“Come on,” I beckoned, “The only way out is up.”
I reached out to open the giant metal door. Just when I was about to push-
“Vahl!”
I spun around at the urgent sound of Miraak’s voice. My heart dropped instantly. Lydia, who had fallen behind, was doubling over into a kneeling position out of agony. Without hesitation, I sprinted over to help. But I never reached her. When I was only a few feet away, Miraak had grabbed me by my shoulders and pulled me back.
“Vahl! No! Wait!” he demanded.
I didn’t listen. I squirmed and tugged as hard as I could, but with no effect. He was stronger than I was and continued to pull me backward. My eyes never left he horrendous sight of Lydia. She was on the ground now, struggling to push herself to her feet. The sound of her coughing was gut wrenching. For a brief moment she looked up and made eye contact with me. It was only then that I noticed my vision was becoming blurry from tears.
“Lydia. Stay with me…” I nearly moaned.
Somehow I had ended up on the ground. We were at eye level with one another, but still about ten feet away. Miraak never let go of my shoulders. His grip never even seemed to relax. He knew what would happen if he let me go. He knew that I would go to her, and in coming in contact with her I would be infected.
There was a long moment of silence except for Lydia’s awful coughing and wheezing. At last, I couldn’t take it anymore.
“Lydia, listen to me,” I barked, my voice shaky and filled with tears,” look at me, Lydia. You will not die. Do you hear me? You are not allowed to die. Not like this.” The only answer was more coughing. “Don’t just think of me, think of Poet. Or think of Sofie and Ma’isha. They need you too, Lydia. I need your help. You are not going to die.” I choked on the last few words. “I won’t have it.”
She was still kneeling and wheezing. For a few seconds, no one said anything. Then, she managed to lift her head so that she was looking directly at me.
“Y… yes, my thane…”
All I could do was watch as she slowly and shakily pushed herself to her feet.

I'm Sorry. She's Gone. A Fallout Tale Short
(EDIT: I somehow missed that I lost several lines of Timebomb's dialogue near the end. I need to proofread these things. Anyways. I felt it was a very important part to the end.)
"Cywren, Cywren, Cywren can you hear me!" I screamed desperately at her collapsed body through the glass. "Please don't die on me." My voise going into a whimper. " Not like this. Not like this!" I pounded against the glass desperately. My fists bleeding and the glass cracked. " Timebomb..." Sarah's voice leaked into my head. " I'm sorry Timebomb. She's gone." I looked up at her. Her eyes showed both pity and anxiety. "No." I said looking into her eyes. NO! Cywren c

Acachalla and Friend Part 1: It's a Tuesday
Outside a floating bike stalked about the house. The Acachallas were all stranded in the house and were going mad...not that was unusual anyhow. Papa was in the living room trying to watch a college football game. Gertrude was making waffles for Sally who had JUST eaten breakfast. Billy was playing with his gravity gun. He kept putting boxes of paper into the closet, then hiding inside.
A half-hour passed by and things began getting heated. Billy had stolen the TV remote while Papa was asleep in the chair. He had hidden in the garage, but forgot to get the key and locked himself in. He was closer to the outside.......closer to Maxwell....clo

Goodbye Cywren
"Um, Cywren?" I called to her. she looked down from the ridge, and waved at me. She was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. her short orange hair was tied up in her usual messy looking bun. She was wearing the first outfit I had ever seen her in: a vault tech lab coat. It used to belong to one of her best friends, Jonas, before he died helping her father escape vault 101. Her eyes sparkled with Intelligence and, despite everything she had been through. From deathclaws to cannibals. Being abducted by aliens, and forced into slavery. Forced out of her home, the place she had known her entire life, and when she came back, she was shunned b
