Spirited
The Invisible Hand has been abducting woman. Young, indigenous woman. They are reported missing, and many are found too late, murdered. Those empowered to protect the people are not paying attention, so the indigenous tribes came together in the greatest gathering ever known. Seven days of ceremony, fasting, chanting, dancing, and praying, they called forth the spirit world of all animals and creatures, and their prayer was granted. If you were of strong heart and purposeful need, you could transform into your spirit animal; you could become, Spirited.

Dark Storm
Blaak's parents had died in the raid of 2147, leaving him orphaned and cowering in the rubble, foraging for food and water. For a short time, he had been a happy child, that life now a dream as he fought to survive. Converting one of the half- destroyed rooms in his old home into a quasi-livable shelter, he fought to protect it from scavengers.

The Language of Love
Seki had grown up in the shadows, where all he could see and touch was darkness. He’d never had a home, not truly. He lived among a group of delinquents, strangers to themselves and to each other, who spoke the language of violence. Such a language had never strongly spoken to Seki. He’d watched men fistfight to the death before the time he was seven, and he never found those men to be awe-inspiring. They were nothing but brutes, seeking meaning and pride in their own meaningless lives by beating each other senseless. It was repulsive. They were all repulsive.

Cinderlass
Beep. Beep. Beep. The beeping grew louder. My eyes fluttered open to see curtain rings. Where was I? I was in a bed, but it was not my bed. I was in a hospital, the glowing incandescent lights hurt to look at directly. Just then, an African American man walked into my room, he stood tall maybe taller than six feet. He wore a doctor's coat, and he held a tablet in his hands.
