I began to hope something would come up that would enable me to escape cooking that morning. Amelia went to join the women in the dining room while I went to the kitchen. It was a disaster. There was burnt toast and bacon. There was smoke in the air, so I figured they had just put out a grease fir
~Leo~ Max and Kyle were very diligent in organising my warriors. I arrived there with Marcel, Theodore, David, Devin, my father, and Sylvester. We needed everyone with a command on deck. I knew what I would do violated their rights, but these were desperate times that called for desperate measur
I dismissed the rest of the warriors, and they left. I could see relief in their eyes. When they dragged Kappa James away, I felt rage in me. He was lucky I was stopped, or I would have killed him. He had hurt me badly. We could source Nitric Acid elsewhere but might not get enough if an army c

"Suzy," I heard my father say. He was the only one that called me that, and he knew I hated it so much, but he teased me with it so much when I was a child. I looked at him, and he wiped away his tears. "I am sorry, honey. I am very sorry," He said, and I knew he had told his part because he wasn
~Devin~ I knew it would be hard for Susan to unite with her parents, so I supported her. I had sentiments and did not trust them, but I could not show them. Susan was already beating herself up about everything her family members had done; the least I could do was ease her mind. It wasn't great t
