What is Mere Mortals? Coming Soon: Mere Mortals. And no matter what, I always knew he would be there to bail me out. At least that’s how it had always worked before. But what happened when it didn’t? What happened when the entire Light Brigade–yes, Sir Solstice, Lady Peace, Mysteria, Bellerophon and the Scorpyon–all of them, were gone? But their bad guys didn’t go away. Coming Soon: Mere Mortals, a ficblog by C.E. Grayson. February 6, 2008. Comments: Leave a comment. Ep 10: Bright Catacomb.

What is Mere Mortals? Ep 10: Bright Catacomb. I just stood there, feeling the tip of the barrel against my head. I knew I should be running, should be pushing Marisol down, trying to get away, to at least survive the next few seconds, but what was I going to do, really? I couldn’t believe this woman was actually going to kill me, and if she was, well, maybe this wonky alien watch would come through with another force field, or some other way to protect me. Well, that and the smell. We did, Spectros said&...

What is Mere Mortals? Ep 01: Green Fire and Cold Skin. As I ran for the fire, I shook my wrist to feel the familiar weight of the watch my big brother had given me for my eighteenth birthday. But that was only the smallest part of how drastically his life had recently changed, not that I knew about any of that yet. He took a step back from me to get a good look, and gave a quick nod of approval. Before we leave, I wanted to give you something, he said. But This is so sudden. Just open it, asswipe. I did ...

What is Mere Mortals? Ep 07 – Messenger. A pool of slick, purple-black blood formed around Alice’s feet, and I couldn’t stop looking at it, watching how the color was leeching into the bottoms of Alice’s shoes, which had at one point in the distant past been white. I guess it was better than looking at the source of the blood, that gently-glowing severed head Alice was holding in her hands. Everyone else just stood there, silent. Everyone but Michael. He left Alice’s side and went to the table. B...But P...

What is Mere Mortals? Ep 06 – Threshhold. S face was calm, though still infused with violet light. I couldn’t believe the serenity there, if she really meant what she’d just said. You know where they are? I think, she said. My tracking spell returned, and it brought back a result. And Derek prodded her. Where are they? At The Well, she replied. They’re at The Well. That’s impossible, Derek said. I checked The Well, no one was there. Did you actually go inside and look with your eyes? I had to admit, the ...

What is Mere Mortals? Ep 04: Hope of the Doomed. Derek’s bullets exploded the bone-white heads of the little demonlings that were hopping up and down on my chest. This type of thing was happening a lot tonight, I realized with not a little chagrin. Limp bodies fell off of me, scattering to both sides. I backed away, on heels and palms and elbows, until the back of my head slammed against the door. Laura was in front of me, her progress blocked by my legs, which I had pulled up against my chest. Hanging o...

Interlude 1 – Sunset | Mere Mortals

What is Mere Mortals? Interlude 1 – Sunset. She was always surprised at how spare Trent’s office was. It was huge it took up one quarter of the TrenTech building’s top floor but there was nothing in it, really, not even a family photo on the desk, that represented the man her boss really was. It was all chrome and glass. All function. Awards on the wall, but no mementos. She hadn’t felt like this about anyone for a long time. But she had to snap out of it. She really couldn’t go until she found out i...
