Becoming the Eagle [TF]The Avian Way

Jason was uneasy.

This was somewhat of an understatement. Having been left on his own by his allies on an alien planet, and with no idea how to operate the ship to get home again, in a mission that seemed increasingly suspicious the more he thought about it, it seems increasingly likely that uneasy was the baby cousin of the word needed to describe how he felt.

Maybe terrified?

Nah, terrified wasn't really accurate, it wasn't like he was sobbing in fear. Jason had never really been terrified of anything. Perhaps... lost. Lost and alone, with all that that entailed.

Six months ago, Jason had been chosen to go on an expeditio

Each to Each"Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a peach?
I shall wear white flannel trousers, and walk upon the beach.
I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.

I do not think that they will sing to me.

I have seen them riding seaward on the waves
Combing the white hairs of the waves blown back
When the wind blows the water white and black

We have lingered in the chambers of the sea
By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown
Till human voices wake us, and we drown."
-excerpt from "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by T. S. Eliot

It was Maria’s turn to feed Sessyne.
She was nervous as she made her way down the metal, spiral stairway leading to the lower levels of the floating research facility and colony where she lived. She knew well enough that this day would eventually come, and her name would be selected to visit the home of the Ichthyian who lived in the bottom le

Something's got to Give

Gordon Martin lay on the bed that had been the center of his world for the last few months. At least he thought it had been months. There were no windows and no clocks in his room, so he wasn’t sure the exact amount of time that had passed. To the left of the bed was the desk that he ate his meals at. To the right was the commode and sink. And at the end of the bed was the bell cord. He couldn’t go further than that due to the collar attached to a chain around his neck. The room wasn’t uncomfortable. It was kept clean and he was fed well, but that didn’t change the fact it was a prison.

He sat up and looked at the cor

Peace for Lonely Monsters: Mercy

The sounds of laughing children filled his ears. They were playing and laughing as children should. It always softened his hearts to hear children being children, enjoying their childhood before they learnt the cold harsh reality of the universe.

He lowered his head, averting his green-grey eyes, so often filled with sadness and loneliness at times. He couldn’t help but let the negative thoughts seep in. After more than, [a thousand was it? He’d lost count by now] centuries of seeing so many people die, both good and bad, he couldn’t help it. No matter how much he wanted to. Death was never to far from his mind, nor was it

It Only has to Happen OnceA large, green creature zipped through the sky. It had four wings, which flapped independently, calmly making its way through the iron jungle, past all the tall buildings. She wore an old shirt with two holes cut in the back for her upper wings which fluttered in the wind, and her hair fluttered as she calmly drifted through the cloudless morning.

With a flap, she closed her wings and latched on to the side of an old building, holding herself up using her hands and her frontal legs’ talons, with three front-pointing fingers and one large thumb pointing back, all with small claws on them. Her rear leg’s feet were more similar to t

Legend of Earth: Chapter 5: Destiny Discovered

Tom carried on walking further into the woods now that the danger had passed for him. Andrew was gone, as well as the ash bear. Tom could think of only one thing, the ash bear must be chasing Andrew still. Tom immediately started running, determined to find his endangered friend. The jungle seemed to go on forever, and the further he ran the further the ground became damper. He could see rain clouds ahead of him, passing away. If Andrew was running this way, then there was chance he would slip and get caught! Tom ran as fast as his new legs would carry him. He bombed through the jungle like an athlete, his mechanical legs effortlessly boundin

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Everyone in the Decker Room, maybe even in the entire police station, jumped at the loud and lengthy cry.

“What was that!?” Toudou barked.

“That was Deckerd!” Yuuta gasped. “I’ve never heard him scream like that before.”

Flitting Through the CosmosReaka had a mantra: 'Always call their bluff.' It didn't matter what the stakes were or whether they beat you anyway. All that mattered was that they had misjudged you.

And that was exactly how she ended up in this situation, hurtling through the cosmos in the cumulative efforts of the best and brightest of Earth's rocket scientists and engineers. They'll never go through with it, she had thought, It's far too risky to waste the equipment.

Well she had been wrong about that.

She swiped at a few dials and tried to ignore all the warning lights that were flashing at her. It was probably worth it. A guy that pretty needs to be enjoyed more th

CAMERON MEETS STAR (Dragon Vore)(Warning: Vore and near digestion)

Ally, a purple dragoness with a white underbelly, had left Dragon City every day for a week to see her human friend, Cameron. Star, a white dragoness and Ally's step-sister, had noticed her absense and decided to follow her. Ally flew to a forest were her and Cameron usually met and landed. Star landed nearby and hid behind some trees. 'What is Ally doing?' Star thought. The she saw Cameron walk through some bushes and over to Ally. "Hey, Ally," Cameron said, "Want to have lunch?" "You mean you?" Ally joked and started licking him. "No. I meant, would like some fish," he said, "Then me." Ally smiled and sai

Happy birthday Merrit!"What could be worse in the morning after the holiday?" Thought Lorraine Shepard, slowly regaining consciousness. She slowly and cautiously opened her eyes, squinting in the sunlight that dazzled even through the louvers, and barely made herself sit in the bed.

The room was in complete chaos, things were scattered all around: the clothes lying crumpled piles on the floor, bed sheet pricked from crumbs… and the air was so resistant fume that even wide open window could not help it.

