Soldier Stories

She feared him more than anything-until he became the only place she felt safe. After escaping years of abuse, Lina found a fragile kind of peace scrubbing floors in a mercenary's mansion. Quiet, invisible, and broken, she kept her head down and her voice lower. Especially around him. Killian. He kills for a living. He is a powerful, cold-blooded mercenary, a wealthy man who built his empire off blood, fear. He owns a powerful private military company that operates in the shadows, answering only to the highest bidders. He commands killers, closes deals, and never makes mistakes. Until her. A glance. A flinch. A wound she tried to hide. And suddenly, he was watching her closely. Quietly. Like she was a puzzle he didn't mean to touch... but couldn't stop obsessing over. Killian: "You blush like that again, and I swear I'll pin you against this wall just to see how deep it goes." He didn't know how to be soft. She didn't know how to be wanted. But in a house full of violence, he saw her. And he started to change. And soon, she was everywhere in his mind.

After transmigrating into the World of One Piece, Noshia obtained the Identity Reversal System. By reversing the faction alignment of manga characters, he could earn points as a reward, and the stronger the person whose alignment was reversed, the more generous the reward. Noshia found this quite interesting. Imu and Nika had been switching from black to white and white to black every day; was it finally his turn to make a switch? As luck would have it, this world had never lacked people whose faction and inner nature were completely at odds with each other, had it? There were those who wore the mantle of Justice, acting righteously while carrying out the most brutal judgments; and there were those who called themselves Pirates, notorious for their ferocity, yet upholding the most sincere code of honor. Then, let me be the one to put them where they truly belong. I will take control of the world, starting by turning Marine Headquarters into Pirate Headquarters. ...... Several years later, at Mary Geoise. Looking at the urgent intelligence report just delivered by the CP agents, the Five Elders were furious: "Just as expected, Sakazuki is a criminal from Ohara! He infiltrated the Marines for years, all for the sake of destroying the World Government!" "His intentions are unforgivable! Issue a massive bounty on him immediately, and order Admiral Noshia to lead Vice Admirals Ace and Robin in hunting down this wretch!"

This book is a cinematic narrative nonfiction military biography of a World War II soldier. Built from military records, unit histories, photographs, family history, and historical research. *** In 1944, James W. Foster left the mountains of East Tennessee and entered a war unlike anything he had ever known. Serving as a half-track driver with Company C, 48th Armored Infantry Battalion, 7th Armored Division - the "Lucky Seventh" - James crossed into Europe and found himself in the middle of some of the fiercest fighting of World War II. From the battlefields of Northern France to the brutal fighting in Holland, the days grew colder, the fighting grew harder, and the men around him became more than soldiers. They became brothers. Then came December. As the German army launched its desperate offensive through the Ardennes, the 7th Armored Division was thrown into the fight. James and the men of Company C were sent toward Belgium, where snow-covered forests, artillery, armor, and infantry would collide in a battle for survival. For James, one day would change everything. The Last Track Out tells the true story of an ordinary American soldier caught in an extraordinary war - the places he went, the men he fought beside, and the experiences that followed him long after the guns fell silent. This is not the story of a famous general or a celebrated hero. It is the story of one soldier. James W. Foster. And this is how his war began.

This is the story of an unlikely romance between two individuals from vastly different cultures. One, a young man of high status from a world far off, with a kind soul hidden behind an orderly countenance. The other is a troubled young Princess, who prides herself on perfection and ambition to follow in her father's footsteps. In the process, they would change the world. (OCxAzula)

In the weeks following the end of the conflict on the radioactive wasteland that is Copper-9, and with the world left quiet in the aftermath, a new force would emerge from beyond the boundries of the universe, bringing with them tools, weapons, identities, and plans unknown to anyone save themselves. However, they would quickly discover that Copper-9 is not as dead as it seemed, and that this mission will be anything but routine. What began as simple investigation would lead to consequnces that would span countless generations and lead to the founding of a Great Power from the rubble of that dead rock. (No ai. Doll and J centric. No shipping) (To explain the basic details: This story was created with the intent to introduce major conseqences, resolve certain aspects the original show either didn't address or outright ignore, and provide a more hopeful, albeit complex conclusion to the events on Copper-9. As well as provide a greater focus on worldbuilding/civilization that takes root in the aftermath. Somewhat akin to a potential season Two written using elements of my own future works. I don't claim that this would be better than many other similar stories, and especially not the original Murder Drones. However, I hope that its focus and premise would be enough to stand out compared to many others. This story WILL contain plenty of war and bloodshed. As well as themes, ideas, and pinciples mildly contrary to the original work. But I hope you all might understand my reasons for doing this in the context of this tale and the wider implications surrounding it. It's not a power fantasy after all, but an excercise in worldbuilding, mythmaking, and how something that can start small and lead to great outcomes.)

Hilda Salcedo is a sixteen-year-old girl who has just graduated from high school, carrying nothing but what she can manage on her own. Raised in a poor community by an abusive mother who constantly chooses the wrong people over her, Hilda grows up learning to endure rather than expect anything better. At school, she is overlooked, dismissed, and treated as if her future has already been decided for her. On the day that should have marked a beginning, she is thrown out of her own home. With nowhere to go and no one willing to take her in for long, Hilda is forced to move carefully through a world that offers little help and even less certainty. She takes work as a household helper, saving what she can, keeping to herself, and learning not to depend on anything that can be taken away. She does not dream. She prepares. Between long days of labour and quiet nights of study, Hilda begins to build something no one else sees-discipline, endurance, and a way forward. When she comes across an opportunity to apply to the Philippine Military Academy, she takes it-not out of ambition, but out of necessity. It is structure. It is distance. It is a way out. With nothing to lose, Hilda Salcedo chooses the harder path. Not because it promises success-but because it gives her something she has never had before: A life she owns. And once she leaves, she does not look back.
