He stepped back from the next big threat. Everywhere it stepped, the grass died and the land became barren. It took literal earth-shaking steps toward them.

"Fei?" His eyes were wide. No, it was not Fei Long, however, he wished it was... Fei was a bull with a white face.

"That's a cow." Aaron pointed out.

Artemis had not come to terms yet that it was just a "cow".

He narrowed his cat-like eyes at it, it had an eye on its forehead, a scaly, brown fur coat, and a scaly jade green snake as its tail. Maks growled and he lunged. The Fei throttled towards him, bellowing, it had fangs in place of molars and powerful limbs. Steam seeped out of its hooves and it whipped its tail like a lasso coming after them.

It charged and the blighty trail surpassed it and the blight spread under their feet. The earth quaked and the ground sunk, dust accumulated. They dropped into a hole.

Artemis held on to the edge, and Aaron crept up the hole dizzy. He was out of energy. She sought her old swiss arm

    They clapped hands and Maks left. He had no way of deciphering how or why Meg would go to such lengths for a cat. He brushed off that thought His eyes lit up when the blue panel materialized. He saw the numbers were running.You have been allotted the Giraffe! And the Kangaroo!The Giraffe is plausibly prey in the food chain, it can also pose to be a dangerous animal when threatened. The Kangaroo is not afraid of predators but is still very wary of humans and dingoes....Aaron Branch heard from his uncle in the wee hours of the morning. His hand clenched on the phone. His fingers tapped on the surface of Jason's reading desk"Hello, Aaron." His uncle Richard Dawkins said, he had a big afro, mixed skin color and blue eyes, gap teeth, and a soul patch.He wore a suit with white loafers and he crossed his legs. "Wassup Uncle." He said, his stomach did a backflip."Did you make any friends lately..." He said in a baritone voice."Not that I can think of...But I've got the target in

    Maks was retrieved from the boulders under the bridge. He shuddered at the massive burns on his face, his skin felt like warm adhesive. He couldn't feel anything except for the pain deep down. His arm was blistery. He could barely swallow. His head reeled from dizzy spells, up was down, down was up, and phantom pains on his missing finger. The room he was in didn't paint a very pretty picture, he spilled his guts. With a shaky breath, he assessed the room, his chest tightened, there were lemon-green walls, and the floors were covered in an ugly beige rug. A rickety old red nightstand was there too. "Help!" He glanced at the walls and the ceiling, he clutched his stomach with his good arm, he ground his teeth at the sudden pain mounting in his stomach, and he jolted up at the terror on every side. He broke out in a sweat, short of breath at the cage, as the dog seemed to take on a more fantastic appearance. It grew gills and shadowy skin. It approached him. The walls came up in flame

    The monsters were agitated He gazed at the cages rattling and the monsters who looked like rhinos with the head of worms segmented into four parts like flowers with sharp teeth. They rammed against the bars. "Run."Maks rolled away from centerstage and Aaron grinned. He turned to him wondering how he managed to pull it off. He rolled down the labyrinth, and the guards and awakeners glared at him. They threw all sorts of objects at him and they laughed hard to add to the cobblestone of his humiliation. He rolled slowly to the entrance and looked back. Hoping he didn't make a mistake, they all hated him for one thing he did or the other. He fought without thinking about the consequences and now he had to pay the price. He swallowed hard and he rolled out. The house was rickety and isolated, he had a photo of Artemis in his pocket. He looked left and right on the road. Where was he going to begin? The bounty hunters would be on the lookout, he knew people who would be eager to get hi

    Melvin marched down the stairs. Melvin couldn't even recognize him. He looked away and cried going back upstairs."Dad?..." He had a tagged as a murderer now. His entire family was a laughing stock all because of what he did. Elvis was missing, he didn't dare took them in the eye. What was he supposed to do? Jessica dragged her skipping rope into the house and his eyes lowered timidly. He deserved everything hurled his way. Her eyes rounded at Maks."Jess." She walked past him like he was a ghost, he reckoned that she was seven years old now, about the age of reasoning. The neighbours glared at him and sniffed. "He killed someone.""Shh, we'll let the police do the talking." They came to visit but he knew quite well that they wanted their fill of the gory details. They left half disappointed."You've been gone, for a whole year...""It's only been a month." He croaked. "A month? It took you this long to get in trouble. Do you think this is a joke? Huh? Tell me!"

