Pathcode: Fear of the Blank Planet

Description

I have been obsessed with the EXODUS Pathcode teasers and have decided to write a fantasy, sci-fi, supernatural EXO fic focusing on all the members who have been spread apart in all corners of the world, choosing to live a normal life on Earth, away from their lost EXO Planet. Four years have passed until one day something happens. The world might end and a greater power seems to beckon them to reawaken their supernatural powers to save perhaps not one, but two planets! I am planning for this to be a story of epic proportions! I will try to update as often as I can!!!

 

Here is a list of our characters and where they reside, as well as their professions on Earth. I also added the time in the Pathcode teaser when things go awry. (Kris and Luhan are in the story too, they are enveloped in more of a mystery at the moment, a mystery that will gradually be revealed!)

 

Also, this is a KaiSoo and BaekYeon centric story, though I am focusing on all 12 EXO members :-D

 

KAI (Kim Jongin)- LONDON : 15:01 (TELEPORTATION)  Painter (he actually resides in Denver, CO with D.O but he is in London in the teaser and also in the novel at some point)

 

TAO (Huang Zi Tao)- BARCELONA: 10:09   (TIME CONTROL) Martial arts trainer


CHANYEOL (Park Chanyeol) - ARIZONA 17:11   (FIRE) Writer


XIUMIN (Kim Minseok) - BERLIN 05:06  (FROST)  College student/hacker

 

SEHUN (Oh Sehun) - EDINBURGH 15:24  (WIND) Male model

 

SUHO (Kim Junmyeon)- MARSEILLES 10:22  (WATER) Psychiatrist

.

CHEN (Kim Jongdae)-ALMATY 20:01  (LIGHTNING)  College professor

 

BAEKHYUN (Byun Baekhyun)- LYON 06:26  (LIGHT)   Tour guide

 

LAY (Zhang Yixing) - YUNNAN 22:11  (HEALING)  Medical Intern  


D.O  (Do Kyungsoo)- Colorado 9:01  (EARTH) Singer


KRIS (Wu Yifan) -  16:03 (FLIGHT)


LUHAN (Lu Han)- 15:00 (TELEKINESIS)

 

KIM TAEYEON (won't reveal too much about her here, you shall find out reading! But rejoice BaekYeon fans!!!)

 

UPDATE!!!! (spoilers in these so read after reading each new chapter and feel free to ask questions!!!)

 

Chapter 13 is out! (been a while since I did one of these updates here). My previous chapter was "Lucky One" inspired, I decided to connect the new MVs to the pathcodes and basically the rest of their supernatural universe (why do I do this? Idk I am OCD and must make sense of everything and the vague SM supernatural story bugs me so I gotta invent my own and tie all loose ends somehow). But yes there is fiiinaaaaally more KaiSoo and Baekyeon, a deeper look into their past, how KaiSoo met, more details about their home planet and a build-up towards my next chapter, Monster. I don't know if it bothers some of you that I go into a little bit of detail with my descriptions and historical/geographical/astronomical facts. I am a perfectionist, what can I say? Sorry if it's boring for some of you :-(

Also one of the fanarts I used for my title chapter is by "soodyo" the other ones I have not found a legible watermark for so I cannot give credit but if you are the artist and want me to take them down, please let me know. The other ones I have used before I asked permission for first but for these I was not able to find a source.

My eight chapter is done (sorry for the wait guys but I will have another one out tomorrow!). Some interesting facts about this one: I found out the place in the Pathcode teaser for Chanyeol was actually in Spain so I had our Chanyeolie do some world travelling, which also allowed me to connect his first debut teaser to this one and if you check it out and pause it when he reads the note you will actually find I used exerpts from that note (which makes about as much sense as the Tree of Life MAMA intro but hey, I thought it would be cool to use more elements of their whole background story). Also OMG I made Suho into such a badass! (it might have something to do with his recent abs pictures...maybe...just maybe....But Suho is pretty powerful in this story. Also there are wolves :-) And some of the gang is reunited, we are only missing Lu and Kris now and a more in-depth look at Sehun's life). Oh yes, the title of the chapter is in French and it means "After me comes the flood"

The seventh chapter finally gives us a peak at our EXO planet, a little bit of history and background to understand what has happened with our lovely characters. More BaekYeon love in this one <3 KaiSoo is going to be focused on more soon as well, don't worry!

