WARNING: SPOILERS UP THROUGH EPISODE 15 AU for LJ prompt: Kotetsu's evolving NEXT powers make him a target of Maverick's schemes. Can Barnaby rescue him before it's too late or is it already too late? Chapter 1 The soft rain mixed with the blood slipping down pale and cooling skin. The blood slowly dispersed with each droplet, but the gentle rain couldn't fix the shattered bones, couldn't heal the gaping wound were the man's neck had been. More droplets fell from the numb and trembling fingers of the figure hunched over the prone form. The eerie red glow had faded, replaced by the shine of water and blood on tan skin and dark hair. “Not again . . . oh god, please tell me not again!” The raw wail echoed, unanswered as it descended in to sobs. The rain increased into a steady pounding rhythm as the man staggered to his feet. He held his hands out away from his body as if he couldn't believe they were part of himself. They were still stained with blood, cut and bruised from the fight. Stumbling away from the body he tried to avoid looking at the other bodies scattered around the field. The grass was trampled and missing altogether in places. Through the sheets of rain sweeping across the field he could see his other 'comrades'. He shuddered, hanging his head. How did this happen? How did I go from being a hero to being a contract killer, a murderer . . . “Move it Kaburagi or we won't make the extraction point.” The barked command snapped him out of his thoughts. Oh yes, that's right. I wasn't given a choice. Shedding the blood and rain soaked military vest he let the cold rain pound against his back and shoulders as he walked the thin cotton t-shirt doing nothing to protect him. No, Albert Maverick had given him two choices. “You can stay and help make the world a safer place or I can have you permanently confined as a dangerous next. Of course if you choose the later, we can never allow visitors.” Admittedly, he pretty much quit listening after that, choosing not to think about what he'd have to do in order to continue to see his family. Bunny. * * * The young blond stood perfectly straight in front of the large wooden desk, his eyes never leaving the plump figure lounging behind it. “I would really like to know, sir. He was my partner for over a year and-” “And you think you have some obligation to him? Is that it?” “Well . . . yes, I mean he did help me defeat the man responsible for my parent's death. I think it only right that I reciprocate in some fashion.” “You seem to be under the impression that he's in some sort of distress.” Albert Maverick leaned forward the leather chair groaning in protest. “I assure you that when I reassigned him I took great care in choosing his new mission. He's still doing what he loves to do and doing it quite well actually.” Barnaby's shoulders slumped almost imperceptibly though his expression betrayed nothing. This was a mistake, I should have trusted Kotetsu when he said he was fine, but . . . “So when will he be back?” Maverick's eyes narrowed slightly and he looked down at the desk calendar splayed before him. “They just finished some relief work in Peru. His new powers, although very destructive, come in quite useful in situations like we faced there.” Barnaby nodded in agreement, though something nagged at the back of his mind. “Thank you for talking with me, I'm sorry to have wasted your time.” “You know I always enjoy our visits, Barnaby, but I promise I'm taking good care of Wild Tiger.” Sipping a dry red wine, Barnaby sat glaring at the computer screen before him. It wasn't that he didn't trust Maverick, but something just seemed off. Maybe it was the fact that Kotetsu hadn't been in contact with anyone, not even his family or Lopez in almost three months since being reassigned. Or maybe it was just his own selfishness in wanting to satisfy his curiosity as to exactly what his former partner was doing. Looking up recent news on Peru yielded very little. Part of the rural region of the country had experienced a natural disaster, but there was no mention of a corps of NEXT arriving to assist survivors. Frustrated he shut down the search engine. Three months and nothing. Kotetsu was not the type of person to just leave and not keep some kind of contact. Laying back in the chair, Barnaby took gulp of his wine trying to think. When they had worked together, Kotetsu had called Kaede almost daily, sometimes more than once a day. From talking with Dr. Saito he'd discovered that the Kaburagi's had called Appollon repeatedly asking to speak with Kotetsu. Each time they were told he was out of the country and unavailable. It just didn't add up. Setting the glass down, he let out a heavy sigh. This was getting him nowhere. They had to let the squad come home