Shelter Mountain の小説・ストーリー

The perfect hide out. "Good job, little boy."

I close my eyes, focusing on her fingers soothingly stroking my hair and the comforting rhythm of her heartbeat. Raven Anita had fallen asleep on my chest as light rain pitter pattered against the windows. The trauma of that night still haunts her. Storms, like the one that just passed triggers PTSD attacks. I’m the only one who can calm her down. She’s been to an odd number of therapists but none of which can help her.

"The Heart's destruction should've severed all central code links. That mark shouldn't exist anymore." "But it does," I whispered. And I could feel something pulsing beneath it. Like it was calling something home. We found shelter in the bones of an old observatory built into the mountain's side. It hadn't been used in years; it had rusted panels and shattered screens, but it held walls and warmth, and right now, that was enough. Kieran lit a small fire with old wiring and a portable arc spark. Subject 13 lay down beside a cracked generator. Null stayed by the only window, staring at the mountain like it might still chase us.

Campian told Shaun, “Mr. Cash, I'm sure no one will set fire to the mountain again. After all, burning a mountain or a forest is a big deal. “I'll send my team members to guard the mountains and forests. Even if some outlaws want to cause trouble, they'll retreat when they see the people from Admiralporium.” Shaun was beyond delighted when he heard what Campian had said. “Thank you so much, Captain Wolke!” It went without saying that he would not reject Campian’s offer. After all, he was the only one in Skyriv, where the mountains and forests were protected by Admiralporium. Of course, he also understood that Campian was doing this because of Kayson. If it weren’t for Kayson, he would’ve gon

Jabir got up from the ground and commanded, “Green Dragon and Trine, you two shall return to Bale City and recuperate. We will take care of the rest.” With that, someone came over and carried Green Dragon before leaving the place quickly together with Trine. Jabir led the remaining four Dragun Squad’s agents all the way to the other end of the village. *** The heavy snowfall continued. Judging from the blizzard, it was deduced that the snowfall would only become heavier throughout the day. Bale City's largest mountain range was Sheep Mountain. From afar, the mountain range's facade appeared to be two sheep facing each other, hence the name.

Rowan was not the only one preparing herself for the terrible weather to come. When Caine had taken his team of Domineers deep into the mountains, the first thing he had them do was construct a shelter near the edge of the clear-cut in anticipation of the storm. Most of the Domineers were skeptical of the severity of such an event, oftentimes laughing and shrugging it off as hardly anything to be worried about. It took a great deal of scrutiny from Caine, and sometimes threatening, for the Domineers to create a shelter large enough to house them all when the storm struck the Dark Zone and sturdy enough to withstand its powerful winds.

(Euan’s P.O.V) The Ever-Reaching Mountains were the one place we never considered because it was nearly uninhabitable for anyone, including shifters. Brenna’s eyes shift nervously between me, my father, and her mates. “The Ever-Reaching Mountains? How are you able to live there?” My father questions. “Well, the base of the mountains isn't too bad. When you get further up the mountains, the weather and elevation become too much.” The door is thrown open and in storms Killian.

The kind of place where time itself seemed to slow down. The air was thick with a sharp, biting cold that made it hard to breathe at first. It stung my skin, sending a shiver down my spine as I stepped out of the plane. The snow-covered ground stretched out before me, a pristine, untouched white that seemed to go on forever. I could see the looming silhouette of the Foraker Mountain in the distance, its peak covered in thick snow and jagged cliffs. The mountain was massive—an imposing giant that dominated the skyline, casting an almost oppressive shadow over everything beneath it.

she asked, feeling awed. Aaron shrugged. “I don’t know. Shifter towns are weird. I almost believe they exist in a different dimension altogether. Dragon Tree Falls is nestled in a valley between two mountains–the one we just crossed–Direwolf Mountain, and Jordan-Kai Mountain. It’s so peaceful here, isn’t it?” Keyah nodded as she got out of the car and walked toward the large lake. Aaron followed her.

Anya’s POV The safe house wasn’t a house at all. It was an old ranger’s cabin tucked deep into a quiet fold of the San Juan Mountains, miles from the nearest paved road and even farther from anything that resembled the world we’d just escaped. The drive up had been long and winding, the SUV bouncing over dirt tracks that felt like they hadn’t been used in years. When we finally arrived, the air hit me like a clean slap—cold pine, damp earth, and the faint, sharp scent of snow still clinging to the higher peaks. No bleach. No smoke from burning offices. No artificial perfume or hospital disinfectant. Just real air, the kind that made your lungs feel awake again.
