    Summary

    “You should get help,” Four noted as the bodyguard hissed in pain. “They say Manticore poison can kill in less than a minute. Probably closer to ten, with someone your size.”

    The bodyguard stopped to stare him down. Its gums pulled back into a smile before it laughed, blood coating its teeth. The man limped, as much as he could, back down the alley.

    He didn’t turn back to the plaza. Which can only mean he is more afraid of admitting someone got into the building. He can’t get any help going back inside.

    If the punishment is that severe for members, Four can only imagine what horrors await intruders.

    Summary

    The three week travel timeskip with more Ray and Goldy Pond character development!

    ...

    Ray grinded his teeth at the realization that this was the only course of action they had. If not then…

    Then Emma would die.

    Emma, with scraped knees and a chipped tooth smile against a face stained with freckles. Emma who still raced her siblings to breakfast and pretended to lose. Emma, staying up for hours to learn the morse code in Minerva’s books, falling asleep in the library. Emma with burn marks on her calloused hands. Emma, auburn hair stained with blood, the smoldering house behind them still not quite burning as much as the determination in her eyes.

    Emma who got into fights knew she couldn’t win if there was even a chance of saving someone. Emma, promising to strangers she had never even met, that they would all get out of this hunting ground alive.

    I don’t care what it takes, Ray vowed as Emma grew colder by the second, so unlike sunlit days dragging him from the shade, with warm smiles and soft blankets and bitter tea and old books.

    I won’t let that happen again.

    I’m not going to let you die!

    Summary

    So Colleen had resigned herself to her fate. The pieces of herself with Sam and Matt had been lost to the stars, never to be seen again. But no matter how shattered and broken it had become, Colleen still fought to keep the piece of herself that Katie had. But Colleen was a hypocrite and it was too late to save them now.

    Summary

    “But you… all of you…still have to deal with me not being who you want…or need…” Emma mumbled, throat closed up and turned on her side away from him. Ray scooted closer, arm falling over Emma to pull her closer.

    “There are worse things to deal with,” Ray murmured.

    Summary

    Emma only knows that she would become another bittersweet story that they can’t tell without crying.

    Maybe she already is.

    “At the end of the day it's a rock to make you feel better. It’s empty and it always will be.” Emma repeated.

    “That means there's room for roots,” If Oliver recognized the bitterness in Emma’s tone he didn’t say anything about it. “You can’t fill something until it’s empty.”

    The only difference between a coffin and a door was who entered it.

    Summary

    And then Emma found herself questioning how much more of herself would she need to forget to get them to laugh a little louder. How much of herself she would change to get them to smile a little wider. It horrified her, just how willing she was to destroy everything she’d ever been to please them. ‘How much more do they need from me?’ somewhere along the line became ‘how much more do they want?’

    The person she had built out of nothing over these past two years seemed so insignificant now. The girl who had dealt with lonely nights all alone with no idea of who she had been or would ever be. The curiosity she had cultivated from somewhere in the remains of her soul, the determination she had dragged back from the depths of her mind— all of that work to make herself into someone she could be proud of meant nothing. Because Emma loved those strangers that were supposed to be her family more than herself and it was terrifying.

    Summary

    They were talking about him like he wasn’t even there. Like he wasn’t even a person. Like he was ground to be walked on. Dirt to be grinded under their heels. Less than an ant.

    Zack spat on Bayon’s shoes before could even think to stop himself. The silence was deafening as the monsters looked him in the eye for the first time. Their own eyes, preserved behind their masks, widened in disbelief— and then glee.

    Summary

    “They don’t think of you any differently because you’re smart,” Ray said, resisting the urge to shake Norman by the shoulders until he understood. “They’d love you no matter what test scores you got because you’re their brother, Norman! And no matter how good or bad you are at anything that’s not gonna change!”

    Norman blinked at the earnesty in his tone for a moment before smiling at him. Ray could have imagined it— but he looked a little sad.

    Summary

    Ben should say something. He should be able to say something, anything, to his Dad. It’s the goodbye he deserves. But Ben can’t help but think none of this is right. It will never be right again. His Dad will never hold him with unmarred hands again and it’s all Ben’s fault. Lily is never going to hug that unicorn stuffed animal she’s had since she was born and it’s all his fault. Mom is never going to hang those vintage photos she’s had in her family for generations over the mantle again and it’s all his fault.

    Neither of them are going to get the goodbye they want and it’s all Ben’s fault. Nothing is going to go back to the way it was and there’s nothing either of them can do about it.

