The skimmers engines purred softly as the Dark Ace left Cyclonia with a small squadron of three trusted Talons, the hidden compass leading the way. Anymore and they would be noticed quickly by any skynights in the quadrant, which they didn’t need.
Time was of the essence here, as the Dark Ace was sure Cyclonis would try and increase the energy intake so she could do more things than just talk and lie down.
Cyclonis hated showing a weakness, and more than once it had come at his expense.
Yet he was just prized enough to stay her right hand man, especially in times like this.

Ular had been traveling for a few hours now and knew the edge of the Bezdan Forest was close by how thin the canopy was becoming. He sighed, his paws heavy with fatigue. He slowed down looking for a spot to lie down and rest for a while, when he heard the sound of flapping wings above the trees. He looked up in the gap of the canopy to see Terbang coming toward him, the air making him float. Ular sat down where he stood and waited for Terbang to land safely.
Terbang’s clawed feet touch the soft ground and he clutched a foot full of the ground while he folded his wings and looked up and Ular. “Sir

As soon as Luka was close to Geek, her heart started to pound in her chest. She had never seen a Red Burillian before and the slight physical difference between him and Blues made him look one hundred times more intimidating. He scowled at her immediately and scoffed "You're the mechanic?! Whoever composed this team needs to be shot. The only thing you look like you'd be useful for is a meatshield." he yelled, causing her to jump.
He didn't even bother with Teaka, he already had enough of the inspection and was ready to choke out whoever approved his team members but there was no time for changes.
He took his place at the front of the group and stood with his hands folded behind his back.
"As you all know, I am your KRU Commanding Officer. You will address me as Commander Von Strouse.

KRU - Chapter three - page eleven As all the soldiers in the KRU division lined up in front of their Commanding Officer of their battalion, Luka was already agitated by the look of his team. He had been given five humans and only two Burillians. In his mind, that was unacceptable.KRU - Chapter three - page eleven9 hours ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
He walked his intimidating walk down the line of his battalion, sizing them all up with his intense glare, which was almost always accompanied by the scowl he had perfected over the years. The first soldier he passed with a glance was a tall, dark-skinned woman. She had straight, shoulder length black hair, an hour glass figure underneath her leather jacket and tight skinned military attire and, her most noticeable feature, had blue eyes.
Luka looked at her profile on his hand held tablet. Her name was Elora and was known as the best combat fighter pilot in the Northern Quadrant. He scoffed at the thought of her reputation as he knew females did not make good combat

Old Meets New, Chapt. 2: Doctor, Doctor"So how exactly did you find your way here?" Sam asked to the two humans sitting across from her in her attic, the female patching up the male's arm as they spoke. In a few short hours, the android had already learned a good chunk of info about both of these life-forms. Their names are John & Casey Tramer, 22 & 18, respectively, they're siblings, and they were originally from Lansing, which her memory chip recognized as a long-lost city located within a territory called Michigan.

Jim watched through the huge telescope as another meteor burned its way
into the earth’s atmosphere. Something about this one was different though. The tail was shorter, and not the cold, icy color of the rest. It was spouting bright red fire. And not only that, but this one was also an odd shape. He could almost clearly make out precise, angular definitions, like a purposefully built structure rather than random space debris.
“Hmm… strange.”
He made a quick note in the logbook with a deep-thought scowl creasing lines on
his forehead. Just then his colleague entered the premises, carrying two styrofoam cups of coffee and a clipboard squeezed in the crook of his elbow.
“Did I miss anything good?” He asked as he carefully set the steaming cups down.
“No. But there is something strange about this latest meteor.”
Jim peered through the telescope again. His colleague, Harry, slurped coffee

“ … And the oxygen masks still haven’t turned up anywhere. No one’s admitted to taking them, either,” Leta was saying, sounding as exhausted as Fiearius felt, as she walked slowly beside him down the hallway toward the bridge. Normally her presence would have been something of a nuisance, but Fiearius felt simply too tired to protest. Now that the ship had been stuck for ten days, he was starting to go off sleep.
And he wasn’t the only one. Below deck, Cyrus was a mess -- covered in ship oil, shaking from all the coffee he’d consumed, tearing apart the engine piece by piece. Meanwhile, Fiearius took

