Shyu angled his face downward, hoping his glasses hid his expression in just a way that told all passers-by, “Please don’t talk to me.” It seemed to be working. He held out a book and watched several pairs of expressive-looking shoes shuffle by on the marble floor without even pausing at him. Shyu tried to … Continue reading
Eight years later… In real life, Mica was in class. In her mind, she was speeding well over 100 miles per hour on her motorcycle, cutting off a pair of crooks, complete with black and white striped jailbird getups. Oh, sure, they’d try to get away. But one taste of her expert driving paired with … Continue reading
Rina’s school was pretty diverse. Especially if you considered the location. The Grand Council of Firebenders sat right in the center of Sunport. And the city itself sat only a few miles from the massive–albeit dormant–volcano said to be the home of an ancient dragon. No one was saying other benders couldn’t live here. It … Continue reading
a/n: Welcome to the third and final installment of the Powers Saga trilogy. The illustrator for this story is the amazing Carla Howes. Thanks for reading! —- Who would have thought babies cried so much? Not that Bolin wasn’t expecting crying. He had read and re-read all the parenting books he and Tenna bought at … Continue reading

Three years later… The screening room was packed. Not that Korra was surprised — this was a special occasion. Not only was it the mover finale, there were some very important guests in the audience. Varrick had taken special care to ensure the royal family, his mover stars, and their friends, got the best seats … Continue reading
The code worked exactly as Eagon had said it would. Really, there was no reason that Izumi should have been surprised. She sent her troops in with strict orders not to get aggressive with the combustionbenders. When Tenna shared with them that Eli had been killed, they took no grief in the event. There was … Continue reading
Izumi had once again changed out of her Firelord robes and back into commoner clothing. It did feel more comfortable, though of course, it meant more danger. As she pulled the crown from her head and carefully laid it on its stand in her room, she heard a light tapping. The door swung open without … Continue reading
“Pike! Please, don’t go!” Fuse hated how frightened she sounded. Like the day she had first arrived. Part of her knew she was too old for that childishness. She was ten now. A forged weapon.
