Sinori's Tale - Chapter Five
I woke up to a sudden feeling of pain at my back... and then I was slammed into a wall. Instinct took over. I scrambled to get my legs under me and shut out the pain screaming from my back and my side. I had to get out. That was priority one -...
Sinori's Tale - Chapter Four
I woke several times during the day, and finally gave up trying to sleep closer towards the afternoon. It was early for me to be up, but I was feeling too annoyed and guilty to really rest. Hunger was starting to become more noticeable too - I had...
Sinori's Tale - Chapter Three
The next few days were nice. I didn't do much the very next day - I didn't want to run out of food before another job came along, so I conserved my energy and lazed around my den. The day after that I ate the second berry, and with that in my belly...
Sinori's Tale - Chapter Two
My stomach rumbled again, but I forced myself to wait. I was hungry, but barging in wouldn't get me fed any faster. It would probably just make it take even longer out of spite. I was waiting in a back alley between two buildings. One of the...
Sinori's Tale - Chapter One
_ My name..._ Long before I was born, _thousands_of years before that moment, I already had a name. A musical sound of syllables strung together to mean me, and none other. A particular inflection, perhaps a bit of awe, maybe a slight amount of...
Sinori's Story - Chapter Five
I opened my eyes. That alone surprised me. I had succeeded - my own history had been changed. I no longer had any roots in reality. How did I still have eyes to open? I was surrounded on all sides by mist. All sides - there was...
Sinori's Story - Chapter Three
"This is... this is _great_!" I blinked in surprise at the Espeon. I had brought her back to Uxie's valley and had just finished explaining the situation to her. How we were trapped here until we caught back up to the moment we were sent back. I...
Sinori's Story - Chapter Four
The Magikarp was having the worst day ever. He had started off the morning trying to find a bite to eat, but anything that seemed even remotely like food all turned out to be the metallic baits used in a fishing pole. Just when he thought he was...
Sinori's Story - Chapter Two
My body felt like it was being twisted in six different ways. I tumbled through the air, vaguely aware that I had fallen out of Phoenix's grip... and then I smacked into something hard. I rolled downwards and finally came to a stop on a rough...
Sinori's Story - Chapter One
I watched Clara walk carefully towards the mountain. Opal limped on her left, moving just as slowly, as they scouted a path through the time-shredded landscape. Sonata rested on Sara's shoulder as she walked behind the Espeon and the Umbreon. The...
Tav's Aftermath
Tav slid his coins across the counter - his last coins - and tried not to grimace as the larger black dragon scooped them up and carried them off. He was now officially broke. That was the last of the money his father had given him. The last of what...
Developing Prints - Chapter 5
"And you said I was breaking the rules by having Autumn in the hotel." Cam looked up at the trainer holding the Fennekin in her arms. "Wha... huh?" Violet laughed, a short giggle that came with a mocking grin. "Back in the shower - you said I was...
