      Complications

      Complications Cover
      by Tower Curator Irene sat in her seat, shifting back and forth. Her first day back in diablery class had her feeling intensely nervous. She had been the one to cause the brief intermission in their lessons. Surprisingly enough, the rest of the class wasn't staring at her in one way or another. She had expected a glare or two at least. She did almost cause them injury--from their perspective. Or worse. Perhaps those that were the type to glare had already been kicked out of class. Those that were left tended to…

      Comforted

      Comforted Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva saw them arrive on her floor just as another of Lucy's tendrils snapped off. Zoe had her dagger out in her hand already while Juliana was in nearly full combat armor. Her face was clear, but she otherwise had a metal helmet covering her head. It looked as if she would be able to fill in the hole at the first sign of trouble. They weren't running with half as much speed as Eva thought they should be. Of course, one doesn't simply rush Ylva. The rest of them had no excuse. "I need you to destroy…

      Combat Class

      Combat Class Cover
      by Tower Curator "Come on, it'll be fun." Eva shared a glance with Juliana. Both girls sighed. Shalise quirked her head to one side as she shoved a spoonful of lasagna and bean pie into her mouth. Eva couldn't actually see the meal, but she could smell it. She was very glad she didn't often get hungry for lunch. "I'm going," Jordan said. "Me too," Shelby piped up quickly. Max shook his head. After finishing his food--someone had mentioned his bad habit over the last few months, Eva wasn't sure who--he…

      Clean Up

      Clean Up Cover
      by Tower Curator Irene stood outside, enjoying the bright sun beating down on her skin. Brakket Academy just didn't get enough sun. Doubly so given that the last two months had purple streaks in the sky. They were disturbing and unnatural. Most of her time had been spent inside as much as possible. As if that would save her from anything. Shaking her head, Irene put thoughts of Brakket Academy out of her mind. She was back home in New York and a safe distance away from everything troubling. Probably. Demons…

      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…

      Christmas

      Christmas Cover
      by Tower Curator "Your grip has tightened since Halloween." "I heard you were staying in town for Christmas," Eva shrugged. "I went out to buy a stress ball straight away." Genoa Rivas barked out a laugh. "Good. Good." She released Eva's hand and clasped her own on the shoulder of her partner. With a light shove, the spindly man stumbled forwards. He managed to avoid crashing into Eva by inches. "This is my husband, Carlos." A spindly arm stretched out to Eva. "H-hello," he said in a high-pitched…

      Cathedral Exit

      Cathedral Exit Cover
      by Tower Curator Zoe dove to the side, ducking into the white room while narrowly avoiding the returned lightning from the stairwell. While her own lightning might not have been the most powerful thing she could have thrown, she had serious misgivings about killing people who were just doing their jobs. Especially when she was the one breaking and entering with the intent to steal priceless artifacts. The Elysium Order was under no such hesitations. White lightning that only narrowly missed colliding with Zoe hit the…

      Catch It

      Catch It Cover
      by Tower Curator "Dean Anderson here." Eva sat on the edge of a table, staring out the window. So far, nothing had fallen from the sky that she had been able to see. Neither had anything approached the building. In fact, the pulsing of the violet streaks had died down to their usual levels of activity. Or inactivity, as the case was. Around her, most of the students had lost their nervousness. They were going about class as normal. Even Juliana had gone back to her seat after watching and not finding anything too…
    • Captured. Again. Cover
      by Tower Curator "And-- Ohh!" Hank cried with a wince. "There goes the scout from Mount Hope. Brakket Academy's scout showed absolutely no restraint." He glanced to the side. "A little rivalry after that last event?" "Perhaps," Zoe said, watching as the boy struggled against the fleshy bindings that pinned him to a tree. Neuro stood nearby, apparently basking in his victory. Though that wasn't quite right. It was just that the cameras didn't show exactly what was going on. To be fair, Zoe doubted that being there in…

      Bullies

      Bullies Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva spun on her heel and caught the rock out of the air. It was small and not pointed. That was a relief at least. Her fellow students weren't trying to kill her. It crumbled under the might of her claws. Too easy, far too easy. Probably had been designed to shatter on impact to create dust and a large mark on her back. Unbelievable. "A-are you alright?" "Fine," Eva ground out while giving a long, hard glare at the group of three students that stood where the rock had come from. She knew which…
