The vast expanse of space presents many opportunities. Will you be an ordinary galactic citizen? Maybe a military hero with many victories under your medals? Or perhaps a notorious criminal roaming the Star systems with the aid of the Edge of Eden?
Regardless, your choice does not matter as this is not your story; this is the story of a group of individuals, a group whose name varied as the Eras progressed. It began with Arlene Dealers then it was the Calamity Knights and finally the Cerulean Association.
They have left their traces in the textbooks of the universe known all over as a bunch of unruly, unpredictable yet remarkable group of individuals, completely unschackled by law, order and even common sense.
On this adventure, you will follow this legendary group in their journey, experiencing their ups and their downs, their beginning and their end...
Are you ready? Good! Listen well, this entire story starts with a peculiar man, a man known as the Shadow of Scuti.
DISCLAIMERS:
- Probably not gonna have a stable release schedule, I work on this whenever I feel like it and won't rush it.
- Story approaches sensitive topics and dark themes, like I'm talking about some REEEAL fucked up shit, you have been warned.

❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete.

Book 1 The Price Of War
The Price of War Centuries in the future, mankind found that they were not alone. They were fortunate that many of the surrounding planets and galaxies were home to fellow humanoids. There were the Volks, who had red skin and six fingers. There were the Anthians, creatures with ears that resembled cats or dogs. There were the Nixes, but not much was known about them. And this was just to name a few. Either way, the humans made peace, formed alliances, and waged war with these species. However, that changed when beings of insurmountable power entered their side of the universe. The newcomers destroyed scores of cruisers that dwarfed even the largest of the galactic cities. Humans and their allies struck back with super ships of their own--flying juggernauts and leviathans armed with the most advanced technology and weapons--all to push back the gargantuan force. These foreign iron mongers became collectively known as Goliaths. And the Earth Alliance Force created a new class of super weapons to battle them called the Dreadnoughts. And thus began the first of many Dreadnought Wars.Complete
Alien from the past. Mate for the future.
✨ Book 3 from Extraterrestrial Encounter ✨ -*- They always told me I belonged to the sky. Not because I was special or different, but because ever since I was a child, I would spend hours staring at the stars, searching for answers no adult seemed willing to give me. My name is Selen. I'm nineteen years old, and I work as a research assistant in one of the oldest observatories in the colony. I live among star maps, coordinates, and telescopes. But sometimes, when the world falls asleep and I'm left alone beneath the vault of the sky, I feel... something. An invisible gaze, warm and distant. As if the stars weren't the only ones watching me. I don't remember much from when I was a child. Just fragments: a distant roar, strong hands lifting me from the mud... Blue eyes that didn't belong to any human being. They told me I was in danger, and that someone saved me. But no one ever wanted to tell me who. And yet, tonight... as the sky opens above me and the forest whispers ancient words, I have the strange feeling I'm not alone. Maybe this time it will save me and take me to safety. -*- [ I'm still trying to figure out if this is going to be a long story or just a glimpse into how things have settled down in the near future. Maybe you can help me. If you have any idea leave a comment. ]🤔🤷 🔴 As usual beware! This story will be marked as Adult story.

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.

Xenoman
Xeno yearns to have access to The Nth Dimension like The White Boys, famed telepaths who suffered brain damage when they made contact with extraterrestrial intelligence. Out of work as a bartender since the Shoki Pao dance club mysteriously burned down, Xeno's lackluster lifestyle is getting harder to maintain. The public pill silos that dispense Sunlite, a one-size-fits-all mood elevating drug, haven't been refilled in months, so the citizens of Metropa turn to designer drugs like Black Magic, an addictive knock-off with terrible side effects. Having survived an overdose of Black Magic, and successfully revived by Drinama, a brain implant slipped to him as a Mickey at a job fair, Xeno earns an entry level position as an agent for secret service organization Intellegella. Garry, his handler, introduces Xeno to the industrial version of the black box, allowing Xeno's pineal gland access to synthetic sensory perception with the turn of a dial, along with the Noumenol patch, a skin absorbed drug that stabilizes his vital signs so that he doesn't suffer a cardiac arrest. Xeno's initial mission is to test the black box on the field, under Garry's watchful eye, and to locate Trianne, an ex co-worker, ex model, ex pole dancer for the Shoki Pao, gone missing and showing signs of spontaneous human combustion, an emerging side effect of Black Magic, and a public safety hazard. All he has to do is bring Trianne back to Intellegella for treatment. It's that simple . . . according to Garry.Complete

In a world where love is never a requirement of mates and violence is the norm, Selese must survive and persevere with a man whom she knows little about. A man who seemingly knows everything about her, even things she doesn't. It's a dangerous thing being mated to the King. Amongst the purple sky and grass sharp as shattered glass, this is the story of the Alpha King and the human who wasn't. *Notes to my readers: This story is complete, I will have chapters update twice every week until the full story unfolds. ^^ I also created a webtoon for this story just search "Alpha King & I", and it will pop up. I go by Csin on Webtoons. The Webtoon is free. :) I haven't updated the webtoon in a while, I will be redoing it and completing it eventually so please be patient. I also plan to make a fully edited version of this story into an e-book. Lastly - there is an audiobook on Amazon if you want to support by buying it. I have another story too on Amazon that is fully edited called Lucifer's Angel -under my penname "Zorro Csin". Feel free to buy that to support as well. I have many more stories planned and I will be finishing the other stories too, one at a time. >.<Complete
Fragile..?
(Creepypasta X FemReader) Some say I'm too sensitive but truth is...I just feel too much. Every word. Every action. Every energy. Everything just goes straight to my heart. My life was never really a perfect life but it was at least decent. But its always quite possible things will turn out far better than they appear so I always look forward to tomorrow. But recently things have been horrible and there's this feeling in the pit of my stomach that I feel I should listen to. Who knew listening to a gut feeling would've given me something so powerful... ~~~~~~~~~ Author's personal favorite part of the book: "Man, do you know how fast angels are? Like, daaaaaamn! Can you believe I am feeling the tiniest bit exhausted? WOW!" ~~~~~~~~~ The original photo of the cover belongs to SunProjects, credit goes to them for the artwork! I just edited it to make the cover, all photos aren't mine unless said otherwise. Thank you! First published: September 18, 2021 Yea this is an X Reader, yea this is a creepypasta story- what of it? Take note, take this into careful consideration! The Contents within this story will disturb you. I am basing the killers as real life criminals, criminals who do not care what age you are to hook up with, criminals who don't care about your personal boundaries, who won't ask for permission or be your usual fictional Creepypasta characters. But I wont be that fucking rude, I'm mixing them with fiction and reality. More in Ch1. ╮(─▽─)╭Complete
