Chris twitched as he noticed a cargo container vanish out of the corner of his eye that one of the flickering street lights had been illuminating. "What the heck?" he muttered under his breath then stumbled back as something jumped down from one of the piles of crushed cars and landed in front of him. He gulped when he pointed his flashlight at the figure he could barely see and realized that the leather clad girl had a tinkertech energy weapon of some kind and it was pointed at his head. "I ...

Amy looked up from working on her math homework as the door opened and her sister walked into the living room with two unfamiliar capes and a strawberry milkshake. She glanced between the man's professional looking robes and the cat girl in a fur bikini. "Let me guess, you're a fan of Myrddin?"
"Not particularly," Myst replied as he studied the frizzy haired teenager sitting on the couch in a pair of red bootie shorts and a black T-shirt that said, 'Boob Jobs 500 Bucks, Cash Only!' in w...

Despite the corruption, Myst was pleased to find that Coil had a metric ton of contacts that he could tap at a moment's notice for information and never really use up any of his leverage, thanks to the way his power worked and thanks to having multiple clones of said bastard. “Let's see if I can put this knowledge to work for me…”
“Sir,” one of the clones said politely, “why don’t you take a shower and get some fresh clothes while we take care of the details. We can have s...

Myst blinked as he fell out of his chair and ended up in a dark concrete room with a set of steel bars. "What the hell?" he sputtered as he tried to figure out how the hell he'd just gone from hitting the button to print out his CYOA sheet to ending up in a cell. "Yeah, I'm awake and I'm in a cell, this isn't good…" he trailed off as an alarm went off. "This is really bad."
He stood up and checked the bars, rather annoyed to find out that they were solid and locked. 'Great, how the he...

Amy pulled her attention off the dragon flying over the water when Loki reappeared wearing a black conductor's uniform that he'd copied from an old Bug's Bunny cartoon and a guy fawkes mask that did very little to conceal his shoulder length blue hair, "Any trouble?" she asked, raising her eyebrows when she noticed that Loki was currently male.
"No," Loki replied as he handed Amy a black debit card, a folder and a silk robe, figuring she wouldn't want to be naked when he was planning on...

"Moment of truth," Harry said as he set the enchant for the crystal ball to scry for females then tapped the Enchant button and started pouring magic into the softball sized crystal ball he'd picked up at the arcane supply store, an amusing cross between an apothecary and an equipment store for magic users that he was probably going to be visiting a lot once he got his enchanting up to speed.
Franklin couldn't help but feel a touch of envy as he watched the torrent of magic flow into th...

“Zoom,” Sophia Hess shivered in terror as she heard the same whisper that she’d already heard several times and felt something brush her neck, knowing there’d be yet another red mark on her neck. “Come back here!”
“Zoom, zoom,” the voice whispered behind Sophia, causing her to spin around and swing at the air.
“You think this is funny!” Sophia snapped, ignoring the looks of fear that Emma was giving her.

"Are you going to use the hat or just keep staring at it?" Harry asked as he pulled the last reasonably sized chunk of scrap metal out of the sand and dropped it into his new scrap chest.
"Sorry." Franklin reached up and set the hat on his head. "I was just thinking about my new class." He focused on the words and gestures of the rabbit summoning spell that he could suddenly 'remember' and cast it.
Harry watched as Franklin finished his spell and a tall pink haired young lady with...

Franklin frowned as he looked at the strange glass contraption in the chest. "Any idea what the glass contraption is?"
"Nothing useful," Harry replied as he picked up the hookah, dropped it in his enchanted box and hit his reverse engineering button. 'Purification and a skill acquisition enchant I can't learn,' he mused as he pulled the hookah out of his enchanting menu, touched his lips to the mouthpiece and acquired the Mistweaver skill. "Or not, it gives a skill to breathe mist and s...

"Don't worry, we're just appreciating the size of your hoard," Harry said before Franklin or Jessica could say anything that might get them eaten by the dragon.
"It is quite impressive isn't it?" the dragon asked.
"It's certainly impressive." Harry glanced over at the door with an exit sign over it that was being blocked by the dragon's tail. "I don't suppose you can train people in enchanting?"
The dragon snorted. "I am a dragon."

Uber twitched as someone knocked on the window despite the fact that he'd only glanced away for a second. "Fuck!" he swore as he glanced back and saw a cloaked stranger with glowing red eyes in a pit of inky darkness an inch from the window. "Don't fucking do that!"

Harry used the time the sphinx was mulling over the question to glance around the chamber filled with bones and glittering treasures half hidden under piles of bones. 'No obvious exit other than the way we came, no chest I can just inventory and apparate, let's hope my idea works.'
