The first chapter of the second book of the Scorched Earth trilogy!
The Earth's in crisis as an alien empire begins to take root.
The Drahux Empire is tightening its grip on the Earth, military and law enforcement agencies are in disarray and all of Earth's communications are jammed.
Jackie Blackman, member of the clandestine Society of Science, knows she can do more to help, but only if she can bring herself to share her secret.
Kat Palmer, former leader of Project: Guardian is in hiding, but it's not just the Drahux soldiers she's avoiding. She needs to return and join the fight but going back isn't as easy as she thinks.
A couple of months have passed since Dawn Armstrong's alter-ego, Fade confronted the shadow man. Now she must become the champion against the darkness she wants to be, but is she prepared to face her fears once again?
Matt Braddock, a superhero wannabe going by the name of the Sentinel, seeks to do more than just fight the next 'bad guy'. He wants to become a true hero.
Meanwhile, Liberty Girl is doing all she can to save people from the Drahux and try to instil hope. Just like her hero, Fire Angel would.
Each needs to step up to the challenge before it's too late.

SHE WAS RAISED TO STAND SILENT, he had to scream to survive. We are all a product of our environment, but they're not as different as they think. They are both scared, hurt, longing for something. She's an assassin, a prodigy, the granddaughter of the Ra's Al Ghul. Her worth came down to the blood on her hands, nothing more. He's a survivor, a lucky pick. Supposedly saved by Bruce Wayne, a man with no capacity for love. All he wants is someone to understand, all she needs is someone to listen too.

[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.
