It was winter. It was wartime. It was snowing. A fresh layer of downy whiteness was beginning to cover the broken bodies in the clearing, the congealing blood that lay like pools of garnet across the ice.

It was a typical dog day of summer, the temperature was hovering around 90, the humidity was 100%, and I had been wearing a helmet and shoulder pads for the past hour and a half. We had just finished some conditioning drills and coach had sent us to get some water. As we were crowded around the water taps drinking our fill and cooling off Ben Schenck loudly...
Chapter One: January 18th, 1964 The sky over the hills held the color of amber rose as Vixen looked out the front window of her apartment. She placed a hand on her hip, leaning her side into the wall as she assessed the towering structures stretching up high across from her building. As her finger set on her lip, she traced around it, pondering the sullen...
