    Okay um wow THANK YOU for leaving such a glowing review! :veelove: No worries on getting behind--it means a lot that you decided to read and catch up! Ha, I looked back at where I posted this story on Serebii and after I posted Chapter 16 at the fic's 4th anniversary, you speculated that the...

    Hi all! Here's the next chapter. It's also quite a short one. Enjoy! Chapter 35 The crystal waters of Sootopolis lay stretched out below Steven. The surface was deceptively calm. He held the ancient slab in his hands, his heart racing. Several members of the Pokemon League stood around him...

    Here's chapter 34! Apologies it's a week and a day late--my life is going through big adjustments, but I hope to continue to keep up with the weekly schedule for a bit longer! Chapter 34 “Tabitha.” At the sound of Maxie’s voice, he looked up. Tabitha had taken Courtney into the storage...

    As promised, here's Chapter 33! I still need to do some proofing and editing on Chapter 34, but it should be ready by next Friday. Chapter 33 Trees and scrub brush were no more than green blurs beneath them as the helicopter flew over the craggy land. Standing by the control panel near the...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 32

    Hi all, here's this week's chapter! I hope you enjoy. Chapter 32 Derek met Maressa again later that evening. He hadn’t seen her parents—he wasn’t sure he wanted to, and Maressa made it sound like a bad idea. “It’s non-stop interrogation,” she told him as she wolfed down some spaghetti. “...

    Heya, here's the next chapter! Enjoy! Chapter 31 Beep. Maressa wearily lifted her eyelids. Bright lights hung from a white ceiling. Panic suddenly overwhelmed her—she jerked her head around. She lay in a white bed with an IV tube connected to her arm. Several other lines ran from her body...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 30

    Hi all, here's chapter 30! Fun fact: it's the shortest chapter in the fic! I hope you enjoy. Chapter 30 Derek took in a deep, shaky breath. The waves of the ocean raced up the sandy shore. To his right, the sand gave way to rocky jetties and cliffs. The waters raged as they dashed against...

    Threadmarks: Chapter 29

    I was without my personal computer last week, so it's a week late, but here is chapter 29! Chapter 29 Spires of ocean rock rose up all around him, covered with aquatic plants and coral. They eventually gave way to craggy cliffs covered with crustose coralline algae that formed underwater...

    Hey everyone! Here's the next chapter. I'm travelling next weekend so chapter 29 might be a few days late. Enjoy! Chapter 28 Heat radiated from the cavern walls. Derek tugged at his shirt, trying to vent himself. Even though he wasn’t wearing his old Team Magma uniform with thick fabric...

    Hi everyone! I am slowly recovering from the typhoon (I have power, but water is temporary and only lasts a few hours before it sputters and dies). In the meanwhile, here is chapter 27! I hope you enjoy. Chapter 27 Waves calmly lapped the small stone outcrop. The sky grew dim as night...

    Hi all! Apologies this is a week late; a storm took out power and water on most of my island for the last week. We're still recovering, but here's chapter 26! Chapter 26 The helicopter flew onwards, the wind beating loudly on its metal walls. Pure darkness surrounded Maressa. Blood caked...

    Hi everyone! Apologies for my delay--life got super hectic. Last week especially, since I defended my master's thesis, so I had to sum up all of the work I'd been doing for the past three years. And this past week I just turned in my manuscript. Hopefully things are slowing down a bit and I can...

    Here's chapter 23! I should have enough chapters to keep this pace going for a while. Enjoy! Chapter 23 “What’s up, Tabs?” Tabitha raised his head as Courtney and her Ninetales walked in. “Would it kill you to knock?” “Oh, come on, it’s not like there’s anything secret here.” “It’s my...

    Hi all! As promised, here's the next chapter! Chapter 22 Tabitha rewound the video. The black-and-white zig-zags flickered before his eyes—he stopped the video, set it to half-speed, and played it. An empty hallway with an open door filled the camera frame. Slowly, a deluge of black smoke...

    All RIGHT! It's been *checks post* 11 months since I last posted a chapter. I actually have several chapters that are ready to be posted--I can only blame myself for procrastinating and not wanting to post anything until it's all perfect. But! That'll never happen, so I figured now is as good of...

    Hi, all! I decided to kickstart things by posting a chapter. I'm hoping to do quite a bit of editing and start putting out more content (emphasis on *hope*, since I'm still going through quite a bit). As always, thanks to everyone who stops by, and ESPECIALLY thank you to all who leave reviews...
