Pete is the captain of a generation ship that has traveled the lightyears from ruined earth to its destination system. He enjoys the privileges of his rank, unwilling to risk them by attempting a landing on the planet they have been orbiting for years.
  
Ralph, his younger brother, has spent his life in Pete's shadow, tinkering with the half-forgotten technology of their starship. And he is eying the planet below them with longing. He decides that it is time to start the descent.

The starship's name is Last Hope. The final steps of its journey and the first steps on new soil are a deadly dance to the tune of a conflict between the two brothers.

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

Cosmic (18+) by Polkadette

Charlie always dreamed of a grand adventure - of saving her planet. It was why she signed up to be one of the few to traverse across the vastness of space in a ship she'd only heard stories of as a child. The journey taking five years was only a small price to pay for the chance at bringing salvation back to Earth. But when she arrives at the place she thought would be the answer to all of Earth's problems, she finds new problems are waiting for her in the form of very big territorial alien beasts - who seem to take an unhealthy interest in her. There is no escape. {TW: mature graphic content and non-consensual themes - 🍇} **updated once every two weeks most likely**

The Snowy-haired Genius by _Lost-in-stars_

Jason Williams didn't think going out to dinner with his family was going to be any different than usual. Comments about his sexuality, some teasing from his brothers, and lots of paparazzi. You know, nothing strange at all. But a fight with his father made Jason storm out of the restaurant, down an alleyway, and suddenly his life isn't the usual anymore. He woke up in an unfamiliar dark room, and a handsome boy opened his door to explain. The snowy-haired genius was holding him captive until he got what he wanted. Life couldn't be worse. Warning: This book contains mental issues such as depression, schizophrenia, and others. If you're sensitive to that kind of thing, then you should probably think twice before reading this. Of course, if you want to read it and you're sensitive, I'm not stopping you. This book only touches upon the subjects; It doesn't go deep into suicide attempts and voices. Remember despite the hate these mental illnesses receive, I believe you. Mental illnesses are no joke, they're not something I try to use for views. I am not hating on the illnesses. I know it's hard, but they are relevant to the book so I had to include them. If you're feeling depressed, please talk to a counsellor. Or, if you're too scared for that, I'll happily listen and give you advice. Thank you! (I needed to include this because I didn't want people thinking I thought the mental illnesses were stupid. I don't, I promise. I love you, and I need you to keep fighting!)

Eidos by MichaelJKrym

Harmonia is looking for a place to call home. Raised in a world run by the children left behind, with only her sick grandfather left by her side, everyday is simply a struggle to make it through. That is until one day she discovers a secret like none other. On the far side of her sun there remains a place far away from the wars, greed, and selfishness. It is a place of genuine peace. A planet known only as Eidos. So she sets off on a journey across the seas of space. Joined by a wild haired genius named Ro, and the last Bird of Sky, they find passage aboard the S.S. Time, a ship sailed by a Free Trader named Captain Jessi. The crew must traverse everything from the decimated remains of a dead planet, to a lawless asteroid belt, in hopes of reaching Eidos. Only then might Harmonia find the home she has been looking for and the family she lost once before. * Current Artwork by Alexandra Peters * Original/First Print artwork provided by Samuel Silva
