SHADEWHISPER

In a not-so-distant future, Earth is thrown into chaos by a weird alien ship that crashes and starts leaking spiritual energy all over the place. This energy messes with the planet’s ecosystem, making everything mutate—animals, plants, even people. It’s like nature’s gone wild, with some folks getting crazy supernatural powers while others struggle to survive against mutated creatures and power-hungry groups trying to take control.

In the middle of all this craziness, Amira Hailen—a tough-as-nails ex-special forces assassin with a complicated past—gets a second shot at life. Thanks to a mysterious ally’s Mental Transference powers, she’s sent back in time, waking up with the ability to control ice. Determined to keep humanity afloat, she gathers her old crew and turns them into a reliable team amid all the chaos.

Meanwhile, Aiden Emberstorm—a fiery elite operative—gets fed up with the government’s weak response to the crisis. With his own fire powers blazing, he ditches the bureaucracy and teams up with his battalion to protect innocent lives. He becomes a symbol of resistance, taking on mutated beasts and rogue factions while trying to restore some order.

When Amira and Aiden cross paths, it’s not exactly love at first sight. Their icy and fiery personalities clash, but they can’t deny the need to join forces. They both want the same thing: a sanctuary where survivors can be safe. So, they decide to work together, hatching a plan to take down the alien ship before it can call in reinforcements for a full-scale invasion.

Amid epic battles, unexpected alliances, and a budding romance, Amira and Aiden must face both their inner demons and the alien threat. It’s a fight for survival in a world that’s gone wild, with everything at stake—including their own hearts.

Frozen Flame of Dawn

The convoy finally came to a stop at the village square's entrance. Even though the air was heavy with dust and exhaustion, but there was an unspoken sense of relief as the engines died down one by one. Bella got out of her car and spread her arms wide as she looked around.

She could see the fatigue on everyone's faces, even if the long journey had gone without a hitch.

"Alright, everyone," she called out. "Let's get inside the barrier, park your vehicles neatly and leave the supplies where they are for now. We'll secure everything after you've had a break."

Within the dimming sunlight, massive ice barrier that Amira had created shone like a beacon as it surrounded the village square and was big enough to easily shelter thousands.

Even with all the new people coming in, there was still enough space to move around, though some places were starting to feel a little crowded.
