Combat Class

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…

The Invitation

by Tower Curator — A hot fire burned away the cold October air. It crackled and warmed the young instructor's office. The professor sat in her chair, calmly reading through a thin book as the red flames scorched the walls of her fireplace. Zoe Baxter sighed and snapped her book shut. She tossed it into a pile of similar books and grabbed the next book on her stack. It slipped from her tired fingers and clattered to the floor. Zoe didn't bother to pick it up. If the pile of worthless books was any indication, it wouldn't…

Crystal Courier

by Tower Curator — "To be fair, if she hadn't summoned a demon, Arachne and I wouldn't have known where to look. In fact, we had been heading in the wrong direction prior to her summoning." Both Genoa and Carlos turned away from their daughter to glare at Eva. Behind them, sitting in the living room chair like it was the hot seat in an interrogation room, Juliana looked up and gave Eva a slight smile. A smile that did nothing to offset the intensity of her parents' glares. Under other circumstances, Eva might have wilted…

Stress

by Tower Curator — Ylva didn't sleep. At all. Zoe wasn't quite sure what she expected, but she had laid out a fairly fancy bed for the demon. She had a gigantic bed in her domain, after all. Unless that entire thing was solely for Nel. It wasn't until the first week had passed that Zoe got any kind of real sleep in. Her time was spent watching Ylva. Waiting for her to do something. On the first night, Ylva had gone around and inspected seemingly every object in Zoe's apartment. Some, she would pass by with barely…

Clairaudience

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…

Brakket Magical Academy

by Tower Curator — Classes at Brakket were far more interesting than any class at a non magical school. That was simply by virtue of most classes having magic flying around them. The teachers themselves weren't all that different. Class might be better if Eva had been more new to the whole magic scene. The school building itself was a boring affair. Eva felt sure it was built by regular people. None of the rooms even had the oddities that the dorm study rooms had. The only exception to this was the courtyard. The…

Melancholy

by Tower Curator — It was surprising how normal everything seemed. Not seemed. Everything was normal. Just like after Halloween, people's lives went on. School went on. Learning went on. Everyone just ignored the empty table where her students usually sat. And there was nothing Zoe Baxter could do about it. The students who had come to class were not paying any sort of attention. Not surprising. Zoe was only going through the motions of her lesson. No personal touch, no emphasis or animation in her actions.…

Irene’s Lunch

by Tower Curator — No Eva, no Shalise, no Juliana. Irene didn't like it. None of the teachers told her or Shelby anything. Whatever caused their absence only happened two days ago and yet all three were missing from class. From the tiny amount that they were told, Juliana wasn't even there when their room was trashed. Again. Maybe her mother finally pulled her out of school for good. Irene hadn't given up hope that her own mother would decide the school was too dangerous for her. It was too dangerous. Whatever…

Juliana in the Dorm

by Tower Curator — An awkward air hung about the usual group. No one talked, no one laughed. Everyone sat around picking at their food. Everyone except for Max. He had his usual double helping of refried beans and a side of string beans. Eva wasn't sure what was up with everyone. Juliana, she could understand. The girl had barely spoken two words since Eva refused to talk about blood magics or demonology. She didn't think she had done anything to the others. None of them asked about Shalise. Either they already knew…

Aftermath

by Tower Curator — How disgusting. Elves. Loathsome beasts. They always found a way to disgust. Wallowing in their own filth as they served their human masters. Slaves without chains. Every elf read the works of Tolkien as they grew up. Since their fall, they dressed themselves up after the elves of Middle-earth. Mannered themselves as wise and nature oriented. An attempt at endearing themselves to humans. Catherine couldn't help but think it was mildly successful. The humans seemed to trust them…