to Sternbild sometime and then he'd find a way to talk to Kotetsu and make sure for himself that he was adjusting alright. Two weeks later he found himself standing before Judge Petrov for the first time since he'd become a Hero. “This is highly unusual for you Mr. Brooks.” Judge Petrov tilted his head to the side and Barnaby fought the urge to fidget under the piercing gaze. “I'd like to know what precipitated this . . . accident.” Blowing out a soft breath Barnaby readjusted his glasses. “First I would like to apologize to the court and to the citizens of Sternbild for my . . . oversight in this matter. It was not my intention to cause such structural damage.” Elegant eyebrows raised and Barnaby braced himself for the diatribe. “I appreciate your apology, but you did not answer my question Mr. Brooks. If I may point out, this is the first time you've ever appeared before me and I must say that you are the last Hero I expected to see regarding property damage.” “Y-yes sir. I-I . . . have no excuses for my actions.” “Then is there a reason?” Barnaby flinched subtly surprised by the Judge's keen perception. “Sir, I am ashamed to admit that I have been distracted lately.” “This is unfortunate Mr. Brooks. Please pay more attention in the future.” “Yes sir. Of course, sir.” Later that evening Barnaby was shocked to find an email waiting for him from one Yuri Petrov. Mr. Brooks, I would like to discuss your case further. If you are available please call and set up a time with my secretary. Petrov * * * The transport was dark, the occupants silently swaying with the movement of the vehicle as it traversed the uneven terrain. Kotetsu kept his eyes closed. It was the easiest way to avoid anyone noticing he was awake. The last thing he wanted to do was talk to any of the other NEXT in the squad. There was nothing to talk about. Most of the other men and women were as worn and exhausted as he was and chose not to speak either. For all of Maverick's supposed good intentions it was blatantly obvious that they were simply a mop up unit. No one had been able to combat them or even really slow them down in the three months since he'd joined. There is only so much conventional weaponry can do against super powered NEXT protected by space-age body armor and weaponry. He grunted softly as they were jostled particularly hard, the harness keeping him secured digging into his neck. Shifting back in the seat he looked up to see the man across from him staring at him. He smiled a bit lopsided, unsure what to do or say and looked back down. He knew in normal circumstances he would have said something witty or goofy to try and break the tension, but this situation was anything but normal. “You killed Mike.” Blinking Kotetsu looked up trying to make out the man's expression in the dim light. He didn't remember actually killing anyone, only . . . after and the bodies. “Eh . . . who?” “Mike McIvers, he was the guy with the electromagnetic power.” Kotetsu looked up and down the transport and spotted three empty seats. His chest suddenly felt tight, a sharp ache blossoming under his sternum. “I . . did?” “All he did was step in front of you and you literally took his head off.” There was a soft shuff of cloth and the man leaned forward as far as the harness would let him. “We might all be killers, but we don't kill our own.” “I-I . . . it-I can't control it-I never meant t-to . . .” He stuttered to a stop as the ache wound it's way up, choking him and making his eyes sting. “Whatever. You might be fucking invincible when you activate but we all now you ain't shit otherwise.” Kotetsu gulped trying not to let his dread get the better of him. He let his head drop until his chin rested on his chest. Tomoe . . . I failed. I'm a murderer, not a hero. How can I ever face Kaede or Barnaby again knowing what I've become? Maybe . . . maybe it's for the best that I don't return. Closing his eyes he felt the tears slip free. All those years working so hard to protect people and now he was reduced to this, someone that even other killers despised. There was nothing he could do about it, no way to stop himself. He'd tried, refusing to activate his powers and even trying to starve himself so that he was too weak to activate them, but Maverick had out maneuvered him at every turn. All it took as the simple shock collar and strapping him down at night with an IV drip and they'd kept him fed and forced him to activate when they needed him. It was humiliating and degrading on every level. He felt more like an attack dog, conditioned to perform when called upon. He'd never hated anyone in his life like he hated Albert Maverick. The man had literally taken everything from him. “Fuck you're such a cunt,” The man's gruff voice snapped him out