Game of Riches (ONC)
500 passengers. Only 1 can survive. 7 years ago, Cora's mother died and her cowardly father disowned her to a ship for abandoned children, Station 457, to float through the stars forever. The disintegration of her relationship with her boyfriend, Evan was the last straw. She wants off, but she has no money and no means. Her only option is to stow away onto a prison ship heading for Ameatos. The Captain, who most unsettlingly has a strange fascination with her, announces a game for 1 million effos. She might've been tempted to ride it out, except Evan - who always manages to find his way back into her heart - is on board, and she may be the only one in any position to stop the slaughter before everyone on board dies. With her past still haunting her, it's not as simple as pulling the trigger. The one thing she can't do is admit her father was right.Complete
Star Kissed
When Mandy loses her job, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom – until her plane is swallowed by a strange storm that sends her and everyone else on board 10,000 years into the future. At first, she thinks the scary world is nothing more than a bad dream. The war-torn Earth is unrecognizable. Black fog blocks the sun, and the oceans are dry. Even worse: the planet is inhabited by half-human, half-alien creatures dying from a mysterious disease. Horrified at the thought of spending her life here, she clings to the knowledge that there’s one man who can open the star gate to send her home. As the Naki prince who controls the star gate, Akkadi gets first choice of any human female that makes her way through the star gate. Only by breeding with purebred humans from the past can his race hope to remain immune to the disease and hopefully, develop an eventual cure. With shrinking resources and a raging battle for the human planet, dutiful, commanding Akkadi is less than thrilled at the idea of trying to figure out Mandy, a woman he views as wild with neither discipline nor respect for someone in his position. He’s ready to write her off, when she offers him something too tempting to resist: her body for the chance to convince him by any means possible to send her home. Neither intends for the arrangement to be permanent or to fall for the other. Only when Mandy learns Akkadi’s secret and walks away does he realize he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her – even if it means losing his war.Complete

"Alien: Apollo 23: Dark Side of the Moon" A Alien Universe Fan Story
Decades before Ellen Ripley and the crew of the Nostromo stumbled upon the derelict spacecraft, a top-secret NASA mission dared to explore the Moon's hidden far side.

Trapped hundreds of miles from Earth, the crew must confront a perfect predator: a Xenomorph, intelligent, adaptive, and lethal. As survival becomes a desperate gamble against time, isolation, and fear itself, humanity's first encounter with the ultimate nightmare begins. In the void of space, there is no rescue, and in the shadows of the Moon, terror waits. Content Warning: This story contains intense horror, graphic violence, and gore, including scenes of bodily trauma and alien attacks. There are depictions of extreme psychological tension, fear, and suspense. The narrative explores human survival under life-threatening conditions and includes mature themes of death, isolation, and terror. Reader discretion is strongly advised.Complete

Every legacy has a cost. Every storm has a beginning. When a tragic event shatters their world, a group of brilliant, broken young minds are thrust into a hidden war far larger than anything they ever imagined. What begins as a search for answers soon unravels into a chain of events spanning centuries, planets, and ideologies. At the center stands Fred, a genius inventor- and Max, a force of terrifying intellect and conviction who sees the world as rotten to its roots. One believes in fixing the system. The other believes in tearing it down. As Max's manifesto unfolds through hijacked airwaves and coordinated chaos, Fred and his team find themselves caught in the crossfire of ancient tech, cosmic powers, and the ghosts of Earth's forgotten past. From secret NASA cover-ups to a lost war fought beyond the stars, every clue leads back to an artefact once built in myth, powered by blood, and now buried where no one should find it. But fate doesn't ask for permission. With humanity on the brink and loyalties fracturing, the Retaliants must decide: Do you retaliate to protect the world you know? Or fight to create the world it should've been?Complete
