The canine chronicles: Rise of the Canines (part one)
Seven teens. Seven puppies. A destiny they never asked for-but must embrace to become the heroes they never thought they'd be. When seven teens-each carrying silent battles and broken pieces-are pulled together by seven glowing puppies, they're bound to a destiny they never asked for. In the sleepy town of Oakridge, where nothing ever changes, the sky fractures open during a freak meteor shower-sending pulses of strange energy through the Earth and awakening something ancient. Each teen, haunted by unspoken wounds, finds themselves bonded to an abandoned puppy glowing with mysterious power. These dogs aren't just companions-they're keys: to secrets, to powers, and to a destiny none of them chose. As the teens and their pups begin to unlock abilities that echo their deepest truths, a terrifying force rises in the shadows-one that will stop at nothing to destroy their bond and erase them entirely. To survive, they must stop pretending. To rise, they must stand together. Even if they don't know how. This is a story for the quiet ones. The feelers. The outsiders. The storm survivors. Those searching for a place where their silence is understood-and their pain isn't too much. Maybe this isn't just a story. Maybe it's a mirror. And maybe, just maybe... it's yours, too.

Aliens have been here before... one was left behind. Eighteen-year- old Zoe must find him and she doesn't have much time. Along with the alien, a beacon was left on Earth which when activated, opens a portal through which the aliens will return. The extraterrestrials visit Earth to usurp Qi, Earth's vital energy. If the extraterrestrials go too long without Qi, people on the alien planet will die. However, when Qi is extracted from Earth, the weak and elderly of Earth will die. The beacon can only be activated by the alien who was left here and only when the planets are in a particular alignment. The next time is only two months away during the Autumnal Equinox. When Zoe discovers who the alien is, it's a complete game changer because the alien is closer to her than she ever could have imagined. The story takes place in a small town surrounded by forest near the Oregon-California border. Of course it does, after all, the highest concentration of Qi is found in forests where ancient redwoods grow. You might be wondering, what is Qi? In Japan it is called "ki," and in India, "prana"."

The Silent Depths
In a world submerged beneath endless oceans, humanity has adapted to survive. Cities of glass and steel hover above the water, while others thrive deep beneath the waves. Evolution gifted humans extraordinary powers to navigate this new reality: some command water, others harness bioluminescent energy, and a rare few possess abilities tied to the senses. Fifteen-year-old Kai is an orphan who lives in the sunken slums of Aquarion, scraping by on odd jobs and scavenging in the ruins of the old world. His unique power is both a gift and a curse-his hearing is so sharp he can detect whispers from miles away, even hear the faint hum of ocean currents. But Kai has a secret: he cannot speak. His voice was lost in a traumatic event he barely remembers, leaving him isolated and misunderstood. When the annual Aqua Trials are announced-a grueling competition held in the floating city of Zenith with a prize of 50 billion gold-Kai sees his chance to escape poverty and start a new life. The Trials are open to all, but they are perilous, designed to test the limits of human ability. For Kai, the stakes couldn't be higher.
