It was just cardboard. Just junk. Just a wild dream taped together in a backyard garage... until it wasn't.
Ray and his two best friends were building the world's greatest rocket out of scrap metal, old crates, and sheer imagination. It was supposed to be a game-something to fill their last day of summer. But when Ray climbs inside and presses a glowing blue stone into the dashboard, everything changes.
The rocket launches. The cardboard becomes metal. The cockpit becomes real. And a voice-Luna-tells Ray he's not just flying to the moon... he's been chosen for something much bigger.
Now, trapped inside a ship that keeps growing by the minute, with an AI that's too smart for its own good, Ray is headed to meet the mysterious "Maker." But the deeper into space he travels, the more he realizes: this rocket wasn't built for pretend.
It was built for a purpose.
A purpose he never asked for.

Samantha can't dream anymore, she is apart of the cause to save the human race. The year is B35 and the Earth is becoming overpopulated every day.

They have tried making underwater pockets so people can live under the sea, but the underwater pockets are too fragile to maintain and easily every citizen can drown. Hope was almost given up. Until scientists found a planet only couple light years away that is a sister planet to Earth. No one has ever been on this planet before and is unsure what will people find there. So on the year B18, all children born within that year were taken from their families and sent into a spaceship to be trained and prepared for the landing of this new planet. Samantha and her squad are flying through space and preparing themselves both mentally and physically for the adventures of this new planet. No one knows what is going to happen when the spaceship lands on this foreign land.Complete
Under the Shadow of the Moon
Luna Vis woke up one morning, or rather one night, to the dim light of the moon. It was a day that started like any other, but turned out unlike any other, setting off the chain reaction that set her life ablaze for a second time. For six years she had lived a new normal after her life was uprooted, but now everything was on the cusp of changing again. Almost exactly six years prior, the world as it was had changed entirely for half of the world. And over a century prior to that, the world had burned. The world burned in silver and in gold, and out of the ashes rose a phoenix: a new dawn for civilization. New cities, new ideas. New weapons. New... insurance policies. Now Luna and her friends are learning first hand what being on the front lines of a war is like. Now they are finally learning what it was the government had kept so secret for six years. Now it is all up to them, but more specifically, up to Luna to stop The Eye and the White Sand from ruining everything. Only months away from her sixteenth birthday, she is handed a purpose that may just be worth a sacrifice. Soon the world will be normal... whatever she chooses that to be.Complete

Getting abducted by aliens was something you had never expected to happen to you. Sure, you had never really doubted their existence, after all the universe was that big that the possibility of creatures living beyond the realms of the Earth was very likely, yet it made no sense to you to suddenly find yourself in the situation of being imprisoned in a spaceship like an animal, the aliens conducting strange and painful experiments on you. But when you meet an utterly captivating alien that rescues you from those cruel experiments and makes you feel loved and at home, will you give in to fate doing everything in its might to draw you close to him? Oh, and I forgot to mention- you'll also have to save the whole universe (and possible other dimensions) from that alien's father, but let's just see where the story will take us... - !!!CURRENTLY UNDER EDITING!!!Complete![Seven Sins [JJK]✔️](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/182307579-256-k631422.jpg)

White Crystal Butterflies | Wattys 2021 Shortlist | ✔
❖ 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. Wattys 2021 Shortlister. Standalone sequel (Rocks Can Dance) coming in 2023. Comments and critiques are both welcome and appreciated. I write characters from many different backgrounds, with many different experiences. If you share those traits and find that I have misrepresented anything, please let me know!

The Joy Thief
Willa stayed in her bed when a spaceship landed near her home and the interstellar invaders she calls Ironhides abducted children from her neighborhood--her sister among them. Now, along with her best friend, Isaiah, Willa will risk a journey to the Earth colony on the planet Nexpernon to bring her sister home. He has no name, only a rank, Fifth. He's been kept in the dark about most details of his mission. But a few directives hum in his mind: take all essence of joy the humans have in them, and then leave them where they fall. His job is to protect his Commander, and to ensure the portal his kind uses to get to Earth remains a secret forever. Thrown together in a vehement, unfamiliar situation, Willa and Fifth should hate and fear each other. But when Willa kills his Commander and Fifth deserts his unit, their survival depends on trusting one another. And their ability to work together might be the only hope to restore joy to all of humanity.Complete
The Red Mafia
The year is 2364 and a teenager approached a broken down robot in a field. The debris of a spaceship lay scattered around the area, barely recognizable as a ship. The teen knelt down and pressed the big "power on" button on the robot. The vintage T.V. began powering up... "Hello?" A humanoid sat on the ruins of an abandoned building. Moss and plants engulfed the stone walls, returning it back to nature. What this building once was, no one modern could know. A duo approached, one waving to the person with a pipe-like arm. The other looked like they would rather be anywhere else. Despite this, the three left together. Now a team of unlikely heroes: a child of a multimillion-dollar cooperation C.E.O., turned acclaimed assassin, an old assistance droid with a stolen soul, and a misplaced child from a magical mossy world. The three, forced to work together by an otherworldly deity, will try to stop a universal leader with a villainous agenda and a god complex. How the trio will cope? I guess we'll find out.