    Summary

    Alphonse’s ears were red with frostbite, golden hair frosted at the tips and falling over his eyes. The wind nipped at his running nose. He could feel his whole skull chattering against his teeth. His toes were already numb as he stretched, trying to encourage feeling back into them, still wrapped in thick wool socks and secured beneath the laces of his boots. He was still relearning how to tie his shoes, Winry’s old gloves soft against his fingers as he redid the knots.

    Even shivering and drenched in snow with bones aching from exertion, Alphonse had never been happier to have the ability to feel absolutely miserable. Every painful moment was better than the sounds of grating metal against the plating of an armor he would never have to see again. No more echoes of a hollow body, only the crunch of his own feet against the snow.

    Summary

    Taylor was used to telling her Mom everything was gonna be okay. She was used to a smile that didn’t reach eyes that looked so much like her own, nodding and accepting the lie because the truth was more painful.

    Taylor had to lie.

    But Aiden deserved the truth.

    Summary

    Alphonse woke up, but he was sure he was still dreaming. He was eleven years old, but apparently he had been eleven for far too long. The world tilted, spinning off its axis as Al realized his family had grown up without him.

    Summary

    Phil’s eyes drift back to the paper, a signature reading Lucas sitting right next to the one he can’t identify as Ray comes to his other side, touching the paper like it was a precious artifact, trailing his finger along the message.

    “His name was Yuugo,” Ray says in barely a whisper, but his smile seems more genuine to Phil. “It says, I can’t wait to meet you.”

    Even with their survival constantly in danger, they still thought of him. He wondered if it mattered that he had thought of them too. It was ironic that in all his life he had never gotten any letters from his siblings. Even if they never grew up, he now has something to remember the ones who did.

    Summary

    Keith knows this is his reality now. This is his life and nothing is going to change that. Maybe he was always meant to be here in a place where bloodshed was second nature. Maybe violence did run in his veins, given to him by someone he had never known. Maybe it would be easier to forget dark eyes and deep laughs and rough, calloused hands in his hair tucking him in after falling asleep watching the stars. But it’s all he has left other than the scar on a face that looks too much like his father’s.

    But Keith has never been one to take the easy way out.

    And he’s not going to start now.

    Summary

    Conny’s face stretched into a smile, accepting Yvette’s goodbye drawing like Ray had just given her an irreplaceable gift and not a colored pencil sketch. It could have been made of gold and it still wouldn’t be worth the last gift Conny would ever get from her family.

    And here Ray was, trying to take the first gift she had ever gotten away.

    Summary

    Zeytrix looked to the rooftops, the communication center for the planet looming above her with purple lights constantly flickering. The Galra towers cast shadows above her as she ducked behind alleys, frantically looking behind, ear perked for the scratch of metal on stone. It felt like a cage, dark purple metal splitting the image of the open sky now stained with smog and disgusting clouds of pollution. Every time her feet hit the bare ground she could feel the agony of something long gone… But she could also feel the hunger.

    Now Zeytrix stands at the mouth of the cave entrance and feels a dread seeping into her bones. It had changed. They all had. Where there was once a call of peace was now wariness as if the tunnels themselves would swallow her if she ventured too far down. Their Balmera had died. That’s what they all had said. It wouldn’t accept the energy offered anymore after the Witch had come, purple lightning splitting the sky at the seams as it had given a final howl of pain. The sound still echoed in her ears, even now, running past the metal poles of steel holding the rock upright. They were living in a corpse now, she knew. Corpses didn’t demand from the living… But this one did.

    Summary

    Keith has never really like his birthday. Or anyone’s birthday. Or, as a matter of fact, any birthdays in general. At all. Maybe there was a time, long ago, deep in the back of his mind when he can picture dripping wax and candles, itchy party hats he was forced to wear and strong hands ruffling his hair with stubble and icing stuck to a face that looked just like his with dark eyes and a scar across his brow. Then he accepted an extended hand and got a horrible cake in the back of his throat that burned on the way down because he was too damn stubborn to say no to his brother and his awful cooking. But other than those happy moments he would never have again he just couldn’t force himself to be excited on a day he probably should be.

    Summary

    “Are you insinuating,” Keith bites out through gritted teeth. “That the Blade of Marmora aren’t trustworthy enough?”

    “I’d have a problem with any organization of trained killers with questionable intentions towards their ‘valued’ members regardless of if they were Galra or not.” Pidge says calmly, oblivious to his inner turmoil, but assuring him all the same.

    “I don’t give two shits about how useful they are if you are the cost. No one treats my friend like that and gets away with it, not without serious consequences.”
