Night of the Hunt 4
Sinking slowly below the horizon, the setting sun soaked the world in honeyed light. Thick and tall, but young, trees thrust up from the earth, spreading its darkening fingers into the fading colours filling the sky. Some of the brighter celestial...
The Bargain - 1
## Wednesday ### 4:00 pm Wiping the sweat off of his ever-increasing forehead, Aiden glanced around the carriage, pudgy fingers fumbling as they returned his boarding pass to his wallet. He felt exhausted; the meeting had overrun, meaning he'd had to...
Forest Vengeance
Oakshaft scowled. He'd warned the villagers they were chopping down too many trees. His whole life, and those of countless of his generations, had been spent within this forest. Nobody alive knew it better. Eventually, it was going to cut too deep, and...
Left Right Out
Left Right Out Tony scratched at the prickly, coarse hairs bristling out from what had been a cleanly-shaved head this morning, eagerly absorbing the blistering sun's heat. His temples ached from both the sharp nubs of hard nail that had pushed out...
Sneak Thief
Sneak Thief Creak! The swollen wood in the window frame complained while Jack's crowbar wrenched it open. Nearby fireworks continued to explode nearby, muffling the noise. "Besides," Jack thought, "the old bitch is deaf," as he squeezed through the...

The Experiment 1
Squinting to keep the sea's afternoon shine from his eyes while he looked through the chain link fence, Steve's first impression of the professor's lighthouse was that it looked like a big, white erect cock. The building itself was certainly...

The Bargain - 5
## Friday ### 12:45 pm Cocks. Aiden mindlessly tapped a pen on the notebook by his desk. He hadn't eaten all day, had barely slept, but none of that seemed to matter. He couldn't concentrate, but his physical and mental exhaustion weren't the main...
Potions 4 - Whoops
In the prologue, our ten adventurers discovered a strange vial inscribed in an ancient language. In Part I, Connor the barbarian sampled it, finding its effects made him an even more bullish fighter than before. In Part II, Stefan the fighter drinks...
Alakazam 4 - Trick or Treat
Alakazam - Trick or Treat Aside from the red stripe cutting across the paintwork of Hank's Chevrolet Chevelle, the car was as black as a panther. Its engine suitably growled at the traffic hobbling its smooth journey, as though the beast had become...
Stable Job
# Week 1 Gabriel's olive skin was drenched with sweat, and he hoped he didn't smell too much like horse shit. Mucking the stalls was always the worst part of the job: he'd learned that very quickly, after having been at it for only a week. Still,...
