I rolled to my feet, feeling energized. My fires burned hot in me, fueling my limbs. I moved quicker and felt stronger as I whirled around. My hair fl...shed by, glowing bright red, shining with my power.“What are you, red?” growled the troll. He stood over me, his woody body looking unharmed, the wounds I had dealt having regenerated.“Pyrriah, twin sister of Kurtis and daughter of Las!” I growled.“A demigoddess?” The troll slashed in hard blows. “You'll still bleed!”I danced back as the ram-dao. As things wound down Anne asked us back to her hotel room for drinks I didn't really want to go but Ron said come on man couple drinks it's still early, we ended up there what I didn't know was that much of the family was staying in that hotel including Jim's mom & dad. We ended up in the room with Anne when someone knocked on the door it was Andrea Jim's mom coming over to see her sister. I've known Andrea since I was a young boy growing up with Jim, she came in and joined us for a drink I. Joe pulled himself out of bed. The first thing he noticed, as he stretched, was the note taped to the mirror. Attached to the note were a couple of pictures that had been cut from a lingerie catalogue.The note read, "Lover, I missed you as I got dressed this morning, especially knowing I will be watching the seminar today with nothing to do. So, while I'm there I will be thinking about you. And about the things we will be doing to each other when I get home. I'm wearing what you see in this. I think they're gone, Dad," Chester observed."Pleeeeease go..." Simon whispered, sounding a bit desperate."...Daddy's ssss-sssoooo sick..."But Chester simply went to another chair in the room and quietly,stubbornly sat there. He figured if he went quiet, Simon wouldeventually pull aside the covers and reveal what was wrong with him.Eventually, the moans and the shaking of the covers gave way to the morequiet breathing of a deep sleep. Chester tried to keep from nodding offhimself as he.
