He grabbed the treats again and drove over to wait outside the kindergarten. Children began to come out one after another, but Celeste never appeared. James got out of the car and headed in.

The word "forget" resonated deeply. What a beautiful, impossible concept. The irony was not lost on me.

"I have gotten nowhere by hesitating," Am-Heh whispered to himself as he dragged a claw across the prominent vein in his wrist. Blood spilled from under the jagged point, cascading in droplets onto the parched ground.

"You Fool! What have you done! You have shamed us and now we could be sentenced because you have always refused to do the right thing where that boy is concerned! I warned you!
