Burdens - Chapter 71: Extinguish
Chapter 71: Extinguish Hunter was confused by the question. At first it was from being unable to identify just who the fox was asking about, and then when he figured it out, he was confused about why he was asking. Then it began to sink in, and his...
Burdens - Chapter 78: Introspection
Chapter 78: Introspection Over the weeks Roger had witnessed a lot of changes, in himself, and in the others around him; the wolf, their friends, their teachers, even those that they did not know. Every so often the fox could swear someone was looking...
Burdens - Chapter 87: Priorities
Chapter 87: Priorities The week progressed much too quickly for the fox. At first he had thought that going through school was much too slow and he could not wait to see the wolf after it, but as time was passing by, suddenly he felt that there was...
Burdens - Chapter 21: Lunch
Chapter 21: Lunch It was still light out. Roger checked the time. It was about noon, slightly after it. He had planned on grabbing something to eat after the movie, and it still seemed viable. Besides, he thought, it might help calm the wolf down a...
Burdens - Chapter 49: Positive
Chapter 49: Positive Hunter was still not present, so Roger figured that he was still at practice. In reality, his meeting with the teacher did not actually take very long, so it made sense to him. He wandered off toward the small stadium that they...
Burdens - Chapter 98: Possession
Chapter 98: Possession There was but one more round of practice for the week, and then the fox could have the wolf all to himself. It was that idea that at least he entertained himself with in his head. Roger sat on the bleachers as he had done...
Burdens - Chapter 97: Consideration
Chapter 97: Consideration After the initial few days, the storm quelled. It was not a degradation of Roger's feelings for the wolf, nor was it the opposite. Rather, all of the suppressed emotions had been let out for the most part, though of course...
Burdens - Chapter 66: Pieces
Chapter 66: Pieces Roger blinked and it was a day away. They had headed back to study, and the lack of anything out of the ordinary seemed to cause his mind to meld the time together. It began to do so with the school days, as well. What was once the...
Burdens - Chapter 101: Prepare
Chapter 101: Prepare The morning found a bed with only but one in it. The figure stirred but did not wake fully. Roger had snuck out of the bed an hour earlier. He had wandered about the house and found that it was empty. His parents were starting to...
Burdens - Chapter 30: Illusion
Chapter 30: Illusion The fox woke up again. Light had not necessarily been streaming into the room, but there was definitely a bright glow from the blinds that made him keep his eyes closed. He tried to remember what had happened the day prior, but it...
Burdens - Chapter 20: Horror
Chapter 20: Horror The silent chattering ceased. The screen turned black except for the obvious light that reflected off of it. The lights were not quite all the way out, but enough that the screen took all of the attention. A bright light flashed...
Burdens - Chapter 29: Tangible
Chapter 29: Tangible Night had fallen upon them. Evening came early, as it usually did at the time of year, and the temperature was dropping rapidly. It was still no different than any other night, though. Roger and Hunter had spoken of many things,...
