12:13 PM, Thursday, December 17th “Ugh! Caroline, this is NOT what I signed up for!”Caroline’s muffled reply came from under the large wooden desk, likely original to the old school. “They aren’t my texts, Madeline.”A just-too-loud metal ting leapt out from under the desk like a cat in an alley. Madeline startled, then slunk deeper into the empty secretary’s office, ducking just behind the drawn window shade of the heavy wooden door.“I’ve got the key. Do you want to leave?

Weekly Contest #316

Star Command, this is Captain Travis, I have Zurg’s ship in my crosshairs.We read you, Captain, you’re our only hope! James, cover my back! The cockpit erupted with flashing reds lights and blaring alarms. James, do you read me, James? No use; his wing man wasn’t there. He took the yoke and started dodging the lasers! Then a blast rocked his fighter and the boy’s body was jerked sideways. He hit the ground hard. Wood chips clung to his arms; his yellow mask lay limp in the playground mulch.

"Emily has her appointment with the agency today and I'm not going to take Sofia. So, you'll need to take her too.""No, I know. It'll be fine. The Jacksons will have Travis.
