I say as I race to catch up to Brooke. “Bye, Mom! We’ll be back soon!” Cyrene says. “Don’t go too far, Iniko. You’re getting close to your first shift,” she calls out. “We’re just going to the mountain,” I call back. “Go, Kiko, go!” Cyrene says, encouraging me to catch up to Brooke. I love that Cyrene is nine years old and still calls me Kiko. She’s the only one who does. It’s just like she still calls Cal Calgon. No one cares to correct her because she’s Cyrene.

Kōjin (laughing so hard the volcano rumbles): “Welcome to the family, Himuari-Nakamura. Weird is the baseline.” He snaps his fingers and a table appears (low kotatsu, steaming bowls of kitsune udon the size of bathtubs, sake that tastes like sunrise). We eat under a sky that’s half open volcano, half Kyoto twilight. I steal his chopsticks just to watch him pout. Seras: “So… do I call you Dad? Kōjin-sama? Old man who smells like charcoal?” Kōjin (soft, ancient eyes warm): “You call me whatever feels like home.

The air was electric with energy, filled with the sound of their excited barks and playful growls, as the grassy field became their canvas for youthful antics. My pup, Alma, with her sleek, dark coat that seemed to shimmer in the light, bounded joyfully across the meadow. Her vibrant spirit matched that of Matt’s pup, Sionavar—Sion for short—whose striking silver fur caught the sunlight like a beacon. Alice’s pup, Kerian, was undeniably mischievous, with sparkling green eyes and a quick, darting movement that always kept him a step ahead. Kim’s pup ZaZu, adorned with unique patches of gray and black, gilded gracefully through the grass, while Cam’s pup Rema, the largest of the group, exuded

He was guilt as time pas by when he thought that he just looked at his system with disgust after his system had come back but it was not his usual style to apologize so he just opened his lips to say, almost expressionless while string at system ‘eye’ one eye back. “Welcome back” Gabriel said I those hoarse and deep voice. System ‘Eye’ wanted to cry immediately after hearing that but still held himself back with great difficulty and great power to hold on the tears that was about to come down once again. Cuzo, Kuro and clone who was fed up unexpectedly by the two ability user and AI affection towards each other: …. Cuzo: Where am i? Who am I? What am I doing here again? Kuro: I need my big b

Maybe I should go and help him? Adrian’s eyes glint with determination as he circles around the beast, trying to find an opening. I watch in awe as he charges towards the hydra’s main head, his jaws open wide and ready to strike. But this time, the hydra knows what he is doing. It wraps its massive body around Adrian’s, squeezing him so tightly that I can hear the bones in his body snapping. I feel a lump form in my throat as I watch my friend struggle against the monster’s grip. But just when I think it’s all over, Adrian grits his teeth and unleashes a burst of lightning that sears through the hydra’s body. The creature screams in agony as it disintegrates into a cloud of ash.

After the pups are in bed we curl up on the sofas to watch a movie, "I can't believe you two want to watch Twilight of all movies" "What?" Desert asks smirking "The wolves are complete morons, that's what" Acre adds, "No there not" Sky huffs "Err, yeah they are, like we ever act like they do" I state "Well derr, that's why its make-believe," Desert said as Sky added "You two are such dip shits" Little Lanna came trotting out of her bedroom putting a timely stop to our argument, "Hey sweetie, what are you doing up?" Acre asked

Making Takeshi sign in response. “See I will tell you everything about the basement and other stuff as we have a lot to talk about. First, why not he have our breakfast. I dont want it to end with the quarrel and you once again avoid eating” Takeshi smiles placing his hand upon Koishi’s only made him take his hand back the next second. “Okay” Koishi smiles as he avoids looking at Takeshi not noticing the sudden change of expression over his face. “Let's get started with it” Takeshi smiles looking down at his plate as Koishi first takes the cup of coffee recognizing his own cup which has his favourite anime character Gojo Saturo from Jujutsu Kaisen upon it.

It was as if they all had moved to a dark room and her eyes which stared into your soul was the only light so all you could do is stare back. Ayame exhales. “Aka Manto… Amanojaku… Gashadokuro… Jorogumo… Jubokko, Kappa, Kuchisake Onna, Kyokotsu, Nure Onna, Yuki Onna, Obariyon, Onihitokuchi, Shuten Doji, Tamamo-no-Mae, Yamauba, Sutoku Tenno… If its none of then then nod to this… Obake, Tengu, Tsukumogami, Kinataro, Rokurokubi, Yurei. None of these either huh… Then was it a Zashiki- warashi? Or a Tanuki. Don’t tell me perhaps a Ningyo or Amabie or an Iiju or a Kirin…. I’m getting exhausted now. I can’t find an answer…” says Ayame and starts chewing on her finger nails as her eyes started to get

The Moon Fang pack were the finest warriors of the world because of their following of the old ways. The Alphas stood, forgetting about their morning meal as Jonah appeared from the depths of the forest. Alpha Norman stood amongst the Alphas, shoulders pushed back and eyes calculating the new scenario they were now in. His skin felt as if it was on fire under the surface, the acrid smell of decaying flesh constantly wafted to his nose from his neck. The pain he felt within his soul was held at bay by a thin piece of thread, he couldn’t show any ounce of weakness to the pack of Alpha’s around him. War spread greed and any of them would take a chance to end his reign.

I laughed back. "Moon's from the Other Side" Kuru whispered loud enough for me to hear "they celebrate with a bearded, fat man wearing a red suit; and reindeer." There were giggles from everyone. Lee found this particularly amusing. I was confused on what they found so funny. "Korvin is like Santa's little helper" Carlo explained "He's a giant dog; I guess you'd call him that, with silver fur and swirly silver antlers. He has white tips on the ends of his fur, and black feet. I'm sure there is a card around somewhere with his picture on it. I'll show you later."