of his thoughts. “If it wasn't for that stupid beard I'd think you really were a bitch.” Kotetsu reached up and wiped away the tears. “I'd think that being able to express some emotion other than anger would be a good thing in our situation.” “Fuck you.” There was a click and a snap and the shadowy figure lurched to his feet. Despite himself, Kotetsu pressed back against the side of the transport glancing around at the others. No one met his eyes some turning away while others watched with mild interest. Reaching up he fumbled with the clasp only to yelp in surprise as his arm was grabbed and pinned over his head. He turned his face away as hot breath on his cheek made his skin tingle unpleasantly. “You reek of blood, what did you do, bathe in it?” The question was growled in his ear making him flinch. He gasped as his hair was grabbed by thick rough fingers, his head thudding against the metal behind him. Blinking away stars he glared up at the man. Dark eyes under heavy brows regarded him with something just shy of hatred. “What do you want?” He managed from between clenched teeth. “I want to see you bleeding. I'd like to kill you like you did Mike, but that won't solve anything now will it?” Unable to suppress the shudder, Kotetsu tried to pull away from the larger man, but the grip on his wrist tightened until his was nearly writhing with the pain. “You think I don't wish I could have stopped myself! I don't get to choose when I activate!” Kotetsu was ashamed to realize he'd raised his voice and took a breath trying to get himself back under some semblance of control. “You see this collar?” He gestured to it with his free hand, careful not to touch it. “That's how they make me activate. I don't want to be there, I hate what they make me do, but right now I have no choice.” “There is always a choice.” The man informed him. “None of us want to be here, I'm sure most of us have other things we'd much rather be doing, but we chose this for one reason or another.” The grip in his hair lessened and a brief flicker of hope sprang up. As much as it pained him to admit it the man was right. He had his reasons for choosing this over the other option Maverick had given him. Though now it didn't seem like the better path. If he'd went with lifetime incarceration at least he wouldn't be a murderer. Either way it seemed that the chances of ever seeing his family or Barnaby again were slim and getting slimmer each day he was gone. They probably don't even notice I'm not there. It's not like I was that involved in Kaede's life as it was and Bunny . . . “You ignoring me?” Fingers tightened and his head was wrenched to the side, exposing his neck in a way that had panic surging through him. “N-no! No, I was just thinking that-that you are right.” His voice trailed off as he found himself pinned by the dark expression in the man's eyes. The subtle red glow was just enough to illuminate the small space around them. “D-don't do this!” Kotetsu pleaded with the man his eyes wide as he shoved against the massive chest with his free hand. He had no idea what this man's power was or what might happen if he used it in the small space. “Calm down Eric!” “Shit dude, don't activate here! You'll kill us all!” “Calm it down back there or I'll tranq you Martin. Sit your ass down!” Kotetsu bit back a yelp as his head was slammed back again, the glowering presence of the other man fading. Gingerly rubbing the back of his head he kept his eyes on the floor. Letting the muttered comments of the other passengers wash over him he tried not to think too hard about the encounter. It was difficult when he could still feel the man glaring at him from across the narrow aisle. The red glow faded once again leaving the transport in darkness.

Break . I need a break from reality, Your eyes have a hold on me, Everything slips away, As you spin me around, You hold me tight, As we move with the light, My heart races, As we get lost in the music, You are so smooth, What can I do, But to fall for you, You laugh gently in my ear, And I am left without a care, If only this moment could last, You whisper my name, I will never be the same, You hold me tight, As we move with the light, Everything slips away, As you spin me around, I'm left without a sound. This next one is Aoi's b-day poem . Sorry its late ^^ . Lights Fall . Lights fall from the sky, You have me so high, Make a wish, For a kiss, As I caress your lips, Take my hand, Let us run, Life can be fun, Don't stop to think, Only to blink, It can all end, With a single grain of sand, Laugh, Cry, Dance, Smile , You are an isle, I am the wind, Against your skin, Lights fall from the sky, Together we can fly.

"Les Sciences et les Fantaisies" by Tojitsuki Hajime. I liked this little story.

