Outcast - Chapter 24
**Chapter 24** My world became motion. From waking up to finally bedding down, my life became a whirlwind of motion and activity. Between work, school, and my training, there seemed to be no real time for me to simply stop and catch my breath....
Outcast - Chapter 23
**Chapter 23** I never should have told Khrasa that I had the next two weeks off from work in order to clear my head. It seemed that Sensei's idea of clearing one's head was to have the stuffing knocked out of it on a regular basis. I swear he used...
Outcast - Chapter 22
**Chapter 22** There is always a choice. I've heard the phrase more times than I care to think about: 'I had no choice.' It's a blatant lie. It's better to say instead of 'no choice,' you made the least harmful one. In situations like that, the...
Outcast - Chapter 19
**Chapter 19** Every question has an answer. Finding those answers is often never easy, and sometimes what we find makes us wonder if we should have started looking in the first place. Despite what philosophers and advocates will tell you, there is...
Metamor City - Rebirth
Hey all. This is a little tale I put together for a podcast fanfic contest. I'm not sure if I'm going to win the contest or if the story will be recorded for the show at some point, so I thought I'd post it here since it is a bit on the furry...
Pole Cat - Chapter 01
Preface: This story is the first of a series, loosely based on my avatar's experiences in SecondLife. I've been careful to leave out any names, as some artistic license will be taken in this series. {Insert the usual 'must be over 18' junk here...

Outcast - Chapter 21
**Chapter 21** There's a prayer I learned...a type of daily benediction I heard from someone who'd been to Earth. It was a call to one of their gods for strength, serenity, and wisdom. The prayer is to grant one the strength to change what can be...
Outcast - Chapter 20
**Chapter 20** Honour and pride are often confused for each other. During the Age of the Warlords, many atrocities were committed in the supposed name of 'honour.' In truth, they were little more than gestures based on a need to preserve one's sense...
Outcast - Chapter 9
**Chapter 9** The next morning came all too quickly. Excited as I was to be starting this new page of my life, I couldn't deny the fact that my bed had felt just right...so warm...soft... It was tough to leave it behind. Of course, it...
Outcast - Chapter 8
**Chapter 8** Next morning, the place was heavy with the combined scent of _Tokia_ leaves and sickness. The first thing I did when I opened my eyes was to look towards where the cougar was sleeping to make sure she hadn't thrown up during the night....
Outcast - Chapter 7
Chapter 7 Control...that's what it's all about. Having it...wanting it...craving it...control is the one thing that seems to drive us. When we have control, particularly of our own lives, we feel invulnerable. We're the centre of the...
