Ambush

by Tower Curator — The good news was that there were few cars on the freeway heading towards the city, leaving the freeway mostly clear of enemies. The bad news was that the outgoing lanes were bumper to bumper. The military had cleared away most of the ones near the wall--with a bulldozer, by the looks of things--but the rest were just blocking the road. They looked abandoned, but Wayne wasn't about to let his guard down. He kept one hand on his tome as he drove along. A constant trickle of magic left him ready for…

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…

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…

Breaking and Entering

by Tower Curator — "This is it?" Zoe nodded along with Devon's words. She had to double-check the address to be certain, but this was the building. There were certain places that certain people tended to gravitate towards. A doctor might be found in a hospital or a well-to-do home. Police stations generally housed officers. If she were looking for a grave robber, Zoe would start at a cemetery at night. A brightly lit five-star hotel in the center of a moderately sized town was the last place she would have looked…

Rats

by Tower Curator — Zoe was not enjoying her assignment. It was new magic--new to her, at least. Exactly the kind of magic she liked getting her hands on. But it was all wrong. Zoe had always been a firm proponent of the idea that magic was inherently neutral. Magic that other mages might consider 'white' could be used for nefarious purposes while 'black' magic was just as suited towards helping people as it was to hurting people. Magic was a tool. Nothing more. What someone did with that tool was entirely up to…

Granted Eyes

by Tower Curator — "Demon of strength?" Arachne let out a long laugh. "When I kill you, I think I will be taking your title." "Fool. Such arrogance will be your demise." Arachne laughed again. As if. The carnivean only had one tentacle of any significant length remaining. And that would soon be gone. It was disappointing, actually. Carniveans were supposed to be strong. Very strong. Sure, if it managed to wrap a tentacle around anything, that thing would break off--two of Arachne's legs and most of one arm were…

Illusions

by Tower Curator — "There," Arachne said. Not that she needed to say anything. Eva could feel the flames from a block away. Particles of blood started vanishing from her control as they neared the inferno. "See anyone?" "They're still around." Arachne's long tongue darted out of her mouth to run across her lips. "I can almost taste them." "Don't get eager. If it looks like a trap, we're running." Eva focused on her blood sense. It wouldn't help if the demons had a trick like Ylva in sunlight, but it was the…

Riot at the Warehouse

by Tower Curator — "Get out of our town!" "...more damage than..." "...cost us our livelihoods." Martina Turner stalked through the gathered crowd with a grin on her face. Of course, it was well hidden in the shadows of her hood. Plenty others in the crowd had hoods. She wouldn't be singled out because of it. Her entire attire changed simply to avoid being recognized. It was amazing how wearing a distinctive costume every day made people's gazes shift right over her when she changed to more normal clothing. Of…
