Lukas leaned heavily on her, barely able to stand. Even under all the pain and exhaustion, a small smile formed. She had to be just as exhausted, she'd used her abilities to suppress his pain all night, all day, and still had more power to pump through the rest of the team for the fights. …

Homework
Day One "Get up, kiddo," he said softly, and not standing right next to her. Her reflexes were getting pretty good, especially when half awake. "Daaa. What time's it?" "Quarter of eight. Ya got fifteen mins ta be in the courtyard with yer PT gear on." "Daaaaa......WTF?" "Don't be late kiddo. It's test week. …
Compulsion
"It's goi' ta be mistake. Ya shou'd wait, cher'." "I told ya cher'. Now we down our leader for doin' sometin' stupid." He groaned as his body stirred in the dream. "I didn't want to say something in front of everyone but.....you should have waited Lukas." Shock shuddered through him. SHE thought he'd made a …
Not Again
He ran and he ran. Most of the time, running calmed the constant pressure of his mind. Now he ran with desperate purpose. The ringing of the phone had been the first clue that one of them tracked the wrong way. He trusted Chayton and his sense of smell. He may not know how strong …
An Affinity For Flowers
He'd taken longer than he'd meant while getting ready, especially with Allison waiting on him. Rarely did he feel......so mentally, maybe emotionally....not broken, but.....depleted. The last few days of constant pressure and action when they hadn't even had a day off from their return from under the sea and this.....whatever this looming horror on this …
A Night Together
The absolutely hottest girl he had ever met sat in his bed, back propped by pillows and wall as legs formed a small pyramid across his thighs. He strove to ignore the minor gasps and tremors he could feel emanate from her body as he slowly, methodically, sensually rubbed the body oil into her feet. …
Promises, Promises, Promises
The water rained down upon his upturned face, eyes closed enjoying the dual streams splashing against his body. For someone like him, a normal shower proved barely adequate to get clean, and impossible to enjoy when your head and shoulders rose high above the placement of the shower head. Someone planned ahead in designing this …
Causation
The conversation lagged as they all tucked into their food. Lukas only had thirty minutes for lunch, so quick Chinese food had been the choice. Neither Lukas nor Leilani had seemed thrilled with any of the options but she kind of missed the egg rolls here, and it had been six weeks since her detail …
Remembrance
". . . doesn't need to know tonight Dad." The voice was low, angry, sad.....echoing with unshed tears.....and maybe rage. Lindsay's voice. Dad's voice. "Tomorrow will be time enough Roger." Dziadek's stern voice. Weird dream......somehow he knew he was dreaming. He was dreaming right? Focus. Relax. Let the thoughts flow. "Take me to her, Dad." …

Shifting Sands
Port Hedland, Australia, Approximately Sixteen Years Ago It had been six months since she'd said yes, but he was leaving for Timor the next day. He'd wanted to get married before he left, but she'd argued that she wanted to be out of the army first, so, one last celebration before he left, a short …
Missing Home
Babcia, I have been thinking of you and JaJa the last few days. I didn't think I would ever miss the constant work at the ranch, especially in the fall as we all helped to drive the herds back to the lower grazing lands. But I do. I miss the smell of the coffee on …

A Beginning
October 31st, 1971, Nui Dat, Vietnam "Hey, new kid, pick it up mate. Caught an emergency exfil cover. Ready pad in five." "O' my way, Sergean'." The private flipped out of the cot, quickly putting his giggle-hat on his head, slipping on his flak jacket, and finally grabbing his M82 before sprinting out of the …
