The Protector and the Peacemaker: Chapter Twenty
Chapter Twenty **(Porter)** "Whoa," Porter said when he stepped up to the archive's door. The rings and runes had been reconfigured in a way that meant absolutely nothing to him, but apparently they had opened the door. That wasn't what he was...
The Protector and the Peacemaker: Chapter Eleven
Chapter Eleven **(Sarah)** The tension in the mines was thick enough to cut with a knife, and Sarah began to notice things she hadn't seen before as she was being led through the tunnels a second time. The Mythics that lived there wore grim...
Juryokine: Chapter Thirty
Chapter Thirty Toke clenched his fists so hard he was almost afraid he'd crush his battery, but that was the only way to make them stop trembling as he made his way up the stairs to the Capitol's door. The same carvings he'd seen a month ago were...
Amber Silverblood: Chapter Sixty Three
Chapter Sixty Three I could feel Kaylie's fiery hot rage washing off of her as she drove us to the mall. I road shotgun, and I kept my body pressed against the door just to put a little more distance between me and her. I didn't say a word, and she...
Juryokine: Chapter Thirty One
Chapter Thirty One There was a strange vibration in the air when Toke began to regain consciousness. The kind you can't really hear, but you feel deep in your bones. He groaned and forced his eyes open. He was in a tiny room, he realized, and his...
Juryokine: Chapter Twenty Four
Chapter Twenty Four "Take it easy, Toke," a familiar voice said as the young man began to drift back to consciousness. He was sure he knew that voice from somewhere, but it was warped by the aching throb in his head. With a groan, he opened his...
The Gray Ranger: Unforgiven, Chapter Fifty One
Chapter Fifty One "So... what happened back there?" Kulgan looked up from the fire he'd built, to Adlis who sat on the opposite side. The light flickered, making shadows dance around the tired foursome. Za was to Adlis' left, hunched over so that...
Amber Silverblood: Silverpack, Chapter Forty Two
Chapter Forty Two "Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me," I sang under my breath. Moonlight shone through the open blinds of my bedroom window, and I eagerly sucked it up, letting it recharge me after the long, boring day of school. I slipped...
The Salyer and the Sphinx: Chapter Fiive
Chapter Fiive **(POV: Sara)** Terror greater than anything Sarah had ever known froze her in place-- greater, even, than when she had been chased by the Slayers. Her blood seemed to turn to ice in her veins, and she let out a bloodcurdling...
Juryokine: Chapter Twenty Two
Chapter Twenty Two "I can't believe this," Toke whispered. He sat in the chair beside Wayli's bed, hunched over so that his chin almost rested on the mattress. Boam stood with his back against the wall behind him, not saying anything. Wayli's...
The Protector and the Peacemaker: Chapter Thirteen
Chapter Thirteen **(Tick)** It had only been two days, but Tick already felt as if he were healing. For the past forty eight hours, he'd had his chest, and the burn that marred it, pressed firmly against his father's back. The wampus cat's fur...
Amber Silverblood: Chapter Sixty Two
Chapter Sixty Two The loud, thumping music assaulted my ears the minute I set foot in the hallway. Clutching the knife tight in one hand, I closed the door with the other. If something went wrong, at least Kimberly would be safe inside her room,...
