《50 And Above》6. The Rebels' Riposte- Chapter 1

Chapter 1
I wish I could turn back the clock and bring the wheels of time to a stop. This thought echoed through every fibre of my being as I kneeled on the ground and heard the inevitable footsteps approaching. A sad smile came unbidden onto my face as I swept a tear-filled glance at the burnt and smoking corpses that had once been my friends.
Sorry guys, we failed our rebellion.
"You poor kids. Just a few minutes ago you had everything in the world going for you...but then all your dreams were crushed!" Raising my dusty and tear-stained face I stared up at the muzzle of a Lasergun. Peering the face of my tormentor I spat onto his face.
"Shoot me and be done with it! I have nothing left to live for anyway!" I yelled. Grief threatened to overwhelm me but my many wounds made it difficult to even remain conscious. I wanted to strangle the sneering man in front of me.
Dragging myself to my feet, I rushed at him blindly...moments before a fist knocked me back to the ground and I tasted blood in my mouth.
"You may not have anything to live for but you do have something to die for." Smiling evilly, the man hauled me to my feet and whispered "You are going to be an example for those having even the vaguest notion of rebelling against Lord Jonas ever again. I hope you understand," His smile widened "My lord Duke!"

Planet-Eater Reincarnation (in Star Wars)
He wakes up without being able to see, taste or hear. Or even smell! But, after developing an eye for himself, he's able to recognize two facts: one, he is no longer human, and two, he's not on Earth anymore. He's in the middle of an asteroid field, stuck on a moderately large one with nothing around him but endless space. Heck, he's not even in the solar system! And now it's up to him to grow larger and stronger in order to avoid being eaten. Going by the leviathan-sized creatures swimming about the asteroid field, he has a long way to go before he can so much as try to live calmly. ---- Don't let the fanfiction tag scare you off. This only barely takes place in that universe since I like the basics of the lore and nothing more. It will barely feature a single prominent character, and the focus will mostly just be on the main character trying to grow himself out of danger, in the meantime denying the very idea that he could possibly be lonely. The first few dozen chapters will entirely focus on him growing from almost a gnat all the way to a real asteroid-eater. After that, an actual story will appear. Got the idea when I was reading the 2017 Darth Vader comic and my mind suddenly flashed back to that scene in the original trilogy when they're in some asteroid field and almost get eaten by a big monster. I loved that scene, and my inhibitions will no longer chain me. Enjoy, but don't take this too seriously.

A Pirate's Life for Mei
In the future, prisoners are no longer kept in traditional prisons. They're put into comas and permanently dwell within realistic, full-dive virtual worlds. Mei is a journalist and activist falsely convicted of political crimes after accusing an official of sexual harassment. She finds herself in chains aboard a ship in the Caribbean, a prison realm set in 1675, in the age of sail. Oversight is corrupt and the guards are violent. While most prisoners sullenly endure their hardship, Mei knows that this world has a loophole: prisoners can buy their freedom — if they can get the gold. And this also happens to be the golden age of piracy. Yo ho, yo ho. It's a pirate's life for Mei. Book 1 Mei arrives in the Caribbean and battles for her freedom against the devilish English navy, is kidnapped by Caribs, and comes face-to-face with a jaguar. She recruits fellow prisoners in an attempt to steal a boat and flee the prison colony. Book 2 Mei and her crew arrive in Sint Maartin and learn that the French and the Dutch are at war! As Lance, Juan, and Cheeto face their pasts, the crew becomes privateers. Their first prize: a ship full of rum and a week of drunken debauchery in Curacao. This puts them on the trail of Aztec gold buried deep in jungle ruins. An adventure filled with doublecrosses and stealing their first true ship! This is the All Ages version.
