Unplanned Adventures Part 3 - Unlikely Convergence
Unlikely Convergence By Paul Calhoun To describe much of anything about the story's content would be removing what little suspense I can manage to create. Instead, I'll admit to being somewhat influenced by Daria in the previous story and influenced...
The Man that Saved us all
We were trapped in this virtual world that was created to challenge us and our humanity. There was only one man that stood out. I was just a soldier that tried to help, but we all have our own stories. Mine was that I served along side a brave and...
Darkness and Starlight 26 - The MasterGamer
After a rather delightful anniversary, James felt somewhat happier as he trained his "magic" within the halls of Bowser's castle. He felt better about himself whenever he found himself training, wielding his elemental skills as a means to further exert...
Darkness and Starlight 22 - Heart of Anger
On the third month since James had begun his trips to Rogueport, the raptor wandered back home in a thick overcoat in the late evening, right around when the sky had turned dark. Opening the door with his spare key, he sighed and flumped his back...
Darkness and Starlight 17 - Dreams of the Deep One
What felt like only minutes of darkness to him soon passed, as he heard the world soon come back to him. The sounds of a soft tidal sea came from nearby, along with the cries of goonies from above. His eyes blinked open, murmuring automatically: ...
Darkness and Starlight 9 - Round 1
Koopin had rarely ever gone into the Club 64 itself, having always preferred his more local club the 1.2.8 which was much closer to home. But he could appreciate its calmer air and quieter ambience. The occasional beat of a double bass filtered...

Darkness and Starlight 5 - The First Degree
"AQUA!" The damp castle hall ran clear with James' proclamation, his hands tingling before a mighty spout of water that weaved and undulated like a snake. Kammy watched from the side, intrigued to see where James was going with this. The moisture of...
Mushrooms, Turtles and Pipes, Oh My! 18 - The Brawling Raptor
To the raptor who only turned his head, the four koopas who entered were at first like any other group of koopas. He almost suspected they would be the same four punks who tried to mug him on his first day of arrival, but then he noticed two things...
Mushrooms, Turtles and Pipes, Oh My! 16 - Haunting Music
The interior was not as grand as they expected for the supposed lair of a ghost gone mad. A small table with only two chairs and a single dreary white tablecloth, and a fireplace between rectangular windows that curved at the top. What was interesting...
He Walks As My Shadow 6 - To The Old World
The aftermath of the battle, as epic as it was for the raptor, had taken quite a bit out of him, doing all he could to keep standing while Felicia happily fuzzled and nuzzled the white wolf. "Hehehe, you were helping Joe home again right?" The wolf...
He Walks As My Shadow 2 - Normal Yet Abnormal
At this point, James was getting tired of reawakening within strange new places, finding it to be rather taxing upon his mind. Especially when it happened three times in one night. As his eyes flickered open, he noted that he was on a bed. A mattress,...
