Apollo July 24th, 2017 10:24 PM Apollo couldn’t stop fidgeting, and he really wasn’t sure why his blood felt hot. Irritated was a word he thought of, but it wasn’t quite that. It was a little more. A little more in a way that scratched his neck until nearly bleeding, or that his slicked hair stuck to his suit or …

Dion July 24th, 2017 7:03 PM He grabbed her by the mouth with that iron grip pinching the corners of her moaning gasp. By the fifth thrust, she began to wiggle away. By the seventh, she had enough and with one hand against his chest, pulled him out of her and let him stand in the naked, cold air. Erect …

The Priest July 24th, 2017 5:03 PM At five in the afternoon, for the last three days, the Priest had been at the ready. He stood in front of the door and knocked in his usual habit. And by five-twenty in the afternoon, he would leave. It was like that. Routine. He felt like a debt collector. It wasn’t unreasonable …

Apollo July 20th, 2017 1:30 AM “You’re surprisingly calm,” Apollo said. “Well, we’re working, aren’t we? And I’ve already messed up enough.” Dion came around the corner, barrels pointed to the hallway. Apollo turned as well, finger pointed to his lips. They both stood on opposite walls, ears to the walls. They could hear breathing. The house was alive. They …

Sophie July 20th, 2017 1:21 AM It was a long struggle Sophie put up before she came to the spot of her death. Though she did not know it yet. For at the moment all she knew was the sharp pain in her lungs from cold air. And the stiffness of her ankles and ache of her hips in twisting …

Dion July 20th, 2017 1:16 AM Dion heard his gun drop before he felt the bite on his shoulder like a bear trap had been clapped on the bone hinges of his shoulder, and left there to bleed him. It felt like liquid strength flowing out of him. And it was a pain so harsh he shot the floor. The …

 AlestorJuly 20th, 20171:08 AM They laid on their bellies and rolled on the floor with an intensity that made Alestor cringe like animals. You could call them cultists. Lost sheep was a better word. Pigs for slaughter was probably the best word. And these children of Astyanax dragged themselves on the dirty floor with their mouths agape and their …

Apollo July 20th, 2017 1:02 AM The Vicars did not see the hellhounds coming. Only felt them, the wind that flexed next to them with each of their violent passes through the doors around them. They saw glimpses of them. Yellow eyes, moving so fast that only the passing after-image could be seen. Blue eyes. Blue, yellow, running across the …

Apollo July 20th, 2017 12:56 AM He got the call to the good fight. Right there in his rear pockets, the rumbling phone that glowed with the bold letters. ‘4564 Malibu Dr.’ He looked out the window. It’s time. To his side, the ceremonial dagger. On his other side, a table loaded to the brim with papers and stacks. And on …

Dion July 20th, 2017 12:41 AM Throughout the whole day, Dion had done nothing but errands. By his count: he had stopped four muggings, had helped two old ladies cross and by evening come, had finished three different bar fights. As a note here, he hadn’t even found a single piece of information regarding the Vampire of Havenbrook. Or the …
