We stepped down from the carriage and into the street as a group. Everyone had come along, and we were all prepared for some trouble, strapped with every powerful artifact and tool they had available. Taylor ha...

I'd met Abel a few times now, and every one of them he'd come across as a carefree, somewhat loony man, who just did his own thing and didn't much care what anyone thought. He was friendly, polite, and most likely laughing at you behind that mask even if you couldn't tell, but n...

There were six new robed figures, all wearing hammered bronze masks just like the ones on the other men. The one at the front, who based on position I assumed was responsible for the wave of corrosive black gas, turned to the downed figures. "Honestly. The three of you had one j...

We set up on top of a building near the east end of G district to watch the meeting. We hadn't known where it was, but the guy we were following showed up early, so we had some waiting to do. We hid up on top of a building with Callie using her stealth field to cover us. The &nb...

The preparations for the meeting we were crashing began the next day. Benny made the wishes after talking with Callie for a bit. It seemed like I was running into a wall on storing more than ten of any one kind of attack, and Benny was best able to supply a new type. Callie was ...

Callie's match, the last one, wasn't ready right after Benny's. We had a little while to digest the battles and think over what had happened, as well as strategize for her match. From what Alden had said, this one was going to be the toughest for any of us to manage. Benny  ...

My opponent, as it happened, was ready first. I'd been worried that we would need to wait, but apparently Alden had taken 'is here right know' as unspoken criteria, and all of our opponents were on the premises. I was glad not to have to wait for my big match. I was raring  ...

Callie was staring at the man in the black cloth covering hard. Her eyes were hard and cold as permafrost as they bored into the dark form. "So that was what? Some kind of test? You ATTACK my boyfriend just so see what I would do about it? Because if that's the kind of place thi...
