Excerpt from: Samantha and the Magazine Editor

“Anyway I will be in Beverley Hills tomorrow night! See you then girlfriend.”

 

‘Hopefully I’ll have WOOHP mission,’ Sam thought. “Bye!” she said. ‘That’s it! I’ll contact Jerry!’ she decided.

 

 

“I see,” Jerry said over her commpowder. “I’ll look into what WOOHP may have on her.”

 

“Thanks, Jer!” Sam said, before closing the commpowder.

Excerpt from: In Bombadil’s House

Pippa followed last as Tom lead her and her friends down a short passage and around a sharp turn. She saw that four mattresses, piled with white blankets, had been laid on the floor. She also saw that there were four washbasins along the opposite wall.

 

 

It wasn’t long before the Hobbits returned to the table. They sat two on each side, with Tom and Goldberry at the ends. They found that there was no lack of food. The drinks were like water, yet set free their voices.

 

“A fair evening in the Shire!” Pippa began.

 

“As dwarves arrived two by two!” Frida added.

 

“Bilba found that she was drawn into an unexpected adventure!” Pippa Added.

 

“Gandalf had found the dwarves a burglar.”

Excerpt from: Spider Quinn

“What’s the problem?”

 

“I might forget and It’ll be a shock,” Feli answered.

 

“Oh. Then have some kind of notes. That’ll help you remember.”

 

“That’s a good idea.”

 

“I’ll be going then,” SpiderGirl said.

 

“Wait!”

 

“What now?”

 

“One more time?” Feli asked. She had liked the other two times SpiderGirl had carried her across Lawndale.

 

“Why not?” SpiderGirl asked. “Where?”

 

“Home. 326 Eichler Street,” Feli answered.

 

 

SpiderGirl wondered why that address was familiar. She quickly found the reason. That Feli was Stacy’s neighbor! ‘Great!’ she thought as she approached the house from over the street. She set Feli down in her backyard. “Three days in a row…” she considered.

 

“I won’t be asking tomorrow, nor over the Holidays,” Anna said.

 

“Good,” SpiderGirl said. “I’ll see you another time.” She then swung away towards Stacy’s front yard.

 

 

“Quinn?” Stacy asked as she answered the door.

 

“Sorry I haven’t caught up this week,” Quinn said.

 

“That’s fine,” Stacy said. “Like mentoring other students is important.”

 

“It is, but it shouldn’t be at the expense of existing friends.”

 

“Of course.”

 

“And I can spend time with you this afternoon,” Quinn said.

 

 

And so, the two friends caught up as they watched a couple episodes of Sailor Moon.
