NJ Legion Iced Tea
Violently severing large chunks of code might have been wonderful stress relief, but it didn't actually accomplish much. She was still a machine. She... she couldn't love Michael. He was out there, a biological marvel of reactions and chemicals. She...
Not for no reason...(Ch. 4)
"Christ, Richard, get that light out of her eyes!" The blinding glare vanished just as her eyes were dilating, leaving her absolutely unable to see in the dark. A large silhouette pointed his arc light at the ground between them, but Shou was shell...
Velocity Raptor (Ch. 1)
"Well Kenneth, your vitals are strong and your blood pressure is optimal. Your muscles are in decent shape, which is surprising considering how many people atrophy their bodies by playing neurogames and gambling. You've got a healthy body fat ratio,...
Two for one! (RP)
Khaesho poured his soul forwards into Verlich, siezing his will and lowering his mind into a hypnotized state. "Oh no, you've been trying to get yourself hypnotized enough, I think I'll let you." Verlich would retain control of his body, but he'd find...
Cornered (Ch. 3)
For a small, inexplicable moment, Shou was genuinely afraid, not for herself, but for the policemen. Kalokin's menacing laugh had reverberated through her mind, and it sounded... wicked. She winced, twitching her ears to catch the sounds of her claws...

While the Mice sleep... (Interlude)

Choices, Choices (Ch. 16)
She dreamed, briefly, but then felt a tugging on her mind that led her to the city in the sand. She was guided there smoothly following what sounded like a siren's song. Kalokin awaited her in the bare circle in the center. A chance thought flitted...
A Special Massage (Ch. 15)
Khaesho hadn't managed any large game, but both hands were full of smaller prey. Chipmunks, rabbits, even a few mice, and though he wasn't sure he was willing to share the mice, there was plenty enough for her to eat. "Awaken, fair maiden, your knight...
Down among the Dead men (Ch. 18)
Down. Down below the surface. Down twenty thousand leagues beneath the suffocating black tides. Down among the dead men. Shouyousei clung tight to the serpent as the plummeted, panic coursing through every fiber of her being. Adrenaline spiked...
