Trust No One
They woke up in a world they didn't recognize. No names. No memories. No escape. Buried beneath a ruined city called Haven, Clara Taylor and a group of strangers find themselves trapped in a high-tech facility built by someone-or something-not entirely human. Outside, the Earth is silent. Inside, lies pulse through the walls. Every room hides a secret. Every ally could be a spy. And above them, something ancient is watching. As they race to uncover the truth about who they are and why they were chosen, Clara begins to unlock memories that don't belong to her-and a voice in the system calling her "Progenitor." Because Haven isn't just a sanctuary. It's a test. A weapon. A cage. And time is running out. Welcome to the future. Where survival isn't enough... you must remember who to trust.Concluída
The First True Voyagers
It is the year 2330AD and the Earth is in turmoil. Just over two hundred years ago the third world war ended in a nuclear crescendo. A fiery holocaust that saw the deaths of billions on that fateful day alone, billions more followed in the nuclear winter that came after. Now rampant terrorism and anti-technology death cults wreak terrible havoc all across the great blue jewel of humanity's cradle and the corrupt governments of the world tear at each other's throats for what remains. But there is hope amongst the stars, if only humanity could reach out and touch them. Deep in the bowels of a secret government facility, a remnant of the old world before the bombs fell, a breakthrough is made. Faster than light technology, the first functional warp drive. Gathered from across the globe, the best of humanity is cast into the dark void in search of life and purpose aboard a ship capable of reaching the stars. But the deep dark holds many secrets, humanity may not have been the first and we certainly won't be the last. Danger lurks in the unknown and terrors older than mankind stalk those endless shadows in search of the unwary.

Maroli Tango
Nobody expects the Sasquatch Intervention! A Vedic text tells of ancient gods who cast a shadow upon the Earth, shielding humanity from an angry sun. Or, as history books will soon report: when Sol last went micro-nova, Mercury, Venus, and the Anye migration fleet were positioned in eclipse, the latter on purpose. Earth was scorched - but not destroyed. The event is cyclical, coming around again, and fortunately, Vidura's furry pilgrims are still living in the neighborhood. Unfortunately, the fleet is in mothballs. The planets will not be lining up to help. Two million light years away on the planet of the Unseen, a potentially hostile race of bird-folk have demonstrated the ability to get here from there. The natives will have to dig in, hands on Anye technology, with President of the United States Carmen Benequista leading Earth's ruling elite into an age of service to humanity. It's a dicey proposition, at best. Meanwhile, Carmen - sixty, widowed - is in late-life crisis. She has a suitor; human, Filipino/American, 15 years younger, recently associated with the Anye Space Mafia. Good for her, maybe. Entering stage left, the elevated maroli. Labor appliances of the nightmare variety. Egg-shaped grav-lift chassis. Bio-engineered tentacles strong enough to pull your arms off. Self-aware not by design - possessed perhaps by spirits of the dead. And who knows what the maroli are up to? Something wholesome, we hope. Will Earth be saved, only to perish in a war between cosmic rivals? Has the President found true love? Is it rude to attend a party with fighting drones in tow? Action, intrigue, space soap opera - A genre-bending tale of life, love, and uncertain outcomes. ᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲᶲ Click on my website URL, listed on the Wattpad author's profile, for more information.
