Fics like The Billboard Says, "The End Is Near"

“You misunderstand my intentions.” The woman got stiffly to her feet, leaning both thin hands on the table and bringing herself several inches closer to your face. The energy in the room became immediately darker, thicker, and more commanding. It took real effort not to lean back and keep the distance. “I am not here to convince you, or recruit you. I am simply here to retrieve you. The helicopter is waiting up at the main building.” You opened your mouth to retort, to argue, but one hand raised by the woman had you swallowing any hope of dissent. She leaned back to rap two knuckles against the door, an action that immediately summoned two broad men from the hallway. Though you couldn’t see their expressions, your face paled at the view of their readily-wielded assault rifles and bodygear. The European woman offered only a tight smile in return. “I have the full force of the US army on my side, and we are- well, as you would put it- kidnapping you to save the world." -or- You are a research assistant, "hired" towards the end of Project Hail Mary to help Dr. Ryland Grace develop the world's understanding on Astrophage. But why did it have to be... someone like him?
