Phoenix Novels & Stories

The pain in my chest was already at the maximum with worry about our pups, but to know that some women and children perished only made this nightmare truly horrific. Still, I had to choke all this down because Phoenix was a killing machine that no one could get close to. I wouldn’t let anyone get close to her. This was the retribution she needed and then we’d deal with this ‘Eden.’ I watched with bated breath to witness this piece of shit be sent to hell.

(Five years later) Lyra’s POV I leaned against the dark tinted window of my limousine as it drove past the City. My reflection stared back at me, my face covered with a Phoenix shaped mask that only allowed my eyes and mouth to be seen, it was my Trademark. The world now knew me as The Phoenix, the name wasn't just branding. It was my story. I had risen from destruction, rebuilt by hands that should never have held me together, and now the very fire that consumed me was now my fuel and weapon.

The whole of the city is laid out beyond my bedroom window. We entered the city on flat roads but the landscape this side of the palace is all hills and I can see most of the city spread out before me. I have never seen anything like it. All the different buildings, the colour, I couldn’t see individual people but I could see movement and signs of life in the streets.

Greg laughs as I fan myself dramatically with my hand. Despite the heat, Phoenix is beautiful. We spend a couple of hours wandering around the city, stopping for iced drinks before exploring local shops and little art markets scattered around downtown. I end up buying a small cactus keychain I absolutely do not need. “It’s cute,” I defend. “It’s a cactus.” “It has a tiny cowboy hat.” Greg looks at it carefully. “Okay, yeah, that’s fair.”

The fragrance of herbs and incense filled my nostrils as Hella opened her wooden door. My eyes widened at the wall of shelves full of jars of numerous ingredients. “Have a seat and make yourself comfortable,” Hella said with a snicker. Making my way into her small living room I sat down on a velvet settee and waited for her to join me. Hella's joints popped as she sank beside me. “You have Phoenix blood and awakened it by being roasted I'm thinking,” she blurted with a toothy grin. Dumbfounded, I just stared at her.

And Anna told them about Phoenix. She talked about the city with the particular affection of someone who had chosen to stay somewhere they had not chosen to begin in — the affection of ownership, of a place that was hers because she had made it hers rather than because she had been placed there. She talked about the light, which was different from Los Angeles light, more direct, less filtered.

She talked about the th

A low growl rumbled in Phoenix's chest, "You killed her. The one thing good in my life and you took her away from me!" Lucifer made a tsk'ing sound, "Your saving grace ended up being your greatest downfall Phoenix. I really feel for you, truly I do." Before Phoenix could say anything Zion stepped forward, "Enough!" He yelled, all eyes falling on him, "I'm not in the mood for this crap," his voice was strangely calm; the definition of calm before the storm.

the woman said. The Phoenix floated with her wings on fire. Her eyes close but still radiating in power. She was enclosed in a circle with five points on the proportional circumference. The points were empty. It looked like a stadium where the only present was the floating Phoenix and a platform for a visitor to stand on. George Luna, Hybrid, bowed in front of the Phoenix. “Stand,” the Phoenix commanded though her lips were not moving and her eyes were shut. Luna stood, “Your Royalty, it’s about time.”

Penn said seriously. “I want that too. And we're closer than ever, babe. I can't wait for our lives to actually start...our normal lives I mean.” "So let's get up and get one step closer to that hm?” “Let's do it.” *** “So what are Phoenixs like?” I asked Nova. “They're such kind creatures.” She smiled. “Gentle and intelligent. I'm sure they'll help get you what you need.” “Well that's good. The sooner this is over, the better.”
