Set a year after the events of Resist.
I am the Commander of XCOM, the protectors of Earth. In 2015, we failed to prevent the alien invaders from taking over. For 20 years they have lied to the people while XCOM lay dormant, gathering intel. Central Officer John Bradford rescued me and together we took our home back from the invaders. Now he is missing.
It didn't take us long to realise that the forces on Earth was merely a taste of what the invaders were capable of. There is a greater force out there and we have very little time. For now, XCOM's resources are focused on uniting the world in a future fight and disposing of the invader's forces who still reside.

All of My Tomorrows (COMPLETE)
The abduction of the Commander was nothing short of a death blow to any chance that Humanity could repel ADVENT from Earth. It was like the flame that kept the Human Resistance ablaze had been snuffed out. John Bradford took the failure of XCOM and the cause for what came to be called Unification Day completely on his shoulders, promising that if he ever again found her, that he would never allow any harm to come to the Commander. After he rescues her from a sarcophagus, the man who waited two decades for his mentor is now faced with an impossible chance-and forces the Commander to question if she is willing to risk the fragile future of the Initiative for a gamble at a happiness she never believed to be possible. Hey, since you read this far can you like and comment on what you read? Favorite if you like it, I would appreciate it, but I want to hear what people think of this, because I'm trying a lot of new things, even if it is "just" a fan fic (I don't believe that writing is "just" anything, you can tell based on how much work I put into this). Again, thank you, it means a lot to me, we're going to be doing this for a while. So... hi? Hello.Complete
Fight For Home
*proceed with caution. It has a high rank and lots of reads but is not my best book. Please don't judge my writing skills based upon this book. While you're here, however, check out my other book Don't Blink?* Our planet was taken right from under our feet. At least, that's what we were told. We had no choice but to believe the Commanders, after all, they run the Ship. They wiped our memories. They have control over us. Earth was taken from us, and the Commanders intend to get it back. But the thing is, I remember. _________________ Under editing Cover by @RajanGaggiArora Book 2: Fight For Life now published! Highest rank: #3 in SciFi (As of June 28th, 2016)Complete
Beyond MxB
3518 A.D. Exactly 1500 years ago, Earth had been pushed to its limits and threatened to collaps on itself if we didn't act in time. Mankind didn't know what to do anymore and had declared our home doomed, our days numbered. That was, until the supernatural society decided to step up and take actions in their own hands. Creatures we thought never existed suddenly appeared out of their secret societies to safe Earth, to erase our mistakes and begin anew. They succeeded but parts of the world vanished for centuries due to the climate being completely out of the normal before it settled again and left the world at peace again. But not for mankind; all the other races had grown to dislike us, hate us. A witch hunt ensued and now only few of us are left. I've been running all of my life to remain free and alive, to survive and be as happy as humanly possible. My name is Thorn and I'm part of the last humans on our planet. Sadly, I'm not entirely human...Complete
Half-Breed
Being different biracial was hard enough in this time and age. Try being a half-breed. Ya, that's right. I said it. Half breed. Half human and half alien. I won't go into how I was made, but I can say that I wasn't able to fit in either world. Sure, I had lived in a place counted as home, but I didn't belong. I wasn't like them. I was their weapon, something that could protect the world from the alien race that tried to destroy them. Would I choose to live with the people that I had grown up with and be a weapon? Or would I choose to be the prisoner because of what my parents did? I mean, I didn't ask to be born, but I was made. And, I chose to protect the world that was trying to be taken over. Just for the kids, though.
An Anthems Return (anime x malereader)

Now, the embodiment of good has returned, waking in a world far different from that he had died in. Yet not knowing of who he really is.

The Way It Is
I am not from this planet. Hell, I am technically not from this galaxy. However, that doesn't change the fact I am here now, and my job is to save what I can on this forsaken planet and what's left of its inhabitants. The problem is that not everyone wants to be saved. I know what you're thinking. You can't save those who don't want to be saved. I bloody well agree. The ones who sent me don't care what you or I think, though. All they care about is numbers. They need a certain success rate to continue to get funding for their "expeditions" and "peacekeeping" efforts. I use both terms loosely here. However, that's what they put on their records, and it's what sounds good and looks suitable to their investors. So this is the way it's going to be. So be it! Oh, did I forget to mention the Universe decided I was the lucky girl to help find the one person who could save us all from self-destruction? Yea, that is a shitty idea, but once again, no one cares what I think.Complete
