LOWW-17Chapter 17:When Plans Backfire The group had Just left the starting line on their third run when they were passed at high speed by Marcus and Tanya, both on snowboards of a different design than the one Moonfire was on. They swerved to spill off some speed and shifted their weight to the back of their boards, slowing down to come neck and neck with the others as they went down the first straightaway. Marcus Yelled over the wind, "Why didn't anyone tell me there was snowboarding here? I love this sport!" Then he shifted his weight forward and picked up speed, leaving the others behind, Including Tanya. He reached the turn first and took
LOWW-16Chapter 16: Well Deserved Break Marcus, Sagegrass, and Lupis were in a circle shaped room. At one side was a bed with a curtain around it. Lupis melted back into his small humanoid form and spoke to Marcus and Sage, "Akaila and Agilos will be fine, I successfully put his energy back in the gem without harming Akaila, I left the wings, though. They had a different aura about them than the rest of her, I can only assume that Agilos wants her to have them. She sould wake up in a few hours, But that is not the important thing, We need to contain Leonasa. Sage, remove your eyepatch, I need to see what we are dealing with." Sage removed his e
LOWW-15Chapter 15:Good Lord As Akaila, Marcus, and the others were coming over the peak of Lupis Mountain, Sarah was limping her skyhawk back to Icewall. The crystal drive was failing and she barely maneuvered over the landing pad when it died, sending a shower of sparks from the damaged wing and a billowing cloud of blue dust out of the intakes and exhaust as the hollow shell of the crystal inside shattered, the sky hawk landing hard on the concrete below. As Sarah opened the canopy and was stepping out of the skyhawk, she heard a grunt come from behind her seat, she tipped it forward to reveal Jake the fox. "Benr, sebu! Where did you learn t
LOWW-14Chapter 14:Minor Repairs "What a fimjaff" Tanya thought to herself as she continued to watch the compass needle to make sure they were on course. Several hours had passed and the sunlight had been gone for a while now. Luckily it was a full moon, providing mild light, but she still had some difficulty maintaining a stable altitude. She looked up at the sky and guessed by the position of the moon that it was some time between midnight and two in the morning. Just thinking about how late it was made her sleepy, and she began to dose off. She woke to the sound of scraping metal on wood, the truck had lost altitude while she was asleep and
How Dracano Came To Be part 20How Dracano Came To Be part 20 I opened my eyes, I was in a dreamscape again, I had grown used to this now, I no longer had typical dreams unless I choose to, my "default" sleeping mode now was the lucid variant. I was at a drive-in theatre, it was dark out, and there were hundreds of stars above, I saw an Abrahams tank parked in the middle of the parking lot, so I jogged over, Danielle was sitting on top of it, munching on a bag of popcorn, and when she saw me, she said "you know, even though this stuff isn't real, it still tastes really good.""Indeed, what are you watching?""Your transformation, from beginning to end." I jumped
How Dracano Came To Be part 19How Dracano Came To Be Part 19 The next few days passed by quite nicely for me, I managed to retrieve my things from the storage unit they had been put in, and Gresala had made a room for me out of part of the bunker. As it turned out, their house actually was a bunker, and old WWII one which Greywing bought from the government, the "homey" part of it was just grout and spackle, there were large concrete corridors on the other sides of some of the doors. Oddly, ever since my mental encounter with my alter ego, I could walk bipedal when I wanted again, I was glad to recover that piece of humanity, but Granite didn't seem to like that I c
How Dracano Came To Be part 18How Dracano Came To Be part 18 I opened my eyes, it was like I was in a Freddy Krueger movie, I was in what appeared to be a normal place, it seemed nice and friendly, it was my mind's interpretation of Wal-mart, a massive store, crowded with random people, who didn't even notice me, I wouldn't be able to concentrate well here, so I thought hard, and swapped the environment out with the Utah Salt flats, a nice open area with no distractions. She soon appeared, and trotted towards me "You're asleep again so soon? What happened? You aren't sick, are you?""Don't give me that crap, Shade was watching me last time I was asleep, he heard th
The Mind Manifests Part 1intro / teaser "A cluster of space debris has been tracked approaching Earth, almost all of the meteorites should burn up in the upper atmosphere, giving a wonderful lightshow worldwide over the next couple days, truly the meteor shower of the millennium, simply be outside after dark, to see countless trails of light, this shower is not expected to end for 48 hours" I turned off the TV and looked out the window, seeing one or two streaks of light. I didn't have anything planned for the night, so I figured it couldn't hurt to have some meditation time outside. I was already feeling far too stressed with all the crap t
The Mind Manifests 2The Mind Manifests Chapter 2 I woke up in a strange place, I was drifting through space, I had no material body, I was just a drifting consciousness, all around me were hundreds of thousands of others, every creature imaginable, just hovering about. I looked down and I saw a large blue sphere, approaching faster and faster and faster. I then realized it was not it apporaching me, but me aporaching it. I kept gaining speed and just as I thought I couldn't go any faster, fire began forming around me, and it kept getting hotter and hotter. I was plunging into an atmosphere of a strange world. I couldn't take the heat, it was unbearable, I ju
The Mind Manifests 3The Mind Manifests Chapter 3 My Dad leaned against the sink and motioned for me to sit down on the side of the tub, so I did, my wings and tail taking up most of it. Once I was seated, he began "I never really thought something like this was possible, so I never planned for it, but it's happening nonetheless. I read that book you wrote, and in it you took off and hid in a cave for two weeks, before hanging out with dragons for half a year. I need to know that you know that you won't need to do that in real life, your Mother and I will be here for you, you don't need to worry, you're still our son, no matter what happens."
