SLOANE After five years in a Las Vegas ER, I came home to Rapid Junction with one goal: learn how to relax again. Apparently, my little brother’s definition of relaxing is getting me blindfolded in a barn full of Halloween decorations and convincing me to try something called the Monster Room. Fine.

Then the stranger puts his hands on me, and somehow, in the dark, I forget to be careful. For the first time in years, I’m not thinking about what could go wrong. I’m ...

PORTAL MAINTENANCE: FER SAL This is the 2nd Edition with I hope all the issues cleared up. Thank You Look, if you are looking for a serious, grimdark fantasy about a "Chosen One" fulfilling an ancient prophecy, I am not your author.

“I am afraid of the dark, and this fear is gaining power over me with every moment I spend in the cellar. My stepmother is perfectly aware of this fear; I even used a nightlight to go to sleep when I lived upstairs. If she wanted to punish me, click, off it would go, leaving me to cry in the dark.

In this cellar I have an abundance of fears to choose from, be it the creations of my own mind or the reality of where I am.” It began with the purchase of an ...

Child abuse is never an acceptable thing in a civilized society, but sometimes social mores in certain localities are more accepting of deviant behavior, especially in more rural communities. Identification of abuse in small towns is often more difficult because in close-knit communities people don't want to 'cause problems' with the 'neighbors' even if they suspect improper things are going on. Thankfully, our nation's laws are becoming much stricter in that regard, especially where law enforcement is concerned. Officials are being held to higher standards when it comes to reporting and ...
