impossible: They're going to save the universe from evil.

The Magic Ring
[Completed] Alien staggered to her, but then he didn't find it easy to look her. Her face had been blackened and she was writhering in pain, smoke issuing out her sweaty body. Holes started to appear in the white dress she was wearing. Her eyes, which seemed they could pop out of their socket anytime, kept darting at Alien as if she wanted to tell him something. She held out her blackened hand to Alien. Alien was going to touch it when suddenly her whole body burst into fire and turned ashes like magic. Alien stepped back, and looked around. There were nomore monsters, but the ashes in their places. Xerxis was the only villain that hadn't caught fire and her corpse lay unharmed by anything but the sword. With smokes wafting from the ashes and the tent that had caught fire, the place was stuffed with smokey mist now. Alien found it difficult to breathe in there. Now he was a free man he could walk out the tent. But before he left, there was something he needed to do.Complete
System: Transcending Happiness (BoyxBoy)
(WARNING: Don't read if you're going to complain there isn't a warning when there's sex, gore, et c. This is a very ADULT novel and as such only ADULTS should read it. Or 'Children' mature enough to read without commenting nonsense.) Jia Yi Ruogang was one of the leading experts in Computer Software, to the extent that everyone believed he was a computer. New Age Government Office had issued him a Pass to go ahead and Hack into systems as he saw fit because of how much Humanity relied on his expertise. Jia Yi was given an arranged marriage with the strongest General leading Humanity in the pursuit of exterminating all the Vrahqs, alien lifeforms, that attacked them. Sadly, someone was livid that the man he loved was being forced to marry another who he thought was 'weak'. In the end, Jia Yi was murdered inside of his Workstation while he attempted to recode a software that could've made fighting the Aliens easier. When Jia Yi opens his eyes there's a man discussing with him how much of a waste it would be for him to die; next thing he knows he's World Hopping. I must make everyone happy? How do I accomplish that? You want me to make that vindictive backstabber happy? Dream on. Wait, why are these two incessentally bothering me? I'm obligated to bring happiness to everyone but I won't sacrifice my body to fulfill that!Complete![The Mechanic [BL]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/352595920-256-k148077.jpg)

Perfect Weapons
Origin: Jagger was once a high ranking operative in a covert interstellar faction known as The Red Directive, a brutal, strategic force tasked with eliminating anomalies across the multiverse. He wasn't just a soldier; he was their wildcard. The one they deployed when diplomacy failed and destruction was the only language left. But something changed. During a mission to infiltrate a rogue starship experimenting with soul manipulation, Jagger encountered a mirror like artifact known as The Grid-Con. It didn't kill him, it fractured him. Memories splintered. Motives twisted. And when he returned, he wasn't the same. The Directive deemed him unstable. Too expressive. Too unpredictable. They tried to erase him, locking him in a cryo-pod aboard a derelict vessel drifting through dead space. But they underestimated his tenacity. His Determination. Now, Jagger wakes with no memory of his past, but with instincts honed like blades. He knows tactics. He knows violence. He knows how to survive. But he wakes up as if restarted from the fractures that the Grid-Con had given him. No longer out of control he seeks to find answers on a mostly now empty starship in space. The Red directive put him on the ship as a failsafe to keep him away from them and hopefully kill him because of a space parasite that is lurking secretly on board. Meanwhile Jagger gets clues as to who he was through random spikes of flashbacks the longer he stays on the ship. Eventually he remembers who he is and goes after the Red Directive commanders one by one until he gets to a certain place that truly tests his limits.Complete
