Skyfall Chapter 5

Skyfall Chapter 4
We went back to a room in the medical wing that reminded me of the place I first woke up in, cold and sterile. It was a small room with a bed covered in white tissue, and some cabinets on the wall. Misha told me to sit on the bed. I watched...
Skyfall Chapter 3
I hadn't seen Misha much since the tour. Most days I ended up sitting in my room waiting for the next day to arrive. I would have been bored if I did not have endless information to search through in my head. I was becoming frustrated with...
Skyfall Chapter 2

Skyfall Chapter 10

Skyfall Chapter 9
9 Misha stirred in my arms as we slept. Slowly, I became conscious. I woke up curled around Misha's small figure, holding him tightly in my arms. My heart began to race. Part of me couldn't believe what had happened was real. Misha had told me he...
Skyfall Chapter 8
8 "Come on, Decipher," Misha begged, "If you can stand today, I want to show you where I live." I groaned. Ever since Misha had discovered a small injury to my spine, he had been determined to make me walk. I slowly stood up from the bed as my...
