Sanctified: Chapter 14- Bottom of the Food Chain

Reaching the outskirts of Portland was
No easy feat. Fosco’s dagger-tooth
Vibrated in his hand, he hadn’t dropped
     It since he used it to belly slice
     The spiky monster at the airport.
     Deep down in his bones, Fosco could sense
          That the tooth held great power and he
          Was chosen to wield against the beasts.
          But for good measure he equipped his
     Ragtag team of survivors with spikes
     And bones from the monsters he had slain.
     He wanted to be sure that any
Monster they ran into on their trek
Through the backroads of Portland they would
All have enough power to at least
     Take on the terrors awaiting them.
     “What do you think those things want?” The teen
     Girl asked as she walked next to Fosco.
          Fosco remained alert. “They’re devils
          Here to punish the world for its sins,”
          The man with the slicked back hair preached.
     “Bullshit,” Fosco scoffed, “They don’t care for
     Our crap. They’re here to reclaim the world
     At the top of the food chain.” “Where does
That leave you?” Asked the tall blonde man that
Jumped in front of them with a pistol.

Sanctified: Chapter 13- Full on Deadly

Dustin took the back roads for the next
Hour, making sure to avoid big
Areas where panicking drivers
Could cause a ruckus of terror and
Trouble. He knew how wild people could
     Get when the sky came tumbling down.
     “What do you think those things are,” he said.
     Sedequa shook her head and turned back
     To her sword in the back seat; was she
     Destined to battle those stoned creatures,
Did she have some ancient power to
Send them back from the hell they clawed out
Of? If she had the answer she would
Have probably still chosen to find her
Brother over hiding out till the
     Danger was over. She took a deep
     Breath and said, “I think they’re relics from
     Harsher times ready to reclaim a
     World damaged by humans. But to be
     Honest we’re probably not a blip
          On their radar.” Dustin laughed and said,
          “Well some of us. You gave a couple
          Of them something to fear.” Sedequa
          Smiled, almost ignoring the great
          Big wasp-built monster bust into the
Hood of Dustin’s car; a full on crash.

Sanctified: Chapter 1- The Letter

                                        January 3, 2019
Fossy, it’s been a long time. I bet
You’re surprised to be hearing from me
After all these years. I miss you.
I was watching the news yesterday
It was about those creature statues
    They found in the Congo Rainforest
    And that show popped into my head, the
    One about the gargoyles, it made
    Me think of you, when we were kids.
    A lot has happened in the last six years.
I’ve finally finished school and
I stuck to a major, you know I was
Never good at commitment. I just
Started a new job at a middle
School, working with at risk youth; trying
    To make a difference. I also got
    Back into church, yeah, I’m going to
    Church again. It’s been… a real blessing.
    I’m heading back home on the 9th. I
    Know I didn’t leave on good terms,
        I know what I did was far beyond
        Betrayal, and I have no excuse
        But I want to see my big brother.
        “When I am afraid, I will put my
        Trust in you.” -Psalm 56:3 Love
Always, Your little sister, Sedi
