Giannis passes the ball to Holiday, who's open on the wing, and he knocks down the 3-pointer. Making the score 29 to 20 in our favor. The Bucks are refusing to go away. Before I can even start dribbling the ball down the court. Tom calls a timeout.
We all head over, and he gives me a look. Telling me, it's time to sit out....

The last week of school was slow, mainly from being stuck in my classes. I only got to train in The Room Of Requirement 3 times, and Albus could only show up for one. Professor McGonagall is watching me. Making sure I'm in almost all my classes.

The world around me turns black and white, and all of time stops. I stand up and look around the devastated land. My efforts to dive into The Force are evident even now. But what catches my eye is a flowing river of white energy.
It's traveling through the trees. I turn around and see my meditating form. That's the most vulnerable I'll ever be. But even then, The Force will lash out to protect me. It's done it in...

Dany's lips dance with mine as the familiar motion captures my mind. The sounds I hear from her are the same as when we share a bed. The same on the nights we made Aly and Jae. This is leading to a night similar to those.
There are two major differences, though. The first is Dany already being pregnant, meaning we can't ...

Nella struggles behind me as she uses The Force to lift another artifact from Dawnrider. She's been at it for a few hours now, and she's starting the heavy objects. A chuckle escapes my lips as I see the redness in her cheeks and her jaw clenching.

The security box holding the artifact belonging to my house lies in front of me. In a swift motion with my lightsaber, it's cut open, and I look down. There, sitting in its calmness, is the Holocron of Jedi Master Lexxi Opal.
