Ket opened his eyes. "_Dang it._" He knew the whisper came from Emmy, even though he couldn't see her. "What?" He groggily asked. "Go back to sleep." She told him. He yawned, and moved his hand about. She was nearby, but he couldn't tell where...

Emeral yawned. She was kept awake only by the act of brushing her hair. It was midnight, or close to it. She never remembered staying up so late in her entire life. She was surprised Ket was taking so long to shower. But, he did have to wait a bit...
Lonely Oak Chapter 71
Lyza recognized the lady sitting at their camp tables. It took her a moment, but she remembered the woman from when they first arrived at Camp Connalake. She helped them pick out their campsite. Beside the mother koala was a boy about the girl...

"Tonight?" Rini sat in the middle of the couch. The TV played without sound, on some random channel. "...No." Beside her, Goren talked on her cellphone. Ritzer had called. "Dude, I don't care. I'm busy; I have plans." By the sounds of it,...
