Short Story : Chapter 1

“I guess Yuri was right, which is mildly convenient” Sabra said. “The place is almost empty, their numbers are extremely low.” Screaming from a young woman could be heard coming from another room, surprising them. Turning their attention in the direction the scream was coming from. Everyone tried to move towards the screaming, before being halted by Paisley. “One group can go check that out. We need to go and look for Vittorio, it shouldn’t be an issue to split up for a little.” “I’m certain

Ise said nothing though she did raise an eyebrow. Naoko coughed nervously and continued, “It’s just an idea but I’d like to at least try it out to see if it’ll even work and since you’re said to be really god with kidō I thought you could help me.” Ise’s face still looked unamused though when she spoke there was a hint of interest in her voice, “How did you come up with that idea?” The teen shrugged, “I read about a weapon Quincies have used called Seele Schneider. It’s like a sword but made of

"Are ye thinking of the climb or something else lass? Besides, electric lights were not invented for another eight-hundred years when this passage-way was built by the original Selkie clan." "Well, we’ve had the benefit of electricity for two-hundred years now, it's about time you guys get an upgrade for the bat cave or should I say the Selkie cave? Other than electric lights how about some of those battery operated headlamp thingy's?" "If we had human's visiting my parent's home often

“I didn't call anybody,” Dena looked at Fay. “His cell phone rang. He said it was you calling for help and that Fay was in trouble,” Fay looked at Kat whose face paled when she realized that had really happened. “Oh no,” Kat whispered. “Basement, huh? Alright. Watch yourselves...and watch out for us!” Dean handed Fay a gun and ran off with Fay hot on his heels. They quickly found the basement. “His spirit is here,” Fay whispered to Dean. “He is watching us as we speak,” Dean nodded, thinking

Following her as she departed, I noticed some of the other tables had filled up and that more than a few of the teenaged girls were either discretely sneaking glimpses or just flat out staring at us… although, some of them looked away when I looked in the direction and… dammit. Or, of course, it was me they were looking at; as if I was the new attraction at the zoo or something. “I can’t believe you’re still associating with that Troglodyte, Sissy. I didn't get a chance to tell you, but believe

overreaction So many tears, I call the sweat of sorrow My heart is hardened, just like the Pharaoh As I think about remorse If this was a test, I failed the course My thoughts just won’t let me forget Alana, my darling, the only thing I don’t regret. Chapter 8 The rest of the day was gray for Jarrod as he packed up to leave byways of a Greyhound bus. He could not get his mind off Alana. How foolish he was, he thought, to let a woman like her get away from him. No woman would compare, EVER! After showering

“Where is he?” I asked Kat. “He is probably still coming,” she replied. But, I've known her since kindergarten which is long enough for me to be able to know when she’s lying. She always looks away from you and rubs her foot against the ground. I could tell how hard she was trying to hide the fact she was lying. But, despite her efforts, it was obvious. “We’ll find him. I promise. Maybe he just ran away. He probably needed a little break away from all of the crowd. I’m sure we’ll find him later,

“The next moment they were in the shed, walking past the long line of stalls, when suddenly Nelly heard her father cry out: We've got him, sheriff! Block the door!” Noyes was stunned. He had not a clue what to do now that his cover was exposed. He tried to make a quick escape out of the shed window to dodge the sheriff storming into the shed. Noyes did not realize at the time of his frantic and hopeless efforts of escaping the grasp of the law, that the entire shed was surrounded by the entire

He sighed loudly, “Newbies, always trying to play the hero,” he snapped his fingers and I heard a loud crack from behind me, then a heavy thud. I was too scared to turn around, I knew she was dead, there was no way she couldn’t be. I couldn't hear her breathing, or feel her shaking anymore. “He’s gonna pay for that,” I thought to myself. “You know what Astrid?” I glanced up at him, I think my recruiters made a mistake when they chose you.” You are not right for this position.” That’s all he said

His words stunned her. Her bags had been packed? A sick, sinking feeling took hold of her stomach and tears of disappointment replaced the tears of indignation and outrage. So this was it; the end of her college career. Over before it began. How could she have been such a fool? She had allowed wishful thinking and fanciful dreams to cloud her judgement. Of course it had all been too good to be true. Things like that just did not happen for free. There was always a price. The price, in this instance
