Stealth lead Chel to a room that was obviously a bedroom. There were four bunks fit directly into the walls. The two lowest were actually beds, but only one was made up for sleeping with meticulous care. Judging by the oval shape in the center, Zeta probably used it more than Lexx did. The two [...]
War in the Sky (( Interim Story)) by Tiffany Ross “I don’t see a point to why we’re down here… ow.” Lexx stumbled over an exposed tree root. He wasn’t having a pleasant hike and the point of it really escaped him. There was not any logic in traipsing through a forest when the sun [...]
The cat turned back to the images, waving a white forepaw, “This is Lexx at about seventeen. It’s an AD Academy class,…” Halfway through her sentence, Lexx seemed to appear out of nowhere and slap his hand down on top of the viewer, turning it off. He stood there a moment, not looking at either [...]
On the other side of the door, Chel stood with Zeta at her side. He was staring at the door until Chel spoke, “He’s been in there for awhile. Is he okay?” “Does it a lot. He fine.” Zeta didn’t sound nearly as excited and lively as he had before. “Yes, probably won’t be out [...]
Hours passed and finally, Lexx left the back room. He didn’t know what to expect and was a little surprised to find the lights out. He stood in the door and looked around for the girl. Where was she now? What was she getting into? Was he going to have to be angry again? Lexx [...]
Chel dreamed. It hadn’t been hard for her to fall asleep, even in the strange surroundings.

Stealth was in her dreams, following her and saying all kinds of interesting things. Unfortunately, [...]
“It is our way to make sure even uninvited guests are made to feel comfortable. You may drink my Tilauh, Kasai, Mishan and Tarbil as well as eat my food and read my books, just don’t bother me when I’m busy. I have things to do and those things do not involve amusing humans.” Chel [...]
He sprung up from the chair and in a quick, somewhat jerky stride approached Stealth. The cat had just walked into the room and hopped up onto a counter on the opposite side of the room. Her ears went back and she stared at the wall indifferently as he stopped near her. “The next dice [...]
The portal swirled with activity, appearing as a brilliant flash of light within a forest and then bursting into existence with a bluish white glow. Lexx stepped through it first, consulting a small device with a display on it that showed their location. Zeta and Stealth were at his heels and Chel stepped through last. [...]
Bits of bark flew as Stealth came down the tree in that ungainly fashion that cats use. It wasn’t nearly as easy going up as coming down. She hit the ground in a run, turning to run around the tree and into the forest. “It’s up in a tree! The tallest one! Of course, it’s [...]
