Bully (part 1)
One SEVENTH GRADE SUCKS! Had I known seventh grade was going to be so different from sixth grade, I would have stayed home. I stood at the end of the sandy driveway, barefoot, waiting for the bus. My desperate attempt at iridescent fishscale trousers were a dull hand-me-down from one of my cousins that lived in Aspen. Too much time had passed and the sparkle the scales once held were failing me now. “They are nearly years ahead the fashion trend in Aspen,” my mother had said as I grumpily put the trousers on. They were tight, and fit well, but they didn’t shine with a kaleidoscope of colors like what was popular. Just one more thing to get made fun of about at school. <Ugh! Seventh grade…>

The Day the World Broke
The Day the World Broke I REMEMBER WATCHING THE LAST ANIMAL IN THE WORLD — DIE. It was right in the middle of Earthmother’s Day. I was in World Tree Park, looking up at Vivirdrasil’s all-encompassing branches. It’s said that the giant tree gave life to all things in the world. Around me were hundreds of dancing and gyrating Wildermen, with their luminescent orange eyes. The orange fruit that supposedly gave them their glowing irises, hanging from many of the branches — though they looked half-rotted and sad.

A Piece of the Pie (Chapters 43 + 44)
Chapter 43 – The Fourth Day I woke up after what I felt had been only maybe three or so hours – despite this I was on top of the world. The third sun just came up over the horizon, and the light sparkled beautifully off the waves. There was a warm breeze blowing through the palms. Feo was curled up beside me, an arm resting over my stomach.

MASTIFI The Ancient Chronicles
Suddenly all of the emergency strobe lights begin flashing. An announcement begins over the Public Announcement system. “Code Griffin! Code Griffin! Please remain calm. All attending personnel, please report to 5B2, I repeat 5B2”. Kendra looks up at the door. She reads the door out loud, “Wing 5, Section B, Room 2!” Joe looks around the room in desperation, searching for an escape. The door opens and Mega is standing in the doorway to their room with a serious look on his face. He grabs Kendra’s hand and says, “Are you two waiting for an invitation? Come on, let’s go!!!” Mega then passes gas masks to Kendra and Joe. Kendra replies, “How did you even find us? How are we getting out of here?!” Joe added, “Are we being extracted?” Mega responds, “No, we’re on our own. Their friends are higher than mine; so, let’s be quick and quiet. Follow me.” After turning the corner, Mega holds up a fist to signal to Kendra and Joe to stop. Mega listens for the guard's footsteps to get close enough before he throws a smoke grenade. They follow Mega through the smoke-filled corridor as the armed guards fall to the ground in a coughing frenzy. Mega attaches a device to a keypad that unlocks the freight elevator. Once the door opens, Mega says to Kendra and Joe, “You’re on your own from here. I’ll buy you some time. There’s a black SUV outside waiting for you both.” Kendra replies, “No, we stay together!” Joe responds, “Ken, we don’t have time, we have to go”. Joe grabs her hand and pulls her into the elevator. Mega presses the button the elevator ascends to the parking level above.

Whimper, Not Bang
The most surprising thing to everyone turned out to be how mundane the end of the world was. You would think that an alien invasion from outer space, complete with reptilian Masters of the Universe equipped with laser emitting talons would have been more fraught, and frankly, more dramatic.

The Ego Collector
The morning greeted me as it always does, in a strange room surrounded by strange things and a strange face staring back at me in the mirror. I know that I am now Heather, and by the end of the day I will know much more about Heather, and tomorrow it will no longer matter. I learned a great deal about Tyler, whom I was yesterday, and plenty about Cassandra, the self I was before that. But what I know about them doesn't matter at all to Heather, the me of today, and it will matter less to the me of tomorrow - whomever that will be.
