no light - chapter four: when a girl became a girl

        The Reaping day means nothing to him. He's fourteen now, and his name has yet to be drawn out of the large clear bowl, so Cato is one of the children that feels invincible, even for that one moment when another's name is called. He watches as the boy walks tremblingly up to the platform where their District's representative is waiting, along with the female Tribute. Cato smirks and adjusts his shirt. Another year gone, and he's still in his District. He'll grow stronger, and he'll win the Games, should he ever be Reaped. But not now. He's too young, he decides. He can put up with his hellish home for a little while, if only to gro

no light - chapter one: when ice met fire

The school walls were white, bland like the uniforms the Peacekeepers wore. For Glory, the colours were comforting, the colours of her parents, of her shining hair, and of her brother's matching curls. She fisted her hands in her pockets, grateful that she'd been allowed to wear the boy's uniform, despite her mother's earlier protests. Next to her, Vic was tapping his fingers against his legs, restless as always. Reaching out a hand, she stilled his movements with a soft touch and a simple nod of her head. His green eyes slid over to look at her, before he rolled them away with a sigh, his movements stopping. Glory looked straight ahead and l

the owl's web - prologue

Arthur Liam Trow was the sort of boy people either hated, or thought was positively adorable. There wasn't really any middle ground, or so his parents said. Liam's friends and siblings at camp thought very differently. Everyone had a different opinion of the sprightly 10 year old, whether it was mild amusement or willingness to kill the boy, these opinions still existed. He'd lasted his first summer without much incident. He'd been claimed only a few days into being at camp, as per 'the new rule', whatever that was. He learned to fight, he learned to strategize, and he learned who his friends were. Liam's second summer was maybe less even

aad - for hridi

She wipes the sweat from her brow with a rune-marked hand, studying the careful lines of the Voyance Mark on her hand, as she walks through the streets back to the Institute. Mundanes pass by her, and even in the crowded city she passes unnoticed even without her glamour. Amita knows it's better not to be seen, but with the amount of people traipsing around the city, she will never be noticed. The Institute is cool and she is thankful as she wipes the back of her neck with a towel, wishing she had worn her hair up. She spots Ryo napping on a couch, a book lying face down on her chest, and resists the urge to laugh at her parabatai. Instead,

birds, bees, and polar bears

“You my friend, have lived alone with penguins and polar bears and snowballs and snowmen and icy ponds far too long,” the eleven-year-old blonde said, steering his white-haired friend into the shade. Fintan looked around nervously as they sat down across from the Aphrodite cabin. “What does that have to do with the Aphrodite cabin?” Fintan asked, glancing at Liam, who shook his head, as though he were wise in the ways of the world. “First off, we're here because you've only known polar bears and penguins your whole life-” “That's not strictly true Liam-” “Shh, polar bear, I'm trying to

after the moon falls from the sky

Howls echo throughout the forest, from one wolf to another. The russet wolf pads through the undergrowth, sniffing the ground for his mate's familiar scent among the damp leaves and animal traces that litter the forest. Above him, the sunrise is glorious, golden and orange hanging through the green foliage of the summer trees. The wolf shakes his groomed fur, picking up the scent and taking off further into the forest, happening upon a small clearing. Close to the edge of the forest, a girl lies fast asleep on the grass, shadows falling across her naked form like blankets. The wolf pads gently over to her, nudging her freckled face with his

"I heard it was pizza night," Kendra yells, as she opens the door with a smirk. Her smirk turns into a grin at her perfect timing, making eye contact with Brennan just as he lifts the pizza box open. "You’d be right," Zatanna says wryly, laughing as she makes her way past the bouncing dog at Kendra’s feet to hug her friend. "How was work?" "Oh you know," Kendra says, rolling her eyes, "Fine, long, the usual." she adds, leaning over to pet Croc’s head. The house is bustling as usual, and she spots Anna curled up on the couch, a slice of pizza already in hand as she chatters on about school, and Kendra’s just a little

His blue tail flicks through the water as he swims, hiding behind a large rock on the bottom of the ocean. Peeking over the top of the rock, he widens his eyes as he spots her, swimming along with wide eyes, curiously exploring every single possible spot she could. Ian smiles a little, ducking behind the boulder as he notices her lifting her head. He flicks his tail nervously again, before pulling it up to his chest, making himself a small as he can. He has to remain hidden, or else- “Found you!” Star chirps, as she swims over the top of the rock, flipping herself upside down to press a light kiss to his nose. “You're pret
