Dark Hunter (part 1)
Click, click, click. The claws of death himself dragged along the armrest of its chair. Many were intimidated; Orion was not. “You know why I have summoned you here?” Death asked.

Killer Cohort (part 2)
“Attention, all soldiers of the new regime!” Shouted a very angry-looking officer. His outfit was like the classic Zytoc military garb: heavy helmet, vest, and boots.

Dark Band Risen (part 3)

Though he had no fangs, Anthony had to guess this was Black Fang. “They have Read more
