Slumber Five
Bijou didn't need to be psychic to understand that she was bad news. She didn't look friendly, nor did she make an attempt to be. And the way Eleanor spoke to her suggested that she wasn't interested in friends. Still, Bijou tried to be polite and introduced herself. The girl nodded her head slightly as if she wasn't really listening. Then she walked over to her side of the room and plopped down on her bed. She said,"I know you're probably not used to being in a place like this. And were probably hoping to make friends with me."

Slumber Nine
Getting ahold of Bijou's Aunts wasn't as hard as he thought. Telling them everything that happened on the other hand proved to be. Noctifer's connection wasn't as strong as he hoped. And his magic was barely keeping the line open. As they stood around his telecom screen. It flickered now and then as he restarted the link. Once Afua's face filled the screen again, Noctifer gave a sigh of relief. In a relieved tone, he said,"My apologies, Afua. Our signal isn't the best out here. I'm sorry that keeps happening."

Slumber Four
As they neared the city, Bijou started to feel anxious. This place was much bigger than she imagined it would be. And her stomach started twisting in knots all over again. There was no way she'd be able to wander the city. Not even if she wanted to, she'd get lost much too easily. And her hands twisted her shirt as she looked at Onyx. He seemed to be monitoring her reaction and thinking of how to react. Of his own accord, he grabbed her right hand gently and started rubbing it soothingly. In a calm voice, he said,"You'll be alright, Bijou. I promise that I'll be with you all the way."

Slumber Three
The morning of the move to the school was bright, cheery, and warm. It seemed absolutely wonderful. Yet it couldn't lift Bijou's spirits. This wasn't fair. All she did was make friends with someone. How in the world did that warrant her being tossed into some boarding school? It wasn't like she was going out of her way to do something dangerous. All of this didn't seem fair to her. And she had no choice but to go through with it.

Slumber Two
And so, the pair met in secret for a few weeks. Onyx keeping Bijou's Aunts from finding out. It was hard to keep them from seeing what happened sometimes. Especially when Bijou couldn't be subtle to save her life. Then again, she never really learned to be. But despite this, they managed to see each other. Bijou and Tamifa. Both exploring the forest for things to scavenge. Things to just toy with and possibly sell in town, in disguise of course. After all, they didn't want people to find out about what they were up to. And so far, it worked out nicely.

Slumber One
In a large home, deep in the woods there lives three women and one young child. The women were strong practitioners of magic. The oldest and wisest, Afua, was in charge of the girl's education. The second oldest and most kind, Sethunya, was in charge of her manners and grace. The youngest and weakest of them, Zina, was entrusted to teach her independence. And they had. Each of them had kept her close to the home they raised her in. And each of them raising her lovingly like any aunts would. Each warning her to be absolutely careful when walking the woods. And to keep her companion droid close as possible. To promise not to go off the path that they agreed upon. And she agreed.

The Room. Top Story - October 2024.
There was only one rule: don’t open the door. A rule that was placed on a sticker next to it. My heart skipped as I tried to figure out how I got there. And how I was going to get out of this room. All that was in it was me. A small twin sized mattress that was laying on the floor. A dresser that had none of its drawers on it.

Interview of Howard Barlow two
Walking out of the dressing room that he was provided, Howard took a deep breath. Thinking over the question of Winnie’s suit. Why would anyone say that it hadn’t been seen in so many years? It was the first thing that you saw when you came into the restaurant. The only thing he had to change about Silvy’s appearance was her head. After the incident it was unusable. Nor would he want to use it even if it wasn’t. The thing held too many memories of his wife, and he couldn’t bring himself to reuse it.
