The Ryan Story Part VIII
"Danger?" Beth asked as she stood next to Ryan and placed a hand on his shoulder. Mr. Sulvius nodded curtly, still staring at Tanner. "And who are you?" "Tanner Wilberforce, at your service," Tanner said curtly. Ryan noticed that his hand was in his...
The Ryan Story Part VII
Ryan stared at the picture. "My parents," he said again shaking his head. "Dragons..." His mother at him worriedly. "Are you alright?" Ryan blinked in surprise. "Why would I not be?" She sat down next to him and rubbed his back. "Seeing another...
The Ryan Story Part VI
Ryan's father put the last of the bags in the car and slammed down the hatch. Ryan flinched at the sound but otherwise said nothing, feeling cut off from the world and alone in his misery. His mother said his name and he looked at her dully. "It'll be...
The Ryan Story Part V
It felt as if he were flying though jello, as if the air had taken on a thick consistency. He struggled against it trying to get through to the other side, even though he had no idea where he was going or why. He only knew that he must go, he must make...
The Ryan Story IV
Ryan looked out the window in his human form, of course, bored as he could be. He had to find something to do or he would go crazy, he just knew it! He had to find something to do or he would start brooding over what happened last night and he wasn't...
The Ryan Story Part III

Dracius: Origins Part III

Dracius: Origins Part II
"What the hell is it?" Artos said, staring at me with interest. "I'm not rightly sure, Lord Artos. I've certainly never seen the like and I've roamed these woods since I was strong enough to draw a bow," Lady El said. She was not actually "Lady El" at...
Dracius: Origin
They, or I should say he, have asked me to record my earliest memories and at least some of my history. I will say at the outset that I am not at all comfortable with this idea but that I will, as I always have, try to please him. Some would say it is...
Dracius: Origins Part V
I awoke the next morning and sat up, then flinched, startled at the surroundings, uncertain of where I was for a moment. I quickly looked at the bed where Artos had lay down the night before but he arisen before me. There was a twinge of nervousness at...
