Collared - Chapter 9 - Advance
Sera had never been to the Registry before. She'd had her reasons, but now, as she made her way into the grandiose lobby, they didn't seem so convincing. The Registry was designed with more elegance than an InCorp building, and frankly reminded her of...
Collared - Chapter 11 - Accumulate
"Start from the beginning." Canaan instructed as he settled into his high backed leather chair, shifting around and getting comfortable. Around the sides of the chair, Isaac had an exquisite view of the city below. From a distance, the city of...
Collared - Chapter 14 - Daydream
_[You__are too weak. Sometimes you have to let someone else take care of things. You can not always save the day, especially if you are not willing to fight.]_ The words echoed through Isaac's head, the only fixed point in the chaos. He knew what had...
Collared - Chapter 24 - The Last Drop of Rain on the Precipice
The world was full of magic, fantastic things that defied explanation. Around every corner, a new miracle or devastation, an undreamed of way to live, an unfathomable way to die. It was a world of _magic_, and the fact was, exactly why it worked was...
Collared - Chapter 13 - Nightmare
Cause and effect. It is impossible to be sure what consequences our actions will have. We can only do our best to estimate the outcome. No one can know the future, because it is uncertain. Molded not only by the choices that we make, but the choices of...
Collared - Chapter 8 - Sidetrack

Collared - Chapter 17 - Home
It was a comforting sound, the _rack rack rack_ of the knock on the door. The door had a doorbell, and an intercom, and a camera. It had all of the best security systems that money could buy. Even Jensen might have had trouble slipping through that...
Collared - Chapter 18 - Powdertrail
It was the cold, more than the hunger, that got to him. He wasn't going hungry, of course, so that might have had something to do with it. It was much easier to steal food than steal warmth, after all. To steal warmth, that took some time, planning,...
Collared Faith - Chapter 1 - Unexpected Visitor
It was from high on the catwalk that Jason looked down on the theater patrons as they slowly shuffled down the aisles, out of the auditorium and into the night. Once upon a time, this had been the perfect time to strike, to slip into the crowd as they...
Collared Interlude 1 - Birthrite
The sky was overcast, weather not befitting of the gravity of the day. It seemed as if the heavens would pour at a moments notice, but they never did. It remained dry, with a chilly wind and a gloomy atmosphere. The black haired youth stood with his...
Collared - Chapter 20 - Lance
Already having changed his outfit four times, with a huff, the blonde boy slumped back into his desk chair, letting out a pathetic groan. Never once before had he cared about how he looked, at least not in regards to a _girl_ (or guy, he had to...
