Buckle up, you're in for a rough ride!
Flight AN224 crashes high up in the Tasman Valley in the Mount Cook National Park, in New Zealand.
With many dead and injured, rescue operations are thwarted by bad weather, freezing temperatures and poor visibility. Seismic activity, earthquakes and avalanches continually threaten the passengers while they wait to be rescued.
With every new tremor brings with it more danger.
The Alpine fault line has destabilized and millions of tonnes of snow and ice, now fractured have become volatile and are ready to come thundering down the mountains that surround them.
Captain Benjamin Flynn, with the help from Mountain Rescue, must hold together the surviving passengers and crew while they agonizingly wait for their turn to be airlifted to safety. Time is of the essence, however, some passengers will not wait to be rescued and head down the valley on foot, into perilous conditions.
Amidst all the carnage of the crash, a female passenger is murdered and her partner is also at risk.
Will Captain Flynn and Mountain Rescue save everyone onboard before the unforgiving elements of Aoraki consume the majestic Airbus?
Time is running out.

The Forest
Ernwood Forest is home to people living hidden from the prying eyes of humans; the Winged and their tribes. These people stand no taller than a few centimetres off the ground, meaning that things can sometimes get a little difficult... especially when humans are involved. But life isn't all bad. For the first time ever, Azure and the tribes have a human of their own protecting them from the sinister forces beyond the edge of the trees. As the months of winter roll in, nights are growing longer and snow has settled on the leafless branches. The forest is still. The only humans anyone expects to see are the few that know of the tiny people's existence. But the tribes are not alone in the forest anymore. The abductions begin. The past awakens. And a long forgotten shadow falls over the forest. Azure and the others once again find themselves having to fight to prevent their family from being ripped apart- only this time, things are different. This time, even the humans are in danger. ❤️❤️ Updates: When I can ahh❤️❤️ ⚠️ Mild fear/ violence warning --- This is the third part to this little trilogy :) I would recommend reading the other parts first if you can suffer through them. I can gladly summarise all that has happened so far in a lil note in the beginning if people so desire to skip two stories full of what a younger-me considered good writing :)

WARNING!!!!! 18+ fantasy taboo When humanity abandons Earth in search of survival, Captain Elias Carter and his 18-year-old daughter, Lucy Carter, find themselves stranded on the alien planet Kaelora after their starship, Eclipse, crash-lands. The planet is as breathtaking as it is unforgiving, with glowing bioluminescent landscapes, extreme weather, and remnants of a long-lost alien civilization. With no chance of rescue and supplies running low, Elias and Lucy must work together to endure Kaelora's dangers. Elias, a seasoned pilot haunted by the loss of his wife, is determined to protect Lucy at all costs. Lucy, brilliant and bold, is eager to prove herself, taking risks to uncover the secrets hidden in the planet's alien ruins and strange technology. As they navigate the perils of survival, the two grapple with their complex relationship. Elias's cautious nature often clashes with Lucy's impulsive determination, forcing them to confront their grief, differences, and the strength of their bond as father and daughter. When they discover that their crash may not have been an accident and that Kaelora holds the key to humanity's survival, Elias and Lucy are thrust into a race against time. Together, they must unravel the mysteries of the planet and face impossible choices that will determine the fate of not only their lives but also the remnants of humanity. Kaelora is more than a story of survival-it's a tale of love, resilience, and hope in the face of overwhelming odds.
The Winged
Surviving can be difficult when you're only a few inches tall. Fanged beasts see you as their prey, every creature is bigger than you, and the world seems to work against small things. Not to mention the struggles of getting from place to place... but the worst of it all? Humans. Once a year, every year, summer sweeps over the forest. The sun warms the leaves and the damp melts away until the world of the Winged flourishes. Those warm months are when survival becomes the hardest. Drawn by the beauty of the forest, humans of all kind invade the already dangerous home of the small Winged people. Fear of these monsters is shared throughout the tribes. One sacred piece of advice is known: avoid humans at all costs. They know only how to destroy and hurt. ___ Despite the protests of her close friend, Azure accepts a mission that takes her from the safety of her tribe. Things begin well despite her trepidation of the approaching summer months. That is, until she falls right into the hands of the very creatures she feared. ___ Completed! Beware of some crappy writing and stupid typos :0 Second part is on my account :) :)Complete

He's friendly and flirty and happily admires her from afar, and she's just as friendly in response, once she recognizes his voice. But holy shit, he lives in fear of screwing up on her watch and having all that beautiful snark turned on him.Complete
