Fading Light
From what I was told, it happened on a chill, autumn evening; right when the tip of the sun vanished below the horizon. I can still remember the picturesque sunset: the remaining rays painted the edge of the sky a gentle pink, until the darkness of night slyly consumed the pretty color into a menacing purple-gray. I tried shriveling in my toddler seat, but no matter how low I got, the darkening atmosphere still watched me. “Daddy, it’s getting dark out. Can I have your phone to make it brighter?” My sister spoke out in the growing darkness.

~*Follow The Stars Home.~*
Rick stayed comfortably still as he observed the many twinkling stars that dressed the clear night skies within their diamond-encrusted like power that allowed for many watchers to survey the most tremendous beauty as the wind slightly picked his blonde hair up breathing out a sigh of relief. Night-time had come in the forest once his assignment was completed and had decided to come here to do some self-meditation instead of hanging out with the rest of the boys.

~*Woman Of The Night~*
Night came rather quickly within the city of New York as the dozens of lights had soon sprung to life on the many skyscrapers that illuminated in all of its extraordinary yet dazzling glory. Due to the weather being chilly, seeing that it was the month of October, people were seen walking the streets or coming out of taxi cabs wearing their long trench coats and fall jackets to keep them warm and happy as they either said goodbye to the drivers or were just stepping down off of the city busses getting ready to head home to their apartments to gear back up for another busy workday that would be waiting for them by the morning. Many places were already closing up shop getting out the keys to lock up their owned establishments and some were taking their dogs out for their evening walks to get their last batch of exercise.

War
The message was stinging in its clarity. My antennae reverberated with my...our charge. There was a repository of food waiting behind the enemy line. We were to break through the line and return to the colony with supplies. I had been waiting a long time to be so nobly tasked. The others twitched with excitement as we waited for the dawn. I could not help but join in with my own nervous pacing.

Entering the Dreamscape
The sign out front read “Gypsy Dreams. Now Open!” Based on the tapestries hanging in the windows and the smell of patchouli permeating from the open door, this was one of those new age places. Against my better judgement I decided to enter and take a look around.
