This Time, We Have a Plan Shujai and Intrepid landed at the hillside where Hyperion’s Light was alighted after having been brought online.

Lock-Out Shujai’s arms were outstretched as emerald beams of bio-energy exploded from his palms, deflecting off the field of energy surrounding the ship. Once he exhausted himself, he stopped and took a breath. Hyperion’s Light had no scratch. “I can’t get through the forcefield,” Shujai explained, “This ship was well crafted.” “I should know,” Ryan boasted, “I’ve done maintenance on it over the years.” “Now … Continue reading AP Productions: The Commision #4

Ghost in the Machine Rex Robinson placed his hands on his hips, his famous smile never fading, “What are you waiting for, friends? There’s some strange things afoot.

Additionally, in order to stop said alien invasion, I agreed to offer him up to them. While … Continue reading AP Productions: Formerly Known as Brain Boy #11

Aftermath Michael sat across from Rex Robinson at a bar while the entire city burned just outside the window. Rex took a look at the flames rising to the heavens and turned to Michael with a smile, “Heating up out there, huh?,” then he took a sip from the tall glass of milk in front of him. “I should’ve been here,” Michael said plainly as … Continue reading AP Productions: Cavalier #22

Repercussions Wally and Kim wearily opened the door to their apartment. The Resurgence had been over for days but the local government advised civilians to stay in the bunkers for one week in case of further dangers and many complied. For them, it was a bit too much and they simply wanted to go home and sleep in their own beds. “You’re back!,” Astra shouted … Continue reading AP Productions: Astra Machina #11

Finale Dante Greer woke up when he found it difficult to breathe, the smell of smoke hanging heavily in the air. “Yo, Mom! Dad!,” he called out as he got out of bed, “We got a fire!” When he rounded the corner, he pounded loudly on his sister’s room, “Hey Sis, ya gotta get up.
