《Lieutenant Garrett》Dear Chris,

Chapter Eighteen
Dear Chris,
The next day, I saw that Addison was still at the house. We must have cried ourselves to sleep last night.
And everything came back to me.
Lena and Kara were leaving today. Leaving.
Tears began to form in my eyes once again and I heard a knock at the door.
Addison sat up and rubbed her eyes as I got up to go and open the front door.
It was none other than Lena and Kara. Their eyes were red and puffy. They had been crying.
I pulled them into a group hug before they had to leave. It was a tearful goodbye and they were of to the airport.
Addison and I planned on staying home today so we stayed in our pajamas. We didn't want to go to the beach, and we didn't want to go out.
We made some breakfast and watched Disney movies I had so much fun when I was with her. Even though the reason she was here wasn't all that great.
My week had been and I mean
Mum is in a coma, my best friends are moving to different continents and my boyfriend is on a nine month tour in the military.
Speaking of which, I have a letter to write.
Thursday September 11th 2011
Dear Chris,
Well, I'd be lying if I said my week has been great. Mum still hasn't woken up, and to top it all off, Lena moved to England to go to Oxford, and Kara moved to Australia to go to the U of Melbourne. Addison and I have been getting closer and I love her like she's my own sister. She's all I have right now. I'm glad she's here and we're bonding don't get me wrong but, the circumstances are kind of awful. I've been thinking of getting a puppy to keep me company but I figured that you would be better at the training thing than me so I'm gonna wait until you're home. I miss you. I've sent a picture of me for you to take with you and hopefully it will keep you out of trouble.

The next day I received a response from him.
Friday September 12th 2011
Dear Nicole,
I'm so sorry to hear that your week has been bad. I really wish I could be there. But just think, only 271 days left and I'm coming home for you. I'm so glad you are having fun with Addison, it means the world to me that my two girls are bonding. I miss you more than you could ever imagine. I love you. I'll be home soon.
Love,
Chris xx
I closed the letter around my fingers.
I received only one letter after this one and that was it. He stopped writing. But I continued to write him.

The story of how a Cultivation Universe was Conquered by an Interstellar Weapons Platform
What do you get when you cross a world of Magic, Cultivation and Legends with one of Science, Logic and Overwhelming Firepower?\o\ Chaos! /o/Alpha is a sapient AI who's job (and Passion) is the exploration, exploitation and eventual colonization of new worlds for the Federation, a Galaxy spanning empire of Science and Technology. When an unexpected accident deposits this literal War Machine on a planet full of Cultivators and Wizards, chaos and insanity ensues. What Alpha and those around him don't know, however, is that he will soon become the focal point of a millennias long plot that holds not only the fate of the world in its balance, but possibly the entire Galaxy.Ancient Enemies awaken as the Powerhouses of the world converge with Alpha at the center. Get ready, its going to be a wild ride. ------------------------------------------------------- |_+) Come, Read the Story. Watch Worlds be Conquered. (ALL HAIL YOUR NEW ROBOT OVERLORDS!) See Arrogant Young Masters be slapped in the face (by a 170mm Rail-slug traveling Mach 3). Find Grand, Valuable Treasure (which gets put into storage, because what use does an AI have with pill herbs?) Explore Strange and wonderful lands (that will be shortly stripped mined and exploited for all usable resources) |_+) JOIN US!______________________________________ ALPHA-555-12-4412 (Designation: Star Conquer).One of the 5 most powerful and advanced AI-driven Interstellar Weapon Platforms ever built, was programmed with a very simple mission. Travel the stars.Seek out new and hospitable Alien Worlds.Establish a Forward based for their Master's eventual colonization.And, If necessary, crush any and all native resistance it might find. It was a Mission that Alpha took seriously and dedicated its entire being to.However, when Alpha flies a liiiiitle to close to a Blackhole and gets sucked in, it is thrown into a situation that no amount of programming could prepare it for. Now stranded on an alien, yet familiar world, full of dangerous beasts and strange phenomenon its database has no record or explanation for, Alpha must find a way to not only survive, but thrive.And eventually to do what he was built to do. Conquer._____________________________________________________Some things to expect from this Story 1): MC is an AI programmed with a very specific goal. Thus don't expect him to think or act like a human might. That being said, he/it is not bloodthirsty and evil either. He is specifically programed to work with, and indoctrinate Native species when possible. He is not a demon lord come to end the world as they know it, but a Conqueror come to subjugate. 2): MC won't be getting some kind of Humanoid form or suddenly start trying to think like a Human. Although an AI, he is perfectly Sapient, and fully understands both what he is and what is mission is. He is capable of adapting and changing his thought process, but at the end of the day, the Mission is what matters to him. He doesn't see the need or even WANTS to be Human. The only exception to this might be Humanoid body doubles or puppets used in places his main body isn't able to go. 3): This story is a mix of both Sci-Fi and Cultivation novels. MC with NOT be able to Cultivate themselves (for obvious reasons), but using his technology and knowledge, will be able to adapt and repurpose the strange and exotic resources you might find in a Cultivation World to increase his power and keep up with the powerhouses of this Universe. 4): The Intention of this story is to alternate between it and Parasite King, so I don't get burned out writing either one. As such, updates, while not slow, won't be to quick. Bare with me for awhile till the wheels get rolling.

A Different Kind of God
The city that never sleeps is one like no other. You could look at the wolves on Wallstreet trying to make a buck or you could look at the more fun things, the more supernatural things. There are all manner of these things in the underbelly of New York whether it be gods, demons, monsters, or even vampires. Now, where does Liam fit in? ... This is a Percy Jackson/Elderscrolls Fanfic I came up with in my free time. After writing 16 chapters I had some people DM me about co-posting it to different sites. Currently, I have it up over on Fanficiton.net and Spacebattles but as I saw this site allows fanfiction, and I use this site a lot, I decided to start posting it here as well. Feel free to enjoy it or hate it, I'm just writing to have some fun. If you're wanting to read it on either of those two sites I have the same name on both.
