In a war of man versus bug, who would you choose? Man, bug, or yourself? And why are they always fighting, anyway? This story is posing more questions than it answers, but it will thrill you throughout. If you like soldiers fighting alien monsters, I encourage you to read on.

This is a short story from the Masters of the Future universe. I began developing Masters of the Future few years ago as an open universe for any media, with special focus on computer games - a compelling story engine built in a playable way. Since the original idea of developing a game in this universe has been put on hold, I have decided to move it in a direction of literature for the moment. If you find it interesting, feel free to give me any feedback. We could even discuss some potential cooperation on the universe development, especially if you are a writer or a graphic artist.All Rights Reserved

Caged With The Alien Warrior by rosinghwrites

I thought being abducted and experimented on by aliens was the worst things could get. But I was wrong. Because when I tried, and failed, to escape, I promised to protect an alien-human baby. And then we were thrown into a new cage. And my cell-mate? He's big, scarred, brooding... and we're expected to give our captors a baby of our own. Sci-Fi Alien Romance [18+]

Galactic Downfall: A 20,000 Years War(Book Series 1) COMPLETED ✅ by Roropogeh30

--- **"All life never learns until their last breath."** Two hundred seventy-one years ago, Type III Humanity forged the Lania Intergalactic Alliance, uniting with five other intergalactic empires in a bid for peace. However, this fragile harmony was shattered when they encountered a vastly advanced civilization near the Boötes Void-known as the Mantis, a Type 3.3 civilization with seven formidable allies. Tensions between these civilizations ignited, and by the year 1,000,000 AD, a devastating war erupted. For 20,000 years, the conflict ravaged the galaxy, involving 1,023 other galaxies and 234 quadrillion soldiers. Advanced technology and medicine were wielded in a relentless struggle that nearly annihilated 78% of humanity, leaving a scar that took 2,000 years to heal. Amidst this enduring chaos, a young commander named Alexandron rises from the ashes. Leading the 2nd Division Ship Brigade, Alexandron harbors dreams of ascending to the highest echelons of power as the Supreme Leader of the Human Super Galactic Federation. As the war continues to unfold, his journey may redefine humanity's fate in a galaxy still gripped by conflict. ---

Steven has returned to Beach City for a while to catch up with all his friends and family. But a new alien threat has shown itself after a war in eons past.

The Alien Commander's Surrogate by g_bee_writes

For over a hundred rotations, my kind has thrived under the use of surrogates. We are a male-dominated race, a warrior race, with a single objective....to dominate the universe. To do this, we have suppressed our mate bonds, forgotten the traditions that used to bind us to the mates we once worshipped. But all the changes now. Abandoned and alone, we are forced to expose our surrogates to life aboard a military vessel. My surrogate is the first we awaken. I know I'm strong enough to resist the pull of the bond. To avoid the human female who carries my son. I have to be. Otherwise I put every Trenzian warrior on this ship at risk. Not to mention the other surrogates and younglings still in hypersleep. But what happens when I can't resist my instincts, and my female is threatened. Will I embrace the passion and ferocity of a forgotten time? Or do I stay to the path that was laid out before me, even if I risk losing them forever?

The Abyss of Time by IanReeve216

Twenty years after the end of the Cyborg War, the last cyborgs try to hijack a starship on its way to terraform an alien world. They want the new colony to be a cyborg colony in which they will rebuild their strength and practice their way of life. During the fighting, though, the starship is damaged, so that instead of travelling light years across space it ends up a billion years in the future, alongside a planet Earth that is near the end of its life. The cyborgs, momentarily defeated, leave the ship in a captured landing craft and go down to the planet, but before they go they sabotage the ship so that it is no longer able to support life. The crew have no choice but to follow them down to the planet where they have to fight not just the cyborgs but also forms of life a billion years more evolved than humans. Creatures that have grown tough and hardy in an attempt to cope with the increasingly harsh conditions that prevail there. As if things weren't bad enough, there is conflict among the ship's crew as they fight to decide which of them will be in charge and how they will meet the challenges facing them, and even if they survive all this they will still have to deal with the discovery of the ultimate fate that awaits all intelligent life in the universe...

The Worlds best weapon against these hideous creatures from space are the giant Mech's and their pilots who stand on the front lines and fight a never ending stream of U.N.E.'s to protect their lands, nations, and friends from harm. Two young pilots from very different worlds come together at a secret weapons facility as the next generation of Mech's are ready to hit the front line. One is a young British pilot born and raised in combat who is haunted by horrible memories, while the other is an American pilot who has never seen combat but has never found anything or anyone that can best her. Can these two young officers set aside their differences and pride and do what needs to be done? Or will they falter when it matters most?
