Rising

My name is Kit Steele and I was ten years old when thousands of alien ships landed all over the world in the year 2020. We thought for sure that we’d be goners, about to be obliterated or terraformed out of existence. But when the ship doors opened, they were… empty. Maybe they were just communication vessels, we thought. But that night, when humanity fell asleep, we were sucked into an alternate dimension. The Dream Wars. A place where the alien ghouls fed off of your body unless you fought back. If you’re killed in the Dream War, your body dies on earth. That was ten years ago and I’ve been training for the Dream War every night since then. Each time I close my eyes and drift off to sleep I become a merciless killer. Taking out as many ghouls as I can. It’s earned me the rightful title of Commander and now I protect the rich in their sleep with my team of warriors. But the one thing I didn’t expect was that my new client Damien Striker might be able to put a stop to this war, if I can keep him alive long enough.
