    • Substitutiary Locomotion Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva seethed. It took a great deal of willpower to not blink behind him and take off his head. He was a student. She couldn't just kill him. Not without inviting all kinds of trouble at least. To the side, Srey edged closer to Juliana. He slipped just behind her, peeking out over her shoulder. It took Eva a moment to figure out what he was doing. Really, she should have realized based on how all the demons reacted around her. He was cowering behind a human. And he was leaving his back open to a…

      Flames

      Flames Cover
      by Tower Curator The sky burst into flames. Catherine couldn't help herself. Despite the mild danger of being stuck in an almost hypnotic trance should she stare at the massive eye overhead, she looked up. Burning meteors raced towards the eye from the edges of the shimmering portals. One impacted one of the molten teardrops. Rather than be forced down towards Earth, it continued straight towards the eye, neither stopped or slowed. Everywhere one of the meteors hit, the eye caved inwards. Like a giant bed sheet with…

      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…
    • Book Eight Epilogue Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva stood in the middle of a small clearing. Not the one a short distance from her prison. This clearing was out in the Infinite Courtyard in the center of Brakket Academy's main building. This would hopefully prove to be a much safer alternative. Or at least, more difficult to reach for the hunters. One, perhaps the more troublesome one, was dead. If Eva didn't miss her mark, the other might return with something of a grudge. Assuming she didn't starve to death because she couldn't feed herself…

      Inspections

      Inspections Cover
      by Tower Curator Catherine paced around the Brakket Academy lobby. She walked up to the potted plant in the corner, turned and walked to the window, and turned back to the potted plant. With every step, she grew more and more impatient. Had Eva told her to wait in the dormitory, she might have been able to relax. But Anderson's door was right there. He could pop out at any time. Theoretically, there was nothing to fear. Catherine was free from any contracts at the moment. She wouldn't be beholden to stick around and…

      New Arrivals

      New Arrivals Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva's forehead throbbed. Not horribly. She had suffered through worse headaches before. The ritual to share Sawyer's senses for one and anytime enigmas were around for another. And this current headache was already subsiding to unnoticeable levels. The only reason the headache was special at all was the cause. A dozen demons were making their way from the outskirts of town towards Brakket Academy. Altogether, they weren't so bad. It was just that they had all come into Eva's range at the same…

      Preparation

      Preparation Cover
      by Tower Curator "I don't see why you need me for this." Juliana's concentration collapsed. Along with it went the few particles of iron that she had managed to conjure up. She took a deep breath and let it out as a long sigh. "All that progress. Gone. Just like that." "Progress? You've been standing in one spot for the last hour doing nothing." "Didn't you see all the iron? I conjured that." "I saw nothing." "Then you weren't looking." Arachne glanced off to the side, looking back towards the…
    • A Crack in the Sky Cover
      by Tower Curator "Alright! Let's move!" Eva shouted out over the somewhat smoldering field. Arachne was a short distance away, clearing out a few tumbleweeds. Vektul and Srey were both near each other and, as such, near Eva as well. As soon as Arachne heard the shout, she dropped her tumbleweed to the ground and started running towards Eva without hesitation. As she ran, Eva took the time to extinguish her lingering flames. While she wanted to burn down a good portion of the area, she didn't want to start an…

      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…

      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…
