"SERIOUSLY?" Natt's voice echoed through the trees, "_This_ is what you bring me at 2 AM for?"

Hunter smirked, "Relax. It's just a little adventure." he spread his hands as if to show a cinematic panorama, "You and me against the unknown."

It all started with the old cars hiding in the woods. Theo wasn’t supposed to be in the woods. His mum liked to say that the monsters would get him if he went there. But Theo liked to explore. Monsters be damned. Plus he had Wilkie his teddy with him. One of Wilkie’s ears was torn, and the lustre of his brown coat had faded some. But what did you expect, thought Theo. That’s what you got when ...

It all started with the old cars hidden in the woods. Charlie Mi was the one who’d found them, said he

He said he'd found them on a random Sunday afternoon while wandering around Shadowbrook with nothing to do.

“It’s just down this way for a bit longer,” Charlie said. There was a slight crack to his voice, for just a split second. The confidence that he had when we entered Shadowbrook was gone,...

_January 4th, 1963. Somewhere Woods._

_'There's an old car in the woods that seems to be related to the case you're tracking. Why don't ya' go investigate it? Huh? Could give you some new information on whatever you were doing in the first place.'_

Cicadas chirping breaks the silence of the area that was currently occupied by an individual. The individual scoffs a bit, a frown dusting their face ...

“Weirdest case I’ve ever done,” muttered Talon as he read over the file he’d been given earlier that day.

He read about all of the cars in the woods, and how they had been there for over a decade, some even more.

The young detective was on his way to Garhound National Park, a trail that led through a deep patch of woods in a giant valley.

“Snap out of it,”

The clap of Sienna’s manicured hands calls me back to reality. Like miniature bells, the tips of her rings clink against one another, jagged-cut jade and silver chiming before me.

I blink, breaking out of my daze with a deft rub over my eyes. “Yeah. Right. Sorry.”

“Where is your head at?” Sienna laughs, taking a long sip from her Solo cup. She tosses a few of her jewel-woven br...

“I’M THE KING OF THE WORLD!”

The king of the world - also known as Sam - or Samuel, as his mother called him when he was in trouble - was balanced precariously atop the cabin of a rusted out truck, his body arched, his arms raised to the brilliant blue sky above as his voice carried on the wind to nowhere in particular. He was all of nine, and with his best friend Rory beside him he was in his el...
