The American Dream: An Alternate, Time-Travel Timeline
Due to a mysterious transcendent being, United States Marine Corps First Lieutenant Samuel Kim from the year 2016 is thrown back in time to the year 1775. To make matters worse, he wakes up near Bunker Hill, mere hours before the famed Battle of Bunker Hill is set to begin. Realizing the unique situation he finds himself in, the lieutenant takes the opportunity to change the fate of the battle and ensure an overwhelming American victory. Guided by his "patronizing" "God" and the American revolutionaries, Lieutenant Kim embarks on a journey to help America gain its independence and to ensure the nation uphold its "most promising" ideals from the very beginning. Author's Warning: The story is very rough in the first few chapters (and as some readers pointed out, some parts are laughable, such as "American idealism"). However, the pace and quality of the story improves from chapter four and onwards. You will enjoy the story if you have some interest in history, worldbuilding, and the butterfly effect (along with a few badass characters). So even if you are a bit turned off in the beginning, I promise that the story improves quickly.
8 155Guardium
Year 3184: Earth remains divided. Five years ago, a comet storm known as Orbital bombardment ravaged the Sol galaxy and left many humans scrambling to find new lives beyond the stars. Those who stay face many challenges to keep their world alive. Though splintered, Earth still retains hope underfoot. Gaia, who emerged to save Her people that day. But ever since, she has remained dormant and hidden from the world when they needed her most. That is, until one Illian Jones answered her pleas. Despite his blue-collar occupation as an intergalactic diamond miner, Illian learns he is destined for greater things. He is the only one who can speak to Gaia. He is one of many Messengers who speak for their Gods in the mortal coil. In all iterations, they call their congregation Guardium. When an ancient army awakens to reclaim Earth through means of war, it will be up to Illian to unite his people and prove once and for all that Earth is not yet dead. --- Guardium is Science Fiction like you've never read before. Meet legendary figures, engage in exciting warfare, and learn what it means to be one part of a bigger whole. The perfect cross between Star Wars, Mass Effect, and Greek epics such as The Illiad! Also on Wattpad and Tapas.
8 145Falling
It is often unclear when a thing comes to an end, the world itself no exception. In the event of the world ending, it was both abrupt and unnoticed, something down right confusing to most involved. Due to this confusion, we will quickly cover the short window of events that led to the destruction of the generally known universe, following the primary instigators to hopefully give the whole thing a little much needed context. ... Author’s Note: I intend to release regularly, hopefully weakly, within the planned three arcs. However, it may go on hiatus between arcs, but it should be clear that an arc has ended. Regardless, I currently plan to go on hiatus after the third arc, which is intended to be a natural breaking point. This is with the hope of not dropping off in the middle of narrative, and I am mentioning it now so no one is surprised if there are planned pauses. Content Warnings: I do not plan to include anything I would see as profanity, gore or traumatizing content. However, I do expect my bar for what qualifies is both above some people’s and below others. Therefore, I am including the Content Warnings so people are not surprised when my view is different. If you find something you do not like, I wish you luck in moving on without it farther concerning you. If I was not as extreme as you were hoping, I apologize for not meeting expectations. I have not marked sexual content, since I do not intend to include explicit sexual acts. However, sex and sexuality still exists and may come up as both an offscreen event or subject. Cover Art: The art work is by me, and I will take it down immediately at request from the artist.
8 193Will You Love Me? (A Medieval Reylo AU)
Rey was just an orphan girl of the streets when she came to work at the castle as a servant. Her simple life would change forever when the renegade prince, Ben was brought back to the castle. He had betrayed his parents, his kingdom and his people, Rey was normally very forgiving but she couldn't let go of the hate she felt for the prince. His parents were willing to forgive him, and give him a second chance but Rey wasn't, not after what he'd done. It was bad enough having him in the castle, it only got worse when the king and queen decided to choose a bride for their son... and they chose her. She didn't want to marry a man she had never met, one she didn't love, one she had felt nothing but hate towards for many years, but she has no choice. (This story was not originally written as a fan fiction. I originally wrote it as an original fiction, with original characters. But I wanted to share it on wattpad as a fan fiction. I chose Reylo because I thought the story fit them the best.)1st place winner of The Ace Awards 2020 (Fan Fiction) 1st place The Life Elementals Awards (Romance) 3rd place winner of The Platinum Awards (Fan Fiction) 3rd place winner of The Witchcraft Awards 2019 - 2020 (Romance/ Dark Romance) Honorable mention in The Robin's Fiction Awards (Fan Fiction) #1 in #reyloau August 26, 2019#1 in #benrey August 2019 #1 in #reylo November 2019 #1 in #starwarsfanfiction November 2019 #1 in #reyxkylo November 2019 #1 in #reyxben November 2019 #1 in #benxrey November 2019 #blackartawards2020 #theaceawards2020#ButterflyAwards2020#TheSparklingAwards#spiceoffawards
