The Firefly is set on a journey to Craufees, a primary production planet in the Sol Sector. Three weeks before arrival, the crew wakes up from stasis, preparing themselves for landing. However, during the voyage, the ship's AI, Alfred has been corrupted by extensive exposure to an unexpected solar implosion, forming a dense, isolated nubula and creating traits that humans believed computers would never have: sentience and the will of self-preservation. One by one, the crew will be picked off by Alfred in rather unfortunate "accidents" in order to protect its darkest secret...

Xenoman by avery1966
39 parts Complete
Xeno yearns to have access to The Nth Dimension like The White Boys, famed telepaths who suffered brain damage when they made contact with extraterrestrial intelligence. Out of work as a bartender since the Shoki Pao dance club mysteriously burned down, Xeno's lackluster lifestyle is getting harder to maintain. The public pill silos that dispense Sunlite, a one-size-fits-all mood elevating drug, haven't been refilled in months, so the citizens of Metropa turn to designer drugs like Black Magic, an addictive knock-off with terrible side effects. Having survived an overdose of Black Magic, and successfully revived by Drinama, a brain implant slipped to him as a Mickey at a job fair, Xeno earns an entry level position as an agent for secret service organization Intellegella. Garry, his handler, introduces Xeno to the industrial version of the black box, allowing Xeno's pineal gland access to synthetic sensory perception with the turn of a dial, along with the Noumenol patch, a skin absorbed drug that stabilizes his vital signs so that he doesn't suffer a cardiac arrest. Xeno's initial mission is to test the black box on the field, under Garry's watchful eye, and to locate Trianne, an ex co-worker, ex model, ex pole dancer for the Shoki Pao, gone missing and showing signs of spontaneous human combustion, an emerging side effect of Black Magic, and a public safety hazard. All he has to do is bring Trianne back to Intellegella for treatment. It's that simple . . . according to Garry.

Completed! #1 in government conspiracy as of 10/19/18 #6 in outbreak as of 10/10/18 #7 in corruption as of 8/12/18 #62 in apocalypse as of 8/7/18 #11 in government as of 8/9/18 The year is 2213. Everyone was evacuated from the home planet over 150 years ago. Our planet was dying, it was only a matter of time before our race was wiped out. We now live on a synthetic planet designed and built by our ancestors who came together from all parts of the globe to devise a plan to save us. We have lived peacefully for over a century.. Until now. Our lives were threatened when a mysterious and deadly virus broke out, killing entire communities at a time. The council says that they have a plan; they said that in order to prevent the death of more innocent people they will test every man, woman, and child for signs of the virus. Any person found to have been infected will be quarantined, the ones who die will be given a proper burial while the ones who survive are deemed carriers and are to be sent to the home planet to prevent further outbreak. I was prepared for the people I know and some I love being taken away for the greater good, but I never would have expected that among the list of people being taken from my community, that I would be one of them.. I survived the quarantine. Now for the survival of my planet I, and the other Carriers must be sent to the home planet. I'm going back to Earth. (This is not based on The 100 but there are similarities.) (Some violent themes, but other than that is entirely clean.) Please comment if you have any questions or concerns. This is a first draft so it is definitely not perfect yet.. Thank you! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Where'd you learn to do that?" I asked about the intricate knots that he had tied so swiftly. He paused. "Jail." I glared at him in shock at what had just come out of his mouth. "Seriously?" His straight face broke into a grin. "No. Boy Scouts."
ALIEN: EREBUS by EthanWRichardson
20 parts Ongoing Mature
Set between the events of Prometheus and Alien: Romulus, Alien: Erebus is a harrowing tale of survival, corporate greed, and the unimaginable horrors lurking within the deep reaches of space. The story follows a new crew aboard the USCSS Erebus, a research vessel originally sent to explore a mysterious anomaly on the fringes of known space. Decades after the ship's disappearance, the wreckage of the Erebus is discovered by a salvage crew seeking to cash in on the corporation's latest lucrative find. As the crew begins to investigate the abandoned ship, they quickly discover the truth behind its fate. What was supposed to be a routine mission becomes a nightmare as they uncover the remnants of a dark experiment-one that was directly linked to the Prometheus expedition. A dangerous alien organism, born of the Engineers' ancient experiments, had been secretly transported aboard, causing the Erebus to crash in the void. The crew, desperate to escape, failed to destroy the creatures, and the ship became a floating tomb. In the wake of the ship's rediscovery, the salvage team, along with a handful of survivors, must navigate the haunting ruins of the Erebus as they face an all-consuming terror that has only grown stronger over the years. But what they don't know is that the horrors aboard the Erebus were not just biological-they were also tied to Weyland-Yutani's insidious plot to weaponize the Xenomorphs, using the alien DNA to manipulate human physiology and enhance their military assets. As the creature within the ship awakens, the survivors must battle their inner demons, face corporate betrayal, and contend with the terror that stalks them through the ship's wreckage. But their escape may not be enough. In the darkness of space, no one can hear you scream-especially if the Xenomorphs have learned to adapt. Will the creatures be eradicated, or will humanity be left to face a new, more terrifying chapter in its history? Only time will tell-but it won't be easy.
