There is no such thing as a good side and bad side in a war. We are both the good and bad side. It just depends on your perspective. At the end of the day when the sun goes down we are still the murderers who took the lives of hundreds and sometimes thousands. We are still the ones who have orphaned children. And you call us saints but no, soldiers are murderers who hide behind patriotism and lies. -Lorelei Jameson WARNING THIS IS A SEQUEL. Go read Journey before you read Ascension. Lorelei and Indiana escape from Headquarters only to find out that the war is in full swing. even though the Colony is getting more and more recruitments everyday they still only have a fraction of the amount the Extorians have.

Someone is keeping secrets and they might decide the fate of the Colony. The plan to end the war just might work but it is the most controversial topic in history. The people of Cambaar split into two sides over the final battle. Lorelei still doesn't believe it will work. As the war rages forward relationships unravel. Sanity is lost. And blood is spilt across the forbidding land. They finally begin to understand what it means when they hear "The price of war isn't just blood". 5- nuclear war (6-17-19)

Code Of Conduct by cookiedough2018

Amelia Wells was well known in her small town as a loner but a well respected single mom. She wasn't anyone special by any means... on the outside, she was a hard worker and she provided solely for her daughter. No one ever seen or heard about a man's involvement. She never had a boyfriend. After taking on a correctional officer job, she had wondered if the training would prove useful against a dangerous threat that she worried would soon reappear. Eric Ford was a rugged, handsome, bearded, tatted, dream come true. He was also her shift supervisor. After taking on a project together, she decided to take a bite out of the forbidden fruit. Would it all come tumbling down or would it turn into a delicious wine?

Just the janitor | Yandere heroes x male reader by Axe_InTheRogue

Rushed ending BS, rewrite in progress. Go read UnknownFate25's stories instead lol In a world of superpowered beings, it's natural some become heroes to try and better the world such as Scarlett the Bold, Janice the shield, Mary the healer, and the one everyone fawns over: Stardust. As cheesy as it is to say, "With great power comes with great responsibility." So they formed the hero's guild under the name: Justice. To keep not only themselves in check but any future heroes who come to take up the mantle of preserving peace and justice. And then there's you; No powers, no great feats of achievement. Just a regular person trying to go about his days worrying about the future rather than saving lives. After hearing your mother complain about your need to get a job after graduation, you come across an advertisement online that grabs your attention. Not knowing what the future has in store for you, we can only pray god will have mercy on your soul. -------------------------- Hey guys welcome back to another story I hopefully won't delete after a week again! I've got nothing else going on, and I'm seeing a lack of male reader yandere stories recently. The yandere tag is filled with girl stuff that I can't read lmao. Anyways, I've got basically nothing going on outside of work so expect frequent updates. Until I hit burnout, but we'll find out how it goes. But I do hope you enjoy this story! There are some warnings as it'll get dark, fairly quickly. Trigger warnings I guess could be: Torture, manipulation, gaslighting, love bombing, kidnapping, and a slight amount of gore. I'll update this as I add more chapters. #1 MaleReader 5/23/24 #1 Gaslighting 5/23/24 #1 Yanderegirl 5/23/24 #1 Hero 6/12/24

Helpful reminders as you read: (subject to change & be updated w/the release of chapters) Main characters: 1. Charlie (woman) - She has light features, recessive genes. She is a mistake in the genetic pool, yet b/c of her lineage she has all of the rulings of an aristocrat. 2. Aero (man) - Dark features, thick eyebrows. Colonel and Charlie's fiance. 3. Rhys (man) - Charlie's best friend. 4. Senator Holm (man) - One of many senators that work directly with President Malcolm Bouchard. 5. 273 (man) - Peat. Dark features. Chocolate brown curls. Tattoos whipped out of place. Emerald green eyes. Vocabulary: * Plebeian - a lower class individual, the lowest class. Marked by light physical features and high spirits! * Aristocrat - an upper class individual. Marked by dark physical features and perfect skin. *Peat - an individual that has both plebeian and aristocratic blood, usually from rape. Marked by a number on the side of his/her neck. * Defect - a derogatory name given to nobles when they appear less than average. * D.O.C. - the day of correction set to kill off those that don't look perfect * Corpse flower - a flower that has been rumored to possess the components to correct the genetic error found in Sybaran. * Silver knickle - currency in Nephraim * G-shot- the shot that corrects defects. * The Oval - is the center of the world, the government. President Malcolm Bouchard works here. Basis and facts throughout the story: Pieces from the Old World are forbidden. Those with lighter hair follicles and iris colors are considered problematic; skin tone is no longer the issue. Every race has the ability to be born with lighter features, so there's no prejudice against race. Just physical features. Sybaran is the continent; Nephraim (home village) , Salem (stricter division, where Aero was born), Mieich, and Shankrai, are the 4 subdivisions (countries) of Sybaran that we have so far.
