This was the first time Olivia ventured out in public again since that forsaken virus had shut her powers down. It had taken a while for them to be back completely and until she was certain that her mutation worked the way it was supposed to be she had tried to stay in her room as much as possible.

Part of her, albeit a very small one, had been glad ( Read more... )

It had started with a headache. Daken had woken up and felt like someone had taken a jackhammer to the inside of his head all night. That had been most unusual to being with, but not unheard of. With heightened senses, some sensory overload was to be expected at certain points. With all the stubbornness of a true feral, he simply ignored it and ( Read more... )

Everyday life at the base was still as boring as ever, not even the news that they could possibly leave to head for that small town could cheer Liv up.

After burning her clothes and washing for what felt like hours -and the blood was still somewhat in her hair- Emma at last got a chance to actually take in the damage around her. It took a day and a half to fully assess it. Jefferson dorm was closed due to the fire damage, gaping holes that Emma was not pleased about, the electrical wiring on the ( Read more... )

The power was out. In a place like this, the power wouldn't just go out without good reason. And even then? There'd be a back-up generator for occasions like this. Which meant that something was seriously wrong. Haylie was having another bout of insomnia due to energy build-up once again, which meant she was awake and doing push-ups on the floor of ( Read more... )

When Lorna got stressed, she ate. When Lorna got bored, she painted her nails, rearranged her clothes, alphabetised her books before moving them back to preference, organised her socks, sorted her shoes, called her friends and possibly, if she was still looking for something to do after all that, she would read one of her books ( Read more... )
