Alone

Emma is a woman caught between worlds – her mind and her life.

An adventure of Bob Derob, Bored-est man in the Universe

What to do? Stand up, and go back to boredom, or sit, and live on pigeon forever, and never know again the feeling of clean underpants?

Rage. Primal Justice.

The moon crowns my head as I tear off its twitching arms and suck up slick metallic juices: peel of bits of cloth and crunch through bones – sighing as the taste of life gradually calms my rage. Soon, the bones are licked clean and carelessly discarded along the marred pavement. Now I feel whole and want to discover the world.

The Hunt

This was the first appearance of Connie, who turned out to be a vampire hunting Librarian (with help from Kate and Damian!).

Flash fiction, word count only 197.

There’s power in his movements, but it doesn’t occur to me to be afraid as he approaches me, holds his hand out in offer. I take it, gazing at his handsome face, the dark eyes that smile quietly at me. The club is crowded, yet we may as well be all alone as he leads me out to the dance floor. I’ve never danced like this, so sensually, with so much body contact. His hands search the bared skin of my lower back, caressing lightly as we move together.
