Serena and Connor come back upstairs and he boots up Eddie’s tablet just as he and Claire come downstairs together. “I’ll be tech since we’re here now. Eddie’s a better fighter than I am.” Serena grips his shoulder as he takes a seat, “Coms.” He shoves the two containers towards everyone. Eliza grabs just the magical one, tucking it behind the ear that doesn’t have her normal com in, using the wire to hold it in place. She moves her head a bit then nods. “Okay, Connor’s home base. When Merlin returns we might move you to the basement for safety.” He nods, “Claire, you good?” She nods, and cracks her knuckles.

Jason, on the other hand glowed with robust blue-green light that projected a good distance from his body. It was mesmerizing. The sound of my name being repeated brought me back to reality. “Esmerelda, my dear,” Edward said. “Are you alright?”

"Shane, I need you to promise to kee my secret." "I'll take it to the grave, my lady." "Your crew?" "If they speak a word, they'll die." "Shane?" "Look, I'm sure our paths will cross agian." She went to say something else when Marvin walke throught the door. "Pardon me, captain, but it appears that The Emerald took much more significant damage than we did."

Most of the people you see on the street were locals, with a few tourists here for skiing. No traffic jams, no loud honking, just a calm, simple life. But this time, everything was different.

Emerald reached out to stop him, her expression calm and resolute. “Alaric, that’s enough.” Their eyes locked. His dark pupils reflected her, his expression serious and intense, creating an inexplicable tension between them. Emerald recalled what Iris had told her. To most people, Emerald seemed harmless and easygoing, but in reality, she was always cautious—always building walls around herself, keeping others at a distance. The tears she shed on that rainy night were one of the few moments she let her true emotions show. It was as if she had built a wall of ice around herself, turning her defenses into sharp spikes that hurt her from within.

It was as if a great weight had been lifted from his heart and the relief so overwhelmed him, that his knees went weak “Thank you!” He breathed in relief, “Thank you so much, Miss Lana.” “Where did you say your family was stationed?” Lana asked, intending to get things out of the way immediately. “They are all the way over at Emerald City.” Director Evans answered, quickly providing the answers that was needed.

I need to make a plan. What do I do now Emerald? I reach out to her. She whimpers. She’s been pretty sulky ever since I rejected Wesley.
