      Zoe Baxter

      Zoe Baxter Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva crept closer just as the sun dipped below the horizon. The only lights on were the front living room and the basement. That didn't bode well. The basement light was never used unless daddy was entertaining a guest. None of the guests were ever good news. Eva hopped over the waist-high old-fashioned iron fence and walked to the back door. A peek through the back door window showed an empty dining room. Eva took a quick glance around before stepping into the house. Sounds of laughter and the…
    • Ylva | Out of the Fire Cover
      by Tower Curator Juliana ran out of the small building titled Womens Ward. Even without asking her, Zoe could see the blond hadn't found her roommate. Truly a troublesome student. If Eva just ran off somewhere with Mr. Carter without telling anyone, Zoe would be sticking a tracking tag on the girl. If she hadn't run off... well, she would probably still be getting a tracking tag, so long as she came back in one piece. "I couldn't go into her room," Juliana said, "but I made a lot of noise at the door. I don't…

      Wrong

      Wrong Cover
      by Tower Curator "Hold on a moment," Eva said. She didn't get texts often. Usually only when there was an emergency. Either Zoe or Nel using Zoe's phone would send her something. Even rarer were actual phone calls. Right now, her phone was ringing. They had been right in the middle of their conversation about demon hunters, tactics, possible offensive avenues, and defensive security measures. Now somebody was interrupting it. Rude. Probably. Unless it was an emergency. In that case, Eva might be able to forgive…

      Women’s Ward

      Women’s Ward Cover
      by Tower Curator Zoe put on a light smile as she greeted her old teacher. "It is good to see you again, Genoa. Carlos." Juliana's father gave a light nod of his head. "I wish I could say the same." Genoa slid down her circular sunglasses to peer over the top. Zoe tried to maintain her smile. It felt strained and fake. She did not like the look she was getting. Understandable though it was. "A situation has arisen involving your daughter." "So I hear. Where is she?" "Juliana, along with her two…

      White Noise

      White Noise Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva's head spun. Everything hurt. She couldn't think straight and she couldn't see straight. The only thing she could see was a blinding whiteness. Her memories were hazy. A vague sensation of seeing something dangerous followed by pain. The crackling white in the sky. That had to be it. She saw it and had activated her shield. Had she shouted out to warn the others? No? She couldn't think properly. Everything hurt. But she was alive. She had to be. If she was dead, she would be in that hallway…

      War Games

      War Games Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva was absolutely certain that Arachne wasn't actually attempting to kill her. She was only mostly certain that Genoa wasn't trying to kill her. Whatever the case, neither of them was messing around. Not that Eva could blame them. They all had been told in very plain words exactly what would happen to them should they fail to perform. Putting her back to a wall, Eva took a moment to catch her breath. Pinned between the mass of insects led by Arachne and the few but elite human mages headed by Genoa,…

      Void Domain

      Void Domain Cover
      by Tower Curator Devon stalked around the prison courtyard, staring at the ritual circle drawn out where there had once been a basketball court. Eva's treatment circle. Likely the very final one. He doubted that it was truly necessary. Taking a sample of her blood and examining it with a few spells, Devon had found nothing human about her. He couldn't be sure if it had been her actions during the ritual---which he hadn't seen with his own eyes---or if Void had interfered after pulling her down to Hell. Or perhaps it was…

      Vektul

      Vektul Cover
      by Tower Curator "When he said help, he was talking about Void, right?" Arachne shrugged. "What else would it be?" "Well, I don't know. He was obviously talking to me and not you. You're the one who has been given the mission, not me." "Is there something you need help with?" Arachne paused in her weaving, looking straight at Eva. "You know you only need to ask me." Flopping down on the women's ward couch, Eva shook her head. "I don't think I need help with anything. Not right now. But he might have been…

      Vacation

      Vacation Cover
      by Tower Curator Late May air in Florida felt sticky and viscous. Like wading through soup. It was almost nauseating to breathe in. Air up in Montana was dry. Even in the middle of winter with snow covering the ground, the air remained dry. Eva's first breath after teleporting in had felt almost like she was drowning. Even after spending a few days wandering the streets, her skin still felt far too moist. Like she was in constant need of a shower. She had this constant sheen coating her like sweat. Even on top of…

      Unruly Guests

      Unruly Guests Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva stopped pacing in front of the makeshift cell for the enigma-like creature. Actually, it wasn't all that makeshift. Maybe a little run-down and worn out, but it was a genuine prison cell. They had enough of them around the prison to spare, so Eva had insisted. Originally, she had wanted the creature to be kept within the solitary confinement building. It was isolated from the rest of the prison and had fairly heavy-duty doors and walls. Devon, in his infinite wisdom, had decided that he could handle…