Dorian stopped - in the corner tied to a steel ring in the wall was Elric's cousin. It was clear that he'd been tortured and probably raped as well. - What the hell is going on here? He turned to Elric and flinched. Elric was radiating pure panic and rage. This was not good. The air in the room was becoming charged and objects were swaying and dancing on the table tops. - Elric ....My prince.... Stop this now, it will be of no help to Henry if you blow the walls out with your rage. Elric reached out and gently touched Henry's bloody face. His first real glimpse of his beloved and it was like this. Though he knew this small body so well he'd never seen it with his eyes and now all he could do was try not to roar with rage. He slipped his arms around henry's battered body and gently lifted it to his chest. - Henry, HENRY Dorian put his hand on his Princes shoulder - Calm yourself - take a breath and let us see what we can do for him. Elric paused and drew in a breath. Dorian was right Henry needed him to be calm. At that moment there was a small snuffling sound. - Elric I can't breath you are holding me too tightly. It hurts. Elric eased his hold on Henry and looked down. Henry was looking up at him, his beautiful dark eyes filled with tears. - I'm here Elric it's alright. Elric stared into those eyes, he could hardly believe that Henry was alive with all that blood. - It looks worse than it is - I promise Elric - it's not that bad. Elric thought for a moment that he would faint so great was his relief. Thank the heavens he thought thank the heavens that he is not dead. - Can you move? - I think so. This was followed by a small moan as Henry tried to sit up. Panic washed over Elric again and he lifted Henry and placed him gently on the tangled sheets of the bed. - Rest here for a moment - are you still bleeding? Where are you hurt? where is the pain? Henry laughed and then groaned again. - Stop Elric you're making me laugh and it really hurts. Dorian had moved toward the limp body hanging from the iron ring. - Damian? Damian? He knelt next to the boy and felt for a pulse. It was there but very faint. - Elric, we need to get Damian to the healer as soon as possible, he is badly hurt. Elric ignored Dorian. Gently touching Henry all over looking for injuries. - Ah here it is - a knife wound perhaps more than one. it's still bleeding. We need to hurry. Dorian released Damian picking him up he hurried toward the open door. - Lets go. The Aftermath Henry was resting his head on Elric's lap as the healer worked on his knife wounds. - My Prince - I believe that this was not an attempt on this child's life. Henry snorted - stop calling me a child. I am a man! The healer ignored the boy and motioned Elric to follow him from the room. Elric gently eased Henry back to the pillows. - I'll return shortly Henry, please just rest here and stop giving the healers such a hard time. Henry glared at them as they walked away. - A child.....He shouldn't be calling me a child ...... Humph He looked toward the part of the room where Damian was being worked on - shuddering, he tried not to think about what would have happened if Elric and his guard had not come pounding down the hallway when they did, he had been next, the thought was terrifying. He tried to remember what the horrible man had looked like but each time he tried he got faint. What had that man said again? He had told him to deliver a message to Elric - what was it again? Suddenly Henry felt sleepy closing his eyes he slipped into a deep sleep, dreaming of that man and what he had told him to do. When Elric returned he nearly panicked - Henry was so still and pale. Moving swiftly he knelt next to the bed his hands framing Henry's tired face. It felt a bit feverish, the cheeks flushed, the lips slightly parted. he stopped and stared, blushing when he realized what he'd been thinking. - How could THAT come into my mind at a time like this? But oh how delicious Henry looked, good enough to take a bite. His fingertip traced the full red lips, he bent his head and kissed those sweet lips, brushing them with his tongue. Henry did not stir but his breathing quickened - a soft sigh that may have been Elric's name escaping. Elric thought his heart might burst with love for this beautiful young man. He jumped slightly as a small hot hand slipped into his shirt, Henry smiled. - Oh My Prince you thought you could just kiss me and I wouldn't wake? He laughed a bit shrilly and dug his hot fingers into Elric's chest. - Ow Henry that hurt - what are you doing? Are you alright? He drew back and looking at Henry's face He realized that Henry's eyes as empty as a sleep walkers. Before he could react Dorian had lifted Henry out Elric's arms and was holding him above the bed. - He has been charmed my Prince, use your magic to wake him or I will lop off his head. Elric was speechless, Dorian shook the now limp body slightly - Hurry - he may wake as a changeling again - clearly he was charmed to hurt you when you least expected it. - But what if he is no longer in there? For heavens sake don't hurt him until I figure this out. Elric reached out with his magic and felt for the charm holding his beloved. - ah there it is. Very strong this is, I'm not sure I can rid him of it without help. He gathered his power calling his elementals to help, reaching out with his mind he pushed, hard. He felt the charm give but only slightly. - Damn this was put in place by a very powerful sorcerer - He again gathered his forces and this time shoved with all his strength finally feeling the charm slip and break. Dorian dropped the limp body into Elric arms and moved off grumbling to himself about willing fools.

