An actress in our midst!, Ch38 – At last!

The trio of shadows scuttled through the cave, following the map drawn by their scouts.

“In here?” “You sure?” “Yes.”

The cavern twisted and turne...

An actress in our midst!, Ch37 - Oh, hello again!

A/N: OwO what's this? An extra chapter this week? Yes! I'm finally managing to write and edit enough to be way ahead of schedule! Enjoy!

“Wh...

An actress in our midst!, Ch36 - Disaster!

The story so far had been quite shocking. Apparently, the original magical girls and the demon lord had started out as friends. Max had a hard time reconciling that image with the regular battles m...

An actress in our midst!, Ch35 - The past!

“For the two of us, it started when Trish and Sally – that is, the first Pretty Flame and first Pretty Spark – invited us to hang out at some secret hideout they made… or so they claimed,�...

An actress in our midst!, Ch34 – Answers!

“I’m home…” he mumbled under his breath as he closed the door behind him. As always, he did it gently and without making any noise. The door hadn’t hurt him, after all.

Leader’s r...

An actress in our midst!, Ch33 - We’re the bad guys?!

Pretty Flame shuddered as she rematerialized inside the shipping container next to her teammates. She looked over her shoulder to see the odd swirling ball of magic slow down and eventually vanish....

An actress in our midst!, Ch32 - Confrontation!

The shout startled all three of them. Cody jumped, Jessica snapped her head toward the source while the rest of her body froze, and Max summoned his demonic sword to his hand on reflex.

The m...

An actress in our midst!, Ch31 - Portal!

The three of them arrived at about the same time. Spark waved at them from her hiding spot, beckoning them to land.

“Spark! You okay? Where’s the demon?” Flame yelled out while looking ...

An actress in our midst!, Ch30 - Realization!

“Good job, everyone,” Frost nodded to the others.

“Yeah… Ugh, this is just gonna keep happening, isn’t it?” Spark groaned.

“At least we resolved this one before it got out...

An actress in our midst!, Ch29 - Mom?!

“I’m home…” he muttered under his breath as he closed the door behind him. As usual, his voice sounded horrible without the voice changer tool, but that was to be expected. He couldn’t ex...

An actress in our midst!, Ch28 – Prepare yourself!

She lifted her hand and rapped her knuckles on the door.

“Enter,” the familiar authoritative voice called out from beyond it.

Jessica grabbed the door handle to open it and let hers...

An actress in our midst!, Ch27 – Stupid demons!

With a wave of her hand, the flames swayed like a spiderweb in a wind, before curling up and converging into Flame’s hand.

On the other side of the room, the shards of ice finally clicked t...

An actress in our midst!, Ch26 - Training montage!

Jessica huffed as she climbed to the top before wiping sweat off of her forehead and looking into the distance. She then pulled out a map from her bag and splayed it in front of her.

She humm...

An actress in our midst!, Ch25 - Discussion!

“You alright?” Cody asked, unsure.

“Yeah, I’m fine! That ointment worked like magic! You can stop asking me now!” Jessica said while rolling her eyes.

“Sure, if you say so�...

An actress in our midst!, Ch24 - Gaming night!

“Well, I was pretty speechless at first because of you being you. But once I calmed down and thought back on it then… I mean, come on! Did you see his ass?”

Jessica gl...

An actress in our midst!, Ch23 – Observation!

Out of everyone under his guidance, Jessica was definitely one of the wildest and most unpredictable ones. Also, absolutely uncaring about who she was throwing her spiked words at.

Honestly, ...

An actress in our midst!, Ch22 - Weapon!

Jessica frowned as she looked over her creation.

It was a jet-black crystalline spear, made of various gems she’d found out in the demon realm, infused with magic and put together to form a...

An actress in our midst!, Ch21 – Fifth one!

The demon attacks didn’t always have an obvious goal or even target. After all, why attack an amusement park? Just to cause panic and chaos? Or was there some greater plan at play?

That see...

An actress in our midst!, Ch20 - Psych!

“What were you even doing here?! Why didn’t you run away?!” Pretty Spark shouted at Jessica as she sat on the ground.

“Erm… just hanging around? I didn’t think things would explod...

An actress in our midst!, Ch19 - Pool!

Jessica took a deep breath before breathing out a delighted ‘Aaah…’

The sun was shining, water was splashing about, and Erika was in a swimsuit! The essence of summer. How dare her past...

An actress in our midst!, Ch18 – Breakthrough!

The library in the demon castle featured a plethora of books on all sorts of subjects. Magic, swordfighting, cooking, gardening… But oddly enough, the one subject conspicuously missing was histor...

An actress in our midst!, Ch17 - Cipher!

The two ran into each other on the way.

“Hey, Iris.” Sarah waved at her teammate.

“Oh, hey.” Iris smiled back at Sarah.

Just like everyone else, she didn’t look all that...

An actress in our midst!, Ch16 – Bullseye!

She breathed out as her eyes narrowed and her fingers let go. The arrow flew through the air across the field and hit the furthest target just barely off the bullseye.

“Nice shot!” a voic...

An actress in our midst!, Ch15 - The culprit is you!

“This… no way, it can’t be…” the boy dressed in a Sherlock Holmes-esque outfit muttered to himself whilst raising back to his feet. “Combined with the note… and the bookmark… That m...

An actress in our midst!, Ch14 - It’s you again!

The high-powered laser beam disguised as an arrow closed in on her at blinding speeds. Luckily, she had already expected it. Just as the laser rocket arrow was about to send her flying like last ti...

Actress in our midst!, Ch13 - Excursion!

Jessica took a deep breath, taking in all the scents from the surroundings.

“Aaah, yes. The warmth of fresh summer air!” She chuckled.

Cody looked around to see charred plains, jagg...

An actress in our midst!, Ch12 - Conspiracy!

“Sooo… This is something I’ve been thinking about. What exactly is the demon king’s goal? His ultimate plan?” Cody asked.

Jessica looked up from the map and her notes and f...

An actress in our midst!, Ch11 - Ally!

A/N: Hey there everyone! I'm back from the dead! The surgery went well and now I'm back at home recovering and getting used to my new existence. Also! Finally new chapters! Yay! Hope you enjoy!...
