A multi-level telepath is sentenced to living death, and her rescue is not precisely textbook. Life, death, life and a drop into a volcano.
Skiria has been funnelling files out of the capitol for years, hiding those who can pass for standard, talentless folks. Her telepathy got her a position in the government, but it also put her on their radar, and when they needed someone to fill a vacancy, she was hauled out of her apartment and given a promotion.
Tied down and given a sedentary position to keep Resicor from rising and claiming an Avatar, Skiria is slowly dying. When she finally succumbs, she is disposed of in the most direct fashion and swept off world for a mission that she doesn’t understand. All in a day’s work. Views: 37
Gavin had just turned eighteen and graduated from high school. He had a huge decision weighing heavy on him. What was he going to do with his future? His father had been convinced since the day he was born that he was going to take over the family business. Both of his parents were software developers, and their company was doing very well. There was only one problem. Gavin couldn't stand software development and wanted no part of the company. He wanted to join the service to help people and keep his family and the rest of the country safe. The only thing he had to do was find a way to tell his parents. Gavin stood up and looked down the table at all of the people he loved. There were five families, and between them, they owned seven houses on one stretch of a Hawaiian beach. It was their last night there, and Gavin knew he needed the support of everyone around him when he told his parents what he'd chosen to do with his life. He instantly saw concern cross his mom's face, but he had to do it. There was no going back. "I'm joining the service," he said. It didn't take long for his father to get to his feet and all of the chatter to fill the empty space between them. "I'm joining too," Gavin's best friend Jack announced. By the time everyone calmed down and both of their families accepted their decisions, Gavin was beginning to feel a little better about things. There was only one person that wasn't going to let it go that easily. That person was Gracie. Gavin was taking her brother, and that was not okay. When Jack told Gracie he wanted her to write to Gavin each time she wrote to him, she was not happy. Gracie was going to write him, but she wasn't going to make it easy. Little did Gracie and Gavin know that those letters were going to change their lives forever.** Views: 37

A Terran Times Tale
Billie has worked for peace and harmony as
an Enforcer, but she wants to kick the butt of the man who has the nerve to
demand her as his own.
Billie first met the love of her life when
she was working for the Alliance, but he transferred from her unit, and he was
out of her life. Two years later, she is on an assignment to recruit more
Enforcers of the Oefric species. Their instincts, shifting abilities and love
of order make them ideal officers.
Arcros knew that he could not remain in
the same unit as his Terran. He wouldn’t be able to control himself if she was
near him and that was a dereliction of duty he was not going to court. Three
years later, his people finally admit that he has already chosen his mate and
he is allowed to send for her. The Alliance wants twenty warriors in exchange
for the woman, and Arcros believes that he is getting the best part of that
deal.
