A Day with Irene

by Tower Curator — Irene stretched out in her bed, ready to enjoy yet another day off. The diablery class hadn't met for a whole week. Not since the incident. That wasn't to say it was canceled. Just suspended. Supposedly they would be having regular meetings again on the first of March. While actively attending the class, Irene hadn't been aware of just how stressful it actually was. Between the intensity of Catherine and Eva, slipping away or making up excuses to her sister and Jordan, and the ever-present feeling of…

The Frying Pan

by Tower Curator — "You knock on your own door?" Irene quirked an eyebrow in Juliana's direction. The two finished shopping in record time. The subpar selection offered by shops around Brakket certainly helped. Still, Juliana made out with a new uniform and plenty of everyday clothes. Her favorite purchase was a brand new winter coat. It was cut long with an outer layer of wool and fleece lining. Her old coat wasn't technically ruined due to being hung up near the door when the golems attacked. As long as Zoe lifted…

Underground Academy

by Tower Curator — "How exactly are these students being screened?" Without so much as glancing up from tapping away at her cellphone, Catherine shrugged. "That's up to your governor." "Anderson?" "That's the one." Eva leaned back in her chair, balancing it on two legs as she rested her feet on a neighboring seat. For a few moments, she just stared at the ceiling tiles. They weren't very interesting. It had never stood out much to Eva, but Brakket was dull. Aside from the Infinite Courtyard, there was very…

Help from Below

by Tower Curator — "A lot of help she is," Eva mumbled as she slipped her phone back into her pocket. Deep wrinkles of thought and worry lined Genoa's face. Since picking up Juliana's cellphone, she hadn't stopped pacing up and down the street. She did pause as Eva finished her call. "Nothing?" "Nel was using the armored hunter's blood to track them, assuming it is that hunter again. He died. Plus her vision was slipping as well. She only really was able to watch them thanks to her watching them non-stop since they did…

Complications

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…

Iced

by Tower Curator — The demon's gaping maw snapped shut mere inches in front of Irene's face. Inches only because something gripped her arm and pulled. Irene didn't stop inches from the demon. The force on her arm kept her going. She flew backward, rolling into a table that had been pushed to the edge of the room. Pain in her shoulder and upper arm forced her to cry out as she came to a stop. Even through her shirt, Irene could see an unpleasant lump. Her arm wasn't where it was supposed to be. Gripping her…

Gone Wrong

by Tower Curator — Eva kicked back in her chair, flipping a page in her blood magic book. It wasn't an extremely comfortable seat, being a simple wooden seat she had dragged over. There wasn't any padding on it and its back was far too low. Padding didn't matter much. Her legs were stiff carapace and her butt had been reinforced--for lack of a better word--around where her legs met her skin. It was far from the worst chair she had ever sat in. The most uncomfortable aspect was the hole that was still in her side. Eva…

Uncomfortable Attentions

by Tower Curator — "Welcome. To some of you, this will be a welcome back. To others, an initial greeting. "This year, we will be making history with our students and among other schools around the country. We will be blah blah blah." Eva filled in her own words in place of the new dean's speech. She already knew what was happening. For the most part, at least. Really, she didn't know why she had bothered attending. Beginning of the year speeches were never interesting, this one least of all because of her…

Book Two Epilogue

by Tower Curator — You saved my life. I'll spare yours. This one time. Do not test my goodwill. Eva frowned as Arachne read the three lines again. There was no signature, but it didn't take a lot of guesses to figure out the sender. Eva could only recall saving one life in her recent memory. Maybe. Zagan agreed to not kill her. As long as he was planning on following through with that, Eva didn't actually need to interfere. How Sister Cross got the note onto her pillow without either waking Eva or alerting…

Cool Down

by Tower Curator — The tension in Irene's muscles had to be reaching their peak. She felt like she had been exercising nonstop for the past two hours. Her body couldn't possibly tense up any further. Every impact against the shackles she had set up only caused her grip on her wand to tighten, proving that notion wrong. Every high-pitched whine had her arms shaking just a tiny bit more than they were before. Every cannon blast that followed the whine had her ears ringing and her vision blurring for a second or two…
