Being held on suspicion for a murder he didn't- well, he did kill the guy, but really... That's neither here nor there. Dean deserved prison. Served him right for being caught. The things he had done paled in comparison to how he had left the man that had caused his incarceration. He may have been a little off... A little psychotic... But, you see... That wasn't his fault. You could blame it on his parents. Or the system. You could even blame it on God and his Great Cosmic Plan. One thing is for certain, it had nothing to do with Dean's current partner. Nothing.

To make matters worse, his new Commander in Chief orders him to work with her son, someone he knew in a much simpler time. But the mission is critical: protecting the people of Akkad and Corona alike from an imminent sunstorm that threatens to finish what the war started.
:Jared was raised to resent the Akkadians, having experienced their unfair rule for all of his life. It's been a long, hard struggle, but at last the Coronans are victorious. But as Jared learns more about what actually happened during the war, seeing with his own eyes what was done, he starts to question their victory. As he and Commander Ackles prepare for the deadly solar flares, Jared learns that the conflict he was proud to win was more complicated than he thought-and that for some people, the war isn't over yet.

:Summary: Earth has been colonized by a non-violent and pacifist race of aliens who have the ability to morph their bodies to look like humans and be able to live on this planet. But they believe real humans to be too violent and dangerous to keep around. It has been almost two years since Jared Padalecki ran to hide with a group of survivors since the invasion started, living in abandoned buildings and stealing supplies to survive.
But one night Jared and some friends are forced to go down to the nearest city when essential provisions are running low; yet it only ends in a disaster when they are almost caught and Jared has to pull a risky move to escape. It is right there, that Jared-sick, hurt and terrified-finds himself face to face with Jensen, an alien who works as a healer and has always felt a deep interest for the humans he was forbidden to ever meet.
:When Jensen's newly human body starts to develop all the "bad" emotions they were warned about since the moment he meets Jared-such as desire, possessiveness and all-consuming love-he has a hard decision to make: help Jared survive on a planet that not longer belongs to humans or report him to the Security Division so Jared is taken away before he can change everything Jensen is supposed to be.

:Summary: There are some things Jared knows: not to eat the meatloaf on Fridays in the university cafeteria, the combination to the engineering lab, that his heart didn't break when Jensen packed up his car and pointed it toward Hollywood one bright, sunny day near the end of August. It just cracked a little. Jensen knows camera angles, all the tricks to make fiction look like fact on film, and that his heart did break that day in August, although it takes him years to realize it.
:While Jared has been spending his days in classes and buried under books, Jensen has worked equally hard to get his name in the credits. An early morning phone call makes Jared drop everything and hop on a plane bound for Los Angeles. Although it's been a long time since they've seen each other, Jared can still see traces of kid he used to know. He also learns that he's not over something that he never really had in the first place.
