What do you do when a tall, unreasonably attractive alien crash lands in front of you?

You shoot him of course. 

─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───

It's been years since a nuclear war decimated the Earth, killing about 90% of the world's population. The ones that survived now live in the ruin of nuclear wastelands with their numbers slowly dwindling due to starvation, radiation, and even murder by a gang called The Deviants. 

Blake West is one of the survivors - sassy, brave, and brutally sarcastic, she takes crap from no one. With her father's past as a cop, she knows her way around a pistol and has managed to survive by following a few simple rules. 

Rule One: Trust no one 

Rule Two: Never go anywhere unarmed 

Rule Three: ALWAYS shoot first

Simple right?

The Debt Collectors War by TessMackenzie
96 parts Complete
Ellie is a soldier in a world without governments. A generation ago, a series of financial crises caused most of the world’s governments to collapse, and left many of the people in those countries in terrible personal debt. Since then, the worst debtor nations have been under military occupation by the troops of the debt recovery corporations, and the worst debtor of all is Měi-guó, the old United States. Ellie is serving in the Afghan Police Action when she receives bad news from home. She is told the daughter she hasn’t seen in years is dead. She flies home from war, upset, to do what needs to be done, but once there she finds out all is not as it seems. Ellie’s daughter is alive and unhurt. She is being held by of one of the many debt-recovery corporations. Held, for leverage, to make Ellie do the corporation a favour. Ellie’s daughter will be returned unharmed if Ellie does as they wish. The son of a company director is lost somewhere in the wilderness of post-debt-restructuring America, and hasn't been seen for three days. The company wants Ellie to go and find the kid, and Ellie doesn't know if she can. The one rule she's stuck to all her working life is to never to go to America, but now she might have to. She will have to, if she wants to save the daughter she hasn't seen in years. This is fairly dark and gritty near-future dystopian SF. ----- Debt Collectors War is now on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QZG1RHI/ Also on iTunes and B&N and other places. Just if that's easier to read that way! But please don't feel obliged or anything, and thank you for looking -----

Earth was invaded one year ago. By them, the Civ'its. They claim that they are only here to repopulate and then leave. We all know that's a lie; they don't plan on leaving or leaving any of us alive. I've escaped them once and don't plan to be taken again. Even if it costs me my life. ★★★ Ashtynn Underwood is a prisoner in the high maximum security prison, USP Ty. When Earth got invaded, her prison was put on lockdown. Each prisoner was inspected to see their use of the Droppers. She escapes with her life, barely, and is on the run with a new friend. After running for a year, her killer instincts are at an all-time high, constantly looking over her shoulder, not knowing if she will live to see the next sunrise. When she encounters a camp of sleeping soldiers, she encounters a man who stirs something in her, causing her to do something she vowed never to do again. She hesitated. ★★★ Rhett Vinson is an FBI agent living in Washington, DC. At the height of his career, he has never believed in the FBI more in his entire life. Until the invasion. Then, his entire life was flipped upside down. Accompanied by his partner and friends, Rhett journeys to Haven, a sanctuary located in Montana. Fleeing from Droppers for a year hardens anyone and makes anyone into a killer, but Rhett still tries to hold onto his humanity. But when a thief tries to steal supplies from him and his Unit, he realizes the thief isn't just anyone. She was the Ghost. And he hesitated.

The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through inkitt or galatea!!!) (some read events may apply) (check update chapter for more details!) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!) (NOTE: THIS IS ITS OWN STORY NOT A CONTINUATION. SAME CHARACTERS BUT DIFFERENT PLOT.)(Last to fall au/spin-off)

Under suspicion of his murder, no one believed Evie's story about the mysterious creature with the black eyes that killed Tom and assumed his identity. Now, trying to survive in the ruins of post-invasion London, Evie's world is once more thrown into turmoil, when she meets the alien that destroyed her life. On the run from his own kind, he offers her insider knowledge on how to defeat the Greys, in return for her protection.