Chapter 01 Sky Mall - The largest shopping mall in the country. It has an area of almost two thousand square feet, accommodating to more than two hundred shops, providing a wide range of shops. On the third floor situates IT Place where YJ works, selling varieties of multimedia software and video games. As usual on this day, YJ went to the mall’s pantry, carrying an empty pail for water. "Hey! I’m telling you, that’s enough!" "What’s wrong! Getting angry when we’re fooling around? Meanie!" "You spoiled brat! Want me to teach you a lesson huh!" On the way back to the shop, YJ noticed a group of punks outside the Arcade, fooling around. He had originally intended to ignore them, until one of them almost bang on him suddenly. While dodging them, YJ could not balance the pail of water he was carrying. Not only did the water splashed all over the floor, his pants were drenched as well. "These damn punks!" YJ cursed silently in mind. YJ raised his head, mercilessly stared at them. He murmured “Idiots” as he walks pass them, back to the shop. Those words were not heard by any of the punks, but a man who walked pass YJ briefly did. Back in the shop, YJ still looks irritated. This surprises his colleague as he always feels that YJ is a good temper person. "What’s wrong, YJ? Did someone bother you?" "Those punks outside did. Not only did I spill water on the floor but on my pants as well." Although he’s saying words of anger, but his delicate face show no hint of his wroth. "Oh... So that was why. Don’t get angry over them. Punks are punks, you said so too." "…" YJ kept quiet. I heard that our shop was not located here previously, but on the opposite side. I heard that it was a gift shop here previously. Wonder how the previous owner put up with these people. Although he have been working here for almost a year, but YJ was still unable to adapt to the presence of this group of punks. Forget it! I should really stop thinking about it! === === === === === === === === === === === === === === "I’m going to the washroom." "Sure! Just don’t be gone for too long!" YJ saw the group of punks the moment he steps out of his shop. What’s keeping them here? It has been three hours and yet they are still around?! YJ decided to ignore them, but was wondering how he could walk pass the group. At this time, he realized that the punks gave way for him to walk through. Is this an apology for just now? Well, since they have taken a step back, I shall be magnanimous! I shall forgive you this time round, little punks! When YJ exits from the washroom, he spotted a “Germany Flag” standing among the punks almost immediately. It was the first time in his life that he had seen such combination of colour – on the hair. The ends are yellow, or golden, the middle is fire red, and the top of the head is black. Not everyone is suitable to such colours but surprisingly, it fits the guy well! There is only one word that can describe those who choose such combinations – Cool! He’s one of them, isn’t he? He looked pretty close with those guys, he was here quite often too and they are always mixing together. As YJ reaches the Arcade, their eyes met and that 'cool guy' suddenly flew into a panic, he even took out his cell phone, pretending to be answering a call. "Ho..." YJ gently smiled. Was he being shy. . . Uh. . . What was I thinking?! Forget it forget it forget it! The next day, that guy appeared with the punks outside the Arcade again. The strange thing is, today, “he” brought the group of punks into the store where YJ is working at. "Have you played this game yet? My friend told me it was damn fun!" "Which on is it... Ah? This?! Oh please! This is the worse-game-EVER! The character looks fake, the scene are unrealistic, even the effect sucks! And you friend liked it?! He better work on his taste! " "Hey! How could you say that about my friend?! You’re asking for some bashing huh!" Those punks’ voices were too loud, so irritating! YJ was frowning all the way since they entered the store. "You guys are irritating! Get out now!" YJ raised his eye as someone raises their voice. It was “him”. It seems like he’s really their leader there… All the punks did as what they were told and obediently left the shop quietly. Though they were grateful, but YJ and his colleague had difficulty understanding that. Shouldn’t he be accustomed to all this since they spend so much time with each other! Why would he still be annoyed by them? Leaving YJ puzzling with this question in