《First Bite》40.

Ali walked back to her farm house, the jittery nervous energy she felt while dealing with the horned rabbits that were infecting her farm was substantial but that feeling eventually faded leaving her to work on an actual way to deal with them.
Nothing came to her mind that didn't involve calling her new friends in London but before Ali could make her mind up to call or not, Mary ran out the farm house door waving the phone in the air.
"You got the loan approval, your solicitor is on the way to finish up the paperwork."
"Congrats, you're now the proud owner of two farms. One's bed and breakfast, while the other is haunted, guess which one I'm moving too. "
Ali stood still with a silly grin on her face, with so many strange things happening a good piece of normal news was a welcome change.
Her neighbor who was selling their farm was a widow who couldn't maintain everything and just wanted to live close to her grandchildren.
Their farm was a perfect expansion for the apple orchard and brewery, keeping the bed and breakfast open would also work, giving people a chance to visit and sample the alcoholic beverages made on site.
Shawn and Bryan more so Shawn, had been allowed to start planting apple and plum trees even a field of blue berries and strawberries had been planned for with nearly four acres to work with minus the pond there was room for more.
"I tried calling animal control, it seems that the receptionist is one of Bryan's exes."
"So no help?"
"So no help."
"Did she ask for me?"
"Shut up Bryan!!"

The Strigoi Mort that had finally gotten a new body caught a glance of the they woman who killed the body he now used, he wasn't clear on the proper way to respond, maybe flowers for the gift and then kill her or burn down her house for the joy of it then kill her maybe?

"Choices, choices, choices..."
He looked at one of the Jackalopes that still seemed to be herding him back away from people, which seemed silly to him, he liked people.
He could drink them all up.
Literally.
The Jackalopes looked at him with red eyes, the larger ones now arriving to block his path.
"I like fire, I think of it as an inheritance. It's a sickness this body had attached to it long before, I made it mine." He said while walking around the edge of the trees, still keeping an eye on the woman and her house he wanted so badly to burn.
"Fine, we will do it your way. I'll go back and rest then I'll leave this place but I'll leave a gift before I go. This is fair, yes?"
Visions of a burning farm danced in the Strigoi Mort's head, he then began dancing amongst through jackalopes as he twisted and twirled through the apple trees.

Thaellis A Kingdom Down Under
A kingdom down under, once it had prospered, expanded, built, and conquered until all that they thought of worth was theirs. Peace ruled for a time the people absorbed in their own self-satisfaction. But eventually, old urges returned. Conquest called, though this time there was no outside outlet to turn it towards. So in ages so long and distant the memories most couldn’t recall, the kingdom turned upon itself. War raged for many years, no one coming close to being considered a victor, it appeared that this self-destruction would go on till nothing was left. Many if given the chance would have claimed that would have been a mercy for this kingdom and its people. For as they killed, and butchered each other over things they already had. Vibrations traveled through rock and stone guiding things best left alone. Creatures came things of horror armed to the teeth with claws, fangs, and armor. Cities fell and were consumed not even the bones of individuals remained, for these creatures hunger knew no limits, had no end. The kingdom rallied together once more, what was left, they fought and fought but their Nightmare had no end. Their greatest, brightest minds worked their magic, carved into stone. Wards they called them, this would keep their Nightmares away. They abandoned attempts to fight and focused on walling every surface of the kingdom with these Wards. It worked mostly, an illusion of peace returned, one that crumbled often, but it was better than before, it was a bearable hell now. So here we start our story as ages have passed for a walled-off kingdom, hunted by a never-ending Nightmare. With a poor but deserving soul born into this world.

Twoen
The struggle for an interesting game has been the story of my life for quite some time. Every game I find is either too easy, not interesting or too short. Luckily, my two brothers who match my level of skill, albeit in different areas, tend to spice things up. When I look at my older brother I have no idea how he gets anything done when he's such an idiot. Still it doesn't detract from my respect for him as a gamer, though maybe a little. When I look at my younger brother I marvel at the monster that my older brother and I created. Deadliness, craftiness and quiet, both in what he does and how he is. When it's just us three we tend to destory everything in our path. So normally we tend to compete rather than team. Although that isn't to say we're just good as individuals. When we work together our effectiveness multiplies rather than lowering. Well enough about us dorks. Anyway a new VR game came out, apparently in development for quite some time. Of course my older brother decided to drive out and buy three copies. What would this one be missing? Difficulty? Depth? Length? In any case I plan to reach the top before my brothers do. It was a competition after all. Twoen had all three things I normally yearn for in spades. Something I did not foresee. A keeper