The Mind Manifests 4The Mind Manifests Chapter 4 I hit the floor just as David started filming. Everyone would see this, and this was the last step, I had to save face, no matter how bad it hurt, I had to maintain composure, I couldn't let myself break down. The changes started on my feet first and progressed rapidly. My shins shortened as my feet grew longer. My four smaller toes on each foot fused into two larger toes, making a total of three on each foot as the toenails on the remaining, larger ones, grew longer and sharper, mutating into claws, as a dewclaw, or talon, whichever you prefer to call it, pushed out of my heel. In mere seconds, scales met o
The Horsemen Tanya crested the peak of the hill and stood before the foul wind. The horseman of pestilence smirked, staring right back at her, “Most humans run in terror before me, why is it that you, of all mortals, stand your ground?” “Most humans can't fathom the true meaning of necrosis. They think that rot and pestilence are merely of the flesh. They've never perceived the cancerous erosion of men's souls. They aren't familiar with the wasting of the mind and of the heart that comes as a result of true rot. I am. True rot comes from within, when one fails to tend their own soul their ability to grow love dies. It is because of

Holy Unborn 1Holy Unborn Chapter 1Red Letter I read the note once more for good measure, just to be sure I read it right; Addressing Dr. Harrison in relation to potential employment; I've followed your work for a while now, and I feel that you could make a very unique contribution to a little project of mine. Your breakthroughs in steam power and paranormal interactions thoroughly delight me. When I heard about you successfully drawing power from an earthly layline, I knew I found the technician I needed. You see, my project, which I can't reveal specifics of, on the chance this letter find it's way to another's eyes, involves the use of geo
Holy Unborn 2Holy Unborn Chapter 2Paranormal Inquisitions After some time, I got bored waiting, so I ventured out into the hallways. I was sure to lock the door to my room before departing, though the reason for keeping it locked was a mystery to me, as it seemed there were very few who would dare come to this place. As I walked along the halls, I kept feeling odd sensations. This place seemed to not conform to normalcy, something seemed off. I desperately wanted to know what the Baron was planning now, so I deigned to find the dining hall on my own. Several minutes into my task, I realized why the butler was supposed to escort me, this place w
Holy Unborn 3Holy Unborn Chapter 3Unpleasant Pheasant I cautiously went to my room and locked the door behind me. I was still pondering what she had told me. Though it seemed absurd, I began scouting my room for anything out of sorts. It was only a short while before I remembered the spot on the rug my runestone was drawn to. I pulled away the rug and stared in awe. Burned into the floorboards was a large runic seal. I retrieved several of my devices and carefully charted where the energies were from it. I was appalled when I found that they converged on my bed. I readied a Bunsen burner, and placed a prod over it to heat, then carefully analyz
Holy Unborn 4Holy Unborn Chapter 4Ghost In The Machine I awoke to a loud crashing. I sat up quickly in bed, and saw that the patch on the window was gone. It was still quite dark, so I hurriedly sparked a lamp before looking around the room. I was shocked when I found it. On the floor, flopping around, was the bird, a large shard of glass in it's chest. That wound looked fatal, but the undead creature just flopped around in spite of it. I decided I couldn't bear it any longer, I had to destroy the bird completely, so I went to the stove and began stoking it. It was no time at all before I had a hot roaring flame. I put on my gloves again, and w
