"In a world that can only be described as organized chaos, there is peace." A famous quote by the original UWG president, when the war between humanity and extraterrestrials supposedly ended. A quote that brought relief to the world, a sentence that let millions of families finally breathe. Once the war so-called "ended", it proved to be the very beginning. A bomb of unknown type was dropped on islands in the Pacific Ocean, leaving thousands dead, and the world in sudden havoc. Didn't the president of the United World Group say the war was over, just weeks before? As the attacks got more elaborate and closer to dangerous places, such as nuclear plants, the governments of the world stepped up, setting the goal to collect the best military in the world. Half a century later, the war is still raging, except it has been kept at bay in space, keeping earth from being a battlefield. Unorthodox battle strategies have been developed, and technology has advanced faster than anyone could have ever dreamed. Soldiers have practically been bred to fight in the war. There is one actual rarity in this society. Intelligence. Not a physical strength, but a mental strength. Intelligence is one thing Darcy has. It has definitely gotten to his head, knowing that most people can't keep up a conversation with him. It offends him greatly when he meets someone that not only can keep up a conversation with him, but argue and have actual points that make him actually rethink his point. Ender is a failing author, she's never been able to finish a single work, her passion for the particular story falters. She finds herself lacking in brains, where it is in confidence she truly lacks. When the rare moment someone riles her up enough occurs, she defends her point, and she realizes that she started an argument with the wrong person. Two people who are opposites, turn into the best of friends. Two people who are childish and rude, just may save the world we all know and love.

E28 held the entire world within his orange ethereal glowing hands. To most people, being twenty-four years old for all eternity, sounds like a pretty sweet deal. No elderly body aches, your sex drive remains on 100%, and you'll forever be in the prime of your life. Well, in their quest for scientific breakthroughs, our brilliant, overachieving ancestors unknowingly rewrote the entire genetic playbook for our bloodline-long before I was even conceived. By running experiments on themselves, they inadvertently spliced and hardcoded their DNA with something not even they fully understood. The result? Earl Williams the 28th. Born with a delightful grab bag of 5th-dimensional (5D) abilities, including, but not limited to, immortality. And I know what you're thinking. 'Wow! Immortality? That's incredible!' Well, let's see if you feel the same way after falling in love with your soulmate, watching them grow old and die, while you just keep on, existing. Turns out, eternal youth isn't all it's cracked up to be. In fact, it can be less of a gift, and more of a life sentence. Just after Earl's 400th birthday he discovered his 5th dimensional abilities could take him pretty far; literally. As in intergalactic travel. Over time he met other interdimensional beings. Such as Draco, a powerful 4D being who motioned for the ICU to immediately annihilate all of humanity, in order to give Earth time to rebuild its natural resources. Initially, the Intergalactic Chamber of the Universe granted Draco permission to follow through with his murderous plan. However, Earl stepped in and pleaded for humanity's relocation instead of their annihilation. You see Earl himself was earth born. Only as a teenager, did he discover his 5D abilities. He saw the progress humanity had been making. He knew they had learned from their past environmental failures. In his opinion, the people of Earth didn't have to die. All they needed was a new start on a different planet.
