Stand Alone(Summers and AHeartlessNobody)

Serix listened to Cassie’s story in silence, taking in her every word. He knew the virus his people created had been gruesome, but he never knew exactly what it did to humans. To think that it transformed them from intelligent beings into mindless beasts made his stomach turn. He could only imagine how frightening it must have been to see your friends and family change like that, only to go on living in fear of when it was your turn to catch the Plague. What a terrible way to go. He held Cassie tighter as she went on to describe the deaths of her parents. He had already known they were gone, but to hear her talk about it out loud sent a knife through his heart. They died because his people were too selfish and stubborn to cooperate with the humans. Even though it wasn’t his fault, the thought made him feel guilty. Cassie’s next words only served to further depress him. She had had to witness her only remaining family member catch the virus and slowly lose his mind. Even worse, she had had to kill him with her own two hands. She had been through so much, and it was all the Lunairans’ fault. He wished he could turn back the clocks and do something to stop the higher powers from sending the Plague, but he had only been a child at the time. Even if he could go back, there was nothing he could have done to prevent anything. “I’m sorry,” Serix murmured, kissing her lightly on the forehead. “It looks like we’ve both suffered from this invasion, but… at least we found each other, right? That has to count for something.”

Stay with Me (Summer and Heartless)

The girl startled when Destrian approached her. Her cat was much more eager to greet him. It jumped down from her shoulder and nuzzled his leg affectionately. He laughed and knelt down to pet the animal. Its fondness of him was amusing. If only the aristocrats could be so innocent, rather than always having ulterior motives when they tried to win him over. Wouldn’t that be something? “It… seems we have met again,” the girl spoke up. She sounded nervous. “And… what are you doing out here in the woods again, Your Highness? Oh, I… um… mean Destrian?” “My men and I had good luck in this area when we hunted yesterday,” Destrian replied as he picked up the girl’s cat and stood up, cradling it in his arms. “I thought it might be worth our time to try again. With the ball coming up, we need as much venison as we can get…” He paused and tilted his head slightly. “Oh, but you don’t know about that.” Part of Destrian felt a sense of relief. The fact that this girl was so set apart from the gossip about him in the kingdom was nice. Still, he decided he ought to tell her about the ball since he had already brought it up. No point in being vague. “My father is throwing a ball in two days,” Destrian said, stepping over to return the cat to its owner. “He’s trying to… improve relations with the neighboring kingdoms, so members of the other royal families have all been invited. I think he’s making this into a bigger deal than it needs to be, but my father has always been a bit eccentric when it comes to foreign relations. He loves to impress the neighbors.” He laughed again and then paused as another thought came to him. “You know, we could use a talented singer such as yourself. The King already has a small band of musicians, but I believe he has yet to choose a vocalist. You could have a chance to see the palace.” Destrian’s voice took on a luring tone. “Of course, we would pay you handsomely for your services, and there will be plenty of guards. I can assure you that you will be perfectly safe. Your mother would be fine with that, wouldn’t she?”

Curse of the Shadow [Jones Sparrow + Summer]

Danielle (Danny) Moreau Age: 22 Short Background: Danny always wanted to travel cross-country. She had been making plans for the trip since she was in middle school. Now, finally, she had completed college and put enough money aside to realize her dreams and journey from the west coast in California to the east coast in Virginia. And so, she wasted no time in preparing her bags and filling up her tank to make the long drive across America. Everything was going smoothly until Danny came to a small town in southern Indiana. The place didn't show up on her GPS, so she hadn't been expecting to see it on the drive. Curious, Danny decided to stay and spend the night at a cheap hotel and continue her trip in the morning. During the night, she continued to see movement in the corner of her eye as though someone was standing in the shadows, but whenever she turned to look directly at the figure, it disappeared. If it had happened only once, Danny would have written it off as her imagination, but she saw the shadow seven times. Unnerved, Danny was eager to leave in the morning. That was when she discovered something else: All roads led back to the town. Somehow, she was trapped with no way to get out and no way to contact anyone outside of its borders. Other: Danny sings and plays the ukulele to make some extra cash on the streets during her trip.

Another Natasha(Summer and Heartless)

