“The Solaxis Mist” by G Suzanne

An immense rectangular prism, silver and featureless, perched on a cliff overlooking a tumbling river. The prism, called the Center for the Defense of Planet 808, glowed faintly in the growing light of the deeply golden horizon; the river reflected the bright windows of the towering white buildings on the far bank. On the face of the prism that looked away from the river and towards the promise of a rising sun, an invisible door slid open and a young woman emerged.

For eight years, or nearly a third of all the time I've been alive, I, along with every other human in existence, have been running from Sun Death. Millions of years ahead of schedule, our life-giving star became the end of Earth, consuming the inner planets entirely and forcing us to flee before the wave of deadly radiation sweeping across our solar system. My home is dead, and soon I will be, too. Myself, my m...

“A Second Set of Bars” by G Suzanne

A cloudless sky resting on a featureless horizon. A sea of the stubbly remains of grain stalks. A two-lane road, deserted, stretching as far as he could see in either direction. So, so much space. It’s good to be free, Jamie said in his mind. He tried to say it out loud. “I’m scared to be free.” It was always interesting to find out how he really felt.