mind, ever since the day, whenever YJ steps outside of the shop, as long as he runs into the group of punks, they will immediately keep quiet. Not only will they be silent, but when they block his way, they would even make a path for him walk through. The world is. . . Changing? This situation continued until one day, something happened… That day, YJ’s colleague had something urgent to attend to so he left work early, leaving YJ for closing alone. Just when he was about to close his shop, he heard a burst of quarrels outside. "If you did it, admit it!! Do act like a bastard denying everything!" A familiar voice! Seems to be. . . That person's voice! "Seems like you didn’t get enough bashing yet huh! Guys, do it!" Subsequently, YJ saw a group of people ran hastily across the shop, and behind them, was another group of people chasing them. Would that guy be alright? I. . . I think I better stay out of it, or else, I may even get implicated… On the thought of that, YJ quickly turn off the lights, getting ready to close the shop. Just before he locks his door, he suddenly felt a powerful push behind him, forcing him – and someone else – into the store. "Wow – Mmmhmmm… " YJ wanted to say something, but his mouth was covered by someone. "Don’t make a sound, please." That is. . . That person's voice! He. . . After realizing it was that guy, YJ hurriedly broke of the restriction, rushed to the front door of the shop, and locked them from the inside. As he heard the dialogue outside the door, he did not turn on the lights. "Damn! Where are those guys?!" "Boss! We should go! The cops are here!" Shortly, it was another burst of hasty footsteps. Until he confirmed that calm was restored outside, YJ then got up to turn on the lights. When the lights are up, YJ saw that ‘that guy’ was pretty badly injured. He did not say anything, just looked at 'him' for once, and walk into the staff room and came out with a First-Aid kit. "Do not touch your wounds! You might get a bacterial infection!" Upon stepping out of the staff room, YJ saw that ‘he’ was about to use his hands to clean off the blood by his mouth. He shouted loudly – and suddenly - that 'that man' cannot help but look perplexing. "You just finished a fight; the hands could be filled with bacteria. I will help you clean up the wound, and next, the medication. It might hurt, just bear with it." For that reason, 'he' sat obediently while YJ applies medication for him. "Sorry to troubled you…" As he was focusing on attending to the wounds, YJ heard and raised his eyes, meeting the passionate eyes of ‘his’. YJ couldn’t help but shudder a little. "It’s… It’s nothing…” He shifts his glance back to the wounds as he spoke. "I'm sorry. Oh, and thank you for saving me." "I can’t just stood by and watch." Wh... What am I saying it! Why didn’t I just reply with ‘you’re welcome’. That line was redundant! "Ho… By the way, I forgot to introduce myself, I’m SWD, you?" "WYJ." "Oh... A nice name... Anyway, I was..." That was the first conversation between them. They had a long talk, and talk about almost everything. YJ, who was supposed to leave at 10pm did not realize the time, until the mall's security personnel came for a routine inspection that they usually do after 1am. So, they left the mall together, back to their home. The next day, two punks suddenly walked into YJ’s shop. He had intended to ignore them, but they were looking rather sneaky. So he walked up to offer ‘assistance’. "Can I help you?” "Tell him!" "You tell him!" "No! You tell him!" Eventually, YJ got tired of waiting so he asked impatiently. "What do you need to tell me?!" If it was before, YJ would have chosen to ignore them and try not to clash with them. But after yesterday's disturbances, he thought there’s nothing else he needs to be afraid of! "Uh… Uh... This... This is for you..." Punk A placed a bag on the table, "This is from Justin." He then turned around and pushes Punk B out. "Go go go go!" Looking at the bag on the table, YJ was dumbfounded. "Huh? Why is there food here? Who bought this?" YJ’s colleague who just came out of the staff room asked. "Justin..." "Justin? Justin who?" "Actually... I do not know myself..." Justin. . . Justin. . . Who is this Justin?! "Wow! It’s abalone porridge!" Unlike YJ who is still in daze, his colleagues had opened up the bag to see what’s in it. "Oh?!" So costly. . . Who could he be. . . "Let’s eat together! The portion seems pretty big anyway..." "Really?! Wow! Thanks!!" To be Continued...

