Forest Spar

by Tower Curator — Eva threw herself to the ground. A near invisible blade of wind skimmed over the tips of her hair. That's fine, Eva lied to herself as the ends of her hair drifted to the ground around her, my hair was getting too long anyway. A second gust of wind curled between the ground and her body. Eva's eyes grew wide as she felt the air draw in on itself. She felt a moment of panic before being launched up into the air. The world spun. Sky turned to trees which turned to ground before snapping back to the…

Evacuation

by Tower Curator — Wayne kept his fireball steadily humming in front of the two of them. A warning that he could and would protect himself at any sign of hostility. She, in turn, had one arm linked around his like they were a couple. Her other arm kept Zoe pressed against her chest. Despite his growing tension, Serena was the picture of relaxation. She leaned her head against his arm, knowing yet uncaring of the flames just inches away. A show of power? Or stupidity. Either way, she hadn't attacked him yet. Wayne was…

Blood

by Tower Curator — "Sarah!" Wayne hammered his fist against the heavy oak door. "Sarah! Open the door!" He rattled the handle to no avail. It was locked. "Maybe no one is home," Serena said, arms clasped behind her head as she leaned against the wall. Zoe clung to the vampire's shirt, pressing her mask up against a curtained window near the two. Since rescuing Zoe from the thralls, the younger girl had stuck close to Serena. At first it had been mere holding hands. After about ten minutes of walking, Serena…

Companions

by Tower Curator — Walking through the streets of Lansing wasn't that bad. Because of the smog, Wayne had been forced to drive at extremely slow speeds. As long as he kept up a brisk pace, walking would likely end up being faster in the end anyway. There were a few drawbacks. Wayne considered himself far from the most athletic of people. Power walking the remaining mile or two to Sarah's house wasn't a huge issue, but he was starting to feel the strain in his legs. He had dropped his time dilation down several notches as…

Return

by Tower Curator — Zoe pinched the bridge of her nose. Wayne had to return soon with news. Between Devon muttering to himself and the constant whining of the demon infesting Shalise's body, Zoe was about ready to hog-tie the two of them and gag their mouths. Especially Shalise. Or Prax. Whoever it was. Keeping Shalise's body available was a must. The worst case scenario would be that entity deciding to return to that giant castle before Eva showed up. Zoe wasn't entirely certain that she could blame it if it…

Recovery

by Tower Curator — Zoe's chest heaved as she took a deep breath of the crisp air within Ylva's domain. She turned to Wayne, letting all the air out in one long sigh. She gave off a half-smile, full of nervousness and worry. "Are we really doing this?" Wayne gave a short grunt. "I've done a lot of crazy things in my life. Jumping head first into Hell will be a new one." "You don't have to come with me." Wayne frowned. He opened his mouth, ready to berate her for saying that. After a moment of silence, he shook his…

Stuck Together

by Tower Curator — Catherine glanced back and forth between the two arguing people. She never would have expected Baxter to take her side. The professor had not left her with the impression that she was well liked when she kicked Catherine out of her classroom the last time she got injured. Few humans would side with a demon in the first place, though the point may have been moot. The sides were between Catherine and Ylva. "We cannot allow her to leave. She will betray Us the moment she perceives a lack of…

Back into the Fire

by Tower Curator — Eva tossed the now slightly damp towel over her shoulder, not caring in the slightest where it actually landed. She exited the showers completely in the nude. Arachne followed her out at her heels. Devon still sat, snoring in his chair. For a moment, she considered waking him. After glancing at the large bruise on his forehead, Eva decided he looked tired enough to leave alone. Besides, he managed to sleep through all the noise of the showers. Never had she felt so alive. She stopped and…

Cured

by Tower Curator — The long hallway. Blood red walls with a black hardwood floor. A narrow carpet protected the hardwood from the sharp undersides of Eva's feet. There were no doors. No side passages. Nothing at all apart from a way forwards and a way backwards. It looked exactly as it had every other time. Eva took off at a run. And promptly got nowhere. It didn't matter which way she ran. Neither direction ever took her anywhere apart from where she was. Yet Eva ran. There had to be progress…

Rescued

by Tower Curator — Genoa started off with the easy ones. The slow, the sluggish, the immobile. None of them had the ability to move out of the way. Most of the golems had the same weakness. While the sewn on demon bits had strength and durability, their human parts were just as weak as any other human. Their creator had learned a few tricks since the attack on Brakket. A good number of the golems had armored plates stapled onto the human body. One, Genoa noted as she stabbed another through the throat, had a shiny…