My sixth chapter is up! The Oracle is finally introduced, some of you may have guessed who it was? Hehe. Everything is happening faster and our heroes are running out of time! We have yet to see what Suho, Chanyeol, Sehun are doing and what happened to Kris and Luhan!

My fifth chapter is finally done and it features Lay, our important Healer! I referenced an apocalyptic song this chapter kept making me think about. I recommend it, "Silver and Gold" by City and Colour (Dallas Green). Also, there is a mention of a new character :-) Ahhh, and so the plot thickens!!!

The fourth chapter finally has some KAISOO!!! I love those two and I wanted them to be super close and co-dependent. I put a lot of love in describing the two of them :-)

My third chapter focuses on Tao's badass Wushu training so I decided to document myself as much as possible, I read a lot about martial arts and watched videos so I can describe the movements and stances faithfully. I also made sure I described the parts that we see in the teasers accurately and made sure everything ties together! I tried to describe Tao as he is, fearless but also fearful when he is confronted by something he cannot see.

The second chapter is finished and the name is taken from Ray Bradbury's story bearing the same name, "The Long Rain", a part of the story collection called "The Illustrated Man".

The name of this whole story is actually taken from a Porcupine Tree album bearing the same name (except the PATHCODE part of course). It is an excellent album, I recommend it :-) But for some reason it matched perfectly with what I have in mind for this story.

The beautiful fanart you see that I used for my chapters and my cover belongs to YanMeyr on Deviantart. It is beautiful and stunning and the best Pathcode artwork I have ever seen!

 

Foreword

Four years have passed since ten extraterrestrial men arrived on Planet Earth, having been scattered across its continents. They all hail from a distant, mysterious planet, exiled following events they'd rather forget. There were once twelve, the secret of the lost two wrapped in mystery. Being human and living simple lives is peaceful, but peace cannot last forever. Strange phenomena is occuring around the world, shadows lurk with watchful eyes and the twelve men must re-unite and rekindle their superpowers to save their new home from an unknown force threatening the very fabric of its existence.

Chapter 14: I have sooooo many things to say after reading all of this n i think i will lose my sanity if i don't get to read until the end of this. This is amazing n quite literally one of the best romance/scifi/fantasy I've ever read n this is so beautiful i can't help it :( i already loved it the moment i saw the exo-ot12 pathcode!au from the foreword n tags but i literally feel like i want to jump at u n give u hugs so tight when u made baekyeon alive in here since it's so hard to find good baekyeon fics (like exoamaya's 'what if we ran away ') n i almost explode how u wrote systematically in connecting pathcode teasers with lucky one and monster n hopefully lotto n o think o shud stop rambling but hogod, u cannot stop writing cuz this is tooooo wonderful, i give u full support , hoping that people should reax this

Chapter 14: Well this story kept me up until late yesterday (or well... Today I guess) so *cracks novels* it is only fair that I repay you with a novel of my own.

Lemme start by saying that the idea, while many would not call it original, is simply beautiful to me. Finally someone could make sense of those teasers! I have always wanted to write a superpowers AU but could never make sense of anything in the teasers, so wow. And! You connected it with Overdose to boot. I'm not kidding, that's not a little feat, I simply loved, loved, LOVED the part where Minseok mentioned the labyrinth and how not all of them came out alive.

The beginning was so promising! Loved the idea of them adapting, how they took four years, how you made the effort to explain the absence of Luhan and Kris. Not to mention the descriptions were beautiful! I'm not used to finding an author here who takes the time to actually create magic with their words, but I simply adore your descriptions. They made me get lost in the words for a while and it was wonderful. You could easily create an atmosphere unique to each character and setting with your words - tranquil for Kai and Soo, old and magical for Chen, abandoned and cold but with a side of rebellious youth who thinks they know how to be content for Xiumin, etc. I try to reenact stories I like in my mind, but rendering yours was almost impossible because it made use of tools unique to written text, not acting. Lovely.

Chapter 9: That was just so.... Wonderful. I can't even think of the right words for it. The fluff between Kai and D.O., the little BaekYeon moments, and the cliffhanger made me explode! Please update soon ♡♡
