Akaisha looked at the trifling man next to her and could only swallow. The longer she stood next to him, the more he disgusted her. Bile welled in her throat. Burning as it sat there begging to come out. She swallowed it down, repeatedly. How could he do something like this? Create something so mix mashed. Why would he do something like this? Experimenting on a child is one thing. Gruesome and horrific alone, but an extinct animals was something only a madman would conjure. Could conjure. Her eyes narrowed into slits. She just stood there. What could she really do? Did she actually want to help him capture an animal that shouldn’t exist? Yet, she had given her word and her word was just as good as shackles. Professor Mozart did teach her that “Your word is your bond. If you agree to do something, then you should keep your word so you didn’t come across as a liar.” Akaisha could only sigh softly. That thought rolled around her brain. She hated it. Better to be a liar than to help this

She had gotten the car up to 55 miles per hour when she saw it. A faint yellow glow in the distance. There was a green outline to it. An unnatural color. It was near where they had escaped from. The closer she got, the more she could see it was a fire. Did that man actually start a fire in his lab to draw attention to himself? No, he wouldn’t allow anyone to know of his evil deeds. He started the fire to lure her out into the opening. She was going to turn the car around to head away from the burgeoning commotion and thought about it quickly, but it was too late. Fire copters were there on the scene. She could see in the distance blue and red lights approaching them fast. It was the police. Accompanying the fire copters. Akaisha knew they needed to get off of the road and fast before they were stopped. It didn’t seem as if they had closed off the roads, so she worked her brain harder to speed through the area. They couldn’t be stopped not here or now. Soon as she passed by the area, s

He looked around the diner to see a few familiar faces and some not-familiar faces. He knew exactly which restaurant the woman meant when she asked for the meeting. This was a diner he frequented regularly. He looked over at the booths to see someone he was indeed looking for, Akaisha Morningstar. Everyone else that was in Kara-Mae was regulars. They waved at him as he came in. Akaisha, she wasn’t what he was expecting. Her long locks rested against her shoulders. Her eyes were a vibrant violet, they weren’t normal eyes. It was a sign of being genetically altered. They had come across several humans with different colored eyes, all have been enhanced, but none could tell what happened to them. He sauntered over to her table, stopping inches away from the table. “So, you’re the person who I am looking for. The one who saved those patrons in the restaurant? And extremely dangerous.” He took a seat opposite her. “You certainly don’t look like it. Dangerous, that is. Sergeant Acheki.” He h

Akaisha had been checking out places when she felt it had been long enough for the Sergeant to have gotten some information. For a man of his caliber, he should be able to get whatever he wanted. Her memory flitted back to the way his hands seemed to flare with warmth. Digging her nails into her skin, she came back to the present. She had just gotten to the last listing when it seemed it was perfect. perfectly run down, that is. The outside was dreary. There was a hole on top of the roof. They had bashed the windows out and boarded them up. Wind whistle inside through the cracks. Mice scattered across the floor. Their tiny pitter-patter came as a symphony to her ears. She looked at it and smiled. This was perfect. There would be no reason for the council to veto any remodeling plans. She bought the building before they demolished it. Lucky for her, it was everything she wanted and more. Pulling up the listing, she contacted the realtor. “Hello, what a day to live in real estate. Wher

She was ready to teleport to the library but wasn’t sure if she should drive. Police were looking forAkaisha was ready to teleport to the library but wasn’t sure if, instead, she should drive. Police were still looking for her vehicle, and her. So, driving her car was out of the question. It shouldn’t have been a thought in her mind, not until they revoked the warrant. There was another way to get there. Misty looked at her as if he knew. “Long as you ride close to my back, you won’t be seen.”Akaisha kissed the top of his head. If animals could blush, she was sure she had seen a tinge of pink pepper in his feathers. “You are a smart boy; we just have to be incredibly careful. I’m a wanted woman and you shouldn’t exist.” She shrugged her shoulders matter-of-factly. “This combination…” she pointed between them. “… is a recipe for disaster. If anything happens, you go invisible and come back here. I’ll leave the bedroom window open.”“I’ll try to do as you say.”She went to the back bed
