Staffan had been reaching all the way back to the end of the pulpit shelf, his hands barely grasping what appeared to be a full bottle of some sort of liquid when Brent had quietly slipped into the Parish and called out his name. Unexpecting anyone to have been able to slip in that quietly, Staffan ...

Trent nodded at the idea. If these two were willing to come along with him while in this deathtrap, he was all for it. It meant two people out of his graduating class wouldn't be looking to kill him, which meant the world. Of course, when someone with a grudge stumbled upon him and decided that it w...

The noisy arrival of figures from the bushes near to the tennis courts had surprised Jamie, and for a few moments, she seriously contemplated taking off in the other direction. It would have been the smart move, and probably would have ensured her safety from any knife-wielding assailants. Naturally...

The Parish was a place of worship; a place of God. Whatever Gods that one might find themselves believing in, it was here that they could come and pray, or perhaps, as circumstances warranted, make their peace. It was an odd place to leave standing in a contest like Survival of the Fittest, but to s...

((Jamie Li continued from the Final Countdown )) Well, this was different. It had been one thing to wander about some dark tunnels for a few hours and lose all sense of bearing or direction, but it was another to exit those tunnels in a completely different locale than you'd been at before. When she...

After what seemed like days of searching around in the dark (even though truly, it had only been a few hours), Jamie finally found a door to the surface. With a visible sigh of relief, she pulled the door open and made her way to another part of the island. As she did, she still wondered how it was ...

((Reports of my demise have been greatly exaggerated)) For Trent, everything was moving in slow motion. People were coming and going so quickly that it made his head spin. One of the comings was especially memorable, as Trent had been momentarily distracted by some new arrival, and a kid had taken t...

"SON OF A BITCH!" The chain-link fence barely had time to react before the boot came out and slammed directly into its' centre section. The fence groaned under the impact of the boot, but still maintained the upright position that it had for years. The owner of the boot continued on, angri...

We're leaving together But still it's farewell And maybe we'll come back To Earth, who can tell? There are people on the planet Earth that are unable to contain their curiousity. If they see a button, it MUST be pushed. If a closed door lies in front of them, then opening it is a necessity. Such cu...

He's got broad shoulders, but isn't all that tall. Stand...

((Continued from somewhere else )) Where is he? I could swear that I saw him go this way...? As he'd been many times since he'd acclimated to this strange country from his native Sweden, Staffan Kronwall found himself absolutely bewildered. Of course, this time, it wasn't some strange American custo...

Without a single question in his mind, Jim Hughson had the most recognizable hockey voice of the modern era. Not only because he'd taken over announcing duties as the voice of the CBC's famed program 'Hockey Night in Canada', but also because for years, he'd been the voice of EA Sports' famous 'NHL'...

Of all the things to be doing in a school - I bet the principal would have an absolute COW if she could see me now! As far as regulation Olympic-sized swimming pools went, Bayview Secondary school had one of the finest in the state, complete with large changerooms, a full-scale diving platform, and...

((I'm just going to quickly interject here. I'd prefer if we left terms like Marty-Stu, and inside jokes like 'killer bears' on the chatrooms, the general chat, and the Internet. Certain people may take offense to things like this, and it can be seen as an attack on the character from the handler t...

Dorian's computer beeped so loudly that he actually dropped the thermos of coffee that he was holding, and if the thing'd been open in the first place, he probably would have spilled it all over the ground. He'd been forced to admit to himself that he'd become real jumpy after the three other terror...