    He wished he didn't pass over his roommates' important details."Artemis isn't 5 feet 5. She's 5 feet 7. Your facts are all doctored. You're wrong!"The jury gasped. The prosecutor sneered. "That is incredibly weird and immaterial.""She said so. And_" He wanted to break out of his chair. But he held back angrily."Mister Anderson, can you wait till it's your turn to get an appeal?" The judge said.He tempered. ... Maks was held in custody, he didn't know how long this trial would take, and he couldn't leave the house without people assailing him with insults and curses. It did not hurt as much as not being able to walk but it did make him anxious. The prosecutor stood before the judge once more. The jury muttered. "Your honor..." He began."Proceed.""We found physical evidence of the suspect's behavioral pattern." He glared at Maks like he had the key to his destiny at the moment and he was not getting it back. "He's a habitual smoker. He uses a good deal of narcotics and his

    For days he felt like a bullfrog who had air stuck in his throat. About to explode, he was sure the caretakers would have questions about his whereabouts. Flying felt relieving and at the same time stressful.... Artemis smirked when Hamface formed a trench with his foot. The tip of his tusk was as bloody as the look in his eyes."You.""Hehe." It only made him angrier. REEEK!He lowered himself with his horn in view. "Hamface, is a one-man train." He blurted with spit spurting out and he went wild. She stretched over him and he rammed into the other ugly trolls, they scattered like bowling pins. He rolled over missing his other tusk. Artemis chuckled and stomped on the cockroaches."Oops." Aaron Branch grinned. He hurried toward the box long forgotten and picked it up while the monsters flanked her in their pathetic attempt to put her down. His uncle would be proud of his exploits. Richard Dawkins snatched the hexagonal box and pulled out the Ziploc bag full of mystical dragon

    Two plants did not go together in the same pot, more or less ten. One person could not handle all that power, unless it was Halo, the person was the pot or the container. The seeds would only grow and tangle themselves up until they suffocated and withered. So it was only a question of how much he could handle it. Aaron lurched when Maks shot himself like a spear into his gut. They crashed into the floor. He gripped him by the neck, they struggled and his temperature ran hot.His skin felt overheated and he let go.Aaron felt him loosen up and he jabbed an elbow into his gut and threw him to the ground. Aaron laughed and stomped on him with his knee. He picked him up and pierced his fingers into his eyes. Maks screamed. He spat blood irritably. He put up a flaming hand and it went out. He tried again and it reduced. [ Error too many seeds. Your qi Level is too low. Initiating self-destruct. ] Maks tossed him away. He was caught in between trying to kill him, dodging his attack,s a

    Irma Barnsley returned home from Queen's College, after a hectic week of learning about the science of sound. She swore that she could still hear the sound of her organs pulsing from staying in the quiet room for so long. She wore two peacock feather earrings and a black headband over her hair. She wore a grey dress, black pants, and tall boots strapped by several bands. She visited the park and heard all these rumors about her being friends with a creep. Irma felt insecure. She looked around the large open field with people tossing a pigskin around. She would have to find public transport.Artemis lounged at a bench figuring out a mimosa plant, she recoiled when Irma took her by the shoulders by surprise. They squealed and hugged each other. "When'd you get back?" She said.Artemis bit her lip. Irma shook her head. "That was an awkward question on my part." It was too late to take any of that back. Artemis didn't tell Irma about Aaron. Or her ordeal at the bunker. She waved it off

    He shuddered. Those men didn't deserve to live, he clutched his pillow. The day after that was the time he started to realize that he could see dead people. These people were crooks, they sold him to a factory disguised as an orphanage home. Teagan's breathing was heavy at the women asking for his name. He had a hard time communicating, he didn't want to. They shaped him up by beating him. The worst he had was being covered with a sack if he mishbehaved and the tap running over his face until he gave in. He always had a hard time following routines. He lived with an abusive foster father named Randall Barton, his wife Alice and their adopted children, he trusted him to his word. He took care of him gradually until he started to get violent. He even employed the children to beat him up. He asked what was the point of adopting him. Unfortunately all he was good for was being a punching bag. The only good thing he learned was English. His imaginary friends translated and taught him to s

    Teagan looked anxious, he slouched walking through the gates. The workers grimaced at him and BlackJack picked up speed. He ran to the house and he paled when he met Ares. "Where have you been!?" Keisha said."I just went for a walk." Teagan said twirling his hand on his leash."I know you went to...You're not allowed to step outside. Running away was completely stupid." Keisha said aware now and he blushed at Harley. "Yeah, I know, I just needed some fresh air. I'm alive aren't I?" He barked defensively. He was acting weird. He bloomed walking away faster. He couldn't handle criticism. He marched upstairs and the room was as dirty as it was before. He was repulsed. "You didn't clean yet?" He said to Keisha who relaxed on the couch.She dropped her magazine. "I'm sorry I said all those mean things about you.""We're cool. Just as long as long as you don't keep any weapons. No more pranks, not more antics." She said. "Clean this up.""Where are all the ghost workers?""They're on a

    "Not that one, Chief. I was born in Nigeria, West Africa. The Igbos, a major ethnic group currently were looking for independence to become The Biafrans after the British colonialists united the tripod stands of the country, the east, north and the western region.The colonizers left eventually after the independence in 1960. There was a blockade and My father Festus Ebube Okoye who identified as a Biafran and my mother Catherine Nneoma Okoye starved along with the rest of our people. He was passionate about seperating from Nigeria. The Biafrans lost the war against the Nigerians ultimately and there was no secession. My father was wounded inside and out. We had to move here to save our hides. My father had a score with Ares to settle. They worked together in the past. He owed him his life and he wanted some kind of reward for aiding him."So Ares supports this kinds of stuff?""Yeah. He wanted him to "give him what rightfully belonged to him". His loyalty.