The snoring pile of rags at her left gave up still living partner, Shepard didn`t deny herself a pleasure to lift the blanket and watch Kaidan, the sight w

The SwordIt was a cool, moonlit night. A full moon was out, and upon the hill outside of the outskirts of town, a scene quietly unfolded.

A child, a boy not even fifteen, stood with his back to a slightly larger creature, both of them frozen in terror.

That boy and the girl, draconic in species and centaurical in physique, stood frozen in space before the great monstrosity before them, with eyes red in flaming rage and a snout snorting steam. It was like a gorilla, anvil-like fists pounded against the ground as it’s rear hooves pushed it forward, advancing in a charge. It must have been twelve feet tall as it rose up, the great angry minotaur

Your Royal GooglenessLet’s travel into the sky. Funny, really, even when man has lived on Earth for about 2 millenia and 70 years, they never thought to look up into the clouds. Among the mist and water, an elegant boarding school appears, about twice the size of a normal castle. BUSINESS BILLIONAIRES FOR THE BRILLIANT, an iron pegged sign states, swinging lonely near the guttering lanterns. Inside the massive school are hundreds of thousands of students, each one representing a company, such as Pottery Barn or even The New York Times.
But only the highest, top achievers of the elite ever dream to have a worldwide successful branch that the humans use often, the class named ‘Outstanding Achievers’, where we now must go. There are a handful of students in the classroom, dead silent excepting for the scritch scratch of frosted glass pencils meeting levitation paper. But our story starts with the girl in the far corner of the room. No, not the one with silver robes and brown hair, we

Souda-Sleep With the EerieVillainous AnimalBreederIt was the night when Monobear, the so called ‘headmaster’ of their friendship making field trip’s speech was still fresh in everyone’s minds. It was around Night Time, which made it even more significant, because no one could sleep. The one that seemed most afraid was Souda, who had a spazz attack whenever someone tried to start a conversation with him (after knowing about the true meaning of the field trip. Mutual killing…). It was around midnight, and Souda was snooping around out of his room, knowing the consequences of doing so, but needed someone to be around so he wouldn’t be as afraid. He tried kno

I want to be a Wolf, Rufus. “…June 4th, 5456, Atlanta, Alabama.”
That’s right. You heard me. I lived in Atlanta, Alabama. Atlanta used to just be in Georgia. But in the last few centuries, it had expanded into other states, like Alabama. That’s where I lived.
“Desire of Transformation,” my dog, Rufus, said. Rufus 101 is a robot that looks, moves, sounds, and even smells like a real dog. But he’s not. He’s a robot assistant.
“Wolf.” I said instantly. All my life, I had wanted to be a wolf. Now, at age 18, I was allowed to do so. The president of the TransAnimal Company promises you&rsq

Warriors: The Darkness Within (Test) Prologue

...

There were no stars, only darkness and the smell of death. The shadows danced in between the trees and in and out of the bushes. A young kit was walking along, next to a larger, older warrior. He was not more than a moon, was large for his age. His eyes were a brilliant olive, the only brightly shining things that were visible.

The older tom signaled to the kit with his tail. "Are you okay?" He made no move to turn around, but slowed his pace. "I know this might be a long walk for a kit of your age."

The kit, though tired, refused to act as such. "I'm fine, Lightningstripe." He lied. "Where are we again?"

"Wolfkit, stupidly pushing yourself past your limits will get you killed." The black tom scolded. "And we are GOING to a very special place for training."

"Right, father..." The young kit sighed. He knew better than to say anything else. He was just happy to see his father again! Lightningstripe had been CreekClan's deputy, and was to become Lightningstar when he was brutally murdered by his own father, the traitor Beechfur. That's what his mother, Snowleap had said. It had to be true because his father agreed. Wolfkit rubbed against Lightningstripe's hind leg. "I'm so glad you want to train me, Daddy."

Lightningstripe smiled, his red eyes shining. "I'm not going to train you myself, but I'll help. One of my very good friends and allies is going to train you. He's a true warrior. He was even a clan leader!"

Wolfkit's eyes widened. "Wow! I'm going to be one strong warrior!" He lashed out like he was attacking a rival warrior. "Just like you!"

His father laughed. "We'll see." He turned into a patch of bushes, and they entered a clearing. A white tom with gray patches was standing in the middle of the grass, waiting patiently. "Ah! There he is! Come over here with me, Wolfkit."

The two cats walked to the center or the clearing, stoping next to the stranger. Lightningstripe nudged Wolfkit forward. "This is my son,Wolfkit. He is my largest, strongest, and fastest. I think you'll be pleased with his performance."

Wolfkit gulped, and tried his best to stand tall. If this was the wise, strong leader, he was going to impress him the best he could. "I am Wolfkit. I am going to be the best warrior in all the clans!"

The white tom smiled. "I'm glad to see you are enthusiastic like this, Wolfkit. I can train you into a fine warrior with that attitude." He turns to Lightningstripe. "A wise decision. He will be all powerful."

Wolfkit grinned. This cat said he was powerful! "So, who will I fight first, Master?"

"Not so fast, young one. You have much to be taught, and we will not be fighting right away." He unsheathed his claws. "Oh, and my name is Cloudstar. Call me Cloudstar."
