One of them, a young boy with crystalline eyes and a geometric pattern tattooed under his left eye, pushed through the rest of the children. "Who are you? What are you?"

Gabriel grinned, then stopped as the children flinched. Right. Bloody teeth. No smiling. "My name is Gabriel and I'm what you could become if you choose."
The boy's eyes widened. "You're... you're a Cy-soldier? One of the Guardians of Salathe?"

Gabriel nodded and tapped the matching tattoo on his own face, then looked up as an explosion sounded in the distance.

Between The Crystals

69 parts Ongoing

The aliens kill every human they catch, or in rare cases, put trackers on them to discover their hidden villages. When Natalie is caught in an ambush, she is unexpectedly released. But there is no tracker. The Saursunes have an entirely different motive this time. *** Run. Don't look back. When Natalie is trapped in an alien ambush, she is unexpectedly released. The first human to ever be let go. The Saursunes invaded centuries ago, and everyone knows that getting caught is certain death. Natalie is confused but grateful to be alive. As a porter, one of the few humans with the rare ability to teleport between special crystal formations, she must leave the safety of her desert village every day to help gather food. When other villages increase their raids on the Saursunes' farms, the aliens retaliate by hunting down every human they can find - except Natalie's group. Instead of trying to kill her and those helping her, they bring them food instead. Is it a trap? Or something else? Natalie isn't sure, but one thing is certain: the Saursunes aren't done with her yet. ------------ Updates are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 11-1pm MST. The story is completed offline, so no worries about it being abandoned!
