Walking through a stark corridor in the sub-levels of the raft, three men walked down the hallway of the supermax containment center; one devoted to containing the most dangerous of prisoners SHIELD had ever found and contained. Unlike other facilities, THIS one was designed for each specific inmate they kept watchful eye on. Almost every corridor was met wi...
This chapter doesn't have much focus on our main character. Mostly because nothing special is happening him right now, so instead there's a lot of third person perspectives of other characters. After writing in first person for so long that feels wrong, but it's the only way I'll be able to go on in the situation I've put myself in. Also, it's been an unusua...
Marquise Smith 1500 Guyenne, France, began the time where war was raging between Lycans and werewolves. You might ask, aren't they both the same? No, they're not. Two entirely different species. While werewolves are what people portray in urban legends, Lycans are much more muscular than average werewolves are. With enhanced durability, reflexes, coordinati...

I read the words etched into the bottom of the screen as the news flash lit up my small apartment, "Possible Deadly Outbreak Moving Along Eastern Seaboard". If it was anything serious the internet would have the best information; I never trusted these news networks. I got up to put my half-eaten bowl of rice in the fridge and smiled at Daisy, my bright blue...
Magic isn't easy folks, let no one tell you otherwise. I stand over the grave of one Parvati Gagandeep, patiently waiting for her to rise. The gal isn't making it easy for me. I sit on a tombstone right across from her modest grave, chowing down on some Mexican food. It's a really cold night out here in the Montreal Road sector of Ottawa, Ontario. Just in ca...
Thanks Seb Greenbath for useful comments and editing ---------------------------------------- Sex in times of Cholera Ann stormed into the residence and collapsed on the wicker chair. "Fuck..." she exhaled, "I'm exhausted." Jerome looked up from his laptop. The office was already close but he still had work to complete. She squeezed her palms into her e...
Author's Note: Suffering continues the story of Shea, who was introduced in Ch. 03 of the Deus Ex Machina chain. ~~~ "You're late!" Shea ducked reflexively when the accusation was hurled her way, but it didn't seem to be one of those days. James was simply standing there, both hands on the doorframe, waiting for her explanation while blocking her way into...
[September, 2021] I checked the schedule for the fifth time in an hour. Call me nervous, I guess. After renewed outbreaks of coronavirus in the fall of 2020 and then in January, Draconian measures had been put in place by the new administration. But they had worked. Not a single new case of coronavirus had been reported in the entire country in the previous...
Kaleb started to explain something to me. "I told you about the brazen vampiric rules!" he started seriously. "Yes!" I replied tense and nervous at the same time as he stroked my breastbone. "You won't get blood until you are initiated by the three elders!" "And what does that mean?" I asked timorous because it reminded me of college rituals. "They will...
