Orphanage || Story Time || Part 3

Fern went straight to the adoption apartment of the orphanage to get Iva in anyway possible. Her hands were trembling as she saw the exact woman smiling at her who had attacked her in her dream. The woman was the principal. Her name, Agnes Crowell, made Fern shudder. "Yes? What do you want?" She spoke in an authoritative tone. Though she was smiling, her words were stern. "I-Iva...I want to adopt her." Fern replied. The principal made a face but quickly forced a smile, "Sure. Right this way." The principal took her to another office. Soon Fern found herself filling forms. One after another. Then they kept telling her to submit them to different offices. It was relentless. She stayed busy for a long time. Once she was finally done, she was told that she would get a reply in a week. She was annoyed, but went home. As she sat on her couch and looked at her phone, she saw several emails from her work. Her boss had sent her an email saying that they are cutting...

Orphanage || Story Time || Part 2

Fern decided to ignore it all and get to her daily routine.  When she went out of her apartment to get to her job, she found the exact same little girl she had seen in her dream. Her jaw dropped as she just stared at the girl. She looked exactly the same, except she looked happy, unlike in her dream. Fern felt uneasy as a thought came into her mind. What if that dream showed her future? Fern quickly shook her head and went past the little girl who was still playing with her doll. Fern kept thinking about it the whole day. She couldn't focus on her work at all. Usually, she would have called it a coincidence and ignored it, but the girl and the man had been coming for 36 nights in her dreams already, and then suddenly the girl appeared in front of her apartment. It was too much for it to be brushed off as a coincidence. On her way back home, she bought a few sweets to give to the little girl, in the hope that she might talk to her and figure out what was going on. A road was closed ...

Orphanage || Story Time || Part 1

 A man woke up in an abandoned office. It looked old, but one could tell that at some point it was very luxurious. He felt two more presences beside him. Both gave strong emotions of fear and sadness. The man was lying on a big desk. He sat up to find his legs pinned to the desk by a lot of vines. The floor of the room was filled with them. They were keeping everything in its place, including him.  He tugged at them, freed himself, and fell down the desk. He groaned, but before he could complain properly about it, he looked down and gasped. Right beneath him was a thick, big block of ice which was fitted so well inside the floor that it seemed to be a part of it. There was someone frozen inside it. He could see that it was a young woman, but he didn't recognize her. She seemed to be sleeping, but from her expression, he could tell that it wasn't peaceful. Out of nowhere, the vines started to move. They wrapped around him and pulled him to the other side of the desk. Right befo...

 Kenneth and his three friends stood outside Camp Cider Hills. They were all very excited to get here. They had all been waiting to come here for weeks, but soon they learned that this year they couldn't repair the bridge, and almost everything was closed off. They went in anyway in hopes that it would still be fine, but they found nothing to do. They decided to leave the camp asap, but none of their parents were free, and they had to stay the night.  In the night, they all sat down watching other kids play with old-style toys. They weren't impressed by these things and wanted the thrill they came there for. "I am getting so boreeeeeddddddd!!!!" Jack said with a whine. Kenneth smiled as Jack whined about his boredom and said, "Come on, guys. We are four people. We can find something fun to do. We are leaving tomorrow anyway. I doubt they would be mad even if we do a little damage. They ripped us off with fake advertisements anyway!" "Woah! If Kenneth is...

Stars - Part 8

Eliot was sitting in front of a camera that was recording him. Aaron was sitting by the camera with James. He was extremely restless, and James was annoying him to no end. James knew the limits, how he could bend things, and when he couldn't. Earlier, he had been quick to arrest Eliot, but now he wanted to record whatever Eliot had to say, then decide whether to go to Gray or not. Aaron tried to calm himself as Eliot began to speak: "Gray is my closest friend. He knows everything about me, and I trust him completely...but he's not right in the head. He always liked blood,... and hamsters! God! The things he used to do with them. I knew he was cruel, but he was always extra nice to me.  "It was tolerable since he never hurt humans....but then he gave me teeth as a gift. He was super proud. I don't know why he thought I would love it, but I hated it. Recently, he stopped giving me those as gifts-" Aaron interrupted, "How long has it been? When did he give ...

Stars - Part 7

Aaron didn't waste any time and made a deal with Lucas for teeth. If Lucas were any older, he would have become suspicious of Aaron's readiness, but luck has been really on Aaron's side.  Lucas had no idea what the big deal with teeth was. His whole focus was on money. Probably his first adventure. Aaron paid quite a lot for the teeth. Luckily, Lucas brought the whole cup for Aaron, so nothing was missing. Aaron went straight to the police station after meeting Lucas in an empty parking lot. It was only the second day since he officially took the case, but he realized how useful it was. He could get these teeth checked by forensics to know for sure if they were real. He handed those teeth to the forensics team.  James had been keeping an eye on Aaron. He showed up and watched the team testing the teeth in a rush. The case was of high priority, so everyone quickly started to run the tests on the teeth. "Are those real teeth you told me about? Related to Mr. Manner?...

Stars - Part 6

James, Aaron's police friend, was holding the notes Aaron had been taking on the Star-Killer. Aaron, on the other hand, had his head held down in shame and was fidgeting with his fingers. The police were still going through his apartment for more notes. He had already told everything to James. He had no choice since he was caught anyway, and the only way to keep the trust the police had in him was to tell the truth without hiding anything. James sighed and spoke, "If he wanted you to find him alone, and killed a person to keep you from getting a chance to talk to us, then why did he challenge you like this in public with his message?" The long silence before this question, while everyone stared at Aaron in disappointment, had given him enough time to know the answer to this question. He sighed and spoke quietly. "I changed my route that day. If I hadn't done that, I would have been the first person to find that message along with his heinous deed. He knew I would...
