The whole universe was in turmoil. Plunged in what seems to be an unending intergalactic war, the time for the normalcy of mundane lives was long over. Each human was born and educated to be of use to the planetary defense. Right from the moment their basic intelligent quotients could be measured, they were already assigned their specific purposes in life.
And then there's Altair McIntosh. The prisoner. The identity thief. The one who claims that she was Admiral Deus McIntosh's daughter. But her claims were proven otherwise when another girl came in the picture--a girl with the same face, same voice, and even the same memories as hers. They were the same in all things except for one. During one fateful moment, one girl was safe by her father's side, and one was caught in action killing her own supposed mother, the Admiral's wife.
Put in prison for several crimes at a young age, Altair could not remember how long she was held captive. A blast to her once impenetrable ceiling was the first change she witnessed after her years of imprisonment. A stray starship came crashing down in front of her. And with it came a young man. Robotic, dysfunctional, and with the most beautiful eyes she had ever seen.
---
"Someday we will be where we truly belong." He smiled at her, his starship hovering millimeters above the ground. He was caressing her cheek. Holding his hand in both of hers, she teared up. Tears threatening to spill with her bittersweet smile. "I have faith in you. Go out there and return to me." She kissed his palm for the last time. Closing the cockpit of the starship, the last thing she saw was his smile. "May the stars bless our skies."

Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258!

There are many other, less powerful species; Humanity is forced to join their ranks, low in the pecking order. As they explore and colonise new worlds, the Systems Alliance of Humans encounter the Batarians. Skirmishes ensue, avoiding an all-out war that might draw the attention of the Citadel. On a frontier colony, tragedy strikes time and again. Growing up knowing little else, eager to avenge a mother's death at the hands of Batarians, a youngster's journey begins to "be all they can be".

War of Praisers
Nothing left my mouth as I stared at him in shock. He truly believed that I was part of this. The man, who I had lived with and served for months. The man who I had protected with my life and soul. I stood still while, as he backed away from me quickly. "I trusted you with my life." His cry pierced around the empty room. He looked so destroyed and hurt, but mostly his face portrayed rage and determation. "And I protected you with mine." I spoke back loudly. I didn't hear myself say it but I knew I did. I look into his eyes even from our distance they seemed to wallow me in darkness. "I gave you mine." My voice was quiet and cracked. His face changed only for a second before his old one took over again. He doesn't believe me. It doesn't matter what I say or do he won't listen. He will still believe I am the bad guy. Just as Kane said, we will never be equals, we will never be fellow humans. We will always be monsters to them. "Yakov, I am not the bad guy." I plead one last time. His Russian accent comes out harsh with his next words. "Your right," he pauses, "you are the villain." I stumble back as if I had just been stabbed in the chest. It was a horrible feeling. It was never good with the emotions and yet I recognize the feeling as heart beak. I barely breathe in air as I regain my posture. A battle cry from somewhere distracts me momentarily. I suddenly remember Ewan. I glare at Yakov one more time before I take off after the cries of battle. Jade believes she started the war among the human and her kind. Nothing is as it was portrayed. The lies and the truth are hidden among each other. There is is no clear good and evil. How can there be if one does not know what is right and what is wrong. She was prepared to see death, prepared to inflict death upon others without mercy or remose. She was prepared to do her job which the Facility had given her. But now it doesn't seem so simple anymore. Instead she focuses on keeping her friends alive.Complete

𝐋𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐀𝐇𝐍 ; MARVEL
The cosmos calls her Leviathan. The Avengers call her theirs. Kira Voss-Jedi quantum-savant, reality-breaker, starborn martyr-never asked to be loved. Not like this. Not when love tastes like a vibranium collar and a shattered galaxy. But when you wield power that bends time and ignites supernovas, even Earth's mightiest heroes fracture into something... hungrier. Tony Stark builds her a suit she doesn't need, his A.I. whispering "You're safer here, always here." Thor carves her name into the walls of Asgard's ruins, thunder roaring "Mine to protect, mine to keep." Natasha Romanoff's knives find the throats of anyone who dares glance at her too long. And Steve Rogers-oh, Captain America-his blue eyes frost over when she fights beside others. "You deserve a world that deserves you," he growls, shield cracking a planet's crust to prove it. But Kira is no damsel. Her lightsaber bleeds quantum violet, her rage a black hole even the Hulk fears to trigger. She'll burn their devotion to ash if it means saving the Multiverse... until Wanda Maximoff arrives. The Scarlet Witch, who dreams in Kira's heartbeat, who reshapes realities to cage her in silk and scarlet. "You'll love me," Wanda croons, chaos magic smothering the stars. "You just need time." Love is a war. And the Avengers? They'll raze heaven to win it. LEVIATHAN When the Earth's Mightiest Heroes become the Galaxy's Most Dangerous Obsession. Tagline: "You don't get to love a supernova. You worship it-or you let it burn you." 🔥 Want the twisted tea of Tony's mech-armor "gifts," Thor's cursed Valkyrie vows, or Wanda's reality-warping "romance"? Let me know. 🔥
Spacial Illusions
"Those aliens are not my concern, the Earth and her populations are. Now, Callisto of the Scout Regiment to Salutem, as a citizen of this planet and a soldier under my command-" "I stopped being a soldier a long time ago. And those aliens have done nothing to you, you didn't even know they existed until I told you about them. I joined this mission not because I was ordered to, but because I wanted to carve my name in history. But I will not mark my namesake as a murderer of the very first species we have found that is on par with human intelligence! If my legacy is to be the protector of those you refuse to acknowledge, then so be it." The room hissed and flowed with whispers and gossip between the different board members, like a waterfall being heard through thick earmuffs. The only voice to be clearly heard was Director Striker himself. "You are rooting for a lost cause, soldier. It is the manifest destiny of us humans to reach out and touch the stars. And if the only way to touch those stars is to sacrifice a few savages, then that is what we must do." Callisto felt her anger towards a man she once admired swell in her chest and wash through her veins with a burning fire. He was proposing mass genocide simply because he wanted what belonged to them. The wheel of history turns, but nothing is ever new it seemed. "Have you read a history book in your life, Director Striker? Manifest destiny is used a mere few pages before a genocide. It's not a motivation, it's an excuse." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fair warning: this is my very first original story so please be kind to my baby, she is a lifelong passion and a labor of love. •••COMPLETED••• •Please do not copy or post anywhere outside of these pages.Complete
First to Rise (Excerpt)
The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through inkitt or galatea!!!) (some read events may apply) (check update chapter for more details!) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!)
