《START | ANTONIO DAWSON》1 | on-call
Advertisement
"Ambulance 61, gunshot victim, 342 West Street."
Phoebe and Sylvie both groaned when they heard the alarm. They had just gotten back from another call and hoped to get something to eat before another call came through, clearly that wasn't happening. The both walked over to the ambulance and began driving to the scene. When they got there, they grabbed their equipment. The guy had been shot in the shoulder and the leg, luckily for them, both wounds were through and through.
They tried to stop the bleeding before rolling him into the ambulance. Sylvie drove while Phoebe checked the gunshot wounds.
Suddenly the guy grabbed her wrist, "Don't let them get away with it. I can't lose my family." Before Phoebe could rely, the ambulance stopped at the hospital and Sylvie opened the door.
"Everything alright?" She asked when she noticed Phoebe had completely frozen up. Phoebe soon snapped out of her trance and nodded before getting out of the ambulance.
"Male, two GSW's through and through. We managed to stop the bleeding but he needs a blood transfusion," Sylvie rushed as they got the man into the Trauma Room.
"What's wrong?" Sylvie asked as they stood by the nurses station, waiting for word on their victim. Sylvie could see how it affected her and wanted to make sure she got the closure she needed. However, before Phoebe could reply, Antonio and another gentlemen walked over to them.
"Sylvie, Phoebe, this is my Sergeant Hank Voight. Hank, this is Phoebe and Sylvie, the paramedics that brought our victim in," Antonio introduced but didn't take his eyes off Phoebe.
Hank nodded, "What can you both tell me about him?"
"He had two GSW's, both through and through. Lost quite a bit of blood but he's going to be fine. He was alone at the scene, we just assumed they left him to die," Sylvie explained.

Phoebe frowned as she continued, "We loaded him into ambulance and I stopped the bleeding in his shoulder and gave him morphine. But he grabbed my wrist and told me 'Don't let them get away with it. I can't lose my family'. I have no idea what it meant but he went into shook soon after." Sylvie could not understand why the case hit Phoebe harder than she thought. Antonio looked at the brunette and couldn't help but want to comfort her.
Hank nodded, "Thank you both. We'll do everything we can to solve this. The whole teaming is working the case."
"Is there any chance you could keep us updated?"
Antonio nodded, "Well let you know what happens once the case is over." He knew he couldn't give them any details about the actual case but that didn't mean he didn't want them to worry.
Both females nodded and began walking out of the ER as they still had a job to do. But they didn't get far as Antonio stopped Phoebe. Sylvie smiled at them both before walking over to the ambulance.
"What can I do for you detective?"
Antonio smiled, "I was wondering if you would accompany me for a drink at Molly's tonight?" To say he was nervous was an understatement. Phoebe made him feel like a hormonal teenager again.
"I would love to. But I did promise your sister I would let her introduce me to some of her friends," Phoebe explained. She liked Antonio. He was a good guy and from what Gabby had told her, troubled.
"That's fine. I'll see you tonight?"
"Most certainly detective."

Familiar In Chains
Familiar: A magical beast of one type or another which forms a magical bond with a mage who possesses a similar magical trait. Thus entering into a master-servant contract. Due to their abilities as a familiar, they possess all of the intelligence and knowledge of a human alongside the instincts and nature of a beast. Sourced From: My First Familiar Assigned text for third-year mages For young mages, obtaining their first familiar is a momentous occasion. Their magic forms a symbiotic relationship with their bonded mage, amplifying their's strengths and covering for their weaknesses. Often the strength of one's familiar is a key factor in how far a mage will go in their career. They are considered a necessity in the Empire of Afaron and the surrounding nations. Once familiars were caught in the wild and brought back for training and bonding. Eventually, however, the wild magic beasts were hunted to the point that they could no longer be found. Those that had been bred domestically would often produce magicless offspring. Nowadays the mages of Afaron know nothing of how familiars are bred, raised, and tamed. Once every three years, the Order of Beast Tamers come down from their mountain strongholds with caravans loaded with familiars purchased by noble families and magic academies. The Beast Tamer's generosity hides a dark truth. If you can't find a magic beast, make one. (Warning: Mild Nudity)

blacklight
So here’s the deal: my name is Kihri Vyas, and I’m dead. (That’s not really important, it happened ages ago, but it’s good to have the context.) Anyway, me and my sister Zarah (the only person who can see or hear me) have basically been on our own since I kicked the bucket, surviving on the streets of Kaila and sort of just being miserable and bored and tired a lot. I mean, I haven’t, cause I’m dead, but she has. It sucks, but that’s business as usual for us. What isn’t B-A-U is that a bunch of other homeless folks have been disappearing in the last few months, and some of them have been turning up with anatomically-improbable, but extraordinary fatal, injuries. Cops don’t give a shit, of course, and my sister’s a boneheaded bleeding heart, so we’ve been investigating them ourselves. And, well, we’ve found a bunch of weird shit. Stuff made of solid light, ghost attack dogs, people glowing black, somehow, some kind of living robot… Actually, you know what? It’s probably easier if you see for yourself. blacklight is a modern fantasy story it's not about being gay but rest assured its gay as fuck nevertheless it updates fridays at 2 p.m. AEST on its own site at https://spectrochroma.wordpress.com/ Chapters are uploaded here one week after they finish on the main site.
