      Clairaudience

      Clairaudience Cover
      by Tower Curator "It was trying to climb up onto the counter. I just added spikes to the bottom of my shoes and stomped on it. Professor Baxter and Sister Cross came into the room a moment later." Eva leaned back, listening to Juliana's story. She'd already heard it once, though that one was a lot different. A shame really. All the good parts were left out of this version. Of course, the audience might not be able to take the unsanitized version. Irene sat across from Eva. Her pork riblets had been shoved to the…

      Juliana in the Dorm

      Juliana in the Dorm Cover
      by Tower Curator An awkward air hung about the usual group. No one talked, no one laughed. Everyone sat around picking at their food. Everyone except for Max. He had his usual double helping of refried beans and a side of string beans. Eva wasn't sure what was up with everyone. Juliana, she could understand.

      Elysium Sister Cover
      by Tower Curator A second crack tore through the alley, bringing with it a blinding light. Eva heard her master cry out in pain. The demon who tackled her quickly tore herself free and moved between the attacks and Eva. She almost charged forward, but something caused her to hesitate. Eva, on the other hand, didn't hesitate for a second. She whipped out two vials of her blood. The first was poured in a small circle, setting the radius and center point. The second vial was used to form a golf-ball sized globule…

      Devon Foster and Arachne

      Devon Foster and Arachne Cover
      by Tower Curator "Eva?" Devon Foster blinked in the dim light. "You almost lost your head, girl." "Yeah. Nice to see you too, master," Eva said as she gently pushed the blade away from her throat. "Expecting trouble?" "Not exactly," he said, replacing the dagger. "We were just about to leave. You surprised me is all." "We?" Eva peeked further into the building. Spinning in a swivel chair was a woman with six too many eyes and glossy black chitin in place of skin. "Ah. Hello Arachne." The spinning woman slammed…