A.N.: I write chapters that stubbornly insist they'll come later instead of right now – when I need them. I have like seven or more chapters written on the computer, and the devil knows how many more drabbles scratched on paper, but I keep having to write the next after the ones I post because new ideas pop and there's always something I have to add and change and connect and stuff. My cats are stupid and I'm out of cigarettes. As I said before this is my first fan fiction and so, this one is also my first time writing an intimate scene; so bear with me. Also, I'm wondering since the first chapter if I'm being able to write the characters, at least a bit, well… in character. So tell me what you think, I'd appreciate it. Feel free to criticize; I enjoy criticizing and receiving critiques. (: CHAPTER II (part one) Gulp It Down; Lick Your Lips Clean Chapter rating: M, for language and sexual situations.

It’s time for you and Writer’s Block to part ways. Write a letter breaking up with Writer’s Block, starting out with, “Dear Writer’s Block, it’s not you, it’s me … .” Post your response (500 words or less) Dear Writer’s Block, It’s not you, it’s me. And while staring at the screen for hours with nothing to write was fun. I’m going to have to let you go. But hey, don’t be sad you will always have the memories. Late night headaches, the time I threatened to throw my keyboard, and a good game of angry birds. Oh those were the days! But don’t you worry about me I have a date with the hottest twins in town, Creative and Inspiration. Unlike you they come headache free and always have good ideas to give me. In fact I know I will be so much happier with them. I been waiting a long time to say this but ha I am free! Your shackles will no longer hold me down. Don’t call me, don’t even look my way! If our paths never cross again I will be delighted. What’s that? I sound bitter? I have every right to be. Take a good look at yourself no one wants you.

Another writing prompt . A friend knocks on your door. Her father has had a heart attack and she must leave town immediately to visit—only problem is she needs someone to watch over her very unusual pet. Post your response (500 words or less) I went over ^^;; 18 but o well . Half awake I open the door. “Please it’s an emergency can you take care of my pet? “ I run my fingers through my messy hair “What’s going on Angie ?” “Dad had a heart attack.” She says her voice shaking. Tears run down her face as she looks up at me “Please you’re the only one I can trust. “ I sigh “Just what kind of pet are we talking about? “ She smiles “Good so you will help ! “ Before I could say no she drags me out of my house to her house across from me . I begin to have second thoughts as we step into her house. My whole being is telling me to run away. “Angie …” She ignores my pleading look “ Now here’s my cell only call if it’s a emergency .” How bad can it be I tell myself it’s only a pet . As she slips out the door she yells back “ His food is in the fridge . “ “Make sure he gets plenty! Curious I open the fridge and to my disgust it is filled with blood bags. Maybe my friend is crazy this surely can’t be his food . To calm my nerves I walk around the house searching for her pet . “ Here kitty kitty “ “Here doggy doggy or whatever you are . “ One moment I’m calling out the next I am laid out on the floor with strong hands around my neck . “Who are you ? “ He hisses . I look back at the blood red eyes in amazement beside the strange eyes above me is the most handsome man I have ever seen. “Pet sitter. “ I mumble. “Can I have my neck back please? “ He growls but lets go . “Worthless woman I told her I could manage on my own. “ “Who are you ? “ I say as I finally get my strength back. He stands me up and looks me up and down curiously. “The pet .” he says disgusted . He leans in and whispers into my ear “Your kind call me a vampire. “ My heart starts to beat rapidly and my hands begin to sweat. How can this be ? “Oh I get it ! “ “This is just all a elaborate prank .” “Vampire yeah right ! “ A roar of laughter escapes my lips and I slap the man on the back . “ Good one .” He lifts me up with ease stopping my laughter and lays me out on the couch. As he hoovers over me I am frozen not even a cry can escape my lips. He whispers into my ear “Let me show how real I am. “ My eyes go wide as his fangs come out. He lifts my finger to touch one with a gentle touch blood flows from my finger. He smiles as he watches me become filled with fear. “You smell delicious.” He purrs. Slowly he leans in and sinks his fangs into my flesh .
