  • Surface Calm – Part One

    The trees whispered above me, leaves ruffled by the summer breeze. I shut my eyes smiling, enjoying the play of the wind on my face. Times like this it was hard to imagine that I’d once been, if not content underground, at least accepting of my life there. Times like this . . . it…

  • Ground Level – Part Eight

    TAICHI “No.” “But Taichi—” “No.” “But just think of the possibilities—” “Izzy, I said no.” “I fear you’re being too hasty in your judgement of the situation. After all—” “They’ve got guns, Koushiro. Guns. No.” Our red headed technology expert sighs. “I still think the potential usefulness of the vehicles outweighs the danger—” “And I…

  • Ground Level – Part Seven

    TAICHI “Here,” I push the door open and pull Yamato in after me. “Sora will never think of looking for us in here.” Yamato gives our surroundings a rather suspicious look but he’s not going to argue with me. Not given how hard it is for us to get any privacy at all. I mean,…

  • Ground Level – Part Six

    TAICHI Taichi, this is the last time I’m going to say this—stay still.” Sora’s getting that tone again. Last time I heard her use it, someone wound up with a broken arm. It wasn’t Sora. I collapse back on to my bed pouting. “This is a waste of time. I should be taking care of…

  • Ground Level – Part Five

    TAICHI I watch with satisfaction the thrashing trees beneath us. “Nice work, Izzy. That’s stopped them.” “Unfortunately, only temporarily,” he answers, ever pragmatic. “And that was the last of the spray.” I frown. We’re running out of weapons . . . “But they don’t know that,” Iori says suddenly, frowning at the plants. “I don’t…

  • Ground Level – Part Four

    TAICHI “They’re getting closer.” “I know, Iori, I know.” We’re standing on the wall again, watching this newest threat–trees, for crying out loud. Trees that are slowly creeping up on us at the rate of 15 millimetres an hour. If it wasn’t for the fact that we couldn’t move because of Jun’s condition, this would…

  • Ground Level – Part Three

    TAICHI “Please Tai?” “No.” “Please Tai?” “No.” “Pretty please?” “Mimi!” She blinked brown eyes prettily at me. “What?” “I am not going to say yes, just because you keep asking,” I folded my arms. “No means no.” “But Tai,” she protested. “It’s not like it will take that long. And you’re not doing anything anyway.”…

  • Ground Level – Part Two

    TAICHI “Dai’s done something stupid, hasn’t he.” “Huh?” I blink. To be honest, I’d thought Jun was asleep. Sora had advised rest and given her a bit of that herb mixture that she and Izzy had spent ages researching, to help her sleep. She’d been so quiet. However, she’s awake now. And waiting for an…

  • Ground Level – Part One

    * * TAICHI * * The forest is quiet. That’s your first clue. Even on the surface, even given that most of the earth’s living creatures got wiped out within weeks of it happening–things should never be this quiet. “I think this is where I found it,” Jun says. I jump–I’d completely forgotten she was…

  • DragonRider – Part Four

    ** DAISUKE ** // But you like the new DragonRider. // Vrekk flew at top speed, not bothering to try and keep his fierce excitement from me. We’d been doing tricks, too, flipping upside-down, rolling, twisting, turning really fast… It was great! // Humans don’t always mate for life, do they? So just explain it,…
