CONTEST ENTRY

Regen is a Bremen. By nature he loves only his pet skeen, sensual women, money, and adventure in that order. Bremens are known for their sexual prowess, their tough exterior, covering a sensitive interior, and their tendency to leap before they look. I hope you enjoy following this arrogant, self-confident, egotistical and narcissistic bastard through a series of adventures in disparate sectors of the galaxy.

What if 15 soldiers with todays technology and equipment traveled back in time to 1453 Constantinoplis in just prior to the siege. We know they can but will they agree to significantly influence the events and outcome?

While escorting a supply convoy to an off base communications site north of Bagram Airbase Afghanistan, Master Sergeant George Mavrakis and his team are ambushed by the Taliban. Running for their lives with the few survivors of the ambush they manage to flee to an underground mine, but are trapped inside when a Taliban suicide bomber blows himself up in the entrance, sealing them inside. Traveling deeper into the mine they discover an underground base left there by the Soviets. While exploring the base they find a control room filled with computers and equipment which activated after generator power was restored and a countdown is automatically started.

The arrival of George and his troops from the future have drastically altered the timeline. The Ottoman Sultan Mehmet II will soon put the city of Constantinople under siege with over 80,000 troops and 60 huge guns that can tear down the city’s walls. In the American’s past time line, the Ottomans do capture the city and the emperor is killed in battle. It will be race against time to assist the Byzantines in building up their technical and military capabilities with the skills and knowledge, they brought back from the future, to stop the Ottomans. If they are unsuccessful the future is very bleak for George and his team, whom are lost in time.

Steve Johnson, a forty year old Special Operations Sergeant Major, is badly wounded while on Operations. He leans back against the stone wall, knowing that this time out will probably be his last. Just as he begins to feel himself slipping away, he is astonished to see a brilliant light opening and hands reaching out from it, dragging him into the light itself. Only snippets of memory remain: pain, of course, and the sound of people talking. He vaguely hears, "he's going to make it" before he falls into a deep sleep, full of odd learning sessions and confusing dreams. Two years later, Steve is brought out of his sleep, completely healed and his body regenerated into that of his twenty year old self. Most shocking, however, is that he finds himself in an alternate universe, on a planet called Midgard.
Johnson discovers that Midgard needs him to return to Earth to help a young woman wh

Fresh out of high school and newly married Tara McAdams just found out that she and her U.S. soldier husband, Marshall McAdams, are about to have a baby. Marshall is away on a training exercise, but she knows that he’ll be just as thrilled. This is the best thing that could ever happen to the pair, besides their wedding, of course. At least, it was supposed to be.

Marshall comes home to find the love of his life cold and lifeless in their bed. The doctors used words like “ectopic pregnancy” and “internal bleeding”. Marshall descends into a depression that is destroying his life. “Move on,” everyone lovingly counsels. But how can he when he swears he’s getting signs from Tara on the other side?

Tara isn’t gone—well, not completely—and both Tara and Marshall want another shot at their marriage—to have a normal life. Try as they might things are different, and the increasing
