  • Believe It or Not – Part Three

    Ken Everything was green. What the hell…? Daisuke let his eyes slide open a little further, feeling confused and still half asleep. Green? His dorm room had blue wallpaper, didn’t it? He shut his eyes, not really wanting to think about it. It was so comfortable… But, once started, his mind wouldn’t stop. Ireland… I’m…

  • Believe It or Not – Part Two

    Oran, Co Roscommon Daisuke was barely drifting awake, feeling refreshed and, at the same time, very drowsy. There was a strange, familiar sort of surface beneath him that felt fresh and cool under his skin, and sounds like birds chirping came to his ears – they were faint, as if coming from some distance away.…

  • Believe It or Not – Part One

    Tara “Ireland?” Daisuke looked at the plane tickets in his sister’s hand, then back up at her face again, feeling totally bemused. “Why there?” “Why not?” Jun shrugged. “It’s a nice enough place for a vacation… And you can’t really object about the location, Dai, since I’m the one who’s paying for it!” That was…

  • Surface Calm – Part Two

    “We’re about to have visitors,” Tai said as we reached the campsite. “Be careful what you tell them.” “Vistors?” I said, surprised enough to abandon my brooding thoughts momentarily. “The magic Mimi sensed belonged to another group. We’re not sure what they want yet. Apparently this is a trip to establish ‘friendship’ but Masaki’s not…

  • 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…
