My Fairy Darkness

There are those that believe that fairies are cute, dainty, little creatures that can be held in the palm of their hand. This is a gross misconception. We don’t flit around, spread pixie dust or any other crap like that. I, for one, wouldn’t be caught dead in those skimpy, slutty, attention grabbing outfits that she parades around in. We definitely aren’t off spreading love and whatever else that little twit stands for. I am nobody’s Tinkerbell.

Who I am is the reason for this tale? It wasn’t supposed to be like this. I didn’t think that it would get this bad. Yet, here I sit. I am sitting at the head of the table, watching an annoying little man make his way to the elders of our community to inform them of something I already know about. If I weren’t who I was, then I would’ve left already. Unfortunately, I am who I am and I have to give a damn.

I’m called Sapphire to those that know death and evil.

Arabella Gwin is a fairy unlike any other. This particular fairy would carve her name in your chest if you remotely asked about Neverland or Peter Pan. She lives a dangerous life until she has an unexpected meeting with Cobalt. What happens next even she couldn’t anticipate.

The Good Doctor

Doctor Stevenson was at the top of his 1949 graduating class. His work as a doctor and scientist on stem cell research had the potential to be lifesaving for people nationwide—except for his young son.

After developing a rare blood disease at the age of five, his son died within a few months. The research gained from his loss won the doctor a spot in a Chicago hospital dedicated to experimental treatments for diseases like his son had. Though he would never be able to benefit from his research, the doctor hoped the new job would mend his family's grief. That's when the headaches started. 

Brain cancer was eating away at him. Chemo was his only option. They said his life would get better. They said the treatment would work. But Doctor Stevenson knew his biological clock would fizz out one way or another—unless he could find a way to keep it ticking trapped in one of his patients' bodies.

With the police not being extremely helpful, she is faced with the fear of trying to locate her children that he has kidnapped.

Patty has bumped into this “man” and she continues to sense more of this presence since she finds herself floundering and angry with the police for not being more useful. He has been lingering, and it both calms and arouses her. Calms her, because he claims that he will help her; arouses her,because she has not been touched by a man in many years and his feather-like touches are enough to send her off he edge. Her mind is clouded by her: desires, fears, and her duties.

Echoes of Time - Thread of Life

My name is Desmona Thompson, a fortuneteller by trade, most days. I dabble in this and that, whatever really, just to make rent.

Up until a few months ago I worked for the FBI as a consultant on what is affectionately known as the Spook Squad. Ritual murders and mass suicides is the usual flavor. All in the name of some archaic god or another, the Spook Squad mops up the mess, and it is usually - a mess. It’s a bloody job they do, don’t know how they sleep to be honest, I have trouble most days.

More often than not I’m called in for my extensive knowledge in the occult and my other less recognized abilities. Can’t really put on my application, ability to read memories, I’d be put into the crazy bin.

I live my life day in day out, hunting an answer a question so large I dare not speak it, but must. How do I, Desmona Thompson save the world?

Into The Woods

:

Amber Richardson used to be your typical fourteen-year-old girl. She was bright, funny, and well educated. She also took her school work very seriously. She had just entered her last year of junior high, and was excited about the road ahead.

While in the hospital, she acquired a new friend named Kira. She couldn’t respond to anyone but her at first, and couldn’t understand why—until Kira helped her. Kira was able to open her eyes again and once she did, she revealed that she was in fact a ghost and needed Amber to help set her free.

Amber felt so grateful for the help that she decided she would do whatever it took to help Kira and accepted her role as “The Savior”. Surrounded by evil spirits, and threats to her family and friends, how would Amber pull off the ultimate deadly task and get Kira into the woods?
