      Stalkers

      Stalkers Cover
      by Tower Curator "I volunteer." Everyone in the room turned to look at Eva. Nobody knew what the event would be. Wallace Redford had been keeping extremely tight lipped about the matter. Eva knew that more than one demon had tried following him around. Probably several humans as well. Then there were the other schools which probably had their own spies. If they had found anything, they weren't sharing. They were supposed to be discussing possibilities. Personally, Eva was just hoping for straight up combat. Maybe…

      Press-Ganged

      Press-Ganged Cover
      by Tower Curator "Everyone must be on their best behavior," Saija said in a mocking tone of voice. It wasn't hard to guess who she was mocking. Anderson had been running around the entire school, snapping at anything out of place. Which, in his eyes, was just about everything and everyone. Especially anyone who had their uniforms crooked, ate messily, slacked off during class, or breathed too loudly. He had landscapers come in and tidy up every visible plant around Brakket. Eva had been concerned that they might…

      Disaster

      Disaster Cover
      by Tower Curator "This is a disaster." Eva took her eyes off Arachne for the first time since the hunter died and the doll ran off. She had plugged every injury that was bleeding, either stopping the blood completely or bridging the gap between veins with solidified blood. Of course, apart from patching them up a little bit, Eva couldn't do all that much to fix Arachne's internal organs. Then again, Eva wasn't sure how much they mattered. Her brain and heart tube were still intact. So the important parts were…
    • Trapped and Trapped Again Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva hit her fist against the barrier. Unlike her first several hits, the barrier barely flickered. Every time she hit it, her strikes got weaker. She could barely lift her arms. Worst of all, she couldn't tell if it was doing anything. The barrier was still keeping her stuck on the platform. Even if it was weakening, it wasn't going to fall before Eva collapsed. Really, she should just stop. Her arms were exhausted. So was she. She should just sit down for a moment, shut her eyes, and take a quick…
    • Assistance Rendered Cover
      by Tower Curator Juliana turned away from Eva with a slight shudder. Her skin had cracked and broken in the blast. If her hair loss had been the extent of her injuries, that would be one thing. It had taken an effort to not throw up when she first saw Eva coming up the stairs. Between her charred black skin, cracks in the char looking like a dried desert, and a red almost glow emitting from between the cracks, she did not look well. Worse, if such a thing was possible, Eva didn't even seem to notice herself. She…
    • Course of Action Cover
      by Tower Curator "Eva! You look..." "Terrible. I know." Eva let Juliana run up to her. She expected some help. Maybe assistance walking or a potion that probably wouldn't do all that much for Eva. But she stopped just short of Eva with a face full of uncertainty and fear. Without having a mirror handy, Eva couldn't tell exactly how terrible she looked. For her appearance to have stopped Juliana cold, Eva was now thinking that it was worse than she had expected. "I'm surprised you survived," Genoa said from…

      Indecision

      Indecision Cover
      by Tower Curator "Well, that's definitely the doll that I saw in Hell." Eva stepped away from the window, looking at the others. Irene and her succubus were standing towards the back of the stairwell. One was trying to look as small as possible while the other continually preened as soon as she thought someone was looking in her direction. Unfortunately for Saija, the doll standing out in the courtyard below was of far more interest to everyone. Juliana and Genoa were both forward a bit more, both looking out the…

      Skyfall

      Skyfall Cover
      by Tower Curator Irene stared at her phone. She had been all worried for Eva and yet Eva just hung up like it was nothing. With a joke about succubi, no less. "Last time I worry about her." "See," Saija said with a wide grin, "I told you it was nothing." "Well, not nothing. She said it was some doll that she knew. Doll," Irene scoffed. "And she has the gall to tease me about..." she trailed off with a slight cough. There was no need to mention what Eva had been teasing her about in front of Saija. Who knew how the…

      Conversations

      Conversations Cover
      by Tower Curator "Wow." Eva rested her head on the table with a soft sigh. She had tried to keep her discussion quiet. That had failed within seconds. Vektul, as Eva had asked of him, had gone around and warned the other demons of the sky cracking idol and the demon hunters. Unfortunately, he had gone around and told everyone during lunch. Everyone, in this case, included more than just the demons. Eva would be surprised if anyone in the whole school didn't know what had happened the night before. Having only…

      Saija and Srey

      Saija and Srey Cover
      by Tower Curator "Weren't you supposed to go back and visit your mother tonight?" Juliana glanced over to Shalise and shrugged. "Still plenty of tonight left." "But... why are we here?" Leaning back in the booth, Juliana snacked on a plate of chips. "There aren't many places open in the evenings." Shalise frowned, sulking slightly in her third of the booth, leaning into the corner. Her dislike of the location was understandable, though not very sensible. The Vertex club had a bit of history with Shalise. It…
