      Huh

      Huh Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva's eyes snapped open to find the stone surface of the ritual circle, still glowing in a vibrant violet light. She wasn't sure when she had closed her eyes. A deep rumbling in the ground beneath her feet had pulled her out of her torpor. Seeing the ritual circle sent a jolt through Eva's body. She couldn't believe that she had fallen asleep. Straining the muscles in her neck, she barely managed to look straight forwards. And her head ached every moment of the way. She only just got to see…

      Help from Below

      Help from Below Cover
      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…

      Heart of Stone

      Heart of Stone Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva opened her eyes, surprised to find she had eyes to open after watching the avatar being torn apart in the walls of the teleportation tunnel. She had fully expected to be torn apart as well. Even if Void reclaimed her, she would still have awoken in that void where nothing existed save for her mind. Awaking in a familiar place, staring at a familiar cracked sandstone ceiling, Eva let out a soft sigh. The women's ward. Her own bed. Definitely a far cry from the endless abyss that had been her earlier…

      Hard Work Pays Off

      Hard Work Pays Off Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva couldn't be more pleased with the way things were going. The second event was coming up in two days. She didn't have to participate in it. The ritual circle was nearly finished. It wouldn't be done by the time of the second event, but would definitely be done before the third. Especially if they decided to have a longer break between events for the December holidays. With Anise and Chris both helping, their progress had been through the roof. Of course, Eva still needed to find people for the…

      Halloween Streets

      Halloween Streets Cover
      by Tower Curator "Terrible night, isn't it?" "Is this an attempt at small talk?" The man grumbled something under his breath. Zoe took her eyes off searching the streets and glanced at him. Wayne's eyes searched the tops of buildings as they walked down the deserted street. He, like her, was fully dressed in his usual black suit. He held a large tome open in one hand as if he was in the middle of reading it. He wasn't, of course. Zoe had never understood why he used a tome as a focus. Their storage capacity…

      Halloween Club

      Halloween Club Cover
      by Tower Curator "This is a nightmare." "How did things come to this?" Eva shared a glance with Juliana. Beads of sweat dripped down her forehead despite the cold October air. "If only you'd have done this earlier," Shalise said at their backs. The two sighed at the same time and each turned back to their current enemy. "I don't even think that one has a chest," Juliana said with a look of disgust. "This is supposed to be a school. For kids. How can they let something like this happen." "No. It just got…

      Halloween Aftermath

      Halloween Aftermath Cover
      by Tower Curator Wayne Lurcher had never been one for passive action. The very phrase was an oxymoron he couldn't stand. And yet here he sat, in a meeting room, listening to Rebbecca Halsey panic. The dean had called an emergency meeting to try to figure out what went on last night and what the damage was. If the senile woman had any clue, she would realize that no answers would be found in a meeting with the faculty. Especially because the only one who might have any answers at all was absent. He cast a sullen…

      Guests

      Guests Cover
      by Tower Curator No one could say that Brakket Academy wasn't welcoming towards its guests. Anderson had pulled out all the stops to make them feel as comfortable as possible even with all the demons wandering around. Though with his order for the demons to remain hidden, the only obvious demonic beings were Arachne and Eva. After having her inhuman hands revealed in public, Eva had gotten her fair share of stares. Getting a few more was nothing special. And the meal was doing a decent job of distracting everyone. A…

      Granted Eyes

      Granted Eyes Cover
      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…

      Goodbyes

      Goodbyes Cover
      by Tower Curator Eva stretched, rubbing the last vestiges of sleep from her eyes. The sky outside her window had the blue tint of pre-dawn morning. Eva smiled, glad she got up at a more reasonable time than the day before. She swung her legs out of bed and almost stepped on the sleeping Arachne. Her lithe weight would probably not even be noticed by the demon, and if it was, it sure wouldn't hurt her. Still, Eva carefully stepped over Arachne. After hopping in and out of the shower, Eva found Arachne had moved to…
