Her dark hair was folded back into a perm and had tiny streaks of white aligned from both sides of her temples.
It was the Sinclair Manor, ranked number three of the top ten biggest manors in Atlanta, thanks to its exquisite appearance as a modernized castle with its six tall peaking towers, all of which were coated white, surrounded with a large lawn almost three-quarters the size of a football field.
Back in the kitchen, the woman had taken the kettle from the electric stove and went on to pour it into a tall cream china cup that had tiny multi-colored flower petals designed all around it.

"Well," her brother pondered on, "let's see. There's Neal deGrasse Tyson and..."

The driver’s tinted window slid down and Susan Claire’s face came into view. She arched one end of her lips to give a smiling expression while noticing that the sentinel had across his chest just below his left shoulder which revealed his name as 'Julio'. Mexican? Susan was not sure as the sentinel had zero accent, overlooking that he had just addressed her as 'ma’am'. Even her own grandmother despised that word in her eighties! Her soul re

Don't mind me,” added his uncle, waving a hand in his direction, “heard you got a scholarship!” Lucas gave him a nod and noticed that he was putting on a jacket before grabbing the keys to his truck. “Closing already?” Uncle Mac grinned and Lucas went on to discover that even the hair on his balding head had been combed. “Yeah, you can hang around and close up before eight,” his uncle responded and a little bit evasive but Lucas knew where he was going.

T H E L A S T W E E K of March found Carmen walking into an investigation room with soon-to-be detective Brian Pierce, making that her seventh session at the precinct. She stood next to him and they were looking at a woman seated in the opposite side of the room, through a window. Carmen noticed how her hands had been cuffed over the table and she had hair that was so dark it was probably dyed from its original vague blond or light brunette. She also had dark eyeliner and a tiny ring popping out from her nostrils, dangling slightly above her lips that looked as if they had been smothered in purple ink, giving her a total Gothic look. All of this was an analysis by Carmen; observation being her favorite part of what she had been learning at the precinct as an intern. "So," Carmen began, "what exactly are we looking at?" "Prudence."

There was a street lamp about a foot away from the house, the little amber light it cast revealing that the house was of two floors, with a dark window on the upper floor. The lamp began to flicker just as a light gale swept a litter of dried leaves across the porch of the house, with some even brushing against the window. With a crackle, the light from the lamp dwindled out, enveloping the area around the house in total darkness, leading up through the window into an even darker room where soft noises of someone breathing could be heard as if they were asleep. One of the window's panes suddenly flung open

Rise of The Darkforce Epilogue
The end of the third year of school had finally come to a close, summing up yet another crazy twelve months, however, not all was quite done yet; as there were still some unresolved scenarios like whatever happened onwards between Marcus and Bianca ever since her birthday or whether Lucas finally told Nat how he felt about her. Well, there was still another school year left and maybe it would be enough to mend some probably broken hearts with the likes of Jasmine after her unrequited love for the quarterback... This extended even over to Carter•Labs, with the two scientists doing their best to be 'professional' and maybe it would stay that way. * The fall of 2029 fo
