Kyt leaps from the floor, the low artificial gravity allowing her to float nearly a quarter of the way up the curved wall. It looks like she’s about to crash into the wall, but instead she lands gently on all limbs, finding finger and toe holes between the innumerable screens.
Low gravity, big leaps…

“What’s that behind you, archmagus?” the airship captain says with a predatory glint in her maniacal eyes. “Is that Bria? Heh. The naughty faery girl?” Bria hisses. A heartbeat later, Titus stands on Bergman’s shoulders, hackles up, hissing. I step between Bergman and my family. “Leave Bria alone.”
You better leave her family alone…

Mauve and I cruise the oval hallway stopping at the door to our cabin, Berth 101 reads the placard half a foot above a rectangular key card reader. My pulse quickens at the sight of a black feline sitting pressed against the door. Even the sleeper stirs, perturbed. “Why is that here?” I point at the black cat staring at me with startling yellow eyes. Mauve bends down and gently pets the cat. “It’s only Titus.”
Allison and Titus don't mix…

In my peripheral vision, I glimpse the watery maelstrom we fall toward. A shipbreaking wave, as dark as night, highlighted with splintering whitecaps, rises. When that wrathful hand of Poseidon brushes my skin, I release the dragon, thrashing my body up and away from the watery barrow.
Beware the ocean…!

I tell Dalia about the plan. Her face turns stormy at the mention of Gore and Jett. Like me, her history with both of them is fraught. “That isn’t good. They’ll both have their own agendas. You can’t trust them.” I sigh. “I know. Can we talk about something else? I have a feeling I’ll be rehashing all this for Haji.” “Promise me you won’t trust them, especially Jett.” “I promise.” I raise my pinky so Dalia can see it. “Pinky swear.” “Don’t break it,” Dalia says seriously, then fills me in on all the happenings at good old Cascadia Prep High School.
Don't trust anyone…!

Joe’s agonized scream stops me in my tracks. The terrible scent of burning skin joins the noisome stench permitting the air. Joe writhes as Gore presses one finger into the agent’s right cheek, twisting it back and forth like he’s putting out a cigarette. “Stay back!” Gore pulls Joe closer to him and withdraws the scorching digit. “Any more fight out of you, I’ll barbecue your entire face.”
Beware the scorching digit…!
