Chasing the Sun - Chapter 44: They Whose Blood Does Not Flow

Chasing the Sun - Chapter 49: One Half Metre Under

Chasing the Sun - Chapter 48: Streaks of Blood
Octo dreamt of pain. He could only lie on the bed. The clock showed half to 2 in the morning. The darkness was blinding, so he was thankful for the gentle light from the night lamps. The television on the wall was showing cartoons, yet in his head...
Chasing the Sun - Chapter 47: Battle Symphony
"T-Tom?" As he stared at the grey wolf, Red Wolf, in front of him, Octo could only freeze in shock. Tom looked like he just fought an army; there were several slashes on his clothes and body, his muzzle looked bloody, and most disturbing of all, he...
Chasing the Sun - Chapter 54: A Pile of Snow

Chasing the Sun - Chapter 53: Let Us Meet Again

Chasing the Sun - Chapter 52: Cups of Hot Coffee
The Barrowisle city hall was unusually quiet. The quietness was soon disturbed by the footsteps of an angry black-and-white husky brisking in the corridors, files in his hand. The husky had a scowl on his face, not caring about his rather flushed...
Chasing the Sun - Chapter 51: Under the Winter Sun

Chasing the Sun - Chapter 31: The Memories We Make

Chasing the Sun - Chapter 30: Whom We Trust
Kevin turned the motorcycle engine on. He looked at his reflection in the rear-view mirror and readjusted his red t-shirt. He didn't look too bland, did he? "Tom, come on!" "A bit!" came the reply. For some reason, Octo wasn't happy with them leaving...
Chasing the Sun - Chapter 29: Grey Shadows

Chasing the Sun - Chapter 35: Heavier than Feather
Tom put the cup of tea back down, letting out a sigh. Ah, yes, another episode. He was used to this. This did not bother him much. However, this time, it was different. He had someone precious, someone whom he did not want to hurt. There was a soft...
