Sinopse

In the year 2111, a deadly disease wipes out half the global population, and has sent the other half on a quick path to extinction. A look into the genetic make up of the virus leaves scientists with a hint: it mimics several diseases that are now eradicated completely. Groups of 2 were sent to different time periods to retrieve samples from people exhibiting the correct symptoms. Once these samples are taken, the team may return home. Ready to return to her family, Anne knows from experience that patients come in many forms, including that of the Duke. This backfires on her, however, when he turns on her, and uses her in his plot to save his sister from what he believes to be a sure demise at the hands of the tyrant king, Henry VIII. Now she finds herself at the alter offered up as a bride to the vile, and aging man; asking herself if she will ever make it home, or will she meet her fate at the hands of the king before she can do so?

A New Earth 2.0

Earth 2.0 was found in 1995, almost over 160 exo-planets has been found since then. This new planet, which is only about five times bigger than Earth, is the smallest exo-planet ever found orbiting a star. By the year 2030, life and civilization has advanced enough to travel at light speed in space, and explore other more outer planets besides just sending probes and satellites to take pictures. For the first time a ship with a manned crew has been assigned to explore planet OGLE-2005-BLG-390Lb, or Earth 2.0 as named by NASA's youngest scientist and co-leader of the manned mission to this new Earth, Marie Antonia. Probes and bots have all been sent to explore this Earth, and have brought back positive signs of humans being able to possibly live on this new Earth. Earth 2. 0 is around 25 000 light-years away from Earth, close to the center of our own galaxy, the Milky Way. It has an orbital period of 10 years and is about three times as far from its parent star as Earth is from our Sun. First believed that this new planet would be cold, probes proved NASA scientist wrong. Images brought back shows signs of active water, huge masses of water and land all over the planet, as well as signs of planets and vegetation. However, no sign of animals or anything living have been spotted yet. It's believed that this planet has not yet evolved enough to manifest life on it's own. Excitement brought the NASA scientist to a halt when they arrived on the planet to find out they were wrong, dead wrong. Now only does the planet hold living life, but the life the planet holds is bigger and stronger than any human on Earth. The spaceship UNA-1 sparked a leak right as they entered near Earth 2.0, and needed an emergency landing. The crew, holding 400 frozen humans in its cargo hold, are all aware now that life upon Earth 2.0 would be way different and that the could be risking the lives of 400 frozen humans, landed. The crew consists of ten people, four crew letting leaders, four control Engineers, and two citizens: an army soldier and his daughter who were accidentally unfrozen by the crew's co. captain John. S. Reginald. Sargent Henry Smith has been an soldier in the U.S. Army for ten years, and now accompanies the UNA-1 crew as part of an United States program to send humans to this new Earth. The first 400 people are supposed to set up a colony and start preparing for more people to join them on Earth 2.0. Current Earth is experiencing major catastrophes: Earthquakes, Volcanic Eruptions, huge tsunamis, and over 9.7% of the world is now under water. 3% of humans left on Earth await in strong holds either in the Ocean, or above the ocean were little land is left for news that they can now travel to Earth 2.0 and make it their new home. Sargent Henry Smith agreed to go through this program for one reason only: his daughter Scarlet. Scarlet is a sixteen year old girl who's experienced her whole life on a chaotic Earth. Henry hopes to provide a new place to live for his only daughter, and the rest of humanity that still lives. Watch as the Crew embarks on a new journey, to Earth 2.0 and they difficulties they face with the life that has already claimed the Earth. Will it be a battle for the residence already their? Will the humans chase them away, or worse, will they become slaves to this alien race upon the new planet?

Revere The General's Wife

Forced into a dead end, the Emperor of the North takes a risk. He calls upon the one person whom he had deemed more dangerous than any enemy years ago to partake in this losing war. Awakened after a period of seclusion, the God of War unwillingly finds herself back onto the battlefield, dealing with all the mess they have successfully led the Kingdom into in her absence. All she wants is some peace and quiet and most preferably a good jar of wine. What the God of War gets instead, is the displeasing attention of a certain rumored cold-blooded General. However, to mess with her, he obviously hasn't heard about the temper of the God of War. She would just have to show him, that he isn't the only crazy one here. Already at each other's throat seconds after meeting, the two people are forced to work together in a series of seemingly unrelated events... They call him the Mad Dog of the North, the one person you should never cross. He was long used to the terrified glances or the deeply bowed heads. Then, he met her. With sarcasm dripping from her every word, and a brain so smart that for the first time, he finds himself losing the upper hand, he should have known how incompatible they were. Yet, even the invincible General has times when he falls... And fall, he does, even deeper as he slowly uncovers her past and comes to understand the woman behind her mask. As a different kind of sparks begins to fly between the 2 people, a conspiracy inside the palace also starts to rise. This time, the God of War will have to be sacrificed. However, before that, the General has something to say. 'To dare touch what's mine, I trust you've all prepared your will.'
