Her Dark DesireIt stirred in the far corner of her room and in the depths of her mind, dredging up that same rippling fear that all primates hold for the cold blooded and reptilian. The girl was not meant to speak with it, nor was it meant to speak with her, but she was young and naïve and the shadow was old and hungry. The candle light died from each taper of wax and was reborn in is grinning eyes. The light dimmed but now spitting with burning hunger and pointless hatred. What is the color of this night my child? Why do you call something so old and wild? It was the barest hiss of silver winds beneath a shining moon, enthralling and irresistible, i
Audition: Wonderlust OCTArmand checked over his shoulder. He knew he shouldn't and regretted doing so the moment his head began to turn, but he felt he had to. Looking back more importantly looking nervous usually drew the eye of the predators in the streets, hungry for any skittish prey that they could easily snap up. He wished again for what had to be the hundredth time since he'd stepped into the neighborhood that Nicole had gotten an apartment in the mundane part of the world. Fewer thing s would try to eat him over there, and there were even fewer chances that something would mess up his clothes. If anything decided to put a puddle of whatever ic
Dead WoodJudith looked out into the grove with a mournful sigh. The beauty was gone now, she could see it plainly. The lands no longer belonged to her and her kind. Taint had set in hard and there was nothing left for them now. She tried, straining her ears to hear the so familiar sounds of this dying place. There was no rustle of leaves, no crack in the underbrush, no twitter of birds, no call of foxes, nothing but dead grey silence She felt the sting of tears behind her eyes but held them back. No, all could not be lost! All could not be lost!She walked further along the path that was once hers. The packed dirt or ages that he served as the

An Unwanted JourneyWith eyes set to the far flung stars I took that first step towards the end; my heart heavy and limbs already weary. My only companion an insistently chattering mind, throwing words and concepts I never wished to think of. What was it, he, she; to claim to turn the world and create it anew. What right to set a planet spinning on an eventual course to brightly burning fires in distant clouds of dead star ash. I did not care to know, yet I could hardly keep myself from asking. There must be answers and I must have them.
Riding off to Bedlam It was vivid in blue and white and the black of pure pitch. Alive in its own way, even without the veins that should be lacing bright red across it, almost thrumming where it sat. One could immediately tell that the thing had power. Such power... "I'm sorry old boy, but I'm won't pay you a cent over £5,000." Rodger set down the pendant, laying the evil eye face up towards the ceiling. He turned the hazy purple glow that filled his sockets to the dealer sitting across from him. He looked none too pleased.Thin and far too pallid for a man just arriving from the sunny stretches

Confession of a PyromaniacI don't quite know what I think I'm accomplishing by doing this. What I get out of, indulging myself. Going over to the old side of town with the abandoned houses and vacant lots, alley cats that like to watch the way I like to watch. I guess, it has something to do with the heat, maybe. The crackle and pop of it. The wavering, licking tongues that rise out of a trash can, or a pile of paper or an old dump of trashed logs. I can't put my finger on it, but it's just something I have to do.I've tried not to, before. I've tried to stay away from anything like that. Just focus on school work or something, have a day at the mall or skulking aro

First Contact: The IslandThe sand beneath the boat finally gave way and with a good hardy tug Lumir hoisted the damned thing onto the beach, nearly losing her footing as the bow lurched up and out of the water. Rowing herself to the shore, after being so rudely cast off from her original transport, had tacked on another half hour on to her arrival but now that she had made landfall she could get to finding the flower and get back on the road towards a very healthy pay check. Tilting her head off to the side she quickly cycled through her tactical tool interface, mentally turning through the various different digital faces and devices. Compass, Geiger counter, temp
Enter the Mercenary The folder landed on the desk with a wholly unimportant thump, sliding into a slightly crooked landing place. The light of the overhead florescent bulbs reflected against the plastic tagging label on the file tab. The Flower Job, it read. A daintily fingered hand reached out for it and plucked it from the metal desk top, flipping it open at the same time. Lumir's face plate reflected the lightened words on the tab and she read over the file. "It's a rather simple job actually." came a voice from beyond the back of the manila folder. Lowering it the smirking face of her employer, Mr. Bailey, came into her range of vision. He was not really