Jun packed his things and stood up from his desk as the class ended. It had been an especially grueling day of English, and he was exhausted. He would never understand why the language had so many exceptions to its rules. It was impossible to keep track of which words followed what. Still, he felt like he had done well on his exam. Apart from two unusually complicated sentences, he was sure he had translated the paragraphs accurately. In any case, he would find out how he ranked next week. Jun stifled a yawn as he ambled down the hallway. He still had some studying to do for his Business and Commerce class, so he headed for the library. As usual, the room was filled with students working on various projects and reading for their classes. He managed to find an empty seat near a window in the corner and sat down to work. He had only spent about thirty minutes going through his lecture notes when his cell phone went off. It buzzed against the wooden table, earning Jun a furious glare from a nearby student. He dipped his head in an apologetic bow towards the boy, and then checked to read the new message. It was from his friend, Koji. Meet me by the tower at 9:30 Jun checked the time. It was 8:46 at the moment, so he could finish up his studies first. He stared at the cryptic text message for a moment longer before he put his phone away. He wasn’t surprised that Koji didn’t give him any details. He always loved to surprise Jun with spontaneous plans, whether or not he would enjoy them. His surprises never caused any harm, so it wouldn’t hurt to humor his friend one more time, right? -- “You’re late,” Koji frowned at Jun in mock offense and tapped his watch with a finger. “It’s 9:37.” “I showed up, didn’t I?” Jun rolled his eyes. “True,” Koji shrugged and wrapped an arm around Jun’s shoulders, guiding him down the road. “Come on, then. The others are waiting for us at the bar.” “Wait,” it was Jun’s turn to frown. He slowed his step. “A bar? You know I don’t drink, Koji.” “Oh come on,” Koji let out an exasperated sigh. “Live a little. You’re young, and the world is your oyster. You can’t stay in your safety box forever, Jun. Besides, it’s not like I’m asking you to get wasted.” “I guess so,” Jun said uncomfortably. “Fine, I’ll go with you.” “Ah, look at that,” Koji grinned and tousled Jun’s hair in a fatherly manner. “My boy’s growing up.” -- “One more over here!” Koji called out to the bartender. He downed another shot of gin while the others cheered him on. Jun closed his eyes, trying to stop the room from swaying. He hated alcohol. He never had a high tolerance for the stuff, and he was already feeling severely tipsy. He disliked feeling out of control like this, but the slowness wouldn’t go away. Someone clapped him on the shoulder and he opened one eye to see Kenta’s mischievous grin. His friend’s face was almost as flushed as Koji’s was. “Hey, Jun,” Kenta said in a voice low with melodrama. “We’re gonna take this party somewhere more fun.” “I can’t imagine a place more exciting than this,” Jun drawled. He shook his head. The alcohol was making his mind hazy. He didn’t feel like his regular self. Had he always been this sarcastic? He suddenly couldn’t remember. “Oh, you just wait and see,” Kenta’s grin widened and he grabbed Jun’s arm, lifting him to his feet. He dragged him towards the door where Koji was leading the others out to the street. Jun staggered drunkenly, leaning heavily on Kenta’s shoulder. He didn’t recognize this area. Koji was guiding the group down a dark alleyway that opened up again on an empty road. On the other side was a row of old buildings. Most of them looked abandoned, but one had windows that were lit with a dim red glow. Koji glanced back at Jun and smiled wryly. He was planning something. Jun knew he should have been wary, but he just smiled back. Curse that incessant drunken fog. The group stopped outside the door of the red-windowed building and Koji stepped forward to make an exaggerated announcement, “Men, behold. I have brought you here today to celebrate my good friend, Jun.” He swept his hand out dramatically and the others hollered their approval. Jun just swayed on his feet. “Tonight, I have deemed him ready to take his next step into manhood. Tonight, he will sleep with his first woman.” What is he going on about? Jun’s unease returned. Koji went on: “I’ve even done him the courtesy of reserving a beautiful American girl, since we all know how he wants to get involved with foreigners.” He paused while the others laughed. “Oh, and I went ahead and made reservations for the rest of us with the other girls as well. You can thank me later.” The others hollered again and Koji opened the door for everyone to come inside. The low-light had a strange effect on Jun’s eyes. Everything was washed in red. It made him even more disoriented than before, and he could only stand and watch as Koji approached a well-dressed man at the back of the room. The two exchanged words for a moment and his friend offered the man what looked like a large sum of money. Afterwards, the man gestured towards a door at the back of the room and exited through a different door off to the right. Koji came back to the group and approached Jun with his ever-present grin, “After you.” He held out a hand towards the back door. “Your innocent beauty awaits.” Jun hesitated. This didn’t feel like a good idea. The whole atmosphere of the building made him uncomfortable. It seemed so… dark and secretive; not at all the kind of place he would want to sleep with a woman. But… maybe it wouldn’t be so bad. It was just one night, after all. He made his way to the door. On the other side, there was a narrow, red-washed hallway with three doors on either side. Five of them were labeled with different titles. Jun racked his brain to remember what Koji said. Innocent beauty, right? That was the title on the farthest door on the left. That must be the room Koji had reserved for him. Jun opened the door and stepped inside. The room was lit in red, like everywhere else in the building. The only piece of furniture was a bed, and on top of that bed was a girl. Jun stared at her for a moment, his depressed mind processing her features slowly. She was a beautiful Caucasian girl, with blonde hair and blue eyes, and she was wearing an elaborate kimono. He wondered if that was Koji’s idea. His friend was always poking fun at his traditionalism. Jun stood in the doorway. He suddenly realized he had no idea what to do. Was he supposed to get right to business or talk to her first? A flush rose to his cheeks that had nothing to do with his intoxication. He swayed against the doorframe and cleared his throat awkwardly. “So… how does this work?” Jun’s words were slightly slurred. He frowned. The girl was American, so she probably didn’t understand his question. He attempted to repeat it in English, but he couldn’t remember the grammar. His sentences came out broken: “How this go? You do something? Or me?”

Hirose, Junichi (Jun) Age: 21 Home country: Japan Short Background: Jun is an aspiring business student with dreams to become a foreign relations ambassador. He always considered himself an upstanding student at his university, and was known among his peers for never getting into trouble. This was likely the reason why his friends brought him out drinking one night, ending their fun with a trip to a brothel. They wanted to put an end to his reputation of being a goody two-shoes before he completed his schooling because, after all, everyone had to have at least one sleazy story during their college years, right? And so, Jun was convinced in his drunken state to lie with a prostitute.
