Team Muse Adventures - Chapter 7

Encounter at Mizugiwa Beach The morning sun was rising over Mizugiwa Beach as the warm sea breeze rippled past the curtains in the window of Strider's beach house, making its way to the sleeping cyan hedgehog's nose. The salt air was a welcome scent to wake up to. Strider got out of bed, put his favorite shades on, and took a look out at the beautiful scenic beach. "Ace should be arriving soon", he thought, "so I'd better get that volleyball net set up outside. I know he's gonna want to practice when he's here." The sun was glistening off the rocks as he wandered down the path to the shoreline. "It's going to be a perfect day."Strider reac...

Breaking Convention Part Two: Second Chances Dodge had made it out the front entrance of the building by the time he heard Alexei's voice calling out to him. "Dodge! Hey, Dodge! Wait up!" Turning around, he saw his echidna friend running after him, waving his arms, and stopped in place so that Alexei could catch up. "Dodge, look…," said Alexei, panting a bit. "I'm really sorry for what happened in there, with my friends making you feel unwelcome. They usually know better than that.""It's alright," said Dodge. "You don't have any control over them. And it's not like it's the first time I've been rejected before."Alexei shook his head. "No, ...

Breaking Convention Part One: First Impressions The sun shone high in the sky as the Nereid approached the coast, gliding over the waves at a slow and steady pace. After over a week at sea, and a couple of stops, at last Team Muse was prepared to land on the mainland once more, and to make the final leg of their journey to Northamer— and hopefully to find Dodge."Avast!" exclaimed Alexei, standing at the helm and eagerly pointing off toward the horizon. "Land ho, off the starboard bow! All hands on deck! Look alive, me hearties!"Gogo just crossed his arms irately and sulked. "Would you cut it out with the nautical jargon, Alexei? Just becau...

This Must Be the País (Native Melody) Part Two: Burning Down the House [ Day 351, 3235 - My apologies for not writing again sooner. It's been over a week since my last entry. I have spent much of that time considering the problem confounding my friends and me, and I have at last, I think, arrived at a solution:If we cannot go west to get closer to Northamer due to the presence of the Felidae, then our only other option is north, across the sea. Therefore… we need a sea-worthy vessel. I've never built such a vessel before, but with my knowledge of engineering and classical mechanics, I should theoretically have all the training I need. I've...

This Must Be the País (Native Melody) Part One: Road to Nowhere [ Day 342, 3235 - Let's get this started with an introduction. My name is Alexei. I'm an echidna from Albion, I dabble in art and writing, and today… today is my 18th birthday. Happy birthday to me. It's as good a day as any to start keeping a journal, I suppose. I have my friend Julienne to thank for that. Back in Efrika, she decided that, as long as we were going to be traveling around Mobius, she should build up a collection of new recipes from everywhere we went. With Meera's help, she acquired a book with blank pages for herself, so she could keep track of them all. While...

Efrika Adventure Part Four: The Breath of Life " Non! " cried Julienne, as she was hauled off by Torque to be lashed to a rotisserie spit. "You… you cannot do this! This is non civilisé! It is sauvage! " But Julienne's pleas fell on deaf ears-- Torque tied up Julienne's hands and feet, and crammed an apple into her mouth."Quiet, dinner!" replied Torque, licking her lips hungrily. "You're gonna make a good main course." Torque and one of the other hyenas grabbed the spit at both ends and lifted it up over the firepit, then got to work with the arduous task of lighting up the fire.Meanwhile, with Deadpan watching from behind, Treadmarks h...

Efrika Adventure Part Three: The Absent King "Missing!" exclaimed Pronto. "How could somebody as prominent as the king go missing?""He just vanished," said Kabir. "About a week ago. He went to his bedchamber one night as usual, and the next morning… he was nowhere to be found. I've had everyone in his court looking all over for him. We've checked the entire castle, from top to bottom, and I sent several of our men out to scour the kingdom looking for him, but… we still do not know where he is.""That explains why there was no resistance from the king's men when the Nasty Hyenas invaded my village," said Pronto. "All of our warriors have gon...

Efrika Adventure Part Two: The Stolen Village As the desert sun was setting that evening, the hyena bikers raced across the hills of sand in a V formation, their hoverbikes noisily blasting up rooster-tails of displaced powder behind them. Toward the back of the pack, Alexei, Julienne and Gogo each sat facing backwards behind a different rider, their hands bound behind their backs with chains and their mouths gagged with their own headscarves. Eventually, as twilight fell, the sand of the desert was left behind, and the gang came upon a small village of vivid, multicolored adobe huts, adorned in tribal patterns and located on a grassy esca...

It's been a busy year.

0 min read

Wow, my last journal post was October of last year. Time for an update, then.Sorry for being silent so long. As the title of this journal entry says, it's been a very busy year, and a lot has happened since my last post. As I've mentioned here already, my father passed away about two years ago. After it happened, my mother and I both came to the realization that it made no sense for her to continue living in Florida without him (and Hurricane Irma definitely played a big role in her coming to that conclusion). So, as a result, most of the time I've been quiet has been devoted to helping her move from Florida to Washington to be with me, ...