A middle-aged woman with blond hair and too many lines in her face for her age woke to the odd tickle of a dragonfly landing on her nose. She flicked it off and sat up. Off in the distance was a little rowboat. She could see a hand dangling over the side of the boat.
The closer the boat got, the more she could see. The hand was thin and dark-skinned... and missing the last three fingers. They looked like they'd been eaten off by something.
Her ten-year-old son, always curious, took the little coracle out to the boat and began to scream in terror. Devonna pulled him in by a rope and looked into the r

Alice bolted to her feet and sent her chair flying. Burning with embarrassment, she turned and walked to the window.
"I-I'm not crying!" she stammered while rubbing her eyes, trying to sound tough. "I'm…just glad you're all right. Sorry I woke you."
Randel sat up slowly and turned to look at her. This wasn't the first time he'd awakened, but it was the first time he felt some of his old strength return to his aching limbs.
But you were crying…for me, he thought. Were you really that worried?
After a moment he said, "Okay."
Was that a twinge of disappointment in his voice? Alice looked back at him and immediately reg

Red Beret (excerpt)I woke to the pallid morning sky. I glanced in the direction of the window located above my bunk and inwardly groaned. The pale light had, as always, found its way through the rips and tears of the Outpost’s makeshift curtains, illuminating the slumbering forms of the seven Lupines that littered the floor and hazardously-constructed bunks.Red Beret (excerpt)4 hours ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This

Chris the 'little guy,' part 5Chris was still massaging the gigantic acquaintance, who remained still as he explored her back looking for other ‘sweet spots.’ He smiled as she let out another moan of pleasure, “you are great at this!” Shannon praised and giggled as the little man pressed into her back again. Chris looked over to Mira, who was still speaking to Will and Ken and looked back at the fur on Shannon’s back. Chris sighed as he realised that he had been reduced to little more than a toy, he heard movement from behind him but decided to focus on what he was doing and so did not turn, “I’ll take it from here little guy” Will chuckled as he carefully picked Chris up and placed him back on Mira’s palm, “you seem to be doing well at making friends” Mira observed, “yeah, I can’t believe you were panicking so much!” Ken chuckled as he stroked Chris, he remained silent for a few seconds as he realised that the beach had gotten crowChris the 'little guy,' part 54 hours ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This

Resonance -- ProlougeIn the year 2022, a major change took place throughout the world. 10 years ago, during the day of the rumoured apocalypse, when most of the world was expecting the worse, the world didn’t end. Instead, a comet flew past during midnight, followed by a sky full of shooting stars and a light which resembles the Northern Lights. The sky was fully lit, so bright that the night became day. The whole world saw this phenomena and it went on for about an hour. When it finally stopped, it left the whole world in awe. However, on the day after, only half the world’s population are able to wake up, the rest died in their dreams of the spectacular show last night. The survivals where relieved and called themselves lucky. That is until they realise that there they had undergo a change.

Another mark was scratched into the wall with a bit of stone. 21 tally marks and counting, engraven in the damp, earthy stone, waiting for him to go mad.
Loki’s hands shook as he scraped at the rock. With the freezing environment, sudden haircut, and prison diet, he knew he was going to get sick.
It felt like his throat was on fire. Water left it feeling dry, like it was a desert soaking up every bit of rain. It only relieved it for a couple of minutes before he restarted coughing like a jerking marionette. When he wasn’t coughing, he was hiccupping. He felt rather stupid, but after about an

Explosions rocked the burning ruins of Iacon as a terribly wounded Optimus Prime dragged his bleeding chassis out of the fallen architecture that once was the Iacon Hall of Archives. Crawling into his command post, he grabbed a ledge to pull himself to his pedes as he limped over to the damaged communications grid. Energon seeped out of a myriad of abrasions and threatened to spill more as he forced his weakened structure to operate under normal status while he could feel his sensual impulses starting to wane drastically. Opening a private channel to the underground Autobot base, he began t
