As my murderer's claws tear into my abdomen inch by inch, my father and brother are seated in our family's banquet hall. They're celebrating Carly's 18th birthday and coming-of-age.
"You'll always be my little girl."
"Happy birthday, Carly."
They light 18 pink candles for her. On top of the exquisite red velvet cake is a wolf figurine that they carved for her, and there are well wishes and laughter all around.
Meanwhile, I'm curled up in a sewer filled with liquid silver as I bleed to death. My phone has been crushed, and I can't get out. I can only cry for help.
A few days later, my father and brother show up together at the autopsy room.
My brother stands by the operating table with a scalpel. He slices open the body and sews it back up like it's nothing. My father just covers his nose as he shoots a disgusted glance at my body. He urges my brother to hurry up with the autopsy report.
"The victim is a young female wolf presumed to be of pure lineage. Before her death, she was subjected to prolonged captivity and torture. Her throat is nearly severed, her cervical spine is dislocated, and her chest cavity has collapsed. She was also injected with liquid silver before death."
Hearing the report, my father looks so calm that it's just like a case study of no consequence.
Neither of them can recognize that the body belongs to me—their daughter and sister!
SHADOW” is about Liam Remmick and his adventures in seeking revenge. His father, Steve Nazar abandoned the mother when she was still pregnant. After the death of his mother he lived from one orphanage to another until he was thrown out to fend for himself. Because no other orphanage agreed to take him in, mostly because of his sadist character, he lives in a cave eating whatever he finds. Most times he would steal food and fruits from vendors—he would be caught, beaten to a pulp and the food he stole would be taken from him. He would go home empty handed with nothing but a bruised face and a few broken bones and swollen eyes.
When he’s not stealing fruits he’s either hunting for game or mushroom. On a faithful day when he came home to his cave after a sunny day of getting nothing, he noticed someone was in his cave and after having a short squabble with the stranger—as usual Liam is good at picking fights but rarely wins any. The strange figure introduces himself as Seth, Liam’s Uncle. Liam recognised his face from the picture his mother would always look at if she missed home. Seth is Liam’s mother’s baby brother. That day is the first day Liam is meeting him or any of his relatives. Seth has been looking for him after he heard his sister died, he was close to giving up when he finally stumbles on a cave to rest and tend to his wounds only for him to meet his nephew living like a caveman. He takes him home to the Shadow Realm—is the home of people with the ability to control Shadows, Liam’s father was from there but he deserted the place.
I was a child who was born in a vocational school's toilet. To my mom, I was a stain in her life that she was given birth to after having her cherry popped by a delinquent when she was still young.
I knew that Mom had been trying to kill me. Unfortunately, she hadn't succeeded so far.
The first time she tried to get rid of me was when she decided to give birth to me in the toilet. It was a cold, winter month, yet she didn't give me anything warm to wear.
The second time she attempted murder was when she got into grad school, which was based in the north. No one was around to take care of me, so she turned on the gas while holding me in her arms and clutching her train ticket.
The third and last time happened when Mom was about to marry the man she loved.
On the night before her wedding, she had tears streaming down her cheeks as she told me, "You're nothing but a burden. You ruined my life!
"Do you know that I can only forget about all the pain and suffering you caused me after you die? Only then can I start a brand new chapter in my life!"
I wiped Mom's tears off her face with my tiny hand.
So, her wish was for me to die.
On my birthday, my fever hit 104 degrees Fahrenheit. That was when I finally received the first slice of birthday cake in my entire life.
I didn't have the heart to eat it, so I made my wish solemnly.
"I hope that I will die soon."
I heard that birthday wishes often came true. That way, Mom would be very happy.
My wife, Heather Conner, secretly steals the funds I've saved up for our daughter, Naomi Hartman's surgery. After that, she books a high-class hotel for Jared Winters, the low-income student she has been sponsoring, just so she can celebrate his birthday with him.
When I find out about it, I demand that Heather return all the money to me. But she slaps me immediately and blames me and Naomi for causing her trouble on purpose.
"This is the first birthday Jared and I are celebrating together! Since it's such a big day, it's only natural that I hold it in a grand and lavish manner!
"Instead, you two insist on undergoing that stupid surgery just when I've booked the hotel instead of scheduling it at any other time! You really are vile!
"I've already inquired with the doctor about the surgery. Turns out it's completely optional! I might as well put the money to good use by giving Jared an unforgettable birthday instead of having you waste it on a useless surgery!
"Even if Naomi does end up dying, that means she's fated to die anyway! You can't blame anyone for her death!"
Heather just abandons Naomi, who's still fighting for her life. She then drives Jared to the hotel, where they spend the night watching a beautiful fireworks display.
With 12 critical notices issued by the doctor in my hand, I kneel before Monica Brown, the richest woman in the city.
"I'm willing to marry into your family as long as you pay me 35 thousand dollars' worth of wedding gifts!"
A phoenix is a soulless creature with immortality and resurrection or life after death. It has a mortal mate who is in possession of the blue flame, and when that flame connects with the red flame carried by the phoenix, it creates a crystal ball-like structure filled with the energy of yin and yang.
When that crystal ball finally enters the body of Phoebe she will become a deity with divine power, but that process is only available to a person blessed with the power of the Phoenix. And if she foolishly decides to become human, the next phoenix will be doomed to a curse that will awaken after its thousandth year of life.

The first Sonic cartoon, 'Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog,' blasted onto TV screens in 1993, and I’ve got a soft spot for its chaotic energy. It was pure Saturday morning madness—Sonic and Tails zipping around, Robotnik’s over-the-top schemes, and that weirdly catchy theme song. I rewatched clips recently, and it’s cheesier than I remembered, but the nostalgia hit hard. Funny how something so janky still feels iconic.
Back then, Sonic was everywhere—games, merch, even cereal. The cartoon leaned into his 'tude, with puns flying faster than his spin dash. It wasn’t deep, but it nailed the vibe: speed, sass, and Robotnik’s glorious hamminess. Later shows like 'Sonic X' polished things up, but this was the raw, unfiltered start.
Sonic's birthday is celebrated on June 23. This day marks the release of his first game, 'Sonic the Hedgehog', back in 1991. It's really fun to join in the fandom festivities every year, whether it's through fan art, special gaming events, or just reminiscing about my first experience with this speedy blue guy! The thrill of running through those loops never gets old. I might even replay the classics on that day to relive those old memories!
