Ahmity reached out and created a ball of light in his hand sending it down past Jack and into the cave. He called out to Jack, __t will move as you command.__ack frowned feeling a bit ridiculous talking to a ball of light and said, __o three feet inside the cave and hover._ The ball floated quickly to the cave entrance and past the rushing water to hover just inside the cave entrance. __ove further in another 5 feet._ There was a large shadow to the right. __ove right 10 feet._ Jack commanded and the ball floated into a side tunnel and disappeared. Jack said, __eturn to Ahmity.__he ball slowly accompanied Jack back up the cliff. When he reached the top Ahmity helped him up over the edge and waited for his report. Jack wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, __ could see a tunnel in the side of the cave about 10 feet inside the entrance. It__ large enough for the trolls pass through.__hmity shook his head and said, __f the trolls traveled back to the Netherworld from here then it__ possible the beasts escaped the same way.__ack sighed and glanced back at the school then said, __ell there__ no way to know for sure unless we take a short trip down a black hole.__oming soon--Vengeance's Fire

There is a word I have always avoided in my writing, my life, my thoughts. That word is love. What does it mean? How do you deal with it? If you find it and lose it, how do you get over it? Love is something you feel and when you feel it you can__ trust it or define it. How can you sustain love for a long time? A short time? You may love your family, your friends. But you don__ invite them inside your body.

So much better for you to long for what you can never have, than to get it and have to face the reality of it. I assure you, when you realize the reality of this situation, there wont be a hole deep enough for you to climb into to hide the mortification you're going to feel. - Eric to Camile in Pawn of Innocence.

Feeling drunk with the anticipation of being alone in the elevator with the blonde seductress, Jack turned back and flashed a wicked grin at Todd before disappearing down the hall."I__ Shala. I was also hoping we'd have a private moment together, before your adventure begins._ She spoke softly and slipped her hand into the crook of Jack's arm."Shala, you read my mind," Jack replied as they reached the elevator. "After Dr. Strong and I talk, how about you show me the sights of Landon.""The most exciting thing in Landon is in my suite._ Shala whispered and leaned hard against him, forcing his back to the wall. Shala__ hands explored Jacks chest then moved to his sides and round to his back sinking lower. Her fiery smile sent an unexpected chill through him. Jack squirmed uncomfortably as he glanced up at the panel above the elevator doors. The second floor indicator lit and held. The doors silently slid aside to reveal a large banquet hall just as Shala's hands reached a sensitive spot.

Never confuse lust for anything other than what it is. There isn't a man alive that wouldn't gladly take what you are so willing to offer.""Any but you, apparently." -Eric to Camile, Pawn of Innocence

Impressive deduction,_ Ryan murmured. __ou certainly look deeper than most._ He brushed back a strand of my hair, and I screwed my eyes shut. He was doing this on purpose. __ut let me give you some advice._ His lips were right next to my ear. __ wouldn__ peer too far. Even the clearest window can cast back your own reflection.

See? Nothing to it.""I see all right," Carly said, her tone full of awe. She gaped at him."What?""Um...""Jesus, Carly, what is it?" He spun around to make sure there wasn't something behind him that would justify her reaction and the look of impressed astonishment on her face."You... Maybe the current was a little faster than you thought."He followed the direction of her gaze and discovered he had lost his boxers. He snickered. She giggled. They both burst into laughter, and Justin flushed a little.

Fiction means never letting the pure truth get in the way of a good story.

At last, somebody in line steps forward. __ can commit,_ he says. He__ a tall, lean young man with a rifle slung over his back.__hat__ your name?_ Chris asks. __ndrew,_ he replies. __nd I__ in.__hris nods. A few other guys step forward and, after a few moments, the entire crowd of ex-POWs takes one step, signifying their decision. My chest swells with pride _ pride for Chris__ leadership, pride for the people willing to give their lives to take down Omega. It__ a rush.

I'm going to be a fairy._ Sarah announced, studying her file."What a surprise._ Nicole mumbled, closing the door.

Her pulse raced, pounding in her ears above the howling wind. A wave of dizziness crashed over her with the rapid flood of adrenaline. She gasped in a breath. __on__ let go.

Agent Smith, a lady is never late, everyone is simply early._ I said back, paraphrasing something I saw on a 20/20 special. __ell, a lady isn__ exactly what they are expecting.

You__e covered in blood again.___ really am._ __hy are you always covered in blood when I wake up after being unconscious?_ __sually for the same reason you were unconscious, I think.

In the space of a breath he had crossed the distance separating them and spun her around into a vise grip from behind. Somehow, the gun was out of her hand and in his. He locked her arms between them and raised the gun to her temple. His voice resonated low and dangerous at her ear. __ust so we__e very clear. If I want to kill you, I can kill you.

It takes wisdom to know when you've had enough, strength to make the decision and determination to see it through.

Now, Mr. Antonio. I understand that there are people who are close to you who want me dead.___o, mija. They don__ want you dead.___hen explain this._ I handed him the picture.He chuckled again.__o, they don__ want you dead. That would be too easy. They want revenge.__old sweat broke out all over me, but I kept my face calm. I looked at him straight in the eye.__ell, then they are going to be quite disappointed, aren__ they?_ I flashed my teeth at him.__enorita, you might want to warn Senor Smith, you see, my nephew he doesn__ like to share, and if he sees another man after you, he__l get very, eh, aggressive._ The silver fox looked at me and winked.__h, he won__ have to worry._ I said as I was walking out the door. __ doubt he will be alive long enough to know Agent Smith.__hen I slammed the door.

In sum, every pore of his being oozed one thing_okay, FINE. Every pore oozed two things. The first was irrelevant. The second was dangerous.

Who am I?" She whispered. Alex opened his mouth as if to correct her, but then he said, "You are my love.
