The Dome Web.

A society build on the side of a mountain, facing a lake, made from the one material that the planet has in abundance. Glass.
Every few days a storm roll by and glass falls from the sky in thick hot drops. When the clouds clear, harvesters are sent to gather what it they left behind. 

It is raining again. 
Lightning crashes, leaving craters in its wake. Toxic clouds fill the air.

Teyla Challis is caught outside in a glass storm, and she's running out of time.

=========

This is the Final draft of a story I wrote some time ago and then revised for publication. If you want to read the original version, look for "A Sea of Glass and Fire (Original Draft)". The essence of the story is the same, but the buildup, payoff, and everything in between is much more satisfying in this edition. You can, of course, read both and see a little into how I improve my work.

Someday - A Short Story by HowlEngel
15 parts Complete
Life was dull, boring, and mechanical. I’ve always wondered if this would change. If something interesting will happen. I always hoped something interesting will happen. A falling meteor that would destroy half of town, an alien invasion, or even the Apocalypse. Anything, just to relieve me of this monotonous life I lead. “Urgh,” I groaned as I reached over to turn off the alarm clock that sounded like a hundred sirens in the early hours of dawn. The golden sun hasn’t come out to expel the surrounding darkness yet. I figured it would take an hour more or so for the sun to show its shining face, so I decided to eat breakfast and take a bath first. But little did I know that today was the day that my life would change. It was the day I met her. ---------- A short story. Hey guys! This is my first try writing a pure romance story. I hope you'll like it. :D This story will be rarely updated, since I'm busy with school and stuff. So, sorry in advance. ~Just Perfect EDIT: As of 03/29/14 (arranged in this order: dd/mm/yy), this story has deviated from its original "pure romance," into something worth delving deeper into. Quite interesting. And because of this... "something worth delving deeper into," I have decided to continue the story with a PART TWO! Though that will have to wait until after Exile. Or maybe when I get tired of Exile and hope to continue this again. But either way, there WILL be a part two for those who want more zoophilia. Cheers! 03/31/14 (again, in the dd/mm/yy order): Added a simple cover. Will be using this until I am able to draw a better image resembling both of the girl's forms. August 6, 2014: New cover. I like it.

Coldsnap: Harbinger of Ice by SilentSword1010
58 parts Complete Mature
~PARAGON CINEMATIC UNIVERSE: PHASE 1, BOOK 5~ *This novel serves as a concurrent story to both Viper's Bite and Shocker Rising. It does reference some minor events from those novels, but this story may otherwise be enjoyed separately.* "Alpin would rather have Flamestar burn the entire world alive than see a woman ascend the Boreal Throne." -Firebird The Mage Aspects are an otherworldly order of elementalists who hail from another dimension. The four sects that compose them-the Fire Sect, the Ice Sect, the Water Sect, and the Earth Sect-work among the humans of Earth in secret, protecting them from natural disasters, as well as other more trivial crimes should the need arise. Quite possibly the Aspects' greatest pupil so far is the 17-year-old girl named Cassie, given the designation "Coldsnap" by her colleagues. Initially born with a slight vision defect, she has shown immense potential in her ice manipulation abilities, rivaling that of the Ice Sect's leader, Frost King Alpin, who sees her as a threat to his rule; furthermore, her clashing views on humanity compared to his own don't help much, for she believes that the Aspects should form proper relationships with Earth's inhabitants while Alpin thinks they should stay hidden. Fearful that she could usurp him one day, the Frost King banishes her from the Aspects entirely and casts her down to Earth, lying that he is preparing her for a "much greater purpose", when it was truly just an act of envy. Unfortunately, this paves the way for the power-hungry leader of the Fire Sect, Morton Flamestar, to begin enacting his plans to conquer Earth and drown it in an eternal flame, seeing humanity as not being worth the Aspects' trouble. Now, it's up to Coldsnap to unite the other three sects and push back against Flamestar's corruption, before the world's entire population perishes in the fires of his hatred. • Cover designed by @Castiment

Now, watch as your pitiful dimension which has endured for eons.....crumbles to DUST!" -Shade After multiple successful adventures with the Paragons, the Mage Aspect superheroine Coldsnap continues to rule over the Ice Sect of the Elemental Realms with a perfect mixture of respect and discipline. However, the icy icon may be about to face her greatest challenge yet. The Ascendant, the "god" of the Mage Aspects, has gone missing. In his absence, the Elemental Realms' protection against most external threats has started to wane. Elsewhere, in deep space, a plot is underway to invade the Elemental Realms and eradicate the Mage Aspects entirely, orchestrated by none other than Dark Inquisitor Lizala of the Cosmic Armada, a ruthless intergalactic conqueror intent on adding Earth to her growing list of sundered worlds.....and in order to do that, she intends to wipe out a major category of Earth's defenders-the Mage Aspects-in preparation. With the fate of the Realms themselves now hanging in the balance, Coldsnap must team up with her girlfriend Keena, her good friends Firebird and Geode, and Geode's father Sledge-the sole surviving member of the original Mage Aspect leaders-to find The Ascendant and protect the dimension from Lizala's imminent incursion.....and failure could mean the end of the Realms as we know it. • Cover designed by @Castiment

REWRITING! ' Why Do You Shun Me When You Have Fallen? Why Do You Shun Me When You Have Fallen? ' _______________________________________________________________________________ An ominous presence stirred as the Sun's final rays slipped below the horizon, casting the land into darkness. Shrouded in mystery and danger, a new power emerged with the onset of twilight. A cascade of purple flames erupted, their fiery tongues reaching out hungrily to consume anything in their path. The air crackled with malice, and an aura of trepidation settled upon all who beheld this spectacle. None were spared from its wrath, for the purple flames spared no one. Amidst this chaos, a shadowy figure materialized, her countenance contorted into a sinister smirk. With teeth bared like a predator, the enigmatic being reveled in her newfound dominance. Her name was whispered in fear and awe-The Shadow. She possessed an arsenal of lethal weapons, her claws gleaming ominously in the dim light. Fear was foreign to her, for she embraced the darkness that enveloped her. Beware, for the arrival of the Night loomed ominously, signaling the demise of the radiant Sun. The world was thrust into an eternal night, where the moon's pale glow held sway. It was a time of survival, a battle for existence against the encroaching darkness. Those who dared to face the challenge were urged to be resilient and determined. The Sunre, a chosen few who dared to resist the Night's dominion, were called upon to stand firm against the relentless onslaught. But it was an arduous task, one that demanded unwavering fortitude. ____________________________________________________________________________
