    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura


    [open]  Not All That Glitters Is Gold [Jack]
    #8
    Jack frantically scans the area, his heart racing as the shadows close in against him. His eyes widen in horror as he sees his beloved Aurora and their twin foals lying lifeless on the ground. Zain's red eyes glare out from the shadows, and Jack looks up to see him standing over his family.

    Tears stream down Jack's face as he drops to his knees, desperately nudging his loved ones in a futile attempt to wake them from their eternal slumber. "Please don't leave me... I love you," he sobs, his body shaking with grief. "I need you..."

    As he licks Aurora and the two dead foals, Jack feels a sense of overwhelming despair wash over him. He cannot bear the thought of losing them forever.
    Aurora's body suddenly shifts against his own trembling form, reassuring him that everything is okay and that it's not real. The shadows begin to recede back into the forest, and Jack slowly realizes that Aurora and the twins are in fact alive.

    He lets out a soft whimper, finally able to catch his breath as the whispers vanish. "I'm okay," he says, his voice barely above a whisper. "What was that?"
