I grappled to a nearby roof, enabling night vision. I tracked two individuals blitzing down a darkened street, eager to flee from their pursuer. They wouldn’t get very far, and it was only by she...

(TEASER) Mysteria: The Unholy One - Chapter I

The Temple of the Twelve had never looked so imposing.

The white structure was the largest in the city, standing at the very center as if to suggest it was the heart. In some ways, it was the...

As I stared distantly, dread pooled in my stomach. I had been here before, briefly over the last few...

String - Finalize 7.3

I glared at the object pinched between my fingers like it was the most vile thing I had ever seen.

We returned to our hideout later that night to move our things to a location Cyberspace help...

You would think out of the five people in the room, the four that had superpowers would hold all the leverage. That, unfortunately, was not the case.

“Business?” Mia murmured, stealing a ...

Red stained the sink as several used gauze pads lay scattered around. First aid wasn’t Carmen’s specialty, but she had to make do with what she had.

Turning the faucet on, Carmen allowed ...

I counted the minutes that passed, watching the action through my scope.

This whole section of the city had lost power, and the ocean water had spread far enough that I couldn’t see where i...

String - Fuse 6.6

The caffeine hit me like a truck.

Coupled with the ham and cheese toasted sandwiches Alice and I shared, we followed the Old Man feeling like new people. No longer were my eyelids heavy, thre...
