    Summary

    There are rumors that the Jedi are not entirely… natural. They move too quickly, too silently, and their eyes always look to something nobody else can see.

    “Unnatural,” some people murmur. “This ‘Force.’ It’s not right.”

    Mortis was a conduit of the Force.

    Anakin Skywalker had been a temporary conduit for the Daughter, had Fallen in the Well of the Dark Side, had been born from the Force.

    Ahsoka Tano had been transformed by the Son, had been killed by the Dark, had been restored by the life of the Daughter.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi had been taken to the Altar formed of pure Force, had been trapped in the Well of the Dark, had spoken with the dead.

    They had been immersed in the Force more deeply than any other Jedi.

    More deeply than what the Jedi consider to be… natural.

    Here’s what it means.

    Summary

    Darth Vader awakens merged with his younger body in the beginning of the clone wars. He has the power of a warrior and knowledge derived from the best minds in the galaxy and now he has the opportunity to change everything. Save for once instead of destroy. But first he has to learn to live again in a world he’d burned down.

    Not easy to do with everyone suspicious of him after his collapse.

    …………………………………………………………………………….

    He didn’t do anything. Rex stood there and watched as one man destroyed an entire army.

    He’d never seen anything like it in his life. (And he was surrounded by Jedi.)

    Skywalker slaughtered them. Mercilessly. He moved like the lightning that was flashing all around them.

    The soldiers didn’t even look in the Clones direction, they were all facing the storm that moved through them like the cotton candy Ahsoka had sneaked them once.

    The sky was dark except for the lightning flashes that struck the earth, destroying groups of men at a time, fire was spreading across the ground, and Skywalker moved through it all with a deadly grace that looked well earned. His lightsaber slashing through any resistance.

    Summary

    Courtney used to think Death was a skeleton that wore black robes and carried a scythe. Today, she learned Death wore a denim jacket, had dirty blonde hair, stormy blue eyes, and carried a shotgun.

    And today, Death was coming.

    Or,

    Courtney Miller's life as a reporter is turned upside down when she crosses paths with a mysterious blonde haired, blue eyed gunman on a bloody mission of justice. Digging into the shooter's identity unearths far more truth and danger than she ever expected.

    That Punisher AU that absolutely nobody ever asked for. A Shourtney slowburn action-romance rife with tragedy, mystery, legal drama, and a nice serving of bullets.

    Summary

    The sequel to You Think You're Lost But You're Not Lost Alone.

    Three years ago, Cal Kestis made the foolish decision to accept a mission on Coruscant that nearly led to his death. Thanks to the efforts of five unlikely teammates turned friends, he's been able to build a life on a planet safe from the Empire and impossible to find, allowing the Galaxy and those that looked to him as a symbol of hope to believe he is dead at the hands of the Empire. It isn't the journey he wanted for himself but it is the path that life placed him on—at least until he discovers that the man responsible for his imprisonment by the Empire, Bode Akuna, has captured his friends with the intent to end their lives unless Cal turns himself over.

    Three years ago, Kanan Jarrus and Hera Syndulla agreed to form a team and risk everything to save Cal from certain death.

    Now it's time for Cal to return the favor.

    Summary

    Regret. Resistance. Reluctance. Refusal. Resilience.

    No longer a naive boy but a brazen Jedi Knight, Cal Kestis storms Coruscant under the impression that the Force will always protect him, no matter how foolish his objective. Abandoned by Saw Gerrera after his mission goes sideways, Cal finds himself imprisoned in the bowels of the Jedi Temple with echoes of the past haunting him and years of regrets making him question why he followed the will of the Force rather than answering to the pull of his heart.

    Lost and alone, Cal resigns himself to a certain death after a meaningless existence, forgetting that the Force is so much bigger than he is. After learning of the captured Jedi on Coruscant, a pair of revolutionaries finding their footing in the budding rebellion, two forgotten sisters, and a Jedi whose brush with darkness changed him forever come together to take on an impossible mission that will force them to face their demons in order to save one of their own.

    Will they be able to set aside the silent pains that plague them and find hope in the face of despair or will the weight of reality keep them from rising above—and saving Cal—before it’s too late?
