Misha Nova

The Faithful, North African and Middle Eastern Islamic nations, are plotting to seize the oil resources of the Middle East. By controlling the earth's oil and its major trade routes, they plan to bring the world to its knees. Then, when the entire world is kneeling, the Faithful of Allah will read to them from the Koran, preaching the message of Islam, the True Faith. The Faithful will stop at nothing to achieve their goal. But how far will they go? And how many lives will it cost?

My muse has convinced me...that lack of comments de-motivates her. Her whip is put away, and she is pouting.So please, tell me what you like, hate, or are ambivalent about. Tell me I suck. But please, write responses.( I mean really, nothing written in response to a villain idea so old and cliched it has been made into a sy fy movie of the week...multiple times?)

Save small furry creatures from the wrath of the voices in my head.

Thank you.

Drustina and her companions complete their 'tour of inspection' to ascertain the general preparedness of the Saxons and Mercians to combat the Norse threat. Finally they return to Winchester to witness the marriage of Ethelred the Wessex king to Sonala the Mercian Princess.

Well here we are again; Standard disclaimers apply ( I don't know you, or the people you know, how am I supposed to be imitating them?) This one got finished pretty fast. Happy reading.

Masks Chapter 27

*Before…

I think it helps he can really actually dance some too, he’s not as self-conscious. I’m having a really good time too and then something happens.

M.J. looks at me. “C’mon lets go to the bathroom.”

And Amber and Toni and Becky are going with us and I stop at the door…oh…oh this is big.

And scary.

I’m freezing up because dressing and dancing is one thing this, this is something else altogether.

*And Now…
