TakaraYuuki

    Where I didn’t believe in jumping to conclusions, Avangelene’s note was enough to convince me that I wouldn’t like what I would find when I got back to the Guild. I was even sure her being absent from the place was on purpose. So, I decided I was always better safe than sorry, and went to retrieve my most prized swords from upstairs.    The katanas had come into my possession during the brief years I had been running amok in Japan. I liked to call them Scylla and Charybdis, after the legend, since we have this silly tradition about naming our weapons. The two evils, one to kill Vampires, one for Shifters…for when

CELESTE: This City, It hides a darkness That no-one Cares to know. Don’t acknowledge, Don’t think of it, Just keep walking, Don’t look below. All the clockworks They can’t see you, But the shadows Wander still. There is something, The wind is changing, But I’m not sure For good or ill…. In this City, The dimmest gaslight Is too few Too far between. And the moonlight Watches over me, But what good is that If I am caught? This City! Something about it Drive me insane In the dark. And the stupid And oblivious Might have been right After all… This City, It far too dangerous This City, Should not be ou

Part 3, The Curious Little Affair    I fell embarrassingly, face planted the ground and ate a good mouthful of grass I hadn’t quite wanted to eat. Jez obviously had a similar experience about two feet away, because she muttered “bastard” and began to spit.    “Now that’s hardly ladylike, Miss Jezabelle.” Said a familiar voice whose owner I really wanted to hurt at that moment.    “BASTARD.” Jez shouted even louder, “Don’t Miss Jezabelle me!”    “I do believe they’ve fallen on their heads.” Said another voice, smaller and squeaky, “Don’t you wor

Chapter 6 Down the Rabbit Hole Goes Alice    It just made perfect sense, as crazy as it seemed. But hey, you didn't get much crazier so I was willing to take my chances. The question was, how would Bree take it if I was right? I mean, even if I wasn't I'd still have to tell her. We didn't keep secrets this huge.    Azure Saga was closest to her sister, Fiona Saga. Miranda Tempest was closest to her almost sister, Bree Carter. And after the conversation we'd had the previous weekend, and then the phone conversation earlier, there was far too much evidence to eliminate the possibility yet. Actually, thinking about it, the idea was very pro

Chapter 1    I am not a superhero.    At least…I’m not like the superheroes I read about in comic books as a kid. I’m not a moral warrior like Batman, or a god on earth like Thor. I’m not super strong or bad ass by nature with cool powers…what I do have however, is a messed up life, so I guess I’m half way there.    I started writing all this down thinking I needed, like any good comic hero, an origin story…but that’s when I realised; I’m not a hero, I’m a lab rat. This isn’t a comic, it’s brutal, pain-in-the-ass reality.  Though to be honest, I think I prefer it that
