  The Koprulu sector was rich in two things, Terrans and scrap metal of long dead and forgotten which was excellent for you since you could sell the latter to the former without any communication issues or such. Since you had managed to get out of Earth you had pretty much been selling scrap metal as a freelance job mainly because the sector was littered with the stuff and that people sold it in a currency that you could use on Earth. Since then you had been expanding the operation somewhat, getting bigger ships and better tools to cut all the ships to pieces, with you being able to sell more parts as a result, moving around and grabbing various parts of ships such as engines and parts of a computing system which you were able to salvage but if you could believe what you had seen on the scanners I’m the ship, you had just hit the jackpot in terms of rare parts. That jackpot was known as an Adjutant, a sentient but not sapient form of AI that your fellow Terrans used as Navigators, ...

  You don’t really know how long you’ve been in hell for now be it mere days or months and months but you certainly weren’t in a rush to leave and you had no need to leave as it hadn’t even been a second in the mortal realm as you slept and walked around the many environments of hell, some of them looking close to places you had seen in the mortal realm and some looking so utterly alien to you that you could barely comprehend them. Of course, you never had to seek out these environments yourself, your mother would always wait until you were deep in your sleep before being teleported away into a cavern or a creek or a crack in the environment, waiting somewhere nearby to wait for your arrival with you stirring around inside of your bed before you woke from your slumber and took a look at where she had placed you this time. You pushed your head away from your bed, feeling the mattress move somewhat as you looked up to see a bright red sky with small clouds of grey moving around them,...

  It had been so long since you had escaped from the planet Aether, a long doomed planet that you couldn’t have left without your co-pilot and lover who you had named Dark Samus, mainly because she looked like a replica of Samus Aran, legendary bounty hunter and enemy of both you and your lover. This was because the first time you had found Dark Samus she was battered and destroyed, her leg being smashed and several parts of her armour being broken as well, the woman left to die inside of a ruined planet before you found her and eventually healing her up to full health. Since then you had gotten onto her bioship, you and the woman flying through space trying to find Samus Aran to exact your revenge on her for hurting your lover as well as the fact that Dark Samus seemed to be obsessed with tracking her down to finish her off.  This time you were right on her trail, the woman heading to a planet called Phaaze, home to all of the Phazon which is what powered the bioship and what...

  The forest at this time of year was dark and foggy, the cold air pushing against the skin of survivalist Ashlia Scott and making her shiver sounds somewhat as she moved through the forest on her own, her phone service going out of signal about two miles ago and her blade coming out about one mile afterwards. The moon was low in the sky with the moonlight shining through the fog and the trees and given out as much light that was necessary to see, the sky being a dark void devoid of stars despite how far she was at the end of the night. Usually, survivalists would come to forests like this to do some challenge or some record-breaking stunt but Ashlia had different reasons for coming here, ones that were shrouded in rumours and urban legends, ones that would make you sound crazy if you even said the name of the creature she was trying to find. That creature’s name was the Wendigo of Kalkultas forest, described by the local tribes across the area as tall, horned creatures, crawling a...

  Your head was banging as you opened your eyes, your vision blurry as you pulled yourself up onto your feet, looking down at your hands seeing that you had scars which were constantly oozing blood out of them, your hands being particularly blooded as you thought about the sequence of events that had occurred. You were flying over Epsilon five nine doing a geological survey until one of your engines suddenly combusted over the atmosphere, ripping off one of the wings as you did so which made it impossible to control the ship. The ship quickly went spiralling down into the planet, burning up in the atmosphere which took out the other wing of your ship, the ship slamming down into the ground of the planet before your head impacted the control panel, making you fall unconscious before waking up god knows how long later, your ship damaged and your body covered in blood and various bits of metal. The first thing that you had found that had survived was the medical scanner, with only the...
