He shifted his gaze from her to Kerberos. “Can you get him to follow commands?” “He really isn’t that kind of dog.” The look Kerberos gave Ben from his center head, steady with a bit of lip curl to displayContinue reading “Enter The Woods – 8:24”

Enter The Woods – 8:18
8:18 “It’s Magick? How the birds work?” Patti looked at Ivan and shook her head. “Of course it’s Magick. You just explained to me with some detail that it’s Magick.” “I mean, its your Magick, right?” A huge grin came from somewhere deep inside Patti, curving her lips even as it buoyed her spirit. “IContinue reading “Enter The Woods – 8:18”

8:15 Prairie had barely set her feet down on the lush growth of the garden stretching beyond the window she and Siobhan stepped into before she planted her hands on her hips and glared back through the opening. Siobhan, for her part, goggled at the garden, her mind having trouble taking in the wealth ofContinue reading “Enter The Woods – 8:15”
Enter The Woods – 8:14
8:14 “Bird book rose painting mirror; mirror painting rose book bird. Bird book rose painting mirror; mirror painting rose book bird. Patti.” Patti stepped out of the window with the bird, shoving her hands through her hair. Sass, perched on her shoulder gave her the eye when her hand almost disrupted the mouse’s perch. PattiContinue reading “Enter The Woods – 8:14”

8:13 Dan was totally fucked. This was not a phrase that came easily to the usually taciturn man. He prided himself on being resolute. The calm in the storm. The steady hand on the trigger. So, it took a lot for him to say he was totally fucked. He started out calm enough. Cool even.Continue reading “Enter The Woods – 8:13”

8:12 Patti, Abe, and Dan returned to the center of the maze first. They wandered the circumference of the room, stopping in front of each of the closed windows. Book, bracelet, bird, hard, ribbons. Pausing in front of each, they stared like their focus could help them see past the colored glass. “Did he getContinue reading “Enter The Woods – 8:12”

8:11 For the twentieth time or so, Kim walked a few steps into the maze, straining her senses while retaining her grip on her Magick so it didn’t automatically reach for Air. “I think I hear someone!” Patti heaved a sigh and gently stroked Sass’s head. She’d pulled the mouse out of its house atContinue reading “Enter The Woods – 8:11”
Enter The Woods – 8:10
8:10 “Wow.” Walking into the room at the center of the maze Kim got why Patti immediately exclaimed that as soon as she entered. It was a room. Not a clearing or a garden or anything else like that. The grass from the paths gave way to a sweeping black and white marble floor. TheContinue reading “Enter The Woods – 8:10”
Enter The Woods – 8:9
8:9 Running into the maze, Siobhan nearly smacked into Kim’s back where she stood just inside the entryway. An alchemy light bobbed out of the dark to the right, revealing Ben in its uneven glow. “I say we go left.” Siobhan threw a look back over her shoulder, her gaze going to where those leftContinue reading “Enter The Woods – 8:9”
Enter The Woods – 8:8
8:8 Dropping back around the corner Siobhan and she had barely cleared, Kim flicked her wrist, calling a fireball into existence in the palm of her hand and illuminating the path behind them. Her “damn!” was instinctive, popping out of her subconscious as the creature came ambling down the long path towards them. What approachedContinue reading “Enter The Woods – 8:8”
