Chapter 1 - My Star

In the distant future, humans have expanded their reach across the galaxy, conquering planets and subjugating extraterrestrial beings. Among the many planets under human rule, there is one that stands out - a super planet, rumored to hold immense power and resources that could further solidify human dominance in the galaxy.

Captain Astra Valen , a fierce and determined leader with a full-blooded human lineage, is tasked with leading a platoon to conquer this super planet. By her side is Vice Captain Kael, an extraterrestrial being from the Xyran race with striking alien features that set him apart from the rest. Despite their differences in appearance and species, there is an undeniable bond between them, a love that transcends the boundaries of their respective races.

As they prepare for their mission, the tension between them and the disapproval from their fellow soldiers is palpable. Relationships between humans and aliens are frowned upon in the military, seen as a weakness that could compromise the mission. But Astra and Kael are undeterred, their love for each other giving them strength and resolve.

Before they depart for the super planet, Astra and Kael make a solemn promise to each other - if they survive the mission, they will get married and defy the societal norms that seek to keep them apart. But if one of them falls in battle, the other will take their own life, unable to bear the thought of living without their beloved.

As they land on the super planet and engage in battle, the platoon faces unexpected resistance from the native inhabitants. Betrayal from within their own ranks leaves Astra wounded and vulnerable, lying on the ground as Kael rushes to her side. In that moment of desperation, she looks up at him with tear-filled eyes and asks him to keep their promise.

Kael is torn between his love for Astra and his desire for freedom for his kind. He knows that if he chooses to honor their pact, he will be leaving his people behind to suffer under human rule. But the thought of losing Astra is unbearable, and he cannot bring himself to break their vow.

In a moment of clarity, Kael makes a decision that will change the course of their lives forever. He leads a rebellion against the oppressive human forces, rallying his fellow extraterrestrial beings to fight for their freedom. Despite the odds stacked against them, they fight with courage and determination, inspired by the love and sacrifice of Astra and Kael. 

But the rebellion ultimately fails, and Astra is taken prisoner by the human forces. As Kael is led to the place where her lifeless body is being kept, he feels a sense of despair wash over him. The sight of her broken form ignites a fire within him, a fire fueled by love and defiance.

With tears streaming down his face, Kael embraces Astra's body and steps into the flames that consume them both. In that final act of sacrifice, their love burns brightly, a beacon of hope in a world filled with darkness and oppression.

Their sacrifice does not go unnoticed. The news of their love and defiance spreads across the galaxy, inspiring others to rise up against the tyranny of the humans. Astra and Kael may have perished, but their legacy lives on, a testament to the power of love and the strength of the human spirit.

As the galaxy mourns the loss of two brave souls, a new era of resistance is born. And though Astra and Kael may no longer walk among the living, their love endures, a reminder that love knows no boundaries, not even those of time and space.
