[from here]Readying himself, Archer cracked the door open and peered inside, his vision aided by his flashlight. It looked clear so far, but that didn't mean anything. Monsters in Landel's always seemed to have the advantage, getting the drop on unsuspecting victims no matter how aware they were ( Read more... )

[from here]As soon as Archer entered the room, his first thought was how dull this place was, but on the other hand, it was the perfect place for an ambush. The room was dark and filled with rows of cabinets. A monster could be lurking anywhere. At least that's what he initially thought. Keeping his sword at the ready, he moved through the room, ( Read more... )

She didn't waste time crossing the next hall. Even empty, it was foreboding. Moving carefully, she quickly crossed to the other side.

It might look funny when someone slipped in the movies, but it'd be pretty pathetic if a heroic spirit met his doom by falling down and breaking his neck. How would he face ( Read more... )

[ From here]The final hall was vacant, something that Near found unsurprising at this point. He was no less cautious as he and Brooklyn moved forward, however, not willing to underestimate activity of creatures he hadn't studied with potentially fatal results. He moved slowly, searching the darkness with his eyes, listening for any movements other ( Read more... )
