"Interesting..."Maks nodded. "I'll let myself out." He said and hurried down the stone steps of the wooden platform with a fireplace. It got cold at night around Med Park. Rex gave him a grim sneer. He wasn't waiting around for Meg to show up. He hurried down the lane and he paused at her stepping down from a taxi. He raised his hands. Artemis stumbled out and stretched her arms. "Did you miss me?" She hugged him and leaned her head on his shoulder. "What's going on with you?" He said to her and he stood face to face with McCormick, his eyes flashed, and he roared and punched him. Maks backed away from the fight. He fumed throwing Jeremy off his balance with a violent judo flip. He landed on the floor and arched his back."Hey!"Meg hurried down the field and saw him standing over Jeremy with his foot on his throat. He stepped down. Jeremy was shell-shocked and Artemis looked like she could use a pair of sunglasses by now. Jeremy looked furious. He was taller and older by 3 yea
Valentina di Romano sighed, she felt a tightness in her chest, no it wasn't a stroke, it felt like something wrong was going to go wrong at any moment. She lived in a bubble for so long that it seemed inevitable that she would face another squabble. She returned to the counter while Raymond propped his hand on his chin, running his finger on a nickel. He was just sixteen years old. He did not believe in the ancient witch's ideals, she just happened to be an old lady who knew her chemistry very well. "And remember, do not give the pink boxes out for sale. They're special." Ray gave Valentina his best smile yet. "Okay, Nonna. I won't." He allowed himself a piece of chocolate from the blue box and she smacked his hand with a folded-up magazine. ... Francis saw the fraternity brothers prancing by the fraternity house, he was afraid that they might dump a bucket of ice cubes into his pants or make him drink from a barrel of beer upside down, or make him run through the field nake
Valentina made an effort to escape. Mister Fox crowed, he caught the spell book in his claws and flew off. Valentina cried out. Artemis caught the entire crowd in her hands. Maks gripped Ray by the end of his shirt. He struggled. "Lemme go!" He was already on the brink of tears. A snot bubble blew out from his nostril."It's best you come up with a cure." Maks reckoned it was just dumb luck that the composite did not completely work its magic. Raymond squealed when he held on to him and swept him off the floor.He avoided her hand and the people rolled off her other hand like logs of wood. A pink ambiance rotated around on her pupils and she turned on Maks. She gripped him, crushing his ribcage. Valentina gazed at Artemis, she had some of the composites on her. She supposed she could compel her to fight back. While she made her escape. Ray joined her."This doesn't even make any sense." Maks perched on a tree and avoided her hands. Artemis tried to pluck him out. "For Valentina.
He flew home. What she said hurt him so much, it was very sad that she thought no one else looked after her and on the other hand, he wanted to tell her that she was doing fine_of course, thanks to his selective muteness, he couldn't say anything. The trees looked dotted on the desert ground and patches of silver clouds encompassed the ant-sized houses. He had to stay above the clouds. He wondered why he was not getting immediate feedback back from his system about his position in the food chain (besides being human as Meg put it.) Besides that, he preferred being human to anything else, maybe a spider. Spiders were fun except for the murderous urge to eat a bug. Once, he tried to use his web to swing like a human being but the web just faltered under the breeze. Sometimes, the system required a lot of experimentation and he tried different animal fighting styles to develop his fighting style, it took a lot of focus and mental work to get the job done, and that was why he was able to

He inhaled and exhaled when his dad knocked. "Maks! Maksim Demetrius Anderson, you step outside, right now!" He banged on the door. "Open up!""Please, don't say that name out loud.""I have a spare key...I'm coming in on the count of three,_ one...two...three..." Maks stayed back ruddy-nosed and he held on to the door handle and clenched his hand on it. At this point, he was tone-deaf, there was no way chance in hell that he was going to tell his father that he was busy fighting and trying to keep them safe. The worst part of all was that the men who were trying to kill him now were masked [ Except the wolf but what did it matter? ]and he was NOT masked, so he could not trust anyone. His dad would take him seriously enough to ask him to see a therapist or laugh so hard that he would not dare talk about anything critical again. The world was full of bologna, that was what he would say.Knock* knock* knock* He knocked relentlessly. "Did I say flesh wound? I meant I have a fresh loop
He thought the reveal to Jess would be too dangerous. It was just as bad as keeping the Zaipei Dou in his room with her around. The Lees would never agree to that and now they were gone because Aaron gobbled them up."I drew a picture." She showed him the picture of them with their hands merged in big dots. "I can never get the hands right or the ears." "Why is my head bigger than my body?"She shrugged. "Because you have a big head.""That's not true." He said and his head sank. He was conscious of his appearance to an extent."What's this about a changeling? Do you still smoke, I'm telling dad_" "Shut the hell up." "For someone who's training to be a doctor, you're not very compassionate." She said defensively. Maks grinned and barred his teeth like a wolf. "I'll be leaving by tomorrow.""Good for you." She pattered up the stairs. Her hair bounced behind her.He rubbed his eyes. "East? Come 'ere, girl." He patted his knees.Meow. East crawled out from under the chair toward h
"You haven't paid me for all those scrapes I've gotten you out of Rex, my advice, is don't bite the hand that fed you." He patted Rex's cheek. Rex felt like he was trying to swallow a spoonful of sand and wearing an itchy sweater at the same time. He didn't want to get on his benefactor's son's bad side either. But he didn't want to see Horacio getting hurt every time he went near Dominic. "Are you coming?" Horacio said....Maks stuffed his bag with clothes and toiletries. He hung his backpack and his system glitched. "This time you really came prepared." He said. The room was big, there was a new table at the center and Melvin was doing a quality check on the new speakers and a VR Game. Jessica was excited and danced on her tip-toes. "I love you!""Me too." She hugged him and he blushed.[ Kill Cancer ] [ Right now? ] He was ruminating about if that was just a hoax.[ Do you accept this quest?] He tapped the answer and moved on, he was waiting for a bus because his dad took