    "N_no no, I'll show you." Teagan tossed BlackJack's dented log at the glass doubledoors and it shattered to pieces.Irma's jaw dropped. "You broke it, is something wrong with you?" She glanced at a broom by the door perking up and moving in a sweeping motion to gather up the glass. Irma glanced at Teagan who looked shocked. His expression changed. "See?""As dumb as that demonstration was, it's brilliant.""Really?...I mean yes. I'm more genius than any of you give me credit for." He gazed at his fingernails."You can hear them.""Yes." He said smiling proudly. "Okay then, what's he saying?" She asked and he blushed. Maybe she thought the ghost standing there was just a coincidence.Irma winced at the inappropriate words. "@#$¥ *&?@@@####. Why are you helping you f#cking bitch?""Okay, that's enough." She said alarmed. "It's a kid named Oscar...he's 19.

    Over the days, Teagan moved around the house, he cursed at the workers and vandalized things, Ares didn't show the slightest interest or whether to kick him out. He was perplexed. Harley, Irma and Keisha were in their final year and they were going to college. And parties. He was left home alone with BlackJack whom he was afraid of. BlackJack was trying to approach him and he ducked throwing pillows at him.BlackJack grabbed a pillow chasing after him. He ran away past the halls and cried out when BlackJack placed his paw on his chest. "Stop." Ares said to him and he vanished. Teagan gazed at him through glassy eyes. Ares vanished too.... Ares was not even giving Irma a hard time as Keisha claimed to. He didn't trust her to her words anyway. He taught her to kick box and she was getting tired of doing the same moves all the time. She meandered around a sandbag punching and kicking.Teagan watched them from a boulder with binoculars as she lunged backwards.Irma tried the s

    Teagan was afraid that she would shred them to pieces. Worst of all, Ares was coming home to meet him. He didn't like the looks of him. His aura made him feel things and see things he didn't want to see, yet he was easily drawn to the past, he relived it everyday in his head. That was why he wanted to stay as far away from Ares as possible.He lived with assassins too. Irma arrived with Harley in the house of Ares. Irma ducked at the box drifting over her head. "What are those?""Ghost workers, they agreed to work for Ares in death." "Until after death you mean?""They won't be leaving anytime soon, they can keep working for him if they want.""Oh my god. What if some of them try to kill him or you?""They won't. They have a contract." Harley said.Irma shook her head as they explored the house. "So this is where you live?" "Yes and No, I live with my dad, Eric. I just come here for visits.""So how is he?"Harley turned sad, he suffered 10 years of tragedy but the tragedy wasn't

    "Will you come lie next to me?" He said.He groaned she laid back too hard. "Scooch." She could hear the fluids in his lungs while he was breathing. The place was so quiet. She would rather be anywhere else talking to a person than being her with her thoughts, but he was sick."I can feel the gurgling too, that's disgusting and don't even try to kiss me with that virus." She was content.He was feeling feverish and tried to make conversation. "My head hurts...""Mmm.""I'm sure letting you stay in bed with me is probably against hospital policy.""You're such a bad boy." She said sarcastically.They were together now and she did not want to infringe on their pact. "Can I use my phone?""That's fine, it gets boring in the hospital anyway." He said fatigued and he had a sense of Deja vu. "Please don't take pictures of me like this, I look sick."She typed. "It's fine. I just need it for my secret album. What do you think about #Marley?" She flooded the space with many heart emojis."Tha

    "You need to stop playing games.""Really, you wanna talk game? You were trying to make me jealous with Irma." His eyebrows rose. "I wasn't.""What was that look. Really? When we were at that night club, you were staring at her. Like really staring."Irma exhaled. "Oh my god, you guys." She muttered rolling her eyes. "Yeah because we had a duet. I was nervous and I tend to look at people dead in the eye when that happens_Maybe I was jealous when you started feeding Dom orange slices.""Only because he was making rude advances. I had to protect myself.""You left me on the street after date night.""Yeah, you were having car trouble and I was trying to be friendly and to save money." She whispered. "You could have just said you were angry instead of shutting me out.""Oh." He said, he was unreasonable when it came to love and the reason why he strangely felt short was because she was still on heels. "I was wrong to have made you think that Dom and I could actually be a thing. But you

Alberto spat on the floor. "Now, what is going on? You get off him.""Sorry, Tio, he locked Horacio up again and now he's harra_""What's going on?" Dom rose up. "She's been spending all my money on this useless son of a bitch." He yelled at Harley. "You won't even let me touch you!"Harley's eyes glistened at the name-calling. "Last time I checked, we were friends, not lovers."They were laughing at Dom. He just ratted himself out. She played him for a fool now."I do not care.
