S.H.E.I.L.A. - Synthetic, Humanoid, Enlightened, Inquisitive, Living, Android *** I could barely hold my eyes open as we walked past most of the hotels. Shaking my head I knew that Sheila had picked us a secure location though I was hoping we got there soon. "I am still attuned to all military and non-military frequencies Doctor Gance. At the moment it ap...
Time Travel The General was a menacing looking man. He always stood out in a crowd. The general was one of those men that never left his job at home and he was who he was. One can always see that he was of military stuff. Something he loved to brag about. A man proud of his family lineage of military men, going as far back at the beginning of the 1900's....
Virta turned the relic this way and that in her slender fingers. She finally set it back in the box at her feet and looked up at the General. He was taking another drink of scotch. "You said I'll have a real Earth assignment, besides Athan. There's a girl in trouble?" The General nodded grimly. "Yes, and you know her well. It's Mandi." Virta felt as tho...
"Attempting to stabilize." His plane shook violently, and black smoke visibly seeped from the engine. "Jeramine, there is empty field beneath us. Touch down over there. I will cover you," Adel said.

As my family sat at the breakfast table, I took occasional glances at the latest edition of 'Snatch' magazine, that my twenty-one-year-old, older brother (by 2 years) Gary, who sat beside me was reading. More intent was I, upon what the next glossy page of Gary's favourite Girly periodical would reveal, that I had only been half-listening to what Dad, who s...
Memoirs of Kitty Siam – The Southern Front. It had been a month since the planning session and the meeting with the Prince. The weapons we had planned for were coming in to the castle much faster than we had anticipated. Since the fall of Na'Tal there had been a steady stream of refugees into Kreet and those that had the needed skills or were willing to lea...
Author's note For those who have asked for nit, this chapter actually has some sex in it :-) Have fun. Talemaster * Earth was looming large on the screen. We had come out of hyperspace several hours ago and were on our final approach. I am not given much to sentimentality, but seeing Earth so clearly before me always touches me deeply. I had not been h...
I was confined to my rooms for nearly two weeks after that, under a cloud for possibly having a part in the disappearance of Vimala, the former Rawalina. Colonel Agar had disappeared from my side, and everyone I asked about his absence just gave me a blank stare.
