Magical Realism
Firebug: Ch. 36 - The Bunker
Theo's head was still spinning when a heavy canvas sack was shoved over it. Being thrust into total darkness without warning was absolutely disorienting, not to mention it nearly made him cack himself. Roman's muffled swear and the sounds of a struggle echoed from the other side of the theater; a clear indication he was given the same treatment. Naturally, Theo made a valiant attempt to remove the smelly sack from his person. His efforts were rewarded seconds later by hands - strong as iron and big as Christmas hams - pinning his arms behind his back.

The Mermaid of the Forgotten Sea
Sixteen years ago, a terrible storm swallowed an entire kingdom beneath the sea. No one knew exactly what happened. The mermaids who survived called it The Night of the Black Tide. They said the ocean turned completely dark, the moon disappeared behind a wall of clouds, and something ancient woke beneath the deepest trench.

Firebug: Ch. 35 - Phoenix
This was bad. Roman was outnumbered a hundred to one against a roomful of agitated, high-strung Pyros, and nowhere near the exit. His instincts battled it out tooth and claw within him, one set screaming at him to fight and the other to run. As a result, he was deadlocked in place. The room was only getting hotter by the second, and the rain falling heavier.
