WE WON THE WAR, BUT CAN WE SURVIVE THE NIGHT?
Nineteen years ago, the Maydays attacked. Five colossal monsters rose from the earth and laid waste to cities around the globe, pushing humanity to the brink of extinction.
Now those monsters are our slaves, fighting each other for our amusement in brutal matches broadcast across the world, courtesy of the Volkov Media Corporation.
A MONSTER LIES DEAD.
Maydays have proven themselves indestructible. So when a Mayday is found dead with no cause and no witnesses, Volkov’s staff detective Jay Escobar is tasked with uncovering the truth before it can cripple the company.
THE MAYDAYS WILL RISE AGAIN.
This is the case that will make Escobar’s career. But the investigation soon spirals wildly out of control. As he races to solve the case before it’s too late, Escobar discovers that the Mayday’s death is only the first step in a plot that will see humanity plunged back into an unwinnable war.
And he’ll be at ground zero when it begins.
MAYDAY is a genre-bending mash-up of hardboiled crime fiction and Japanese kaiju cinema. Sam Spade meets Godzilla in a gripping mystery of monstrous proportions.

Terra's God incarnate (Arknights x Male OC)
In the darkest trenches of Iberia's ocean, where light has never touched, something ancient stirs. Born as nothing more than a fragile aquatic creature, it should have perished against the endless storms and the poison of Originium. But Terra is a world of change, and change demands survival. Bombarded by Catastrophes, consumed by Originium, and reshaped by forces beyond comprehension, the creature begins to evolve. Each transformation tears its body apart, only to rebuild it stronger, faster, more terrifying than before. From the sea to the land, from crawling beast to towering colossus, it adapts - it endures. Until at last, it emerges. No longer a mindless animal, but an apex beyond nature. A titan that walks the land, a living engine of destruction, crowned with the name: Ultima. To some, it is Terra's final disaster - the harbinger of extinction. To others, it is the only force powerful enough to stand against the horrors yet to come. Hope or doom, savior or executioner - its roar will decide the fate of the world.

Where Gods Devour
M Day-the day monsters first crawled out of the sea and sky-left Japan scarred in blood and fire. Entire districts vanished, millions died, and humanity was forced to fight back with the only weapon it had left: the Kamuy Defense Force. Among them rises Captain Natsuri Asuna, the youngest to ever hold the rank. With lightning in her veins and a blade forged for storms, she carves through kaiju as if tearing open the heavens themselves. But every battle carries a cost-her body, her breath, and the fragile lives she has sworn to protect. At her side is Lieutenant Hayato "Hawk" Fujimura, a whirlwind fighter whose pride may be the only thing sharper than his blades. Together they are humanity's shield, but the kaiju are evolving, and new horrors stir beneath the earth. Whispers echo through the command center: Is Asuna too powerful for her own good? Or is she the only hope left for survival? As thunder cracks over a city drowning in blood and neon, one truth remains- where gods devour, humanity bleeds.Complete
U.S.S.A. Umbra
In the distant future of the 28th century, mankind survived near extinction and made it into the wider galaxy, with almost no other sapient life in the milky way to stop humanity's expansion. Space was ripe for the pickings. Now mankind and the enigmatic Voidrians formed the U.S.S.A. (the United Solar Systems Alliance). Before mankind became the dominant force in the Milky Way, Earth was in shambles --- natural resources were nearly depleted, disease was rampant and most of Earth's population was in poverty. Then by some miracle of discovery or a cruel cosmic joke, in the early 23rd century, when all humanity could do was go out into space to search for a new home, a small planet that was black as the void around it was discovered. The humans who landed on the little planet had nearly lost all hope until they stumbled upon unknown ancient ruins beneath the planet's surface where they discovered untold amounts of bizarre advanced technology. Earth and humanity were saved. The little planet that was to thank for their salvation was named Umbra. Corporal Damien Kurosawa, a marine for the U.S.S.A., and his girlfriend, Alice, are hired to work aboard the famous transport ship that saved humanity, the U.S.S.A Umbra. But over the coming days, strange phenomena unleash out into mind-bending chaos that will push and break everyone's mental and physical limits, the likes of which no human has ever experienced or...survived.Complete
