DO YOU FEAR DEATH? OR WHAT LIES AFTER IT?

"Darkness is most beautiful when it sparkles."

The solar system is in chaos. Billions lie dead in the wake of a tragedy inflicted solely by the actions of the late Empress Validus. And her legacy could very well be the end of humanity, for the warhead that destroyed an entire world, the warhead she sent out as a warning, did not malfunction, it was reprogrammed by someone or something now racing towards them at a speed faster than light...

But instead of uniting to confront the greatest challenge to ever face the human race, fear and insanity has gripped the survivors and thousands are still dying in the guerrilla warfare that rages on and over all five remaining planets.

It is now up to former slave Aliya Soter and rebel pilot Miriam Ferox to try and save mankind from extinction.

But will anyone be able to reason with the genocidal aliens just days away... or is this the end of everything?

The Last Ship (18+) by NikolaiWolfe

Highest Rank: #1 Alien 6-21-21 WARNING: This contains Xenophile (Alien / Human smut) If you don't find interest then that, this is not the place to be. Thanks! Or Skip the chapter. 18+ ______________________ The year is 3999. Nearly a thousand years after a alien infection was set loose by the intelligent lifeforms know as Irinaut. No one knows exactly how they were able to make such a infection, but it was capable of destroying nearly all life on Earth. Those who couldn't hide or make it to the ships to escape their home planet, were left for the Irinauts. These alien lifeforms were capable of controlling human bodies, infecting them with their black dust, impregnating fertile human female's, and growing the Irinaut's massive companions, the Yeti's, a less evolved version of the Irinaut. Earth is gone. Nothing more then a ball of dust. After the people fled on ships, they traveled to their new hope. It was a place of solitude. The human race was able to flee from the foreign infection, but for how long? Luna was frozen on the ship. For nearly a 200 years, their ship had traveled. Many people had been placed in a cryogenic state. That of which kept them from aging as they made their way out of the infection. For them, a place of safety, The Solar Sun. The Solar Sun space ship was the closest landing unit in the solar system. Many others would have to be traveled to after refueling and preparing for another two or three centuries of being in a cryogenic state. For Luna, the girl hopes that space would be her escape from the aliens that destroyed their Earth, but that was only the beginning. Upon arrival, the ship is found infested. Luna and a small team of scientists had come in hopes for finding a cure for the strange virus, only to find the virus had taken over most of The Solar Sun, following a few escaped Irinauts. The Solar Sun is their last hope, and their last escape from these beings, but what's to be found there will change everything.

Empress Fallen (Through Darkness Book I) by Mithrandir01

DO YOU TRUST YOUR LEADERS? WOULD YOU DIE FOR THEM? "The hostile stench of blood was everywhere, crouching in the sweaty air like a pride of Ignian Leech Jackals, reeking of death..." It is the year 7056. In a solar system hundreds of light years from Earth, the broken and weary human race is suffering under the totalitarian rule of a corrupt Empress. Seduced by her own greed she hides a deadly secret that could bring about the annihilation of humanity. Will the greatest conspiracy of all time go undiscovered? But revolution is stirring. Slave girl Aliya Soter and rebel pilot Miriam Ferox are plunged into a daring race against time as a mysterious anomaly hurtles towards the solar system. The slave colonies are revolting, the stock markets are poised on the brink of collapse, and overhanging everything are the forbidden rumours of a mysterious resistance force... Can they bring down the Empire once and for all? But all is not as it seems. And with this simple realisation it becomes clear, this is just the beginning of something far greater. ***You can now buy Empress Fallen on Amazon, iBooks and Barnes & Noble on paperback and Kindle*** ***Stay tuned for information about Book 2, Erebus Risen!*** Enjoy!

The Final Test by jayseejewel

Earth was overtaken by the Calumnia ten years ago and if it weren't for the alien Occisio race who saved the remnants of humanity, Indi's race would have gone extinct. Now, at the age of sixteen, Indi and the other surviving children are about to complete their training and return to Earth to kill the monster that destroyed their world and killed their parents. However, the children on the Occisio's spaceship have been dismissed one by one in training tests and only a few of them remain. Will Indi prove himself skilled enough to become a soldier? Or will he fail humanity as his parents did? This short story (in 13 parts) is a love letter to fans of Ender's Game and Maze Runner. (I may eventually turn this into a novel but for now, I hope you enjoy this 10,000 word story about hope and overcoming one's weakness.) [This story will appear on other websites as well, such as Royal Road.] #43 IN POST-APOCALYPTIC

Star Kissed by LizzyFord

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.

The Human Condition by ellarose12

They say it's the one thing that will save us, that our humanity is the one thing that separates us from them. But I'm not so sure anymore.   In 1999 the vampires stopped hiding amongst us. Our fascination with the supernatural was growing and they were welcomed into a world that had only ever feared them based on ancient fables, Hollywood horror movies and best selling novels.    It wasn't the millennium bug we had expected, but life did change as the clock ticked over into a new year and it was never the same again. ----- Lucy Dames knew better than to go out after dark. Vampires were no longer a creature of fantasy, accepted as part of everyday life - they were just as alive as the next person. With a new racial division in society she was torn as to which side to stand on, knowing humans were just as cruel as vampires could be human. None of it could prepare her for the issue of the vampire mark she has on her wrist and three years later it's time to find out just what it wants with Lucy and more importantly will she come out of it alive? *contains swearing, adult themes and violence* [ this is a first draft and requires editing ] © 2013 ellarose12

Human by 141katiemanwell

Katie is no one special. To her, she was a shy insecure girl that didn't have a clue of what to do with her life. To her friends, she was a silly girl that almost always never made sense. And to the world, she was nothing. But that all changed quickly. He grins, "Come with me." He says, now standing only feet away from her. They now stand in the middle of their people, and everyone's eyes go to the Empress. "Come with me, and I'll make you my queen." Another step, "Come with me, and save your friends from my own" And another step, "Come with me, and be mine." He's so close, their toes touch, the only thing blocking them from fully touching. He whispers for only her to hear, "Come with me and marry me. We'll rule the world together hand in hand. Please, come and be my queen." He says, and when she looks down, she sees his hand, and she knows how much he wants her to take it. Knows how much she should take it. How Will They Be Able to Save the World When the World is Already Destined to be Destroyed? *Highest Rankings* #12 - aliens #3 - Smurfs #13 - space

When the winged creatures fell out of the sky, most of humanity was wiped out in a single day. All of those over the age of thirteen were consumed, their souls lost to eternal purgatory. After humanity's fall, the winged creatures claimed their world. The surviving children were spared and imprisoned into secret locations.

Aurora is a nanny at one of those locations. She has helped to raise children for the last eight years, since her own capture at twelve. On her twentieth birthday, she faces the most heart-breaking transition of all; a transfer to the King's palace. Knowing she must now serve the winged creatures as a source for food, she stands before King Cain, the most feared winged creature and leader of all his species. The moment Cain feeds from Aurora he knows only two things. One, her soul is the purest energy he has ever tasted, and two, he could never hurt her again.
