Freedom
The Future The forest was burning now. Not with flame—but with data. Memory cascaded from the wreckage of the Custodians like ash, leaking into the air, soaking into bark, seeping into soil. The trees remembered. The ground remembered. Time itself remembered.

Break out
By the time the cart finally came to a stop, Avea still hadn’t figured out a plan. The portal would close at the zenith tonight, and she didn't have much time left. She sat in the creaky cart as it screeched to a halt, in an dark abandoned warehouse. Where, rust had slowly crept across the metalworks, steadily eroding its once-sturdy foundation. The only sign of movement was the metal crates rumbling in on the train tracks, their screeching echo haunting like a ghost train.

Through the Distant Universe Chapter 0 - Where it all began. AI-Generated.
I stood in the middle of a room, alien as a dream, where every cell of my body screamed in pain—sharp, searing, as if my bones had been split apart. The blow that should have shattered my spine pulsed beneath my ribs, reverberating with a dull echo. I remembered the ship: the crack of metal, the blinding light, the cold steel piercing my flesh. I waited for the end. But it didn't come.

Her Prey, His Captor
“Well, this is just fantastic,” I said, dabbing the paper towel on my split lip, wincing in pain as my blood soaked into it. The Quad and I were brought to the Dean’s office for what I assumed was to be a rather intense interrogation session. Hell, I’d be lucky to even remain a student after that. Still, getting kicked out of college would probably be the best-case scenario in this sort of situation. “I’ve never been in here before.” I said aloud, the Quad turning to stare at me. I ignored her and spent a few moments looking at the couple of bookshelves that decorated the walls around us. “Eh, it’s about what I’d expect. Right down to the fat goldfish in a bowl looking at me with its dumb little face. Only, I thought I’d be in here for some sort of praise, or for an award. But no... I’m here because of you.” I said, not hiding the disdain in my face as I turned to look at her.

Chapter 04 | Starbuilders
"What you do?" Nothaar probed with concern. "Ifu and Syraaq do something bad? How fix?" Instead of answering him, Syraaq changed the subject - as she seemed quite apt at doing - by querying, "You've said a term a few times now, and I'm wondering what it is. This 'Sky Shift' that you've mentioned, could you explain to me exactly what that means?"

Echoes Beyond the veil. Content Warning.
Chapter 1: The Last Breath I never thought it would be my last day. The morning began quietly. The soft hum of the city outside my window, the faint aroma of brewing coffee, and the dull, familiar weight of routine settled around me like a blanket. I reached out for my favorite blouse—the one with tiny blue flowers embroidered across the collar—and as if my hands were betraying me, the steaming cup slipped, spilling dark coffee over the fabric. A sigh escaped me, frustration bubbling beneath my calm exterior. I grabbed a towel, scrubbing ineffectively at the stain, cursing myself for the careless mess.

The Rat
Avea was still clutching the stone when she awoke. Blinking away the cloudiness of her vision she could just barely make out the lining of the steel walls that ran along the ceiling, where a loose flickering over light hung. Her body felt heavy with a deep aching in her bones. That was when she heard the two hushed voices above her, Avea followed the sound of the voices and felt the tension leave her body realising she hadn't left Brigg's bunker. Recognising the blurred outline of Brigg's hunched body and Bebop's spherical bodice floating in the air beside him.

The Past
The past The shriek of the sirens peeled through the broken night as Wisp dragged Sera across the gravel lot, her boots kicking up sparks. Behind them, the Custodians swarmed like hornets—slick black suits, glowing eyes, and that awful hum that always came before they struck.

The Raw Code
Opening: “The Rawborn” She woke up screaming. The sound tore from her throat like it had been waiting there for years—raw, primal, louder than the hum of machines and the distant thunder that wasn’t thunder. Her hands clawed at wires, slick with gel and panic, as the cry echoed through the sterile chamber like a banshee trapped in glass.
